"Okay, Bian Ye and Xu Feng stay, and the rest of the disciples go down first." Elder Long waved his sleeves and said to everyone.

"Didn't they say they were going to check the homework..." a disciple muttered in a low voice.

However, seeing that Elder Long did not say anything, all the disciples had to leave the hall; "Xu Feng, what level of the Green Lotus Heart Sutra have you reached?" Elder Long asked impatiently after seeing everyone leave.

"Reporting to Master, I have already completed the fourth level. In a few days at most, I will be able to break through to the fifth level!" Xu Feng replied respectfully.

"Hiss~" Elder Long's eyes lit up, he took a breath, and couldn't help asking: "You have been in the sect for only a short year. The scene when I accepted you as a disciple is still vivid in my mind. How did your cultivation increase so fast?"

"Master, when I first came to the sect and passed the first secret realm, my Green Lotus Heart Sutra was already at the third level..." Xu Feng couldn't help but say.

Elder Long's expression froze, and he couldn't help but sigh: "People from the upper realms often look down on people from the lower realms, thinking they are contemptuous, but who knows that the potential of people from the lower realms is much higher than that of people from the upper realms!"

Almost all the cultivators recruited from the lower realms are secret realm apostles who possess the apostle system. With the assistance of the apostle system, the cultivation of the secret realm apostles is often several times that of the upper realm cultivators. It's a pity that due to the difficulty of the identity sublimation trial tasks, more than 90% of the secret realm apostles will stop here. Those upper realm cultivators who were once crushed by the lower realm apostles in their cultivation level and then promoted to king-level powerhouses often make some contemptuous remarks about the secret realm apostles from the lower realm. Over time, a trend of looking down on people from the lower realm has been formed.

However, among the thousands and tens of thousands of apostles from the lower realm, there will always be a few who can complete the trial of identity sublimation. These apostles who have completed the trial of identity sublimation are like the love of everyone, and they have plundered the luck of other secret realm apostles into themselves. Their cultivation advances by leaps and bounds, and some of them can even become emperor-level powerhouses. This also makes the top leaders of various sects have a preference for people from the lower realm. There is no need for many such apostles from the lower realm who have the qualifications to become emperors. As long as one or two people can be recruited, the entire sect can undergo earth-shaking changes in just a few decades. This is why the Baimai Immortal Sect goes to the lower realm to recruit disciples every year.

"Master, please take a closer look. Junior Brother Xu is about to break through to the King level!" Bian Ye on the side could not help but say.

"What, King level?" Elder Long shuddered. For Qinglian Sect disciples, if they could break through to King level when they were promoted from the fifth level to the sixth level of Qinglian Heart Sutra, they would have a chance to be promoted to Emperor level. Now Xu Feng was about to become a King level when he was promoted from the fourth level to the fifth level of Qinglian Heart Sutra. So he would be very likely to be promoted to Emperor level in the future! Although Elder Long had always said that Xu Feng had the qualifications of an Emperor, it was not easy to become an Emperor level in the upper realm. In the entire Baimai Xianzong, only the top-ranked Yuhuang Palace had an Emperor level Supreme Elder who had existed for three thousand years. The top cultivators in other sects were only Emperor level.

"Good, good, good!" Elder Long laughed loudly, pointed at Xu Feng and said, "In the next term, I, Long Zikun, will also let my disciples compete for the position of the Holy Son of the Qinglian Sect. At that time, Xu Feng, you will fight for the ranking of the Baimai Immortal Sect on behalf of the sect as the Holy Son of the Qinglian Sect!"

"Disciple obeys your command!" Xu Feng bowed.

"Wait aside first!" Elder Long smiled and nodded at Xu Feng, then began to ask Bian Ye about some sect matters; Xu Feng listened quietly on the side, and couldn't help but feel something in his heart. Since the leader of Qinglian Sect has not returned for a thousand years, the elders have shown signs of acting on their own, just like the Blood Soul Crystal mine that Elder Long had seized from the wild, which was supposed to belong to Qinglian Sect. All the harvest needed to be handed over to the sect before distribution. However, judging from Elder Long's expression, it seemed that he did not intend to hand over the mine to the sect, but wanted it to belong to him.

"This is a bit like the Wanfa Sect in the lower realm. The three thousand sects are independent of each other. Although they are all under the Wanfa Sect, each sect has great power. The entire sect is like an alliance..." Xu Feng said in his heart.

If the Qinglian Sect continues to develop in this way, it will definitely follow the old path of the Wanfa Sect. Every elder of the sect will become a founder of the sect. By then, although everyone will regard themselves as disciples of the Qinglian Sect, they will have split up internally, and the various sects will compete with each other! Xu Feng didn't know whether this was good or bad. He didn't know what the leader of the Qinglian Sect would think if he came back from his travels and saw the sect become what it is now.

About half an hour later, Elder Long asked about some sect affairs, explained some other things, and then let Bian Ye leave;

Elder Long raised his eyebrows, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he continued to press down with his finger. After a moment, Elder Long withdrew his hand, a look of surprise appeared in his eyes. After pondering for a moment, he seemed to have thought of something and said suddenly: "The water rises and the embankment rises. When the embankment stops rising, once the water breaks through the embankment, it will be unstoppable..."

"Xu Feng, you have successfully completed the identity sublimation trial, right?" Elder Long asked with a smile.

"Reporting to Master, I have completed the status sublimation trial and am now at the peak of the Loose Immortal realm..." Xu Feng said respectfully: "This time I have a breakthrough in the Green Lotus Heart Sutra, and I am very confident that I can break through to the King level!"

Xu Feng was full of confidence. Being able to become a king-level powerhouse at this age had already surpassed all the disciples of Qinglian Sect at the same time. If he wanted to make a comparison, he could only compare himself with the predecessors who had left their names in the history of Qinglian Sect.

"Okay!" Elder Long took a deep breath, pondered for a moment, and asked, "Is there anything I can help you with?"

Elder Long naturally did not hesitate to train a disciple with potential like Xu Feng, and wanted Xu Feng to compete for the position of the Holy Son of the Qinglian Sect, so naturally the stronger his cultivation was, the better! "Master, this time when I explored the secret realm of the ginseng fruit tree, I obtained thirty small Netherworld ginseng fruits..." After saying that, Xu Feng took out a small Netherworld ginseng fruit, handed it to Elder Long, and continued, "I can't use this small ginseng fruit, I can only sell it to cultivators who cultivate the power of the Netherworld, but I lack a channel to sell it, and I'm afraid I'll be bullied if I sell it rashly..."

Elder Long imitated Xu Feng's use of energy, and after examining the Netherworld Small Ginseng Fruit, he nodded and said, "It's a small matter, just leave it to me. I will definitely sell it to you at a good price!"

"Anything else?" Elder Long continued to ask; "Disciple also obtained thirty small ginseng fruits, hoping to refine the Green Lotus Pill!" Xu Feng said with a smile.

The Green Lotus Pill can assist in the practice of the Green Lotus Heart Sutra, and its effect is similar to the devouring ability of Xu Feng's lotus platform. If Xu Feng asks someone to refine it himself, thirty small ginseng fruits can produce ten Green Lotus Pills, which means he has met a good person. If Elder Long comes forward, the number of Green Lotus Pills he can obtain will definitely be much more than if he asks others for help himself.

"It's a small matter!" Elder Long nodded and continued to ask: "Anything else?"

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

Xu Feng wanted to ask how to use the Dinghai Divine Pearl to merge the small world, but after hesitating for a moment, he finally shook his head and said, "Master, just these two things!"

Elder Long nodded, pondered for a long time, and suddenly asked: "Do you have a magic weapon to protect the way?"

Xu Feng was stunned. It was naturally impossible for him to take out the thirty-six Dinghai Divine Pearls at this time. After hesitating for a moment, he took out the white bone stick and the Hunyuan gold brick he had just obtained and placed them in front of Elder Long.
