The female supporting character in the cultivation world only wants to grow flowers and become stron

Back at their base, the disciples were still busy counting the corpses. Lin Yitang and the others took a short rest within the defensive formation.

She sat on a blue stone, lost in thought.

After some thought, she gradually sorted out her thoughts. If she wanted to find out the truth about why the third-tier demon beast was released from the central area, she had to go to the central area to investigate. However, only disciples at the Foundation Establishment stage or above could enter the central area; these inner and outer disciples at the Qi Refining stage obviously could not accompany her.

What reason should be used to enter the middle round?

Just as she was pondering, the counting work by the disciples was also nearing its end.

The leading disciple looked around and said in a deep voice, "Everyone, we have reported the situation here to the sect. As this place is an important connection between the middle and outer perimeters, in order to prevent the beast tide from breaking out again, the sect hopes that all of us can stay here together, including inner disciples, outer disciples, and fellow Daoists who have come to support us."

Upon hearing this, the three disciples present exchanged bewildered glances.

Although some conflicts arose due to misunderstandings in the past, the problems have now been resolved, and cooperation is indeed the right thing to do now in order to jointly resist the beast tide.

However, at that moment, a male cultivator dressed in outer sect robes suddenly stepped forward, cupped his hands in greeting, and said, "I am one of the disciples who came to provide support. I just heard the steward mention the situation in the central perimeter. Unfortunately, my senior sister happens to be stationed there. I am truly worried about her safety. May I ask if I may go to the central perimeter to visit her under the guise of delivering a message?"

Upon hearing this, the disciple in charge lingered his gaze on him for a moment, then nodded slightly and said, "You must be the leader of the group that came to provide support, right? There has been no news yet about the situation in the central area, but since you have this concern, I will not stop you."

"only……"

He paused, his tone becoming serious. "However, the sect has a rule that only disciples at the Foundation Establishment stage or above can go to the central area. With your current cultivation level, going alone is far too dangerous; you could easily lose your life. Only a Foundation Establishment disciple leading the team can protect your safety."

The male cultivator's heart tightened, and he gritted his teeth inwardly. It seemed that the new task Senior Sister Ye had given him was not simple either.

Forget about taking people to Zhongwei, he even has difficulty going there himself. What should he do now?

Just as he was at his wit's end, Lin Yitang suddenly stepped forward. She cupped her hands to the disciples in charge and said sincerely, "Esteemed disciples, I am Lin Yitang from Thousand Peaks. I am also worried about the situation in the central area. Perhaps I can accompany this fellow Daoist to do my part."

The disciple in charge was taken aback, seemingly not expecting Lin Yitang to volunteer.

He pondered for a moment, his gaze sweeping over Lin Yitang and the male cultivator, before slowly saying, "Junior Sister Lin, although your cultivation is high, the middle area is extremely dangerous. Are you confident?"

Lin Yitang smiled and said, "Don't worry, Your Excellency, I know what I'm doing. With me here, I will definitely protect this fellow Daoist."

The disciple in charge nodded, then turned to the male cultivator and said, "Since Junior Sister Lin is willing to lead the way, then you two are permitted to proceed to the central area. However, the central area is teeming with demonic beasts, so remember not to wander around carelessly to avoid getting separated. The Endless Forest is fraught with dangers, so be sure to follow Junior Sister Lin's lead."

The male cultivator was taken aback, seemingly not expecting things to go so smoothly. He quickly bowed and thanked her, but then a disciple rushed forward and said to the steward disciple, "Steward, you can't! Although Senior Sister Lin's cultivation is high, she hasn't broken through to the Foundation Establishment stage yet. Going to the central area would be suicide!"

Because Lin Yitang was there to suppress the outer beast tide and provide support from all directions, many disciples, both inner and outer, were rescued. They were filled with gratitude and admiration for Lin Yitang, so unknowingly everyone centered their attention around him and cared about his safety.

However, the disciple in charge frowned slightly, looked at the disciple with a strange expression, and asked in return, "Why not? Junior Sister Lin's cultivation is quite remarkable. In our eyes, she is already at the peak of the early Foundation Establishment stage, which fully meets the requirements for going to the middle area."

The disciple looked anxious: "But Senior Sister Lin clearly hasn't broken through to the Foundation Establishment stage yet... Could it be that the steward has misread it?"

The disciple in charge shook his head and chuckled, "Mistaken? Although we don't have the same eyesight as the elders, we can still distinguish between the Foundation Establishment and Qi Refining stages. Your Senior Sister Lin's cultivation is already on par with ours."

Upon hearing this, both inner and outer disciples present were taken aback.

Lin Yitang smiled and said helplessly, "I'm sorry everyone, it was wrong of me to keep it from you. Actually, I had already broken through to the Foundation Establishment stage, but I just hadn't told anyone. It's normal that you can't tell my cultivation level."

Upon hearing this, the disciples realized that Lin Yitang was not actually in the Qi Refining stage, but rather at the peak of the early Foundation Establishment stage. With the presence of a steward disciple as a witness, they had no choice but to believe it, even if they dared not.

The next second, the crowd erupted in cheers.

Everyone started discussing it animatedly. They couldn't believe that Lin Yitang, who had just won the title of the strongest Qi Refining disciple of the Taique Sect a few months ago, had actually broken through to the Foundation Establishment stage!

This is huge news for the sect! If it weren't for the current beast tide, the sect would probably be spreading the news far and wide.

What's most noteworthy is that he not only broke through the Foundation Establishment stage, but also reached the peak of the early Foundation Establishment stage!

In other words, Senior Sister Lin did not just break through, but had already broken through for some time and was about to reach the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment before informing everyone!

In an instant, everyone felt a mix of emotions.

Not long ago, Ye Qiuli of Danfu Peak broke through to the Foundation Establishment stage, shocking the cultivation world. Those who could break through to the Foundation Establishment stage before the age of twenty were considered top-tier geniuses in the entire world's history, let alone Ye Qiuli, who was only sixteen. However, now it is even more terrifying to learn that Lin Yitang, also sixteen, has already reached the peak of the early Foundation Establishment stage.

The cultivation world could never have imagined that the Taique Sect would produce a cultivator with even greater talent than Ye Qiuli! Everyone thought Ye Qiuli was going to become a prominent figure, but Lin Yitang is even more outstanding. Now, who dares to say that Lin Yitang is inferior to Ye Qiuli? Judging by their breakthrough times, Lin Yitang will probably achieve it even earlier!

In an instant, the entire base was plunged into an indescribable shock.

"Peak of the early Foundation Establishment stage... Senior Sister Lin has actually reached the peak of the early Foundation Establishment stage!"

"This... how is this possible? Senior Sister Lin has actually broken through to the Foundation Establishment stage, but she has never announced it to the outside world."

"My God! Reaching the peak of the early Foundation Establishment stage at the age of sixteen, this is simply an unheard-of genius! I have never seen such a monstrous talent before! He is probably rare even in the entire cultivation world!"

"How could such an extraordinary person exist in the world? This has completely shattered my understanding of cultivation!"

The crowd chattered amongst themselves, their voices rising and falling. Excitement was written on everyone's face; after all, the more talented Lin Yitang was, the more it proved that the Taique Sect was no weaker than the Tianyan Sect.

Meanwhile, a man in the crowd had a dark expression.

The man was the male cultivator who was planning to head to the central perimeter. At this moment, he was anxious. He had originally intended to bring Lin Yitang to the central perimeter as Senior Sister Ye had requested, but he never expected to learn of this earth-shattering news.

Unexpectedly, Lin Yitang had already reached the Foundation Establishment stage! And even stronger than Senior Sister Ye! He had to report to Senior Sister Ye immediately and inform everyone on Danfu Peak about this matter.
