"Master Su has decreed that our Ancestor may return! A grand banquet will be held in seven days, hoping that all sects will gather to behold the immortal countenance of our Ancestor!"

When this news spread, cultivators all over the world were stunned.

Ancestor?

What ancestor?

Does Xiaoyun Temple still have an ancestor?

This Xiaoyun Temple is only a three-hundred-year-old sect. Although it is quite strong, it has no real foundation. Wasn't the first generation cultivator Abbot Su? Where did this ancestor come from?

As the crowd grew confused, events from hundreds of years ago were gradually brought up, and some of those who knew the truth slowly began to recall them.

Li Xingtian of Changshen Palace... seems to have come from Xiaoyun Temple, and was forcibly taken away by Changshen Palace during a grand immortal sect competition.

At that time, Li Xingtian was the patriarch of Xiaoyun Temple and the grandmaster of Abbot Su. He was only leading the Immortal Sect Grand Prize and was not a participant.

Unexpectedly, Changshen Palace set its sights on Li Xingtian's astonishing talent and used the might of the Immortal Sect to forcibly take him away, including Abbot Su's sister, Xiao Linlin!

Master Su remained silent and did not publicize the matter, but he spent his days and nights in tears, hoping to welcome his loved ones back.

Now, the Ancestor has returned with his sister! This is a joyous occasion for Xiaoyun Temple! It should be celebrated with the heavens and earth!

......

In an instant, cultivators across the land understood, but also found it extremely unbelievable!

No wonder Li Jianxian didn't destroy Xiaoyun Temple; it turns out that Xiaoyun Temple was actually Li Jianxian's sect!

He is the patriarch of Xiaoyun Temple, which is his own sect in terms of both reason and emotion! It is his own property!

As for Su Lin, who protected the young sect leader Jia Zhengyi... to put it bluntly, who would kill their only grand-disciple?

This grand-disciple didn't commit any major mistakes; he merely shielded his former friends. Although these friends had grudges against Changshen Palace, Li Jianxian's actions over the years had essentially avenged their blood feud, and he hadn't failed Changshen Palace's cultivation.

After all, if we really look at it, Changshen Palace forcibly took Li Jianxian back then, and the fact that he was still willing to avenge Changshen Palace shows that he is extremely loyal and righteous. His actions are truly impeccable.

Okay!

In the end, Xiaoyun Temple transformed itself into the biggest winner in this era of great strife!

Nine sects have been wiped out, and an invincible figure has made a powerful comeback!

In this vast world, no one dares to point fingers at Xiaoyun Temple anymore, and no one dares to challenge Xiaoyun Temple!

The "one sect ruling the world" that was mentioned and speculated about by the world during the Nine Sects War has indeed come true. However, this sect does not come from the nine great immortal sects, but from the Xiaoyun Temple that no one expected!

In a daze, some people looked back over the past few hundred years and vaguely sensed that something was amiss.

Most of the outstanding people in this world came from Xiaoyun Temple... In the end, it was these people who survived to the end and brought the final spoils of the great struggle to Xiaoyun Temple.

Is this just a coincidence?

No one dared to discuss it, and no one dared to speak out.

The grand banquet seven days later attracted a multitude of attendees, with high-ranking officials from all the sects across the land bringing lavish gifts.

Li Xingtian had already changed into the robes of Xiaoyun Temple and, in his capacity as the Grandmaster, opened an altar to preach and lecture to the guests, which could be considered a blessing to all people.

Lu Zhouming relinquished power, allowing Xiao Linlin to once again take control of Xiaoyun Temple. Under the guise of a banquet, she actively engaged with various sects across the land to ascertain their attitudes and forcefully establish the [Yiyun Alliance] organization.

The Yiyun Alliance is centered around Yiyun Tower, Xiaoyun Temple, and Xiaoyun Chamber of Commerce. It unites cultivators from all sects across the world, inherits some of the excellent systems left behind by the former Tian Shu organization, and reshapes the world's power dynamics.

In other words, Xiao Linlin aims to create a new world order, ensuring that "One Sect Under Heaven" is truly long-lasting, stable, and continuously provides opportunities for all under heaven to converge at Xiaoyun Temple.

No cultivator in the world dared to disobey Xiaoyun Temple's attitude; basically, they would do whatever Xiao Linlin said.

As long as Li Xingtian, this invincible man, is still alive, the world now belongs to the Xiaoyun Temple.

Fortunately, Xiaoyun Temple still upholds the spirit of benevolence. The system of Yiyun Alliance in controlling the world is much more lenient than that of the original nine immortal sects, and it also provides enough channels for advancement, without suppressing the cultivators of the myriad sects.

From this point of view alone, people's impression of Xiaoyun Temple has improved considerably, and they are less resistant to the emergence of Yiyun Alliance.

In any case, life has finally gotten better, and this era of great strife hasn't been in vain.

Half a year later, the Yiyun Alliance, having gathered all cultivators under heaven, successively acquired all the ruins and remaining resources of the nine great immortal sects, thus monopolizing the heritage of the nine sects.

Besides the immortal sect's territory, grotto-heavens, cultivation techniques, and magic treasures, there are 5215 source stones alone.

More than five thousand Originium!

This is the accumulated wealth of the nine great immortal sects, now all in Su Lin's hands!

However, Su Lin still did not intend to end the game. Now that he had monopolized the world, it would be too much of a waste to leave the game now if he left.

After all, according to the main mission of the current game, as long as the survivors do not actively use Originium to escape, they can theoretically spend an infinite amount of time in this game.

Su Lin, on the other hand, will make the most of this match time to truly transcend himself to the ultimate level!
