Holding Exchange Gatherings

A year has passed in the blink of an eye.

It was Lunar New Year's Eve again. This year, the Lingxian Sect Sect's annual meeting did not invite outsiders as it had last year. Instead, it was held internally for the sect members and disciples to receive various encouragements and rewards. They enjoyed a sumptuous lunch and that was the end of it.

As for the banquet, the disciples were not allowed to eat together; instead, all disciples were given a year-end holiday.

The seven-day holiday for the Lunar New Year is not only available in Xiushui City, but also in the Lingxian Sect.

As early as after Xiushui City, Lin Xiao told the disciples that if needed, they could move their family members to Xiushui City to settle down. If the disciples' family members did not want to leave their homeland, they could also go to the General Affairs Hall to register. The sect would be responsible for using spirit ships to send these registered disciples home to reunite with their families on New Year's Eve.

Although some disciples live far away, with the current strength of the Lingxian Sect Sect's spirit ships and at least Nascent Soul Realm personnel capable of navigating them, half a day is enough to send them home. When the holiday ends, the sect will also send spirit ships to pick up these disciples one by one.

The Lingxian Sect's status in the Mortal Realm is now completely different. Moreover, all the cultivators in the Mortal Realm are busy accumulating resources and earning Spirit Stone, and have no time or dare to offend the Lingxian Sect. Therefore, the sect no longer restricts its disciples from going on long trips.

However, in reality, not many disciples needed to be sent home; most disciples chose to bring their relatives to settle in Xiushui City.

This year, the tradition of setting off fireworks at Xiushui City on Lunar New Year's Eve continued.

Lin Yun posted a recruitment notice in advance at the sect's General Affairs Hall, recruiting thirty disciples to gather together on New Year's Eve to set off fireworks in the city.

These Azure Cloud Peak disciples had been trained and had experience last year, so when they took on the task this year, they were not flustered at all. Bai Zhu even took the lead in gathering everyone to formulate a complete procedure for setting off fireworks that night. They also discussed various combinations of fireworks Law Technique and came up with many new tricks.

These disciples of Azure Cloud Peak ate their New Year's Eve dinner early and rushed to the agreed-upon location, excitedly putting on a grand fireworks display for the entire city.

On the night of Lunar New Year's Eve, the sky above Xiushui City was especially dazzling.

After a year of initial setup and adjustment, the entire Trade Affairs Center is now running smoothly, and the various departments within the sect are becoming increasingly proficient in producing various goods. It's no longer the case that we needed to help out and fill in gaps everywhere we went.

Lin Xiao has recently resumed his leisurely life as the sect leader. He spends his days meditating and cultivating, or going to the Spirit Cuisine Hall to freeload off Fuzi. When it's his turn to attend a class at the Azure Cloud Peak Cultivation Hall, he takes the time to do so.

Although cultivation is a time-consuming process, it is indeed much easier than before.

It was also the result of the system and Senior Liao taking turns urging him. As the head of a sect, he couldn't keep being urged to cultivate, as that would be like a student who didn't like to study being urged to study by a teacher.

Furthermore, regarding the sect's vast collection of Cultivation Method and spells, the Lingxian Sect members managed to devour quite a few of them during the year, seizing every spare moment amidst their busy schedules.

While they weren't experts, they had all gotten the basics down, and each of them had learned at least ten things.

Not only do they learn Cultivation Method, but they also have fixed times for daily practice, study various Cultivation Method and skills, participate in various city-building tasks, manage the sect and businesses in the city, and maintain the various management and operations of the sect and the city...

Many Lingxian Sect disciples, while chatting with their families during their annual leave, were suddenly surprised to realize how much they had accomplished in the past year.

It wasn't just the disciples of the Lingxian Sect who had this sudden realization; even the royal families of the major sects in the Mortal Realm felt the same way.

Whether they were trading with Xiushui City or running passenger transport businesses, the leaders of each sect were incredibly excited when they tallied up their accounts at the end of the year and saw the surplus of various Cultivation Resources and Spirit Stone in their warehouses.

Furthermore, the elders summarized the disciples' cultivation levels and skill proficiency over the past year, and found that everyone had made significant progress.

Of course, this significant improvement is in comparison to previous years, and does not mean that they have actually made a leap forward in just one year.

Skills such as talisman making and alchemy have improved significantly, not only for disciples but also for the elders of the sect.

Furthermore, since some members of the royal families of these sects in Xiushui City who purchase goods do not possess the refining skills, they will directly provide refining methods. Although most of these methods are for refining items that are not commonly used in cultivation, it is important to know that many things can be mastered by talented individuals.

Therefore, many sects and royal families have people with these talents in cultivation techniques. After learning many different refining methods, they can apply what they have learned to other methods and make significant breakthroughs in their refining journey.

As a result, many sects began to exchange ideas frequently. Gradually, many sect royal families even held numerous exchange meetings to facilitate more communication and learning between their own talents and those of others, so that they could make greater breakthroughs in their respective skills and thus produce a wider variety of goods and methods.

Furthermore, due to its convenient transportation and suitable venue, almost all of these exchange meetings of any significant size were held at Xiushui City.

When the City Lord's Mansion of Xiushui City first learned of this matter, it immediately decided to lend a vacant lot in the very center of the city to these exchange meetings free of charge. The City Lord's Mansion had only one requirement for these exchange meetings: they must be completely open so that all interested people in the city could come and listen.

This was no big deal for these cultivators. In their view, let those who didn't understand listen; they wouldn't understand anyway.

As the exchange of cultivation techniques developed, some sects began to have other ideas.

Since cultivation techniques can be exchanged, can cultivation methods and insights also be exchanged?

Anyway, the highest cultivation level in the Mortal Realm is only Lingxian Sect Nascent Soul. Besides, with the Lingxian Sect and its Lingxian Sect Spirit Transformation Stage cultivators, who's afraid of anyone being stronger?

Anyway, none of them are as strong as the Lingxian Sect.

This fact had already become an indisputable truth in the minds of all Mortal Realm cultivators when Lingxian Sect swiftly wiped out Myriad Connections and the nine high-level cultivators from the Immortal Cultivation Realm.

Many sects that were in agreement on holding cultivation exchange meetings even extended invitations to the Lingxian Sect, hoping that the Lingxian Sect could send a high-level cultivator to share their cultivation experiences at each meeting. It would be best if they could invite a Spirit Transformation Stage cultivator.

Lingxian Sect readily agreed to this.
