Chapter 51

Lin Xuan did not know that his unintentional actions had left an indelible impression on a powerful being.

However, this was just a small interlude.

From Leng Fengyue’s description, Lin Xuan began to understand the vastness of the world he was currently in.

The Dayan Dynasty was nothing significant.

Even at the level of divine powers, it still seemed so small!

Leng Fengyue looked at the young man in front of her. Although the youth’s face still bore traces of youthfulness, she sensed an unmatched confidence emanating from him!

Lin Xuan’s gaze turned toward a jade slip nearby; he didn’t move to pick it up but pointed at it, asking Leng Fengyue, “Elder, do you know the origin of this jade slip?”

Lin Xuan had a premonition that this jade slip concealed some enormous secret. Although Yanran tried her best to appear calm, everything pointed back to this jade slip.

Following Lin Xuan’s gaze, Leng Fengyue looked at the jade slip, her eyes revealing a hint of astonishment. She murmured, “I didn’t expect this girl would actually leave this technique for you; it’s a good thing you didn’t touch it.”

After saying this, she felt a sense of relief within herself.

Looking at Lin Xuan, Leng Fengyue slowly spoke, “This jade slip contains a technique, a holy-level high-quality technique left behind by an ancient existence from the legendary Shangqing Immortal Sect.”

“It is called the ‘Zhanqing Wuwu True Formula,’ but the girl left you only a portion of it. If you cultivate it, you might forget those you once loved in your heart, but this emotional burden will transform into the power for your cultivation, allowing your progress to soar. Even if it’s just half a portion, it can reach the level of a holy-level mid-quality technique.”

“This is the choice she has given you. Holy-level techniques are far superior to heavenly-level techniques; whether to cultivate or not is entirely up to you.”

“If you choose to cultivate, you won’t have to bear any responsibility, and the Shangqing Immortal Sect will not trouble Yanran.”

“If you don’t cultivate, the road ahead will be difficult, and you will have to face one of the five great sects, the Shangqing Immortal Sect.”

After speaking, Leng Fengyue looked at Lin Xuan, eager to see how this young man would choose when faced with a holy-level mid-quality technique. Would he choose to confront the Shangqing Immortal Sect for Lin Yanran, or would he opt out and embrace the holy-level mid-quality technique?

Upon hearing Leng Fengyue’s description, Lin Xuan’s expression remained calm as he slowly approached the jade slip.

“Just as I thought…”

Leng Fengyue watched Lin Xuan approach the jade slip, disappointment filling her eyes. In the face of a holy-level mid-quality technique… no one could resist such temptation.

But soon, her disappointment transformed into profound shock.

The young man before her began to circulate his inner energy, forming a long sword of pure energy in his hand, and swung it toward the direction of the jade slip.

Crack!

The jade slip shattered with a sound, dissipating into the void.

………

Eastern Region

Shangqing Immortal Sect

As one of the five major sects, the Shangqing Immortal Sect spanned vast territories, resembling a fairyland with mountains shrouded in mist, ethereal peaks floating in the air, and rich primal energy condensing into fog. Divine lights soared into the sky, and auspicious clouds ascended, exuding an extraordinarily terrifying aura, as if chaos was unfolding, stars were shattering, and an overwhelming pressure was emanating, warping space itself, creating countless phenomena, achieving infinity.

At the center of the Shangqing Immortal Sect stood a towering mountain peak, resembling a sharp giant sword that split the heavens from the earth, severing the ancient ages!

Within a palace on the mountain, there was an exceptionally beautiful woman in a flowing blue dress, her flawless face and ethereal temperament devoid of any smile, akin to the eternal ice atop a mountain.

She stood barefoot, like snow, within the grand hall, absorbing the primal energy surrounding her. On her forehead, an ancient and mysterious rune flickered into view, just a corner of it radiated an indescribably noble aura. The universe and the world manifested at this moment, resembling an ancient deity about to awaken.

Suddenly, the stunning woman slowly opened her eyes, gazing at the purple necklace adorning her white wrist.

“Lin Xuan… brother, Yanran will wait for you; I will definitely wait for you to come!”

A smile that could captivate all appeared on her cool face, her sparkling eyes becoming a bit moist at this moment, evoking pity.

………

“This boy…”

A hint of a smile crept across Leng Fengyue’s lips, the spring breeze evident beneath her veil.

“Yanran… your choice was not wrong.”

Leng Fengyue whispered to herself.

The holy-level mid-quality technique… even in the midst of powerful figures in the Central Region, could stir up countless storms and bloodshed, yet the young man before her was able to remain unfazed and directly give it up.

After all… someone who could boldly declare that they would dominate the myriad realms and challenge the heavens could not be an ordinary genius!

Suddenly, Leng Fengyue felt a surge of anticipation, eager to see what kind of legend this young man would write, and whether he could truly break the immutable fate of the Shangqing Immortal Sect.

Lin Xuan looked at the holy-level mid-quality technique dissipating before him, his heart not stirred in the slightest. His path did not require sacrifice; it would only move forward resolutely. If there were obstacles, he would sever them with a sword!

He did not believe that he, equipped with a system, would be weaker than anyone!

Leng Fengyue glanced at Lin Xuan with satisfaction and spoke gently, “With your cultivation speed, it won’t be long before you break through to the divine powers realm. Upon reaching that level, you will manifest your innate divine power. The strength of your innate divine power is related to your innate object. In the Southern Region, there are not many top-tier innate objects. I have here a divine power sword embryo I once obtained.”

Waving her delicate hand, a sword embryo radiating golden light floated in the air, resonating with sword cries and exuding a fierce sword intent, with brilliant auspicious light swirling around, the rhythm of the laws of the Dao alternating, indicating that it was no ordinary item.

“This divine power sword embryo ranks eighth among the top ten innate objects and was something I obtained in my youth. Unfortunately, at that time, I had already transcended the divine powers realm, so I will gift it to you now.”

“If you leave the Dayan Dynasty, you could join the Pill Hall or the Xuantian Sacred Land. The foundation accumulated by those top-tier forces far exceeds your imagination.”

After giving Lin Xuan the innate sword embryo, Leng Fengyue tore through space with one hand. Facing away from Lin Xuan, she said softly, “Lin Xuan, I hope you won’t forget that in the Shangqing Immortal Sect, there is someone waiting for you.”

With that, she stepped into the void and vanished from sight.

Lin Xuan looked in the direction where Leng Fengyue had left, bowed in gratitude, “Thank you, Elder.”

Once there was no more movement in the area, Lin Xuan finally put away the innate sword embryo and gazed into the distance, his eyes sparkling with brilliance.
