Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Xiao Han's body was buried by the storm.

"Boom!"

Dust billowed as the members of the Eastern Spirit Sect craned their necks, straining their eyes to see the results of the Sky-Supporting Sword.

As the smoke dissipated, a figure shrouded in a pale golden barrier appeared in everyone's sight, gently waving his spear somewhere in the space.

"Thump!"

"Boom!"

A Portal suddenly opened within the Ten Thousand Arrays Heavenly Domain, and a spotless figure in white robes stepped out, clicking his tongue as if savoring the moment, and said:

"Not bad, I didn't embarrass Battle Venerable Mingyu."

When the higher-ups of the Eastern Spirit Sect invited Xiao Han and his companion into the sect's main hall...

"Does Your Excellency know the whereabouts of our sect's first Sect Master?"

The Eastern Spirit Sect asked urgently.

A tiny, unrealistic hope rose in his heart: what if the Sect Master, who had been missing for thousands of years, really did exist in the world?

Although he is the Eastern Spirit Sect, he was only promoted in a hurry when the old Sect Master disappeared to prevent Eastern Spirit Sect from being leaderless and being taken advantage of.

When it comes to true prestige, one has to look to the old Sect Master; his cultivation as Great Spirit Array Master is unparalleled on the continent.

The so-called Southern Blade Pavilion, Western Mystery Gate, and Northern Shadow Palace were nothing more than underlings of the Spirit Sect back then, and the Spirit Sect would never have been forced to change its name to the Eastern Spirit Sect.

"The Battle Venerable Mingyu has fallen."

Xiao Han's answer was simple, direct, and merciless, leaving no room for the Eastern Spirit Sect to have any illusions.

"And who are these two seniors...?"

Only then, immersed in grief, did the Eastern Spirit Sect remember the most important question: the identity of the visitor.

"Me..."

Xiao Han said casually, "I suppose he can be considered the successor of the Battle Venerable Mingyu."

Having said that, a jade flute carved with a dragon head appeared in his palm, which was the token of the Battle Venerable Mingyu.

"So, senior, are you preparing to take over the Eastern Spirit Sect?"

Now that their identity is confirmed, we need to determine their purpose.

The expressions of the Eastern Spirit Sect Master and the Elder became strange, as the identity of Battle Venerable Mingyu, was quite subtle.

Logically speaking, the successor of the Battle Venerable Mingyu should indeed be qualified to inherit the position of Sect Eastern Spirit Sect.

However, the reality is that the current Sect Master the Eastern Spirit Sect has been in charge of the Eastern Spirit Sect for thousands of years. During this time, he has worked diligently and faithfully, and can be described as having made great contributions, leaving no room for criticism.

If an unknown outsider suddenly appears and tries to seize the throne, even if the other party has overwhelming strength, not many people will agree with it.

"Have you all forgotten the rules of the Ten Thousand Arrays Heavenly Domain?"

Xiao Han did not deny the question from the Eastern Spirit Sect, nor was he surprised by the Eastern Spirit Sect's resistance. He then gave his reasons.

At this moment, the members of the Eastern Spirit Sect looked at each other with complicated expressions, understanding Xiao Han's meaning.

They knew the rules of the Ten Thousand Arrays Heavenly Domain all too well: any disciple of the Eastern Spirit Sect who could successfully pass through the Ten Thousand Arrays Heavenly Domain would automatically become a candidate for Sect Master.

Xiao Han, who possesses the legacy of the Battle Venerable Mingyu, may not necessarily be qualified to succeed as Sect Master, but he is more than qualified to be a disciple.

Therefore, Xiao Han, who exceeded the target in completing the Ten Thousand Arrays Heavenly Domain test, has become a candidate for the next Sect Master and has the qualifications to challenge the Sect Master.

Based on the comparison of their combat strength, the outcome of the challenge is beyond doubt.

"Well, what are your thoughts, everyone?"

Xiao Han wasn't aggressive, but he exuded an aura that left no room for argument. If the Eastern Spirit Sect didn't agree, things would likely get very difficult to resolve.

"What does Senior wish to instruct the Eastern Spirit Sect to do?"

His fist clenched and unclenched repeatedly, and finally, as if he had come to a realization, the Eastern Spirit Sect Master asked the question that had been troubling him.

"Power or wealth?"

After much thought, this was the only use the Eastern Spirit Sect had for this Great Spirit Array Master.

"Yes, we have them all."

Xiao Han had a big appetite, which made the Elder of the Eastern Spirit Sect look grim. At the same time, they harbored resentment towards the first Sect Master Battle Venerable Mingyu, for bringing a hungry wolf into their ranks.

"Not only the Eastern Spirit Sect, but Four Great Spirit Sects are my targets."

If Xiao Han's impression on the Eastern Spirit Sect was still one of greed and power, this statement might now be accompanied by the word "madness."

This person actually dared to attempt to unify the Four Great Spirit Sects and try to take over the Lingtian Continent?

"What do you mean, senior?"

"Literal meaning."

"I need to build a powerful force in a short period of time, and the Four Great Spirit Sects are the best choice."

Xiao Han made no attempt to conceal his purpose.

"Does the senior know that although the other three sects are slightly weaker than us, they are not far behind?"

"Even though the three sects do not have Heavenly Supreme and Great Spirit Array Master, they still possess comparable trump cards."

The Eastern Spirit Sect, with an air of dissuasion, said:

"Isn't that reckless?"

He wasn't exaggerating; it was the truth.

Each Spirit Array Master's earning power is only slightly weaker than that of Alchemist of the same level, and their combat power is far superior to that of Alchemist.

The large number of Spirit Array Master gathered in the Four Great Spirit Sects are highly sought-after in the Great Thousand World. If they didn't have some ability, they would have been divided up by other forces that were eyeing them covetously.

The Ten Thousand Arrays Heavenly Domain of the Eastern Spirit Sect, the Thousand Illusion Realm of the Western Mystery Gate, the Absolute Shadow Killing Array of the Southern Blade Pavilion, and the Heavenly Abyss of the Northern Shadow Palace, under the leadership of their respective leaders, can all unleash power comparable to that of Heavenly Supreme. Their combat strength is even comparable to that of an invincible being of the same level, such as the Ice Emperor.

Even a rabbit will bite when cornered. If the four major powers are truly pushed to the limit, the combined strength they unleash will be astonishing.

Even if the opponent is Heavenly Supreme or Great Spirit Array Master, they will still pay a heavy price.

The Eastern Spirit Sect said this purely out of good intentions, not wanting the first generation successor, who possessed such formidable strength, to die young.

After all, if the other party is willing to properly develop their sect's power, the rise of the Eastern Spirit Sect is just around the corner, and the dark clouds hanging over their heads will disappear without a trace.

Although, according to the other Elder, the best outcome for Xiao Han was to be wiped out by the combined forces of the other three factions for recklessly provoking them.

Xiao Han didn't speak, but instead waved his hand to set up a Spirit Array that enveloped the hall. Under the bright sunlight, the light emanating from the Spirit Array was both dazzling and dangerous.

Seeing this, everyone became vigilant, guarding against the possibility of Xiao Han suddenly attacking them.

However, Xiao Han smiled slightly.

"This is a high-level Spirit Array. Can anyone calculate the time it took Han to set Spirit Array up?"

Time?

It shouldn't have taken more than two breaths, right?

After Xiao Han's reminder, the Elder who frequently dealt with Spirit Array realized how terrifying Xiao Han's array-setting speed was, and fell into a state of shock, like tech geeks.

Because they were Spirit Array Master, they knew exactly how inhuman this speed was. Among the people present were many knowledgeable people who had seen other Great Spirit Array Master make their moves, but none of them had ever seen such speed.

Excluding the difference in cultivation level, the only explanation is that Xiao Han has mastered some kind of technique for quickly setting up formations.

If this trick were universally applicable...

The slow array-setting speed that was once criticized by Spirit Array Master will no longer be an issue, and many Elders have begun to envision a bright future for Spirit Array Master.

Then, the sound of a fist lightly tapping the table reached his ears. Turning his head, he met Xiao Han's smiling gaze.

"So, do you want to learn?"

"I'll teach you!"
