Longevity: Starting with an infant's innate growth potential

Chapter 366 Thunder Dragon Seal and Sect Orthodoxy

"You are now the Sect Master of the Lingxiao Sect, so you can just sit in this position!"

Zi Ling Fairy waved her hand and sat down next to Zhou Ling in the elder's seat.

Zhou Ling then sat down.

"Master, I'm not just preparing for this competition!"

Fang Yuyun said with a smile.

With a gentle wave of her hand, a purple jade gourd appeared in front of her. Holding the gourd, she smiled at Fairy Ziling and said, "Master, this is a fourth-grade Purple Light Brew."

"But this disciple found it with great difficulty."

"I'll keep it to honor you, Master!"

"Purple light is brewing!"

Upon hearing this, Fairy Ziling waved her hand, and the purple jade gourd flew into her hand.

The gourd lid was then opened immediately.

A rich aroma of wine immediately filled the air.

"Not bad!"

Fairy Ziling gulped down a large mouthful and praised it.

"Master, this is a blend of Grade 4 Purple Light Spirit Rice and Thousand-Year Purple Cloud Spring, brewed by a Grade 4 winemaker."

Fang Yuyun introduced with a smile.

"Ok!"

Fairy Ziling took another big gulp.

Then he turned to Zhou Ling and asked, "Ling'er, how did your discussion with your two senior sisters go?"

“Master, we are discussing this matter.”

"Just now, I and my two senior sisters finalized the battle plan against the Nascent Soul cultivators from the Purple Cloud Sect."

"Senior Sister is dealing with Qin Ji."

"Second Senior Sister's opponent is Zhang Yuhu."

"Leave the rest of Liu Polei to me!"

Chen Ling answered truthfully.

"You want to deal with Liu Polei?"

Upon hearing this, Fairy Ziling put down the purple jade gourd and raised her eyebrows.

She was naturally aware of Liu Polei's strength.

Although Zhou Ling killed the Fire Dragon Sparrow Demon King, it was mostly thanks to the Purple Cauldron Warship and the battle formation.

There are no fifth-tier warships available for those heading to the Zixiao Sect for the competition.

How could Zhou Ling be a match for Liu Polei?

Although they knew that Zhou Ling's cultivation had progressed rapidly during this period, the competition between the two sects was not the same as the competition between the academies.

It was a life-or-death battle.

One wrong move and you're dead.

Of course, she still recognized Zhou Ling's sense of responsibility.

After all, as the leader of a sect, he could not back down in the face of battle.

He immediately shook his head and said, "This kind of battle seems reasonable. We won't be without a chance of winning just because of the difference in strength."

"But facing Liu Polei is too risky. If he goes all out, even if you manage a draw, this battle will be meaningless!"

"Master, I was just reminding my junior brother that I should deal with Liu Polei!"

Jin Yun cupped her hands in greeting.

She was relatively steady in nature and had always strongly advocated that she deal with Liu Polei.

However, Zhou Ling rejected him.

After thinking for a moment, Fairy Ziling said, "You are more suitable to deal with Zhang Yuhu. At the very least, you can fight her to a draw."

"Yu Yun used a magic array to deal with Liu Polei, which actually allowed her to maintain a draw."

"While the outcome of Ling'er's fight against Qin Ji is uncertain, it is still a more reliable option than dealing with Liu Polei."

Zhou Ling possesses five fourth-grade Five Elements Spirit Flames, giving him the strength to challenge Nascent Soul cultivators.

In addition, there's the Purple-Gold Thunder Seal of the Refining Inspection Division.

Therefore, in her opinion, dealing with Qin Ji was still within her capabilities.

In this way, Fang Yuyun can hold off Liu Polei while Zhou Ling deals with Qin Ji.

Jin Yun also has a relatively higher winning percentage against Zhang Yuhu.

Overall, the Lingxiao Sect actually has a better chance of winning.

Upon hearing their master's words, Jin Yun and Fang Yuyun both nodded, clearly having no objections.

He was simply curious, and it was clear that his master had no worries about Zhou Ling's handling of Qin Ji.

It should be noted that Qin Ji's strength is not much less than Liu Polei's.

"Master, I still believe that I should deal with Liu Polei!"

Zhou Ling insisted.

During this period of time, through the [Illusionary Realm Simulation], he has gained a great understanding of Liu Polei's strength.

While victory is not guaranteed, survival is absolutely assured.

"Hmm!? Fourth-tier body refinement? You've also made considerable progress in the Thunder Rules?"

Zi Ling Fairy scanned Zhou Ling with her divine sense and nodded with satisfaction.

She also knew that Zhou Ling cultivated the Eight Extremes Immortal Thunder Technique and that he himself possessed an acquired thunder body.

Facing Liu Polei would also be a good challenge.

Even if he is defeated, his strength will definitely be improved.

Zhou Ling's ability to reach the fourth level of body refinement in such a short time was still somewhat unexpected to her.

Upon hearing this, Jin Yun and the others also showed surprise.

Although they were at the Nascent Soul stage, they wouldn't be able to tell unless Zhou Ling used his blood energy.

Therefore, all that was known was that Zhou Ling was at the early stage of the Golden Core realm, but no one expected that his body refinement had reached a terrifying fourth level.

This is an incredibly terrifying cultivation speed.

At the age of twenty, being at the early stage of the Golden Core realm is already quite monstrous.

Now comes an even more terrifying fourth-order body refinement technique.

"This is because I refined the Fire Dragon Sparrow Demon Core!"

Zhou Ling said with a smile.

Although the fifth-rank jade seal also played a significant role.

But overall, it was mainly the result of the fusion of the Fire Dragon Sparrow Demon Core.

"Alright, since you're confident, then I'll listen to you!"

Upon hearing this, Fairy Ziling nodded.

"However, if there is danger, just admit defeat!"

Fairy Ziling gave further instructions.

"Yes, Master!"

Zhou Ling replied.

The results of the competition have been determined.

Jin Yun and the others then inquired about their cultivation progress with Fairy Zi Ling.

Fairy Ziling answered them one by one.

Having refined a fifth-grade jade seal during this period, Zhou Ling's understanding of the rules of thunder has also increased.

She also asked Fairy Ziling about the rules of thunder.

Zi Ling Fairy answered each question, which greatly benefited Zhou Ling's comprehension of the Eight Extremes Immortal Thunder Technique.

Many even felt a sense of sudden enlightenment.

This is one of the benefits of having a teacher.

I avoided taking a lot of detours.

"The Zixiao Sect possesses a fine thunder treasure. If we can defeat them this time, this thunder treasure will belong to us."

"It can be used as a treasure to protect the clan!"

Fairy Ziling said with a smile.

"Master, what kind of treasure is it?"

Zhou Ling couldn't help but ask out of curiosity.

Something that a master would consider a treasure of the sect is definitely extraordinary.

"Thunder Dragon Seal!"

"There were originally two pieces of this Thunderous Dragon Roar, one in my possession and the other in the possession of the Purple Cloud Sect."

"Whoever loses this battle shall hand over the Thunder Dragon Seal."

"Let them merge into a complete sixth-grade superior treasure!"

"It was Zi Ling Fairy who said calmly."

"Sixth-grade superior quality".

Upon hearing this, Zhou Ling and the others couldn't help but gasp slightly in surprise.

I never expected that this competition would involve such an important bet.

It should be noted that even within the entire Dao Alliance, treasures of the sixth rank or higher are extremely rare.

Surprisingly, the Zixiao Sect possessed a sixth-grade high-quality treasure.

This shows just how amazing its foundation is.

"This Thunder Dragon Seal is not just a sixth-tier treasure; it also contains a small grotto-heaven with the inheritances of many sects."

"Once obtained, disciples can enter it to train and acquire the sect's inheritance." "There are several Heavenly Grade cultivation techniques inside."

"It's just that over the years, our two sects have each held a Thunder Dragon Seal, which has prevented us from opening this cave heaven."

Fairy Ziling then introduced herself to everyone.

Upon hearing this, everyone was even more shocked.

A sixth-tier treasure capable of condensing a grotto-heaven.

Its value is immeasurable.

Surprisingly, it also contains many of the inheritances of the Zixiao Sect, and even some Heavenly Grade cultivation techniques.

And there are several of them.

Zhou Ling believed that the battle was worth fighting for just this Thunder Dragon Seal.

Once the Thunder Dragon Seal is obtained, the strength of the Lingxiao Sect will increase exponentially.

"The method for further cultivating your Eight Extremes Immortal Thunder Technique is also contained within this Thunder Dragon Seal."

Zi Ling Fairy continued speaking to Zhou Ling.

Zhou Ling's eyes burned brightly, and with the fusion of the fifth-grade jade seal, his thunder rule also greatly improved.

The Eight Extremes Immortal Thunder Technique is capable of simultaneously condensing four immortal thunderbolts, which means that the immortal thunderbolts have reached the power of a Nascent Soul cultivator.

If the five paths are combined, that is the power of a Nascent Soul cultivator.

The Six Paths are the refinement of emptiness, accumulated in this way.

The Eight Paths are comparable to Mahayana cultivators.

It has been many years since the Dao Alliance has produced a cultivator at the Mahayana realm.

Not to mention Mahayana Buddhism, even the state of attaining the Dao is almost nonexistent.

The nine high-ranking members who lead the Dao Alliance are all at the Refinement of Emptiness realm.

Of course, Zhou Ling was just thinking about these things, and they didn't really concern him much.

If there is a chance to obtain the follow-up techniques of the Eight Extremes Immortal Thunder Technique, then naturally we should try our best to obtain them.

Moreover, there is also the "Five Elements Qianyang Technique," which he also needs to cultivate further.

Therefore, obtaining the Thunder Dragon Seal would be of great significance to him.

After all, it's extremely difficult to acquire other Five Elements cultivation techniques!
Even if it exists, he would need to spend a huge amount of money to renovate it.

The subsequent techniques of this "Five Elements Qianyang Technique" can be seamlessly connected.

"That's not all. Whoever wins this competition will be the rightful heir of the Zixiao Sect."

"So the opponent definitely won't hold back, you all need to go all out to deal with them!"

Fairy Ziling spoke with a rare serious expression.

"Yes, Master!"

"Yes, Master!"

Zhou Ling and the other two bowed in unison and replied.

For a sect, orthodox status is extremely important.

With legitimate status, the resources obtained from the Dao Alliance will be vastly different.

Although the Lingxiao Sect has been rebuilt now.

However, it can only be considered a part of the Zixiao Sect.

Within the Dao Alliance, they have not yet received the treatment befitting a legitimate sect.

Therefore, this battle is absolutely crucial for the Lingxiao Sect.

With the Thunder Dragon Seal and the reward of legitimate status, their fighting spirit was even stronger.

“Ling’er, the jade seal awarded by the Dao Alliance this time is actually equivalent to a small Five Elements Dao Temple.”

"It was probably Chen Zhenglei who painstakingly had it tailor-made for you."

"If you use it as a place for cultivation, your cultivation progress will be even faster in the future."

At this moment, Fairy Ziling spoke to Zhou Ling again.

"Five Elements Dojo!"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Ling was taken aback. Since the Five Elements Spiritual Veins were fused by his master, he had not discovered the existence of a Five Elements Dao Field within the jade seal.

"Master, how do I enter this temple?"

Zhou Ling took out the Five Elements Jade Seal and asked aloud.

"Once you refine it, you will be able to sense the existence of this Five Elements Dao Field and enter it on your own!"

"That's what Fairy Ziling said."

"Thank you, Master!"

Zhou Ling nodded in reply.

He was extremely grateful to Chen Zhenglei.

He knew that if it weren't for Chen Zhenglei's help, this Five Elements Jade Seal would not have been so compatible with him.

This is a Five Elements Daoist Temple, which contains abundant spiritual energy of the five elements.

Moreover, he also possesses the power of the Five Elements, which is something he currently lacks.

Of course, the rules of the Five Elements cannot be grasped so quickly.

But at least, he now has his first fifth-order spiritual vein cultivation site, and he can carry it with him at all times.

However, it needs to be refined before that.

This is also quite difficult.

After all, he could refine the rule jade seal with the help of a demon core.

Of course, we can also use the demon core this time, but we'll have the demon core refine the Five Elements Jade Seal.

That would consume too much energy.

Zhou Ling planned to use the Five Elements Spirit Flame to refine it.

After all, the Five Elements Spirit Flame is already at the fourth grade.

Among them, the Qianyang True Fire and the Azure Lotus Spirit Flame are both at the mid-stage of the fourth rank.

The five spiritual flames combined were enough to refine the Five Elements Jade Seal.

Moreover, the Five Elements Spiritual Veins within have already been introduced by the master into the Zhou family's underground spiritual veins.

Therefore, refining it will be much easier.

Of course, there are also certain risks.

If not handled carefully, the jade seal may be damaged.

We'll suffer a huge loss then.

After all, there is a fifth-order magic array plate on the jade seal.

With the jade seal destroyed, the array plate was naturally destroyed as well.

Even if it bursts, it could pose a significant risk to oneself.

After all, this is a fifth-tier treasure.

He didn't dare to be careless and asked his master about some refining methods.

After all, Master had already drawn out the spiritual veins within it and had gained considerable control over the Five Elements Jade Seal, knowing its contents.

"This Five Elements Dao Field is primarily based on spatial attributes, so you will also need to use spatial power as an aid when refining it!"

"This will better ensure stability!"

"If there is no spatial power, then we will use the Azure Lotus Spirit Flame to assist in the refining process, with the other four spirit flames as supplements."

Zi Ling Fairy said this to Zhou Ling.

She knew that Zhou Ling possessed five spiritual flames, but she wasn't entirely sure how far those flames had grown.

After all, each spirit flame, once it reaches a certain grade, will condense into corresponding attribute supernatural power.

Zhou Ling didn't use it, so naturally she wouldn't know.

"Disciple understands!"

Zhou Ling cupped his hands in reply.

Among the five spiritual flames, the Earth Spirit Fire possesses certain spatial attributes.

It's perfect for refining this Five Elements Jade Seal.

"Five Paths of Five Elements Spiritual Flames!"

Hearing Zhou Ling's conversation with his master, Fang Yuyun and the others all looked on with envy.

One fourth-grade spirit flame is enough to shock people, but Zhou Ling actually has five.

Now they understood why their master trusted him so much.

"Junior brother has so many good things at such a young age. I can't help but envy him."

"How about we strengthen our family ties by marrying each other? You can marry my senior sister too, how about that?"

Fang Yuyun said to Zhou Ling with a smile.

"How can you act like a senior sister!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he was glared at by Fairy Ziling.

"Master, now that this matter is settled, your disciple will get you a few more jars of Grade Four Spirit Wine!"

Fang Yuyun said in a low voice.

Fairy Ziling ignored her.

Subsequently, Fairy Ziling appointed Jin Yun as the First Elder and Fang Yuyun as the Second Elder.

As for their disciples, each of them manages a separate area.

Sutra repositories, temples, etc.

Zhou Ling left first because he had to attend the Immortal City Celebration.

The departure time for the Zixiao Sect has been set; they will set off in half a month.

······.
