Chapter 1028 - Sword Sovereign
During the evening, many cultivators from the "Heavenly Desolate Secret Realm" returned to the Yan Yang City. In an instant, the entire Yan Yang City and the "Pure Yang Sword Sect" were stirred.
Some of the cultivators that entered the secret realm returned safely, while others stayed in it forever.
Within the Yan Yang City and the "Pure Yang Sword Sect", there were naturally those who were happy and sad.
However, many people were like sharks that had smelled the blood. After finding a suitable sword faction cultivator, they immediately crazily pounced over, either patiently and patiently, or pestering him. They actually used all kinds of methods to dig out treasures from their bodies.
At the same time, all kinds of information were quickly spread between the Yan Yang City and sects.
It"s such a pity, that kid Cui Jue was ranked in the top twenty of the Heavenly Rankings since he was only twenty. I have long ago advised him not to go to the "Heavenly Desolate Secret Realm", but now, he"s been killed there two years ago.
"The Heavenly Desolate Secret Realm is indeed extremely dangerous. Out of so many people that went to the "Pure Yang Sword Sect", almost forty percent of us have lost our lives there. However, those who can survive, do indeed have a huge harvest. Aside from all sorts of heaven and earth treasures, most of them have increased their cultivation by two realms. "
"In my opinion, the one who reaped the biggest rewards would definitely be Tang Huan. Three years ago, he had only been at the Essence Condensation Realm, but now, it was said that his Profound Wonderland had changed. Even the expert at the peak of the Second Transformation had lost to him, and was called the number one expert of the "Heavenly Desolate Secret Realm". Furthermore, the various treasures that Tang Huan has obtained are even more frightening. I heard that Tang Huan has thousands of Natural Divine Stone of all ranks. "
"..."
"The number one expert of the Desolate Land?" The sky darkened, and within Heavenly Sword Hall, Xi Yi couldn"t help but laugh heartily as his eyes were filled with unconcealable praise.
"It"s just a false reputation everyone is giving to me."
Tang Huan also laughed.
There were already elders from various sects waiting on the platform. As a result, Tang Huan practically received a summons from the sect master the moment he returned to the Yan Yang City.
"To be able to receive such a t.i.tle, it seems that you have long since gained the approval of the cultivators from the various sects in the secret realm."
Xi Yi laughed, his brows trembling slightly.
At this time, he was also secretly rejoicing, luckily Tang Huan had met the two conditions he had set three years ago. Otherwise, he would have missed out on such a great opportunity.
After entering the secret realm, Tang Huan"s cultivation had gone from the Essence Condensation Realm to the Profound Wonderland. But if he stayed in the "Pure Yang Sword Sect", during these three years, it would be very good for Tang Huan to be able to step into the Yin Tribulation Realm. As for the void tribulation, the hope was very slim, and the Profound Wonderland was even more so.
In the three years since Tang Huan had left, Xi Yi"s greatest hope for Tang Huan was to return alive.
Even if there was nothing there, as long as he could preserve his life, Tang Huan still had the hope of becoming a Saint-rank Heavenly Blacksmith and a Saint Grade Gem synthesizer.
He did not expect that Tang Huan"s performance in the secret realm would be countless times better than what he had expected.
The t.i.tle "Number One Expert in the Desolate Land" wasn"t something that could be obtained so easily. If one did not have enough power to support him, who would dare to call themselves that, and they would soon have an even more powerful cultivator to teach him how to be a good person.
With this t.i.tle, Tang Huan believed that his name would quickly spread throughout the entire world, and he would be even more famous than "Pure Yang Sword Sect".
His voice paused slightly as he looked at Tang Huan with a face full of smiles, his eyes filled with hope. "Among the many disciples that have entered the Forging G.o.d Great World this time, there are a total of ten who have broken through to the Nihility G.o.d Stage, but only you and Ying Luo are able to step into the Nascent Profound Realm."
"Tang Huan, in another half a month, our Pure Yang Sword Sect will hold a "Hidden Sword Grand Ceremony" in the Hidden Sword Mountain, deciding the position of Sword Sovereign. Swordsmen under fifty years of age and disciples of the Golden Sword can partic.i.p.ate, I hope you can give it a try at that time." Xi Yi stroked his beard and laughed.
"Swordlord?"
Tang Huan was startled.
The so-called "Sword Sovereign" was actually the Young Sect Master of the "Pure Yang Sword Sect". Once Xi Yi abdicated his position, the "Sword Sovereign" would immediately succeed Xi Yi and become the "Pure Yang Sword Sect" "s new Sect Master. Of course, if the Sect Master had a satisfactory candidate, he could also nominate the person to be the Sword Sovereign.
However, the "Sword Sovereign" that was decided through the "Hidden Sword Ceremony" was much more convincing and respected than the "Sword Sovereign" that was directly appointed. As a result, unless there was an extremely special situation, any previous "Pure Yang Sword Sect" sect master would not normally use this method to decide on a successor.
"This old man"s cultivation has been stuck at a standstill for many years. It"ll take four to five years at the very least, or ten years at the most. I"ll head to the Heavenly Mystery Region and I won"t be able to delay the selection of the Sword Sovereign any longer." Xi Yi sighed lightly, and said: "Tang Huan, this year"s Hidden Sword Grand Ceremony, I hope that the one who will win will be you."
"Grand master, you think too highly of me."
Tang Huan laughed helplessly, "Within the sect, there are many swordsmen, and their strength surpa.s.ses mine in uncountable numbers. With my cultivation that has changed at the Profound Opening Realm, it"s impossible for me to obtain the position of Sword Sovereign." Most importantly, Tang Huan did not have the slightest bit of interest in the position of Sword Sovereign.
To Tang Huan, "Pure Yang Sword Sect" was the same as "Tiger Clan", they were both just relay stations along the way. If the time came, he would leave this place.
Although the position of Swordlord represented both status and glory, it also represented a promise. Once the Sword Sovereign ascends to the throne of the [Pure Yang Sword Sect], he would be tied up with the Pure Yang Sword Sect. It would be difficult for him to leave in the future, unless he could find a suitable new Sword Sovereign.
"Tang Huan, you worry too much."
Xi Yi laughed involuntarily, "The Hidden Sword Ceremony is not only a compet.i.tion of strength, but also of potential. If you only look at your abilities, you can just call the strongest people to a fight. Why did you call both Ying Luo and you here, and allow all the disciples of the Golden Sword to partic.i.p.ate as well? "
Tang Huan felt stifled by his words, but soon after, he shook his head and laughed bitterly, "Sect Master, I wish to leave the Yan Yang City to travel to various parts of the Forging G.o.d Great World. I will be setting off in at most half a year. If you truly become a "Sword Sovereign", you probably won"t be able to carry out the duties of a "Sword Sovereign" in the future. "
What Tang Huan said was half true, and half false. It was true that he wanted to leave, but not during his travels. What he wanted to do was to find the whereabouts of his mother, Shan Shan and the others.
"Tang Huan, you don"t have to worry about this, not to mention the Sword Sovereign, even if you really become the Sect Master of the Sword Sect in the future, if you don"t want to take care of the sect"s daily affairs, you can just hand it over to the seven Great Elders. You can still go wherever you want to. Moreover, becoming the Sword Sovereign will also be beneficial for your travel through the Forging G.o.d Great World. There are teleportation arrays between every province, and as long as you can pay a sufficient price, it will be much more convenient with your status. Otherwise, you won"t even be able to enter the sect that holds the teleportation arrays.
"Oh?"
Tang Huan"s mind was moved, if that was the case, then competing for the position of "Pure Yang Sword Sect" as the Sword Sovereign did not seem to be harmful.
