Not long after.
The two then arrived at a scenic spot halfway up the mountain.
Looking at the tombstone in front of me.
A hint of sadness appeared on Wang Qiuhe's face.
A hint of nostalgia appeared on Lin Xiuyuan's face as well.
The two did not perform any rituals like ordinary people; they simply stood quietly.
After a while.
Lin Xiuyuan's expression returned to normal. He turned to look at Wang Qiuhe and said:
"Senior sister, this parting is sixty years away. I hope you take good care of yourself."
"Yes, Junior Brother, you should also take care. The situation in that enclave is complicated. If things are not going to work, don't force it. You should focus more on your own cultivation. After the period of guarding the enclave is over, the Great Yue Sword Tournament will not be long away."
Wang Qiuhe's voice was somewhat low, and a smile squeezed out from her exquisite face, which looked somewhat poignant and stirred a few emotions in people's hearts.
Lin Xiuyuan nodded, then hesitated for a moment before saying, "Why don't you go and guard the position, Senior Sister? With your abilities, your chances of winning the chief position are quite good."
"Hehe, do you think I don't know how high the chances are?"
"I'm fairly confident I can compete with Wang Qiuhai, but if you join the team, my chances are less than 20%!"
"Or are you going to hand over the top position to me?"
Wang Qiuhe smiled, sighed, as if consoling herself, and also as if comforting Lin Xiuyuan, and said:
"I am now only a hair's breadth away from the mid-stage realm. I might as well focus on cultivating in the sect. While the chief disciple competition is still ongoing and I am still a core disciple, I can enjoy certain resource allocations. I must seize this time to cultivate. If I reach the Golden Core stage after the Great Yue Sword Tournament, that would be the biggest turning point for my situation!"
Originally, Wang Qiuhe was quite confident in her chances of winning the top spot.
Although she had two senior brothers competing for the spiritual vein, one of them was Wang Qiuhai, who was one step ahead of her.
But if they give it their all, their chances of winning the top spot are still quite good.
However, Lin Xiuyuan suddenly appeared.
His dazzling performance in the spiritual veins broke records one after another and created legendary deeds.
The terrifying talent that he displayed.
That's truly amazing.
Although Lin Xiuyuan has only explored some parts of the Trial Tower recently, he has not yet passed the fifth level.
However, the two had previously discussed matters at length and were well aware of Lin Xiuyuan's terrifying talent. This was unlike Wang Qiuhai, who, after a simple assessment, no longer took him seriously!
In addition, there was the great contribution made in the secret realm.
As long as we don't come in last place in the Great Yue Sword Competition, no matter what unexpected situation arises!
The top spot this year will most likely go to Lin Xiuyuan.
Having understood this, Wang Qiuhe naturally wouldn't waste her energy and time on it.
As she said, it would be better to use this time and energy on cultivation. While she was still a core disciple, even though the period of preferential treatment in terms of resources had passed, she still received some preferential treatment at this level.
If she reaches the threshold of the Golden Core stage after the competition for the top spot, then for her, it's almost the same as winning the top spot!
Lin Xiuyuan nodded silently upon hearing this.
Should we simply hand over the top spot?
Lin Xiuyuan didn't think he could do that; after all, it was a contest of the Great Dao!
After a long pause, Lin Xiuyuan said, "Although one may walk the path of the Great Dao alone, it does not prevent Daoist partners from joining hands and climbing to the summit!"
"Yes, that makes sense."
Wang Qiuhe smiled, her laughter light and melodious. She glanced at Lin Xiuyuan, a gentle and bright smile blooming on her face.
...
…………
Several days later.
After leaving the Hall of Affairs, Lin Xiuyuan immediately transformed into a streak of light and headed straight for the Guardian Pavilion.
The Dharma Protector Pavilion has its own sacred mountain, located at the heart of the entire Cloud Soaring Sect, where a superior spiritual vein lies.
Most of the elite disciples of each generation will be transferred to the Dharma Protectorate.
Internally, we must protect and maintain the sect's laws and order!
Externally, they safeguard the interests and security of the sect!
It is a sword belonging to the Cloud Soaring Sect.
During the period of guarding the enclave, the sect will dispatch a team of guardians, led by a guardian deacon, to protect and obey the core disciples.
More than half a day later.
A flying boat slowly left the Cloud Soaring Sect and sped towards the edge of the Cloud Dream Mountain Range.
On the flying boat, several disciples of the Purple Mansion Guardian sat cross-legged, vigilantly looking around.
The rest of the people rested and recuperated in a secluded room.
Lin Xiuyuan was also in the secret room, looking at the jade slip in his hand with a focused expression.
This is the specific information about Fengxia Mountain.
It contains a lot of information and basically explains the situation in the enclave he needs to guard.
I watched it for a full quarter of an hour.
Lin Xiuyuan already had a general understanding.
Fengxia Mountain, situated on the edge of the Great Yue Kingdom, unfortunately lies at the intersection of the territories of the three major powers in the Southern Continent.
Although this place lacks a strong concentration of spiritual energy, it contains abundant mineral resources, spiritual fields, and numerous small secret realms, attracting the attention and competition of various forces.
Due to the lack of high-quality spiritual veins and its remote geographical location, Fengxia Mountain has not become a place for any major power to establish itself.
But precisely because of this, it has become an arena for various forces to compete, with local small families and minor powers attaching themselves to the stronger ones to seek protection and benefits.
Over the long years of struggle, the interests in this area have long been settled.
However, at this moment, it has already been affected by the war between the righteous and the demonic forces in the Southern Continent.
The war between the righteous and the demonic forces is at a stalemate. Large and top-tier sects are not to be underestimated, as they possess profound foundations.
For the secondary power families on both sides, this would be somewhat unbearable.
