Chapter 1404: Kidnapping People
In the twilight sky to the north, dozens of streams of colorful light streaked across like meteors and descended before Fang Bai and the others.The streams of colorful light landed, revealing dozens of martial artists dressed in various attire, each flying atop distinct spiritual artifacts shaped as blades, swords, spears, axes, and more.
"Flight using Imperial Instruments of legend..."
"They must all be Foundation Establishment experts, right?"o discover promising cultivators among the incoming martial artists from the Minor Worlds and bring them back to bolster their sect.
When Fang Bai and the dozen martial artists crossed the spatial passage to emerge in the Three Thousand Great Worlds, the nearby sect elders felt the sudden presence and immediately rode their spiritual artifacts to arrive.
What those sect elders didn’t expect was that this batch of martial artists from the Minor Worlds not only had excellent talent but included six with innate spiritual roots.
This revelation drove the dozens of sect elders into ecstatic joy.
Among the six innate spiritual root martial artists, besides Fang Bai, there were Shi Ming, Zhan Pengfei, Tong Yaoyao, and the sibling pair You Long and You Feng.
The gaze of every elder from the various sects locked onto the six innate spiritual root martial artists, their expressions resembling hungry wolves that had stumbled upon a feast, ready to pounce at any moment.
"Relax a little... They mean no harm. For us, this might even be a good thing..."
Fang Bai softly reassured Shi Ming, Zhan Pengfei, and the others, who were nervously bracing themselves for an attack.
"Haha, the young man speaks wisely!"
One of the Foundation Establishment high-level experts, an elderly man with a round belly, white hair and beard, and a ruddy complexion who resembled a laughing Maitreya Buddha, chuckled loudly and pointed at Fang Bai. "Let me tell you—we are indeed here with good intentions!"
Fang Bai understood what the elder meant by "good intentions" but remained silent, merely smiling.
Shi Ming and the others, however, looked at the white-haired elder with confusion, awaiting an explanation of the so-called "good intentions."
"Our sects are among the top-tier strong sects of the Three Thousand Great Worlds. The sect masters are unmatched super experts at the Foundation Establishment perfection realm, capable of flight, commanding fire, and taming water."
The white-haired elder boasted for a while before continuing, "We’ve come specifically to select disciples. You can choose any of the sects here to join... Young man, you possess the innate Fire Spirit Root, which aligns perfectly with my cultivation of Fire-based Techniques and Martial Arts. I’m more than willing to teach you in the future."
After landing, the white-haired elder immediately set his sights on Fang Bai and wasted no time extending an invitation. "I am Elder Wu Zhihua of Lingxu Palace, and I cordially invite you to join our sect."
His gaze then shifted to Shi Ming beside Fang Bai. "Lingxu Palace happens to have elders proficient in Earth Element Techniques and Martial Arts. If you join Lingxu Palace, you are bound to achieve Foundation Establishment soon. Ascending to even higher realms wouldn’t be impossible!"
Upon seeing the white-haired elder try to recruit two innate spiritual roots at once, the other sect elders grew impatient and voiced their objections:
"Innate spiritual roots are incredibly rare—Lingxu Palace, are you truly planning to monopolize two of them? Wu Zhihua, have you no shame?"
"At least leave us some breathing room!"
"Young ones, don’t just listen to him!"
"Exactly! Our Medicine King Mountain isn’t lacking in strength compared to Lingxu Palace! Medicine King Mountain sincerely invites you to join us!"
"Nine Heavens Palace invites you to join as well!"
"Soul Summoning Hall invites you to join us!"
...
The dozens of sect elders crowded around Fang Bai and the others in circles upon circles, issuing invitations. Each elder’s face radiated earnestness, expressing a profound eagerness to recruit the newcomers like precious treasures.
