Chapter 145: A Grand Occasion in the Sect

Normally, Tong Jihua appeared to be kind and easygoing. It was rare to find any kind of sharpness in his aura.

However, when he mentioned the Blood Spear, at this very moment, it was as if he had become a sharp sword that struck fear in people’s hearts.

“Netherpassage Realm!”

Qin Lie cried out on the inside as he stared at the current Tong Jihua. There was fearful respect within his eyes.

Jiu Liuye, who had suddenly shown up at Ling Town and took away Ling Yushi and Ling Xuanxuan sisters, was also at the Netherpassage Realm. She was the valley master of Seven Fiends Valley’s Dark Fiend Valley and was someone who was on par with a person such as Dark Asura Hall’s hall master, Yuan Tianya.

Among Black Iron forces, a martial practitioner within the Netherpassage Realm could be counted as a top rank fighter.

Tong Jihua didn’t normally bare his fangs, but the moment he unleashed his aura, he actually revealed himself to be in Netherpassage Realm. This caused Qin Lie to have a clear recognition of Armament Sect—they truly were a Black Iron force!

Tong Jihua’s actions had caused Qin Lie to respect him a little more after knowing that he would not fear Dark Shadow Tower’s tower master and would take down Liang Shaoyang according to Armament Sect’s rules.

“Elder Tong!” The martial practitioner who left earlier abruptly appeared once more with utmost shock brimming in his eyes. He hurriedly yelled, “The plaza! The plaza…”

“What?” Tong Jihua frowned.

“The spirit pattern pillars have changed!” The person’s voice had even shivered slightly. “Liang Shaoyang is right beneath a spirit inscription pilar. It seems that he… he has caused a reaction in a spirit pattern pillar! Elder Tong, I believe you should have a look yourself!”

The moment the words were said, everyone’s expression changed. They rushed out of the cultivation room and towards the plaza almost in unison.

Qin Lie was also extremely shocked.

The twelve spirit pattern pillars in the plaza was the core of the foundation of Armament Sect. It was also the greatest proof of the talent of an Armament Sect disciple.

Any outer sect disciple who could cause a change in the spirit pattern pillars and understand the wonders of the designs of a spirit pattern pillar would immediately step foot into the inner sect and be treated with the utmost care by all sect masters and elders. They would be seen and raised as Armament Sect’s future and could waste Armament Sect’s spirit materials all they want.

For nine hundred years, since Armament Sect was founded, there were only twenty seven people who could cause a change in the spirit pattern pillars and understood the wonders of those designs.

Every one of these twenty seven people were Armament Sect’s pride and the darling of that era!

They were the true cornerstone of Armament Sect!

For the past tens of years, Tang Siqi and Mo Hai were the only ones to have learned the wonders of the spirit pattern pillars’ diagrams, and Mo Hai was now the number one elder in the inner sect and was a publically acknowledged Artificer Master. Tang Siqi had also shown incredible talent in artifact forging, and her future was limitless.

Would Liang Shaoyang possibly be the third?

With this question in mind, Qin Lie, Tang Siqi, and Lian Rou followed elder Tong Jihua’s footsteps and swiftly rushed to the plaza at the foot of the hill.

Tong Jihua was extremely anxious and had disappeared in a flash. He did not wait for them.

When the trio had arrived at the plaza, they realized that the entire plaza was bright under the dark night, and many lamps had been hung high in the air. Many inner and outer sect disciples had rushed over when they heard the news and stared, with utmost shock, at that one spirit pattern pillar.

Beneath that spirit pattern pillar, Liang Shaoyang sat straight with his eyes closed as if he was learning something.

Above the spirit pattern pillars, those diagrams etched with demons and monsters came alive. They either had wings behind their backs, had three heads and six arms, or dragged a long tail behind them. Their skins were all greenish purple, and they screamed noiselessly on the spirit pattern pillar as if they would break free of their restraints and escape.

Countless tight webs were entangled on the demons and monsters’ bodies, tightening constantly and preventing them from escaping the shackles of the huge webs no matter how they struggled.

Liang Shaoyang sat right beneath that spirit pattern pillar.

The wondrous and huge complex webs above the spirit pattern pillars shone with many colors onto Liang Shaoyang’s body. It was as if it had built a faint connection with Liang Shaoyang and he had completely figured out the miraculous wonders of the picture where demons and monsters were bound.

“So, so he did figure out its wonders. That is how he managed to cause a bizarre change in the spirit pattern pillar so suddenly.” After Tong Jihua arrived, his expression was filled with shock.

“Dong!” The melodious sound of a bell ringing came from above Flame Volcano.

“It’s the sect master. The sect master has come out of seclusion!”

Many inner and outer Armament Sect disciples cried out after hearing the ringing sound.

It was midnight, and there were countless people who were either asleep, cultivating, or practicing inscribing spirit diagrams. When they heard the bell, every Armament Sect elder, disciple, and reverend’s expressions changed as they realized that a change had happened in Armament Sect. They could not help but walk out to have a look.

Very soon, they realized the plaza beneath Flame Volcano had many sect disciples present.

Therefore the six great elders of inner sect, the three reverends, the sixteen disciples, the three outer sect elders, more than ninety disciples, and the numerous foreign delegates from outside the city…

Anyone who was a part of Armament Sect had gathered beside the plaza the moment they heard the bell.
