"Ugh—" Long Lin suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.
He took a deep breath, immediately adjusted his breathing, and transformed the spiritual energy within his body to repair the internal injuries caused by the recent spiritual energy disturbance.
"Long Lin, how are you?"
When he opened his eyes again, he saw Mo Lan's worried expression.
Why did you suddenly vomit blood?
"It's alright, don't worry." Long Lin wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.
He was a descendant of the Golden Dragon, and even the blood he spat out had a hint of golden light. "The spiritual energy suddenly went into chaos just now, which is why I was injured, but I'm fine now."
"Are you thinking about the Ning siblings again?"
Mo Lan lowered her eyes and asked with a hint of disappointment.
She was actually happy that Long Lin cared so much about the Ning family, as it showed that Long Lin was a man of affection and loyalty.
However, the Ning family didn't seem to like her much, especially Ning Xiaocao, who regarded her as a rival in love.
"Long Lin, why don't we go look for them again?"
If they cannot be found, I fear these two people will become Long Lin's inner demons.
This is extremely detrimental to Long Lin's cultivation.
"We definitely need to look for them."
Long Lin felt very depressed.
The three of them used to get along very well, so why did things change so suddenly?
They even left without a trace, which was incredibly frustrating.
For ten years, there has been no news from either of them. They even said they would contact him, but it was all a lie.
Even now, all he knows is that the two of them have the same master.
They clearly have his address—
"The sect competition is about to begin."
The sect competition is held once every ten years, and representatives from various sects will participate. Of course, only disciples below the Nascent Soul stage can participate; those who have broken through to the Nascent Soul stage cannot participate.
Long Lin is in the late stage of the Golden Core realm, so he can still participate.
However, judging by his cultivation speed, he will probably only be able to participate this time.
Since most sects in the cultivation world will participate, this is a chance to make a name for oneself.
Mo Lan and Long Lin did not share the same master. Mo Lan was a disciple of Qinglian Zhenren, who was in the late Nascent Soul stage.
Long Lin became a disciple of Master Liu'an and reached the early stage of the Integration Realm.
Such cultivation level is rare, even in the entire cultivation world, there are no more than five like it, making him a patriarch of the Hanxu Sect.
Therefore, they each have one spot.
Mo Lan follows the path of alchemy.
As for Long Lin, he is a demon cultivator, but he follows the path of the sword.
The two of them are not in the same group.
Do you think those two will come?
Long Lin suddenly spoke up to ask a question.
The sect competition is held once every ten years.
The venue for the annual competition is selected through a rigorous process.
The previous session was held at Tianxiamen.
The previous session was held at Nagamatsu Gate.
Both Tianxiamen and Changsongmen are major sects in the cultivation world.
There are many exceptionally talented individuals among them.
They are far inferior to the Hanxu sect.
However, this year, their Hanxu Sect has also produced several geniuses.
One is Long Lin, and the other is Huang Heng and Mo Lan.
Long Lin, in particular, has cultivated at an unprecedented speed.
However, their Hanxu Sect has a total of six True Persons, so there are naturally six slots available. The remaining three are also outstanding, but not as good as these three.
"How could that be?"
Mo Lan shook her head.
They are just ordinary people. Even if they start cultivating, how fast can their cultivation speed be?
To be able to reach the Foundation Establishment stage in ten years is already a testament to exceptional talent.
Mo Lan possesses a single Heavenly Spiritual Root, making her an exceptional talent, one in ten thousand. Coupled with her access to this small secret realm, her cultivation progressed so rapidly. As for Long Lin, he is not human, so there's no need to elaborate.
Only one person can register under this real name.
Unless their master only has him as a disciple.
"Who knows?" Long Lin stood up. "Brother Hong has always been a very capable person."
Being powerful among humans doesn't necessarily mean being powerful in the cultivation world.
Mo Lan remained noncommittal.
However, she didn't want to argue with Long Lin.
After all, it was Ning Hong who raised Long Lin—
The day of the competition arrived quickly.
The disciples of Hanxu Sect all had beaming smiles on their faces.
Regardless of Hanxu Sect's ranking in this competition, they will surely become famous throughout the world.
Of course, with Senior Brother Long Lin there, they're sure to win.
Ning Hong and Ning Xiaocao walked slowly up the steps.
Many people chose to travel by sword, but the two of them walked slowly.
One reason is that since they've come all this way to Hanxu Sect, they want to enjoy the scenery there.
Secondly, it was naturally because they didn't have swords—
"Brother, Master is really unreliable."
Ning Xiaocao silently complained.
At the very least, they should be given a sword.
When they joined Hengshan Sect, Ning Hong was already at the Foundation Establishment stage, and even Ning Xiaocao was already at the sixth level of the Qi Refining stage.
Although the two of them did not have swords, they were not incapable of using them.
Therefore, the long beard bypassed this point entirely.
They forgot to make a sword for the brother and sister.
Little Grass has always been practicing with a wooden stick.
In this situation, if the two of them were to actually fly around with sticks, they would probably be laughed at even more.
Ning Hong smiled but didn't say anything.
He knew perfectly well that his master was unreliable; if he were, he wouldn't have gone to seek out Fairy Bihuan before the competition.
