Chapter 163: Tongtian Jiaozhu's Guidance: The Place of the Sea of Blood

"Master, this~"

Opening his mouth, Duobao was somewhat panicked for a moment.

It was not that he was afraid of being expelled from the sect; after all, as the Senior Brother, he had his own pride and confidence.

Plus, after Tongtian Jiaozhu spoke before, Duobao had also carefully polished his own realm and situation; it was impossible for the problem of magic power exceeding the realm and being unstable to appear.

But the other piece of information contained within this third order was also shocking.

An assessment every ten thousand years.

Being demoted or expelled from the sect if one fails is one thing.

But the possibility of being promoted if one succeeds is not good news.

The current Jie Sect only has four Personal Disciples.

Even if Yunxiao and Lin Fan are excellent, they are still Inner Disciples and cannot threaten their existence.

But if this assessment mechanism continues, then the promotion of Registered Disciples and Outer Sect Disciples is not much.

But what about the promotion of Inner Disciples?

Once people like Yunxiao and Lin Fan are promoted to Personal Disciples, then……

"Inner Disciples will undergo an assessment every five hundred thousand years!"

Glancing at Duobao, Tongtian Jiaozhu knew his inner thoughts and immediately spoke calmly.

Once these words were spoken, the words on Duobao's lips were swallowed back.

An assessment every five hundred thousand years.

This is not too outrageous.

At least he still has five hundred thousand years to prepare.

For a time, Duobao did not speak, and Lin Fan and Wuyunxian also had calm expressions.

After all, Personal Disciples cannot be promoted casually; five hundred thousand years is enough to give them more time to prepare.

Especially Lin Fan.

Although he does not care much about status, Personal Disciples are indeed incomparable to Inner Disciples.

If he were promoted to a Personal Disciple, many things in the future would be much simpler, and the resistance would also be much less.

Therefore, five hundred thousand years is enough for him to rise, become stronger, and even reach the level of being able to sit firmly as a Personal Disciple.

Only Chang'er Dingguangxian had a disappointed expression at this moment, and there was even a trace of resentment in his gaze toward Duobao.

Clearly, he was not very happy, or even very willing, that Duobao's words led to the postponement of the Inner Disciple assessment by five hundred thousand years.

However, Duobao did not notice it.

Wuyunxian was no exception.

It was only Lin Fan who subconsciously glanced and saw it, and Tongtian Jiaozhu on the main seat also saw it.

"Yes, Master!"

At this time, Duobao had already come back to his senses and bowed without hesitation.

"Hmm~"

Seeing this, Tongtian Jiaozhu nodded with satisfaction.

Although Duobao had done many things over the years that made him quite disappointed, at least at the current stage, he was still a qualified Senior Brother.

Thinking of this, Tongtian Jiaozhu waved his hand and said: "Since that is the case, you three go down!"

"Convey my orders as soon as possible!"

"Yes!"

"Yes!"

Agreeing, Duobao, Wuyunxian, and Chang'er Dingguangxian did not dare to be negligent, bowed, and turned to walk toward the outside world.

However, before leaving, they all subconsciously glanced at Lin Fan.

They really wanted to know what Lin Fan was asking for, and even more wanted to know how Tongtian Jiaozhu would solve it.

Unfortunately, Tongtian Jiaozhu clearly did not give them the opportunity, which made them somewhat helpless and disappointed.

After Duobao and the others left, Lin Fan stepped out, ready to state his question.

"Cough, cough, cough~"

However, before Lin Fan could speak, Tongtian Jiaozhu started coughing first.

The next second, Lin Fan's pupils shrank.

He could clearly see a trace of blood overflowing from the corner of Tongtian Jiaozhu's mouth; although it was evaporated by his magic power in the first instance, Lin Fan could be sure he had not seen wrong.

"Vomiting blood?"

"Is this an injury?"

"And it looks more serious than the injury at Pangu Hall; what on earth happened!"

Terrified in his heart, Lin Fan only felt his scalp tingling.

He roughly guessed that it might be because of the revival of the Demon Dao, but he never expected that such a powerful Tongtian Jiaozhu would be so seriously injured; this is simply……

"Speak, what do you want to ask!"

Sensing Lin Fan's reaction, Tongtian Jiaozhu waved his hand and said.

"Yes, Master!"

Subconsciously agreeing, Lin Fan restrained his inner emotions and then said: "Master, my Sword Dao has reached the pinnacle of Small Success, but wanting to improve further to reach Great Accomplishment requires experiencing slaughter and actual combat!"

"But at the current stage, Disciple does not know how to perfect this point; I wonder if Master has a solution!"

Hearing this, Tongtian Jiaozhu's eyes lit up.

Sword Dao Small Success!

He really did not expect Lin Fan's improvement in the Sword Dao to be so fast.

As a master of the Sword Dao.

He knew too well what this meant, and even more clearly that Lin Fan's own potential was even more powerful.

Thinking of this, Tongtian Jiaozhu could not help but ponder.

He was also somewhat conflicted about how to handle this matter.

If it were still a calm Great Desolation, Lin Fan could travel relying on his own reputation and would not encounter any accidents.

But at the current stage, the Demon Dao is reviving, the situation of the Witch and Demon races is stirring, plus there is the existence of the Flood Dragon Clan; it is too dangerous for Lin Fan, who is only at the Taiyi True Immortal cultivation level, to go out.

And he himself is injured and needs to heal; he cannot go out with Lin Fan, which is not good news!

For a time, the entire hall fell into dead silence.

After about a quarter of an hour, Tongtian Jiaozhu seemed to think of something, suddenly raised his head and said: "I have thought of a place that can help you solve your current troubles, and can even greatly improve your actual combat ability and experience, and this place is relatively safe and suitable for your long-term cultivation!"

"However, if you want to go to this place, you need to travel for a period of time, and you might encounter dangerous things on the way; are you willing?"

Hearing this, Lin Fan's eyes lit up.

Danger, he does not care.

Although he is afraid of death, he knows Tongtian Jiaozhu's character even better.

If nothing unexpected happens, he will definitely be given something like a Saint Jade Talisman when he goes out.

On the contrary, he was truly curious about where Tongtian Jiaozhu was talking about, that it could solve his problem while ensuring safety.

"Disciple is willing to try!"

Without hesitation, Lin Fan immediately bowed and said: "I wonder where Master is talking about?"

"The Sea of Blood!"

With a raised corner of his mouth, Tongtian Jiaozhu was very satisfied with Lin Fan's decisiveness and determination; he did not sell the secret anymore and said straight to the point: "It just so happens that you have learned three Sword Daos from Fellow Daoist Minghe, so when you go to the Sea of Blood, you can let him give you some pointers."

"However, the Sea of Blood is a place where the filth of the world gathers; if your will is not firm enough, you will lose your soul, or even lose your mind; you must be prepared!" ===== CHAPTER 164 =====
