Chapter 14152 Ahri is definitely the best
The man in the green robe continued, "After she accepts the inheritance, will you allow her to rebuild the Sea God Palace's lineage in your world?"

"The Palace of the Sea God was once glorious, but now it has fallen to such a state. I hope she can bring the glory of the Palace of the Sea God back to this world."

"And the world you live in may be a new beginning."

Ling Xiao's heart jolted, as if a thunderclap had exploded in his mind.

This is no small matter. Establishing a sect means bearing a heavy responsibility, needing to protect everyone in the sect; it means having a vast amount of resources, from cultivation techniques to magical treasures and elixirs, all of which require careful preparation; and it also means countless conflicts, with various forces eyeing the sect covetously, and open and covert attacks that are impossible to guard against...

However, his gaze involuntarily fell upon the tightly closed stone door.

The stone gate was heavy and ancient, seemingly separating two worlds, but it could not sever his longing for his sister.

He pictured his sister's pure eyes, like clear lake water, without a trace of impurity, filled with longing and anticipation for the future.

Then he thought about his younger sister's possible future after receiving the inheritance. Perhaps she would embark on a glorious path of cultivation, become a powerful figure who would dominate the region, and restore the former glory of the Sea God Palace...

"can!"

Ling Xiao took a deep breath and answered decisively, his voice resounding like a great bell.

His eyes were unwavering, like two burning flames illuminating the path ahead. "However, senior, I cannot guarantee what height the Sea God Palace will reach in the future."

"The world is ever-changing, and the path of cultivation is full of unknowns and challenges. It may encounter countless difficulties and obstacles, making the development of the Sea God Palace extremely difficult."

"Furthermore, there is no guarantee that it will never deteriorate. Human hearts are fickle, and as time goes by, greed and desire may erode the foundation of the Sea God Palace."

"But what I can guarantee is that as long as I live, I will do everything in my power to protect Ah Li and the lineage she founded!"

"Even if there are mountains of knives and seas of fire ahead, even if I have to be at odds with the whole world, I will never back down, and I will never let such villains tarnish the name of the Sea God Palace!"

The voice of the illusory man in the green robe seemed to soften slightly, and a touch of warmth appeared in his originally cold and indifferent tone: "She has obtained the core inheritance of my Sea God Palace and is also aided by the bloodline of the Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox. Her future is limitless."

"This core inheritance is the crystallization of the wisdom of countless ancestors of the Sea God Palace, containing endless mysteries and power; and the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox bloodline is an extremely powerful bloodline that is rare in the world, possessing infinite possibilities."

"As long as she maintains her Daoist heart and adheres to her beliefs and principles, her future achievements will surely surpass yours."

Ling Xiao curled his lip, secretly thinking: Are all the seniors these days blind?
Why can't you see the facts right in front of you?

He never denied Ah Li's talent. Ah Li was clever and quick-witted, and had unwavering perseverance, giving her a unique advantage in cultivation.

But compared to him, who possesses the Overlord Martial Soul, Ahri's talent is nothing.

That Overlord Martial Soul was his unique reliance, containing world-destroying power, and was a rare and peerless martial soul in the world.

However, he was too lazy to explain such things.

Everyone has their own opinions and judgments, so there's no point in saying more.

So he just grinned, a bright and confident smile, his eyes brimming with pride: "Of course! Ahri is definitely the best!"

His gaze was fixed intently on the stone door, as if it were a thin sheet of paper through which he could see Ah Li inside if he concentrated.

He secretly vowed in his heart that he would do everything in his power to protect her.

Whether it's the trivial troubles of life or the hardships and obstacles on the path of cultivation, he will always stand in front of Ah Li, sheltering her from the wind and rain.

But he understood even more that true protection was not about sheltering her under his wings, but about empowering her to soar through the heavens!
The legacy of the Sea God Palace, combined with Ahri's talent, is undoubtedly a path to heaven!

As long as Ahri steadfastly continues down this path, she will surely shine brightly in the future and become a respected and powerful figure.

Time slowly passed as we waited, each minute and second seeming to stretch out and become incredibly long.

For Ling Xiao, three days and three nights felt like a long and arduous period of cultivation.

He stood guard outside the stone hall without leaving for a moment, his posture as upright as a pine tree, like the most loyal protector, steadfastly guarding Ahri who was receiving the inheritance inside the stone hall.

When he got hungry, he took out the dry rations he had prepared beforehand from his pocket. The rations were dry and tasteless, but he only took a few bites before focusing intently on guarding the stone hall again.
When he was thirsty, he would take out the water bag he carried with him, tilt his head back, and gulp down a few mouthfuls of water to moisten his parched throat.

Most of the time, he closed his eyes and regulated his breathing to keep his body and mind in the best possible condition.

However, his divine sense was constantly monitoring the subtle fluctuations within the stone hall, and even the slightest change in energy could not escape his perception.

He could faintly sense that the aura of the mysterious sea beast inside the hall was slowly merging with Ahri's aura.

At first, the fusion was like a gentle stream, soft and slow, as if two unfamiliar souls were cautiously exploring each other.

Ahri's aura carries a touch of liveliness and innocence, like the first ray of sunlight in the mountain forest at dawn;
The aura of the mysterious sea beast was ancient and profound, as if it contained the vicissitudes of countless years.

The two intertwined, yet maintained a certain distance.

But as time went on, this fusion gradually became turbulent, like surging waves crashing against reefs, making a deafening sound.

A vast and pure energy, like a river bursting its banks, surged forth from the mysterious sea beast's body, washing over Ahri's limbs and bones.

Wherever that energy reached, Ahri's skin glowed with a faint light, as if shrouded in a mysterious veil.

This energy continuously refined her meridians. Under the impact of this powerful energy, her originally narrow and weak meridians gradually became wider and stronger, like a widened river channel, capable of accommodating a more powerful flow of energy.

At the same time, it was also nourishing her bloodline power, making the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox bloodline in Ahri's body more and more active, faintly exuding a noble and mysterious aura.

Ling Xiao knew that the process would inevitably be accompanied by immense pain.

Ahri is like a phoenix engulfed in flames, enduring unimaginable torment in the baptism of energy.

His heart clenched again and again, as if the pain was acting on him.

His brows were furrowed, fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, and his hands unconsciously clenched into fists, his knuckles turning white from the force.
