"Greetings, Sect Leader!"
"Greetings, Sect Leader Yuwen from the Li family of Qingyun City!"
"Greetings, Sect Leader Yuwen from the Zhang family of Anxu City!"
… …
When Yuwen Tairan, Chen Hao and the others landed at the entrance, the crowd, who had been waiting for a long time, bowed respectfully.
"Greetings, everyone! Elder Wu, how can you let the guests wait outside? "Yuwen Tairan cupped his fists and returned the greeting. He then looked at Wu Ziqun, who was standing at the entrance.
"Cough cough … Sect Leader, this … There are already many people in the sect. I really can't arrange it … "Wu Ziqun looked embarrassed, but his face was flushed. It was obvious that he was still excited.
"This …" Yuwen Tairan was speechless. He then looked at the crowd and said, "Then I'll have to trouble you for the time being."
"It's fine, it's fine. Sect Leader Yuwen, you just have to tell us when you'll be recruiting disciples. We'll wait."
"Yes, yes, Sect Leader Yuwen, our Third Young Master and Fourth Young Mistress are both Martial Emperors. They are very fond of the Star-Picking Sect …"
"Don't worry, I'll make an announcement within the next month. Everyone, please register with Elder Wu. I'll inform you as soon as possible! "
"Okay, okay …"
"Senior Brother Chen Hao, my name is Li Xiaoye. I'll definitely be your Junior Sister!"
Just as Yuwen Tairan was about to enter the Star-Seizing Gate, a fifteen or sixteen year old girl boldly shouted at Chen Hao, causing many people to raise their eyebrows.
Chen Hao was slightly stunned. He then turned to look at the girl and smiled, "Is that so? You should think about it carefully. Our Star-Picking Sect is only a third-rank sect. Our disciples don't have many benefits. I'm afraid we'll be short of money for the expansion this time. You're quite talented. I advise you to go to another sect. You'll definitely be treated better … "
"Don't worry, I don't want any benefits. Our family will definitely support the Star-Picking Sect. I want to be your Junior Sister!" The bold, passionate, open-minded and intelligent girl did not expect Chen Hao to speak to her. After a short moment of surprise, she spoke loudly.
"Very good. Li Xiaoye? I think highly of you! Come on! It's good that the Star-Picking Sect has such a sensible disciple like you … "
… …
After Chen Hao finished speaking, he turned around and left. He blended into the world and disappeared before everyone's eyes. On the other hand, Yuwen Tairan and the other elders were stunned and dumbfounded as they watched Chen Hao enter the room.
Even Yuwen Tairan didn't expect that Chen Hao's seemingly casual joke would solve a problem that had been bothering him for a long time.
Desperate times call for desperate measures, don't they?
As the head of a sect, he could not say such things. Similarly, the Star-Seizing Sect officials could not have such intentions. Otherwise, they would only be despised. But Chen Hao's words had a completely different meaning.
… …
"Amazing, the number one of the younger generation, really amazing … Can you feel it? He disappeared just like that, without any aura … "
"How can we sense it? It's said that Young Master Chen's concealment skills are so good that even the Sect Leaders of Rank 9 Sects can't sense it! "
"I didn't expect him to be so approachable. This is the demeanor of the number one young master! "
"The Star-Picking Sect broke the rules to become an Rank 8 Sect. Their financial resources can't keep up. With so many people competing, it looks like we have to show enough sincerity!"
… …
Chen Hao had never thought that his low-key method of extorting bamboo poles would actually become amiable and approachable under the halo of the number one person. Moreover, no one thought that Chen Hao had any ulterior motive for saying that. They all thought that he was being approachable.
Geniuses were all proud. How proud would someone like him, who was said to be a one-in-a-thousand-years genius in the Eastern Continent, be? Not to mention talking to you, even looking at you would be disdainful. But Chen Hao didn't show any arrogance in front of everyone.
It had to be said that this was the halo effect. A powerful person's fart could shake mountains and rivers in some people's eyes. It was incomparably powerful!
… …
"Greetings, Sect Leader! Greetings, three elders! Greetings, Senior Brother Chen Hao! "
As Yuwen Tairan and the others flew towards the Star-Plucking Peak, countless disciples on the peak bowed to them from afar. Even Chen Hao bowed to them.
Several inner sect elders also quickly came to greet them. Each of them was extremely surprised and reported the situation in the sect. Tens of thousands of people had been arranged in the huge palace of the welcoming peak. They were either famous itinerant cultivators or the princes and grandsons of some big families or super empires in the cultivation world. Obviously, their identities were much more honorable than those outside.
Chen Hao calmly returned the greeting and followed Yuwen Tairan to the Star-Picking Peak to meet the six Grand Elders who had been waiting at the entrance. After chatting for a while, they returned to their own mountain.
The mountain was very big, and the palace was majestic. However, it was cold and quiet. He thought that Yang Fan and the other two would be there, but he didn't expect to see anyone. Mo Yuyi and Dongfang Jun were still in the Seven Star Grotto-Heaven. The two of them hadn't come out yet. It was obvious that they had improved tremendously. When they came out again, they might be two "Tantai Lians."
"Hiss!"
At this moment, a stream of light flew toward Chen Hao.
"Senior Sister?" Chen Hao's lips curled into a smile as he stared at the rapidly approaching figure.
Dongfang Ting slowly landed in front of Chen Hao and said, "Junior Brother, congratulations!"
"Nascent Soul realm. Senior Sister, you've also broken through …"
"Thank goodness you provided a large amount of Primal Crystal Stones. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to break through. Junior Brother, Yang Fan and the other two sent a message and asked me to congratulate you. They won't be coming back to see you. Little Wu and Little Lian have left, and Little Mo and Little Jun are still in the Seven Star Grotto-Heaven. You don't even have anyone here … I'm afraid there will be many people coming to visit you during this period. Why don't I bring a few people to help you? "
"Of course. It just so happens that I'm planning to go into seclusion for a while. I'll have to trouble you, Senior Sister! "
…
The Star-Picking Sect had been boldly and vigorously expanding its territory. Not only had it expanded to a radius of over a thousand miles, it had also recruited countless new disciples. Most of these new disciples had excellent aptitudes, and were from powerful clans. Of course, there were also many true geniuses. It was much better than the Star-Picking Sect's original source of disciples. With more disciples, the number of outer court elders and inner court elders would naturally increase as well. Such a large-scale expansion would undoubtedly have many drawbacks, but they had no choice but to do so.
Fortunately, the Ling Tian Sect had sent many experts to help. The six great Supreme Elders of the Star-Picking Sect had also personally participated. Everything was done in an orderly manner. Moreover, everyone could clearly feel that the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy in the area where the Star-Picking Sect was located had been constantly increasing. In just a few short months, there was an extremely shocking change. The auspicious light shrouded the area, and its aura was majestic. The Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy in a radius of hundreds of thousands of miles seemed to have condensed into the Star-Picking Sect.
The most mysterious and profound Providence had begun to show its power and affect everyone in the Star-Picking Sect.
Even the disciples who were training outside gradually felt that their minds had become clearer and more agile than before.
…
None of this had anything to do with Chen Hao.
Apart from Dongfang Ting and the few people she brought with her, the mountain where Chen Hao was at was listed as a forbidden area by Yuwen Tairan. Nobody was allowed to disturb Chen Hao's cultivation.
During this period, Chen Hao would only come out to take a breather occasionally. Sometimes, he would go to the Extraterrestrial Waterfall that had become stronger and stay there for a few days. When he was around, all the disciples would consciously avoid him. Sometimes, he would go to the Star-Picking Sect's secret information room that Yuwen Tairan had specially authorized to look for any useful information.
He cultivated, comprehended, and learned. Under this state, half a year passed in the blink of an eye.
…
On this day.
"Phew …"
In the cultivation room, Chen Hao let out a long breath and opened his eyes. His entire aura was clearly much more condensed, stable, and powerful than half a year ago. Especially the essence, energy, and spirit that he naturally exuded was filled with majestic Blood Qi energy. Just by sensing this Blood Qi, one could tell that Chen Hao's current physical body had reached a terrifying level.
Although his body did not seem strong, every movement of his contained a shocking sense of power.
At this time, if an expert saw Chen Hao, he would definitely be extremely shocked.
"After half a year of consolidation, my realm has only reached the peak of the half-step to the Incarnation realm. My sword realm is still at the peak of the fourth level of the Heavenly Realm, and my space realm is still at the early stage of the great success stage, which is the fourth level of the Heavenly Realm. Wind, light, darkness, and fire are all at the third level of the Heavenly Realm … There is not much progress in them. Only my physical body, mental state, and carving skills have improved a lot, especially my physical body … But even so, my strength has increased by two times. If I were to fight Chu Qingtian again, it would be a piece of cake … It's about time. My realm has stabilized. Today, I will enter the Incarnation realm! "
Hiss!
Thinking of this, Chen Hao's figure flashed and disappeared from the cultivation room.
…
The next day, the news that Chen Hao had attracted the Heavenly Punishment that was countless times more terrifying than the ordinary half-step to the Incarnation realm and had successfully withstood it to enter the Incarnation realm began to spread in the cultivation world.
…
"He has entered the Incarnation realm? Then it's time for me to set off … "
In a majestic palace in the Thousand Pill Pavilion, Leng Yihan sat cross-legged in the cultivation room. Mysterious ripples circled around his body. His aura was still at the peak of the early stage of the Incarnation realm, but it was many times more powerful than during the Inter-Sect Competition.
"After forcefully raising my realm, after half a year, I have completely consolidated it. Now, even if my real body's strength is not as strong as his, it is not too far off … It is naturally better to be able to train with him. Otherwise, my real body will encounter a lot of trouble … "
Leng Yihan muttered to himself, but before he could finish, his voice changed into hers. Mysterious and strange aura flashed around his body. In an instant, the original Leng Yihan no longer existed.
Her blue dress fluttered, and her figure was graceful.
Her aura had completely changed, and it was more than a level stronger than before. Even Chen Hao, who had entered the Incarnation realm, was far from her aura.
Then, her blue dress dissipated, and her entire person merged into the world. She turned into a gust of wind and disappeared from the palace.
