Chapter 1418 - 1417: The Seven Monsters of the Martial World Gather

"Flap, flap, flap~"

Just then, a messenger pigeon suddenly appeared in the distant sky and landed on the top of the small pavilion!

The middle-aged man, upon seeing the pigeon, suddenly had eyes that became bright and clear, and his body, which was sitting in the chair, suddenly stood up with a "whoosh"!

A trace of excitement appeared on the middle-aged man's face as he quickly walked out of the pavilion, gently tapped the ground with his toes, and his body soared over a meter high, reaching out and catching the pigeon that had landed atop the pavilion!

The middle-aged man lovingly stroked the pigeon a few times, then took out a small paper ball from the bamboo-made mailbox tied to the pigeon's leg!

After unfolding and looking at it, the middle-aged man laughed heartily: "Master Xian finally sent a message!"

After seeing the words on the letter, the middle-aged man crumpled the paper ball into waste paper, tightly clenched it in his palm, and a Powerful Qi suddenly emanated from his hand!

When he opened his palm again, the paper ball had already turned into fragments!

Subsequently, the middle-aged man stepped out of the pavilion, took out a pen, wrote the words "Got it" on a piece of paper, and stuffed it back into the mailbox tied to the pigeon's leg!

"Little guy, off you go!"

The middle-aged man affectionately rubbed the pigeon's smooth feathers a few times, released his arm, and the pigeon immediately flew off into the distance!

Afterward, the middle-aged man promptly turned and walked towards the herb storehouse!

In front of the herb storehouse stood two soldiers, fully armed and in uniform!

However, upon seeing the middle-aged man, instead of blocking him, they respectfully called out, "Senior!"

After nodding, the middle-aged man said, "I want to enter the herb storehouse!"

"Yes!"

One soldier nodded, took out a small remote control from his pocket, and lightly pressed a button, causing the iron door of the herb storehouse to slowly open!

The middle-aged man walked up to the door without hesitation, took a deep breath, and walked directly inside!

The herb storehouse naturally needed to have the air conditioning on to preserve the herbs inside, and cold air currents floated within!

Anyone entering had to wear a padded jacket; otherwise, the cold air would be unbearable. Yet the middle-aged man wore only light clothing and seemed unfazed by the cold!

The middle-aged man skillfully navigated to the section for Chinese herbs and approached a cabinet!

His gaze swept across the cabinet, and he reached out to take down two wooden boxes!

Upon opening them, he found in one a ginseng looking almost identical to a human figure!

In the other was a Ganoderma, no bigger than a palm!

These two items were precisely the Centennial Ginseng and Centennial Ganoderma that Lin Kongxian needed!

Though these two boxes weren't large, if they were auctioned off, they could fetch a shocking price!

Anything prefixed with "Centennial" was extremely valuable!

Aside from the herbs in these two boxes, every herb on the cabinet was very rare, collected by the middle-aged man!

To be precise, these were all collected by Lin Kongxian; the middle-aged man was merely a caretaker!

Then, the middle-aged man casually picked up a wooden box over two meters long next to the cabinet!

With a several longing expressions, the middle-aged man opened the wooden box with a "click," and inside was a long sword resembling a Samurai Sword!

"My beloved, we finally meet again!"

After laughing loudly, the middle-aged man placed the box on his back and tied it with a rope. Then, without hesitation, he promptly turned and headed towards the cold exterior!

In the outside world, perhaps no one knew his name, looking like a kindly old man!

Yet in the Martial World, this person's name instilled terror!

Seventy years ago, alone wielding a long sword, he slaughtered over a hundred Wokou, becoming famous in one battle, and earning the name Godslayer!

This person was none other than one of the seven legendary figures of the Martial World, the Eagle King!

Moreover, besides the herb storehouse, many places across the entire nation saw people heading towards the Shaolin Temple. Each held a high position in the real world, having lived for over a hundred years. Having been part of the world for so long, they certainly wouldn't be doing poorly!

Of course, there were those with no worldly disputes, taking a few disciples and residing in the deep mountains and forests!

The assembly of the seven legendary figures of the Martial World was enough to shake the entire Martial World!

…

The next morning, Lin Kongxian woke up and moved a chair to sit outside the courtyard, meditating!

Today was the fifteenth of August, the day to perform the "Heaven-Defying Fate Changing Technique." He knew his old brothers would also gather together today!

Abbot Kongxu walked out from the house, came to Lin Kongxian's side, and said, "Those people now live a carefree life, holding high positions. I wonder if they'll come?"

"The Martial World is one big family, and we are considered part of the same lineage. Rest assured, they will come!" Lin Kongxian said confidently!

Before the split within the Martial World, there was a period of peace in which the seven legendary figures of the previous generation ruled the Martial World!

These seven legendary figures of the previous generation included Lin Kongxian's master and Abbot Kongxu's master!

Thus, after earning the title of the seven legendary figures of the Martial World, their relationships naturally became very good. Lin Kongxian was the head of the seven, calling himself "Master Xian!"

However, later the Martial Arts world fractured, society no longer wielding swords, battles using hot weapons, technology and the internet became the future trend, and many figures of the Martial World moved to commerce!

Of course, the seven legendary figures will forever remain legends within the Martial World. The people of the Martial World value faith and loyalty above all. Once the assembly order is issued, no matter where they are, the seven legendary figures will always gather at the appointed location on the specified date!

This is a tradition unchanged for a hundred years!

Soon after, a disciple quickly ran over to Lin Kongxian and Abbot Kongxu!

"What's going on?" Abbot Kongxu asked curiously!

"Abbot, several people outside are claiming to be the seven legendary figures and want to enter the inner courtyard!" the disciple reported!

Upon hearing this, Abbot Kongxu was overjoyed and hastily said, "Quickly, welcome them inside!"

"Old bald donkey, if we waited for you to welcome us, the cucumber greens would have chilled. We've come ourselves!"

Just then, a hearty laugh suddenly came from afar!

At once, everyone turned their gaze to the direction of the voice, and six figures appeared before everyone's eyes!

These six were comprised of four men and two women!

One of the women was Master Qin Yin, the Supreme Ancestor of Celestial Tower. He wasn't one of the seven legendary figures; Lin Kongxian invited him for help!

The remaining four men and one woman were the Eagle King, Cyan Wolf King, Fuhu Daoist, White Eyebrow Daoist, and the only female among the seven figures: Princess Peacock!

The seven legendary figures of the Martial World, assembled!
