"Buzz~!!"
Just as Sect Leader Tongtian and Xuanming were making small talk, the already terrifying pressure intensified after a soft hum.
"Thump~!"
"Thump~!"
As the pressure strengthened, the members of the Jiejiao Sect, who were allies and initially unaffected, could no longer hold on and knelt on the ground.
"This girl..."
Sect Leader Tongtian chuckled and shook his head upon seeing this. He raised his hand and set up a barrier in front of everyone, allowing them to finally breathe a sigh of relief.
"Master, are you alright?"
Duobao and the others, who had seen Sect Leader Tongtian long ago but had no reason to approach him, quickly gathered around him, inquiring about the situation.
Aside from Qiong Xiao and Bi Xiao, who were present at the time, they had no idea that Xuanming had given Yunxiao the Primordial Violet Qi.
Therefore, Upon discovering that Yunxiao had made a grand vow to rebuild the Jiejiao Sect, which actually drew the world's luck into her body and caused golden light of merit to surge forth like it was free, it would be a lie to say they weren't envious.
However, they hadn't considered the possibility of Yunxiao becoming a Saint.
Hong Jun's propaganda had been quite effective.
Whether in the main interface or this Journey to the West interface, anyone who could cultivate to the Grand Unity or Quasi-Saint level knew about the Primordial Violet Qi.
So, Duobao Daoist and the others were merely puzzled as to why rebuilding the Jiejiao Sect would attract so much golden light of merit.
"Heh heh..."
Listening to the overt and covert envy from everyone, Sect Leader Tongtian's lips curled slightly. "Duobao, Golden Spirit, doesn't this scene seem a bit familiar to you?"
"Huh??"
Duobao Daoist was taken aback. He turned and carefully observed Yunxiao in mid-air, his pupils suddenly contracting.
Did a similar scene exist in his memory?
What was it?
It seemed to be the scene from back then when Master made a grand vow, established the Jiejiao Sect, and immediately became a Saint...
Wait!
Is this right?!
Duobao Daoist suppressed the absurd guess from the depths of his heart and murmured with a dry voice, "Master, this... this shouldn't be real, right?"
"Why can't it be real?" Sect Leader Tongtian retorted with a smile.
"..."
Duobao Daoist's heart sank, and he could no longer maintain his composure. He said sheepishly, "Master, didn't the Dao Ancestor say that becoming a Saint requires the foundation for becoming a Saint? Where did Junior Sister get her foundation?"
"Your Deputy Sect Leader gave it to her!"
Sect Leader Tongtian gestured towards Xuanming beside him. "Xuanming found the 'One That Escaped' and gave it to Yunxiao a few days ago, so taking this opportunity to rebuild the Jiejiao Sect, she should be able to break through the shackles of a Quasi-Saint!"
"No, no?"
"This??"
"The 'One That Escaped'??"
Let alone Duobao Daoist, who was dumbfounded, even Golden Spirit Mother and the others, who had been somewhat indifferent, were stunned.
It can't be?
The legendary 'One That Escaped'?
That was something even Ancestor Hongyun and Demon Master Kunpeng couldn't find, yet a mere Grand Unity Golden Immortal found it?
And this kid gave it to Yunxiao?
No?
Is he out of his mind?
That was the foundation for becoming a Saint, a treasure that could break through the limitations of a Quasi-Saint and elevate one from a pawn to a flag bearer of heaven and earth!
And you're just giving it away?
Duobao Daoist stared at Xuanming for a long time, unsure if he was praising or mocking him, and sighed with a complex tone:
"Deputy Sect Leader, you truly are... generous!"
"Of course!"
Xuanming smiled nonchalantly. To those who didn't understand the system, he wasn't just generous;
He was foolish!
But...
For someone who was about to gain another Primordial Violet Qi, and could even directly obtain the Dao Fruit of a Hunyuan Sage, a mere Primordial Violet Qi...
Alright!
It was still very precious!
It's just that no matter how precious something is, if you hold onto it without using it, it's no different from a piece of scrap paper.
Especially since his current cultivation was only Grand Unity Golden Immortal!
How long would it take to cultivate from Grand Unity Golden Immortal to the peak of Quasi-Saint?
Even the most astonishing genius would probably need thousands, tens of thousands of years, right?
By then, the Primordial Violet Qi would have gone moldy!
But Duobao Daoist didn't know any of this, nor did Golden Spirit Mother, nor even Bi Xiao and Qiong Xiao.
Therefore, Facing Xuanming, who was handing over the foundation for becoming a saint on a silver platter, everyone present looked at him with a multitude of other emotions in their eyes.
"Good disciple, don't worry!"
Bi Xiao sensed something was amiss and instantly appeared beside Xuanming. She scanned the surroundings with her eyes and said with a firm tone:
"When I break through, I'll let you become her disciple too. Let's see who dares to bully you then!"
"Huh??"
Xuanming was stunned by her words. "Master, you want me to become Eldest Martial Uncle's disciple? What about you?"
"Me? Of course, I'm still your Master!"
Bi Xiao pouted with a serious expression. "Who says you can only have one Master? From now on, she'll teach you how to use the Golden Flood Dragon Scissors, and I'll teach you how to cultivate. What do you think?"
"This..."
Xuanming's lips twitched. He looked at his Master with a mixture of amusement and exasperation. "Master, if I recall correctly, it's usually Second Martial Uncle who teaches me cultivation?"
"Ah? Is that so?"
Bi Xiao's pretty face flushed slightly, and her eyes darted upwards unnaturally. "Um, well? If you want, then let your Second Martial Uncle be your Master too? That way, you'll have three Masters!"
"...Nonsense!"
As Bi Xiao's words fell, not only was Xuanming dumbfounded, but even Sect Leader Tongtian beside him couldn't help himself.
"Little Bi Xiao, with your shoddy skills, don't come here and mess with Xuanming!"
"Master~!!!"
Being openly ridiculed by Sect Leader Tongtian, Bi Xiao's face quickly turned red, and she stomped her little feet petulantly.
"Didn't you ask me to take Xuanming as my disciple back then? You didn't dislike my shoddy skills then, but now you do, right?"
"Cough, well..."
Sect Leader Tongtian also felt a bit awkward. He hadn't really taken Xuanming seriously back then. The only reason he noticed him was because of his past, which was like a fog.
Plus, he was near San Xiao Island at the time, so he casually handed him over to San Xiao to look after.
But now?
Thinking of the treasures Xuanming had, and his extravagance in casually giving Nuwa an Innate Supreme Treasure, Tongtian felt the need to personally discipline him.
After all, Even he didn't have many Innate Supreme Treasures, so how could they be given away as gifts so casually?
With that thought, Facing the surprised gazes of Bi Xiao, Qiong Xiao, and everyone present, Sect Leader Tongtian announced with a straight face:
"It was different before, it's different now!"
"Now, Xuanming is the Deputy Sect Leader of my Jiejiao Sect, and his cultivation of Grand Unity Golden Immortal is really not presentable!"
"Therefore, I've decided to keep him by my side, and I will personally teach him!"
"Does anyone have any objections?"
