Prospective Holy Maiden!
"Such powerful strength!"
Lin Ye could feel the terrifying power contained in his physical body. The physical body, which was the result of the combination of the near-perfect Undying Demonic Body Refining Technique Foundation Chapter, the perfected Gluttonous Taotie Swallowing Devil Cultivation Method and Gluttonous Taotie Swallowing Heaven Instruction Corpse Zombie Body Tempering Technique Body Refining Technique, was not comparable to that of an ordinary Grandmaster.
His physical strength is now far more terrifying than that of many peak Grandmaster. Coupled with his extremely formidable Innate True Qi and the accumulation of numerous martial arts techniques, his current strength is at least invincible among the Grandmaster Realm in the Chu Kingdom, second only to those Great Grandmaster.
Of course, outside of the Chu Kingdom, there are some Grandmaster have mastered Divine Art and Divine Ability Technique that he considers no match for, but only temporarily. Once these disciples break through to the Innate Realm, he can exchange Divine Art and Divine Ability Technique for them to cultivate, and he will directly receive ten times the feedback, with his strength instantly skyrocketing.
Among these disciples, Yang Yang will undoubtedly be the one who breaks through the fastest; he should be able to break through to the Innate Realm very soon.
"We need to let them out. Their cultivation has improved too quickly recently, and their foundations have become somewhat unstable. They should come back to stabilize their foundations."
Subsequently, Lin Ye mobilized the power of the Secret Realm Stone to teleport the five disciples out one by one, placing them all in the Black-Yellow Sect.
"Master, how did I get out? Give me a few more days, and I'll definitely be able to break through to the Innate Realm!" Yang Yang said.
"Your cultivation has improved too quickly. In the days to come, you should focus on studying martial arts, improving your skills, and stabilizing your foundation."
Lin Ye's words instantly brought the five disciples to their senses. Indeed, they had been consuming various spirit medicine and heavenly materials and earthly treasures these past few days, which had weakened their foundations. They definitely needed to recuperate.
"Yes, Master," everyone replied.
Supreme Simplicity Sect.
Dongfang Bai is currently practicing the Twelve Swords of Supreme Yin on Supreme Yin Peak. After a month of arduous training, he has mastered the Twelve Swords of Supreme Yin and has also raised his cultivation level to the Fourth Layer of the True Qi Realm.
His cultivation level improved so quickly thanks to the compensation from the Supreme Simplicity Sect, which allowed them to enter another secret realm, a treasure land in the fourth-order secret realm, to cultivate. Under the protection of several Grandmaster, he cultivated there for half a month. With the help of some pills, he was able to break through to the Fourth Layer of the True Qi Realm in one go.
"If Master had taken the secret realm, then my senior brother and junior brothers and sisters would probably be no less powerful than me now, or even far more powerful than me," Dongfang Bai thought to himself.
Supreme Simplicity Sect, inside Tai Su Palace.
Sect Master Huang Qin and the elders from each peak have all come here to discuss one thing: the selection of Prospective Holy Maiden. The Supreme Simplicity Sect is a women's sect, so it does not have Holy Sons, only Holy Maiden. Under normal circumstances, six Prospective Holy Maiden will be selected, and these six Prospective Holy Maiden will be nurtured with all their might to strive for the position of Holy Maiden.
The sect leader, Huang Qin, was the previous Holy Maiden. However, the Supreme Simplicity Sect has more than one Holy Maiden. Currently, the Supreme Simplicity Sect has two Holy Maiden. Every few years, another Holy Maiden will be selected, and finally, one of the Holy Maiden will be chosen to serve as the next sect leader.
Therefore, the selection process for the Holy Maiden is very strict, and it must be ensured that there are no problems in terms of qualifications, potential, and abilities.
A month has passed, and Huang Qin has recovered. She is no longer affected by the loss of the secret realm and the Spirit Stone. Even though the losses were heavy, they did not cause great damage to the foundation of the Supreme Simplicity Sect. As long as the Supreme Simplicity Sect can maintain a Great Grandmaster, it will remain a four-star Grandmaster in the Chu Kingdom and the most outstanding Grand Sect in the Chu Kingdom.
"This time, we are selecting a Prospective Holy Maiden. We will train another Holy Maiden within ten years. At that time, we will choose one of the three Holy Maiden to serve as the sect leader. After ten years, I will step down and devote all my efforts to breaking through to the Great Grandmaster Realm."
Huang Qin is now at the Ninth Layer of the Grandmaster Realm, very close to the Great Grandmaster Realm. In ten years, she should be able to reach the peak of the Ninth Layer of the Grandmaster Realm and be qualified to challenge the Great Grandmaster Realm. The current Great Grandmaster Xu Xi, does not have much life left, only about fifty years. She must break through to become Great Grandmaster within these fifty years.
Therefore, the selection of the Holy Maiden must be carried out as soon as possible.
She wasn't very optimistic about the two Holy Maiden of this generation. Their aptitude was decent, and they had both broken through to the Innate Realm Ninth Layer. Unfortunately, after many years of training, they hadn't had any great fortuitous opportunity. Breaking through to the Grandmaster Realm wouldn't be a problem, but without a great fortuitous opportunity, they would only ever reach the eighth or ninth level of the Grandmaster Realm, with almost no hope of reaching the Great Grandmaster Realm.
Therefore, she needs to select a new Holy Maiden. If the new Holy Maiden surpasses the previous two, she will choose the new Holy Maiden to serve as the sect leader.
"Lin Na, True Disciple, is only 25 years old this year and Fourth Layer of the Innate Realm. Her aptitude and cultivation are currently the highest among the True Disciple. Give her a spot Prospective Holy Maiden."
"It's fine to give it to her," Huang Qin agreed.
Afterwards, the elders read out the names one by one. When there was only one spot left, Li Xuansu stepped forward and said, "Dongfang Bai from my sect should be given a spot."
"Dongfang Bai, this woman is..." Huang Qin didn't know much about her; she seemed to have heard of her, but hadn't paid much attention.
Li Xuansu said, "Dongfang Bai is currently still inner disciple, and her cultivation level is slightly lower, but she is still at the Fourth Layer of the True Qi Realm. She is only a teenager, and most importantly, she has extremely high talent. She has only been practicing the Twelve Swords of Supreme Yin for a month, and she has already reached the Great Perfection level. Moreover, this girl is... perfect. Whether it is her temperament, aptitude, character, or potential, she is perfect."
At this moment, several elders chimed in, "Dongfang Bai, the disciple who performed flawlessly in the sect entrance assessment, right? I wanted to take her as a disciple, but unfortunately she entered Supreme Yin Peak."
"This girl is indeed perfect, almost flawless, and her aptitude is excellent. Moreover, she has broken through to the Fourth Layer of the True Qi Realm so quickly. Perhaps within one or two years, she has a chance to break through to the Innate Realm. Her cultivation is not a problem. Within ten years, she will definitely be able to break through to the high level of the Innate Realm, or even the Ninth Layer of the Innate Realm. She will not fall behind in terms of cultivation. At that time, with a little training, becoming Grandmaster will be no problem."
Seeing that several elders had given Dongfang Bai very high praise, Huang Qin became very interested in him and agreed to include Dongfang Bai in the list of Prospective Holy Maiden. Even if he underperformed later, there were still five other Prospective Holy Maiden to fall back on, so it wouldn't affect the Holy Maiden selection process.
"Alright, let's add Dongfang Bai to the six Prospective Holy Maiden. That settles the quota." Huang Qin concluded the meeting.
Supreme Yin Peak.
Li Xuansu immediately informed Dongfang Bai of the good news. Dongfang Bai was stunned, his expression somewhat blank. Li Xuansu assumed that Dongfang Bai was too shocked to react, so he stopped disturbing him and turned to leave.
After Li Xuansu left, Dongfang Bai gave a wry smile.
He only came to the Supreme Simplicity Sect as a spy, how did he end up becoming Prospective Holy Maiden? Is his next step going to be becoming the Holy Maiden and then the Sect Master? That would be too ridiculous!
Moreover, the more attention he receives, the greater the risk of exposure. His biggest problem is that he's a boy!
