Lin Xuan slowly looked down and saw that there were more than three hundred experts in the hall. All of them were God Astral Realm experts, and more than eighty percent of them were young people. As for the True Energy Realm martial artists, they were not qualified to enter yet.
These three hundred people were divided into dozens of groups of various sizes.
At this moment, Lin Xuan couldn't help but be secretly happy. If this faction was completely under his control, his strength and influence would definitely rise to a terrifying level. Even if he were to start an all-out war with the Extinction Dragon Sect in the Northern Wasteland, he wouldn't need to be afraid.
Everyone had arrived.
Under everyone's gaze, Lin Xuan stood up from his seat, looked down, and said loudly, "Everyone, you are the cornerstones of the Magic Lotus Sect. You are all meritorious members of the Magic Lotus Sect! Our Magic Lotus Sect has survived to this day after the calamity, all of you have contributed greatly!
I, Lin Xuan, as the Sect Leader of the Magic Lotus Sect, represent the Demon Abyss and the people of the world to thank all of you for your hard work over the years!
Everyone present today, regardless of position, will receive an Earth-rank inheritance. The leaders of each branch will also receive a Heaven-rank inheritance as a reward for your contributions! "
Wow —
As soon as Lin Xuan finished speaking, there was an uproar below.
Almost everyone's eyes were burning, especially some young martial artists. Their breathing quickened as they were extremely excited.
The reason why they traveled hundreds of thousands of miles to visit Lin Xuan in Heavenly Tripod City was mostly to obtain the Magic Lotus Sect's higher martial arts inheritance.
As disciples of the Magic Lotus Sect, the martial arts that were most compatible with them would naturally be the Magic Lotus Sect's unique inheritance.
The Magic Lotus Sect had stood tall in the world for thousands of years, and it had already proven the strength of its inheritance.
However, when the twelve Sect Leaders disappeared at the same time, the Dao Seal and Secondary Seal were also taken back by the Demon Abyss, causing the various branches to almost lose their inheritance.
Now that Lin Xuan had just opened his mouth to bestow a cultivation technique, everyone was naturally excited.
"Thank you, Sect Leader!"
"Sect Leader is so generous!"
"Good! That was great! With my sect's inheritance, this old man might be able to advance to the next level! "
The crowd below cupped their hands and expressed their gratitude. They were extremely happy.
However, there were also a few extremely ambitious fellows whose expressions were indifferent, and their eyes faintly revealed disdain.
These guys were here for the Vice Hierarch Seal. As long as they obtained the Vice Hierarch Seal, they could obtain any inheritance they wanted. What was a mere Earth Rank or Heaven Rank inheritance to them?
Lin Xuan continued, "Everyone, as the saying goes, nothing can be accomplished without rules. Since I am already in this position and shoulder the heavy responsibility of reviving the Magic Lotus Sect, I naturally have to re-establish the rules of the Magic Lotus Sect!
Next, please leave your names in my Dao Sect's golden book. From now on, we will work together to strictly abide by the sect rules and repeat the glory of my Dao Sect! "
With a thought, the Dragon Emperor's Golden Book appeared and slowly drifted toward Mi Qingqing.
Mi Qingqing had already been informed by him that she would be the Magic Lotus Sect's Registrar from now on.
At this moment, Mi Qingqing's beautiful face had a faint layer of holy radiance. She held the Dragon Emperor's Golden Book with both hands and slowly walked down the platform.
At this moment, the crowd below suddenly fell silent. Many people frowned and looked at each other in dismay.
Leaving one's name in the golden book was just a euphemism. In reality, it was leaving a soul imprint. In the future, it would be difficult for one to escape from the Sect Leader's control.
Generally speaking, there were some restrictions on the Soul Dao in the golden book. If the person who left the soul imprint betrayed the Sect Leader, it would either harm their Divine Soul or their Martial Heart. Regardless of which, it was an unbearable price for the cultivator.
Among the crowd below, there were some who were extremely loyal to the Magic Lotus Sect and had never thought of betraying, so they did not resist. However, most of them were extremely unwilling.
However, leaving one's soul imprint in the golden book was indeed a rule of the Magic Lotus Sect. They had no reason to refuse.
Of course, if they knew that the golden book in Lin Xuan's hand was not given by the Demon Abyss, but the Dragon Emperor's Golden Book that he obtained himself, everyone would probably unanimously object.
Lin Xuan looked down at the commotion below indifferently from above. The corner of his mouth curled into a faint sneer.
The Demon Abyss did not give him the golden book. It was probably because he wanted to deliberately make things difficult for him. Unfortunately, even the Master of the Demon Abyss did not know that Lin Xuan also had a golden book. Moreover, it was a golden book with the curse of the Dragon God, which would not allow anyone to betray him.
"Wait!"
Suddenly, an old and deep voice resounded in the hall.
Everyone's eyes moved and looked in the direction of the voice. They saw that the one who spoke was an old man with gray hair and beard.
The old man was spirited, and his aura was deep and restrained. He was a God Astral Great Perfection Realm expert.
He took a step forward and looked at Lin Xuan indifferently. He cupped his hands and said, "This subordinate of the Magic Lotus Sect's Jiannan Branch, Master Scarlet Sun, greets the Sect Master!"
Lin Xuan narrowed his eyes slightly and said indifferently, "Master Scarlet Sun, please dispense with the formalities! May I know what Master Scarlet Sun has in mind? "
Master Scarlet Sun was one of the positions in the Magic Lotus Sect.
The Magic Lotus Sect's hierarchy was the Sect Master, Sect Master, Master Scarlet Sun, Branch Master, Banner Master, Team Leader, and Team Leader.
After the calamity more than a decade ago, apart from a few who stayed behind to guard the sect, all of the higher-ups above the Sect Master had gone missing.
This Master Scarlet Sun, who had stayed behind to guard the sect back then, escaped the calamity. He could be considered as the senior with the highest status.
Master Scarlet Sun said in a deep voice, "I dare not accept your advice! However, this subordinate believes that our Magic Lotus Sect has been in decline for a long time. Due to the loss of our heritage, the loyalty of our disciples is not as good as before. If the Sect Master intends to use the golden book to control our disciples, I'm afraid that there will be endless troubles in the future! "
Daoist Crimson Sun's words sounded to be more tactful, but the meaning was actually very clear. You, Lin Xuan, don't have enough strength and influence, yet you intend to control us with just a single golden book. This is simply wishful thinking!
As soon as his words fell, there was a burst of scattered echoes of agreement from the people below.
"That's right! Master Scarlet Sun's words make sense! "
"Especially those who have just entered the Dao not long ago. They are not loyal enough. Once they are asked to leave their soul imprints, I'm afraid that they will rebel!"
"Sect Master, you have to be careful!"
Lin Xuan smiled slightly and said playfully, "Master Scarlet Sun's words may make sense, but I don't agree. There is no such thing as a free lunch in this world. If you want to gain something, you will definitely lose something. Perhaps some disciples are not loyal enough, but those people are not people that our Magic Lotus Sect needs!
The Dao cannot be passed down easily!
If they can't even guarantee their loyalty to our Dao Sect, how can such people be qualified to receive the core heritage of our Magic Lotus Sect?
I firmly believe that there is no need to doubt the loyalty of the Fellow Daoists standing here today!
However, if some people only want to gain and not give, I will not force them. The door of Inquire Heaven Hall is wide open, and he can leave at any time!
Master Scarlet Sun, what do you think? "
Master Scarlet Sun's expression changed slightly when he heard this. He did not expect that the young man, who was only seventeen or eighteen years old, would be so overbearing.
Lin Xuan's words were clear enough. If they did not want to leave their soul imprints in the golden book, it would only mean that they were not loyal enough. Then, they would have to go back to where they came from! You want the Magic Lotus Sect's heritage? Dream on!
