Jie Sect Disciples by the Thousands!

"To be able to condense Wind and Thunder Divine Formation with power comparable to the one Master personally set up on his palm! This is truly beyond my expectations!" Cult Master Tongtian couldn't help but exclaim.

"Isn't this something anyone can do? It's a piece of cake, don't get so worked up!"

Unexpectedly, upon hearing the Cult Master Tongtian praise him so highly, Lin Yunji merely curled his lip, showing complete disdain.

The Cult Master Tongtian: "..."

To be able to set up a grand formation that even Quasi-Sage level experts fear with a wave of one's hand—is that just a matter of having hands?

Does that mean he doesn't have hands?

Moreover, if this level of formation is considered mere child's play, then what kind of grand formation could possibly catch his eye?

Therefore, after hearing Lin Yunji's words, the Cult Master Tongtian was at a loss for words.

I just think that Lin Yunji such a bastard, he really loves to brag!

However, what he didn't know was that Lin Yunji was actually telling the truth.

After all, he can not only set up the Wind and Thunder Divine Formation at will.

He could also set up the Zhou Heavenly Star Grand Formation and the Twelve Heavenly Divine Sha Formation with a wave of his hand.

These are all trivial skills for him!

Moreover, the power of the formation he set up was in no way inferior to the great formations condensed by Dijun, Taiyi, and the Twelve Ancestral Witches!

Duobao, who had been standing to the side for a long time, felt a chill run down his spine when he heard Cult Master Tongtian say that Lin Yunji could casually set up an array comparable to one personally set up by Sage Hongjun. Even the flesh on his face trembled.

He looked at Lin Yunji and couldn't help but swallow, his eyes filled with fear and shock.

"My senior brother is even more terrifying than I imagined!"

"He's someone I can't afford to mess with! Never provoke him!"

Daoist Duobao frantically reminded himself in his heart!

"During my time in the Primordial Wilderness Land, how many disciples did your second senior uncle recruit for the Chan Sect?" The Cult Master Tongtian didn't inquire further about Lin Yunji's formations, but instead changed the subject.

Lin Yunji casually replied, "Twelve are regular disciples, and two are Registered Disciple."

"Ha, you still have the nerve to say I collected a lot!"

Hearing Lin Yunji's words, the Cult Master Tongtian snorted coldly, quite indignantly saying, "So many years have passed, and I've only taken in Duobao as a disciple. He keeps saying he wants fewer but better disciples, yet he's taken in fourteen at once!"

"No way! I can't let him fall short when it comes to taking on disciples! This time I'm going to take on even more!"

His tone was full of indignation!

Lin Yunji heard this and felt both amused and exasperated.

So his master just came here to compete with his second brother in terms of the number of disciples?

That's a really peculiar point of view!

Immediately, Lin Yunji's heart stirred, and he seemed to suddenly realize something.

Did the Heavenly Venerable Yuanshi also enjoy holding grudges?

Otherwise, how Laozi took in Xuandu, while he had to take in as many as fourteen others!

This is clearly a comparison with Laozi in terms of the number of his disciples!

After that, the Cult Master Tongtian became even more powerful!

Then they would take on apprentices in the tens of thousands.

"I really don't know... whether this is their way of doing things, or... whether they're just competing with each other out of spite!" Lin Yunji slapped his forehead and couldn't help but mutter to himself.

Soon, Lin Yunji and Daoist Duobao returned to the Three Pure Ones Hall with the Cult Master Tongtian.

At this moment, Heavenly Venerable Yuanshi and Laozi were in a state of spiritual wandering with their eyes closed.

As soon as they stepped into the hall, Heavenly Venerable Yuanshi and Laozi opened their eyes at the same time.

"Tongtian, you've returned with your new disciple?" Laozi sized up Duobao, stroked his beard, and laughed. "His lineage is quite solid, and his potential is also good!"

"Duobao greets his eldest and second grandmaster uncles. May both grandmaster uncles live long and prosper!"

Duobao hurriedly stepped forward and bowed deeply to Laozi and Heavenly Venerable Yuanshi, then said, "This disciple had long heard of how powerful you two senior uncles are! Now, seeing you in person, I find you are far more powerful than the rumors suggest! This disciple's admiration for you two senior uncles has grown from..."

"Smack!"

He launched into a string of flattery, but before he could finish, Lin Yunji slapped him hard on the back of the head again.

"Give it a rest, all you do is flatter people all day long!" Lin Yunji glanced at him.

I couldn't help but think to myself, this rascal is really something, he can come up with a whole new set of flattering phrases.

"Yes, yes, yes, Senior Brother is right!" After being hit, Duobao was startled and quickly shrank his neck, moved to the side, and even covered his mouth to show that he would not say another word.

"Hahahaha!" Laozi stroked his beard and laughed heartily when he saw Duobao's appearance, feeling quite pleased.

Even the usually serious Heavenly Venerable Yuanshi had a slight twitch at the corner of his mouth, seemingly struggling to suppress his laughter.

"Second Senior Brother, I heard from Yunji that you've taken in twelve formal disciple and two Registered Disciple?"

At this moment, the Cult Master Tongtian suddenly looked at the Heavenly Venerable Yuanshi with a half-smile and said.

"That's right, and we owe it all to my nephew Yunji's help!"

The Heavenly Venerable Yuanshi nodded in agreement, and then added, "Moreover, they all have profound lineages, excellent wisdom, and righteous origins, making them suitable to join my Chan Sect!"

"No need for further explanation! Right now, I only have two disciples, Lin Yunji and Duobao, while you have as many as fourteen!"

Heavenly Venerable Yuanshi waved his hand, glared at Heavenly Venerable Yuanshi, and said loudly, "I'd like to see what reason you have this time to refuse me from taking on more disciples!"

This attitude is as if to say: You told me not to take more, but you still took so much yourself. Don't you even know how much it hurts to slap yourself in the face?

"Hmph! That's just sophistry!"

Upon hearing this, Heavenly Venerable Yuanshi frowned and explained, "The disciples I accept are all of profound lineage, possess exceptional wisdom, and have legitimate origins. It's not because of quantity!"

"Second Senior Brother, come and see the disciples I've taken in. Aren't they all deeply rooted, exceptionally gifted, and of impeccable lineage?"

The Cult Master Tongtian pointed at Lin Yunji and Daoist Duobao, and said smugly, "What's wrong with them?"

"..." Laozi and Heavenly Venerable Yuanshi looked at Lin Yunji and Duobao, and for a moment they didn't know what to say.

Needless to say, Lin Yunji was someone they treated like family, and the Three Pure Ones always doted on him from the bottom of their hearts.

Duobao, on the other hand, seemed quite good; both his cultivation and background were better than those of the twelve formal disciple of the Chan Sect.

Seeing Laozi and Heavenly Venerable Yuanshi speechless, Cult Master Tongtian laughed even more triumphantly.

Then he added, "Now it seems that my two senior brothers have no objections, so I shall announce to the Primordial Wilderness that I wish to recruit disciples with exceptional 'wisdom potential' for the Jie Sect!"

When mentioning "innate wisdom," the Cult Master Tongtian emphasized the word.

"Hmph! Whatever!"

Seeing that the Cult Master Tongtian had made up his mind and there was no way to change it, Heavenly Venerable Yuanshi's expression turned ugly. He turned his face away with a flick of his sleeve, no longer looking at him or saying anything more.

As for Laozi, he certainly wouldn't say anything!

After all, he had already closed his eyes and continued his spiritual journey across the land.

"Hahahaha! How wonderful! Lin Yunji and Duobao, come with me to recruit disciples and strengthen our Great Jie Sect!"

The Cult Master Tongtian laughed heartily, feeling completely refreshed.

So they went together to the open square in front of the Three Pure Ones Hall.

Then the Cult Master Tongtian suddenly soared into the air, his voice booming like thunder. "I am a disciple of the Sage Hongjun, I am the transformed Primordial Spirit Pangu, my name is Tongtian, and I have now become a Heavenly Dao Sage and founded the Jie Sect!"

"Anyone who is single-mindedly devoted to the Dao may enter the gates of my Jie Sect!"

"Boom!"

With the blessing of the Great Dao, the voice of the Cult Master Tongtian resounded throughout the entire Primordial Wilderness Continent, and all living beings could hear his words clearly!

In an instant, the vast and boundless Primordial Wilderness Land was plunged into turmoil.

The Sage has taken on more disciples!

This is an excellent fortuitous opportunity for them!

"Let's go! We'll join that Jie Sect right now and become disciples of the Sage!"

"This Jie Sect is not like the Chan Sect; it advocates education for all, regardless of background. We all have the opportunity to become disciples of Sage!"

"The Cult Master Tongtian is indeed a man of great principle, willing to broaden our Dao Path and seize a glimmer of hope for us."

"This is the Sage!"

"Yes, that's truly putting the well-being of all beings first!"

"It's just a pity that I'm a Demon Race, and now that I've submitted to the Heavenly Court, I can't join this Jie Sect!"

"Let's go to Kunlun Mountain!"

Let's go! To the Kunlun Mountain!

"..."

In an instant, the Primordial Wilderness Land became incredibly lively.

Countless creatures flew straight towards the direction of Kunlun Mountain.

Moreover, among these creatures, there are those with fur and horns, as well as those born from eggs in wet environments; dragons and snakes are mixed together.

Since Sage recruit disciples, everyone naturally longs to join the Jie Sect.

"Hahaha! How spectacular! This time, the number of disciples of my Jie Sect will surely increase countless times!" The Cult Master Tongtian calculated with his fingers and sensed the unusual movements of countless Primordial Wilderness creatures, and couldn't help but laugh loudly.

A surge of heroic spirit filled me!

"How boring!"

Lin Yunji pursed his lips and muttered under his breath.

"You brat, what's with the boredom? As I strengthen the Jie Sect, you'll have more junior brothers and sisters. Wouldn't that be wonderful?" Cult Master Tongtian said to Lin Yunji with a hint of annoyance.

"What's so good about it! You still want to recruit more disciples so I can discipline them and avoid bothering you all the time, right?" Lin Yunji seemed to have known about the Cult Master Tongtian's little scheme all along.

Hearing that Lin Yunji had exposed his thoughts, even the Cult Master Tongtian blushed slightly. He cleared his throat and said, "You brat, stop talking nonsense in front of me! This is how the Jie Sect's doctrine is. How could your master be as sinister as you think?"

Lin Yunji didn't waste any more words with him. Instead, he found a large rock nearby and lay down on it without caring about his image.

The Cult Master Tongtian raised an eyebrow and sneered, "Once I have countless disciples, I will divide them into personal disciples, inner disciples, and outer disciples."

"At that time, you only need to teach your personal disciples, who can then teach the inner disciple, and so on!"

How about this?

"I don't really care. I'm happy to teach them if I'm in a good mood," Lin Yunji shrugged.

"You brat!"

Seeing that Lin Yunji was completely unmoved, the Cult Master Tongtian was quite annoyed. He could only glare at him fiercely before turning his eyes away, wanting to avoid seeing him and getting to the point of being annoyed.

"Splash!"

After a long time, beings began to arrive at Kunlun Mountain one after another, wanting to join the Jie Sect and become disciples of the Cult Master Tongtian.

The Cult Master Tongtian warmly welcomed their arrival and accepted them all into his fold.

However, he made it clear beforehand.

Because there are many disciples and the people are quite diverse, it is necessary to categorize them.

So, as he had previously told Lin Yunji, he divided the beings who came here into personal disciples, inner disciple, and outer disciples.

Aside from Daoist Duobao, four others were fortunate enough to become inner disciple: Holy Mother Wudang, Holy Mother Jinling, Holy Mother Guiling, and Daoist Zhao Gongming.

There were more than a dozen inner disciple, including Immortal Jing u and Immortal Wuyun.

In the eyes of the Cult Master Tongtian, Lin Yunji was not only his disciple but also his closest relative.

If Lin Yunji were classified as a direct disciple, on the same level as Daoist Duobao, even Cult Master Tongtian himself would feel uneasy.

Therefore, although Lin Yunji was not among these disciples, he was completely superior to these newly initiated disciples of the Jie Sect.

For example, even though Daoist Duobao was a direct disciple, he was still very afraid of Lin Yunji.

While the Kunlun Mountain were bustling with activity, three more figures gracefully arrived at the Kunlun Mountain.

They all had delicate features, and the three beings even shared a seven-tenths resemblance in appearance, but their temperaments were distinct: one was cute and lively, one was gentle and graceful, and one was aloof and holy.

These three are none other than the Three Xiao Sisters!

"Wow! Big sister, second sister! Look! There are so many creatures here! Some of them are species I didn't even recognize!"

While still in the air, Bixiao couldn't wait to grab the hems of the other two's clothes.

Bixiao blinked her big eyes and looked down, her face full of curiosity!
