To be the best leader, you must also be the strongest leader!

The next day, as a melodious bell sound spread throughout the Qingyun Sect, rays of light rose from various parts of the Qingyun Sect and flew directly towards the back mountain of the Qingyun Sect.

Behind the main peak of Qingyun Sect is a large mountain range with many strange peaks.

The Battle Soul Mausoleum was built against the mountain. Elder Jin Jue directly arranged for people to hollow out the entire mountain, built a large number of tombs inside, and also used formations to reinforce it. It was built with great care.

The entrance to the mausoleum was built into an ancient pavilion with a staircase outside that connects to a huge square in front.

A huge stone tablet stands in the center of the square, with dragons carved on both sides, prints on the top, and a huge lotus base underneath.

There is a huge sacrificial bronze tripod in front of the stone tablet. Three ten-foot-long soul-gathering incense sticks are burning in the tripod. These three soul-gathering incense sticks alone are worth tens of thousands of spirit stones.

Rays of light descended from the sky and landed directly on the square, then came to the front of the Battle Spirit Monument. Looking at the more than one hundred names engraved on the Battle Spirit Monument, the expressions of the disciples present were a little gloomy.

Under Sun Yi's reforms, Qingyun Sect has gradually become a more humane sect, with fewer conflicts among fellow disciples.

In the past, cultivators with high-quality spiritual roots would look down on cultivators with low-quality spiritual roots, but this situation no longer exists.

More and more monks came to the square, but unlike before when they gathered in the central square, everyone was very conscious and kept quiet.

After a while, almost all the disciples of the sect had arrived.

Suddenly, several powerful auras came from afar. The disciples in the square looked up and saw Sun Yi flying over with five Jindan stage elders and Er Gouzi, and then landed in front of the Battle Spirit Monument.

"Meet the Sect Leader, meet the Deputy Sect Leader, and meet the five elders!"

"My fellow disciples, there's no need to be so polite. Not long ago, our Qingyun Sect was attacked by the Black Wind Village. Although we were able to repel the evil cultivators from the Black Wind Village, many of our fellow disciples sacrificed their precious lives to protect our sect."

"I don't care what other sects think of their disciples. In my Qingyun Sect, the lives of all disciples are more important than anything else!"

"Their sacrifice this time is a huge loss to our Qingyun Sect. Perhaps many of them have low-quality spiritual roots, but in my heart, they are just as important as geniuses with top-grade spiritual roots."

"Although they have sacrificed their lives, you and I must remember that they used their lives to protect us and the sect."

"We must carry on their legacy and strive to strengthen the sect, making Qingyun Sect better and better, so that the souls of our fellow disciples in the Battle Soul Mausoleum can see that their sacrifice was not in vain."

"Today, I will lead everyone in seeing off these esteemed fellow disciples."

Ergouzi next to him directly gave Sun Yi a stick of incense and then stepped aside.

Holding a stick of incense, Sun Yi walked to the front of the sacrificial bronze tripod, raised the incense with both hands, and bowed forward.

"Thank you for protecting the sect!"

The Jindan stage elders and cultivators behind him followed Sun Yi and bowed towards the front.

"Thank you for protecting the sect!" A huge voice echoed through the valley.

Sun Yi then bowed again: "We will definitely carry on your legacy!"

The people behind him continued with the second bow, and at the same time, a huge wave of sound resounded through the valley again.

Sun Yi then bowed for the third time: "We will do our utmost to develop the sect and will not let you down."

The elders and disciples behind him also bowed for the third time, and then repeated what Sun Yi had said, and the huge sound waves resounded around again.

Sun Yi inserted the incense stick in his hand into the sacrificial bronze tripod, then stepped back and faced everyone.

"From now on, all disciples who have made contributions to the sect will be buried in the Battle Soul Mausoleum, and their names will be engraved on the Battle Soul Monument. The sect will do its utmost to take care of their relatives and descendants. The sect will not let down anyone who has made contributions to the sect."

"From now on, the sect will hold a small sacrifice every ten years and a large sacrifice every hundred years. No one from the entire sect is allowed to be absent without reason!"

"As ordered!"

Sun Yi's eyes swept across the faces of the people in the square. Although it was just a simple sacrifice, the mentality of the disciples present had changed again through this sacrifice. Their sense of belonging to the sect and their loyalty to the sect had been significantly improved.

"Alright, let's all go back and train hard. The last war was just the beginning, and there are many more challenges waiting for us."

Sun Yi waved his hand, and then led everyone away from the Battle Soul Tomb.

In the following time, Sun Yi was busy practicing miscellaneous arts while helping the five elders open up five gates. He was as busy as a top.

After half a month, Sun Yi's alchemy skills were improved to the third level. This speed of progress made Elder Ye Luo praise Sun Yi as a genius.

Sun Yi knew very well in his heart that the reason why his alchemy skills could improve so quickly was mainly because he practiced the art of splitting the spirit, possessed eight spirits, and had very strong learning and research abilities, as well as control abilities.

Another reason is that the auxiliary effect of Purple Extreme Crazy Flame on miscellaneous arts is too strong. In addition, Sun Yi has read a lot of experiences of various predecessors and specially asked Qixinglou to purchase some miscellaneous arts classics.

If such good conditions cannot lead to such a speed of improvement, it only proves that Sun Yi is a waste.

At this time, Sun Yi was concentrating on carving talismans in the Talisman Hall. A palm-sized piece of animal skin talisman paper was floating in front of him. Sun Yi held a talisman pen in his hand, poured his true energy into the talisman pen, and was slowly drawing.

Elder Ye Luo, including several senior officials from the Talisman Hall, stood by and watched nervously.

This was Sun Yi's third attempt to carve a third-level talisman. The previous two attempts had both ended in failure. Only after successfully carving this third-level talisman could Sun Yi be officially promoted to a third-level talisman master.

The tip of the talisman pen moved across the talisman paper, leaving a trail of crimson lines, which gradually formed a firebird pattern.

However, as the patterns became more and more, the spiritual energy on the talisman paper fluctuated more and more violently, as if the power inside was about to burst out uncontrollably.

Elder Ye Luo and the others watched very nervously, because this step was too difficult, and many talisman makers were stuck at this level.

Suddenly, a gleam of light flashed in Sun Yi's eyes, and a vast amount of spiritual power surged out, directly wrapping the talisman paper. The violent spiritual energy was immediately completely suppressed by Sun Yi.

Then Sun Yi continued to carve with all his strength. As the last stroke was put down, the talisman paper in front of him suddenly burst into a red light. At the same time, a powerful spiritual energy wave emanated, and the violent aura also became stable.

"Success!"

"Congratulations, Master, on your promotion to the third-rank Talisman Maker!"

The people nearby couldn't help but cheer when they saw Sun Yi successfully create a third-level talisman.

"Thank you all for your help."

Sun Yi smiled and looked at the third-level Fire Bird Talisman in his hand. Although it was still a bit rough, it was a genuine third-level talisman after all, which meant that he had successfully been promoted to a third-level talisman maker.
