Chapter 26

At the same time,

on the main peak of the Profound Heaven Sect that towered into the clouds.

A figure was looking at the void ahead.

This was a man who looked to be in his middle age, his eyes deep; if one looked carefully, they seemed to contain ten thousand stars!

And he,

was the current Sect Master of the Profound Heaven Sect, Qi Hong!

"Lin Bai..."

He spoke slowly, his eyes flickering with shock that had not yet dissipated!

In the void before him, there was an image!

In it,

it was Lin Bai, who had stepped into the void and returned to the outside of his cave dwelling.

The first time he noticed Lin Bai,

was when he displayed tenfold combat power and swept through more than a dozen blue-robed disciples!

But never did he expect,

just a moment ago,

Qi Hong sensed the aura of the Heavenly Dao, and upon checking, it was radiating from Lin Bai!

"Getting the help of the Heavenly Dao to change his own aptitude..."

"This kid is extraordinary!!"

His gaze flickered, and he couldn't help but praise him!

He had watched the entire process of Lin Bai triggering the strange phenomenon, the purple energy coming from the east, and drawing the Heavenly Dao aura into his body!

Such an astonishing thing,

yet it happened to a disciple who had just entered the inner sect!

After pondering slightly,

Qi Hong stood with his hands behind his back, his eyes full of curiosity!

"This kid has a big secret!"

He muttered, his heart filled with even more shock!

Because until now, he couldn't see through this disciple who only had Foundation Establishment cultivation!

This was what made him feel the most shocked!

However, after thinking about it,

a smile appeared on Qi Hong's face, his eyes full of strong appreciation!

"My Profound Heaven Sect has finally produced a heaven-defying talent that is hard to see in a thousand or even ten thousand years!"

"But whether he can grow up depends on this kid..."

He laughed softly, waved his hand, and the image before him disappeared.

Lin Bai's various performances were all good things for the Profound Heaven Sect!

However, heaven-defying talents could also die young; such things were not rare!

Whether he could grow up,

no one could say for sure!

After calming his emotions,

Qi Hong's eyes gradually became serious, and he sighed.

"The war between the Boundless Sect and the Profound Heaven Sect seems unavoidable..."

His expression gradually turned cold, and killing intent permeated the air!

The Boundless Sect, also a second-rate sect in the Eastern Wasteland, had been at odds with them for over a thousand years!

But recently,

the Boundless Sect had received support from one of the first-rate sects, the Canglan Holy Sect, and their strength had risen!

Precisely because of this,

the Boundless Sect had become more frequent in targeting the Profound Heaven Sect!

Whether in the competition for cultivation resources or the rivalry between disciples, it was far more intense than ever before!

Thinking of this,

Qi Hong's expression became increasingly cold, and he snorted: "The Profound Heaven Sect will not blindly endure. Even if they have the support of a first-rate force, I will never disgrace the past Sect Masters of the Profound Heaven Sect and hand over their hard work!"

"If they want to annex the Profound Heaven Sect, I will use the power of the entire sect to fight to the death!"

By the end, the killing intent in his eyes was even stronger!

However, thinking of Lin Bai's performance earlier,

Qi Hong's expression showed a hint of hesitation, and he muttered: "If this kid grows up, he might be able to change the fate of the Profound Heaven Sect..."

This evaluation was not low at all!

He took a meaningful look at the direction of Lin Bai's cave dwelling, his figure gradually becoming illusory and dissipating into the world!

At the same time,

regarding the discussions in the chat group...

Lin Bai had already seen them after returning to his cave, but he didn't speak.

"Better not say anything, right?"

He blinked, not notifying the group members that he had found the Heavenly Dao and successfully changed his aptitude.

After all, the previous times he reported to them, he was met with their killing-with-kindness!

Someone like him who listens to advice couldn't be truly killed with kindness!

Being low-key was always good,

so as not to scare them again!

And regarding the failure of others to try,

Lin Bai wasn't surprised; these people didn't have a system like him.

"Foundation Establishment Fifth Heaven..."

He was still a bit dissatisfied with his current strength.

Recalling the sect's situation he had learned about earlier, he wished he could grow up faster!

In the grand fantasy world of the Star Profound Realm, the level of terror far exceeded his imagination!

Undercurrents were surging among the major sects and forces, and mutual slaughter was a common occurrence!

No matter which force,

disciples with weaker cultivation bases were always the first to die; this was beyond doubt!

Having a general understanding of this world,

Lin Bai knew he had to face not only external crises but also the competition crisis within the sect!

"Boundless Sect..."

He muttered, his eyes gradually becoming serious!

He had only learned this news a few days ago!

This second-rate sect, which was originally on par with the Profound Heaven Sect, had received support from a first-rate sect not long ago!

And the Boundless Sect,

wanted to annex the Profound Heaven Sect!

To use this to impact the status of a first-rate sect!

Although it was still calm for now, Lin Bai knew that the Profound Heaven Sect, which had no backing, was in a precarious situation!

"It seems I can't be too lazy in terms of cultivation!"

He took a deep breath, a sense of urgency rising in his heart!

Once the war started,

it would surely be a river of blood and the sky would turn dark!

So before that, as a disciple of the Profound Heaven Sect, his cultivation base absolutely couldn't be too weak!

At the very least, he had to have the ability to protect himself!

Even if he couldn't win, he could still run away, right?

But the two sects shouldn't break out into war so quickly,

the sense of crisis in Lin Bai's heart eased a little, and he then flipped through the inner sect disciple handbook.

"Huh!?"

"Every inner sect disciple must go to the Law Enforcement Hall every month to receive assigned tasks and go out to complete them!?"

After learning many rules about the inner sect, he couldn't help but freeze.

He really didn't know about such a requirement before.

Completing one task every month was a hard requirement!
