After hovering in the air for a few breaths, Ling Dong accepted the greetings of the disciples in silver, gold, and red. Then, he walked to Hei Tian and the others and greeted them, "Sect Leader, Martial Uncle, I'm back!"
As for Song Jianxin, Ling Dong did not even look at him. He knew how pathetic he was.
Even Kong Da, who was at the later stage of the Kui Star Realm, had a hard time dealing with Ling Dong's Innate Spiritual Fire, let alone Song Jianxin, who was at the pinnacle of the Star Transformation Realm. Even so, this was the result of Ling Dong holding back. If Ling Dong wanted to, even if Song Jianxin had used a Substitute Talisman, Ling Dong could have burned Song Jianxin to ashes!
It could be said that with the Natural Spirit Fire in hand, Ling Dong was already invincible in the Star Transformation Realm!
"Ling Dong, your cultivation has improved tremendously in the past two years. You've even cultivated the Innate Spiritual Fire. Did something happen?" Sect Leader Shi asked.
"Yes, Sect Leader! I entered the inner region of the Star Devil Ruins with Senior Shang Luoxu to search for treasures. Unfortunately, Senior Shang Luoxu died! "Ling Dong reported Shang Luoxu's death in a timely manner.
"Yes, the sect has long known about Shang Luoxu's death. We just don't know the cause of his death!" Sect Leader Shi sighed again.
Ling Dong didn't find it strange at all. If a True Gang Sect disciple went out on an adventure, he would have to leave a Life Talisman at the Life Talisman Hall. The Life Talisman Hall would be patrolled by disciples on duty every day.
Looking at Ling Dong's calm expression, Sect Leader Shi laughed and said, "Dong-er, what's wrong? Don't you think this elite disciple in red is good enough?" Without waiting for Ling Dong to express anything, Sect Leader Shi continued, "Hehe, the benefits are great. Not to mention other things, just the chance to comprehend the Heavenly Star Hall in the Constellation Heaven Monarch's Abode is enough to make even your master jealous!"
"Minor Heaven Star Hall in the Mansion of the Celestial Lord of Heaven? What is this? "Ling Dong couldn't help but wonder. This was the first time he had heard of this!
Seeing that Ling Dong was interested, Sect Leader Shi stopped talking. When Ling Dong looked at Hei Tian for help, Hei Tian said softly, "Dong-er, the Minor Heavenly Star Hall in the Constellation Heaven Monarch's Residence is one of the opportunities that I mentioned to you before. As for the specifics, I will tell you another day. The Sect Leader still has matters to attend to! "
"Oh, Martial Uncle Hei Tian, I'm afraid you are in a hurry to get the Battle Talisman of Vermilion Bird. Don't worry, I will give it to you now!" As he spoke, five black sword-shaped tokens appeared in his hand.
"Yes, according to the rules, Dong-er wins and receives a Battle Talisman of the Vermilion Bird Elite Battle!"
The moment he handed the ordinary-looking Battle Talisman of Vermilion Bird to Ling Dong, Sect Leader Shi emphasized, "Dong-er, if you don't need to, you are not allowed to go out for the next few days. In three months, you will need to bring this Battle Talisman of Vermilion Bird to report to the Constellation Heaven Monarch's Residence. At that time, you will receive your achievements and rewards from the Battle Talisman of Vermilion Bird Elite Battle!"
Ling Dong realized that when he received the Battle Talisman of Vermilion Bird, his usually calm master, Hei Tian, was looking at the Battle Talisman of Vermilion Bird with a burning gaze.
Ling Dong received the Battle Talisman of Vermilion Bird. When he looked at the ordinary-looking Battle Talisman of Vermilion Bird, a bloody murderous aura rushed toward Ling Dong's head. Vaguely, Ling Dong felt as if his soul was being stirred.
"So the Battle Talisman mentioned by the Constellation Heaven Monarch was referring to this Battle Talisman of Vermilion Bird." This Battle Talisman of Vermilion Bird reminded Ling Dong of the order he received from the Constellation Heaven Monarch. At the same time, it reminded Ling Dong of the good plan he made a long time ago when he first learned about the Battle Talisman of Vermilion Bird!
After pondering for a bit, Ling Dong clasped his hands at Sect Leader Shi and said, "Disciple thanks Sect Leader, but disciple doesn't need this Battle Talisman of Vermilion Bird anymore. Disciple was only fighting for Master and myself!"
After saying that, Ling Dong didn't care about everyone's stunned expressions. He waved his hand and threw the Battle Talisman of Vermilion Bird to Song Jianxin, who was still sitting on the ground, and said, "Give this Battle Talisman of Vermilion Bird to Master … and Junior Brother Ren to use!"
The crisp sound of the Battle Talisman of Vermilion Bird falling to the ground was pleasant to the ears of others, but to Song Jianxin and Ren Henshui, it was extremely ear-piercing and sarcastic. Their faces turned even paler!
However, among these people, the one who felt the most uncomfortable was Song Jianxin's teacher, Great Elder Qing Jiu. His old face suddenly turned green and white.
Qing Jiu thought about how he was jumping around and how he looked down on Ling Dong. Then he thought about his current situation. The more he thought about it, the more he felt like he was a clown. It was simply too embarrassing.
Now that he was being humiliated like this in public, Qing Jiu felt the blood in his chest surge. His chest began to rise and fall rapidly.
Suddenly, Qing Jiu's face turned pale. His cheeks suddenly swelled, and his Adam's apple kept moving. He was trying his best to hold back the blood in his mouth so that he wouldn't make a fool of himself on the spot.
Seeing that he couldn't hold back the blood, Qing Jiu suddenly soared into the sky. Without saying anything, he flew away. The moment he turned around the waist of the mountain, black blood spurted out!
Seeing Qing Jiu fly away in anger, Hei Tian couldn't help but frown and said, "Dong-er, you went too far just now. You've already won this battle and won the position of one of the nine red-clothed elite disciples. Why did you humiliate your Martial Uncle Qing Jiu and his two disciples? "
Hearing this, Sect Leader Shi and Huo Lin suddenly realized that Ling Dong threw the Battle Talisman of Vermilion Bird to humiliate Qing Jiu and his two disciples.
Ling Dong was greatly astounded when he heard this, and he laughed bitterly without end. He pointed at his own nose and said in astonishment, "Master, am I so unbearable? Sigh, I really, really don't need this Battle Talisman of Vermilion Bird! "
"Dong-er, are you sure you're not joking? Don't you know that this Vermilion Bird Elite Competition is a great opportunity?! Not to mention anything else, as long as you pass the first round, one of the rewards is something that even Star Realm or Constellation Realm cultivators would covet! "Hei Tian and Sect Leader Shi's expressions immediately changed.
"Master, I'm not joking. I really don't need this Battle Talisman of Vermilion Bird. However, it's not that I don't want to go, it's just that I already have one!" Ling Dong firmly said.
According to the information Ling Dong obtained about the Vermilion Bird Elite Competition, once a participant passed the Vermilion Bird Elite Competition, both the participant and the sect they recommended would receive a large amount of rewards. Moreover, the sect they recommended seemed to receive more rewards.
In this kind of situation, Ling Dong would rather use his identity as a Star Official to recommend himself to participate in the Vermilion Bird Elite Competition and take all the rewards for himself. This would help him quickly increase his cultivation.
Ling Dong finally understood that no matter where one went, as long as one had enough cultivation resources, one's cultivation speed would be fast. Otherwise, it would be extremely slow. Obtaining a large amount of cultivation resources was the way to go.
"You already have one Battle Talisman of Vermilion Bird. Where did you get it?" Sect Leader Shi asked.
Facing Sect Leader Shi's questioning, Ling Dong only said, "I obtained it by chance. That senior said that he would give me all the rewards from the Vermilion Bird Elite Competition. He didn't want a single one, so disciple reluctantly agreed!"
"Hiss … Both rewards were given to you?" Sect Leader Shi sucked in a breath of cold air after hearing this. Hei Tian and Huo Lin were also shocked. This old senior was quite generous. However, they didn't know that the old senior Ling Dong was talking about was Ling Dong himself.
After receiving Ling Dong's confirmation, Sect Leader Shi began to ponder silently. He paced back and forth as if he was making an extremely important decision!
As for Hei Tian and Huo Lin, they looked at Ling Dong with complicated expressions. They also understood what Ling Dong meant. They also understood that no matter who it was, they would make the same choice as Ling Dong!
When they saw this scene, the numerous disciples and elders, who were still secretly criticizing Ling Dong for being too arrogant and overbearing, were once again speechless when they heard these words.
Every time they thought their senior apprentice brother was being arrogant, it was actually him expressing his stance. However, they couldn't be blamed for this.
It wasn't that they were too ignorant. They could only blame Ling Dong for being too awesome. He was so awesome that even when Ling Dong casually spoke the truth, they would think that he was being extremely arrogant …
"Dong-er, I hope that you can give up on the old senior's Vermillion Bird Battle Talisman and use our Vermillion Bird Battle Talisman to represent True Gang Sect. Also, the sect won't take a single cent of the rewards you get from advancing in the Elite Tournament. They'll all belong to you! I only hope that you can represent True Gang Sect! "
When Sect Leader Shi said this, he was extremely depressed. If he had known that Ling Dong had such a fortuitous encounter and was so powerful, he would have given Hei Tian a long time ago. He would have left behind a Vermillion Bird Battle Talisman for Erebus and Ling Dong as a favor, and there was no need for him to go through a great battle. If that was the case, even if Ling Dong wanted to reject it, Hei Tian would have allowed it. He wouldn't have had to make such a shocking decision!
"Ah … How can I do that?" Ling Dong looked at his master, Hei Tian, in confusion.
"Why not? As long as you advance in the Elite Tournament multiple times and make a name for True Gang Sect, you can ask for any requests. As long as you agree, you can even make some reasonable requests to the sect! "After saying this, Sect Leader Shi looked at Ling Dong eagerly.
"This …"
While Ling Dong was hesitating, Hei Tian nodded at Ling Dong. After a short while, Ling Dong nodded at Sect Leader Shi and said, "Alright, then I'll quickly return the Vermillion Bird Battle Talisman to that old senior and represent True Gang Sect in the Elite Tournament!" While saying this, Ling Dong began to think about how to deal with the extra Vermillion Bird Battle Talisman so that he could get the most out of it!
Seeing that Ling Dong had agreed, Sect Leader Shi was naturally overjoyed. He gave Ling Dong some long-winded advice, and only left after a long time.
Just as they were dispersing, Ling Dong suddenly recalled Bu Yangming's matter and asked Sect Master Shi, "That's right, Sect Master, did that Junior Brother Bu Yangming whom you sent to the Heavenly Dipper Continent ten years ago undergo tribulation and ascend to the Heavenly Dipper Continent?"
"Oh, you mean Yangming?" Sect Leader Shi obviously knew Yangming. "He passed the Heavenly Tribulation and became a Celestial Immortal three months ago."
Upon hearing this, Ling Dong was overjoyed. He quickly asked, "He's here? Where is he? Why haven't I seen him today?"
Upon hearing Ling Dong's question, Sect Leader Shi and Hei Tian's faces darkened at the same time!
