Chapter 578

In the Central Region, the grand gathering of proud talents jointly organized by various major forces had already begun. Many talents had appeared, some of whom had shown themselves previously, while others were appearing before the world for the first time—all geniuses secretly cultivated by secluded major forces. Bai Fan had been in secluded cultivation within Yaochi Sacred Land. For this gathering of talents, although some cultivators had delivered invitations directly to the Buddhist Sect, the Buddhist Sect had given no response. What came as a surprise, however, was that Nie Yun had actually appeared. The cultivation world knew nothing of the Sword Saint's situation, generally believing that after that battle, the Sword Saint had exhausted everything to unleash two consecutive strikes and must surely be dead. Thus, the appearance of Nie Yun, as the Sword Saint's disciple, deeply surprised many cultivators.
