At the summit of the main peak, clouds and mist swirl around, creating a scene resembling a fairyland.
Several magnificent halls stand in a well-organized manner.
Majestic and imposing, with a powerful and majestic presence, it also exudes a sense of awe.
Lin Xiuyuan stepped onto this place along the winding mountain road. It was his first time here, and he couldn't help but feel a sense of awe.
The main feature was the powerful and unfathomable aura emanating from the front!
This adds even more to the sense of majesty.
This is where the elders hold their meetings.
Judging from the aura emanating from them, it is not difficult to deduce that several elders have already arrived.
Yes, the only ones who can make specific arrangements for them are the elders of the ten seats, and the elders who come to participate in the meeting.
After all, they have reached the level of core disciples and are all geniuses with the potential to become Golden Core True Persons. Once they reach the stage of graduation, more than half of them will become members of the Elder Council.
If not... then he will be the chief disciple of his generation, and will later become a seated elder!
At this time, their status was second only to the elders, and even surpassed that of many deacons!
now.
A group of people were already waiting in front of one of the main halls.
But there were only about ten people... In previous eras, that would have been about right.
However, given the current circumstances, this number is much smaller than expected.
Due to the opening of Hengyang Secret Realm.
The number of disciples at the Purple Mansion stage will inevitably increase many times over.
The number of disciples in the Purple Mansion is the highest in five hundred years.
Logically speaking, there shouldn't be so few people coming.
But upon further reflection, Lin Xiuyuan understood the reason.
Most people took advantage of this opportunity to advance to the Purple Mansion stage, but compared to these top geniuses, the true 'core disciples', they were a step behind.
Naturally, the chances of competing for the top spot with these true geniuses are too slim.
Going out to guard posts might lead to trouble, and the resources won't be much more abundant. More likely, the cultivation environment will be even worse.
Therefore, most people would not choose to waste their energy! The chances of competing for the top spot were slim to begin with, and participating in the competition would only mean being a runner-up. It would be better to stay in the sect and cultivate peacefully.
As long as one can make steady progress and achieve the Golden Core True Person status, one's status and position will not be much lower than those of the chief disciples.
At most, it's just that the current level of resources can't match it.
However, Wang Qiuhe did not come, which surprised him.
But perhaps his influence played a part...
Lin Xiuyuan sighed inwardly; this was something that could not be helped.
The path to immortality is fierce, and the path to the Great Dao is solitary!
If the other party can seize this opportunity to accelerate their progress and improve their cultivation, and break through to the Golden Core stage as soon as possible, it won't be any worse than obtaining the chief position.
Therefore, among the group at this moment, only two possess spiritual veins.
I had met one of them before, but I had never met the other spiritual lineage brother.
The former was the young man from the Trial Tower who was at odds with him.
His identity is not hard to guess.
Apart from that prodigy from the Wang family, there was no one else.
It was Wang Qiuhai, the most promising prodigy in the Wang family's current generation, whose talent slightly surpassed that of Wang Qiuhe and who was in the core of the Wang family's cultivation sequence!
Previously in the Trial Tower, the opponent was at the mid-stage of the Purple Mansion realm, but now he is almost approaching the late stage.
This shows how powerful the other party's talent in cultivation is, in addition to their talent in talismanic arts.
No wonder this person became a key member of the Wang family's training program, even at the cost of suppressing a prodigy like Wang Qiuhe.
Among the rest, three were from the Xuan lineage, two from the Ming lineage, and six from the Yun lineage.
Lin Xiuyuan knew only a few people, such as Liu Yuan from the Xuanmai lineage, and Wang Jin and Rong Fuzhen from the Yunmai lineage!
As for those with clear lineage, I rarely see them and don't recognize them.
The rest of these people were all senior disciples who, through their own talent, broke through to the Purple Mansion realm in one fell swoop.
In contrast, Liu Yuan, Wang Jin, Rong Fuzhen, and others broke through to the Purple Mansion stage by taking advantage of this opportunity.
The contrast is quite obvious. Among them, Wang Jin, who is more talented, broke through to the mid-stage of the Purple Mansion realm in the Spirit Spring Cave, while the others are still hovering in the early stage, but they are also in the perfect realm.
Lin Xiuyuan, in particular, seems to be still some distance from the initial stage of perfect cultivation.
Those older disciples all possessed profound mid-stage cultivation levels.
In particular, two or three of them in the Cloud Vein have already reached the mid-stage perfection and seem ready to break through to the late stage at any time.
They are already far ahead.
They were basically the main force participating in the Dai Viet Sword Competition!
This explains why, despite the large number of disciples at the Purple Mansion stage in this generation, only a small number are competing for the position of guardian.
Because the chances of competing with these geniuses are simply slim!
These people, having cultivated to such a level, will likely be the majority of the Golden Core cultivators in the sect in the future!
If it weren't for Lin Xiuyuan, Wang Qiuhe would still have a good chance of winning the chief position by competing with the two senior brothers from the Spirit Vein.
But now that Lin Xiuyuan has joined the fray, and Lin Xiuyuan has become the strongest candidate to take the top spot... Facing the two senior disciples again, he is already feeling somewhat powerless, so he plans to focus on cultivation.
Therefore, there's no need to waste energy on the duty of guarding the town. By focusing on cultivation, one can quickly catch up with the older disciples and test their skills again in the Great Yue Sword Tournament!
"This must be Junior Brother Lin, right?"
"I've heard so much about you."
"Recently, we have heard many rumors about you, which have truly shocked us."
"To be honest, if it weren't for your heroic efforts in turning the tide in the secret realm, we might have ended up losing resources."
"I have to say, we all owe you a favor."
Upon seeing Lin Xiuyuan arrive, everyone's eyes turned to him, focusing on him with curiosity.
They all smiled and spoke, appearing friendly.
After all, there's no real competition among them; the top spot is just a competition within the same lineage. Fellow disciples from the same lineage are the most advantageous competitors.
For a prodigy like Lin Xiuyuan, a genius who had reached the level of being invincible in the same realm during the Foundation Establishment stage, it was natural to prioritize befriending him when there were no conflicts of interest.
Wang Qiuhai didn't say anything particularly confrontational, after all, it was in front of a large audience.
Moreover, what Senior Brother Ziyun said in the last sentence was correct.
They are all stakeholders in the output of Hengyang Secret Realm.
Without Lin Xiuyuan's intervention, their future resources would likely have been affected to some extent.
The resources involved in such a secret realm are all of mid-to-high level, enough to influence an entire generation for five hundred years.
However, Wang Qiuhai naturally wouldn't give him a friendly look; his eyes flashed with coldness, revealing a strong sense of provocation.
Lin Xiuyuan didn't mind at all. After exchanging greetings, he joined the crowd and waited silently.
Not long after.
A majestic voice rang out from inside the main hall.
"Is everyone here? Then come in!"
