If it weren’t for this matter concerning an ancient catastrophe, and the fact that the master himself personally presided over it, these retired big figures, living in seclusion, probably wouldn’t have bothered to come.

As the main party involved in this event, Lu Xun had expected the master to bring him to the meeting, only to be… marooned at the back mountain.

After the master left to attend the convention alone, Lu Xun was disappointed.

Even as a fictional hero was he enthralled.

He even planned on expanding his horizons there!

Faking a pose labelled: Bigwig.jpg.

As a connoisseur of novels, Lu Xun is tremendously interested in hidden experts within the sects.

He wasn’t sure whether they also have a special penchant for sweeping?

Cultivators, with their extended lifespans, could probably sweep the front of the scriptures library for hundreds of years, right?

“Third Senior Brother, why does the master refuse to take me with him, even though I’m the one involved?” Leaning against a bamboo stalk, Lu Xun vented his grievances while digesting his meal.

Mao Nanbei, having morphed into a petite black cat, mirrored Lu Xun’s actions, nestling against a stalk of bamboo, rubbing its rounded belly with its small paw. Quite a picturesque sight

In reply to Lu Xun’s question, Third Senior Brother, Zhuge Lai Fu, chuckled and said, “It wouldn’t have been appropriate to have you there, Little Junior Brother.”

“Why not?” Lu Xun asked, puzzled.

Third Senior Brother glanced in the direction of Demon Sect’s main peak and replied, “Because the master wishes to save face.”

Lu Xun didn’t really appreciate the remark.

He stood up, flicking his long hair back.

Filtered by the bamboo leaves, the fragmented sunlight cast a few streaks of color onto him.

“I wouldn’t embarrass the master, would I?” Lu Xun retorted.

A charisma of 10, yet he’s unworthy to be displayed?

“No, no, no. Little Junior Brother, that’s not what Third Senior Brother meant. I meant, the master wants to keep up appearances in front of you.” Zhuge Lai Fu chuckled a few times lightheartedly, and his visage scrunched up into an ugly mess.

“Hmm? Is the master going to get bullied in the meeting… ah, I see.” Lu Xun suddenly had an epiphany.

The idea of the master wishing to keep up appearances in front of his disciples obviously didn’t mean that he was going to be taken advantage of in the meeting, leading to a loss of face.

With the master’s unfathomable strength, it would be ludicrous to even consider this angle.

There was only one plausible explanation then…

He might play dirty, and bully others at the meeting!

The face he wanted to save was nothing more than his usual elegant demeanor in front of his disciples.

After connecting the dots, Lu Xun stifled a twitching corner of his mouth, astonished by the reason.

Ultimately, the grand convention commenced secretly, unbeknownst to the public, and concluded rather swiftly.

To the average disciple, it was just another ordinary day.

The only anomaly was that for some reason, the ground trembled once every few minutes in the morning, totalling several times.

The meeting of the seven major sects concluded in the morning.

The heads of the six sects and the hidden bigwigs all returned to their respective sects and began making arrangements.

The master, on the other hand, returned to his Small Study located at the back mountain.

Lu Xun went to inquire about the outcome, thus gaining a rough understanding.

The final resolution was similar to his previous life. Generally, everyone agreed to work together. On ordinary days, they would first clean their own backyard. When they encountered something they couldn’t handle, they would call for backup.

Similar to being responsible for their own sect’s region.

For instance, the Demon Sect was responsible for the Eastern Region while One Sword Mountain and Ten Thousand Sword Mountain were accountable for the West State.

Looking from this perspective, it seemed like the two Sword Sects had fewer responsibilities.

Even though West State was larger compared to the regions where the other sects were located, the difference wasn’t quite double.

In a single state, there are two top-ranking sects, which makes things fairly relaxed.

But in actuality, Lu Xun is clear that the Demon Sect currently has it the easiest.

This is because the entirety of the Eastern Region, quite possibly without even a single sacrificial altar, is comparable to a prohibited area of the foreign race!

In his previous life playing “Heavenly Dust,” players from other sects were essentially “defending the tower” and, when conditions permitted, they went to “dismantle the tower.”

However, the Demon Sect was different, they were wandering all around…

Unable to do anything else, without any monsters to kill in their own territory, they could only support other regions.

Thus, in all major regions, players of the Demon Sect could be seen actively participating.

If you can handle it, we’re just here to leech off the experience points.

If you can’t handle it, we’re here to help counter-kill.

This made players in all major regions have mixed feelings towards the Demon Sect’s players.

During convenient times, they would call them “big brother” or “little demoness”, like reinforcements sent by the Gods…

During times when they had to share experience points, all sorts of derogatory terms would come in handy.

In his previous life, Lu Xun was not a Demon Sect player, so he didn’t feel particularly connected to these kinds of issues. Now that he had become a young elder in the Demon Sect, he found it quite interesting.

However, apart from the large areas occupied by the seven major sects on the Heavenly Dust Continent, there are medium and small-sized areas like Three Thousand Mountains and the Lost Forest.

Sacrificial altars and the foreign race also exist in these areas, so it’s estimated that the seven major sects will first return to handle their own affairs and then inform these medium and small-sized sects about the situation.

After all, a foreign invasion is like a collision between two worlds!

It’s not a minor issue!

However, the event occurred suddenly, and even the higher-ups in the seven major sects had a feeling of unpreparedness.

Everyone was initially developing their sects peacefully, yet they suddenly entered into “world crisis mode.”

They had gone from focusing on professional matters to now preparing for a homeland defense war.

What was going on!

However, these great cultivators all had experienced many waves. After calming their minds and thinking it over, it was not difficult to understand that this time, the teacher’s youngest disciple, Lu Xun, had indeed made a significant contribution!

After all, judging from the current situation, a foreign invasion was inevitable.

They knew a bit about the ancient catastrophe and understood what kind of people the foreign race were.

Cruel, bloodthirsty, insane…

This kind of power can’t just be beaten into submission, but it needs at least to be scared off!

After so many years, their forceful return for a second invasion on the Heavenly Dust Continent showed their determination.

Hence, since it is inevitable, it’s always better to prepare in advance.

Although everyone is a little unprepared at the moment, it benefits everyone in the long run.

Who would have thought that this shocking conspiracy would be first uncovered by a young cultivator at the third realm!

At this point, Lu Xun’s objective had pretty much been achieved.

After careful consideration, he decided to lay low for a while.

Increasing his own cultivation base and training a group of reliable sand sculpture players is the way to go!

According to his memories from his previous life, the large scale arrival of the foreigners occurred when the players were around level thirty.

By then, the players already had significant battle power.

Moreover, the players could respawn and exchange information through forums and other functions. These combined made them formidable.

Imagine this, two armies clashing, your side is still sending messages by horse while the other side can communicate through the internet.

You guys only have one life, whereas they at most lose some experience points or get downgraded, but they can respawn.

It’s too damn tricky!

However, one thing always confused Lu Xun.

“Logically, players should grow stronger from fighting, since killing the foreign race awards experience points. With experience points, they can level up quickly.”

“But it’s strange that after the foreign race begins invading on a large scale, their power increases just as quickly as the players’.”

“What exactly is the reason?”
