A cultivator at the Ninth-Layer Perfection Realm, even in the entire Great Xia Dynasty, would be considered among the most elite fighters!
Even Emperor Xiao of Great Xia, Celestial Sect Leader Hua, Chairman Han of the Holy Dragon Association, and those renowned Princes from the Prince Mansions have only broken through to this realm in recent years, overcoming their bottlenecks!
Ninth-Layer Perfection.
Even without the Celestial Demon Bone.
Even without a Demon Pearl.
Even without battle armor.
Just relying on this nearly unmatched realm alone was enough to rank within the top ten of the entire Great Xia Dynasty, becoming an earth-shattering figure on the Great Xia Sumr List!
At this mont, Lin Xuankong told them that soon, they too would beco terrifying warriors at the forefront of the Great Xia Sumr List, reaching realms they had only ever dread of, realms they never even dared to imagine in their lifetis! How could they not be excited!
Faces flushed with excitent, Han Lu was the first to speak!
This forr disciple of Grand Chief Steward Ma Jiang squeezed his own neck and, with a powerful jerk and a sickening CRACK, actually crushed his own neck...
The other five, although equally excited, couldn’t help but shake their heads at this scene. Hu Shuo, however, couldn’t resist laughing out loud, saying, "That’s Han Lu’s personality for you... The guy is way too impatient! General Lin, I have an excellent suggestion—let’s make Han Lu the last to be reborn!"
Lin Xuankong nodded decisively. "I had initially planned to let you draw lots to choose the appearance of your bodies! After all, even though they’re all bodies of Ninth-Layer Perfection experts, so are bound to be more attractive, and so less so. This works out quite well. You five now have one less competitor. This ans Han Lu will end up with the least handso one!"
Hu Shuo and the other four paused for a mont, then burst into laughter.
"Hahaha, you can’t rush eating hot tofu!" Li Er found it particularly amusing as he looked at Han Lu, who lay limp on the ground with his neck twisted.
Yin Talisman Sect, Great Marsh Hall, eting room.
Grand Chief Steward Ma Jiang and Chief Steward Jiang Yuran looked solemnly at Lin Xuankong before them.
More than half a year had passed since the battle at the Sealing Demon Mountain Range, an event that shook the upper echelons of the Great Xia Dynasty. However, it wasn’t widely known. At the very least, the Yin Talisman Sect, which didn’t even have a single Seventh-Layer cultivator, was unaware of the details and its proceedings.
Recently, the Yin Talisman Sect’s most significant observation was the incredibly high bounty offered by the Great Xia Dynasty for Demon Pearls. This bounty even exceeded twice the value of the Demon Pearl itself!
Consequently, Sect Leader Jiang Haiyan of the Yin Talisman Sect had taken nearly all of the sect’s elite to the outskirts of Boundaryless Mountain. Only Grand Chief Steward Ma Jiang and Chief Steward Jiang Yuran, the two he trusted most, remained in the hall.
At this mont, seeing the long-absent Lin Xuankong suddenly arrive, Ma Jiang and Jiang Yuran naturally greeted him with great solemnity and respect, welcoming him into the eting hall.
After all, Lin Xuankong was not only nominally the Supre Elder of the Yin Talisman Sect but also the Saint-Protector General. This position was second only to the Princes, and even the Sect Leader of the Yin Talisman Sect would have to show him deference.
Lin Xuankong sat at the head of the table, looking at their respectful expressions, and couldn’t help but slightly shake his head.
These two had once been benefactors on his path of cultivation.
One was his imdiate superior. When almost everyone else refused to acknowledge him, this superior had taken out the most precious treasures to support him, even offending strong fellow sect mbers for his sake.
The other was Jiang Yuran. When he first joined the sect, she hadn’t obstructed him due to his age. Instead, she directly appointed him as a Chief Steward, which allowed him access to many dicinal herbs. Later, she was instruntal in elevating him to the coveted position of Silver Jade Steward.
Now that he was about to leave the Great Xia Dynasty, Great Marsh Prefecture, and the Yin Talisman Sect, he naturally wanted to help the sect as much as possible. He hoped to prevent it from suffering a lack of successors and declining again after his departure.
After all, this wasn’t just a place where people had recognized him during his despondent tis. It was also the first sect he joined after stepping onto the Martial Dao, so it held so sentintal value for him.
"Boss, I still feel indebted for the Wandering Dragon Exorcism Hand you imparted to back then. I haven’t been able to repay you yet!" Lin Xuankong said. "I’m going to leave Great Marsh Prefecture for a while soon, so please accept this weapon as a gift!"
After Lin Xuankong finished speaking, he took out battle armor from the Ghost Frog Pouch.
When Ma Jiang and Jiang Yuran looked up and saw the appearance of the Profound Gold Rod, both of them imdiately stood up, their expressions changing dramatically.
Ma Jiang stared at the brilliant Ruyi Xuanjin Armor, his expression continuously shifting before he suddenly slapped his head. I’ve been so foolish! After you showcased your strength at the Princess’s birthday banquet back then, I should have realized your connection to the Conical Hat Guest! After all, in this small Great Marsh Prefecture, how could it be such a coincidence to have a Nine-Seal Genius, an Artifact Refining Genius, and the Conical Hat Guest—who rights wrongs and kills bandits with extraordinary skill—all appear at the sa ti!
Grand Steward Jiang Yuran stared at the Ruyi Golden Rod with a look of utter shock.
After a long mont, she finally sighed and said, "It’s true that so people are destined for greatness from birth... Even if you’re over sixty, given a single chance, you can achieve feats that leave the world in awe in the blink of an eye! Oh, Conical Hat Guest, Conical Hat Guest, you truly kept Grand Chief Steward Ma Jiang and in the dark for so long!"
As she spoke, the charming Daoist nun’s eyes flickered. Her heart was already in turmoil! Back then, I repeatedly wanted to see the Conical Hat Guest with my own eyes, to see what he looked like, but the Conical Hat Guest was right beside ! I constantly wanted to find that Nine-Seal Genius and have Lin Xuankong investigate, but Lin Xuankong *was* the Nine-Seal Genius! This guy! He truly makes one both annoyed and delighted!
