Lin Qi was forging talismans, and the others weren't idle either.

Luoci was assigned to contact the Luo family, and Tan Yueqing took the initiative to take charge of contacting Nan Gong siblings, Chu Jiucheng, and Tian Zheng.

Tian Zheng is much kinder to Tan Yueqing than she is to Lin Qi.

The rest of the disciples in the same group also hurriedly sent letters home.

The sect also quickly wove a web of information connecting all areas between the north and south continents.

Lin Qi was busy setting up a formation and drawing talismans while secretly contacting her second senior sister to let Luo Ci communicate with the Demon King, Tian You.

Countless people were mobilized.

They made quite a stir, and other sects quickly took notice.

However, most people only see the surface and simply think that Tianyi Zong is making a last-ditch effort, completely unaware that Tianyi Zong has quietly laid out a grand strategy.

Five days passed in the blink of an eye, and Lin Qi and the others were exhausted and pale.

When the disciples of the Five Sects of Southern Zhou gathered together, most of the disciples of Tianyi Sect were cultivating to recover their spiritual energy.

Everybody thought that Tianyi Sect was very worried about this competition.

The disciples of Bihai Pavilion looked at the disciples of Tianyi Sect with the eyes of a death god, countless blades staring at Lin Qi, wishing to cut her into a thousand pieces.

Lin Qi remained composed and indifferent, ignoring everything around her, crazily absorbing spiritual energy to cultivate.

Once the qualification tournament rules are announced, it's time for the draw.

At the head, a Mahayana monk struck out a green bean-sized seed.

A seed falls to the ground and in the blink of an eye, it grows into a towering tree. Its countless branches stretch out like arms, winding and turning.

Every twig tip quivered with a leaf of translucent, emerald green.

With the great monk's opening words, "Let's begin!"

As soon as the words were spoken, countless cultivators leaped into the air at the same time, rushing forward to pluck the leaves.

Each person can only pick one leaf. The distribution area will only be displayed when the leaves reach everyone's hands, and it will also be restricted by the average allocation rule.

But... these leaves are unnamed.

Anonymity also means that you can freely rearrange them, and selectively keep the weaker or stronger ones on your own territory, making it more convenient for your disciples to achieve results.

This is not a testing vulnerability, but intentional.

The other four major sects fought fiercely on their original grounds, especially the Bihai Pavilion.

To attack fellow disciples with no hesitation, the word "carnage" would be the most apt description.

In contrast, the disciples of Tiān Yī Zōng seemed overly devoted to Buddhism. They slowly plucked leaves one by one, showing no signs of haste.

Even some people can't help but wonder if Tiān Yī Zōng is already preparing to throw caution to the wind.

Lin Qi glanced at the leaf in her hand. It belonged to the North Continent Cang Hai Meng Family territory.

A completely unfamiliar place.

Tan Yueqing held out her own leaf - the territory of Tianyi Sect in Nanzhou.

She whispered to Lin Qi, "Change places!"

Lin Qi was stunned and hadn't reacted yet when Tan Yueqing snatched the leaf from her hand.

The sect had made arrangements for all its disciples' futures, but Lin Qi and Tan Yueqing hadn't yet.

When the war began, Lin Qi could only lead one continent's forces. The leader of the other continent was originally Ye Jian.

Ye Jian's strength is second only to Lin Qi.

But after several layout meetings, Ye Jian felt dizzy and tremblingly refused the proposal. The task then fell to Tan Yueqing.

The two initially agreed that they would go to whichever continent they drew.

Now that Tan Yueqing's reaction, Lin Qi was somewhat caught off guard.

Before Lin Qi could ask, they heard Tan Yueqing's voice again.

I know you've always wanted to destroy the Tianji Sect with your own hands.

You go to the South Continent, I'll go to the North Continent!

Her tone was cold but powerful, carrying an undeniable authority.

Lin Qi's eyes widened in surprise for a moment, her heart filled with mixed emotions. She then smiled and said, "Shimei Tan, I'll be waiting for you in Beizhou."

"Bring good news!"

"I can do it!"

I want all the disciples of Tianyi Sect to be able to enter both North and South Heavenly Venerable!

Lin Qi first spoke about her own thoughts on the truth.

Tan Yueqing was also surprised, and then she heard Lin Qi say seriously: "No one should be eliminated!"

"Senior Sister, this is another new test for us!"

Dan Yue lightly smiled, "I'll beat you!"

"I will bring the disciples of Bei Zhou into the Heavenly Venerable Mansion!"

"Me too!" Lin Qi smiled proudly and confidently.

The orderly way Tian Yi Zong disciples replaced their leaves caught the attention of many sects.

It's just that time is short, even if I have doubts, I can't guess the specific reason for a while.

As the Stargazing Bell before the South-North Heaven's Venerable Palace rang, six Mahayana cultivators simultaneously cast spells, tearing open a rift in the void.

Two enormous teleportation arrays hung suspended in mid-air.

The disciples holding leaves were uncontrollably drawn to the two teleportation arrays, disappearing one by one from their original positions.

Lin Qi took the lead, leaping into the teleportation array first.

In the blink of an eye, people had already arrived on one side of a vast blue lake.

Four other people landed with her.

"Senior Sister Lin! This is Qing Shui Lake!" Ling Fu recognized the address at once and shouted excitedly.

She was the weakest cultivator in this group and was assigned to Lin Qi's side.

Of the other three cultivators, Li Shuchen was the strongest. The other two were of middling ability. One was named Huo An and was a sword maniac who cared for nothing but his sword. He spent his days either staring blankly at his blade or fighting.

Another person was named Cong Shuang. She outwardly appeared alluring and flamboyant, but in reality, she was very timid and cautious.

A rustle of leaves and she started picturing a grand battle, always ready to strike with her flaming wheels.

In five days, Lin Qi had figured out the personalities and habits of every cultivator.

Cong Shuang trembled and asked, "Qing Shui Lake? I seem to remember there is a demon cultivator stronghold beneath Qing Shui Lake, with a Twelve Priest sitting in charge."

It's probably because Yuan Xi and the demon clan were too ruthless in their attack, that now only six of the Twelve Priests of the Tiansaji Sect are still serving.

They were lucky to run into a Level 12 Priest as soon as they arrived.

Lin Qi had long received the distribution of power and detailed maps of each stronghold from the men in black.

She, with a few others, found a secluded place to discuss an attack strategy.

"The Evil Cultivator's base has two entrances in Qing Shui Lake. One is through the side gate, with guards along the way and not many traps. The other is through the back gate, with fewer guards but many traps..."

Lin Qi only finished speaking when Cong Shuang immediately said, "I'll go to the back door!"

She's a little socially anxious and dislikes interacting with people, even if those people might end up dead at her hands later.

Lin Qi's mind immediately had an idea. "Brother Li, you and Sister Cong Shuang take the side door, Brother Huo, Sister Cong, you guys take the back door."

Cóng Shuāng asked in doubt, "What about your senior sister Lin?"

"Me?"

Lin Qi's face showed a hint of smile, "I went to the main gate to provoke them, diverting their attention and relieving your pressure."

"What?!"

"Senior Sister Lin, are you going to go alone?"
