Gao Yan was already a high-level array master; given enough materials, he could also set up the Heart-Questioning Array.
Therefore, he was also very familiar with the mysteries of this formation.
As soon as Gao Yan stepped into the formation, he felt a power of law enveloping him.
This force of law is very active, constantly amplifying his desires and tempting him in various ways.
Once the mind is not firm.
They will be dominated by their desires and thus become deeply entrenched in them, unable to extricate themselves.
Knowing this, Gao Yan was naturally unmoved. He simply held fast to his inner convictions, closed his eyes, sat cross-legged in place, and waited for time to pass.
After an unknown amount of time, that law faded, and the Questioning Heart Array also disappeared.
"Sect Master, I wonder if my disciple has passed the test?" Xiao Lingyue asked nervously.
"Although Junior Nephew Gao is young, his Dao heart is more steadfast than I imagined. He is a promising talent and could become a Holy Son!" Shangguan Shang nodded with a light smile.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Lingyue was overjoyed and called Gao Yan to thank Shangguan Shang together!
"Nephew Gao, although we are not in a master-disciple relationship, since I have already acknowledged your status as a Holy Son, I will bestow upon you a spiritual treasure!"
"Thank you for the treasure, Sect Master!"
Gao Yan quickly expressed his gratitude.
With a casual wave of his hand, Shangguan Shang presented Gao Yan with a low-grade spiritual treasure longsword.
"You may return now. I will announce to the entire sect that my junior nephew has been ranked as the eighth holy son of my Nine Saints Sect!"
The master and disciple thanked him again and then left the Sacred Heart Hall!
Half a day later.
Shangguan Shang ordered his men to spread the news throughout the Nine Saints Sect, and the news that Gao Yan had become the eighth Holy Son also spread.
Inner door.
Yang Fenglai had just returned from a mission when he heard the news that Gao Yan had become a Holy Son.
He was stunned for a moment, then a look of joy appeared on his face: "I never expected that Senior Brother Gao would actually become a Holy Son!"
At the same time, he also felt a bit emotional.
Back then, Gao Yan's cultivation level was not as high as his, but in just a few years, his cultivation level and status rose rapidly like a flying sword.
Before long, he had reached the point where even his back was no longer visible.
However, he felt no jealousy whatsoever. Instead, he was filled with gratitude towards Gao Yan. If it weren't for the Foundation Establishment Pill that Gao Yan left him, he wouldn't have been able to establish his foundation so smoothly and become an inner disciple!
Sun Guangcheng, who was on duty at the outer gate, also heard the news that Gao Yan had become a holy son.
He was equally moved. Gao Yan entered the inner sect later than him, but the other party became a true disciple before him. Unexpectedly, only a few years later, Gao Yan's status rose even higher and he became a holy son.
The scene of him bringing Gao Yan into the inner sect flashed through his mind, and a surge of ambition welled up in his heart: Although I am not as good as Senior Brother Gao, I will still work hard and strive to become a true disciple within thirty years!
On a sacred mountain peak.
Xiahou Meng also learned of Gao Yan's ascension to the throne and muttered to himself, "I never expected this guy to be on equal footing with me so quickly!"
She had initially intended to recruit the other party to serve her, but unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, the other party had acquired the same identity as her. To be honest, she felt quite conflicted.
Moreover, that guy possesses sword intent energy. If she cannot break through to the Nascent Soul stage as soon as possible, he will catch up with her in no time, and may even surpass her!
Once the other party surpasses her and has the support of the four major factions, they may become one of her rivals in ascending to the position of vice sect leader!
"bother!"
Xiahou Meng couldn't help but shout.
Similarly, Nangong Yao also learned that Gao Yan had become a Holy Son.
Now that the four families have joined forces to fight against the Xiahou family, Gao Yan, after becoming the Holy Son, can be considered her ally.
"Qingluo, fetch a gift and deliver it to Holy Son Gaoyan!"
"Yes, Your Highness!"
At this moment, Gao Yan is choosing Lingfeng.
Each holy son and daughter is entitled to choose a sacred peak as their cultivation abode.
After careful selection.
Gao Yan chose a sacred peak that was adjacent to both Nangong Yao and Xiahou Meng.
After making the choice, a senior disciple personally guided him to the mountain peak.
"Your Highness, this sacred peak will belong to you from now on. This is the token for the mountain-protecting formation. A palace has already been built on the summit. If you are not satisfied, the True Inheritance Mansion can arrange for people to demolish it and rebuild it according to your wishes!"
As they spoke, the other party handed a jade pendant to Gao Yan.
"Thank you, Elder Ming. There's no need to rebuild the palace. I think it's fine as it is!"
Gao Yan accepted the token and expressed his gratitude to the elder who had brought him there.
"By the way, according to the rules, you can choose one of your true disciples to help you manage worldly affairs, of course, the other person must be willing. At the same time, you can also recruit 12 followers!"
"Elder Ming, can these attendants only be recruited from my Nine Saints Sect?" Gao Yan asked.
"Of course not!"
Elder Ming smiled and said, "You can recruit these followers from the inner sect or from outside. These followers can also enjoy the same treatment as true disciples. If Your Highness needs to recruit followers from the inner sect, I can provide you with a list of outstanding inner sect disciples!"
"Then I'll have to trouble Elder Sun!"
Gao Yan did not refuse.
Elder Ming then handed Gao Yan a jade slip containing the identity information of 120 outstanding inner disciples.
These inner disciples are not very old, and their cultivation levels have all reached the eighth level of Foundation Establishment or above.
Thoughtfully, their photos are also included in the jade slip.
It must be said that Elder Ming is a remarkable person, because more than 90% of the inner disciples he provided were female cultivators, and they were all of superior appearance and temperament.
