"Hehehe!" A light laughter came from a distance, and soon two figures appeared in front of everyone.

The one who came from the Yin Yang Sect was a female Nascent Soul ancestor who looked very charming, but if you looked closely, you would see the vicissitudes of life in her eyes, which were the marks left by the years on her.

"How come there is such a handsome young man at this party?" The female Nascent Soul ancestor stared at Li Yuanba's face, her voice full of charm.

Li Yuanba's aura rose, and the divine light in his eyes was as real as substance, with traces of body refining aura belonging to a great elder emanating from his body.

He was resisting the charm of the female Yuanying ancestor from the Yin Yang Sect. Fortunately, the female Yuanying ancestor had restrained herself. There were quite a few Yuanying ancestors here, and she did not use her full strength to charm him, so he was able to maintain his self-control under the charm of the female Yuanying ancestor.

"Fellow Daoist Lan, are you ready to start a war?" Patriarch Lu asked in a deep voice.

Ancestor Jian was more direct. A sharp sword intent had already enveloped Ancestor Lan, ready to launch a full-strength attack at any time.

"Don't be so nervous, it's just a little joke!" Elder Lan Weiyan slightly turned her body to avoid Elder Jian's sword intent, and said with a chuckle.

Even though Sword Patriarch has just been promoted to the Nascent Soul stage and has not yet developed a very strong Nascent Soul combat power, one must know that Sword Patriarch is a sword cultivator. No matter how weak a sword cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage is, he can still pose a threat to other Nascent Soul ancestors.

Not to mention that Elder Lu was there, if a fight really broke out, she would probably suffer a great loss.

Elder Lan Weiyan looked at Li Yuanba with some pity. Li Yuanba's appearance was unlike anything she had ever seen before.

For the female Yuanying ancestor of the Yin Yang Sect, a male cultivator like Li Yuanba is what she desires.

"This is Jian Wuwei's disciple. You'd better put away those dirty thoughts, otherwise I don't mind fighting with you!" Patriarch Lu warned in a deep voice.

A fighting spirit also flashed in Patriarch Jian's eyes. He originally thought that he had no chance to fight against the Nascent Soul Patriarchs as all the Nascent Soul Patriarchs were so friendly. He did not expect that Patriarch Lan Weiyan would take the initiative to provoke him.

Sword cultivators rely on fighting to improve themselves. Old Ancestor Jian has recently mastered several secret techniques from the Nascent Soul Chapter of the 'Sword Intent Soaring to the Sky' and is looking for an opponent to test his abilities against.

As for the fact that he had just been promoted and his strength could not be compared with the veteran ancestor Lan Weiyan, he didn't care at all. Without the mentality to face pressure, how could he become a good swordsman?

"You are too serious!" Elder Lan Weiyan put away his thoughts and said with a smile.

Her eyes fell on Li Shiming again. Although Li Shiming was not as handsome as Li Yuanba, he was also very young.

Being able to reach the middle stage of the Golden Core realm at this age, he is a young hero worth associating with.

Considering her age, it would not be a problem for her to call Li Shiming and Li Yuanba teenagers.

In the world of cultivation, those in their forties are indeed still considered young. The lifespan of a Jindan stage cultivator is as long as five hundred years, and their forties are just the beginning.

"Young man, are you willing to join the Yin-Yang Sect? I can promise my daughter to you!" Elder Lan Weiyan looked at Li Shiming, pointed at the female elder who came with her and said with a smile.

She also understood that all those who came this time were related to the Yuanying Ancestor, so she just habitually brought a little charm and did not really use the secret method of charm.

But just as she said this, all the Nascent Soul ancestors present locked their eyes on her and looked at Li Shiming at the same time, as if to see what Li Shiming's attitude was.

Elder Ancestor Lan Weiyan was shocked. Although she acted casually, she was not stupid. When she found something wrong, she realized that she seemed to have provoked the wrong person.

"Ancestor Lan, Li Shiming is a disciple of the Shushan Sect, and it is not convenient for him to join the Yin Yang Sect!" Li Shiming said lightly.

“Haha, I told you, besides Master Li, who else is so young and promising!” Elder Lan Weiyan immediately changed her tone and praised without any seductiveness.

However, her praise once again made the cultivators look strange, because Li Yuanba at the scene was about the same age as Li Shiming, and had similar cultivation, and was even at a higher level.

Except that Li Yuanba is not a master of alchemy, Li Yuanba can be compared with Li Shiming's talent for cultivation.

"Okay, everyone is here, let's go in!" Patriarch Lu was speechless about Patriarch Lan Weiyan's style of doing things. After all, he was still the master, so he tried to smooth things over.

Ancestor Lan Weiyan didn't care about it. That's the good thing about the Yin-Yang Sect: they don't care much about other people's opinions.

They all came to the place on the top of the mountain which had been prepared long ago, and the Yuanying ancestors exchanged greetings with each other for a while.

"Thank you all fellow Taoists for coming to attend the promotion celebration of my disciple Jian Wuwei. Jian Wuwei has become one of us and will work with us to maintain the stability of the Northern Shu continent!" Patriarch Lu coughed lightly, and after waiting for the Nascent Soul ancestors to look over, he said in a deep voice.

"According to the rules, Jian Wuwei needs to show some strength for everyone to judge!" He gestured to Ancestor Jian and continued.

The Yuanying ancestors were all familiar with each other and there was no need for too much courtesy. Apart from some necessary links, no extra words needed to be said, so Ancestor Lu spoke very directly.

"Hello fellow Taoists, my natal flying sword has not yet recovered. In addition, the formation here has limited endurance. I will perform according to the formation's upper limit!" said Patriarch Jian with a slight bow to the Nascent Soul ancestors.

If the Yuanying Patriarch really used his full strength, he would only be safe when he reached the thirty-third level.

All the Nascent Soul ancestors present had extraordinary eyesight. As long as Sword Ancestor displayed part of his strength, the Nascent Soul ancestors would be able to judge Sword Ancestor's combat power.

The sword spirit of Sword Ancestor is awe-inspiring. He has not been in the Nascent Soul stage for long, but the inheritance of the "Sword Will Soaring to the Sky" is extremely comprehensive, allowing him to form a certain combat power as soon as possible.

Although he tried to suppress the sword intent, all the Nascent Soul ancestors present felt a biting chill. Before the sword intent was released, they could already feel the terrifying power on the spiritual level.

Several Nascent Soul ancestors looked at each other, and horror flashed in each other's eyes.

Especially Venerable Huike, there was worry in his eyes. It was because Qianye Temple lost Venerable Huijing, while Senluo Sect gained such a sword-cultivating Nascent Soul.

The Sword Patriarch stretched out his hand and drew it in front of him. A sword light appeared and slashed the void in front of him.

A crack appeared in the void, which lasted for ten breaths before slowly disappearing.

The Yuanying ancestors present at the scene could gather their strength and strike out in one blow, which could break the void and form a crack, but it would not be easy to make the crack last for ten breaths.

But Elder Jian had just broken through to become a Nascent Soul Patriarch and he already possessed such abilities. How could this not make the Nascent Soul Patriarchs extremely shocked?

The sword cultivator's terror was fully revealed. The Nascent Soul ancestors had already thought of it. By the time Sword Cultivator had completely mastered the power of the Nascent Soul stage, there would be no Nascent Soul ancestor present who would be able to block Sword Cultivator's sword intent.

However, they soon realized one thing: Ancestor Jian would not stay in the Northern Shu Continent for long.

This is good news. No matter whether it is the righteous or evil sects, no one wants to have such a powerful sword cultivator's Nascent Soul disrupt the previous balance of power.

"Sword cultivators are indeed powerful!" Elder Zuo exclaimed.

"Yes, if fellow swordsman had been promoted earlier, it would have been much easier for us to deal with that guy!" Patriarch Lou nodded in response.

Ancestor Lan Weiyan's eyes flickered, and she was glad that she did not have a conflict with Ancestor Jian. She also gave up the last bit of thought about Li Yuanba.

Of course, it is unknown whether she still has any ideas after Ancestor Jian leaves the Northern Shu Continent.

"I suggest that Jian Wuwei can be allocated the full amount of fourth-grade resources starting this year!" Patriarch Lu said with a smile.

When a cultivator is promoted to the Nascent Soul stage, he usually does not get the full share of the fourth-grade resources, but instead gets a fraction of it based on his combat power. As his combat power increases, he will get an increasing share.

Patriarch Lu's proposal was naturally based on the combat power demonstrated by Patriarch Jian.

"I agree!" Patriarch Zhan was the first to express his opinion.

"Agree!" Patriarch Zuo continued.

"Agree!" After waiting for a while, Lou Song, the ancestor of the Disha Sect, said.

"Amitabha, our temple agrees!" Venerable Huike also expressed his opinion.

"Haha, it seems that it doesn't matter whether I express my opinion or not, so I agree too!" Elder Lan Weiyan said with a smile.

Indeed, if the four major sects plus the Senluo Sect itself, that is, all five major sects, agreed, it would be useless even if Patriarch Lan Weiyan opposed.

As for the ancestor Ling Xueling of Beishu Trading Company, he did not express any opinion at all. The six major sects and Beishu Trading Company jointly distributed the fourth-grade resources, but Beishu Trading Company did not have the management authority.

This time the vote was passed very easily, which is extremely rare.

In the past, the distribution of Grade 4 resources always took a long time to discuss.

But all the Nascent Soul ancestors present knew why this was the case. The fourth-grade resources that the Sword Ancestor could obtain were very limited.

Grade four resources are not available every year. Generally, a batch is produced every ten years or even dozens or hundreds of years. After a batch comes out, it is distributed according to commonly recognized rules.

If Ancestor Jian had stayed in the Northern Shu Continent for another ten years, he would probably have been allocated only a very small amount of fourth-grade resources.

It is extremely uneconomical to offend a powerful sword cultivator Nascent Soul for such a small amount of resources, and the Nascent Soul ancestors would never do that.

"Next is the performance of the younger generations. Please feel free to give us your comments and suggestions!" Patriarch Lu smiled with satisfaction and waved his hand.

Li Shiming was slightly stunned. He didn't know about this item. The person he brought was Ye Jingxian, his senior sister, whose strength was too weak.

"Senior Sister, just take a closer look!" He turned and said to Ye Jingxian.

Ye Jingxian nodded obediently. She had learned a lot today.

The number of Nascent Soul ancestors she had seen today was more than the number of Nascent Soul Talent ancestors she had seen before.

Everyone here is a legendary figure, and yet they are right in front of us.

"Zhihuo asks for advice from donor Li Yuanba!" Zhihuo Arhat walked aside first, nodded to Li Yuanba and said.

Venerable Huike smiled and said nothing.

Even Patriarch Lu and Patriarch Jian were reluctant to interfere in the competition between the younger generations, as this was originally one of the parts of this gathering.

This was originally agreed upon so that the younger generations could display themselves in front of the Yuanying Patriarch, receive his guidance, and also get to know other powerful cultivators of the same level.

You have to know that the grand elders of the major sects rarely take action, and the chances of two grand elders from different sects meeting and fighting are very rare.

This arrangement is very beneficial to the growth of the Great Elder. Whether it is fighting with the Great Elder of the same level or receiving guidance from the Nascent Soul Ancestor, it will enhance the Great Elder's foundation and increase the possibility of being promoted to the Nascent Soul stage.

Except for Ye Jingxian, all those who were able to be brought here are top talents from major sects who have the hope of becoming Nascent Soul cultivators.

The Great Arhat of Wisdom and Fire came to find Li Yuanba. If Li Yuanba had not shown the physical training strength of a great elder, perhaps Patriarch Jian would have really stopped him. However, Li Yuanba had the corresponding combat power, so Patriarch Jian would not say much.

Of course, all the monks present knew about the grudge between Qianye Temple and Li Yuanba. It was not a secret. Even if they didn’t know, other monks would tell them.

Li Yuanba did not refuse, as such an occasion did not allow him to refuse.

"Great Arhat of Wisdom and Fire, please come in!" He came to the center of the field and bowed to the Great Arhat of Wisdom and Fire.

Flames rose from the body of the Great Arhat of Wisdom and Fire, and a fire phoenix flew out, pouncing towards Li Yuanba with terrifyingly high temperature.

As the Great Arhat of Wisdom and Fire launched an attack, the flames on his body rose again, and the second attack was almost condensed.

Li Yuanba frowned. This great elder who was proficient in fire magic was extremely troublesome to deal with. Unless he attacked him at close range, he would always be suppressed by the opponent.

He sneered. What was he still worried about now? Was he really worried that exposing his divine power would bring him trouble?

Chiba Temple knew that he had mastered the power of divine feet, but Chiba Temple had never publicized it to the outside world, which is why the secret was kept secret.

But now he is already in the middle stage of the Golden Core, and with the support of Ancestor Jian and Ancestor Lu, why should he hide?

As he thought of this, a white lotus appeared under his feet.

"Lotus blooms with every step!" Ancestor Lu exclaimed.

Ancestor Jian also showed a look of surprise on his face, but it soon turned into a smile.

The 'divine power of feet' is a magical power mastered by Venerable Huike. With this magical power, Venerable Huike is almost invincible among Nascent Soul cultivators.

Allowing a sword cultivator to master the 'divine foot skill' means that he can exert his sword power to 100% without having to worry about his own safety.

The feeling of being able to use the flying sword at full power to attack the enemy, making it impossible for the enemy to escape and impossible for the attacker to attack, is what every sword practitioner wants.

The other Yuanying ancestors looked at Li Yuanba and then at Venerable Huike. If they didn't know that Li Yuanba was the disciple of Patriarch Jian, they might have thought that Li Yuanba was the disciple of Venerable Huike.

Only Venerable Huike looked unhappy. It had been a secret that Li Yuanba had mastered the power of divine feet. Now that the secret was revealed, Qianye Temple lost face.

Most importantly, another secret of Li Yuanba might not be kept secret.

However, he quickly realized that Li Yuanba had acquired the ability of supernatural powers for many years. Exposing it now could only be regarded as Li Yuanba's talent in this field, and it would not make people suspect that Li Yuanba might be the reincarnation of a great Buddhist.
