Chapter 370: Chapter 368 Recommendation

Emperor Yu received a message from the patriarch of the Heavenly Sword Holy Land some days ago, informing him that the jade pendant he gave to Shu’er had been used.

This pendant was for defense against an attack from a Life and Death Realm expert, and the fact that Shu’er used it meant she encountered unimaginable danger in the Secret Realm; otherwise, with her strength, she wouldn’t have needed to use it.

Murderous intent flashed in Emperor Yu’s eyes. If anything were to happen to Shu’er, he would make everyone who entered the Xuanling Secret Realm pay with their lives.

“Your Majesty, Prince Yu Chi has returned.”

A guard quickly ran in from outside.

Emperor Yu’s face lit up with joy, and he loudly said, “Invite him in quickly.”

After saying this, he turned to the Empress and said, “Now you can be at ease; with Yu Chi personally escorting Shu’er, she should have already returned after condensing her Xuandan.”

“Yes, yes.”

As he spoke, Yu Chi strode into the palace, disregarding any formality, and shouted loudly, “Big Brother, Big Brother, our Yu Family has produced a dragon!”

Seeing the smile on Yu Chi’s face, the last bit of worry in Emperor Yu’s heart dissipated. He laughed and scolded, “A prince shouting like that, what kind of decorum is that?”

Yu Chi didn’t care about that; he rushed to the dragon throne as if teleporting, grabbing Emperor Yu’s arm, and exclaimed excitedly, “Big Brother, Shu’er is back! Can you guess what grade her pill is? It’s the second grade! A second grade Xuandan!”

“Isn’t it just a second… what… what grade?”

Emperor Yu was stunned at first, then his expression changed dramatically as he abruptly stood up. He grabbed Yu Chi’s shoulders in turn, his eyes reddening as he nearly shouted, “Second brother, say that again, I didn’t hear clearly, what grade?”

“Second grade.”

“Truly?”

“Truly, without a doubt. In the Secret Realm, Shu’er not only found the Golden Origin Fruit but also unexpectedly seized the Earth Essence Divine Grass. With these two Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, she refined the Golden Origin Divine Pill, instantly condensing a second-grade Xuandan,” Yu Chi said excitedly.

“Hahaha, good, good, second grade is excellent! Second grade is excellent! Where is Shu’er?”

“Father, I’m back.”

At this moment, Yu Shu stepped into the palace and rushed straight into the Empress’s arms.

…

“Long Zhao, in the inheritance land of the Sea Suppressing Sect, are there the two other Heavenly Level martial arts you mentioned?”

The Sea Suppressing Sect has a total of three Heavenly Level martial arts, namely the Great Cycle Ten Thousand Dragon Sutra, the Eight Desolate Dragon God Body Protection Skill, and the Azure Dragon Eight Forms. These three martial arts were the foundation of the Sea Suppressing Sect back then.

Long Zhao nodded heavily, as he understood his Senior Brother’s thoughts.

Previously, Senior Brother had never mentioned the inheritance land, and now asking about it obviously was due to the incident a few days ago where Huo Hong blocked the path. Genius or not, he couldn’t tolerate having his life and death controlled by others.

In the past, Senior Brother had all good intentions but somehow was reluctant to associate with the Sea Suppressing Sect. Now the opportunity to rebuild the Sea Suppressing Sect has finally come.

“The Eight Desolate Dragon God is a body protection skill, the Great Cycle Ten Thousand Dragon Sutra is for profound spiritual origin, combined with the Azure Dragon Eight Forms. With Senior Brother’s talent of forming a second-grade pill, no one at the same level can rival him. If he also masters the Mystic Sky Dragon Transformation Technique, even if Huo Hong returns, Senior Brother can stand invincible,” Long Zhao said proudly.

“Good, if you truly can bring me the Sea Suppressing Sect’s inheritance, once my cultivation is accomplished, I will definitely assist you in rebuilding the Sea Suppressing Sect,” Zhong Lin said solemnly.

“Senior Brother, rest assured, I will not disappoint you,” Long Zhao grinned widely, excitement gleaming in his eyes.

As the two were speaking, a guard quickly arrived, respectfully saluting and saying, “Young Master Zhong, His Majesty invites you.”

“Senior Brother, I’ll go first, wait for my good news.”

“In a slip of care.”

Long Zhao nodded, directly stepping into the air and leaving, leaving only his back, soon to disappear.

“Let’s go!”

“Young Master, please.”

Guided by the guard, Zhong Lin stepped into the palace. The first thing that caught his eyes was Emperor Yu sitting high on the dragon throne, his tall figure appearing like an impassable mountain on that throne. His light golden eyes were hard to meet directly, and just with a glance, Zhong Lin felt a stinging pain in his eyes, filled with awe.

“Such powerful cultivation, just one look gives me the feeling of being seen through. It’s no wonder he’s the top expert of the Heavenly Sea Country, probably crushing me just with his aura alone!”

Zhong Lin dared not be negligent, stepping forward to respectfully salute, “Zhong Lin greets Emperor Yu.”

“No need for excessive ceremony, rise.”

Emperor Yu’s voice wasn’t loud, but it carried endless majesty and the aura of an emperor.

“Father, this is Zhong Lin. Without him refining the Golden Origin Fruit and Earth Essence Divine Grass into elixirs, Shu’er could not have achieved a second-grade pill. Father, I promised Zhong Lin to help him join the Heavenly Sword Sacred Land; please don’t let Shu’er lose face,” Yu Shu cajoled.

Emperor Yu indulgently looked at Yu Shu, somewhat helplessly saying, “Alright, alright, whatever you want.”

“Hehe, Father loves me the most.”

Emperor Yu looked down at Zhong Lin and said solemnly, “Zhong Lin, Shu’er has already told me what happened in the Xuanling Secret Realm. I must thank you for your assistance.”

“Your Majesty is too kind, even without my help, the princess would be safe,” Zhong Lin replied.

Thinking back, with Yu Shu being chased by a Night Snake Sect elder, even without his appearance, she would have been in no danger, given even an eighth-rank healing pill or that terrifying jade pendant was enough for her to handle easily; those cards made even Zhong Lin envious.

“But matters are distinct, and with your help, she could form a second-grade pill, which is a major event for our Imperial family. I will keep my promise to recommend you to the Heavenly Sword Sacred Land, though unlike Shu’er, who as a member of the Heavenly Sea Country belongs to the Heavenly Sword Sacred Land, thus entering the Inner Sect directly. As for you, you’ll need to pass an examination; only by passing can you become an Outer Sect disciple. Whether you succeed depends on yourself,” Emperor Yu said.

Zhong Lin was delighted, once again saluting, “Thank you, Your Majesty.”

What Zhong Lin needed most now was an opportunity; as long as Emperor Yu was willing to recommend him, that was enough.

On the way back, Yu Shu had informed Zhong Lin about the Heavenly Sword Sacred Land’s system.

The Heavenly Sword Sacred Land opens its mountain gate to recruit disciples once every ten years, and most of the disciples recruited are youths of clear backgrounds, so someone like Zhong Lin is generally not in the recruitment scope, though it’s not to say there’s no chance. The recommendation system is one such opportunity.

True disciples, elders of the Sacred Land, and subordinate Imperial families all have the right to recommend, but to successfully enter still requires passing an examination, and only by passing can one become a disciple of the Sacred Land, albeit an Outer disciple. How far one goes afterwards depends on oneself.

After talking for a while longer, Zhong Lin finally left the main hall, and palace maids arranged accommodations for him.

“Big Brother, Zhong Lin is also a second-grade pill achiever, and a Seventh Grade Alchemist, why not draw him in and support him?”

“No rush, we need to observe his character more. You wouldn’t want to support an ungrateful person, would you? Besides, with Shu’er here, there’s plenty of opportunity.”
