As Xu Qing's Foundation Building aura spread and the bell's chimes rang on the entire Seventh Peak, three figures soared into the air from the mountain peak and flew down the mountain.
Generally speaking, if a foreign Foundation Building cultivator stepped onto the mountain steps here, they would only be stopped outside and wouldn't cause the bell to ring.
They would need to report their identity and explain their purpose of coming. An array formation would inform the person they wanted to visit. After the other party agreed, they could ascend the mountain under the surveillance of the array formation.
For instance, when the Diamond Sect's ancestor visited the Sixth Peak's Daoist Leisure Cloud, it was like this.
There was only one possibility for the bell ringing when someone stepped onto the mountain steps.
That was… the appearance of a new Foundation Building cultivator who wasn't registered in the array formation among the sect's disciples.
