Golden Ao Island.
Although the Interception Sect disciples were all extremely puzzled by Senior Disciple Brother Lin Xuan's actions,
the prestige Lin Xuan had accumulated as the Interception Sect's Senior Disciple Brother, together with Sect Master Tongtian's message, made them instinctively follow his orders.
They returned to their respective abodes in twos and threes, preparing to enter secluded cultivation.
Seeing his junior brothers and sisters disperse, Lin Xuan also returned to the cave abode that Sect Master Tongtian had specially opened for him.
However, before entering seclusion, Lin Xuan split off a wisp of divine sense to keep an eye on one of the Seven Attendants of his cheap master, Chang'er Dingguang Immortal.
At that moment, after returning to his own cave abode, Chang'er Dingguang Immortal directly smashed the Pure Light Glazed Jade Stone Table inside with one palm.
Why!
He had served Tongtian painstakingly, attending to his every need, for so many years.
Even if he had no achievements, he had at least suffered through the hard work!
Yet Tongtian had directly handed over the Four Swords of Zhu Xian, the Zhu Xian Formation Diagram, and the responsibility of Sect Master to Senior Disciple Brother Lin Xuan, who had been in seclusion for a million years and had only just emerged!
How could Tongtian be so biased!
At this thought, Chang'er Dingguang Immortal subconsciously summoned a golden lotus.
Looking at the golden lotus that Saint Zhunti had secretly given him, Chang'er Dingguang Immortal's gaze flickered uncertainly.
But in the end, he still did not dare make a move.
Lin Xuan withdrew the divine sense watching him, and a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes.
Hmph.
He abandoned righteousness for petty gains and cherished his life when undertaking great matters. He was nothing but a mediocre petty man. Even the innocent and carefree Qiongxiao had more decisiveness than him.
Lin Xuan naturally knew Chang'er Dingguang Immortal very well.
According to the original course of history, it was this petty man who failed to activate the Six Souls Banner.
He even handed the Six Souls Banner over to the Four Saints, cutting off Sect Master Tongtian's last chance to turn things around.
He had completely failed the trust Sect Master Tongtian had placed in him.
Thinking of this, Lin Xuan could not help laughing dryly. His cheap master had truly misjudged such a person. Sigh...
After that, he stopped paying attention to Chang'er Dingguang Immortal and prepared to officially enter seclusion.
However, before entering seclusion, Lin Xuan took out a Purple Skin Spirit Treasure Gourd.
Inside were the Nine Revolutions Golden Elixirs Lin Xuan had looted.
He tilted the gourd, and a purple-gold pill, covered all over with nine mysterious pill patterns and emitting a hazy mist, appeared in his hand.
Lin Xuan inhaled a breath of the pill aura drifting from it and immediately felt his cultivation increase by an imperceptible amount.
The Nine Revolutions Golden Elixir truly lived up to its reputation as Grand Supreme Elder Laozi's signature elixir. It was said that a single one could allow an ordinary mortal with a mortal body to immediately become a Grand Unity Golden Immortal.
Although such a Grand Unity Golden Immortal would be the weakest and most watered-down kind, it was still enough to demonstrate from the side just how powerful the Nine Revolutions Golden Elixir's medicinal effects were.
With Lin Xuan's deep foundation, he could now consume this kind of elixir to increase his mana.
Moreover, this was an elixir produced by Laojun. There would be no residual pill poison at all.
Once he had the thought, he acted.
Lin Xuan immediately swallowed the Nine Revolutions Golden Elixir in his hand.
Perhaps because it had been stolen, Lin Xuan felt especially exhilarated as he ate the elixir.
Unfortunately, he had eaten it too quickly and had not even tasted what it was like.
Afterward, Lin Xuan began refining the medicinal power within his body.
A moment later, Lin Xuan opened his eyes in pleasant surprise.
The Nine Revolutions Golden Elixir was actually effective even for him, who had the cultivation of a quasi-saint.
A single elixir had increased his power by nearly ten percent.
Moreover, the Chaos Demon God true body he had achieved was completely capable of withstanding the impact of the medicinal power.
Immediately, Lin Xuan picked up the Purple Skin Spirit Treasure Gourd and poured it toward his mouth.
Like eating candy beans, he swallowed all eleven remaining Nine Revolutions Golden Elixirs.
If Grand Supreme Elder Laozi had witnessed this scene, he would definitely have been heartbroken to the point of agony.
The Nine Revolutions Golden Elixirs he had painstakingly refined with various Innate Spiritual Roots had actually been squandered so recklessly by Lin Xuan!
After consuming the eleven Nine Revolutions Golden Elixirs, Lin Xuan began secluded cultivation.
At the same time, he began comprehending the insights into the Great Dao that Sect Master Tongtian had left for him.
Before he knew it,
a year had passed.
"Ding. The host has successfully led all Interception Sect disciples into one year of secluded cultivation and has obtained a special gift pack. Would you like to claim it?"
This sudden system notification awakened Lin Xuan, who had entered a state of deep secluded cultivation.
He slowly opened his eyes.
At the instant Lin Xuan opened his eyes, an incomparably profound Dao resonance radiated from his body and filled the entire cave abode.
"Only one year has passed?"
Lin Xuan sensed the cultivation within his body.
He discovered that
after consuming twelve Nine Revolutions Golden Elixirs and comprehending the insights into the Great Dao that Sect Master Tongtian had left him,
his current cultivation in the Dao had already broken through to the peak quasi-saint realm.
In the Primordial World, aside from the seven Saints standing at the pinnacle of the pyramid, he was an existence at the absolute peak!
But to Lin Xuan,
peak quasi-saint cultivation was still far from enough!
Because his enemies were the Saints standing at the pinnacle of the pyramid.
And there were four of them!
Aside from those four Saints, there was also the unfathomable Old Daoist Hongjun waiting for Lin Xuan.
Lin Xuan believed that
if he preserved all the disciples of the Interception Sect and disrupted the entire Great Tribulation of Investiture of the Gods,
then the already Merged with Dao Old Daoist Hongjun would definitely personally enter the fray.
So his current cultivation was still not enough!
If an ordinary Primordial World lifeform faced such a desperate situation, they would surely be thinking about how to surrender.
They would run to cling to the legs of Yuanshi, Hongjun, and the others.
But he was different.
He was a transmigrator with a system!
At that moment, Lin Xuan turned his gaze toward the gift pack rewarded by the system.
He silently recited a word in his heart.
"Claim!"
