Chapter 77: An Entire Year. No Breakthrough at All!Time flashed by. A year pa.s.sed in the blink of an eye.
Within the solitary confinement room, Lin Lei slowly opened his eyes.
After a year of hard training, the Voidwalker sword by Lin Lei"s side now had a total of 365 sword intents.
With the 365 sword intents supporting it, the power of the Voidwalker sword had reached an extremely terrifying level.
Even the Master of the Voidwalker sword, Lin Lei, would be shocked by its power.
However, it seemed as though Lin Lei"s cultivation level had once again reached a bottleneck. In the past year, Lin Lei hadn"t improved at all.
He hadn"t even broken through to become a half-step great sage, much less become one.
Lin Lei stared at the tiny window of the isolation room. The sapling that had once stood next to the isolation room had grown so tall.
For a moment, Lin Lei was in a daze.
After all, it had been seven years since Lin Lei had transmigrated to this magical world.
Today, the Li Fire sect was extremely lively. After all, today was the grand ceremony for the disciples of the Li Fire sect.
Anyone in the Empire who had a hint of magical talent could sign up and become a disciple of the Li Fire sect.
Although Lin Lei hadn"t made any progress in power in the past year, the Li Fire sect had improved quite a bit in the past year.
In the past year, Roderick had finally broken through the shackles of being a Grand Magus, becoming a tier 1 Grand Magus.
Counting the days, Roderick had trained for more than a hundred years. A few years ago, Roderick had already reached the level of a Grand Magus. Now that he was able to make a breakthrough, it was only a matter of time.
Even though Roderick had already reached the first rank of a Grand Magus, and the Li Fire sect had officially become a first-rate power in the empire, in front of Lin Lei, they were nothing more than a weak existence that could be destroyed with a single breath.
Not only that, the disciples who had trained together with Lin Lei had also entered the level of a magus.
The Li Fire sect was very lively right now. However, even though Roderick had already become a Grand Magus, everyone"s gazes were still subconsciously focused on the sealed room.
After all, the reason why the Li Fire sect had so many disciples was because ninety-nine percent of them had come because of Lin Lei, the Master of the Ultimate Sword.
Right now, in the Beilageluoya Empire, the name of Lin Lei, the Master of the Ultimate Sword, had become a legend.
Many bards had written stories about Linley"s exploits, spreading them through the streets, the villages, and the countryside.
The current Lin Lei was now the number one figure in the entire Beilageluoya Empire.
As long as one trained in magic within the Beilageluoya Empire, or used the sword, who wouldn"t want to join the Li Fire sect, where the Master of the Ultimate Sword, Lin Lei, resided?
Roderick was currently standing on the dais, giving a speech. The grand ceremony was being held.
But as he looked at the countless disciples below the dais, he was completely unconcerned. In his heart, he understood that they had all come because of Lin Lei.
Seeing this scene, a strange thought suddenly appeared in Roderick"s mind.
“How about I let Lin Lei take in a disciple?”
This strange thought appeared in Roderick"s mind, almost giving him a fright.
Wasn"t this a bit too bold?
Lin Lei was the Master of the Ultimate Sword whose name shook the entire Beilageluoya Empire!
However, Roderick had mustered up his courage. If he didn"t even say it, how could he possibly have a chance?
And then, Roderick immediately had one of the tower lords by his side help him continue the disciple-taking ceremony. He quickly walked to the nearby isolation room, then called out to Lin Lei, who was within the barriers.
“Lord Lin Lei, today is the day for our Li Fire sect to accept disciples. Indeed, many powerful newcomers have come. Would you like to come out and choose a disciple?”
Roderick didn"t dare to casually enter the isolation room. After all, this was the residence of the number one person in the empire.
He was merely a Grand Magus. Even the sages of the n.o.ble Magus clans had to be polite when they came to find Lin Lei. What right did he have to be so arrogant in front of Lin Lei.
“Patriarch, I told you long ago. You can just call me Lin Lei”
“As usual, there"s no need to do these meaningless formalities with me.”
Lin Lei shook his head helplessly.
He wasn"t someone who would just casually flatter someone and then raise his nose.
However, in the past year, his cultivation level hadn"t increased at all. Lin Lei understood that there was no point in continuing to train so hard.
Taking in a disciple..
It would be good to go out and take a look.
Lin Lei nodded. “Since that"s the case, I"ll go out with you and take a look first.”
And then, Lin Lei"s figure disappeared from the isolation room, appearing in front of Roderick.
Seeing Lin Lei, whom he hadn"t seen in a year, Roderick couldn"t help but feel extremely excited.
Lin Lei, who had been a bit immature, now had a profound aura about him.
Seeing that Lin Lei had already agreed to go to the disciple-accepting ceremony and meet with the newcomers, Roderick couldn"t help but say excitedly.
“Wonderful, Lin Lei.”
“Most likely, if they knew that you were going to go to the disciple-accepting ceremony, the entire Li Fire sect would be in an uproar.”
Lin Lei just laughed calmly, not planning to say anything.
And then, Lin Lei and Roderick headed towards the Nine Tower Plaza.
When Lin Lei appeared in the Nine Tower Plaza, the entire Li Fire sect instantly fell silent.
Silence!
Absolute silence!
Even if a needle had fallen to the ground, one could still hear it clearly.
Right now, in the vast nine tower plaza, only the sound of a gentle breeze could be heard.
However, in the next moment, the entire Li Fire sect descended into a frenzy!
The entire Li Fire sect was in an uproar!
“Oh my G.o.d! The Master of Ultimate Sword has actually come out!”
“Oh my G.o.d, am I really not dreaming! ? Could it be that the Master of Ultimate Sword is planning to take in a disciple! ?”
“If he is really taking in a disciple, I will be so excited!”
“If he is not taking in a disciple, then what is he? If he is not taking in a disciple, then why would the Master of Ultimate Sword appear at the disciple-taking ceremony?”
“The Master of Ultimate Sword is indeed just like what the bards said. He is so young and handsome! I am already addicted to it!”
“Is this the Master of Ultimate Sword? I must join the Li Fire sect!”
“Yeah, the Master of the Ultimate Sword is the number one expert in Beilageluoya. If we can join the Li Fire sect, then we are the juniors of the Master of the Ultimate Sword!”
“Join the Li Fire Sect? Now that the Master of the Ultimate Sword has come out to take in disciples, he will definitely join the Master of the Ultimate Sword!”
“If the Master of the Ultimate Sword takes me in as his disciple, who in the entire Beilageluoya Empire would dare to look down on me! ?”
