Bringing these two back would surely make Uncle-Master Yun Tian very happy.
Especially with a bonus gift—a Sage Remnant Soul!
He would be even happier!
"Backer Sect!"
"One of the Nine Great Immortal Sects of the Eastern Region!"
Lin Yang and Mu Qingqing were both overjoyed. They had never expected the senior before them to be an expert of the Backer Sect. No wonder his cultivation was so formidable!
Hua Yunfei nodded and looked at the Sage Remnant Soul.
"Senior..."
The Sage Remnant Soul rubbed his hands together, doing his best to put on a kindly smile.
"Your situation is unusual. I also have important matters to attend to and cannot return to the sect for the time being, so..."
Hua Yunfei looked at Lin Yang. "Lin Yang, this Sage Remnant Soul will follow you from now on!"
"Ah?"
Lin Yang froze. The Sage Remnant Soul was being given to him?
This Sage believes this matter still requires careful deliberation.
Though a Sage Remnant Soul was not a true Sage, his cultivation techniques, insights, divine abilities, secret arts, and more were all priceless treasures.
Especially in this age, when Sages were scarce, it was all the more precious!
To have a Sage as one's master—how many geniuses dared not even dream of such a thing?
"Senior, this is a Sage Remnant Soul. If you keep him, the cultivation techniques and insights he possesses will surely be of great help to you."
"Perhaps when you become a Sage in the future, he may even offer you guidance!"
Lin Yang said.
He truly wanted it in his heart, but he had to remain rational.
What if this was the senior's test of his character? Wouldn't he be walking straight into a trap?
"Help me?"
Hua Yunfei shook his head with a smile. With his cultivation, would he need help from a Sage Remnant Soul?
Help him retreat instead?
"Enough. I have no need for these things. Seeing that your aptitude is excellent and that you are about to become a true disciple of my sect, I bestow him upon you. Do not refuse."
As soon as he finished speaking, before Lin Yang could respond, Hua Yunfei brought two fingers together and drew the Sage Remnant Soul toward Lin Yang.
"Relax your body and mind. Do not resist."
Lin Yang immediately complied. He sat cross-legged on the ground, closed his eyes, and relaxed as much as possible.
Hua Yunfei placed his other hand atop Lin Yang's crown, exerted a little force, then swiftly pulled. A pale white phantom was dragged out from Lin Yang's body!
This was Lin Yang's soul!
"Quick, quick, quick! This Sage is about to live again!" The Sage Remnant Soul was delighted, without the slightest psychological burden.
Very soon, his remnant soul collided with Lin Yang's soul.
Sizzle!
White smoke instantly rose between the two souls. Looking closely, Lin Yang's soul was too weak to fuse properly, and much of it was being evaporated!
"Mm!"
Lin Yang furrowed his brows in pain, yet he did not dare forget Hua Yunfei's words. He guarded his true self, relaxed his entire body, and allowed his soul to be controlled.
"Lin Yang... you can do it!"
Mu Qingqing watched anxiously, filled with worry.
"What are you grinning for? Hurry and suppress your soul strength! Are you trying to get yourself killed?"
Seeing this, Hua Yunfei glanced at the grinning Sage Remnant Soul and shouted coldly!
"I want to live, I want to live!"
The Sage Remnant Soul hurriedly suppressed his own soul strength, but it merely slowed the evaporation of Lin Yang's soul a little.
Lin Yang, at the Vein Opening Realm, had a soul that was simply too weak!
Before reaching the Core Formation Realm and opening his sea of consciousness, it was difficult for him to withstand this kind of soul habitation and fusion.
But naturally, this was no challenge for Hua Yunfei.
He exhaled a breath of immortal qi, which floated around Lin Yang's soul.
The soul evaporation vanished in an instant, and it began fusing perfectly with the Sage Remnant Soul!
"My soul strength has actually reached the level of the Violet Palace Realm in an instant!"
That breath of immortal qi from Hua Yunfei was a trace of his soul power, only slightly fused into Lin Yang's soul.
Yet in an instant, it allowed Lin Yang's soul strength to leap past the Core Formation Realm and reach the strength of the Violet Palace Realm!
Lin Yang was secretly thrilled. This was an enormous stroke of fortune!
After the Sage Remnant Soul successfully fused with Lin Yang, Hua Yunfei withdrew the immortal qi and returned Lin Yang's soul to his body.
"Thank you, Senior!"
Lin Yang opened his eyes and hurriedly knelt to express his gratitude.
These two opportunities were no less than the grace of being reborn. They would surely affect his entire life!
"You and I are already fellow disciples. Why thank me?"
"If you truly wish to thank me, then work hard and repay the sect in the future."
Hua Yunfei waved his hand and spoke without the slightest concern.
To him, it was merely a matter of lifting a hand.
The Sage Remnant Soul was utterly useless to him, and there was even less reason to give it to Ye Bufan.
He could give Ye Bufan something better. There was no need for a Sage Remnant Soul to lead him astray.
Moreover, the Sage Remnant Soul's condition was special. If he did not find a new host, he would soon dissipate.
Even with Hua Yunfei's mana, he could only preserve him for a short time.
This time, Hua Yunfei had gone out to recruit disciples. At the longest, it would take several months, and the Sage Remnant Soul could not possibly last that long.
He had to find a host to survive.
Lin Yang happened to be willing to join the Backer Sect, and his aptitude was excellent. Giving the Sage Remnant Soul to him would not be an insult to the Sage Remnant Soul.
On the contrary, with Lin Yang's aptitude already having reached Dao Grade Apex, aided by the Sage Remnant Soul, his future achievements might not necessarily be inferior to Ou Haochen's, who originally possessed Saint-grade aptitude!
Moreover, Lin Yang possessed a special physique. His future achievements would be absolutely immeasurable!
Perhaps one day, the Backer Sect's Ancestral Tomb might house another top-tier foundation.
As he left Qingyang Town, Hua Yunfei scattered the heavenly secrets in the surrounding area, preventing others from deducing what had happened here.
Having learned from the previous incident with the Dao Yi Immortal Sect, he was even more cautious during this trip.
He eliminated every risk of exposure.
Even the smallest possibility had to be strangled in the cradle.
Afterward.
Hua Yunfei arrived at the Blood Spirit Sect. After wiping it out with a wave of his hand, he likewise scattered the heavenly secrets around it.
The Blood Spirit Sect had committed countless evils. It claimed to be righteous, yet its deeds had lost all conscience and humanity.
Though Hua Yunfei did not possess much kindness, the miserable state of Qingyang Town had made even his scalp tingle.
Such an evil sect should not exist in this world!
Destroying it was enough to save tens of thousands upon tens of thousands of people!
After settling everything, the four boarded the flying boat, traveling through the void as they once more began their journey of recruiting disciples.
"Gasp... What a luxurious flying boat. An ordinary person definitely couldn't afford a magical treasure like this, could they?"
The Sage Remnant Soul stared wide-eyed, smacking his lips as he looked at the more than ten thousand Spirit Stones in the power cabin. He nearly drooled.
In his previous life, though he had been a Sage, he had been exceedingly poor. For the sake of a little cultivation resource, he had done plenty of sneaking around like a thief.
Even so, he had nearly died at the hands of others several times while fighting over resources!
One thousand High-Grade Spirit Stones were equivalent to one hundred thousand Mid-Grade Spirit Stones, or ten million low-grade Spirit Stones!
