When the news of Xian Ling's reappearance circulated around, the entire Shang Qing Sect fell into a state of silence.
10 years ago, he created a storm with his dazzling demeanor that engulfed the entire Shang Qing Sect. Everyone who heard what he had done was more or less shocked. Even a great figure like the Sect Master was a little surprised.
It was also because of the groundwork from ten years ago that this incident was especially shocking. It was like the return of a king, displaying his peerless might!
Even though Ling Xian only did missions with crafts and didn't do any missions with arrays, his 100 perfect evaluations still shocked everyone.
Therefore, when this news circulated around, it once again shocked the Shang Qing Sect!
From the Supreme Headmaster to the patrolling disciples, everyone heard this news and fell into a state of shock.
At once, the name Xian Ling once again created a tidal wave. No matter where he went, he would hear people talking about his feats and his mysterious identity.
Some people guessed that he was a new pupil. The reason was because he appeared out of nowhere and nobody has heard of this name before.
However, the moment this guess popped up, it was denied.
What a joke. A new pupil must be from the younger generation. How could someone from the younger generation have such terrifying attainments?
Therefore, even though someone said that Xian Ling was a new pupil, nobody believed them.
On the other hand, as soon as another guess appeared, it attracted the response of countless people, and it quickly gained the absolute upper hand. That was, they guessed that Ling Xian was a hidden grandmaster of the Shang Qing Sect.
Whether it was from the fact that he appeared out of nowhere or the fact that he was a master of both arrays and crafts, this guess was very accurate.
Therefore, this guess slowly took root in the hearts of those who didn't know the truth and became an unshakable fact.
However, to those who knew the truth, this guess was laughable and shocking.
For example, the Supreme Headmaster, Ji Qian Bai, knew very well that Ling Xian was a new pupil and not some hidden grandmaster.
It was because he knew that he was shocked.
Or in other words, everyone who knew his young age felt a strong sense of shock.
How powerful did someone have to be for people to subconsciously treat him as a grandmaster who has lived for hundreds of years and trust him without a doubt?
No one knew for sure, but everyone knew that he must be extremely powerful. Otherwise, it would be impossible for them to treat him as a master!
Therefore, as much as those who knew of Ling Xian's young age found it funny, they were also shocked.
Yu Wu Xiu was one of them.
At the same time that she was shocked, the greed in her heart grew stronger.
She knew very well that Ling Xian was very young. Even though ten years had passed, he was still a member of the younger generation in the Immortal Cultivation World. He was no different from a twenty-year-old.
At such a young age, he was able to achieve such a glorious achievement in Tools Method. This was enough to prove that his talent in Tools Method was not ordinary. At the very least, she was as talented as him in the Array Dao.
Therefore, why wouldn't Yu Wu Xiu be tempted?
However, her dream wasn't to become a great master of arrays and crafts. She wanted to be a powerful Empress who ruled over all nine levels of heaven and all 10 levels of hell.
In other words, what she needed the most was talent in cultivation.
Though Ling Xian's clone had reached the tenth level of Qi and was considered a genius, in her eyes, he wasn't much.
Plus, she only had the ability to steal another person's talent once. If Ling Xian's talent wasn't that great, then she would've wasted her treasure.
Therefore, Yu Wu Xiu had been hesitating. She wasn't sure if she should make a decision now or wait a little longer.
After hesitating for a while, she finally made up her mind and decided to wait a little longer. If Ling Xian shows off his talent, then she will make her move. If not, then she will have to find someone else.
…..
Ling Xian didn't know about Yu Wu Xiu's hesitation and decision.
Even if he did, he wouldn't be disappointed. Because he knew very well that the most important thing for this woman was talent in cultivation. His talent in Arrays and Crafts alone would only add to his points. It would not move Yu Wu Xiu.
Against this, Ling Xian was prepared.
Since this woman valued talent in cultivation, then wouldn't it be over if he showed off his talent? The best time to show off his talent would be during the Competition of the Four Paths.
Not only would he gain a large amount of contribution points, but he would also be able to move Yu Wu Xiu. He was killing two birds with one stone.
After deciding on his plan, Ling Xian's days finally calmed down.
Every day, he would find Dong Fang Bi to chat and earn some contribution points. When he had nothing to do, he would study the Immortal of Crafts' inheritance and improve his skills with crafts. Then, he would take out some time for his real body to train every day.
Of course, he would go to the Hall of Mission once a day. After completing 100 missions, he would silently leave, leaving behind countless gazes filled with respect.
This was his entire life.
Just like that, Ling Xian spent his days leisurely studying the Immortal of Crafts' inheritance and earning contribution points. His days passed by in peace and comfort. He wouldn't trade this for an Immortal.
Of course, this peace was only to him. To the Shang Qing Sect, they were in a state of shock.
What could they do? Ling Xian was far too powerful. So what if he was doing missions? Everyone in the Shang Qing Sect was doing missions, so it wasn't a big deal. But every single character he created had a perfect evaluation!
Therefore, why would the Shang Qing Sect stop?
Especially those who often go to the Hall of Mission, they were shocked to a point of no return. However, to the lower leveled cultivators, this was great news.
After all, the descendants had no background and no wealth. To have a master like Ling Xian to answer their questions was a great blessing.
But in conclusion, every time Ling Xian arrived at the Hall of Mission, it meant this place was no longer peaceful and was destined to experience a series of violent shocks.
After a while, even the elders responsible for the Hall of Mission were no longer calm. They were all shocked by Ling Xian's perfect evaluation.
Though these Elders were in charge of the grading system and could give Ling Xian whatever they wanted, they could give him the worst grade. Why else would they say that this man was far too insane?
For every single mission, he only made a few strokes, but every single one of them was full of mysteries that convinced all the elders!
They had no choice but to give him a perfect evaluation. Or else their inner demons would be born. Therefore, how could these people remain calm?
But as time went on and the number of perfect missions increased, these people became numb.
After all, the reason why shocking things are shocking is because they don't happen often. If something happens often, then it's not shocking, it's normal.
Yes, to everyone in the Shang Qing Sect, it was normal for Ling Xian to complete perfect missions. If he didn't reach the perfect level, then it would be strange!
One has to admit that this man was insane!
Just as everyone in the Shang Qing Sect was numb and no longer shocked by the perfect missions, three months had passed. In other words, the Competition of the Four Paths was about to arrive.
Therefore, after the Shang Qing Sect finally walked out from the shock brought by Ling Xian, it once again became restless.
After all, the Competition of the Four Paths occurs once every 10 years and was an important competition for the Shang Qing Sect. Even the Supreme Headmaster was paying attention to it, let alone others.
Especially those who just joined the Sect in the last 10 years. They were rubbing their fists and were full of anticipation.
To these descendants, the Competition of the Four Paths was a place where they could become famous. Ignoring the rich rewards they would receive after winning, the possibility of being recognized by some important figures during the competition was something they would do their best to show off.
On top of that, the rewards that everyone was drooling over were enough to make them fight each other to the death!
Third place, 10,000 contribution points, an opportunity to meditate at the Cliff of Enlightenment for half an hour.
Second place, 20,000 contribution points, an opportunity to meditate at the Cliff of Enlightenment for two hours.
First place, 50,000 contribution points, an opportunity to meditate at the Cliff of Enlightenment for one day.
These were the rewards for the Competition of the Four Paths. Every path's reward was the same. Even third place's reward was extremely generous.
Contribution points didn't need much to be said. As long as one has enough, one can exchange for the most valuable inheritance in the Shang Qing Sect.
The Cliff of Enlightenment was a strange place in the Shang Qing Sect. There were experiences left behind by the previous generations of omnipotent. Legend had it that as long as one's enlightenment is good enough, not only can one learn from the omnipotent's experiences, but they can also learn some techniques.
Therefore, the Cliff of Enlightenment was also known as heaven for everyone. Even staying there for half an hour was an extremely valuable opportunity, let alone staying there for an entire day.
From certain angles, this was even more valuable than the 50,000 contribution points!
Therefore, when this reward was announced, the descendants who didn't know about it went insane. Even the descendants who knew about it found it hard to contain their excitement.
Even Ling Xian couldn't help but to have high hopes.
Currently, inside Dong Fang Bi's palace.
After hearing about the rewards from the Cliff of Enlightenment, Ling Xian's eyes turned heated.
At first, he only knew that there would be 50,000 contribution points in this competition. He didn't know that there would be a chance to go to the Cliff of Enlightenment. Now that he heard about it, his anticipation intensified.
He knew very well how magical the Cliff of Enlightenment was. With his enlightenment abilities, even if he only stayed there for half an hour, he would be able to learn a lot of valuable experiences.
Don't forget, he was aiming for the winning title from the very beginning. The winning title of all four paths!
In other words, if he wins all four paths, then he can stay at the Cliff of Enlightenment for a full four days. And with his extraordinary comprehension, who knew how much valuable experience and knowledge he would gain in four days!
Thinking about this shocking number, Ling Xian's eyes burned with passion. He grinned, "The House sure is going all out this time. The Cliff of Enlightenment is not that easy to open."
"That's right. You are tempted, aren't you?"
Seeing the passion in Ling Xian's eyes, Dong Fang Bi smiled. But very quickly, he sighed, "If you participate in the Competition of Crafts, I wonder how many people's hopes will be destroyed."
