Chapter 242: The Demon-Sealing Conference

"It seems the Holy Son has ended his seclusion."

A faint smile appeared on Elder Xie’s face. With a light wave of his hand, he brought his two disciples along and ascended Holy Son Peak. From the steps, the scenery of the peak unfolded before their eyes.

Earlier, outside the protective formation—he could not sense much.

He only guessed that the strange changes of Holy Son Peak must be related to Li Xun.

But now, after stepping within the formation, Elder Xie was utterly shaken.

Holy Son Peak—though no taller than two thousand zhang, within this small height manifested the visions of all four seasons: spring, summer, autumn, and winter.

Especially near the summit—there, the blazing sun hung overhead, unbearably scorching.

The dense resonance of Dao pervaded every inch of the peak. Every flower, every tree, every blade of grass, every stone seemed to embody and proclaim the mysteries of the Great Dao.

Such a sight was simply unbelievable.

Placed in the outside world, this place would undoubtedly be revered as a supreme cultivation ground. Not because of abundant spiritual energy, but because it was steeped in the true essence of the supreme laws!

Especially for cultivators at the Life and Death Realm, or even the Divine Palace Realm—Elder Xie even suspected that a Saint, should one come here, would also gain much from it!

"Master, what’s wrong?"

The two disciples asked curiously.

They had not been part of Profound Sun Holy Land for long. Their cultivation was still only at the Body Refinement Realm, and they could not sense the difference. To them, Holy Son Peak simply felt richer in spiritual energy than the outside world.

"You’ll understand in time."

Elder Xie replied in a solemn tone. Then he took a few steps forward, arriving before the great hall atop the peak. He cupped his hands and asked, "Holy Son, do you have time at the moment?"

"There’s no need for such formality, Elder Xie."

"Please, come in."

Li Xun’s voice carried out from within. The doors of the hall rumbled open, revealing a magnificent interior that left the two disciples stunned for a long while.

Entering the hall, they saw at its center a purple-robed figure standing with hands clasped behind his back. His aura was calm, his presence fused with heaven and earth. It was a stark contrast to the sharp-edged brilliance he once exuded.

There was a subtle, ineffable rhythm about him.

He slowly turned around. His flawless features—so striking that many women would be envious—radiated transcendent grace. His whole body seemed to glow with crystalline brilliance, divine radiance flowing unceasingly.

His bearing was so extraordinary that Elder Xie’s disciples were stunned on the spot.

Especially the female disciple on the left, her gaze locked upon him, unable to look away for a long while.

So this is the Holy Son...?

The same thought surfaced in both disciples’ minds. At that moment, they even forgot to salute, much to Elder Xie’s displeasure.

Ahem!

Elder Xie coughed softly.

The two disciples immediately snapped back to their senses, faces flushed with embarrassment. They quickly stepped forward and bowed respectfully.

"Disciple greets Senior Brother Holy Son!"

"There’s no need for excessive courtesy."

Li Xun raised his hand. A gentle breeze lifted the two disciples upright. With a faint smile, he turned to Elder Xie.

"Elder, these two are your new disciples?"

Now that he was already at mid-stage Divine Palace Realm, his insight far surpassed Elder Xie’s. At a glance, he could clearly discern their aptitudes.

Each possessed rare, one-in-a-thousand talent.

If they cultivated diligently, achieving the Divine Palace Realm would be no problem. And with sufficient fortune and opportunity, it wasn’t impossible for them to glimpse the realm of Saints.

"Correct."

Elder Xie nodded, a smile upon his face.

"Since they are Elder Xie’s disciples, how could I not show some regard?"

Li Xun chuckled lightly. With a flip of his palm, two jade slips flew out, landing before the two disciples.

"These two divine techniques may be of some use to you both."

"This..."

The two disciples looked at each other, momentarily at a loss.

"Since it is a gift from the Holy Son, then take it."

Elder Xie spoke up.

As for Li Xun’s wealth—no one in the sect could say for sure, except for Li Xun himself. After all, when he returned from the Great Strength Divine Demon Sect’s small world, he had casually taken out more than a hundred cultivation techniques in one go.

From that moment, Profound Sun Holy Land’s collection of Heaven level and higher divine techniques more than doubled. He even left behind two Saint level divine techniques—an act that left everyone utterly shocked.

Previously, everyone believed that if Profound Sun Holy Land were to ever obtain a Saint level technique or divine technique, it would only be through the Grand Elder painstakingly deriving one.

But who could have expected that Li Xun would leave once, and come back carrying so many?

In other words, Li Xun’s personal resources were already enough to establish his own Holy Land!

So now, gifting two Body Refinement realm disciples each a Xuan level divine technique was nothing to him. For Li Xun, it was as casual as spilling a cup of water—barely even a fraction of his wealth.

"Many thanks, Senior Brother Holy Son!"

The two disciples were overwhelmed with excitement, bowing once again.

For Li Xun or Elder Xie, a Xuan level divine technique was little more than a trifle. But to them, still only in the Body Refinement realm, it was unimaginably precious.

"Mm."

Li Xun nodded slightly, then turned his gaze toward Elder Xie, curiosity flickering in his eyes.

"Elder Xie, surely the reason you came today wasn’t merely to tell me you’ve just accepted two new disciples, was it?"

"Hah, nothing escapes the Holy Son."

Elder Xie laughed, though a trace of unease flashed across his face. He said, "This old man came today with two purposes. The first is to request from the Holy Son two slots for entry into the Profound Sun Secret Realm."

The Profound Sun Secret Realm—It was the very same secret realm once belonging to the Great Strength Divine Demon Sect, which after falling into Profound Sun Holy Land’s possession had been renamed.

Most of the treasures within had already been seized.

But the ocean-like density of spiritual energy within still remained. Profound Sun Holy Land had even set up several great spirit-gathering formations within, raising its concentration severalfold.

It was said that the aura had condensed entirely into liquid spiritual essence.

To train inside for one day was equivalent to cultivating for a hundred days outside.

Each year, Profound Sun Holy Land held competitions, selecting ten young geniuses to enter and train.

This year’s quota of ten was already full.

Anyone else wishing to enter could only do so through connections. And now, aside from the Grand Elder and the Holy Lord himself, no one held greater influence in Profound Sun Holy Land than Li Xun.

After all, it was he who had seized the secret realm. Without Li Xun, there would be no Profound Sun Secret Realm.

Thus, with his word, two slots were nothing difficult.

"Rest assured, Holy Son. I understand the rules of the Profound Sun Secret Realm. These two disciples of mine will not step foot inside the great spirit-gathering formations. They will only remain in the outer regions."

Elder Xie added quickly.

"A trifling matter."

Li Xun took the command token from his waist and handed it to Elder Xie with indifference.

"Is that all? If it’s merely this, then you need not have come yourself. Take my token—show it there, and they may enter the Profound Sun Secret Realm."

"My thanks, Holy Son."

Elder Xie cupped his hands respectfully and put the token away. After a brief pause of thought, he continued:

"The second matter for which I came today... concerns the Demon-Sealing Conference."
