Not long after that, An Lin followed Elder Zhu to the Vermilion Bird Sect's Oath Tree and officially became an in-name disciple of the Vermilion Bird Sect.
An Lin chose to become an in-name disciple because he had a very high degree of freedom. No one would take care of him, and he didn't have to bear any responsibilities.
To put it even more bluntly, an in-name disciple of the sect was a child that no master was willing to teach.
Under normal circumstances, an in-name disciple didn't even have the right to enter the main sect. They could only work for some external branches of the sect and leave with a basic body refinement mantra to play with.
But no matter what, An Lin was now a member of the Vermilion Bird Sect, and he was the number one in-name disciple of the Vermilion Bird Sect!
Apparently, the number two in-name disciple of the Vermilion Bird Sect had already reached the Ninth Stage Dao Body and was about to become an official disciple of the sect!
Boom!
A flame seal suddenly fell from the sky and attached itself onto An Lin's body.
He could feel that he was being protected by some kind of mysterious power. This was the power of the Holy Flame, which meant that he was now a member of the Vermilion Bird Sect and was being protected by the Holy Flame of the Vermilion Bird.
"Next, you have to go to the Vermilion Bird Trial Grounds and obtain the projection of the Vermilion Bird Flame Wing. Only then will you have the right to come into contact with the Holy Flame of the Vermilion Bird," Elder Zhu said slowly as he chewed on a bun.
An Lin bowed. "Thank you for your help, Elder Zhu. I will do my best!"
"An Lin, the Vermilion Bird Trial Grounds is an alternate dimension with many powerful mutant beasts and dangerous restricted areas. You have to prioritize your own safety and don't force yourself, "Xu Xiaolan cautioned.
"Go to the dao platform and wait for my successful return. I hope you'll be at the Half-Step Soul Formation Stage by the time I return. Good luck! "An Lin patted Xu Xiaolan's shoulder with a confident smile.
Xu Xiaolan nodded lightly and looked deeply into An Lin's eyes. "Alright, I'll be going now. Good luck to you too!"
Elder Zhu's eyes almost popped out of their sockets. His niece couldn't possibly be this gentle!
After Xu Xiaolan left, An Lin followed Elder Zhu to the entrance of the Vermillion Bird Realm.
If he wanted to go to the Vermilion Bird Trial Realm, he had to go through this spatial gate.
At this moment, there were already five sect disciples standing quietly outside the door, obviously waiting for something.
When the five disciples saw Elder Zhu, they all bowed respectfully.
Elder Zhu spoke with a solemn expression, "This Mr. An Lin is also going to participate in the Vermilion Bird Trial Grounds that is held once every five years. Make sure to take good care of him when you're in the alternate world, understand?!"
The five disciples were stunned when they heard this, and then they responded respectfully. They didn't say anything further, but their faces carried a wisp of shock that was difficult to conceal.
An Lin's heart jolted upon hearing this. The Vermilion Bird Trial Grounds that occurred once every five years? So the Vermilion Bird Trial Grounds wasn't a trial that could be entered at any time?
There were five sect disciples standing in front of him, and from their auras, they were all at the Soul Formation Stage. This further highlighted the extraordinariness of this trial. Furthermore, the number of people who participated in this trial that occurred once every five years was extremely small, so it was most likely going to be extremely difficult to obtain. Furthermore, when An Lin mentioned the Holy Flame, Xu Xiaolan had told him that she would return to the sect in a month, so she had most likely calculated the opening time of the Vermilion Bird Trial Grounds.
Xu Xiaolan hadn't told him about these things in advance, most likely because she was worried that he would take it to heart and refuse to go.
With this in mind, An Lin felt a heavy sense of camaraderie.
"This is a return trip token. If you find the projection of the Vermilion Bird Flame Wing or encounter any danger you can't resolve, use your vital energy to activate this token and return here safely. There's still an hour before the spatial gate opens, so rest well. "Elder Zhu handed a red token to An Lin.
An Lin accepted the red token and bowed to express his gratitude.
After that, Elder Zhu left, leaving behind An Lin and the five Vermilion Bird Sect disciples.
"Holy f * ck, An Lin, did you really marry into our sect? You're even allowed to participate in the Vermilion Bird Trial Grounds! "
An ordinary-looking man with crimson pupils quickly walked over and said with a surprised expression.
An Lin's lips twitched slightly. "Mr. Mo Hai, don't say things like that. Otherwise, this will become big news in your sect again tomorrow."
This man was none other than the number one disciple of the Vermilion Bird Sect, Mo Hai.
An Lin had a very deep impression of this man.
After all, Mo Hai was a freak who begged Xiao Chou to burn him with fire and then yelled that it felt good.
"What's there to be afraid of? It's only a matter of time anyway. By the way, where's Brother Monkey? Why don't I see him? "Mo Hai looked around with an expectant expression.
An Lin replied honestly, "Xiao Chou and Dabai are both resting in the guest courtyard. They're not members of the Vermilion Bird Sect, so they can't enter the Vermilion Bird Trial Grounds."
"Hmph, are you a member of the Vermilion Bird Sect? You're just an outsider who got in through connections, yet you're dreaming of condensing a holy flame in your sea of vital energy. A half-baked bastard like you won't even be able to touch the projection of the Vermilion Bird Flame Wing, much less the Holy Vermilion Bird Flame Wing! "A cold and disdainful voice suddenly sounded.
An Lin turned toward the source of the voice to find a handsome man looking at him with hostility on his face.
He was a little dazed. What was going on? Why was he being mocked?
I'm so nervous … Should I retaliate?
At this moment, Mo Hai spoke, "An Lin, don't pay any attention to that man. There's a hint of jealousy in his voice, and he's very petty! To tell you the truth, he's in love with Xu Xiaolan, but to his surprise, Xu Xiaolan completely ignores him and can't even be bothered to say anything to him. Now that he sees that Xu Xiaolan is on very good terms with you, he must've been dealt a heavy blow, so he's here to bite you. "
"Mo Hai, watch your language!" the man roared with rage.
"Brother Ji Yongfang, you're the one who should watch your language! Don't embarrass the Vermilion Bird Sect!" Mo Hai retorted.
An Lin had an innocent expression on his face. What the hell was going on?
Ji Yongfang liked Xu Xiaolan but was ignored by her, and now he was venting his anger on An Lin?
He hadn't even done anything, yet he was being mocked by a certain villain? He and Xu Xiaolan were just friends …
In the spirit of building a harmonious society, he turned to Ji Yongfang with a benevolent expression.
"F * ck off! A piece of trash like you dares to covet my dao partner? Why don't you take a piss and look at yourself in the mirror? You're a toad lusting after a swan!
"Do you know why Xu Xiaolan is on good terms with me, but ignores you?
"That's because … no one wants to talk to a pile of sh * t! She likes me, a divine jade that's filled with the beauty of heaven and earth! Not a pile of sh * t like you! "
An Lin's voice was forceful, and it reverberated through the air like a clap of thunder.
Mo Hai was dumbstruck, and his mouth gaped open.
Ji Yongfang was also rooted to the spot, and his head buzzed. He had no idea what was going on.
The other three sect disciples also stared blankly at An Lin, then at the dumbstruck Ji Yongfang. One of the male disciples couldn't help but burst into laughter.
"You … You've got guts!"
Ji Yongfang's voice trembled, and he felt as if he had a mouthful of blood in his chest.
No one had ever insulted him like this in his entire life.
"It does take a lot of guts to step on sh * t." An Lin nodded in agreement.
Everyone was stunned when they heard this.
"Pfft, hahaha …" Mo Hai finally couldn't help but burst into laughter. He patted An Lin's shoulder to express his admiration, "You're amazing, Brother An Lin. When it comes to insulting people, I only admire you!"
The other two disciples came back to their senses, and they couldn't help but cover their mouths and laugh.
Ji Yongfang gritted his teeth in anger, but he didn't know what to say.
An Lin's mouth was like cannon fire, and he couldn't win against An Lin at all. If he wanted to make a move, he would definitely be punished by the sect … Ji Yongfang thought for a moment, and could only walk away with a sullen face.
He still couldn't figure it out. Didn't he just say a word of mockery? How did it turn out like this?
An Lin looked at Ji Yongfang's back with his hands behind his back, and a calm expression on his face. He sighed, "Sigh, people are really not what they used to be, and the morals of the world are degenerating day by day …"
