Jianchen sat in his dwelling on the Soaring Clouds Peak. He stared at the opened jade bottle in his hand as he waited quietly.
He knew that Xuan Ming's father would be able to sense his son's bloodline. However, this sensation would only work within a certain range. Once the distance was too great, even an expert like Xuan Ming's father would lose his ability to sense his son's bloodline.
"I hope Xuan Ming's father hasn't left the Radiant Saint Hall," Jian Chen prayed inside. Jian Chen prayed inside. If he wanted to enter the Tower of Radiance successfully in his current situation, he really would need the assistance of Xuan Ming's father.
This was because every single retainer among the five candidates had the support of someone behind them. If Jianchen did not find a backer, how would he be able to compete against them?
As a result, Jianchen had no choice but to find Xuan Ming's father.
However, at this moment, Jianchen suddenly sensed danger. In the next moment, his vision blurred, and a white-robed, burly, middle-aged man with a chiseled face silently appeared before him.
The middle-aged man had arrived silently like a ghost. The simple formations that Jianchen had cast down outside the dwelling were completely useless.
The middle-aged man was one of the eight vice-leaders of the Radiant Saint Hall, Xuan Zhan.
As soon as Xuan Zhan arrived, he stared at the jade bottle in Jian Chen's hand with his sharp eyes. He could not help but become excited on his cold, resolute face.
"Where did you obtain this droplet of blood?" Xuan Zhan asked. His gaze was as sharp as a sword as he stared at Jianchen firmly.
Jianchen immediately felt a piercing pain. Xuan Zhan's gaze was just too sharp. It actually made Jianchen feel pain all over.
Jianchen immediately became respectful. He bowed towards Xuan Zhan and said, "Senior must be Xuan Ming's father."
A gleam of light flashed through Xuan Zhan's eyes when he heard that. He growled, "You actually know about Ming 'er? Tell me, how's Ming 'er right now? "
"Don't worry, senior. I have a message from Xuan Ming," Jianchen said before taking out the jade slip Xuan Ming had given him.
Xuan Zhan was unable to contain his excitement when he heard that it was a message from Xuan Ming. He snatched the jade slip from Jianchen eagerly and immediately checked the information inside.
"Ming 'er is still alive. He's still alive …" With that thought, Xuan Zhan read through all the contents of the jade slip. A smile that he had not seen for many years actually appeared on his cold, resolute face. At that moment, he seemed to have become much more relaxed.
Indeed, after learning that Xuan Ming was still alive, Xuan Zhan finally felt a huge weight lifted from his heart. He truly felt relieved.
"Where is Ming 'er right now? And when did you meet Ming 'er? "Xuan Zhan's gaze towards Jian Chen immediately became amiable.
This was because Xuan Ming had clearly pointed out that Chang Yang was his friend and had helped him in the past. As a result, Xuan Zhan was naturally much friendlier towards someone who had helped his son and brought him news.
"Xuan Ming is in a very safe place. There's no need to worry about the great demon he spoke of finding him there at all. It's inconvenient for me to tell you the exact location. I met Xuan Ming around a few years ago, "Jianchen replied.
Xuan Zhan became cautious, "I was careless. If that's the case, you can't tell me where Xuan Ming is. That person is just too powerful. His comprehension of the ways has completely surpassed the hall master's. People at that level all possess heaven-defying abilities. Once you tell him, he might be able to find Ming 'er's whereabouts directly."
Xuan Zhan paused there. He stared at Jianchen in interest and said, "You're called Chang Yang, right? Since you're acquainted with Ming 'er and have helped him in the past, I'll repay this favour for him as his father. Chang Yang, may I ask if you're willing to accept me as your master? "
"Once you accept me as your master, I will nurture you without holding back until you reach mid seven-colored soulcore," Xuan Zhan said directly.
Xuan Zhan directly considered taking Jian Chen as a disciple. If news of this spread, it would be enough to throw the entire Radiant Saint Hall into an uproar.
Even the five candidates were taught by the elders in the Radiant Saint Hall. None of them had the right to accept a vice-leader as their master.
If they could become a vice-leader's disciple, their status would immediately skyrocket even if they were an ordinary disciple with a weaker cultivation. They would become someone who stood above the five candidates. Their future would be limitless.
Even the status of Chosen Saint was not as valuable as becoming a vice-leader's disciple. This was because the Chosen Saint only changed once every thousand years. A Chosen Saint could only receive a thousand years of nurturing, but there was no time limit for becoming a vice-leader's disciple.
Throughout the history of the Radiant Saint Hall, even Chosen Saints did not have the right to become a vice-leader's disciple. They would only receive the guidance of the vice-leaders or even the leader from time to time when they were Chosen Saints. After a thousand years, they would still be who they were.
It could be said that right now, Jianchen was presented with an opportunity that all Hallowed Saint Masters would go crazy over. Even the five candidates could only wish for it.
However, Jianchen was unmoved. He said apologetically, "Thank you for your kind intentions, senior. However, I already have a master, so I'm unwilling to accept another."
Xuan Zhan was surprised. He could not help but study Jianchen properly. He said, "Do you know what it means to become my disciple? Moreover, I, Xuan Zhan, still have no disciples. If you become my disciple, you will be my only disciple. Your status will only be greater than the disciples of the seven vice-leaders. "
"I understand. As the saying goes, the master leads the way, but cultivation is up to the individual. Now that I've begun under the guidance of my master, I'll have to rely on myself for my future cultivation. Right now, my greatest wish is to enter the Tower of Radiance. It's said that that's where Hallowed Saint Masters originated from, "said Jianchen.
Xuan Zhan glanced at Jianchen deeply and said, "Since you've already made up your mind, I won't force you. This is my medallion. If you need anything in the future, you can come to the sacred hall with this medallion to find me. "Xuan Zhan left behind a medallion and vanished silently. He had left the Soaring Clouds Peak.
Jianchen smiled as he looked at the white medallion that hovered before him. He knew that he had the right to fight for a spot in the Tower of Radiance with this medallion.
In the blink of an eye, three days had passed. On this day, the battle for the position of Chosen Saint had officially begun. Early in the morning, many peak masters left their peaks and flew towards the Sacred Temple that stood above the clouds.
The competition for the position of Chosen Saint was held in the sacred hall. Only the peak lords and a small number of Hallowed Saint Masters with backgrounds had the right to enter that place.
As a result, only the peak lords had the right to witness the competition for the position of Chosen Saint.
Jianchen stood outside his dwelling on the Soaring Clouds Peak as he gazed into the distance. With his vision, he could easily see through the clouds and see the situation a million kilometres away. He could clearly see the various peak lords fly towards the sacred hall with Radiance at a steady pace politely.
Afterwards, a layer of light permeated Jianchen's surroundings. He condensed a pair of Radiant Wings and flew towards the sacred hall as well.
"Stop! Who are you? The sacred hall is not a place where you can set foot in!" Before Jianchen had even reached the sacred hall, he was stopped by a group of violet-robed guards when he had only approached a certain distance.
The group of violet-robed guards glared at Jian Chen.
Jianchen said nothing. With a flip of his hand, he took out Xuan Zhan's medallion.
"The vice-leader's medallion …"
The faces of the violet-robed guards all changed when they saw the medallion in Jianchen's hand. They all cried out as their gazes towards Jianchen underwent an overwhelming change.
"May I ask if I have the right to enter the sacred hall now?" Jianchen asked leisurely as he held the medallion.
