Chapter 751

Led by Gong Yun, Jia Lingyun and his party soon arrived at Yi Mountain, one of the Seven Mountains and Twelve Sects. The saying goes: "The Jianghu gazes toward the Seven Mountains." This means that while there are thousands of sects across the world, only those established atop these seven towering peaks represent the absolute pinnacle of the Jianghu. Every year, smaller sects arrive to challenge them for a place on the mountains. However, to preserve the strength of the sects, these challenges are conducted with a spirit of harmony: the two most outstanding disciples from each side engage in a duel to the death, and the challenge ends when one falls. That is how the Seven Mountains and Twelve Sects came to be.
