“Senior Sister, you’re being too serious.”
Jiang Chengxuan immediately shook his head with a smile.
“This achievement wasn’t solely my doing; other Senior Brothers and Sisters
also played a crucial role.
Without them, it would have been difficult for me to obtain those two
treasures.”
“Hehe, Junior Brother, you’re really humble.”
Hong Mei giggled.
She could not help but have a better impression of this legendary junior brother.
She was well aware that the Haoran Sect’s gains from the recent venture into the Thousand River Secret Realm were largely thanks to Jiang Chengxuan s efforts, with some assistance from his partner, Shen Ruyan.
Truthfully, the contributions from others were minimal in comparison.
Yet, Jiang Chengxuan chose not to monopolize the credit, generously including everyone’s efforts.
To be honest, this action was very commendable.
“This visit of yours is to assume the role of an elder in our Haoran Sect, correct?”
Hong Mei eventually brought up the main subject.
Jiang Chengxuan smiled and nodded in agreement.
“indeed, now that my cultivation has reached Void Returning, according to the sect’s rules, I am here to assume the position of an elder.”
“Alright, follow me then,” Hong Mei said with a smile, turning to lead the way into the Elders’ Hall.
Jiang Chengxuan promptly followed.
“Junior Brother Jiang, as you probably know, any Haoran Sect cultivator who „ breaks through to Void Returning automatically becomes an elder of our sect, Hongmei said, smiling at Jiang Chengxuan as they walked.
Jiang Chengxuan nodded.
“I am aware of this, but I’m not sure about the process involved in becoming an
elder.
Also, are there specific duties I need to fulfill once I become an elder?”
“The process is simple; you just need to enter your identity information into the Haoran Sect’s Elders’ Hall’s system.
Then, everyone will be notified of the new elder’s induction.
Additionally, as an elder, you’ll receive certain benefits each year, including one hundred heavenly crystals and various spiritual herbs and pills.
You’ll be fully informed of all details once your information is recorded,” Hong
Mei explained as they continued on their way.
“As for your duties, they are what we, as elders of the Haoran Sect, are obliged to do.
Every 500 years, we have to go on a mission.
Because our Haoran sect controls a very wide territory.
So.
These once-every-five-hundred-year missions are mostly related to guarding
duties.”
“Guarding duties?” Jiang Chengxuan was somewhat surprised.
Hong Mei nodded and said, “Yes, indeed, guarding duties are quite common. But you don’t need to worry. Usually, there’s nothing much happening with such tasks, and you can stay in your guarding cave abode to cultivate.
Only when an issue arises that even peak Soul Formation cultivators cannot resolve will those responsible for guarding be alerted.
Moreover, since you’ve just broken through to Void Returning, you won’t need to undertake any missions for the next two hundred years. Just focus on cultivating and consolidating your realm.
This was also a form of care from the Haoran Sect towards newly advanced elders.
After all, having just advanced to Void Returning, some might not be fully familiar with the various techniques and divine powers of this realm.
So.
The sect deliberately gave them two hundred years to get acquainted with and master them.
“I see.”
Jiang Chengxuan nodded.
It was undeniable that the Haoran Sect was very considerate.
Although his situation no longer required such a consolidation period, having two hundred years of leisure time allowed him to learn many things he had never learned before.
“Yes, this is the place.”
At this moment.
Jiang Chengxuan and Hong Mei had already arrived at a hall.
In front of the hall, a remarkable mirror was hanging.
The surface of the mirror shimmered with strands of mysterious light.
Jiang Chengxuan felt a wave of fatigue from his Primordial Spirit upon gazing at it for a while.
Fortunately, the Vast Heaven Divine Jade in his Sea of Consciousness suddenly emitted a glow.
In an instant, the fatigue that originated from the Primordial Spirit was immediately wiped clean.
Hong Mei immediately looked at him in surprise and could not help but say, “Junior Brother Jiang, your Primordial Spirit is so strong. You weren’t affected by the Haoran Mirror.”
“Mm? Haoran Mirror?”
Jiang Chengxuan showed a hint of confusion.
He had clearly felt a profound weariness from his Primordial Spirit after looking at the mirror for a moment.
If not for the Vast Heaven Divine Jade clearing this fatigue, he might not have recovered so quickly.
“To be honest, this mirror is one of our Haoran Sect’s ultimate treasures and the final test for all who come here.
With the myriad of profound techniques in the world, it’s impossible to ensure that no one with ulterior motives infiltrates the sect.
This is an issue that concerns every sect.
As elders are the core of a sect, allowing such individuals into the Elders’ Hall could pose a significant threat.
So.
We brought a clone of our sect’s ultimate treasure to guard this place.
Clearly, Jiang Junior Brother, you’ve just passed the final test.”
Upon hearing Hong Mei’s explanation, Jiang Chengxuan was somewhat astonished.
He hadn’t expected the Haoran Sect’s ultimate treasure, the Haoran Mirror, to be present in the Elders’ Hall, and this was only a clone of it.
How powerful then must its true form be?
“What happens here if someone with ulterior motives is detected?” Jiang Chengxuan suddenly asked.
Hong Mei smiled and said, “If such individuals are detected, the Haoran Treasure Mirror won’t merely show the reaction you experienced but will directly attack the person.
At the very least, it will blast them out of the Elders’ Hall.
Even though this is just a clone of our ultimate treasure, its power is no less than that of the Dao Integration Holy Lord.”
“Not less powerful than a Dao Integration Holy Lord?” Jiang Chengxuan was genuinely shocked.
He had personally witnessed the strength of a Dao Integration Holy Lord. Compared to them, the Celestial Radiance stage and Profound Mystery stage of the Void Returning realm was nothing.
Yet, the clone of the Haoran Treasure Mirror here possessed such terrifying strength.
He truly couldn’t imagine just how terrifying it would be if it was its true body.
