Over the past hundred years, the cultivators in Dong Ao had been constantly changing. If the older generation did not improve, they would be replaced by the younger generation. The dividing line between cultivators was the Jin Dan and the Yuanying. Usually, less than ten percent of the cultivators who formed the Jin Dan would be able to break through to the Nascent Soul stage.
Other than the restrictions of cultivation techniques and the Innate Spiritual Roots, there was also the restriction of the Jin Dan's grade. Those who could break through to the Nascent Soul stage were basically high-grade Jin Dans.
Over time, the remaining middle-grade Jin Dan cultivators basically started their own cultivation families in the sect. They hoped that the younger generation of the family would be able to use the family's power to quickly integrate into the cultivation world. At the same time, the family's fortune would also increase.
As for those clans that didn't have any outstanding clansmen, they would slowly disappear from the sect. This was also the law of the cultivation world that eliminated the weak and kept the strong.
The Yin Corpse Sect's Yin Lixing was undoubtedly one of the luckiest of the Golden Core cultivators. When he was almost four hundred years old, he had actually found a Nascent Soul Formation Pill after an expedition. After that, he had spent almost a hundred years to break through his Golden Core and form his Nascent Soul.
With one more Yuanying cultivator in the Yin Corpse Sect, their overall strength was on par with the White Bone Gate. In the past hundred years, the White Bone Gate had been powerless against the rise of the three southern sects.
Although the three southern sects were at a disadvantage in terms of Yuanying cultivators, they were all good at fighting. In the past few decades, the relationship between the White Bone Gate and the Yin Corpse Sect had improved greatly. They were in an alliance, and the two sects had even prepared a marriage alliance to strengthen their cooperation.
Originally, the two sects had agreed that the White Bone Gate's Liu Piaopao would be married to the Yin Corpse Sect's current sect leader, Ke Zhihao. Unfortunately, Ke Zhihao's ambitions did not lie here. He only wanted to break through to the Nascent Soul stage.
After a discussion, the Yin Corpse Sect decided that Yin Lixing's nephew, Yin Que, would be the one to marry the White Bone Gate's young lady. Originally, the Yin Family was filled with talents. However, over a hundred years ago, the elite disciples of the family started to die one after another. Even the most promising disciple, Yin Wuhui, died near the Thousand Needles Forest when he was in the late stage of Foundation Establishment.
Although they were close to Chiyang School, it was not uncommon for Yin Corpse Sect members to sneak into other people's territory to take advantage of them. They would not be able to defend themselves if they were killed instead.
He had originally thought that the Yin Family would have no successor, but who would have thought that Yin Lixing would be so formidable. He had used up all of his family's resources and managed to nurture a nephew from the younger generation within 150 years. However, over a decade ago, his cultivation base had only reached the late-stage of the Foundation Establishment realm.
Now, it would be a joke for a Jin Dan cultivator to marry a Foundation Establishment cultivator. However, with the Yuanying cultivator guarding the place, no one dared to say anything.
Others might not say anything, but as the person involved, Liu Piaopao could not accept it. She had always dreamed of marrying a man of indomitable spirit, or at least a cultivator with a high cultivation base.
She was already a mid-stage Jin Dan cultivator. Furthermore, in Dong Ao, other than Xuan Ling Sect's Nangong Qianyun and Iron Sword Gate's Wu Min, who were on par with her in terms of cultivation base, the rest were all juniors.
Therefore, Liu Piaopao strongly opposed this marriage. However, her father, Liu Yue, had not been able to break through to the late-stage Jin Dan for a long time. After he passed the age of 400, he gradually gave up on the hope of breaking through and focused on managing the sect's affairs. Furthermore, his status in the White Bone Gate was gradually being looked down upon. Therefore, this marriage between the two sects was directly assigned to him.
The Liu Family could be considered as an old nail that had been rooted in the White Bone Gate for over a hundred years. After this marriage, the Liu Family no longer had any outstanding juniors.
The rise of a generation was accompanied by the fall of a generation. Even the veteran Jin Dan cultivator, Liu Yue, could not withstand the ravages of time.
The process of this marriage was well arranged. The Yuanying cultivator of the Yin Corpse Sect, Yin Lixing, personally led the team. He led the acting sect master, Ke Zhihao, and the bridegroom, Yin Que, drove the Corpse School's battleship to pick up the bride.
The distance between the two sects was not close. Even if the Yuanying cultivators drove the flying ship, it would still take them one or two days to reach the destination. Under Yin Lixing's control, the flying ship shot through the air like an arrow. As it flew through the Two Sects Mountain, a sudden gust of wind blew across the sky. The entire flying ship was forced to slow down and slowly descend.
There was a stretch of road between the mountain crevices that was shrouded in white fog. Yin Lixing saw this and had no choice but to shout, "Everyone, prepare to pass through the fog. Sit tight."
The entire journey was not long, but the flying ship was abnormally bumpy as it passed through the fog. There was even one time when a strong gust of wind blew through the flying ship's defensive barrier.
As a result, Yin Lixing had no choice but to maintain a low speed. This journey took the bridegroom a full seven minutes to successfully pass through.
Ke Zhihao found the bridegroom, Yin Que, on the deck. He teased, "Junior Brother Yin, why are you so restless before we even reach the Liu Family? Do you feel uneasy every time you think about the wedding today?"
Yin Que coughed a few times and said, "The acting sect master is right. I'm just excited. Furthermore, to be able to marry a Jin Dan cultivator as my Daoist companion is a blessing that I don't know how many lifetimes I've accumulated."
"Oh, Junior Brother, I didn't expect you to say that. Weren't you just saying that you wanted the Grand Array Master's Principles? Why are you scared now?" Ke Zhihao teased.
Yin Que could only smile and reply, "The acting sect master doesn't know. With my cultivation, she only has eyes for me. If it wasn't for the ancestor, I wouldn't have been able to do anything."
After the two chatted for a while, Yin Lixing's laughter came from the cockpit. "You two can stop chatting. We'll be there in a few hours. Hurry up and tidy up your clothes. Otherwise, people will laugh at my Corpse School. "
When Yin Que heard this, he hurriedly rearranged his wedding attire and used his hand to comb his beard and hair. To be honest, Yin Que could be considered a weirdo of the Yin Family. He was tall and burly. If it wasn't for his achievements in cultivation, Yin Lixing probably wouldn't have chosen him.
Yin Lixing glanced at the simple-looking Yin Que and helplessly shook his head. In the past, Wuji and Wuhui were both stronger than him. It was a pity that all of them had fallen in the hands of that brat Chi Yang. Yin Lixing couldn't help but feel depressed when he thought about this. All the disciples and nephews that he had painstakingly nurtured had all been defeated by that brat. Could it be that this brat Chi Yang was really the nemesis of the Yin Clan?
There had been no news of him for 150 years. Even the spies in Chiyang School had spread the news. This brat seemed to have disappeared from the face of the earth. There had been no news of him for a long time.
In any case, Yin Lixing wasn't afraid. He made up his mind that as soon as that brat appeared, he would immediately kill him to vent the hatred in his heart.
Not long after, the flying ship arrived above the White Bone Gate's Liu Family Manor. At this time, it was very lively below. The Liu Family's Eldest Miss was getting married. Of course, they had to make a big deal out of it. All the reputable cultivators within a radius of a hundred miles were invited to be witnesses. This was also the intention of the Nascent Soul cultivators of the two sects. It would be best if the entire East Ao knew about this matter.
