Champion, Lin Dong of Yan City!
"Now that you know about the Seed Selection Competition, please make sure to get a spot for my Lin Clan to enter the Ancient Dimension and participate in the Hundred Dynasties War."
"Two hundred years ago, one of my clansmen was fortunate enough to join Super Sect. Since then, no one has succeeded. In recent years, we haven't even been qualified to participate in the Hundred Dynasties War. As the Patriarch, I have truly lost face."
Lin Fan said slowly, having composed herself.
"Leave everything to me." Lin Dong nodded gently.
"I hope so."
Lin Fan gave Lin Dong a deep look, then grabbed his arm and announced loudly, "The champion of our clan's Clan Assembly this time is... Lin Dong from Yan City!"
"Boom!"
Thunderous applause erupted from the audience, with hundreds of thousands of people cheering wildly for Lin Dong, their enthusiasm and passion palpable.
Sweeping through all the clans and lineages, and killing two peak Creation Stage Peak experts in succession, Lin Dong is undoubtedly the champion of this Clan Assembly!
"According to custom, the champion of each Clan Assembly Clan Assembly can enter our clan's secret treasure and choose a treasure. You should rest well tonight, and the Great Elder will take you to the Clan Treasury tomorrow."
Amidst the cheers, Lin Fan squinted and spoke.
"Yes, Patriarch."
Lin Dong and Lin Mu readily accepted the order.
At night, in the courtyard of the Lin Clan, which they used to entertain distinguished guests.
"Lin Zhentian, I have come here on behalf of the Patriarch to announce that the Yan City Lin Family has officially returned to the Inner Clan of our clan."
Great Elder Lin Mu solemnly announced.
"Very well, we accept the order!"
With a joyful expression, Lin Zhentian and his sons bowed deeply.
"Lin Zhentian, would you be willing to lead the Yan City branch back to the Ancestral Land to live? The Patriarch leader specifically instructed that if the Yan City branch is willing to return to Lin City, then the clan will set aside a special area for you to settle down."
Lin Mu nodded slightly and asked again.
"This..."
Lin Zhentian was slightly taken aback. He exchanged glances with Lin Xiao and the others, then cupped his hands and said, "Since my Yan City branch has returned to the Inner Clan, it doesn't really matter where we live. We won't move back for the time being."
"Yes, the clan respects your choice."
Lin Mu nodded without any surprise.
"Now that we've finished discussing the important matters, let's talk about something lighter."
Lin Mu, who had been keeping a straight face, immediately relaxed, waved to Lin Dong, and handed him a Silver Jade Slip: "This is my clan's Clan Suppressing Martial Art, the Great Heavenly Phoenix Seal. You haven't had a chance to cultivate it before, so I'm bringing it to you this time."
"The Great Heavenly Phoenix Seal, Clan Suppressing Martial Art? Tsk, actually I've already obtained its cultivation method from Lin Langtian. Of course, there's also the Eight Desolations Emperor Hand, a Creation Stage Martial Arts he obtained from the Creation Martial Tablet."
Lin Dong smiled, but still accepted the silver jade slip.
"..."
Lin Mu's arm twitched, pretending he hadn't heard anything.
"Get some rest. I'll take you to the Clan Treasury tomorrow."
After Lin Dong accepted the Great Heavenly Phoenix Seal, Lin Mu immediately took his leave.
The Lin Clan's secret treasure is located in a magnificent Ancient Pavilion deep within the Clan Territory. Dozens of subtle auras are hidden inside the Ancient Pavilion, indicating that it is heavily guarded.
Since Lin Zhi, the Third Elder who was in charge of the Clan Treasury, had been killed by Lin Dong, the clan replaced him with a new face that Lin Dong had never seen before, so no one dared to secretly trip him up anymore.
"At the deepest part of the fifth level of the Secret Vault lies a powerful treasure called Heavy Prison Peak, Earth-grade Peak Spirit Treasure. It was brought back from the Ancient Secret Realm by one of our ancestors. However, due to its strange material, no one has been able to subdue it for hundreds of years."
"If you are interested in that peak-shaped Spirit Treasure, you might as well give it a try."
At the entrance of the Secret Vault, Lin Mu whispered some instructions to Lin Dong.
"Heavy Prison Peak? Lin Dong understands, thank you."
Lin Dong smiled and then stepped into it.
"Let's go."
Watching Lin Dong's figure disappear into the distance, Lin Mu then turned and left.
The Secret Vault is not only a place to store clan treasures, but it is also a huge array with a very high concentration of Origin Energy. While nurturing the treasures, it can also be used for cultivation.
Therefore, each Clan Assembly champion can not only take away a secret treasure, but also cultivate there for a month to improve their cultivation.
Inside the extremely spacious Ancient Pavilion, there were various Martial Arts Techniques manuals, Spirit Treasure, Talisman Puppet, Pure Yuan Pill, and even tens of thousands of Nirvana Pills. It could be said that every stone platform shone with remarkable spiritual light.
Lin Dong, however, did not linger upon entering the Ancient Pavilion. He went straight to the fifth floor and finally stopped in front of a stone platform at the deepest part of the fifth floor.
The massive stone platform was shrouded in a thick, transparent Light Barrier. Through the energy Light Barrier, four orbs of light could be faintly seen floating in mid-air, representing four Powerful Spirit Treasures.
"Four Earth-grade Spirit Treasure? Not bad."
Lin Dong, standing in front of the stone platform, praised it rather reluctantly.
"Wasn't there supposed to be an Earth-grade Peak Spirit Treasure? Where is it?"
A thin, small figure flew out from its body.
"Look, isn't that it?"
Lin Dong gestured with his lips, and saw a small Black Small Mountain, about the size of a palm, lying quietly in the center of the stone platform, a stark contrast to the four radiant Earth-grade Spirit Treasure in mid-air.
"This dares to call itself Earth-grade Peak Spirit Treasure? The Lin Clan's strongest Spirit Treasure? I'm asking you, is that old man trying to fool you?"
Looking at the unremarkable Black Small Mountain, the Little Marten was deeply suspicious.
"Whether it's bragging or not, just take it out and let's see."
As soon as Lin Dong's large hand, wreathed in dense black light, reached out, the energy Light Barrier surrounding the stone platform instantly contracted as if it had seen a ghost, completely exposing the five Earth-grade Spirit Treasure inside.
Lin Dongdong remained unchanged as he continued to grab at the Black Small Mountain. After pinching it, he suddenly lifted the mountain upwards, but the Black Small Mountain remained motionless as if it weighed ten thousand pounds.
"Heh, interesting."
Lin Dong smiled without any surprise. With a thought, the Ancient Qiankun Formation, which had been hidden deep in his dantian, started operating in the positive direction. Origin Energy and Mental Energy poured into it, and a chaotic energy ball was immediately expelled.
The Yuan Essence Power!
"Buzz!"
The moment the Yuan Essence Power entered his body, the seemingly ordinary Black Small Mountain immediately shone brightly and swelled in the wind. Its palm-sized form instantly grew to nearly a hundred feet in size, filling the entire fifth level.
The black mountain peaks have a deep, dark sheen, as if they weigh tens of thousands or even millions of kilograms. Strange rocks stand on the mountainside, exuding an endless sense of danger and weight, like an ancient Sacred Mountain that can suppress heaven and earth, existing forever.
"Oh, this is interesting. I was wondering why those idiots in the Lin Clan couldn't subdue this Spirit Treasure for hundreds of years. It turns out it can only be activated by the Yuan Essence Power."
The sharp-eyed Little Marten instantly saw through the trickery.
