For the rest of the time, Chen Zong stayed in Clear Cloud Pavilion to meditate.
A few days later, three people from the Blue Cloud Sect arrived. One of them was a Transcendent Realm master, while the other two were half-step Transcendents. Lin Zhengchun also returned with them.
After the arrival of the Sect's masters, Chen Zong completed his task and immediately left. As for how the affairs of Purple Cloud City would be handled and developed, that would be up to the Blue Cloud Sect. It had nothing to do with Chen Zong.
"You stay here and wait for my news," Chen Zong said to Lin Zhengchun before leaving.
Lin Zhengchun nodded. Since he had already come this far, he could only choose to believe in Chen Zong. He believed that the other party had the ability to let him enter the Blue Cloud Sect and truly become a member of the Blue Cloud Sect.
Becoming a member of the Blue Cloud Sect was Lin Zhengchun's wish. It was because of this that he was willing to cooperate with Chen Zong to take charge of Clear Cloud Pavilion and reorganize Purple Cloud City.
Chen Zong left much faster than when he came, so he returned to the Blue Cloud Sect in a shorter time to meet with Elder Lin.
"Come with me." Elder Lin first looked Chen Zong up and down, then nodded with a smile and said to Chen Zong.
Following Elder Lin, Chen Zong arrived at the Blue Cloud Sect's Clear Cloud Hall.
The Clear Cloud Hall was built at the highest point of Clear Cloud Peak. It was the main hall of the Blue Cloud Sect. Usually, only the Sect Master and the various Elders would come here. Ordinary Inner Sect disciples did not have the qualifications.
Inside the Clear Cloud Hall, Sect Master Li Qingji and a group of Elders were all present.
The Blue Cloud Sect had more than a dozen Transcendent Realm masters, but there was only one Sect Master and not many Inner Sect Elders. There were only five of them, and Elder Lin was one of them.
"Sect Master, Chen Zong is here." Elder Lin said as he led Chen Zong into the main hall. Immediately, everyone's eyes fell on Chen Zong. They were scrutinizing Chen Zong as if they wanted to see through him.
Chen Zong remained calm and indifferent. He was not affected at all.
"Disciple Chen Zong greets Sect Leader and Elders." Chen Zong saluted with his sword.
"Chen Zong, tell me in detail what you did in Purple Cloud City," Elder Lin instructed.
Although Chen Zong's letter was written, Elder Lin felt that it was not detailed enough.
Chen Zong began to tell them everything that had happened after he arrived in the Purple Cloud City. Li Qingji and the elders listened quietly.
Chen Zong's words were clear and his speed was neither fast nor slow. It was very comfortable to listen to and made them feel as if they were there.
Everyone, including Sect Master Li Qingji, felt that it would not be easy to obtain the right to distribute 50% of the Purple Cloud Iron in Purple Cloud City. However, they did not care too much about it. A Purple Cloud City was not worth their effort.
They did not expect that in just a few days, Chen Zong would conquer the Purple Cloud City and directly eradicate the Purple Brilliant Sect's Purple Brilliant House.
When they first heard Elder Lin's words, they thought that he was joking.
Therefore, they were now very curious about how Chen Zong did it. A Foundation Establishment cultivator, without the help of the Sect, had conquered the chaotic Purple Cloud City. It was very curious.
Chen Zong explained the situation in brief but clear words. As for the final harvest in the Purple Cloud Mine, he did not mention it.
"Chen Zong, do you know that deceiving the Sect Leader and the elders is a serious crime?" An elder suddenly spoke with a cold face.
"Elder, how did I deceive them?" Chen Zong asked in a neither servile nor overbearing manner. He was not intimidated at all.
"According to what you said, you are only in the Foundation Establishment Realm. How can you fight against a half-step transcendent, let alone kill one?" The elder's voice became even colder.
A half-step transcendent could control spiritual energy. Under normal circumstances, it was ten times stronger than True Qi. The difference was very shocking.
Chen Zong may be very outstanding and had the strength of one of the top ten inner sect disciples not long after becoming an inner sect disciple. However, it did not mean that he could fight against a half-step transcendent when he was in the Foundation Establishment Realm, even if it was a half-step transcendent outside the Sect.
With a bang, a faint purple cloud gushed out from Chen Zong's body. This was the result of Chen Zong using the Heavenly Illusory Cloud Art to stimulate his True Qi.
Chen Zong's entire body was wrapped in a faint purple cloud, making him look hazy and illusory. It was as if the wind would blow him away. In the eyes of a Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator, they would think that the person in front of them was ethereal and difficult to capture. However, everyone present was a Transcendent Realm master, so they would not be confused.
"Merit Intent!" The elder who questioned Chen Zong suddenly became aghast and exclaimed.
Li Qing Ji and the other elders were also shocked.
They all knew that Chen Zong had chosen the top grade mortal rank Heavenly Illusory Cloud Art in the Azure Cloud Sword Martial Tower and had successfully converted it. It had only been a little over three months, but he had actually cultivated it to the highest level and had even grasped the technique intent.
"Elder, take one of my sword strikes." As soon as Chen Zong's voice fell, the White Grand Sword was unsheathed. Surrounded by a faint purple light, it turned into an extremely sharp sword wave. With a will that could tear the sky apart, it flew towards the elder who questioned Chen Zong.
The moment the sword was unsheathed, the incomparably sharp sword wave had already arrived.
This elder was a Transcendent Realm master, so he reacted in an instant. Using his finger as a sword, he pierced through the sky and struck the sword wave. With a pop, the sword wave was instantly shattered.
However, this elder did not show the slightest bit of pride. Instead, he became even more dignified.
The power contained in the sword wave just now was very strong.
"I take back what I said just now. You indeed have the qualifications to compete with a half-step Transcendent. You even have the qualifications to kill those half-step Transcendents outside the Sect," This elder did not get angry because Chen Zong attacked him. Instead, he said excitedly.
Hearing his words, Sect Master Li Qing Ji and the other elders became even more shocked.
"If I'm not wrong, you're cultivating the Beheading Wind Sword Art." The elder asked again, his voice filled with excitement, "Moreover, you've already grasped the Beheading Wind Sword Intent."
Li Qing Ji and the others did not know how to express the shock in their hearts.
If they were not wrong, Chen Zong should have only been cultivating the top quality Mortal Grade Secret Art and Sword Art for a little more than three months. Not only had he grasped the Secret Art, but he had also grasped the Sword Intent.
How did he cultivate?
Li Qing Ji and the other elders only felt that their minds were not enough. The more they thought about it, the more shocked they became.
From birth until now, they had never encountered such a situation. Perhaps, they had only heard some legends in the past, but those had nothing to do with the Blue Cloud Sect or even the Dong Chen Region.
After a while, the Sect Master and the elders gradually calmed down.
"Chen Zong, you've indeed surprised us, but even if you've grasped the Secret Art and Sword Intent, you shouldn't have the strength to fight against and kill a half-step Transcendent when you're only at the mid stage of the ninth layer of the Foundation Establishment Realm." Li Qing Ji spoke for the first time and also pointed out this point.
The half-step Transcendent outside the Sect cultivated at least a high quality Mortal Grade Secret Art and Martial Art. Their spirit force was very strong and their Martial Art was at least at the Transcendent Realm. When they used their full strength, other than some special ninth layer Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators, no one else would be their match.
What was a special ninth layer Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator?
For example, when Yang Chaofan reached the ninth layer of the Foundation Establishment Realm, the white lightning he controlled would be even more powerful. He would have the strength to threaten ordinary half-step Transcendent cultivators.
"Sect Master, Elders, I'm sure you can feel that my True Qi is different from normal top quality Mortal Grade True Qi." Chen Zong did not hesitate and quickly replied.
"Indeed, your Zhen Qi is much purer than the top grade Zhen Qi of the mortal level. It's already very close to the spiritual energy of a normal half-step Transcendent." The elder who shattered Chen Zong's sword beam felt it the most directly.
"I believe you must have some secrets on your body." Li Qingji's eyes suddenly became sharp like a sword that had been unsheathed. Chen Zong was startled as he felt a strong sense of threat for no reason. Soon after, the light in Li Qingji's eyes receded and became profound. He smiled faintly, "However, many geniuses have their own secrets. That's nothing. The sect will provide you with an environment for cultivation and a certain amount of protection, but we won't look into your secrets or covet your fortuitous encounters. However, we hope that you won't harm the interests of the sect. If you can contribute to the sect, that would be for the best."
"If we don't disappoint you, then Disciple won't abandon you," Chen Zong said solemnly.
His words were simple, but they were very clear. He directly expressed his attitude.
'If the Blue Cloud Sect doesn't disappoint me, then I will be loyal to the Blue Cloud Sect. On the other hand, if the Blue Cloud Sect doesn't disappoint me, then they have no right to ask me for anything.'
Li Qing Ji and the others could not help but smile. They felt that this disciple had a strong personality.
People with strong personalities would sometimes be liked, but sometimes they would be hated. It depended on the situation and whether or not they had the ability to show their personality.
A personality without any ability was called arrogance.
"Completing the mission only qualifies you to become a true disciple. However, due to your outstanding performance, you will be specially promoted to a true disciple," Li Qing Ji said with a smile.
"Congratulations, Chen Zong. You are now the fifth true disciple of the Blue Cloud Sect," Elder Lin said with a smile.
Obtaining the qualification did not mean that one would definitely become a true disciple. Of course, there was a high chance, but one would still need to go through some tests and spend a lot of time.
But now, Chen Zong had directly skipped this stage and was now the fifth true disciple.
Completing the mission in the Purple Cloud City was only one of the reasons. The other reason was naturally Chen Zong's amazing perception.
In just over three months, he had cultivated a top grade mortal level cultivation method and a top grade mortal level sword art to the extreme and grasped martial intent. If this news were to spread, it would cause a great sensation.
With such an outstanding performance, he was not inferior to Yang Chaofan, who was born with extraordinary strength. With proper training, he would be able to make the Blue Cloud Sect even stronger in the future.
"Chen Zong, that Yu Jingtian is one of the top ten inner disciples of the Purple Glory Sect. He is also a disciple of one of the elders. This time, he was almost killed by you. He has a grudge in his heart. In the future, when you leave the sect, you must be careful," Li Qing Ji said.
"This time, that old man Yu Wenhua will probably explode with anger," Elder Lin said with a smile.
"With Chen Zong's ability, he may be able to break through to the Transcendent Realm in a few years. At that time, if Yu Wenhua wants to deal with him, he will have to think twice," The Elder who questioned Chen Zong just now also laughed.
