Chapter 315

Hu Tao was silent for a moment, glared at Zhongli fiercely, looked at Jiang Yan and said:

"Sect Master, if... if my cultivation exceeds a certain Peak Master, can I replace him?"

Instantly, Ningguang and the others looked at Hu Tao in astonishment.

This kind of rebellious speech had never been seen in Shushan.

Hu Tao was truly brave and peerless.

Perhaps Hu Tao was just thinking about Zhongli deceiving her and not calling her when there was a good thing.

But this kind of speech was also a bit of a mistake.

If your cultivation exceeds the Peak Master, you want to replace the Peak Master?

Then if your cultivation exceeds the Sect Master, do you want to be the Sect Master?

Instantly, Xiao's face turned cold.

"Shushan precepts, those who do not respect their teachers, beheaded!"

The momentum of the peak of Refining Essence into Qi whistled out, avoiding Jiang Yan and the others, and rushed straight at Hu Tao.

Along with it, Furina and the others beside Hu Tao also suffered.

That was the peak of Refining Essence into Qi, an existence only one step away from ascending to Refining Qi into Spirit.

In terms of the absolute dominance of the difference in cultivation realms, Xiao was at least two realms higher than them.

Just by releasing his momentum, he didn't even use his full strength.

It made everyone feel as if they were in purgatory, as if they could die on the spot at any time.

Even the battle maniac Tartaglia, feeling this momentum, shrank his head.

It was a completely impossible opponent to deal with.

Let alone the winning rate, once the other party released their momentum, he couldn't even move, he could only stand and wait for death.

The difference in the realms of cultivators was truly terrifying.

But this also made Tartaglia's desire to move upward even stronger.

Besides fighting, there were other things to do.

For example, cultivation and breakthrough!

"Alright, Xiao."

Just as Hu Tao regretted being a bit impulsive, Zhongli smiled bitterly, waved his hand, and let Xiao withdraw his momentum.

Turning his head, he cupped his hands helplessly at Jiang Yan:

"Sorry Sect Master, Hu Tao was just speaking impulsively; this matter was indeed a bit biased on my part."

Hu Tao breathed a sigh of relief, but still turned her head away and didn't look at Zhongli.

Jiang Yan waved his hand with a smile.

"It's okay, it's not a big deal; a little girl naturally has some emotions."

"But Hu Tao's words also make sense."

Pausing, Jiang Yan looked at the others and said softly:

"Shushan has always followed the principle of the capable rising; if someone reaches the late stage of Refining Qi into Spirit, they can indeed serve as a Peak Master or Inner Elder."

"If your cultivation exceeds mine, it wouldn't be impossible for you to sit in the position of Sect Master."

195. Furina's spiritual grid is incomplete, destined to be unable to become an immortal?

Hearing this, everyone shook their heads repeatedly.

Exceeding Jiang Yan's cultivation and becoming Sect Master?

Who would dare to take these words?

Shushan was created by Jiang Yan; Jiang Yan said this to encourage everyone and give them something to look forward to.

If someone really didn't know better and accepted it.

Maybe they would be slapped to death by Jiang Yan.

Even if Jiang Yan didn't express his stance, the people in the Law Enforcement Hall would keep an eye on them.

What's more, Jiang Yan's cultivation talent was unprecedented.

At a young age, he was about to reach Refining Void and Combining Dao; who could cultivate faster than him?

However, the position of Peak Master was something one could think about.

Reaching the late stage of Refining Qi into Spirit could make one an acting Peak Master.

Strictly speaking, it wasn't much of a difference; if you worked hard, you still had a chance to reach it.

Peak Master...

As Shushan's revival speed accelerated, the status of Peak Master would also rise with the tide.

When Shushan shakes the myriad worlds in the future, the status of a Shushan Peak Master would be enough to deter the world.

This was a symbol of status, honor, and strength.

In short, it did give everyone motivation.

Jiang Yan just mentioned it casually; seeing that everyone had no intention of discussing this topic, he stopped there.

Looking at Ningguang and the others, he said:

"The Opening Ceremony is over; take them to receive the dharma robes and disciple tokens of each peak."

"By the way, on the way, you can introduce the situation of Shushan to everyone; as inner disciples, you should know a little more than outer disciples."

"After that, let them go to the Scripture Pavilion to choose techniques and choose a cave dwelling in the seven peaks."

"Tomorrow morning, all inner disciples come to Tongtian Peak to practice with me."

"In addition, after Yunqing and Yunhua settle the outer disciples and handymen, let them come to see me."

After speaking, Jiang Yan thought for a while, confirmed that he hadn't missed anything, and said no more.

He waved his hand and said:

"Go, Furina stay."

Hearing this, everyone was stunned for a moment, especially Furina and Clorinde, whose moods, which had finally calmed down, became uneasy again.

But looking at Jiang Yan's attitude, it didn't seem to be a bad thing; of course, the thoughts of a powerhouse at the Refining Spirit and Returning to Void stage were not something they could guess.

Furina steadied her mind and nodded in agreement.

Clorinde was a bit worried about Furina, but Jiang Yan didn't let her stay, so Clorinde naturally didn't dare to linger.

She could only look back at Furina every few steps.

I don't know why, but at this moment, she suddenly felt that Furina's back was a bit lonely.

After everyone left, the gate of the sect's main hall slammed shut.

The calmness Furina had disguised also vanished.

She looked at Jiang Yan cautiously.

The latter slowly opened his eyes and said with a smile:

"No need to be so afraid; I shouldn't be that scary, right?"

Seeing Jiang Yan still talking and laughing, Furina breathed a sigh of relief and asked curiously:

"Is there something the Sect Master wants to see me about alone?"

Jiang Yan didn't answer, just stared at Furina quietly. After a long while, Jiang Yan said slowly:

"Nine-Fold Heart Inquiry, the talent of a Heavenly Spiritual Root; with such aptitude, even if it can't compare to a divine body, the future will not be weak."

Jiang Yan stood up, and as he spoke slowly, he walked step by step to Furina.

Furina was a bit confused by Jiang Yan's sudden praise, but she couldn't help but feel a little proud.

"But..."

Suddenly, Jiang Yan's tone changed, and Furina froze, looking at Jiang Yan with some worry.

"Your spiritual grid is incomplete, and you are missing a very important part."

"It won't affect you now, but it doesn't mean that in the future..."

Jiang Yan passed Furina, with his back to her, looking at the floating clouds outside the window.

"Do you remember what I said to Chongyun?"

Furina was silent for a moment and nodded slightly.

"Extreme Yang becomes Yin, extreme Yin becomes Yang; Yin and Yang complement each other, and the immortal path can be expected."

Jiang Yan nodded with satisfaction and said again:
