"Fine, fine. But don't regret it later!"
No Light In The Night sneered. "You're lucky today. Those three geniuses from the dark ones are all out training. Otherwise, how many times could Nocturnal Formless have saved you?"
With that, he sped up his pace and left.
Sometimes, he felt that he was despicable.
The more others rejected him, the more he wanted to adopt him.
Moreover, Ling Xiao's performance had indeed made him like him more and more.
Although he had rejected No Light In The Night, Ling Xiao still felt some pressure.
An Feitian was already difficult to deal with, let alone the other three.
He also believed that there were other geniuses like them in the eight great families.
Especially the Sand, Snake, and Sword Clans, who were on equal footing with the dark ones.
He didn't need to think to know that they were no weaker than the dark ones.
"Boss, you don't need to care too much about what that old man says. Once you enter the dark ones, even if you're an outsider, you'll still find some good opportunities.
Of course, they're also a test. Once you pass them, you'll gain great benefits just like we did on the Eight Immortals Mountain. "
Lin Yang was a member of the Lin family.
The Lin family had many disciples on the Eight Immortals Mountain. He knew a lot of things that Ling Xiao didn't.
"I understand."
Ling Xiao nodded. "Let's work hard together."
"Yes, let's work hard together!"
Lin Yang and Qingluan knew that they weren't as talented as Ling Xiao, but they didn't want to fall behind. They just wanted to keep up with Ling Xiao's footsteps.
"Hmm?"
At this moment, Ling Xiao suddenly stopped in his tracks.
This was because an extremely strange aura had suddenly appeared in front of him, causing the Twelve Divine Beasts' God Positions in his body to become slightly agitated.
The Martial Spirit of the Son of God emitted a strange power that seemed to resonate with the aura in front of him.
"Is that the dark ones' Heaven Altar?"
Ling Xiao looked ahead.
The Heaven Sacrificial Altar was indeed worthy of being called the Heaven Sacrificial Altar. It stood there like a huge pagoda that pierced through the sky.
The Heaven Sacrificial Altar was dozens of levels high, and its surroundings were made of gold and special metals.
It looked very luxurious.
However, this was not the main point.
The key point was that the power that resonated with the Twelve Divine Beasts' Divine Positions came from the Heaven Sacrificial Altar.
What was it?
Although Ling Xiao didn't know what it was, he believed that it was definitely something good. Most likely, it was a treasure from the Black Tortoise Mainland.
He stepped into the Heaven Worshipping Altar.
That power became clearer and more active.
Ling Xiao even felt that he was on the verge of a breakthrough because of this power.
Although he had just broken through to the First Revolution Yin Yang Realm's second level, Hell Peak.
However, after exchanging blows with several experts during this period of time, the potential within his body had been constantly stimulated.
The power that had once been hidden in his body was also stimulated.
He didn't seem to be deliberately cultivating, but in reality, his cultivation was constantly improving.
This made Ling Xiao very pleased.
He decided that he had to find a way to get his hands on the Heaven Sacrificial Altar's treasure.
He was certain that it was the dark race's supreme treasure, the Shadow Black Gourd.
Although the name didn't sound like much, the Shadow Black Gourd was a divine-grade spirit artifact. It would be of great help to Ling Xiao.
It might even be able to increase his cultivation significantly.
However, he didn't dare covet it.
He had to wait for an opportunity!
He calmed himself down as much as possible. Under the dark race's leadership, they worshipped their ancestors at the Heaven Sacrificial Altar.
With that, the ceremony was over.
Ling Xiao's thoughts were simple.
If the dark race treated him with sincerity, he would treat them with sincerity and make them the strongest clan on Eight Immortal Mountain.
However, if they didn't treat him well, he wouldn't just stand by and do nothing.
Although he could be cunning at times, he was a simple and straightforward person.
He would treat anyone who treated him well.
He would return the favor a hundred times, a thousand times over!
After half an hour, the ceremony finally came to an end.
Nightwalker looked at the ten dark race experts and said, "You are all qualified to adopt children.
These three have already worshipped their ancestors and become members of the dark race.
However, if they wish to join us, they will need your approval.
Let's begin. Whoever you take a fancy to will be accepted as an adopted son or daughter. That person will be accepted into the inner race. "
Nightwalker's words were met with a deathly stillness.
In truth, many of them had taken a fancy to Ling Xiao, but Ling Xiao had offended Elder Darkflower and injured Young Patriarch An Feitian.
Who wouldn't be wise enough to openly make an enemy out of the patriarch and elder?
No Light In The Night wanted to adopt Ling Xiao, but he knew that now wasn't the time. He'd only be rejected if he brought it up.
So he didn't say anything.
"Hmph. I don't think you need to waste your time, Big Brother. Those three pieces of trash should be thanking the heavens if they can become outer members of the dark race. Inner members?
Impossible! "
Elder Darkflower snorted coldly.
"Forget it. Since no one has taken a fancy to any of you, you'll all be outer members of the dark race from now on.
Outer members will have to do some chores. I hope you remember that. "
Nightwalker's eyes flashed with a cold sneer as he spoke.
How dare they offend him after joining the dark race? They really didn't know the immensity of heaven and earth.
Although he wouldn't go so far as to kill them, he could still give them a hard time.
Nightwalker was right when he said he was narrow-minded.
How could he just sit back and do nothing when they'd hurt his son?
"That's enough. Outer members like you don't have the right to stay at the altar. You may return to your residence now. Someone will assign you tasks and chores."
Nightwalker smiled. "But don't be discouraged. If you want to become an inner member without acknowledging an inner member as your father or mother, there's no need to be discouraged.
There's another way. "
"What is it?"
Ling Xiao couldn't help but ask.
It was better to become an inner member, but he wanted to do it on his own. He didn't want to rely on others.
"It's simple. All you need to do is gain the approval of the Umbra Gourd and learn a martial art or secret art from it."
Nightwalker smiled.
When he said this, many people around him laughed.
Ling Xiao could tell that those people's smiles were mocking.
No Light In The Night couldn't help but say, "Patriarch, why are you bullying three children? The gourd is the most precious treasure of the dark race. It's harder than ascending to heaven to get a chance to communicate with it.
All inner members can do it, but only one outer member gets the chance every year.
