Therefore, each of the five major sects has a veto power.
This privilege was intended to win over the five major sects. Otherwise, if there were only the above-mentioned regulations, it would be extremely disadvantageous to the five major sects, and they would have no reason to participate.
After all, the strength of the five major sects far surpasses that of any other sect; this is the power of a half-step True Monarch.
Of course, this privilege was extremely coveted by many sects.
One hundred years ago, a sect finally emerged: the Kongtong Sword Sect!
The patriarch of the Kongtong Sword Sect possessed immense talent and was from the same era as the patriarch of Maoshan.
He had mastered the ancestral Seven Injury Technique to perfection.
Therefore, having just become a half-step True Monarch, he suggested in an ancestral court resolution that he become the sixth major sect.
Unfortunately, besides him, there were only three other Celestial Masters in the sect, and they were all ordinary Celestial Masters, not Grand Celestial Masters.
Even though he gathered many second- and third-rate sects, he was ultimately rejected by the Quanzhen Sect with a single vote.
In his anger, he directly proposed to eliminate the veto power of the weakest sect, the Shushan Sword Sect. After all, he dared not provoke the Quanzhen Sect, whose patriarch also possessed a second-stage fire spirit body.
Unfortunately, this proposal was rejected by the Shushan Sword Sect.
Enraged, he started spewing insults at the crowd, saying that Maoshan became the fifth major sect only after it had a half-step True Monarch.
If the Kongtong Sword Sect isn't qualified to be the sixth major sect, then neither is the Maoshan Sect.
Upon hearing this, the fiery temper of the Maoshan Patriarch flared up instantly, and he stood up, ready to beat the bastard to death.
Seeing that things were about to escalate into a major incident, the Zhengyi faction members quickly stepped in to mediate!
It is said that when the ancestral temple was established, it was clearly stipulated that there could only be five permanent positions for major sects, and no more than one.
Unfortunately, upon hearing this, the patriarch of the Kongtong Sword Sect sneered and began to say that the Zhengyi Sect and Longhu Mountain were originally one sect, so why split them into two and occupy an extra spot for nothing? He suggested that the two sects merge!
Then leave a spot for him in the Kongtong Sword Sect.
This left all the sects in the entire venue dumbfounded.
Good heavens, this has offended all five major sects in one fell swoop.
Ultimately, the five major sects jointly decided to remove the Kongtong Sword Sect from the list of Daoist sects.
From then on, no sect dared to associate with the Kongtong Sword Sect, not even to conduct any transactions.
Of course, it wasn't because the five major sects threatened them; it was simply because they were afraid that this brain-dead ancestor would target them as well.
Five hundred years have passed since then.
Because this matter concerning the Qin Shi Huang Mausoleum is of paramount importance, it concerns the very survival of the entire cultivation world! Therefore, the Daoist ancestral court has once again notified the Kongtong Sword Sect.
The patriarch of the Kongtong Sword Sect is still alive, but he is over 510 years old! He has already exceeded the limit of lifespan.
In the past hundred years, the entire Kongtong Sword Sect has been emptied out in an effort to prolong his life.
This made matters worse for the already impoverished sect; not only did no Celestial Masters emerge, but one even died.
It was an extremely tragic situation.
However, this time, the patriarch of the Kongtong Sword Sect was excited after receiving the news from the Daoist sect.
A century has passed, and this time he is determined to avenge the humiliation of the past.
Because he possessed a shocking secret.
That was the patriarch of Maoshan, who has already passed away!
Once this is exposed, Maoshan will fall from its pedestal among the five major sects, and he will replace it as the fifth major sect!
"Oh, the Ancestral Court Council?"
On this side, Ling Yanyan had just left the Grand Marshal's Mansion of the Great Dragon when he received a message from Dao Xuanzi of the sect.
"The Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor has actually been opened?"
Ling Yanyan raised an eyebrow. He had originally planned to go after finishing all his tasks, but it seemed he would have to go earlier this time!
