Chapter 137: Following in Her Footsteps (1/2)
In the Long Clear Hall, an elder sighed to himself, ”He really defeated a Foundation Establishment disciple… and it's that disciple of Elder Zuo.”
The other sect elders could not help nodding in wonder when they heard this.
”He won against a Foundation Establishment cultivator at the Qi Refinement realm… and I don't see many injuries on his body. This kid really… has a strong body.”
”A body forged from body refinement can actually suppress the Dao Foundation. This is unprecedented.”
”There's also that chain. Its grade isn't low. Elder He really invested a lot in this disciple.”
”That's true… if such a disciple were to be given to me, I would be willing to pay a huge price as well.”
After seeing Jiang Li's first battle in the sky arena, it would be a lie to say that they were not surprised.
In the process of a cultivator's cultivation, every single realm represented a transformation of the body, and there was naturally a huge gap between it and the previous realm.
Wanting to cross realms to challenge others was definitely not as simple as just saying it.
Amongst the elders, the most smug person present was Jiang Li's master, the burly Elder He.
They saw Elder He walking towards the elder with a 'grim' expression on his face.
”Oh my, look at what happened. Junior Brother Zuo, I'm sorry. I'm really sorry. How did my disciple injure your disciple?”
Although Elder He said that he was sorry, his mouth was already grinning from ear to ear. Anyone who saw this would wish to punch him in the face.
He glanced and winked at Elder Zuo of the Law Enforcement Hall, causing the other party's face to turn green and white. The two of them nearly brawled on the spot.
However, none of the other elders stopped them. All of them held back their laughter as they watched the two of them tear each other apart.
Over the past hundreds of years, these two had always been like this. If they stopped fighting, everyone would find it strange.
Among the 12 inner sect Head Elders of the Scripture Storage Valley, including the Valley Master, Daoist Wushe, none of them were fellow disciples under a certain master.
In fact, when they were young, they did not even know each other.
These 12 Head Elders were basically all people who had experienced the establishment of the Scripture Storage Valley back then. They were members of the rogue cultivator alliance.
After that period, they understood the importance of unity better than anyone else.
After all, the Scripture Storage Valley was a sect that was born from rogue cultivators.
They could not have the master and disciple relationship of the Shu Mountain Five Elements Peak, where the five elements supported each other.
They were not from a clan like the Hundred Tempering Mountain who were related by marriage for generations.
Even Benevolent Travel Temple had a common faith and belief that they could not abandon.
However, there was nothing in the Scripture Storage Valley at that time. There were many internal conflicts and some rogue cultivators even had deep grudges.
At that time, other than the powerful guidance of the 11 founders, the reason why they stood together was because of external pressure.
It could be said that without the bullying of the other three sects back then, there would not be the Scripture Storage Valley of today.
Therefore, at the location where the Scripture Storage Valley was successfully established, the founders set this rule.
The twelve Head Elders of the inner sect of the Scripture Storage Valley had to set an example by supporting each other. They addressed each other as senior and junior brothers in order to achieve success and lead the sect to greater unity.
After more than 200 years, what they had done was indeed quite good.
