"This … This … You … You … How did you get this?" Niu Zida pointed at the badge that Ling Dong took out. He was extremely excited after taking a look at it.
Regardless of whether Ling Dong agreed or not, he snatched the medallion from Ling Dong's hand and examined it carefully. Then, a stream of pure water-colored energy was sent into the medallion by Sect Leader Niu. The front side of the medallion had the Yin and Yang of mountains and rivers as the main characters, and the back side of the medallion had the words' True Nature 'written side by side.
On the bottom right corner of the back side of the token, there was a very small word 'Wen'.
Whoosh!
As Niu Zida channeled his True Water Earth Qi into the True Token, a sound similar to the sound of ocean waves gushed out, and a dense blue brilliance gushed out from the token, forming the words' True Aura 'near the token.
Seeing the two words "True Divine" appear on the token, Niu Zida was stunned. Elder He, who was at the side, exclaimed, "Patriarch's keepsake! It's the patriarch's token! "
After saying those words, Elder He looked at Ling Dong and shouted at the void in a crazy tone, "Our sect is lucky! Our sect is lucky! Sect Leader, the patriarch's token has reappeared!"
He was so excited that two streams of tears flowed down his cheeks.
Niu Zida could not suppress his excitement either. His shoulders were trembling slightly but he still tried his best to suppress it.
Holding the patriarch's token with both hands, Ling Dong asked, "Senior Ling, this token is the patriarch's token of our True Aura Sect. Can you tell me where this token came from? Senior, please forgive us for our impulsiveness. This is simply too important to us. "
"Where did it come from? Patriarch's token? You said that this is your patriarch's token? However, this item was bestowed to me by an elder that I respect the most. "Ling Dong's mind spun at lightning speed as he deliberated.
At this moment, Ling Dong had already determined that the True Gang Sect in front of him was definitely the sect's inheritance left behind by Grandmaster Wen Tongguang after he accepted an important task in the Residence of the Celestial Lord of the Wood Puppet World and came to the Long An Territory to work hard as a Heavenly Official.
It could be said that Sect Leader Niu in front of him should be a fellow disciple of the same sect as Ling Dong's ancestor. Regardless of their seniority, Ling Dong was put in a difficult position.
Ling Dong couldn't just say that he came from the True Dipper Sect of Star Lord Suzaku and reveal how the ancestor came to the Long Safe Realm. Forget about whether these people would believe him or not, even if this matter were to spread, it would be very troublesome for Ling Dong.
Human nature was extremely xenophobic.
If Ling Dong said that, then even if Ling Dong was also a member of True Gang Sect, he would still be considered an outsider. Now that there was such a relationship, with Ling Dong's character, he definitely wouldn't leave True Gang Sect alone.
Therefore, after Ling Dong thought about it for a while, he came up with this answer.
"Elder? If I may be so bold, may I ask what is the relationship between this elder and Senior Ling? "Niu Zida asked again. At this moment, Elder He, who had recovered from his ecstasy, also stared at Ling Dong, afraid that he would miss a word.
Ling Dong already somewhat understood what Niu Zida wanted to do, but at this moment, Ling Dong could only go along with the script. Ling Dong originally thought that the ancestor's keepsake he found in True Gang Sect was useless, but now it was of great use.
Of course, Ling Dong didn't expect True Gang Sect to be of much help to him now. As the sect master, Niu Zida was only a Level Two Celestial Monarch. In True Gang Sect in Long An Boundary, there might not even be enough Celestial Monarchs, so the help they could provide to Ling Dong would be very limited.
Now, Ling Dong wanted to help True Gang Sect to a certain extent because of their relationship with True Gang Sect.
To put it bluntly, Ling Dong felt like he was in a foreign country thousands of miles away, and he suddenly met his childhood friend. There was only friendship, nothing else.
"This elder is my … teacher!" Ling Dong didn't care so much now. Based on his deduction, Wen Tongguang had already met with misfortune, so he could only let Niu Zida make up this story. If he had to insist, this could only be considered a white lie.
"Teacher?"
Hearing these words, Elder He was overjoyed again. However, Niu Zida's expression tensed up as he asked, "What proof do you have?"
Ling Dong was slightly displeased. "Do I need to prove this to you? To be honest, if it wasn't for my teacher's instructions before he passed away, I wouldn't have interfered in this matter! "
Seeing Ling Dong's displeased expression, Niu Zida was slightly taken aback. He quickly explained, "Senior Ling, please forgive me. The main thing is that the token in your hand is the long-lost keepsake of our True Gang Sect's ancestor. If what you said is true, then Senior Ling has an extremely high position in True Gang Sect. This is a serious matter, so please forgive me, Senior Ling! "
"Oh?" Ling Dong was surprised. "If that's the case, I'm afraid that I'm really on good terms with True Gang Sect! Before my teacher passed away, he told me that if I meet any disciples of True Gang Sect, I should take care of them appropriately. If I have enough strength, I'll do my best to help them! "
"Oh, so that's the case!" Niu Zida's eyes lit up with excitement. Then, he asked in confusion, "Senior, do you have the True Formula …"
Without waiting for Niu Zida to finish his sentence, Ling Dong activated his divine will. A five-colored radiance appeared on his palm, and five pillars of light rose from his hand.
In the end, Ling Dong took the patriarch's keepsake from Sect Leader Niu's hand and sent the Five Elements True Kang into the patriarch's keepsake. The two words' True Kang 'suddenly appeared in the void again.
The Five Elements True Kang was one of the best cultivation techniques in True Gang Sect. Ling Dong had been taught by Guan Xingzi in the Lower Realm. In the Realm of Wood, he had obtained the complete set of cultivation techniques. It was considered one of the best cultivation techniques in the world. However, since Ling Dong had the inheritance of the Star Demon, the Five Elements True Kang was nothing to him.
Even though he did not cultivate it, he could still gather his Gang Qi to form the Five Elements True Kang according to the cultivation technique.
When Sect Leader Niu Zida saw the words' True Kang 'on Ling Dong's palm, he could no longer hold it in. He pulled Elder He, who was in ecstasy, and pushed the golden mountain and jade pillar down, causing more than ten disciples to kneel down in front of Ling Dong before kowtowing again.
"We, the younger generation of True Gang Sect, pay our respects to the Supreme Elder!"
Under Niu Zida's lead, he did not care if Ling Dong was willing or not. He decided to appoint Ling Dong as the Supreme Elder. The corners of Ling Dong's mouth helplessly twitched a few times. Actually, from the bottom of his heart, he was unwilling to accept the title of Grand Elder.
In terms of benefits, True Gang Sect was a burden to Ling Dong. Ling Dong could annihilate the entire sect by himself without any problems.
However, friendship was priceless.
He could only accept Niu Zida's title. Of course, Ling Dong was well aware of Niu Zida's plan.
Ling Dong was almost certain that even if he did not show off his Five Elements True Kang today, Niu Zida would still appoint him as the Supreme Elder.
Who wouldn't be happy to find a powerful backer for their sect out of thin air?
After a round of modesty, Ling Dong made up a story about how his Master was severely injured and passed away not long after he taught them. Finally, he was able to match up with the mysterious disappearance of True Gang Sect's Grandmaster, Wen Tongguang. Ling Dong then made some calculations about his seniority. Finally, he was able to confirm that he was the Supreme Elder of True Gang Sect.
Surrounded by Niu Zida, Elder He and the rest of the True Gang Sect's disciples, Chen Xiaobei walked towards the True Gang Sect's headquarters.
Especially the disciples who had witnessed Ling Dong's strength. It was as if Ling Dong, the Supreme Elder, was their own Master. All of them were elated and happy.
It was easy to understand. True Gang Sect had been bullied by the Sea King Valley and the surrounding forces for a long time. Now that they had a reliable and powerful elder, it would be strange if they were not happy.
As they flew, Niu Zida personally explained the situation of True Gang Sect to Ling Dong, the new Supreme Elder.
True Gang Sect was located in the Valley of Smoke and Fire. The Valley of Smoke and Fire was actually not considered a valley. It was located in a narrow area between two mountains that were not considered very big.
Due to the many hot springs in this narrow area, it was like spring all year round. It was also foggy all year round. Looking from afar, it looked like a wispy mist.
Especially when the sun set in the afternoon, the red rays of the setting sun penetrated the mist above the narrow area. At a glance, it was like a paradise of fireworks, hence the name Valley of Smoke and Fire.
Although the Valley of Smoke and Fire was long and narrow, it accommodated many sects. Among them, the Sea King Valley was the most powerful existence.
The True Water Art passed down by True Gang Sect was quite special. It also had a secret technique that allowed one to dive into the depths of the ocean like a natural sieve to pick up seafood. Other sects could barely dive, but they could not reach the depths.
It was with this ability that True Gang Sect was able to survive in the Valley of Smoke and Fire.
It was also with this ability that True Gang Sect's annual income was extremely high. There were all kinds of rare treasures in the ocean. Although it was only a corner of the trench, the harvest was still bountiful.
Unfortunately, more than half of this income was forcefully bought by the Sea King Valley. Occasionally, some precious treasures were also squeezed out by the Sea King Valley.
The Sea King Valley was like a dairy cow. They treated the True Gang Sect like a dairy cow. After a few days of squeezing, they would be able to harvest some seafood.
Moreover, they knew how to control this. They were like greedy blood-sucking leeches. From time to time, they would suck the blood of the True Gang Sect, but they would not suck them to death.
That was why Ling Dong saw the scene that day. Along the way, Sect Leader Niu kept talking about the oppression that True Gang Sect had suffered over the years.
"We're here. Our True Gang Sect is right in front of us!" Sect Leader Niu pointed at a large building that was shrouded in mist. "It is said that the buildings in the sect were all designed and built by our ancestors. Even if they were renovated in later years, they did not dare to change their appearance!"
Ling Dong, on the other hand, was stunned when he saw the buildings that were shrouded in mist. The bamboo building in the middle looked extremely familiar. It was as if Ling Dong had returned to his hometown, the True Kang Sect!
