In mid-air, the eight powerful figures from the super sects had different expressions upon hearing Lin Yi's choice.
Wu Dao's face was full of smiles, a gloomy look flashed in Liu Tong's eyes, and the others looked regretful.
"Lin Yi, this choice is no child's play; it concerns your future prospects and achievements. Don't let a momentary thought lead to regret in the end," Liu Tong said calmly. Everyone could hear the resentment and anger in his voice, as well as a hidden threat.
“Liu Tong, choosing a sect is a personal decision. It’s rather shameful of you to say that,” Wu Dao said, raising his eyes.
"Your Yuan Sect is indeed powerful, but my Dao Sect is no ordinary force either. Back then, a single disciple of the Dao Sect was able to storm your Yuan Sect and single-handedly kill three elders. Is that a weak feat?"
"Enlightenment, how dare you speak on this matter?" Liu Tong's expression changed drastically, and he immediately roared.
"What I have said is the truth. What can you do to me?" Wu Dao's eyes suddenly turned cold as he stared at Liu Tong and said slowly.
After a heated exchange of words, the two were about to come to blows, but they stopped after being persuaded by several other powerful figures from other sects.
After another round of heated debate, Wu Dao looked up at the mountaintop and said in a deep voice, "Those of you who are willing to join my Dao Sect, release your aura outwards; otherwise, simply gather your aura into your body."
As soon as Wu Dao finished speaking, some commotion arose on the mountaintop. Immediately afterward, waves of energy surged up. Only a few people managed to conceal their auras. In any case, Dao Sect was one of the top super sects in the Eastern Xuan Region, and being able to join it was already a good choice.
As Wu Dao watched this scene, his sleeves fluttered, and a great deal of light poured out, eventually transforming into beams of light that gradually enveloped the figures with considerable auras on the mountaintop.
Lin Yi looked at Mo Ling, Su Rou, and the others beside him and asked, "Are you willing to join the Dao Sect with me?"
Hearing this, Mo Ling said somewhat awkwardly, "We're not exactly top-tier here. Whether we can join a major sect depends on whether they want us..."
Swish!
As soon as Mo Ling finished speaking, a pillar of light descended from the sky, enveloping Mo Ling, Su Rou, Liu Bai, Yan Sen, and the others.
Lin Yi watched this scene with a smile on his lips. This old man who had attained enlightenment was quite reliable.
Mo Ling and the others were all excited, their eyes filled with gratitude as they looked at Lin Yi. They all understood that if it weren't for Lin Yi, it would have been a bit of a stretch for them to join the Dao Sect, given their talents.
Su Kui, in particular, was extremely grateful that he hadn't fought Lin Yi to the death back then, but instead accepted Lin Yi's conditions.
Su Rou looked at Lin Yi's back, her beautiful eyes filled with gratitude.
Next, after Wu Dao finished making his selection, the other seven super sects' experts made their move. Instantly, countless pillars of light surged across the sky, like walls of light, dividing up all the geniuses from various dynasties on the mountaintop.
The Great War of a Hundred Dynasties has come to an end at this point.
However, this space will remain open for a period of time, and during this time, the super sects will send people to keep an eye on it. If anyone performs exceptionally well, they will still be accepted into their ranks.
Of course, the disciples who are absorbed in this batch will be marked with the words "registered" on their names, a status that is even weaker than that of ordinary disciples.
At the mountaintop, with the distribution of disciple resources, the Hundred Dynasties War was finally over.
Lin Yi stood to one side, with a large, dark crowd gathered behind him. The people looked at him with a sense of awe, for from now on, they were all disciples of the Dao Sect.
Lin Yi's status is definitely higher than theirs. No matter what dynasty they come from, they can no longer have any sense of superiority in front of Lin Yi!
"The Hundred Dynasties War has ended. You will now accompany me to the Dao Sect. News from here will soon reach your respective dynasties, and the sect's rewards will be sent to your dynasties shortly."
Wu Dao looked at the dense crowd before him, smiled, and stroked his beard.
Enlightenment's words clearly drew excitement from many people. They had all come to participate in the Hundred Dynasties War on behalf of their respective dynasties, and now that they had finally achieved results, they couldn't help but feel proud when they thought about the joy that the news would bring back to their respective families.
"Buzz!"
As soon as Wu Dao finished speaking, his hand seals changed instantly, and powerful Yuan energy gathered in front of him. After a moment, it transformed into a huge array, within which light flowed.
These super sects have all constructed spatial imprints on this ancient battlefield, enabling them to activate teleportation at any time and send people into their respective sects.
"Let's go," Lin Yi said expectantly, taking the first step into the formation. Little Mink, Little Flame, and the others followed closely behind.
[Ding! Congratulations, host! You have won the Hundred Dynasties War Championship, bringing you one step closer to becoming the Supreme Martial Artist. Reward: One portion of Earth Core Divine Saliva!]
As soon as Lin Yi stepped into the formation, the system's familiar reward voice rang in his mind once again...
Chapter 214 Arrival at the Dao Sect, Choosing a Palace! [Choosing a Palace]
The Eastern Xuan Region, the southwestern region.
Here lies a vast mountain range stretching for hundreds of thousands of miles, shrouded in mist and clouds year-round, a truly mystical place.
This extremely massive mountain range is called the Dao Domain. Deep within the endless and vast Dao Domain mountain range, the swirling clouds and mist are clearly separated, and countless giant mountains, each tens of thousands of feet high, are clustered together. On those giant mountains, one can vaguely see magnificent buildings that seem to stretch endlessly.
Beneath those colossal mountains, cities emerge from the clouds, teeming with life, resembling a true kingdom from afar.
Deep within the mountains lies a massive light shield, nearly tens of thousands of feet high, resembling a giant bowl inverted from the sky, as if it were beneath us day and night.
Within the light barrier, one can see grand halls exuding an ancient and weathered aura, while beneath the vast sky, countless winds break through, and from the sky, one can see countless figures like ants, an indescribable majestic aura soaring straight into the clouds.
hum!
At this moment, in the sky outside the light shield, space suddenly distorted, and then a large amount of light condensed, finally transforming into a huge array.
Within that formation, hundreds of figures appeared, and when their gazes fell upon it, they were all instantly dumbfounded.
Lin Yi, who was at the head of the crowd, was also quite shocked by the scene before him.
Such a magnificent sight was something he had never seen before, in either his past or present life.
"Welcome to the Dao Sect," Wu Dao said with a smile, looking at the group of people who were completely shocked. There was also a hint of pride on his face.
"Let's go, follow me into the Dao Sect. You are not yet true disciples of the Dao Sect, so don't wander around recklessly."
Next, Wu Dao activated the transparent, bowl-shaped protective shield, leading Lin Yi and the others through it before heading straight into the depths of the Dao Sect.
"What magnificent and powerful primordial energy of heaven and earth!"
Walking through the Dao Sect and sensing the primordial energy of heaven and earth permeating the space, these geniuses from various dynasties were all deeply shocked.
During their journey, Little Marten stood beside Lin Yi, quietly introducing him to the general situation of the Dao Sect, and mentioning the most important Great Desolation Scripture.
"The place where the Daoist sect trains its disciples consists of four main halls, named after the primordial chaos of heaven and earth..."
Lin Yi was aware of all this, but he didn't reveal it.
Before long, Wu Dao led everyone to the depths of the Dao Sect and slowly descended onto a giant mountain.
On the mountain peak, grand halls stand tall, and at the very top, shrouded in mist, a vast blue stone platform emerges.
On the platform, towering pillars stood majestically, and Lin Yi and his group slowly descended.
"Hehe, Wudao, you're finally back."
Just as Lin Yi and his group landed, a laugh came from ahead. Looking up, he saw more than a dozen figures on the green sandalwood tree.
At the head of the group were three middle-aged men, standing with their hands behind their backs. Their imposing presence was quite remarkable, and Lin Yi could feel an extremely powerful aura emanating from their bodies.
These three people were the deputy hall masters of the other three halls of the Dao Sect.
Lin Yi's gaze swept over the three people, and then looked at their sides, where a young disciple stood on each side—two men and one woman, all exuding extremely powerful auras.
Of the three, the most eye-catching was the young girl. She was obviously not very old, and looked about the same age as Su Rou, but she was taller and more slender. She wore a red dress and stood gracefully.
The girl was exceptionally beautiful, and a strange energy emanated from her body, like the clear sound of a musical instrument being struck.
"Are you all so impatient?" Wu Dao landed, glanced at the three middle-aged men in front of him, and said indifferently.
"Haha, the news of this Hundred Dynasties War has already spread throughout the sect. I didn't expect the champion to join our Dao Sect instead of the Yuan Sect. It's really satisfying!" said Wei Sen, the deputy hall master of the Heavenly Palace, laughing loudly.
"Who is the champion of this year's Hundred Dynasties War?" Another deputy hall master of the Earth Palace also had a smile on his face, his gaze sweeping over Lin Yi and the others, his eyes somewhat eager.
"Disciple Lin Yi greets the three Vice Hall Masters," Lin Yi stepped forward, clasped his hands in a salute to the three, and said.
The moment Lin Yi stepped forward, the three deputy hall masters and the red-clad girl beside him immediately focused their attention on him. They were clearly very interested in this new disciple who had already gained some fame within the Dao Sect even before joining the sect.
"Five Elements Nirvana Realm, Five Seal Heavenly Talisman Master, very impressive..."
Wei Sen's eyesight was clearly quite sharp; after a brief probe, he was able to detect Lin Yi's Yuan Power and Mental Power cultivation levels.
"A Five-Seal Celestial Talisman Master?"
Upon hearing this, the girl in red and the two young men beside her both showed a look of surprise.
Clearly, no one expected that Lin Yi could cultivate both Yuan Power and Spiritual Power to this level simultaneously.
"Hehe, this Lin Yi is not bad, let him come to my Heavenly Palace," Wei Sen stared at Lin Yi for a moment, then waved his hand and said with a smile.
The deputy hall masters of the Earth Hall and the Flood Hall, standing to the side, curled their lips, clearly feeling a bit regretful that such a promising talent had fallen into the hands of the Heaven Hall.
Upon hearing this, Wu Dao felt a surge of irritation and his face turned ugly, but he still waved his sleeve and said helplessly, "The Heavenly Palace is the strongest of the four palaces now. If you want, go to the Heavenly Palace."
Lin Yi's eyes flashed slightly, and he cupped his hands to Wei Sen, saying, "I am grateful for the Vice Hall Master's kindness, but I would like to join the Desolate Hall."
Lin Yi's calm voice rang out, which stunned everyone except for Xiao Diao and Xiao Yan, who remained calm.
“Lin Yi…you…” Even Wu Dao was astonished by Lin Yi’s words.
The astonishment on the face of Wei Sen, the deputy hall master of the Heavenly Palace, gradually faded. He stared intently at Lin Yi, his brows slowly furrowing. "Lin Yi, your talent is not weak, but don't ruin your future. Although I don't mean to look down on the Desolate Palace, I dare to tell you that only in the Heavenly Palace can you achieve the greatest improvement."
Although Wu Dao and the others pursed their lips at Wei Sen's words, they did not refute them. Of the four palaces, the Heavenly Palace was indeed the most powerful.
"Thank you for your consideration, Vice Hall Master, but I believe the Desolate Hall is the most suitable for me," Lin Yi said with a slight apology on his face, but he still insisted, "I believe the Desolate Hall will not ruin my future. What do you say, Vice Hall Master Wudao?"
“The Heavenly Palace is indeed stronger than the Desolate Palace,” Wu Dao hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, “However, if you really want to join the Desolate Palace, I will absolutely support you. In any case, I will never ruin you.”
Wei Sen frowned and stared at Lin Yi. After a moment, he shook his head and said indifferently, "Since this is your own choice, then I, the Palace Master, will not say much. I just hope you will take care of yourself."
"You're being far too selfish..."
Just then, a clear and melodious sound suddenly rang out on the bluestone platform.
Chapter 215 A Promise Made, Six Elements Nirvana! [Please Read On]
Lin Yi looked in the direction of the sound and saw the girl in red staring at him with her brows slightly furrowed.
"How am I selfish? There's no rule in the sect that says you have to join a certain hall, right?" Lin Yi raised an eyebrow and asked in return.
"The sect doesn't have this rule, but you have good talent. If you join the Heavenly Palace, you can maximize your potential and become stronger, which would be good for the sect. But now you're giving up this path. To some extent, you've weakened the sect. Isn't that selfish?"
The girl in red had a clear, crisp voice, accompanied by the gentle tapping of musical instruments, which was pleasant to listen to. However, the sharpness in her words left everyone speechless.
Lin Yi said calmly, "I think joining the Desolate Palace will allow me to grow stronger faster, because the Desolate Palace possesses the Great Desolate Scripture!"
"Once I comprehend the Great Desolation Scripture, do you think the Dao Sect will be slightly stronger or slightly weaker?"
Upon hearing this, everyone was startled once again.
So, this guy was after the Great Desolation Scripture. But isn't he a bit too arrogant?
The Great Desolation Scripture is the most mysterious and unpredictable martial art among the Four Great Scriptures. In all these years, the number of geniuses in the Desolate Palace who have been able to comprehend it is no more than ten. How dare Lin Yi say such a thing?
