5 Junior Martial Brothers Counterattack (1/2)

Six days passed by in a flash, and the Immortal Gathering was around the corner.

Six days passed by in a flash, and too many things had happened in Spirit Creek Town. The story of a countryside youth's incredible encounter at the inn had spread throughout the entire town, as well as word of a certain Lady Boss's golden radishes. Young talents from all over the land, as if by prior agreement, began to look for the same kind opportunity.

Six days passed by in a flash, and the number of opportunities they have actually excavated were only known amongst them.

But the one who started everything had stayed peacefully within the Ru Family Inn for the entire six days.

He had completed the quest at the town entrance out of sheer curiosity. From the beginning, Wang Lu had never really been considerate about fate. Since he already had the ”Heavenly Spirit Root”, was ”fate” something he needed to become an Immortal Cultivator anymore?

Of course, on the other hand, after spending all of his money in order to receive a box of wine and meat, Wang Lu only had a single coin left. Therefore, he did not have any other choice, unless he was willing to wash some dishes for the Lady Boss.

In the morning, Wang Lu was awakened by the noise outside his room.

”The Immortal Gathering has begun!”

”The mountain gate's Golden Bridge has been lowered!”

Countless people were shouting. Their sounds gradually moved towards the exit of the town.

The sunlight from outside the room was already quite blinding. Wang Lu opened his eyes and let out a sigh. He woke his errand boy up and began to change his clothes, readying himself to embark on his journey.

During their check out at the counter, for some reason, the Lady Boss would not stop smiling. When Wang Lu tried to return the box back to her, she generously waved her hands. ”It's not worth much, you can keep it.”

Since she was being so ”generous”, Wang Lu really wanted to ask her, why not give his three thousand and five hundred liang of silver back?

Of course, that was impossible. Holding the rusty copper coin in his hand, Wang Lu walked out of the inn with the gigantic box and a big smile on his face. Following the crowd, he walked towards the location of the Immortal Gathering.

Outside the Spirit Creek Town, the reflection of the sun's rays made the towering Spirit Sword Mountain look like it was coated with a layer of gold. A Golden Bridge slowly descended from the everlasting clouds in the sky, with one end attached to the ground and the other end stretching all the way to the Spirit Sword Mountain. The clouds covered a good portion of the bridge, giving the impression that it was cut off in the middle, isolating the mortal world from the Immortal World.

Tens of thousands of people filled the small land at the base of the bridge. Wang Lu had woken up late, and as a result, he was still stuck inside the town. He could only gaze into the distance.

Fortunately, the youth has excellent eyesight. He could see from afar that the Golden Bridge in the sky was gradually lowered. With hands making a sword sign, two cultivators wearing black and white robes standing on flying swords stood on each side of the bridge.

From afar, the two young cultivators didn't seem to have any supernatural power and looked exactly like ordinary mortals. They did not have a halo or heavenly music around them, but even from afar, their Immortal Auras surpassed that of a mortal emperor. When the Golden Bridge hit the ground, there was a loud thud, followed by a complete silence amongst the countless of people on that small land. Everyone's gaze was focused in one place. Not to mention the princes and sons of officials, even the descendants of Immortal Cultivator's families were unable to speak.

In the silence, the Spirit Sword Sect cultivators smiled and began to speak. Their voices were like the wind, blowing into the ears of each person present.

”First of all, my Junior Martial Brother and I would like to welcome everyone to the Spirit Sword Sect's Immortal Gathering.”

The two people then very calmly began to clap. Unfortunately, their Immortal Auras were too strong, deterring anyone from following them.

The Senior Martial Brother felt a bit embarrassed as he cleared his throat. ”Well, let's skip all the idle talks. Regarding our sect's information, I'm sure everyone has asked what they need to know at the town already, so I no longer need to repeat them. As for the other things, you will find out for yourselves in your journey upward. I sincerely hope that everyone will be able to find their fate with the Immortal Path.”

Then, from the crowd, someone finally opened his mouth to ask, ”Is the Immortal Gathering simply walking to the top of this bridge?”

The Senior Martial Brother replied, ”To this, I can hope for everyone to try their best on their journey. As for the top, no need to obsess over it too much.”

”Then what spot do we need to reach in order to pass? Surely, you can tell us about that.”

The Senior Martial Brother replied, ”When the time comes, you'll know,”

”When the time comes? Isn't this a bit too irresponsible?”

The Senior Martial Brother smiled, but said nothing. Instead, the Junior Martial Brother coldly said, ”If you don't want to come, then get lost. No one's begging you to try.”

The asker immediately blushed and did not dare to dispute again.

The Senior Martial Brother began to speak again, ”Now, please walk to the mountain along this Golden Bridge. In general, there should be no danger on this bridge. However, if you have an accident, trapped or find yourself in a dangerous situation, feel free to ask for a rescue at any time. We will come to help you as soon as possible.”

The Junior Martial Brother added, ”And, if there are any people who are deliberately looking for death, we will gladly fulfill their wish.”

The Senior Martial Brother said, ”I apologize, everyone, my Junior Martial Brother is in a bad mood these past few days...”

”I am in a good mood.”

”You shut up.”
