Although Tiger Monster and Snake Monster had felt rather pleased with themselves when everyone first showered them with praise,
Duobao's reminder had now brought them both to their senses.
Everything they had achieved today depended on the opportunities Senior Brother had left them.
Had they not happened upon Senior Brother's opportunities, today's outcome might not have been nearly so satisfying.
Duobao nodded in satisfaction.
"Exactly."
"We owe today's resounding success entirely to Senior Brother."
"But look around. How many of us have actually found the opportunities Senior Brother left behind?"
"I'm sure everyone now understands the benefits of Senior Brother's opportunities. If we could all find our own opportunities..."
Duobao left the rest unsaid, letting everyone imagine it for themselves.
In truth, even without Duobao continuing, everyone could envision what the future held.
Only four of them had found the opportunities Senior Brother left behind so far. What if there were ten? A hundred?
At the thought of all of them finding the opportunities Senior Brother had left for them, countless people could not help drawing a deep breath!
If that truly happened...
Wouldn't their Interception Sect stand alone above the entire Primordial World?
Only now did everyone truly understand Senior Brother's painstaking intentions.
"Senior Brother disbanded the Interception Sect because he wanted us to scatter across the Primordial World and find our own opportunities?"
"With the Interception Sect protecting us, we would lose the drive to advance."
"Only by leaving the Interception Sect behind can we all grow together!"
"So this was the care Senior Brother put into his plans!"
"..."
Most of the Jie Sect Disciples were deeply moved, and their hearts were already brimming with anticipation.
Meanwhile, on Ten Thousand Green Mountain,
a figure sat cross-legged on the ground.
The aura surrounding him began rising steadily.
A golden book floated before Golden Hoop Immortal. As his aura rose, its pages began turning continuously.
When the golden book finally closed again, Golden Hoop Immortal's aura climbed to its peak!
In a single brief instant, he broke through to the next realm!
"I actually broke through?!"
Golden Hoop Immortal had been stuck in this realm for a full thirty thousand years.
To think that merely comprehending the opportunity within this formation book had made up for thirty thousand years of cultivation. How terrifying was that?
He had also obtained a Daoist Art from this formation opportunity.
But this Daoist Art seemed rather peculiar to him.
Digging up ancestral graves!
Only by continually digging up ancestral graves could he keep increasing his strength.
But where in the Primordial World was he supposed to find ancestral graves to dig up?
Golden Hoop Immortal had been delighted the instant he obtained the Daoist Art, but after reading through it, he immediately deflated.
Who in the Primordial World would deliberately build a grave?
Let alone an ancestral grave!
Didn't that mean he would be unable to advance even an inch?
But Golden Hoop Immortal gave it some careful thought.
Senior Brother surely would not have given him an opportunity that was so impossible to realize.
There had to be something he had overlooked.
Golden Hoop Immortal pondered it from every angle, and suddenly his eyes lit up!
I can't dig up their ancestral graves, but I can wipe out their cultivation grounds!
Ancestral graves and cultivation grounds should be more or less the same thing, right?
He acted on the thought at once. Golden Hoop Immortal rose, shook off the nonexistent dust on his clothes, then turned into a streak of light and shot toward Kunlun Mountain.
The Jie Sect Disciples were now locked in a fierce battle with those sanctimonious hypocrites from the Chan Sect.
It was already too late for him to rush over and reinforce them. Why not seize this chance to dig up the enemy's lair instead?
Surely Senior Brother would be delighted to see such a scene.
Why else would he have given him an opportunity like this?
Having comprehended his new Daoist Art, Golden Hoop Immortal was positively bursting with excitement.
In just a short while, he reached the Chan Sect's cultivation grounds.
As he gazed at the Chan Sect's cultivation grounds before him, Golden Hoop Immortal's eyes burned with eagerness.
Today, he would wipe these cultivation grounds out!
Meanwhile, after Guangchengzi's defeat, the Chan Sect Disciples were racing back to their Kunlun Mountain without pause.
They did not even dare stop for a moment, afraid that the Interception Sect disciples would catch up again.
After all, those people were hardly the reasonable sort. If they got entangled with them, they would have to waste another great deal of breath.
After hurrying along, they finally reached a valley.
Yet the moment they stepped into it, Daoist Randeng frowned.
"Wait!"
As expected of the Chan Sect's Vice Leader, he was extremely sensitive to his surroundings.
Logically, this place was only a few tens of thousands of li from Kunlun Mountain. There should not have been anyone from the Interception Sect here.
Yet Daoist Randeng felt his heart pounding wildly.
It was as though something dreadful had befallen him.
The Chan Sect Disciples all stopped, not daring to move recklessly.
"Vice Leader, is something wrong?"
"It looks like those Interception Sect people haven't followed us. Why don't we return to our cultivation grounds as soon as possible?"
"We're so close to Kunlun Mountain. Those Interception Sect people shouldn't dare chase us here."
But Randeng suddenly roared!
"Get out at once!"
"This is a formation laid by those Interception Sect people!"
At Daoist Randeng's words, every disciple present paled!
Outside the formation, Yunxiao and the others chuckled softly.
"This is the Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation we poured all our efforts into developing."
"Now that these Interception Sect people have stepped into the formation, getting out won't be so easy!"
Even if they did not die, they would have a layer of skin peeled off!
After all, with the two sects at war, how could they simply leave whenever they pleased?
They had been the ones who wanted to fight, and then the ones who wanted to leave. Where did that leave the dignity of everyone in the Interception Sect?
Zhao Gongming nodded lightly as well.
"All we need to do is watch closely."
Meanwhile, on Golden Ao Island,
after Lu Feng sneezed several times in a row, system notifications began chiming in his ears.
[Congratulations, host. Disciple training completion has reached 86%. Reward: 100,000 years of cultivation.] [Congratulations, host. The number of disciples trained has reached six. Reward: one strand of primordial violet qi!] [Please keep up your efforts, host. Once the number of disciples trained reaches ten, you will receive a surprise gift package!] [Congratulations, host. Disciple training completion has reached 92%. Reward: formation law!] [...]
As reward after reward appeared, Lu Feng was utterly dumbfounded.
"Seriously, what happened?"
"Why am I suddenly getting so many rewards?"
Before Lu Feng could process it, however, the hundred thousand years of cultivation had already arrived.
But Lu Feng's strength had already risen considerably.
A hundred thousand years of cultivation could no longer let him break through in one fell swoop as it had before.
Perhaps he would have to wait for that surprise gift package the system had mentioned.
After absorbing his hundred thousand years of cultivation, Lu Feng immediately checked the rewards the system had given him.
Aside from those hundred thousand years of cultivation, the most eye-catching reward was the primordial violet qi.
