Chapter 14 - Entering the Inner Sect!

“Congratulations on passing the Puppet Valley, you can now enter the Inner Sect!” Sun Haishan said excitedly.

Having served as an outer sect elder for so long, if it were an ordinary person who passed, he wouldn’t be too excited.

After all, those who barely passed would still be at the bottom even if they entered the Inner Sect, causing no ripples. But Meng Changqing was different.

His potential was almost on par with the Inner Sect disciples, if not surpassing many of them.

You see, even among Inner Sect disciples, those who can comprehend ‘power’ are rare talents!

What a genius!

“Today, tidy up a bit. Tomorrow, I will take you into the Inner Sect,” Sun Haishan said, looking at Meng Changqing with undisguised satisfaction.

“Thank you, Elder,” Meng Changqing couldn’t help but relax.

After all, this had been his goal for a long time.

But with the system, entering the Inner Sect was not the end but the beginning of his long martial arts journey!

“Inner Sect!” Upon hearing the elder’s words, there was some commotion in the crowd.

Looking into Meng Changqing’s eyes, there was envy.

The Inner Sect was the core of the sect.

Everyone present was striving for it, but those who could pass were few and far between!

Meng Changqing scanned the crowd and spotted Xia Han.

Their eyes met, and Xia Han’s eyes showed awe. Just over half a month had passed, but their strengths and positions had changed drastically. However, Meng Changqing remained unchanged.

He smiled slightly and nodded at Xia Han, just like before.

Then he turned his gaze to Bai Suxi and walked over.

“Congratulations, Senior Brother Meng, on passing the Puppet Valley and entering the Inner Sect!” Bai Suxi smiled sincerely.

“With your talent, you’ll soon get in too. I just got there a bit earlier,” Meng Changqing said with a smile.

“Yeah, I’ll hurry up too. Senior Brother Meng, wait for me!” Bai Suxi nodded vigorously, her face showing determination.

Meng Changqing didn’t doubt Bai Suxi’s words at all.

This girl not only had monstrous talent but also extraordinary luck.

After a brief chat, Meng Changqing left. He needed to go back and tidy up his things.

Watching Meng Changqing’s departing figure, the crowd, which had been somewhat restrained because of the elder’s presence, erupted.

All they talked about was Meng Changqing—excitement, admiration, envy, and more.

It was a mix of emotions.

But mostly, there was curiosity about Meng Changqing.

After all, his name had rarely been heard before, making him somewhat unfamiliar.

But regardless, from now on, everyone in the outer sect would know and remember the name Meng Changqing.

—

The next day, still the Puppet Valley.

Meng Changqing arrived here, and Sun Haishan was already waiting.

Today, Sun Haishan seemed to have specifically changed into a clean and refreshing set of clothes, unlike his usual casual attire.

“Respected Elder,” Meng Changqing greeted with a slight bow.

“Ah,” Sun Haishan stroked his white beard, a smile appearing on his face. “Let’s go, along the way, I’ll tell you about the situation inside the sect.”

“And what you should do after entering the inner sect.”

“I’d like to hear more,” Meng Changqing said attentively.

Although he had some understanding of the inner sect, it was only partial knowledge, knowing just the general idea.

The real situation was unclear to him.

Sun Haishan began to explain as they walked. “Compared to the outer sect, the inner sect is definitely more complicated. There are seven main peaks, also known outside as the Seven Veins of Tai Xuan. Among them, the strongest is naturally the Sect Master Peak, while the remaining six peaks are managed by the six Elders of the Elder’s Pavilion.

“Remember, in the inner sect, you mustn’t violate the sect rules. Otherwise, the enforcers of the Punishment Peak won’t show mercy.”

Speaking of this, a trace of fear could be seen on Sun Haishan’s face.

“Is it really that strict?” Meng Changqing pondered and asked.

In the outer sect, there weren’t many rules, as long as fellow disciples didn’t fight each other.

“Of course. The Grand Elder is in charge of punishment and is known for being impartial. Even true disciples who make mistakes must be dealt with according to the rules!” Sun Haishan said with lingering fear.

“Even true disciples are punished?” Meng Changqing was shaken. “Is the Grand Elder very powerful? Stronger than the Sect Master?”

“Not necessarily,” Sun Haishan shook his head. “The Sect Master is indeed powerful, but the Sect Master’s temperament is relatively mild. He doesn’t exercise as much authority as others.

“That’s getting off topic. After you enter the inner sect, you must choose a vein. Only then can you get the corresponding resources, techniques, and martial skills.

“However, the Sect Master Peak stopped accepting disciples a long time ago. You can only choose from the other six veins: the Punishment Peak of the Grand Elder, the Medicine King Peak of the Second Elder, the Purple Nourishment Peak of the Third Elder, the Martial Arts Peak of the Fourth Elder, the Formation Peak of the Fifth Elder, and the Spirit Peak of the Sixth Elder.

“There isn’t much difference in strength among the six veins. You can choose freely.”

“But I recommend you choose the Spirit Peak.”

“Why?” Meng Changqing raised an eyebrow.

“Because you have cultivated the Sword Qi. It’s highly probable that you will follow the path of the sword in the future.”

“And in the sect, only the Spirit Peak specializes in the sword path,” Sun Haishan explained.

“The path of the sword,” Meng Changqing pondered. He hadn’t decided on his weapon choice yet. But since the system provided “Sword Qi,” he would temporarily focus on sword cultivation. If there were other “Intents” in the future, he could pursue them concurrently.

According to Sun Haishan’s words, the Spirit Peak seemed to be the most suitable for him at the moment.

As they chatted, they had already reached the end of the passage. Surrounding them was a clean open space engraved with many incomprehensible runes.

“This is a small teleportation array that leads directly to the inner sect,” Sun Haishan explained. At the same time, a jade token appeared in his hand.

Walking to the center of the teleportation array, without any hesitation, Meng Changqing followed suit. He had heard before that the way to enter the inner sect seemed to be through a teleportation array.

“Stand firm,” Sun Haishan laughed heartily. Then, he slammed the jade token into the array beneath their feet.

Rumble!

The teleportation array trembled. After a dazzling burst of light, the two of them disappeared on the spot.

It felt like a change of scenery, a reversal of heaven and earth. When Meng Changqing opened his eyes, the surroundings were unfamiliar.

He saw towering peaks, swirling clouds, and many spirit birds chirping and flying around, resembling a fairyland from legends.
