Chapter 293 It was a waste of time to reprimand her last time.
These Nascent Soul cultivators were killed right under their noses by the Transcending Tribulation Mahayana cultivators of the Taixu Sect.
The Taixu Sect is going too far in bullying people.
This is something that even an uncle can tolerate, but an aunt cannot!
The Taixu Sect and the Beast Taming Sect have finally entered a state of war.
Although the leaders of both sects intended to narrow the scope of the war, the Qingyun Sect, Zixia Sect, and Chaoyuan Sect, which seized the opportunity, along with various associations and loose cultivator alliances that were no longer willing to be manipulated by the Taixu Sect and the Beast Taming Sect, all took advantage of the chaos to make their move.
The high-end combat forces of both the Taixu Sect and the Beast Taming Sect have suffered successive losses.
The leaders of the two sects died tragically in resentment. The two sects eventually disintegrated, scattering into dozens of smaller sects.
Zhong Lingxin seized the opportunity and killed Ji Guangqi.
She also quietly began her seclusion, raising her alchemy and weapon crafting skills to the eighth rank.
For a long time afterward, she mostly stayed in seclusion.
Occasionally, she would also visit Dragon Island.
As Long Xinglan's strength increased, the teleportation array on Dragon Island finally began to flicker with spiritual light.
The demons guarding the void were all excited.
The Immortal Spirit Continent is finally no longer closed off; they are about to open it up.
Zhong Ling was so worried that she was practically bald.
He devoted himself to studying formations in seclusion.
Long Xinglan was also working hard to study the time formation in seclusion.
The demons in the void stared at the shimmering celestial teleportation point every day, eagerly hoping that the point would suddenly transform into a teleportation array.
During the years that Long Xinglan and Zhong Lingxin used to freeze the formation, Zhong Lingxin advanced to the Tribulation Transcending Saint level on Dragon Island.
Sect Master Lu of the Qingyun Sect was still wondering if Zhong Lingxin, who had not made any moves for five hundred years since merging with the Heavenly Dao, should have advanced to the Mahayana stage.
Since the two major sects in the west were separated, the three major sects in the east have all ushered in a period of rapid development.
The disciples of the Qingyun Sect advanced extremely quickly, which correspondingly increased the demand for pills, talismans, artifacts, and arrays.
Grandmaster Zhong Lingxin, on whom the Qingyun Sect placed high hopes, naturally received even more attention from the elders of the Qingyun Sect's back mountain.
They were all hoping that Zhong Lingxin could advance to the Mahayana stage as soon as possible so that she could attempt to reach the ninth-grade pill.
On this day, Sect Leader Lu finally entered the Qingliang Hall carrying the entrustment of the old ancestors from the back mountain.
"Junior Sister Zhong, I'm bothering you with your fine tea again. Have you just come out of seclusion?"
"Sect Leader Lu, your timing is perfect. I just made two boxes of spiritual tea. In recent years, the spiritual energy of our Qingyun Sect has become increasingly abundant, and the spiritual energy of the tea has become increasingly pure and refined. Sect Leader Lu, please have a taste."
"Good, good, good, I can drink Junior Sister Zhong's good tea again. Speaking of which, it's always me who has done a bad job as the senior brother. Junior Sister Zhong now calls me Sect Master Lu."
"No, Sect Master Lu, you've been very busy these past few years, and I've also been in seclusion for a long time, so I've become a bit rusty."
"That's right, that's right. It seems I'll have to come to Qingliang Palace a few more times, Junior Sister Zhong."
"Welcome, Sect Leader Lu, but you're such a busy person, you must have something to discuss with my Qingliang Palace."
"Hehe, nothing much, just came to visit. Junior Sister Zhong must be a thousand years old by now, and she's been at the Integration stage for several hundred years. The ancestors on the back mountain all want to know when Junior Sister Zhong will advance to the Mahayana stage. If she needs any resources, just let us know, and the sect will definitely provide them for her."
Zhong Lingxin knew that Sect Leader Lu had come to Qingliang Palace on business; it turned out he was urging her to advance to the Mahayana stage.
She really wanted to force a cup of spiritual tea into Sect Master Lu's mouth to wake him up.
This time, she didn't call him Senior Brother Lu, but Sect Master Lu, because she had already transcended the tribulation, while Sect Master Lu was still a Mahayana cultivator and could no longer be her senior brother.
Unfortunately, Sect Master Lu was confused for a moment and didn't expect this.
No wonder Sect Master Lu didn't think of this.
The higher a cultivator's cultivation level, the more preparations are needed for advancement, and the higher the safety requirements become.
Huang Ying'er and Zhong Lingxin's advancement to Mahayana and union at Carp Back was met with severe criticism from the sect.
He never expected that Zhong Lingxin would dare to advance at both the Mahayana and Tribulation stages without joining the sect.
When Zhong Lingxin heard the purpose of Sect Leader Lu's visit, she smiled but did not speak.
Sect Leader Lu shuddered.
This is, this is...
Zhong Lingxin has already attained Mahayana enlightenment!
No, no, she just called him Sect Leader Lu, she called him Sect Leader Lu!
Sect Master Lu suddenly stood up: "Junior Sister Zhong... Uncle Zhong, you, you, you, you have transcended tribulation!"
Zhong Lingxin smiled as she watched Sect Leader Lu's loss of composure and poured him another cup of tea: "Sit down, sit down, sit down and let's talk. I just happened to have a lucky break and leveled up twice."
Sect Leader Lu's legs felt a little weak.
What does it mean to get promoted two levels by chance?
Are these two levels so easy to advance to?
Those were all near-death experiences, okay?
If other sects found out, they would definitely try to sabotage us!
Junior Sister Zhong, no, Uncle Zhong, you're too bold.
It was a waste of time to try and talk her out of it last time.
Seeing that Sect Leader Lu was practically rolling his eyes out, Zhong Lingxin hurriedly said, "Don't worry, don't worry, I will definitely ascend to immortality within the sect!"
Sect Leader Lu was so angry he wanted to slam his cup on the tea table, but then he remembered that Zhong Lingxin was now of a higher seniority than him. He picked it up gently and said in a deep voice, "Uncle Zhong, this is not a small matter."
This is a major security issue.
If you get promoted outside, who will protect you?
In our sect, every advancement to the Mahayana or Tribulation stage in recent years has been meticulously arranged by the Affairs Hall, with the patriarchs of the back mountain personally overseeing the process.
Even so, two of them still didn't make it through.
If something goes wrong while you're out there, there won't even be anyone to help you.
Zhong Lingxin knew her promotion would be fine, so she didn't want to say more about it and quickly tried to divert Sect Leader Lu's attention: "Sect Leader Lu, is there anything else you've come for?"
Sect Leader Lu immediately sat up straight; he certainly had other matters to attend to.
He urged Zhong Lingxin to advance in order so that she could refine more high-grade pills for the sect: "Well, Uncle Zhong, it's like this. As you know, the sect has developed well in recent years, and therefore needs more high-grade pills, talismans, artifacts, arrays, and other resources."
The sect used to be poor and had no foundation.
Therefore, the sect has been in dire need of elixirs in recent years, and the annual stipends of the old ancestors in the back mountain are not even enough.
Oh, and there are also magical artifacts and treasures; there aren't enough of them all.
"Uncle Zhong, what grade are your alchemy skills at now?"
The last sentence is the key point: they want to know the grade of Zhong Lingxin's alchemy.
Zhong Lingxin sighed, "Alas, Sect Master Lu, to be honest, I only advanced to the Tribulation Transcending stage because of a fortuitous opportunity. As for alchemy..."
Sect Leader Lu's heart sank inch by inch to the bottom.
Oh no, Uncle Zhong was so focused on improving his cultivation that he neglected alchemy.
The last time Uncle Zhong handed over a pill was a sixth-grade pill.
Could she still be a sixth-grade pill?
Even just being promoted to a seventh-grade alchemist would be great!
And her weapon crafting skills... last time they said it was grade five, but... this...
Seeing that Sect Leader Lu's face had almost fallen, Zhong Lingxin said softly, "As for alchemy, at least my cultivation has improved, and my spiritual sense has also improved a little..."
