Chapter 388 Lovers Valley — Mirror Lake
Beams of flowing light from the gate of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect were shot, as if they were the most beautiful fireworks in the world, galloping toward the east.
Ding Hao urged his Black Lightning to follow in the crowd.
Li Jianyi, the head of the Sect led the team by himself. Twenty-six superiors from different seniorities and various levels in the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect were selected to set out for Mirror Lake in Lovers Valley, found in the middle of Snow Province to attend the once-in-a-decade Sect Level Conference, representing the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect.
For many sects in Snow Province, the Sect Level Conference was a big event to determine their destiny, and it should not be neglected. The Swordsmanship-seeking Sect sent its strongest team to attend.
In the crowd, Ding Hao saw Li Lan, Li Muyun and Liang Feixue.
He knew that the three represented the latest group of inner successor disciples to attend the Sect Level Conference and he said hello to them. Since all people were flying at high speed, Ding Hao had to operate his Black Lightning carefully in order not to lag behind, so he could not go closer to them and talk.
But Young Jade Master showing up in the crowd made Ding Hao feel a little bit surprised.
The Young Jade Master stopped Wang Juefeng in the Sword-hidden Peak battle, standing with the invaders and rebels in the Sect. Unexpectedly, he survived the great purge in the Sect without being harmed and was selected to attend the Sect Level Conference as well… The role he played in the battle seemed to have been deliberately arranged by the Sect.
On the way, almost nobody rested, flying wildly in the clouds.
Before Li Lan and the others arrived in the primordial land, they were led by the superiors from the Sect. Ding Hao had cultivated two systems of martial arts; both his Hell Ice Qi and Sky Fire Qi could last longer, so that he followed masters and superiors closely with his Black lightning, making a rumbling sound.
At sunset, those people rested for two hours in an unknown wilderness area, then continued on the road.
The Mirror Lake in Lovers Valley was about one hundred thousand kilometers away from the gate of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect.
With the speed of those people from the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect, it would take at least more than six days to reach the place. On the way, they passed some areas dominated by demon tribe superpowers and they stayed vigilant. Even Li Jianyi, the superior at the overlord level in Snow Province had been keeping his eyes open.

The war between the Human Tribe and the Demon Tribe had been around for a long time. The birth of the two tribes was far from being traceable. However, there was a point where both sides had agreed that the war was first caused by the struggle for resources and space for survival. Later, it became a deep and unclear hatred between the two tribes. Several large-scale holy wars had almost destroyed the entire Land of Infinity, and such wars had never stopped for millions of years.
Generally, the demon tribe, relying on their magic primordial power, strong bodies and terribly fast reproduction speed, took the upper hand in wars.
Until hundreds of thousands of years prior, the human tribe’s fate changed with several superiors at the supreme God of War level being born. They retrieved the tribe’s declining trend and forced the demon tribe peak to reach a Primitive Alliance Treaty with the human tribe. Both tribes agreed that no more big holy wars would be carried out, so as to avoid destroying the Land of Infinity in wars by the two tribes, potentially leading them all the way to extinction.
Since then, the Land of Infinity became peaceful.
Of course, various small underground conflicts had never stopped. The two tribe peaks had great magic power, but the number was limited. Moreover, the Land of Infinity was vast and the two tribes could keep balance in the big scheme of things; they could not have control over every big and small issue.
For hundreds of thousands of years, several superiors of the human tribe had been dominating their own respective destinies in specific areas of the east, south, west, north and central. With great perseverance and aspiration, they had been working hard for the tribe’s continuity. In the Land of Infinity, they had established new sects, taught martial arts and improved the human tribe’s strength. Those sects had gradually become the ruling class force in the Land of Infinity, controlling indescribable resources, so that they could almost command all human tribes.
Snow Province, as one of the twenty-six provinces in the Northern Region, was the suppression area of God of War Mysterious Frost in the Northern Region.
In that vast land, the Holy Palace of Mysterious Frost controlled everything like an emperor high above. It issued orders, settled disputes inside the human tribe and allocate some big cultivation mining resources. Sects like the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect and the Tranquility Academy could be considered to be at the overlord level, but, when compared with the Holy Palace of Mysterious Frost, they were as small as seeds in the ocean and had no power to resist.
The Sect Level Conference was presided by the Holy Palace of Mysterious Frost.
Not only in Snow Province but also in the other twenty-five provinces of the Northern Region, the Sect Level Conference was held every ten years. They were presided over by an inspector from the Holy Palace of Mysterious Frost. On the basis of every sect’s performance and rank in it, each sect’s proportion would be determined for the future ten years, in terms of various cultivation resources and support from the Holy Palace of Mysterious Frost.
In the Sect Level Conference ten years back, the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect was ranked level eight, while the Tranquility Academy had level seven, and it was the second among the nine sects in Snow Province. After the recent years’ hard managed development by Li Jianyi, men of talent came out in succession in the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect, but still, it could not overwhelm the Tranquility Academy with certainty. In addition to Mu Tianyang, their Child Prodigy, there was another important reason. The Tranquility Academy had more support from the Holy Palace of Mysterious Frost than the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect.
So, for the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect, it would deserve the number one in Snow Province if it could really overwhelm the Tranquility Academy by winning a beautiful victory in the coming Sect Level Conference, obtaining more support from the Holy Palace of Mysterious Frost as a result.
It was the same for the other eight sects.
Even for those small sects who had not achieved any levels in the previous level conference for sects, and failed to be counted among the nine great sects, that was an opportunity. With an outstanding performance, achieving recognition of the inspector from the Holy Palace of Mysterious Frost and ranking in the sect levels, they would succeed and have a possibility of further development.
The immediate opportunity made everyone go crazy.
…
…
In the Lovers Valley.
Such a name was so old that few people could tell why it was called that way.
In fact, Lovers Valley was not a valley but a vast grassland with an area of hundreds of li around. A smooth, clear and elliptical lake was inlaid in the beautiful grassland, and was called Mirror Lake. When a bird’s-eye-view was taken, the lake was like a mirror. At midnight, the moonlight was reflected on the lake and it was as bright as snow, extremely beautiful.
