Chapter 15 Breaking Through the Spirit Sea Realm Shakes the Sect; Inner Disciples Ascend to the Top
The news of slaying the Wolf King in Black Wind Canyon and returning with a full haul immediately sent shockwaves through the entire Qingyun Sect.
The outer disciples cheered wildly, the inner disciples remained silent, the core disciples' faces turned ashen, and the elders all grinned from ear to ear.
The moment Qin Zhan and Su Qingyuan stepped into the mountain gate side by side, almost all the disciples automatically lined up on both sides, bowed and paid their respects, their presence comparable to the sect leader returning to the mountain.
The disciple thought to himself:
A demon king at the third level of Qi Gathering Realm and Spirit Sea Realm, who is also paired with the Holy Maiden, is not just a genius, he is a monster!
In the future, if Qin Zhan claims to be second in the Qingyun Sect, no one will dare to claim to be first!
Qin Zhan was already used to these respectful gazes, and his expression remained calm and indifferent.
He knew better than anyone else:
A great reputation is not as valuable as a solid moral foundation.
With the demon core, spirit stones, and spirit herbs all in hand, now is the perfect time to break through to the Spirit Sea realm.
Once you reach the Spirit Sea Realm, you will have no rivals in the inner sect, the core position will be within your grasp, and the foundation of the sect will be firmly established.
Su Qingyuan followed beside him, dressed in white, her eyes filled with an undisguised tenderness.
Su Qingyuan knew in her heart: He was about to go into seclusion to break through to a higher realm... With his foundation and opportunities, he would definitely succeed in one fell swoop.
Once he breaks through to the next realm, no one in the entire Qingyun Sect will be able to rival him.
Thinking about this, I felt a little proud and expectant.
She gently instructed, "Don't rush your seclusion. The Spirit Sea Realm is a dangerous place. I will guard outside the quiet room and make sure no one disturbs you."
His tone was natural and his attitude intimate; it was no longer the usual courtesy between fellow disciples.
Qin Zhan turned to look at her, his eyes filled with warmth: "With you here, I feel at ease."
Those six short words, neither frivolous nor greasy, made Su Qingyuan's cheeks flush slightly. She nodded gently, her heart beating faster.
Feelings spread silently, needing no words, already understood without being spoken.
Qin Zhan went directly into the top-level meditation room bestowed by the sect, where the concentration of spiritual energy far exceeded that of any place in the inner sect.
He sat cross-legged, took out the Wolf King Demon Core, and then took out several hundred-year-old spiritual herbs, along with a large amount of spirit stones. Everything was ready.
Qin Zhan's plan:
The Spirit Sea Realm focuses on opening up the Qi Sea and condensing spiritual energy.
Ordinary people, when breaking through a barrier, only seek stability;
What I want is the ultimate foundation, to open up the most magnificent spiritual sea in the history of the Qingyun Sect for ten thousand years!
Only by having a foundation that surpasses that of one's contemporaries can one eventually sweep across dynasties, holy realms, and countless worlds.
The "Burning Heaven Battle Emperor Technique" started operating with a roar, and the Chaos Battle Soul emitted bursts of buzzing.
The demon core's violent essence surged into the body like a tsunami, followed closely by the medicinal power of the spiritual herbs, and the spiritual energy of the spirit stones continuously flowed into the meridians.
"Open it!"
With a low shout, Qin Zhan's blood, spiritual energy, and battle spirit power surged into his dantian.
"boom--!!"
An invisible wave of energy swept outwards from the quiet room, causing the entire mountain to tremble slightly.
Within his dantian, a vast spiritual sea slowly took shape, as blue as the sky and as majestic as the sea, with a spiritual energy concentration several times greater than that of an ordinary spiritual sea realm cultivator!
Breakthrough successful!
Qi Gathering Realm → First Level of Spirit Sea Realm!
Moreover, its foundation is so solid that it is comparable to the third level of the Spirit Sea Realm, and its true combat power is terrifyingly immeasurable.
Outside the quiet room, Su Qingyuan sensed the terrifying fluctuation, her beautiful eyes lit up, and her heart, which had been hanging in suspense, was finally at ease.
She sighed inwardly:
I knew you would never be ordinary.
Such a breakthrough phenomenon is far beyond what the sect leader could achieve back then.
The elders were also alarmed, and upon scanning with their divine senses, they were all trembling with excitement:
"A foundation so rare it's unparalleled! This child is destined to become an emperor!"
"The Azure Cloud Sect is about to rise!"
After a short period of seclusion, Qin Zhan broke through his cultivation level.
Her clothes fluttered lightly, and her demeanor changed dramatically.
What was once a sharp blade has become an unfathomable ocean.
His gaze was calm, yet it carried an imposing aura that made people afraid to look him in the eye.
The moment Qin Zhan stepped out of the meditation room, Su Qingyuan immediately went to greet him, her eyes filled with joy: "Congratulations on entering the Spirit Sea Realm."
"Thanks to you guarding the pass." Qin Zhan smiled slightly, his youthful spirit shining through.
The two walked side by side toward the inner core hall.
The news had already spread.
All the inner disciples and core disciples were already waiting outside the hall.
Those who once looked down on Qin Zhan, plotted against him, or were jealous of him all lowered their heads and dared not breathe.
Spirit Sea Realm! And with such a terrifying foundation!
We're not even worthy to carry his shoes, so what are we vying for as the number one inner sect member?
The head elder of the inner sect personally came out to greet them and announced loudly:
"Qin Zhan has broken through to the Spirit Sea realm, achieving unparalleled feats. Effective immediately, he is promoted to the head disciple of the inner sect, commanding all inner and outer sect disciples and in charge of inner sect punishments!"
In a single sentence, Qin Zhan was directly propelled to the position of the inner sect's overlord.
All the disciples knelt down in a thunderous roar:
"Greetings, Senior Brother!"
"Our Senior Brother's divine power is unparalleled!"
Lin Xiaotian, the former number one disciple of the inner sect, even took the initiative to step forward and bow in respect:
"I am willing to obey the chief's orders and have no disloyalty whatsoever!"
Lin Xiaotian thought to himself: I didn't lose unjustly. Only by following someone like this can I have a future.
Qin Zhan stood atop the high platform, overlooking the entire arena, his voice steady and powerful:
"From now on, private fights and ambushes are prohibited within the sect. The law of the jungle is allowed, but conspiracies and tricks are not."
Merit will be rewarded, and wrongdoing will be punished; resources will be allocated according to work done, with absolutely no favoritism.
With just a few simple words, using both kindness and severity, he won over everyone's hearts.
The disciples were filled with emotion: the chief was just, powerful, and responsible. Following him meant not only safety but also a bright future!
The inner sect was completely unified.
The name of Qin Zhan has become the sole faith of the younger generation of the Qingyun Sect.
Inside the main hall, the elders sat in a circle, looking at Qin Zhan as if he were the future sect leader.
Qin Zhan was not arrogant or complacent; instead, he took the initiative to speak, his points clear and logical:
"This disciple has three requests."
"First, allocate 30% of the resources obtained from Black Wind Canyon to subsidize impoverished outer disciples, thereby winning over hearts and minds and consolidating the foundation of the sect."
Second, establish inner sect trials to select promising disciples and cultivate trusted followers.
Third, we request that the sect open the top floor of the Scripture Pavilion in exchange for cultivation resources to prepare for the upcoming Imperial Tournament.
Each of the three sentences resonated deeply with the elder.
The elders all nodded in approval: This young man is not greedy for credit or money, he has foresight, and he knows how to plan!
At such a young age, his political acumen far surpasses that of many elders!
This is no disciple, he is clearly a born leader!
The elders all agreed on the spot, and some even offered to do so on their own initiative:
"In the grand competition of dynasties, the entire sect will lend its strength to help you!"
You and Qingyuan are a match made in heaven, if only…”
The meaning was already clear before the words were even finished—
They wanted to bring the two together and bind them to the future of the sect.
Su Qingyuan was standing to the side. Upon hearing this, her ears turned red instantly. She lowered her head but did not refute it, secretly feeling a little expectant.
Qin Zhan chuckled inwardly, but calmly cupped his hands in greeting:
"Everything is at the sect's disposal."
Neither refusing nor being rash, the balance was just right.
Su Qingyuan secretly raised her eyes and glanced at him, only to meet Qin Zhan's smiling gaze. Her heart skipped a beat, and she quickly looked away, her cheeks burning even hotter.
The romantic storyline has become clear and is heating up.
As I stepped out of the main hall, the setting sun cast its slanting rays.
Qin Zhan and Su Qingyuan walked side by side on the Qingyun Mountain path, their shadows stretched long.
"Are you going to the Dynasty Grand Competition next?" Su Qingyuan asked softly.
"Not bad." Qin Zhan nodded, his eyes blazing with fighting spirit. "I have already reached the top of the inner sect, and the Qingyun Sect can no longer hold me back."
The grand dynastic competition is my first step in sweeping across the land.
Qin Zhan thought to himself:
The Spirit Sea Realm has been established, the inner sect has been unified, the power has been initially built, and a beauty has won his heart.
With the foundation laid, a great undertaking is about to begin.
Next stop—the dynasty's prodigies, all trampled underfoot!
Looking at his spirited profile, Su Qingyuan said softly, "I'll go with you."
It's not an inquiry, it's a decision.
She wanted to conquer the world with him and reach the pinnacle together.
Qin Zhan turned his head, grasped her hand, and felt the warmth and strength in his palm.
"Okay, let's go together."
Their fingers intertwined, their feelings for each other were firm.
Under the setting sun, the young overlord and the peerless saintess stand side by side.
Reaching the top of the inner gate is just the beginning.
A new dynasty is about to rise.
A confident smile appeared on Qin Zhan's lips:
"Dynasty's Pride?"
From this day forward, in any given era, there can only be one protagonist.
That's me, Qin Zhan!
