As the raindrops landed on his body, they gave off a mysterious aura. Lin Fan chuckled out.
"HAHA! Indeed, you're still the same old you. To think that you would improve to such an extent in just three years. Even Your Sect can't believe it. I guess I'll just have to see if you've been replaced by some evil being." Han Juntian stepped out of the void and grinned.
Standing beside the Grandmaster, Qing Yangzi heaved a sigh of relief.
The main reason was that this lad had improved way too much.
To be able to suppress a Golden Immortal in just three years … What sort of a concept was that? In fact, he was wondering if he had met with some mishap or had been replaced by some evil being that had infiltrated the sect.
Now that the Grandmaster had given it a try, he heaved a sigh of relief as well.
"Grandmaster." Lin Fan cupped his fists and greeted.
Han Juntian was in a pretty good mood, "Good, very good! What sort of rewards do you want?"
As for rewards and whatnot, Lin Fan wasn't all that concerned. What he needed the most right now was experience points.
"Grandmaster, this is what I should do as a disciple." Lin Fan replied politely.
Han Juntian nodded his head and swept his robes. A few pills and treasures floated in the void, "You've contributed to the sect. These are what you deserve."
Lin Fan looked over and his heart leaped with joy. To think that these were all Immortal Pills! Immortal Pills contained the Laws of the Immortal Dao, and every single one of them had their own uses.
This was especially the case for Lin Fan. These were all experience points.
However, after breaking through to the Golden Immortal state, most Immortal Pills would be useless. Perhaps only Upper or Supreme Grade Immortal Pills would be able to give him a huge amount of experience points.
These Immortal Pills were all Lower and Middle Grade Immortal Pills. That was pretty decent. Since they were gifts from the Grandmaster, Lin Fan naturally had to accept them.
Looking at the generosity of the Grandmaster, Qing Yangzi was in a pretty good mood as well. For a disciple that he had found to be acknowledged by the Grandmaster was a great honor in itself.
Among the treasures, there was a Lower Grade Immortal Weapon that gave off a radiance of the Immortal Dao. For Lin Fan, this was something that he could do without. But for others, this was a different story altogether.
A Lower Grade Immortal Weapon … That was pretty incredible.
"Thank you, Grandmaster." Lin Fan said.
"Yes, train up properly. Be more careful when you head out in the future. That Tai Qiantian is a very petty person. Even though he wouldn't go as far as to take action personally, you'd better be careful no matter what." Han Juntian said.
The one thing that Lin Fan wasn't afraid of the least was trouble. No matter how many came, he would just kill them all. But, if the Grandmaster of the Kunlun God Sect were to strike out personally, things might truly get a little troublesome. But, since the Grandmaster was so certain about it, that meant that it was naturally impossible for that to happen. Even if it did, Lin Fan could tell that the Grandmaster must have prepared a backup plan.
This was especially the case when even he dared to face the Boundless Future Buddha Lord head-on. How could he possibly be afraid of a mere Tai Qiantian?
After giving some instructions, the Grandmaster left the place. At the same time, he gave Lin Fan more authority, promoting him to be one of the candidates for the Grandmaster position, giving him the right to fight for the position of the Grandmaster.
In the sect, apart from the Divine Princes, there were also candidates for the position of Sect Master.
All of these disciples were chosen from the Remnants. However, they did not stay within the sect. Instead, they were roaming the Endless Mainland, and would only return when it was time to fight for the position of the Grandmaster.
Lin Fan had not come into contact with any of these disciples before. The main reason was that his strength was way too low three years ago. At the same time, the Remnants were considered as the top disciples in the sect.
"Lad, you have not let me down indeed. To think that you would give this old man such a huge surprise after three years. This is simply way too astounding!" Qing Yangzi exclaimed.
Lin Fan chuckled out, "Elder Qing Yangzi, who are the candidates for the position of the Grandmaster?"
"Given your current strength, you are also a strong candidate for the position of the Grandmaster. There are a total of twelve people in the sect who can fight for the position of the Grandmaster. Including you, there are a total of thirteen of them now."
"You can take a look at this. The list of candidates for the Grandmaster is within." Qing Yangzi took out a set of jade scrolls.
Lin Fan took a look and his heart skipped a beat. Indeed, this was extraordinary. To think that even the lowest cultivation state would be at the Golden Immortal full cultivation state!
"These disciples do not return to the sect for a long time, and are always cultivating in the Endless Mainland. Other than those few elders of the sect, their positions within the sect are second to none." Qing Yangzi said.
"Oh, so that's the case. That's what I was saying. If the Remnants are the fresh blood of the sect, the sect might not even exist after a hundred years." Lin Fan said.
"Haha!" Qing Yangzi roared out in laughter, "That's not it either. The ones who are truly protecting the sect are still those Senior Elders. They are all comprehending higher cultivation states. Unless the sect is met with a calamity, those Senior Elders would never come out."
"The Heaven and Earth Sect has a legacy of hundreds of thousands of years. Who knows how many generations of Grandmasters there have been. But, after every single Grandmaster abdicates, they would enter the depths of the sect to cultivate. Therefore, as for how deep the sect's foundations are right now, I'm afraid no one other than the Grandmaster knows."
Lin Fan nodded his head, understanding this point. Perhaps, he had been thinking too simply in the past.
At the same time, he also understood that these Grandmaster Candidates did not cultivate within the sect. He also knew that even if they were to cultivate here for their entire lives, they would definitely not be able to improve much. Only by entering the Endless Mainland and going through all sorts of trials and tribulations would they be able to have a brighter future.
"Elder Qing Yangzi, I would like to know about the countless secret grounds and danger zones within the Endless Mainland. After a period of time, I'm going to head out to train myself." Lin Fan said.
"Don't worry. I'll prepare everything for you." Qing Yangzi was definitely going to shoulder everything on his own.
Lin Fan was someone who had been inducted into the sect by him. If he could become the Grandmaster, that would be incredible. Even if he were to die, he would be able to rest in peace in the netherworld.
As for those Grandmaster Candidates, some of them would head out to train for dozens of years, even hundreds of years. As such, no one knew what sort of a cultivation state their strength had reached.
After Qing Yangzi left, Lin Fan returned to his house.
Qiu Zhanyu and Jin Zhengu were interested in the Heaven and Earth Sect.
Lin Fan did not want to bring them along either. After all, it was way too dangerous.
This time around, Lin Fan wanted to head into the depths of the Endless Mainland. There might be even greater dangers lurking there. If he were to be careless, he might just end up dying there.
No one knew how big the Endless Mainland was. Even a powerful being like the Grandmaster had never reached the ends of the Endless Mainland before. There were even more unknown places that they did not know about.
…
After Ling Wuzun returned to the mountain peak, he had already made up his mind.
The performance of Lin Fan upon his return had dealt a huge blow to him. He felt as though he was just like a frog in a well right now. He had already made up his mind.
That was to head out of the sect to train himself. Even if he were to die out there, he had to raise his own strength. If he couldn't suppress Lin Fan, he would feel indignant in his heart. Even if he couldn't, as long as he could be on par with the latter, he would be satisfied.
Three days later, Ling Wuzun left the sect. As for where he was headed, no one knew.
Ten days later …
Lin Fan had made all the preparations in the sect. At the same time, he had also obtained some information about some of the known places of the Endless Mainland from Qing Yangzi.
Qiu Zhanyu and Jin Zhengu's strength had reached the True Immortal state and they had become Inner Sect disciples of the sect. Elder Qing Yangzi was entrusted to take care of them.
At the entrance of the sect …
Qing Yangzi, Qiu Zhanyu, and Jin Zhengu looked at the departing back view of Lin Fan and sighed out.
"Big Bro has left. I wonder when he'll be back." Qiu Zhanyu said reluctantly.
"The next time Big Bro returns, he might bring us an even greater surprise." Jin Zhengu guessed.
Naturally, Qing Yangzi's heart was filled with curiosity as well. He did not know what sort of surprise Lin Fan would bring him.
As for Lin Fan, he was headed in the direction of the Rising Dragon City. He had to pay that place a visit. After all, he had lived there for more than ten years.
