Greetings, Sect Master! "
"Greetings, Sect Master!"
Almost a hundred core members of the Path of the Saint Lotus and tens of thousands of its elites bowed to the young and dignified figure in the air.
At this moment, sensing Lin Xuan's dense, domineering, and condensed Transcendent aura, everyone couldn't help but feel awe and respect from the bottom of their hearts.
Moreover, because of the Profound Heavenly Sword, Lin Xuan also had a trace of a divine and mysterious aura. Everyone below couldn't help but feel a trace of reverence and worship from the depths of their hearts, as if they were facing a god.
In just half a year, Daolord Lin had actually overcome the Transcendent Realm tribulation and become a Transcendent Realm expert. This cultivation speed was truly breathtaking.
Of course, they didn't know that if the time he spent in seclusion at the Swift Wind Hall by the River of Time was included, Lin Xuan had actually spent more than twenty years.
Lin Xuan naturally wouldn't explain. He looked down from above and slowly swept his deep and unfathomable gaze across the faces of his subordinates. He nodded slightly and said indifferently, "Everyone has worked hard in the half year that I was away. You may rise!"
"Thank you, Sect Master!"
Everyone straightened up and quietly sized up Lin Xuan with gazes of reverence, respect, and curiosity.
Lin Xuan didn't mind. He ordered his subordinates to clean up the mess in the space and strengthen their defenses against the next attack of the Demon Race.
Then, he descended from the sky and summoned Maki Cangsheng, Dun Fei, Li Qiushui, Mu Qingxue, and the other core members of the Path of the Path in front of him. He inquired about the recent situation in detail.
He looked at Maki Cangsheng and said, "Maki Cangsheng, report to me what has happened in the past half a year!"
"Yes!"
Maki Cangsheng cupped his hands slightly and said, "Dao Master, for the past half a year, the Dao has been following the strategy you set previously, gradually nibbling away at the forces of the three neighboring empires. Our progress can be said to be extremely fast. Now, in the fifty-three prefectures of Qiannan, sixty percent of the sects and clans have joined our Dao of the Divine Lotus.
As long as we are willing, we can overturn the three dynasties in an extremely short amount of time.
Of course, if we make a move now, we won't have enough time, and we might have to pay a heavy price for it.
If he had more time, it would be much easier and the price he had to pay would be much smaller.
In addition, in the past six months, our Saint Lotus Path has been invaded several times by external enemies.
Five months ago, Venerable Qing Xuan gathered some of the remaining members of the Keelung Sect and launched a sneak attack on our Greater One Sacred Mountain, but we repelled them.
Four months ago, more than thirty experts of the Dragons clan tried to barge into the secret realm of our Saint Lotus Path. Their intentions were unclear and they were all killed by us in the end.
Two months ago, the Blackwater Alliance attacked. Their Great Elder Long Ju led thousands of elites and launched a sneak attack on the Greater One Sacred Mountain.
After two days and two nights of battle, the Blackwater Alliance lost more than half of their men and returned in defeat.
However, we also suffered great losses in that battle, with thousands of casualties.
Your doppelganger, the Dragon Sealing Pagoda, Shen Yueling, Zhong Xingyu and dozens of other elders were all cursed by Long Ju and are still in a coma.
In addition to these few large-scale battles, there were also some confrontations against the spies of other forces, but we did not suffer any losses.
As for the invasion of the Demon Race, it just happened the day before yesterday.
Against the Demon Race, I dare not be careless. After a discussion in front of the palace, everyone agreed to temporarily transfer the elites from various places to stop the Demon Race.
However, this has also led to the weakness of our forces in various places. I'm afraid this is not a long-term solution. Dao Master, please make early plans. "
When Lin Xuan heard this, his face was calm and his eyes flickered slightly.
He did not expect that in just half a year, the Holy Lotus Path had experienced so many things.
The remnants of the Keelung Sect, the Dragons clan, the Blackwater Alliance, the Demon Race — — these opponents were quite troublesome!
The remnants of the Keelung Sect led by Qing Xuan had always been surrounded and suppressed by the Holy Lotus Path. It was normal for them to make a few last-ditch struggles.
As for the Dragons clan sending experts to infiltrate the Holy Lotus Path, it was most likely for the Rank Five dragon egg.
However, Lin Xuan was a little surprised that the Blackwater Alliance would attack the Holy Lotus Path.
Although the Divine Lotus Road was expanding rapidly, it was far from the territory of the Blackwater Alliance, and there was the Dali Dynasty in between. Even if Lin Xuan had a deep enmity with the Blackwater Alliance in the past, it was not to the extent of mobilizing so many people, right?
"Why did the Blackwater Alliance come?" Lin Xuan asked.
Maki Cangsheng said, "Nominally, they want the Heavenly Dao Treasure Tree and Elder Xiao Wushe, but according to my guess, their ultimate goal should be the Chaotic True Gold."
"I see." Lin Xuan was enlightened.
A piece of Chaotic True Gold was indeed worth the Blackwater Alliance's full effort.
Unfortunately, the Blackwater Alliance underestimated the strength of the Holy Lotus Path, so much so that they were badly battered.
Lin Xuan pondered for a while, then ordered, "There is no need to leave too many people here. Send back the elites that were transferred from various places. A mere Demon Race passage is not worth our Holy Lotus Path mobilizing so many people."
"Yes, I will do it now!" Maki Cangsheng bowed and left.
At this moment, Mu Qingxue knitted her brows and could not help but say, "Lin Xuan … Path Master, the Demon Race on the other side is probably not weak. It is very likely that there are Demons of the sixth step. If we do not deal with them with all our strength, I'm afraid we will suffer a great loss."
Lin Xuan looked at that familiar and beautiful face, and said with a confident smile, "Don't worry, no matter how strong the other side is, I have the confidence to deal with them."
"Hmm?"
Mu Qingxue stared blankly. Soon after, she seemed to have thought of something. Her beautiful eyes widened, and she asked involuntarily, "Lin Xuan, could it be that you have really become …"
When Mu Jiansheng came to give her the Ice Emperor's Seal, he had vaguely mentioned that Lin Xuan had already become the new Master of the Mortal Emperor Sword.
However, Mu Qingxue was skeptical about this. After all, everyone in the world knew that the Mortal Emperor's Sword had been controlled by the Ji Family since ancient times, and outsiders were not allowed to touch it.
Lin Xuan smiled and nodded. He glanced at everyone around and said, "I did not intend to hide this matter from everyone. This time, I left for half a year to enter the Mortal Emperor's Secret Realm and participate in the fight for the Mortal Emperor's Sword."
When everyone heard this, their eyes could not help but light up, and they all pricked up their ears.
Lin Xuan continued, "Moreover, I was lucky enough to pass the test left behind by the Mortal Emperor, and became the new Master of the Mortal Emperor's Sword."
When Lin Xuan's voice fell, there was a dead silence below. Everyone stared in shock, and their faces were full of disbelief.
It was only after a long time that there was a burst of excited voices.
"Hiss … Did I hear wrongly? The Path Master became the Master of the Mortal Emperor's Sword? He obtained the Mortal Emperor's Sword? Is this true? "
"This … This is simply too unbelievable! Isn't the Mortal Emperor's Sword only inherited by the descendants of the Mortal Emperor? "
"I must be dreaming!"
"The Sect Leader has the Mortal Emperor's Sword, so the Demon Clan is naturally nothing to worry about!"
"Great, this is great! The heavens are really protecting our Divine Lotus Path … "
All the higher-ups of the Divine Lotus Path were extremely excited.
The Mortal Emperor's Sword was the supreme godly sword of the human race. Since the birth of the human race, there was only one!
Whoever controlled the Mortal Emperor's Sword was destined to be the one.
Now that Lin Xuan had become the Master of the Mortal Emperor's Sword, his future was bound to be limitless.
As for the higher-ups of the Divine Lotus Path, as well as the hundreds of millions of disciples below, they would definitely be blessed by the fate of the human race, and their room for improvement would be even wider.
In terms of practical benefits, Lin Xuan, as the Master of the Mortal Emperor's Sword, represented the orthodox righteousness of the human race. This would be extremely beneficial to the expansion of the Divine Lotus Path's power and territory in the future.
This was like the relationship between officials and bandits in the mortal world.
In the past, the Divine Lotus Path was a group of powerful bandits that dominated both the righteous and the righteous.
But now, this group of bandits had become the biggest government in the country. In the future, when they faced other forces, they would have a natural advantage.
After a brief moment of chaos, everyone knelt on one knee and shouted in unison, "Congratulations, Path Master! Congratulations, Path Master!"
At this moment, everyone's eyes were filled with longing for the future. Even the worry of the Demon Race's invasion was washed away.
Mu Qingxue's eyes were also bright. She could not hide the joy on her face, and there were ripples in the depths of her eyes.
In fact, she had always been worried in the depths of her heart. She was worried that Lin Xuan would completely slide into the abyss of the Demon Path.
She was worried that one day in the future, Lin Xuan might become a cold, heartless, unscrupulous, selfish, and violent Demon Disciple.
This was because in her opinion, Lin Xuan had always been on this path, and he was going further and further down it.
This had almost become a thorn in her heart. Although she had fallen in love with Lin Xuan, she did not dare to completely entrust herself to Lin Xuan. Although the two of them were close, they were not inseparable. There had always been a slight barrier between them.
But at this moment, this trace of worry and barrier instantly vanished.
Mu Qingxue heaved a sigh of relief in her heart. Her heart was completely tied to Lin Xuan.
Lin Xuan had become the Master of the Sword of the Human Sovereign. This was an honor, and also a responsibility. This would allow Lin Xuan's actions in the future to focus on the greater good of the Human Race and the people of the world.
No matter what Lin Xuan did in the future, it would be impossible for him to fall into the Demon Path.
At this moment, Lin Xuan could not help but feel proud when he saw the respectful and reverent expressions of his subordinates.
Although he was not yet qualified to wield the Human Sovereign Sword, just the title of Master of the Human Sovereign Sword was enough to bring him endless benefits.
Many of the higher-ups of the Divine Lotus Path under his command had been controlled by him through various means. For example, Maki Cangsheng, Yan Hui, Tie Lie, Xiao Wushe, and so on.
These people might have completely submitted to him on the surface, but no one knew what they were really thinking.
But now, he had become the Master of the Human Sovereign Sword, and the only powerful person in the world. Following him would bring a bright future, but betraying him would bring a high price. As long as they were not fools, they would know what to choose.
"Alright, all of you may rise."
Lin Xuan waved his hand and said righteously, "As the Master of the Human Sovereign Sword, I will be mindful of the greater good of the world and the welfare of the entire Human Race.
You should also be the role model of the world. You also need to control your subordinates. Do not do anything tyrannical and tarnish the reputation of the Divine Lotus Path. Otherwise, the rules of the Dao and the heavens will not tolerate it! Do you all remember? "
"We will remember Master's teachings!"
"We will never forget …"
Everyone quickly expressed their stance.
At this moment, Wu Huan said excitedly, "Master, you have become the new Master of the Human Sovereign Sword and wield the destiny of the Human Race. This is a great event for the entire Human Race. I think we should announce this to the martial arts world and even the entire world!"
"Yes!"
Lin Xuan nodded.
Until now, only the Ji Family and the Mu Family knew that he had become the Master of the Human Sovereign Sword in the Realm of True Force.
However, these two families would definitely not be enthusiastic about helping him advertise. He had to rely on himself.
In order to make it easier for the various forces to choose sides in the future and avoid misjudgments, Lin Xuan felt that it was better to announce this as soon as possible.
After that, Lin Xuan made some arrangements for everyone and dismissed them. He left the underground space with Maki Cangsheng and Dun Fei and flew to the end of the Illusory Demon Orb.
At the end of the small world, on a barren land, stood a bronze tower more than three hundred meters tall. Nine thick iron chains were scattered on the ground weakly. They were dim and lifeless.
Lin Xuan stood in the air and looked at the Dragon-sealing Tower below. He frowned slightly.
At this moment, the exterior of the Dragon-sealing Tower was covered with marks of being hacked by swords and poisoned by fire. There were also a few serious dents. It had obviously gone through a fierce battle.
The Nine-headed Snake Spirit of the Dragon-sealing Tower and Lin Xuan's Imperial Dao Clone were both unconscious. Without anyone controlling the Dragon-sealing Tower, it lacked the ability to repair itself, so it could not be restored to its original state.
