Three-Layer Sword Intent!
Even Elder Zhu, a Venerable Realm expert, felt a measure of shock in his heart.
Xu Jun had comprehended one layer of Sword Intent, and that alone gave him formidable strength that was difficult to defeat among those of the same realm.
Yet Lin Feng had actually comprehended three layers of Sword Intent!
No wonder so many of Xu Jun's methods had been unable to harm Lin Feng.
The main gap between the two lay in their comprehension of the sword path!
After thinking for a moment.
Elder Zhu's voice gradually rose. "Your talent is exceptional. You comprehended Three-Layer Sword Intent before even reaching the Sea of Reincarnation Realm. Your talent in the sword path is second to none; keeping you in the outer sect would be a disservice to you."
"Therefore, you may skip the outer sect and enter the inner sect directly!"
Though Elder Zhu did not speak loudly, his words spread throughout the entire venue, allowing everyone to hear them clearly.
Many people's eyes immediately turned red with envy.
Entering the outer sect of Limitless Sacred Land was a lifelong dream for many, something they pursued all their lives. If they failed to enter, some would even die in despondency!
And now Lin Feng was being admitted directly into the inner sect?
Who would not envy him?
Lin Feng was slightly stunned. He had not expected such a benefit.
Then he nodded slightly. "Thank you, Elder!"
Elder Zhu then waved his hand, and a spatial ring descended above Lin Feng.
At that moment, Lin Feng's gaze sharpened, and even he felt a trace of envy.
Because he knew what the spatial ring contained.
Elder Zhu said, "This is the reward for taking first place in the disciple assessment. Keep it safe."
"And the Sword Tempering Pool slot is yours as well. However, the Sword Tempering Pool will only open in three days. When the time comes, I will personally take you there."
"Thank you, Elder!" Lin Feng took a deep breath and accepted the spatial ring.
In that instant, countless gazes around him turned toward him.
Their envy was boundless.
There were even Dao Condensation Realm experts among the spectators whose blood and qi stirred, as though they wished to seize it.
Yet this was Limitless Sacred Land. No one dared to do such a thing.
Lin Feng's heart also surged with excitement.
What it contained were three seventh-grade pills, ten seventh-grade spirit herbs, and one million Low-Grade Origin Stones!
Such incomparably abundant resources...
If they had been placed in the Great Yan Dynasty where Lin Feng had once lived, they could have built an entire Lineage.
"This is the grandeur of Limitless Sacred Land. Merely taking first place in an Outer Disciple assessment brings such lavish rewards! What rewards would Inner Disciples, or even core disciples, receive?"
Lin Feng's ambitions swelled bit by bit.
Inner Disciple was far from his final destination.
"The rankings of the top ten have already been decided. Next comes the battle for the top ten thousand rankings," Elder Zhu said slowly.
Then another round of fighting began.
But it no longer had anything to do with Lin Feng.
Moreover, the attention around him plummeted to the extreme. Only the top ten were the focus of everyone's gaze.
As for those below? They were like a group of mortals fighting each other, utterly meaningless to watch.
Elder Zhu looked toward Lin Feng once more and said, "You are now an Inner Disciple. You may follow the elder from the Cultivation Arts Pavilion to the inner sect. He will arrange your residence."
Hearing this, Lin Feng looked toward the elder from the Cultivation Arts Pavilion and nodded slightly. "I'll trouble you, Elder."
The elder from the Cultivation Arts Pavilion smiled faintly and looked Lin Feng up and down. He truly had not expected that he had previously told Lin Feng not to aim too high, saying that striving for the top ten would be enough.
Who would have thought that even first place would fall into Lin Feng's hands, and without him spending much effort at all.
After defeating Xu Jun, he even seemed to have strength left to spare!
The elder from the Cultivation Arts Pavilion waved his hand, and surging great power swept up Lin Feng, shooting toward the inner sect.
The outer sect and the inner sect were as different as heaven and earth!
Inner Disciples could freely enter and leave the outer sect, but Outer Disciples did not have the qualifications to do so!
The two places were one in heaven and one on earth. Whether it was the density of origin power or the various treasures stored in the inner sect, the outer sect could not compare.
Behind him, Lin Feng sensed several gazes fixed upon him. He did not need to turn around to know who they were.
They were clearly Xu Jun and those other geniuses.
Lin Feng did not care, because those he had defeated would never have the chance to catch up to him.
After entering the inner sect, Lin Feng would have even more opportunities!
He had wandered around the outer sect for so long before obtaining a golden entry. The inner sect was so vast and boundless that it should have one too. He wondered what it would be.
Rumble!
It was as though he had traveled through time and space.
Lin Feng focused his eyes and discovered that the scene before him had undergone an earth-shaking transformation.
This place was like a true immortal realm!
The origin power was incomparably dense.
Cultivation speed was at least three times that of the outer sect.
Within the clouds in the sky, he could even see divine dragons rolling through the heavens and immortal beasts roaring, presenting a majestic sight.
Lin Feng's heart surged.
Then the elder from the Cultivation Arts Pavilion spoke. "That is where you will live."
Following his gaze, Lin Feng saw a small pavilion. It was somewhat ancient, but no matter what, it was independent.
When he reached the pavilion and looked into the distance, he saw countless overlapping pavilions standing there. Every level had at least a thousand, and when he looked upward, they seemed endless!
The elder from the Cultivation Arts Pavilion said indifferently, "You have only just entered the inner sect, so your rank is low and you will live here. If your strength improves, you must try to challenge your way upward. The higher you live, the more laws there are and the denser the origin power becomes. It can only benefit you, never harm you."
Lin Feng nodded slightly.
No matter where one went, there was competition and a path to climb upward.
And Lin Feng was confident that with his current talent, climbing higher was only a matter of time.
"Alright, I still have matters to handle." The elder from the Cultivation Arts Pavilion smiled. "Cultivate well from here on. The resources awarded to first place are not few, so hurry and absorb them! In three days, you will also make a trip to the Sword Tempering Pool. That will be another challenge. Do not think that merely entering the Sword Tempering Pool will bring you benefits. There are no such good things under heaven!"
"When the time comes, I hope you will have grown stronger."
After saying that, the elder from the Cultivation Arts Pavilion vanished directly.
Without a trace.
Lin Feng could not see through the methods of the strong, but his heart longed for them greatly.
But he was only at the Eighth Stage of the Blood-Shifting Realm now, far too weak. He needed to become stronger.
Lin Feng also kept the elder from the Cultivation Arts Pavilion's words firmly in mind.
The Sword Tempering Pool was a place of tempering. It likely had certain requirements; if one's own qualifications were insufficient, one probably would not gain much benefit within it.
No matter. There was no need to think so much about it.
Lin Feng entered his own pavilion. Though it was not large, it was far better than the dark corners where Registered Disciples lived!
Where Registered Disciples lived was practically a doghouse—no, even a doghouse was better!
Now that he had moved to such a place, it could not be called magnificent and resplendent, but it was on a completely different level from a Registered Disciple's residence.
Lin Feng sat down cross-legged.
His eyes burned with fervent light as he took out the spatial ring.
With a slight connection of his consciousness.
All the rewards inside floated into the air!
Ten fist-sized black vines hovered there. These were the ten seventh-grade spirit herbs!
And there were also three thumb-sized pills, with faint purple qi swirling around them.
