Hearing the other party say this, Lin Xiuyuan had already guessed it in his heart. His expression did not change, and he simply said, "Then it seems that Senior Brother is not willing to let this go?"
"There's nothing we can do about it. According to the rules of the main branch, if a dispute arises, we'll probably have to take it to the arena. Junior brother, you're not afraid, are you? This is a rule that has been in place for our main branch for a long time."
He spread his hands, a gesture that conveyed both helplessness and provocation.
Sure enough, the true intentions were revealed at the last minute!
The competition at the main peak is fierce, which is intentional on the part of the sect. This is to hone one's skills. Otherwise, even if one has talent and high cultivation level, if one tries to find opportunities in the cultivation world and gets involved in all the scheming and deceit, one will probably be tricked to death in no time.
The main focus is on survival of the fittest, constantly cultivating outstanding talents who can become pillars of society!
Therefore, unlike the promising young disciples of the inner and outer sects who enjoy a comfortable environment and cannot arbitrarily resort to violence or bullying, they are not allowed to do so.
However, in the main peaks that are advocated or even encouraged, if disputes arise, they can be resolved privately at any time, provided that relative fairness is guaranteed.
As long as both sides are at the same level, they can challenge each other to a duel, the bottom line being that no one should die.
The senior brother in front of me clearly had this in mind.
While they might not be able to kill someone, there are other ways to cripple them...
As for the reason, Lin Xiuyuan had some guesses in his mind.
However, Lin Xiuyuan need not be wary for the time being. Just like the ten-year protection period, he is not bound by this rule, after all, he is a newly promoted disciple.
Therefore, Lin Xiuyuan said without any politeness: "It seems that this senior brother has misremembered something. As a newly promoted disciple, I can refuse your challenge and come back in ten years!"
"Tell your master that now that I've entered the main peak, I won't be able to leave so easily. I'll take whatever comes my way."
After saying that, Lin Xiuyuan gave the other person a deep look, then turned and left.
"you……"
One particular word ignited the young cultivator's anger, but seeing Lin Xiu disappear into the distance, he had no choice but to suppress his rage and coldly snorted, "What's so arrogant about that? Who on the main peak isn't a prodigy? Do you think you're the only one?"
"Ha, so what if they're geniuses? There are countless geniuses on the main peak. Without a background, everything is fake. And you still dare to mock them... You won't even know it when you're about to die!"
"Just you wait. You've messed with the young master of the Han family. Who knows when you'll be crippled, or maybe I'll be the one crippling you myself!!!"
...
…………
Meanwhile, Lin Xiuyuan had already returned to his original cave dwelling and started moving. Actually, there wasn't much to it; it was mainly the nurturing environment for the Yin Spirit White Bird and the Blue Illusion Butterfly. In less than an hour, he had moved to the new cave dwelling.
After settling the spirit beasts, Lin Xiuyuan observed the area and found that the spiritual energy there was incredibly rich, which invisibly accelerated their cultivation progress.
Huo Yun, on the other hand, didn't change much. Although the cultivation environment was better and had some benefits, her cultivation progress was already slow, and compared to her previous cave, it already met the fire python's needs for spiritual energy. Therefore, even though she moved to a place with a richer spiritual energy, her improvement was not significant.
At this rate of progress, it's estimated that by the time he breaks through to the late Foundation Establishment stage, Huo Yun might not even be able to reach the bottleneck of the mid-Foundation Establishment stage.
The reason I've reached the mid-to-high level now is because I invested a lot of resources in the past.
It is clear that Huo Yun needs a considerable amount of time and resources to become a high-level demon beast!
Currently, his earnings from making talismans are barely enough to support himself.
He broke through to the mid-Foundation Establishment stage, which required more than double the resources. Fortunately, the Xuanjia Spirit Talisman also reached full purple light a few years after his breakthrough, otherwise he would have been unable to make ends meet.
Although the Xuanjia Spirit Talisman is inferior to other defensive talismans of the same rank in terms of protective power, it was precisely for this reason that nearly 150 Xuanjia Spirit Talismans were used on the arena to barely weaken the power of the Heavenly Thunder Pearl. Other talismans would not have required so many.
Despite this flaw, its advantages outweigh its disadvantages. It has the special effect of automatically protecting its owner, making it one of the top-tier secret talismans. In critical moments, it can save one's life. In the treacherous world of cultivation, having this means can give people peace of mind.
Therefore, the price is several times higher, and even in the Great Yue Kingdom where there are many spiritual masters, it can sell for nearly four thousand.
It has basically become the main source of income now.
After settling the spirit beasts, Lin Xiuyuan did not stop his busy pace. Instead, he went to the main peak and bought a large number of items, mainly spirit rice and spirit medicine!
