After ascending to the Grand Perfection Nascent Soul stage, I sit down to stabilize my realm and contemplate the interior of my body.
Shortly thereafter, nurous dim lights rapidly pour toward my cave residence from all directions.
They are the grand elders and elders of the Golden Divine Heavenly Thunder Sect.
At the center of them is Jin Byuk-ho.
"What is this?"
Surprise is evident in Jin Byuk-ho's eyes.
I am currently revealing the aura emanating from my realm, making it clear to everyone through this oppressive force what cultivation I have achieved.
Upon realizing that I have reached Nascent Soul Grand Perfection, the eyes of many grand elders and elders widened in astonishnt.
""
""
""
Paradoxically, despite everyone's faces being filled with shock, the surroundings are incredibly quiet and calm.
But at this mont, I am montarily dazed by the 'extrely' tumultuous intents.
Literally, the intents of the elders, grand elders, and Jin Byuk-ho are 'wildly surging.'
And finally.
"Ahhhhhhhhh!!"
One of the grand elders at the Heavenly Being stage begin to cry out suddenly.
"Ancestors!"
Following this grand elder, a majority of the grand elders and elders begin to cry out one after another, their faces filled with emotional fervor.
Could it be that emotions are contagious?
Even Jin Byuk-ho's eyes seem to redden a bit.
"You, you"
Step, step
He does not float in front of but lands down.
Jin Byuk-ho approaches , grabs my shoulders, and bows his head deeply.
"You are the future of our sect."
It is not tears of sorrow, but tears of overwhelming joy that uncontrollably burst forth.
This is happening across the entire leading figures of the Golden Divine Heavenly Thunder Sect.
"Everyone, listen!"
Jin Byuk-ho shouts loudly.
"Here, Seo Eun-hyun has succeeded in mastering all of the more than 10,000 thods of the Golden Divine Heavenly Thunder Sect. However, for so reason, he was left unable to use the Lightning Path thod. Nonetheless! As you have seen, Seo Eun-hyun has overco even that with his prodigious talent and reached the Grand Perfection Nascent Soul stage in a short period! Everyone listen!"
Jin Byuk-ho declares firmly.
"I, Jin Byuk-ho, with the authority of the Supre Sect Master, nominate Elder Seo Eun-hyun as the next Sect Leader!"
"!"
Suddenly, at Jin Byuk-ho's words, the Grand Elders also begin to shout one by one.
"Current Sect Leader Jin Min also nominates Elder Seo Eun-hyun!"
"I, Vice-Sect Leader Jin Hwi, also nominate Elder Seo Eun-hyun!"
"I, Grand Elder Jin Jin-chan, also agree!"
"I"
Nurous Grand Elders nominate at the sa ti, and the elders also agree.
Thus, I am unanimously appointed as the next Sect Leader.
"When the current Sect Leader Jin Min resigns, the next Sect Leader Jin Jin-chan will take over, and afterward, the Sect Leader position will be entrusted to Seo Eun-hyun, the succeeding Sect Leader! And! From today onwards, to Elder Seo Eun-hyun, who is now qualified to be the next Sect Leader!"
Wo-woong!
Jin Byuk-ho stretches his hand into the air.
His hand, performing a Four-Axis stage technique, connects through space to sowhere inside the Golden Divine Heavenly Thunder Sect, taking out a golden belt.
It's a golden belt inscribed with the characters for "Golden Lightning."
"I bestow upon him the surna Jin, symbolizing the qualification of the Sect Leader!"
Jin Byuk-ho, with a look of pride, hands the golden belt, saying,
"Take it, from now on, you are Jin Eun-hyun!"
Thus, by accepting the belt, I beca Jin Eun-hyun, the next-next Sect Leader of the Golden Divine Heavenly Thunder Sect.
The birth of 'Jin Eun-hyun,' a genius who inherited everything from the Golden Divine Heavenly Thunder Sect, soon spreads throughout the entire sect and all of the Sky Islands.𝓝♡vεℓB¡n: Elevating Stories, Elevating Minds.
Jin Byuk-ho decided to hold a celebration one month later to confirm Jin Eun-hyun's appointnt as the next-next Sect Leader and sent invitations to other human sects across each Sky Island.
Many responded to the invitation.
Moreover, the invitation even ntioned that Grand Cultivators at the Integration stage would dispatch their avatars to attend.
Many are amazed and look up to Jin Eun-hyun.
Except for Jeon Myeong-hoon.
""
[What's the matter, Sir Myeong-hoon?]
Jeon Myeong-hoon remains silent, watching the giant centipede, Hong Fan, who is smoking a long bamboo pipe in front of him.
[Didn't you say you wanted to et my master?]
"Ah, right. I did."
Jeon Myeong-hoon, with a blank expression, looks towards the cave residence behind Hong Fan.
It's a cave residence familiar to Jeon Myeong-hoon.
He has never entered it, but it belongs to soone he has been aware of for the last ten years.
When he told Hong Fan that he wanted to et his master, Hong Fan readily took Jeon Myeong-hoon and headed towards a cave residence, filling him with anticipation.
The sight of the entire sect's grand elders and elders flying towards the place struck by nurous Heavenly Tribulations is unforgettable.
Jeon Myeong-hoon had caught the eye of such a promising elder and received help through Hong Fan for ten years.
Perhaps, in the future, this Elder.
No, this soon to be 'Grand Elder', he and Jeon Myeong-hoon would lead the sect together.
However, Hong Fan had brought him to Seo Eun-hyun's cave residence.
At first, he hesitated, unable to comprehend the situation.
Then ca denial.
He thought perhaps the elder who had just reached the Grand Perfection of Nascent Soul happened to visit Seo Eun-hyun's cave residence.
But Hong Fan confird it for him.
This is the residence of my master, Seo Eun-hyun.
That was the situation until just monts ago.
'Seo Eun-hyun, already at Nascent Soul Grand Perfection?'
When Jeon Myeong-hoon barely reached Qi Building, Seo Eun-hyun had already reached Nascent Soul Grand Perfection.
He stands in front of the cave residence, incredulous for a while.
He feels incredibly insignificant for being happy about reaching Qi Building.
While I have reached the Qi Building stage, Seo Eun-hyun is already on the verge of becoming a Heavenly Being...? Is my Heavenly Golden Thunder Body not as good in quality as the Lightning Sacred Body?'
He wants to deny reality.
Beyond the interior of the cave residence, outside it, he wants to believe that the owner of the vast consciousness enveloping the entire peak is not Seo Eun-hyun.
Crunch.
But it is reality.
This includes not only sects from Thunder Spirit Island but also representative sects from other Sky Islands in the Cloud Island Archipelago, as well as several Grand Cultivators at the Integration stage who dispatched their avatars.
"Please accept this, future Sect Leader."
"Ah Thank you."
I express my gratitude to the representatives of the leading sects from other Sky Islands who ca to congratulate .
And, to the representative of Azure Spirit Island, 'Azure Tiger Saint,' who pours a drink.
Azure Tiger Saint laughs heartily and slaps my back vigorously.
"I've felt this way before, but I really should have kidnapped you to our Azure Heaven Creation Sect! Hahaha! What do you say, any thoughts on joining our Azure Heaven Creation Sect?"
"I regret not being able to join the Azure Heaven Creation Sect. However, the grace I have received from the Golden Divine Heavenly Thunder Sect is profound, so I'm afraid I must decline that offer."
I smile and converse with Azure Tiger Saint.
Hearing our conversation, Jin Byuk-ho glares at Azure Tiger Saint and shouts.
"Thirsty!"
"Alright, let pour you a drink."
Azure Tiger Saint laughs and pours a drink for Jin Byuk-ho as well. After drinking the alcohol poured by Azure Tiger Saint, Jin Byuk-ho exclaims with a flushed face.
"What nonsense are you speaking! The future Sect Leader Jin Eun-hyun is the treasure of our sect, and coveting him will be considered a challenge against !"
Kwarrrung!
Seven-colored lightning bursts forth from Jin Byuk-ho's body and strikes Azure Tiger Saint.
"Hahaha, this guy's old temperant is showing again."
Thump, thump!
Azure Tiger Saint laughs heartily while hitting Jin Byuk-ho's belly a few tis, and Jin Byuk-ho, clutching his stomach, takes a few steps back before rushing at Azure Tiger Saint and grappling him into the sky.
The two highest-ranking seniors of their sects, having drunk potent spiritual alcohol, suddenly begin a friendly duel while intoxicated.
"They're at it again"
"Haha, my apologies for the unsightly behavior. However, Azure Tiger Saint, Jin Byuk-ho, and White Bone Ghost Devil have been friends since their youth, so they tend to behave like this."
The envoy from the Azure Heaven Creation Sect apologetically pours another drink on behalf of Azure Tiger Saint.
"I see, but do you know why the Black Ghost Valley hasn't co?"
I ask the envoy from the Azure Heaven Creation Sect, puzzled.
He shakes his head with a puzzled expression and says,
"I'm not sure either"
Black Ghost Valley did not send an envoy to my celebration.
"Hmm, I've heard that the situation on the Sky Island where Black Ghost Valley is located is a bit unstable"
Apparently, Black Ghost Valley, situated in Black Mist Island, is still in the midst of war.
Although Black Ghost Valley had successfully ousted the forr leading sect, remnants of the old sect are causing trouble everywhere. Hence, Black Ghost Valley is deploying their Nether Crossing Ship to quell the disturbances.
Rumors have it that Black Ghost Valley is even gathering resources to construct another Nether Crossing Ship.
"Well, they must be busy, I guess."
"It's regrettable. I had things to discuss with Black Ghost Valley."
I nod slightly, feeling a bit disappointed.
'I wondered if we could enlist their help'
I continue conversing with the envoy from the Azure Heaven Creation Sect and others, pondering over my thoughts.
The envoys sent from countless Sky Islands represent an opportunity.
'It's an opportunity to smoothly proceed with the plan to seal the Heavenly Lightning Banner.'
Among them, it is especially crucial to beco acquainted with cultivators from the sa Head Realm.
I have no confidence in reaching the Heavenly Being stage before the Owner of Heavenly Punishnt descends.
Therefore, I have no ans of descending to the lower realms to seal the Heavenly Lightning Banner in the Head Realm.
But, if I can't descend to the Head Realm as a Heavenly Being myself, soone else can take there.
The most suitable candidates are Heavenly Being cultivators originating from the sa Head Realm.
The target I have in mind is, of course, a Heavenly Being stage cultivator from Black Ghost Valley.
Had Black Ghost Valley dispatched an envoy and I t with a Heavenly Being Grand Elder, I planned to secretly ask for their cooperation and, in return, offer to transfer to Black Ghost Valley.
'But since Black Ghost Valley is absent from this celebration, it can't be helped.'
It seems I need to look for an alternative.
Just while I am making acquaintances with the envoys...
"Hey, you!"
Suddenly, a burst of light flies in from sowhere.
The next mont.
Kwaaaang!
A massive explosion shakes the entire Golden Divine Heavenly Thunder Hall where the celebration is being held.
Kugugugu!
"What's going on!!!"
Jin Byuk-ho, who was dueling with Azure Tiger Saint in the sky, sobers up and descends.
However, his eyes widen upon seeing the instigator of the incident.
"You are!"
Kugugugu!
As the dust cloud settles, I furrow my brows.
A woman in black martial attire with a ponytail is extending her fist at .
Tap, tap.
I brush off the dust.
"You are"
"Excellent! To block an attack from this Hon Wei (/Dangerous Peak)!"
Kugugugu!
I imdiately assess the cultivation level of the woman who had suddenly attacked .
'Heavenly Being mid-stage Is she crazy? Even if I am at the Grand Perfection Nascent Soul stage, for soone of mid Heavenly Being stage to launch such an attack at a lower realm cultivator is...'
It's practically an attack ant to kill.
I frown.
'And why is Jin Byuk-ho suddenly so agitated?'
Upon the appearance of the woman who calls herself Hon Wei, Jin Byuk-ho bites his lip, unable to stay still.
Even Azure Tiger Saint seems to ponder whether to intervene or not.
'Is she the daughter of a high-ranking individual?'
I guess her status.
"Excuse , but the Human Race Grand Alliance headquarters did not send anyone and it's unlikely you are from there. Perhaps, are you the child of so distinguished person?"
"Hahaha! Quick-witted indeed! Yes, I am born from the lineage of a great Human Race Integration stage Grand Cultivator!"
'She's the daughter of a Grand Cultivator.'
I smile slightly.
"How co soone of your noble lineage has co to "
"Enough!"
However, she abruptly cuts off.
Her following words leave astonished.
"Let's get married!"
