"Hurrah!"
"you···"
“It’s really good!”
Ji Haoyue's chest kept rising and falling, a terrifying aura spread out, and his eyes turned red.
"This sect master, this sect master wants today..."
"Old Sect Master, please wait for a moment."
The second elder said, "You don't have to be so angry. First of all, we had no choice but to do it. Moreover, we didn't do it for the sake of living in disgrace. We did it for the sake of the entire sect and the millions of disciples."
"It's not a pity for me to die, but do you think you can let millions of disciples die together with me?"
"Don't you think this is too cruel?"
"Besides, joining the Lanyue Sect also has its benefits, such as Danta... By the way, do you know that Danta joined the Lanyue Sect before us?"
"Perhaps you don't know yet, but the monthly salary value of our Lanyue Sect's Haoyue lineage has increased by more than ten times compared to before."
Ji Haoyue: “???”
"Just because of this?!"
Ji Haoyue panted heavily, and uttered words from between his teeth: "Just for this, you will let the Haoyue Sect become history and a laughing stock?"
"Which is more important, face or life?"
"Is face more important, or are the lives, resources, and future of all the disciples more important?"
The second elder was extremely stubborn at this moment.
He was the only one who was confronting Ji Haoyue.
Perhaps... it was because he had already made up his mind to die, and wanted to handle this matter alone in exchange for peace for the Haoyue lineage in the future.
He also didn't want to implicate Lu Ming and the other elders.
At this moment, Ji Haoyue, who was already furious after being repeatedly criticized, could no longer hold back and roared, "Okay, okay, okay, you are so good, Second Elder."
"You are so disloyal. If that's the case, I will clean up the mess today."
"Die!!!"
actually···
Ji Haoyue also understood that what the Second Elder said made sense.
Besides, they really had no other choice at that time.
But this is by no means so easy to accept.
If you say it nicely...
Perhaps Ji Haoyue could calm down and have a good chat and analyze the matter.
But you, the Second Elder, kept criticizing me, and...this proposal was also yours, right?
Good, good, good!
I'll kill you and avenge my Haoyue Sect!
Ji Haoyue attacked with hatred, and was about to kill the second elder instantly.
The Second Elder did not dodge or evade, and there was no fear on his face. He even closed his eyes and waited quietly for death.
but···
It was at this moment that Lu Ming took action and rescued the second elder.
At the same time, Gu Qingyun and other great elders and all the elders present "flashed" at the same time, standing in front of the second elder and Lu Ming, and stopping Ji Haoyue.
Ji Haoyue frowned immediately: "What are you doing?!"
"Are you going to protect him?"
“Okay, okay!”
"In that case..."
"Then don't blame this Sect Master..."
He was already furious, and now everyone stood up to oppose him, which made it even more difficult for him to accept and he almost went crazy.
damn it!
How happy I was just now, how sad I am now.
I thought that my era, the era of the Haoyue Sect, had arrived. After all, everything was going smoothly. How could this kind of luck be so amazing? !
result!!!
And you guys are telling me that this is the result, and everything I thought was just my own pathetic fantasy?
Forget about the era that belongs to the Haoyue Sect or the perfect future that belongs to the Haoyue Sect. Now, even the fucking Haoyue Sect is gone.
The most depressing thing is that I have become a 'branch' of the enemy.
This is Nima!!!
This is intolerable. My uncle can tolerate it, but my aunt can't.
My aunt can tolerate it, but I fucking can't.
"Then let's do it together..."
Ji Haoyue was just about to make some harsh remarks and kill the man.
However, he saw that all the elders were looking at him with extremely complicated expressions.
The Grand Elder whom he trusted the most, Gu Qingyun.
But he heard the other party sigh: "Alas."
"Old Sect Master, you..."
"Why rebel?"
Ji Haoyue: “???!”
I...
Am I a fucking rebel?
Why else?
"Yes, old master." The other elders also spoke earnestly, asking: "Why did you rebel?"
I'm Nima!!!
Ji Haoyue was so angry that his whole body was shaking, his head was dizzy, and even his vision was blurry.
Almost had a cerebral blood vessel burst!
What the fuck is this? Why the fuck am I rebelling?
Is this what I call rebellion?
Am I not setting things right?
You guys are simply fucking the opposite of Tian Gang!!!
Seeing him panting like a cow, Gu Qingyun couldn't help but said, "Old Sect Master, don't be anxious. Why don't you listen first and then take action?"
"Listen? What's there to listen to?"
"People with different ideals cannot work together. Since you have made such a choice, don't blame me for being cruel and ruthless…" Ji Haoyue really wanted to kill someone.
Kill them all!
To relieve the hatred in my heart.
Gu Qingyun added: "You are now in the ninth realm, and it is easy for you to kill us. Listen to our 'last words', and it will not be too late to take action."
"Okay, okay, go ahead!" Ji Haoyue suppressed his anger and said, "I want to see if you can come up with something to say!"
"Actually, it's like this."
Gu Qingyun said softly, "We were forced to do this. We did think about resisting, but the oath to heaven has been made. It is a done deal and cannot be changed. Even if you kill us, it will be useless."
“This is one of them.”
"Besides, I don't know if you, old sect master, care about the changes in our Haoyue lineage, whether it's the spirit and strength of our disciples..."
"From a 'realistic' perspective, joining the Lanyue Sect is undoubtedly beneficial, especially for the disciples. There are many benefits. This is the second reason."
"As for the third one..."
"In fact, when we swore, we also included you, but you didn't swear by yourself, so it doesn't have much impact. This...you need to consider it yourself."
"And the most important thing."
"In fact, we have always been a whole. Whether it is the Haoyue Sect or the Haoyue lineage of the Lanyue Sect, nothing has changed. We are still 'autonomous', but the treatment is better and the strength is stronger..."
"If that's the case, what difference does it make to you what you call yourself? Old Sect Master, what you are doing is no different from rebellion."
"Don't think I'm lying to you."
"If you don't believe me, you can just stay for a while and see how the Haoyue clan changes and develops before making a decision. We won't run away anyway. If after a while, you still think we deserve to die, you can come and take our heads anytime."
"What do you think, old master?"
After Gu Qingyun finished speaking, he stared at him calmly.
The other elders also chimed in at this moment: "Yes, old sect master!"
"It may seem embarrassing, and it may seem speechless to face our ancestors, but in fact, there are many benefits, especially in terms of resources and strength. The strength of the disciples is also growing rapidly. In the long run, it will only be more gratifying. I think the ancestors will also feel relieved after knowing this, right?"
"Old Sect Master, please consider your disciples and refrain from rebelling."
"However, if you really can't listen, we have nothing to say, but please, old man, kill us and all the disciples of the Haoyue lineage."
"After all... maybe in your eyes, we are all 'traitors'."
Ji Haoyue was furious: “???!”
"Do you think this Sect Master dares not to do it?"
"The law does not punish the masses?"
"What if I kill you all?"
"That..."
Lu Ming sighed: "Old Sect Master, please do it."
"You?!" Ji Haoyue was furious, but he couldn't utter a complete sentence for a moment. His hand, which was pointing at everyone, was shaking violently.
"you?!"
"This sect master..."
"Old man..."
At this moment, Ji Haoyue really wanted to go crazy and kill everyone.
But...
On second thought, what they said does make sense!
In particular, he thought of a 'definition' problem.
When everyone has voted and you are the only one who has not voted, and you still want to "revive your clan".
in the end···
Who is the 'traitor'?
Good job.
I'm a fucking good guy.
At this moment, Ji Haoyue was stunned.
so···
Redefine the term "anti-thief", right?!
Moreover, the reason why they all asked me, the old sect leader, "why did you rebel?" was because they were now a community of interests, and they were even "instigated" to rebel by the Lanyue Sect's sugar-coated bullets.
That is to say!
Now, I am the only fucking outsider in this world?!
Damn it!
I am the dignified sect leader, but I am the only one who is isolated and excluded?
this···
Is there anything more fucked up than this?!
“···”
Thinking of this, Ji Haoyue's face suddenly turned pale.
His whole body swayed and he almost fell down.
He had never expected this ending, and it was hard for him to accept it.
But what if you don't accept it?
I became an outsider!
I am the one who is isolated.
Even the word "rebellion" needs to be redefined, what else can I do? Can I really just kill them all?
But the problem is, even if I want to do this, I can't do it, right?
Ji Haoyue swept his spiritual sense and found Hai Dongpo, who was no longer hiding his whereabouts.
Although he was not in the Haoyue lineage, he was watching not far from the "doorstep". Obviously, he was a member of the Lanyue Sect, and his purpose was to keep an eye on them and prevent any accidents.
so···
Lin Fan and Lan Yue Zong had already made some fucking arrangements!
Own···
Nothing I do is right.
Want to kill?
There won't be such an opportunity!
Want to be the leader or the boss again?
Feel sorry···
Now I am an outsider!
this···
Are you trying to force me to commit suicide?
Ji Haoyue's sturdy body shook again, and his expression became even uglier, but this time, it was not because of anger, but because of helplessness and powerlessness.
After 'understanding everything', this feeling of powerlessness is truly despairing.
Seeing his expression changing continuously, the elders stopped speaking in a hurry.
Even the second elder, who was stubborn and determined to die, was like this.
You have to give people some time to digest it, right?
just in case···
Have they figured it out?!
······
After a moment, Ji Haoyue's expression gradually calmed down.
Although his eyes and expression were still extremely complicated and entangled, at least they were not as crazy as before. Obviously, his emotions had calmed down a lot.
Seeing this, the elders finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Actually, this..."
Gu Qingyun said tentatively: "Old Sect Master, this, this, although joining the Lanyue Sect is a bit unfair to our ancestors, we have no choice but to do so."
"I think if our ancestors knew about this, they would understand."
"Besides, joining the Lanyue Sect is not all bad. The benefits are also very obvious."
"Do you want to..."
"Do you want something?!" Ji Haoyue looked at him suddenly and said, "Tell me!"
Gu Qingyun's scalp felt numb.
but···
Now that things have come to this, we have to give it a try, even if the chance of success is only one in ten.
If it succeeds, it will be a great achievement!!!
Gu Qingyun's heart suddenly felt hot.
"Do you want to... also try to integrate into the Lanyue Sect?"
"Let's not talk about anything else, in terms of cultivation resources, there must be no difference at all."
"Oh!"
Ji Haoyue sneered: "What a joke, is this the Sect Master who cares about such a small profit?"
"Just cultivation resources...how much can there be?!"
I'm used to being called "this sect master" all the time, but at this moment, I suddenly felt awkward, so I changed my words and called myself "old man": "Besides, if I need cultivation resources, wouldn't I go and earn them myself?"
"Well." Gu Qingyun smiled and said, "Actually, there aren't many."
"For example, elixirs. With your status and strength, if you are willing to join the Lanyue Sect, I estimate that the cultivation elixirs that match your realm must be at least eighth grade!"
"!"
Ji Haoyue's expression suddenly froze.
Damn, eighth grade!
But considering that Danta is here...this is normal.
Isn't it just an eighth-grade one? What's so great about it?! Humph!
Just as he was about to continue mocking, he heard Gu Qingyun say, "Besides, it was probably made by the Emperor of Pills himself."
"At least a dozen a month, right?"
Ji Haoyue's heart was pounding.
What the hell???
A dozen???
And it’s been a month???
This is Nima!!!
"It's very likely that you can continue to take more after you finish eating!"
“???!”
Does this mean... unlimited?!
Damn it!
Ji Haoyue suddenly felt that... he had been careless.
I may not care about a few high-quality pills, and a dozen pills are no big deal. I can grit my teeth and take them. But if I take a dozen pills every month, I can take as many as I can eat...
This is different.
The meaning is completely different!
With such incredible resources, shouldn’t you be able to take off immediately?
Why did they spend so much money to get Lu Ming back? Wasn't it just because they were dreaming of such a day?
But even in my original fantasy, I never thought that I would be able to eat so many eighth or ninth grade elixirs!
Now you tell me that all I have to do is join the Lanyue Sect?
Why didn’t you say so earlier?
Why the hell didn't you say that earlier?!
Ji Haoyue glared at Gu Qingyun.
The latter thought that Ji Haoyue felt that he was "insulting" him, so he quickly smiled bitterly and lowered his head: "Don't blame me, old sect master, it's just that, alas..."
He didn't know what to say.
At this moment, Ji Haoyue was the one who felt uncomfortable.
Riding a tiger is difficult to get off!!!
In other words, there are no steps!
I almost got angry and killed someone just now, and I also spoke wildly and mocked that "those resources" were nothing. Now I can't just say that I really want them, right?
Do they still want to save face?
this···
What should I do?
It's not that the elixir is so fragrant, nor is it that Ji Haoyue is so spineless, but...
He really had no other choice.
The Haoyue Sect is gone!
The "people's support" of the Haoyue clan is not towards him now, and he has become an outsider instead.
Furthermore, they all swore an oath to the heavens.
So, there is no way for me to change all this.
Either kill them all - if he can't kill them all, Hai Dongbo will definitely stop him, and even beat him to death. He is a veteran of the ninth realm, stronger than himself.
Otherwise, he could only "go far away" by himself, like a stray dog, and never have anything to do with the Lanyue Sect and the Haoyue lineage again, or he could become their enemy and kill a few of them when he gets the chance in the future.
Apart from this, there is only one other choice.
——
Put aside personal honor and disgrace and continue to protect the Haoyue lineage.
Apart from these three options, there are no other possibilities.
Compared with the first two possibilities, Ji Haoyue felt that the third option was actually a little bit better.
I already had this idea, and with such a fragrant pill...
Didn't this psychological defense line collapse in an instant?
But the problem is, my attitude just now was too tough and it is difficult to change now. What should I do?
How can I integrate into it naturally and smoothly without losing face, and enjoy the highest level of benefits every month?
Waiting online, pretty urgent.
For a moment, the atmosphere was a little awkward.
It's a dull moment!
Lu Ming saw all of this and wanted to laugh but couldn't, feeling uncomfortable.
Those in power are confused!
These elders had preconceived ideas and naturally felt that the situation was extremely difficult at the moment.
But Lu Ming saw it clearly.
He had been planning and considering the various situations that would arise at this moment from the very beginning, so he had already made up his mind, and he had been paying attention to every aspect of Ji Haoyue, including micro-expressions and so on.
Right now.
Lu Ming was certain that Ji Haoyue must be moved.
perhaps···
Just a trace.
But this little bit can be cultivated into a "big lump"!
As long as you have the intention, it is not impossible and there is great potential!
But...
He also knew very well that he needed to give Ji Haoyue a way out.
He is the old sect leader and a famous figure, and now he is at the ninth level. We can't let him lose all his dignity and turn around and say that he is willing to join the Lanyue Sect, right?
Impossible!
Even if others want to join, it is impossible for them to agree at this moment.
so···
Have to 'compromise'.
Got to give him a way out.
After a brief stalemate, Lu Ming said sincerely, "Old Sect Master, actually... at the beginning, I was also opposed to joining the Lanyue Sect, and I felt very uncomfortable."
“But after this period of time, I found that if I put aside my prejudices and look at the problem and accept the facts, in fact, integrating into the Lanyue Sect is not a bad thing.”
"I won't talk about the monthly allowance and resources. The elders have already talked about it many times."
"In addition to this, there are also techniques, emperor scriptures, invincible techniques, etc. There are also many more, especially the invincible techniques. Almost every disciple of Lanyue Sect has one set. As for the disciples of our Haoyue lineage, as long as they have made contributions, they can also practice..."
"As for magic weapons, as everyone knows, the weapon-refining lineage of the Lanyue Sect is actually the original Huode Sect. Everyone knows the Huode Sect's weapon-refining level. It is a remarkable skill."
"Now that we are 'one of our own', how can they not do their best to refine weapons for us? And we can even give them discounts, or even free of charge!"
"Besides, as for other enemies, if anything happens in the future, the Lanyue Sect will share the burden. They may even be the ones who bear the brunt..."
“But don’t underestimate the Lanyue Sect. Perhaps the main line alone is not that strong, but we only knew from that battle that the Lanyue Sect has quietly gathered a force that cannot be underestimated.”
"In fact, this is also a very important benefit, especially in such a troubled time as the Golden Age..."
Analyze together.
This made Ji Haoyue even more excited and uncomfortable.
How could I not understand what you said?
I'm not a fool!
Putting aside the prejudices in our hearts, these benefits are naturally real.
But···
Is it so easy to put aside the prejudices accumulated over the years?
Besides, what's the point of me leaving it behind? There's no way out!
Ji Haoyue watched silently.
The elders nodded in agreement, which made him even more depressed.
At this moment, Lu Ming changed the subject: "Of course, I also know that prejudice in people's hearts is a mountain that is difficult to destroy. It is difficult for you, the old sect master, to accept all this in a short period of time."
"but···"
"Why don't you stay and take a look?"
"Walk around and have a look around our Haoyue clan. Don't talk about joining us, or talking about resources."
"Let's observe the development of our Haoyue lineage, see the spirit and state of the disciples, the progress of their cultivation, etc., and then make a comprehensive comparison between the present and the past Haoyue Sect periods to see which period has developed better."
“You can also quietly ask your disciples for their opinions and see which period they prefer.”
"After all, old sect master, you have been busy for the sect all your life. I think you must also hope from the bottom of your heart that the sect will be better and that your disciples will have a brighter future, right?"
"It is hard to ignore the sectarian bias, but...isn't the achievement and future of the disciples more important?"
"So I'm thinking, old sect master, are you going to stay or go, join the Lanyue Sect or leave, or kill us all... It's not too late to make a decision after you understand everything."
"What do you think?"
Hearing this, Ji Haoyue's mood suddenly cleared up.
This proposal...
That’s great!
Not only did he give himself a way out, but he was also able to save his face. He was even so considerate as to come up with an excuse for himself... Bah, an excuse.
So thoughtful!
All you have to do is go down the stairs, and you don’t even have to think about finding a reason.
this···
This is the successor I need!
He is worthy of being the Elder Lu that I have high hopes for.
Thinking of this, Ji Haoyue glared at Gu Qingyun and the others fiercely, then sighed softly: "Alas, what you said... is really to my liking."
"I was shocked to hear the tragic news. I really wanted to kill you all and destroy the entire Haoyue Sect to preserve the reputation of our Haoyue Sect that has lasted for hundreds of thousands of years."
"But when I was about to do it, I felt like my heart was being torn apart. I just couldn't do it."
"The Haoyue Sect is certainly important, and its reputation is certainly important, but... without people, where does the sect come from?"
"The sect is people-oriented."
"Disciples are the future of the sect."
"What's more..."
After another long sigh, Ji Haoyue continued, "Most of the elders present are my fellow apprentices, and the supreme elders are my elders. They took good care of me in the past."
"How many of the disciples in the sect were raised by me?"
"Ruyan at the door is my personal disciple. I personally raised him since he was young. It's no exaggeration to say that I raised him with my whole life."
"How can this old man bear to kill him?"
"If it weren't for the fact that what you did was so ruthless, it would be too hard for me to accept..."
"That's all. That's all."
"What Elder Lu said makes sense."
"It's all for the sect. It's just that everyone has chosen a different path and has different ideas. I will stay here for the time being and watch the development of Haoyue... Haoyue's lineage."
"If it is as good as you say, I will abandon my personal honor and join the Lanyue Sect and continue to protect the Haoyue lineage. What's wrong with that?!"
"But if I find out, you've deceived me..."
"Even if I can't bear it, I will never be merciful!!!"
"Yes, old master!"
The elders were immediately overjoyed.
Why would they want to fall out with Ji Haoyue?
It's nothing more than a last resort.
As for elixirs, resources, etc., although they are attractive, the biggest difference between humans and animals is that humans have emotions, and many people attach great importance to emotions.
Unless there is no other way out, who would be willing to stand on the opposite side?
At this moment, although Ji Haoyue has not fully agreed, at least there is this possibility.
Maybe after a while, we are still from the same school?!
It’s just that they have changed from being fellow disciples of the Haoyue Sect to being fellow disciples of the Lanyue Sect.
emmmm···
Isn't it a kind of ntr... No, isn't it a beautiful story?
······
"Halfway accomplished?"
"No, I should say... we have already achieved 90% or more of the success."
Lu Ming smiled slightly.
As long as Ji Haoyue is moved and willing to stay, I have plenty of ways to make him integrate slowly.
Just have fun.
PUA.
There are many opportunities and a variety of means.
I'm not afraid of you being vigilant, I'm just afraid that you won't give me a chance.
Seeing that they all smiled, Ji Haoyue still snorted coldly to save face: "Humph!"
"What are you happy about?"
"If you can't satisfy me, I won't show mercy!"
Suddenly, the atmosphere became more lively.
Ji Haoyue added: "However, you should stop calling me the old sect master. Since you have all joined the Lanyue Sect and made a vow, you must follow the rules."
"It's inappropriate to call me the old sect master."
"If the people on the main lineage heard this, they would think you had ulterior motives!"
"As for this period of time... I will stay in the Haoyue clan temporarily as a guest and an old friend of yours."
"this···"
"Okay."
Everyone nodded and agreed.
"In this case, I will go around and take a look."
"I want to see if joining the Lanyue Sect really has as many benefits as you say."
"snort!"
Ji Haoyue···
In fact, I already believed it most of the time.
But you can’t show it!
You have to pretend, you still have to save face.
Moreover, I can't make a decision based on guesswork, I still need to confirm it myself.
Otherwise, no matter which choice you make, it will be problematic and unacceptable.
"please."
Lu Ming smiled slightly and said, "You know the Haoyue clan better than any of us, so we won't accompany you, lest... you mistakenly think that we have made arrangements in advance."
"Anyone belonging to the Haoyue lineage can go."
"But there is one thing. Strictly speaking, every blade of grass and every tree of the Haoyue lineage now belongs to the Lanyue Sect, so..."
“Am I that kind of person?!” Ji Haoyue’s face darkened.
This is like treating yourself as a thief!
This is simply outrageous.
Are you that kind of person?
Even though I am extremely poor and have nothing, I can't possibly steal anything, right? !
Just as he was about to lose his temper, Lu Ming said, "If you still feel dissatisfied, or feel that you can't see the 'truth' just by staying in the Haoyue lineage, I can also ask the sect master to let you go to the main lineage and see everything with your own eyes."
"What do you...think?"
Ji Haoyue: “…”
Let me go to Lanyue Sect to take a look?
Don’t I have any dignity?!
How could this be possible?
“No need!”
Ji Haoyue disappeared in the meeting room in a flash.
"call."
Lu Ming finally breathed a sigh of relief and said to the elders, "Everyone can rest assured. Although this big rock has not completely fallen to the ground, it has at least fallen halfway, right?"
The elders nodded one after another.
This makes me feel a little relieved.
“I was scared to death!”
"I thought... we were going to fight each other."
“Fortunately, we have a tacit understanding and an unprecedentedly unified attitude. Old Sect Leader... Ahem, Fellow Daoist Ji is also, well, relatively calm.” The elder originally wanted to say that Ji Haoyue was also helpless.
But when the words came to his lips, he changed them to something a little nicer.
"Fortunately, it seems that everyone is happy at the moment. If he is willing to stay in the end, it will really be a perfect ending."
"This matter is... difficult, but not impossible." Gu Qingyun pondered and said, "Based on my understanding of him, he has been wholeheartedly devoted to the sect over the years. He has no place to go outside and does not have many friends."
"If he really leaves our Haoyue lineage, he will be completely alone, without any ties. However, he does not practice the ruthless way, so it should be impossible."
"Unless we disappoint him, but given the current state of our Haoyue clan, it is unlikely that we will disappoint him, right?"
"Indeed."
Everyone laughed.
The Second Elder suddenly said, "But speaking of which, Grand Elder, you were really brave just now. You actually dared to persuade Fellow Daoist Ji to join the Lanyue Sect. You are really not afraid of his rage."
"Well, ahem." Gu Qingyun stroked his beard and sighed, "As the saying goes, one has to bear the emperor's worries when he eats his salary. Now that we are all members of the Lanyue Sect, we naturally have to consider the Lanyue Sect."
"Besides, if he is willing to stay, it will be of great benefit to our Haoyue clan!"
"That's right..." Everyone had no doubt about it.
The Great Elder laughed at this moment and said, "It's just a matter of eating the emperor's salary and worrying about the emperor. It's just seeking wealth and honor in danger. If Fellow Daoist Ji agrees, such a contribution..."
"Let's not talk about anything else. It must be enough to exchange for an emperor's scripture or an invincible technique, right?"
Everyone was stunned.
Then he instantly became furious.
Oh my god!!!
I see?!
"!!!"
"Great Grand Elder, you are so good. We all thought you were a man with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and you were honest and didn't talk much. But we didn't expect that you were such a treacherous person?!"
“This is simply outrageous.”
"You almost took all the credit!"
"No, I have to show my face in front of Fellow Daoist Ji more and persuade him more in the future. If he joins Lanyue Sect in the future, I will also have a share of the credit!"
"Elder Wu, you just need to understand these words in your heart. Why say them out loud? Isn't this just adding a lot of competitors for no reason?!" someone was annoyed.
Elder Wu was stunned.
Then I took a closer look and found that everyone's eyes were shining. It was obvious that they were all excited!
Damn it!
Careless!
He beat his chest and stamped his feet.
At this moment, the Great Elder said cheerfully: "You are right."
"The Grand Elder is indeed a very honest man who doesn't talk much!"
"When people get old, they don't tell the truth much."
Everyone: “…?!”
Good job!
That really makes sense!!!
······
"Is this year's crisis over?"
Midnight.
Seeing that the second day was just around the corner, Lin Fan breathed a sigh of relief: "In that case, we can indeed make more preparations and nip the crisis in the bud."
"Speaking of which..."
"This little crisis is perverted enough!"
It is said to be a small crisis once a year, but in reality, it is the ninth level that has the potential to go crazy.
Even if he had just entered the ninth realm, it was still extremely "astonishing" and abnormal.
Although it seemed that Lin Fan was well prepared and Hai Dongpo was nearby to support him, the problem was not considered in that way.
In essence, it is just a small crisis that occurs once a year. Now a cultivator of the ninth realm has appeared. This is indeed abnormal.
but···
Judging from the power and connections he currently possesses, an "enemy" who has just entered the ninth realm is indeed not a major crisis.
“···”
"If that's the case..."
"In a few years or even decades, will the holy land be destroyed by the small crises every year?!"
"!"
This idea is outrageous, but it is not impossible.
After all, the strongest person in the small crisis eleven years ago was only at the fifth level, but now, wow~~~
In another ten years, it is not impossible that a small crisis will hit the holy land.
"Damn, my balls hurt!"
"But it's good to get through it."
Lin Fan began to make arrangements for the next stage.
First, Haidongpo withdrew.
And since he is a partner rather than a subordinate, Lin Fan will not ask what Hai Dongpo will do next, nor will he make any arrangements.
"My next 'work focus' will be to fully digest the Haoyue lineage."
"This matter requires more thought and time to achieve."
"From the moment Ji Haoyue is swallowed, the Haoyue Sect will be considered to have completely become the Haoyue lineage, and there is no need to worry about them having other intentions."
"As for the disciples..."
"Hi."
"They all have their own paths to take, so they just need to grow up as quickly as possible."
"But this year's opening ceremony..."
"In three days."
"We need to get this done first."
"Speaking of this, the Hongwu Immortal Alliance founded by the wandering immortal Hongwu in Hongwu Immortal City is not doing well. I'm afraid that they won't be able to recruit many disciples this year."
Lin Fan frowned slightly.
The Hongwu Immortal Alliance was causing trouble last year.
This directly led to the Lanyue Sect being left out in the cold. Although there were still people coming to pay homage to the sect, compared with the past, only one in ten people remained.
This is not good news!
"but..."
“It is worth mentioning that now I am…”
"You should be fearless now."
Lin Fan narrowed his eyes slightly: "If there really is a conflict and we can't win, it doesn't matter if we protect ourselves or escape."
The Haoyue lineage joins the Lanyue Sect!
Millions of disciples, plus so many elders...
There are many talented people!
Especially the elders, almost every one of them has a talent at A level or above.
In other words, the number of people with whom Lin Fan could share his combat power and talents directly... skyrocketed!
Now, as long as he turns on 'full sharing' and uses his own Three Flowers Gathering at the Top of the Head, he is confident that he can defeat one or two low-level ninth realms. However, whether he can defeat the immortal Hongwu is also a question.
"After all, we don't know how many calamities of a Loose Immortal he is."
Lin Fan sighed softly.
"So...if we can avoid a direct conflict, it's better not to have one for the time being."
"Fortunately, even if the main lineage can't accept many disciples, the Haoyue lineage can still accept some."
"But it should be worse than before..."
"It's good news that it's just OK. There's no need to worry too much."
Lin Fan was mentally prepared for these things.
The Haoyue lineage will definitely be affected when they open their mountain gates this year.
Over the years, the fortune of the Haoyue Sect seems to have been on a downward trend. There were not many geniuses there to begin with, and coupled with this time when it encountered a major change and was annexed by the Lanyue Sect, those who wanted to pay homage to the sect must think carefully.
So, the number will decrease again.
But as long as the reduction is not too much, it is not unacceptable.
In comparison, the extra disciples within a year are not worth the risk of going against the Hongwu Immortal Alliance and the Sanxian Hongwu!
"The twelve tribulations of a Loose Immortal, each one leads to a journey to heaven."
Lin Fan sighed.
After reaching the ninth level of the immortal realm, one must overcome the tribulation and the heavenly tribulation to ascend to become an immortal.
If you can't make it through, you will either be struck by the heavenly calamity and your soul will be shattered.
If you are lucky or well prepared, you may have a chance to transform into a wandering immortal.
A wandering immortal must pass through tribulation once every five hundred years.
If you pass it once, you will become a one-calamity immortal; if you pass it twice, you will become a two-calamity immortal, and so on.
The combat power of a newly-disbanded immortal is roughly equivalent to that of an ordinary ninth-level cultivator.
However, every time you overcome a tribulation, your combat power will soar!
One kalpa is approximately equal to the fourth level of the ninth realm, and two kalpas are approximately equal to the fifth level.
A six-tribulation immortal is equivalent to the combat power of a perfect cultivator in the ninth realm.
And the Seven Tribulations Loose Immortals...
That is the real land immortal who can fight against immortals!
When one reaches the twelfth tribulation, one will ascend to heaven instantly, and after ascending, one will directly reach the realm of true immortality!
Immortals, true immortals, celestial immortals...
The huge span and strong strength are evident from this!
but···
Although immortals may seem awesome, in reality, they are by no means perfect.
The calamity of scattered immortals is too difficult.
It was so difficult that even the world's most talented people couldn't do it. Lin Fan estimated that only the "son of heaven" would have no chance. (End of this chapter)
