As Gold Sword Zen Ren spoke, Zhou Yun Feng began to manipulate the five pots of Spirit Grass that Lin Yi and Han Feng Jie had looked after. He levitated them into mid-air so that all the disciples of the Golden Sword lineage could see them clearly.
The two groups of Spirit Grass presented completely different scenes. One group of Spirit Grass, in terms of size and condition, far surpassed the other, displaying a clear disparity.
Everyone clearly knew that the superior group of Spirit Grass was cultivated by Lin Yi, who had risen from an Outer Sect Spirit Farmer to an Inner Sect Disciple.
Some Inner Sect Disciples initially scoffed at him, thinking that he would only ever amount to a farmer. But now, he had received an enormous opportunity.
“Lin Yi, Han Feng Jie, you two come over here,” Zhou Yun Feng said with a smile, beckoning them over.
Lin Yi and Han Feng Jie stepped out from the crowd and stood behind Zhou Yun Feng. The other three disciples, who had been granted slots in the Secret Realm, stood nearby as well.
At this moment, the faces of many people in the crowd lit up with understanding. They could see the cultivation levels of the five disciples. Except for Lin Yi, the others were all at the Qi Refining Ninth Layer. They had entered the Liu Yun Sect as Inner Sect Disciples.
The only exception was Lin Yi, who was at the Qi Refining Eighth Stage and had started as an Outer Sect Spirit Farmer. During his six years in the Inner Sect, he had been somewhat obscure, with absolutely no presence.
Even now, of the five disciples who were granted slots in the Secret Realm, Lin Yi was the most inconspicuous, easily overlooked.
Despite Lin Yi obtaining the highly coveted Secret Realm slot, many people felt no resentment or envy.
On the contrary, they admired the courage that he displayed by daring to venture into the treacherous Secret Realm.
However, some people had doubts. After all, it was well known that Lin Yi had been diligently farming. Some questioned whether he had even practiced any attack spells. Despite his commendable management of the Spirit Grass, could he really survive in the Secret Realm and gain access to the Cave Mansion?
Even with the protection of combat-capable disciples, when first entering the Secret Realm, one gets randomly teleported. It was possible to die upon arrival.
Disciples from the same sect had been known to fight each other for treasures, let alone encountering disciples from other sects.
Murders within the Secret Realm, unless witnessed by others, would never be found out. Even if the Nascent Soul True Monarch tried to divine the truth, the identity of the killer would still remain a mystery.
“You five have passed the test. Do you confirm your decision to enter the Dan God Secret Realm? This Secret Realm is highly dangerous. The slightest misstep could cost you your life.” Gold Sword Zen Ren approached the five of them and asked slowly.
Without any hesitation, Lin Yi and the other four disciples confirmed, “We choose to enter the Dan God Secret Realm.”
Gold Sword Zen Ren nodded slowly, turned around, and said to all the disciples of the Golden Sword lineage, “These five disciples will represent
Golden Sword Peak in the Dan God Secret Realm. Does anyone object?”
“We have no objections,” replied the crowd, as everyone bowed respectfully. Even if they had opinions, they had to keep them to themselves in front of Gold Sword Zen Ren.
“Very well, that settles it. Follow me to Liu Yun Hall to meet the Sect Master,” said Gold Sword Zen Ren as he lightly swept his hand, causing the Golden Sword to enlarge. Lin Yi and the other four disciples flew up onto the sword and headed towards the main hall of the Liu Yun Sect.
This hall was located atop Liu Yun Peak, right at the core of Liu Yun Sect. It was guarded by the Eleven Peaks of Golden Pill. Regardless of the direction from which an enemy might attack, they would first have to break through the defense lines of the Eleven Peaks of Golden Pill.
Unlike the vast areas of the other Golden Pill Peaks, Liu Yun Peak, as the sect’s core base, only had a few affiliated peaks around it. These peaks were essentially the headquarters of various departments that supported the operation of the entire sect.
Green Jade Zen Ren, the Grand Master of Liu Yun Sect and one of the eleven Golden Core Real Persons, had his own Green Jade Peak. Though his combat power was not on par Vith Golden Sword Peak and Divine Fire Peak, it was not to be underestimated.
At the top of Golden Sword Peak, watching as Gold Sword Zen Ren escorted Lin Yi and the others away, Zhou Yun Feng dismissed the crowd.
Several disciples gathered in small groups, discussing the matter of Lin Yi, the Outer Sect Spirit Farmer. However, after just a brief conversation, some found they had already forgotten what Lin Yi looked like. He was an inconspicuous figure and thus, very easily forgotten.
Su Qi Hong, from the Sect Affairs Hall, watched the disappearing figures in the sky and showed a wistful expression. He was surprised to see Lin Yi excel in farming and thought that this entry into the Dan God Secret Realm might truly change his destiny.
Li Yuan Qing also looked at the sky, his face expressionless. But there was a touch of complexity in his gaze. He had previously considered Lin Yi’s cautious nature and thought about sending him to explore some Secret Realms.
Besides the Dan God Secret Realm, there was anything more than a chance that other Realms might also have Spiritual Medicine that could replenish foundations. However, in the Dan God Secret Realm, the existence of such medicine was a certainty.
However, later on, the talisman template that Lin Yi created played a significant role in the war against the Xuan Yin Sect. Along with the recommendation from Senior Brother Zhou Yun Feng, he was finally able to repay Lin Yi for past debts.
To his surprise, Lin Yi chose to participate in the trial for the Dan God Secret Realm and took the tremendous risk at this point in time.
This made him unsure.. Did this cautious fellow have complete confidence in staying alive, or did he feel that this once-in-a-thousand-year opportunity was worth the risk?
