In that instant, Bai Ziliang, with a pained expression, produced a talisman.
As soon as it appeared, it spread out ripples of spatial waves.
These ripples quickly enveloped Bai Ziliang’s entire body.
Qin Shenwu’s gaze immediately sharpened.
“It’s actually a Level 9 Grand Teleportation Talisman.
Even so, you can’t leave unscathed.”
As he finished speaking, the five-colored halo around Bai Ziliang shook violently.
There was a loud slap.
The protective barrier emitted by the Five Blessings Lantern shattered in an instant.
At the same time.
A terrifying force swept over Bai Ziliang’s body, vaporizing a large part of his physique.
“Arghhhh!”
Bai Ziliang let out a scream.
Fortunately, his Level 9 Grand Teleportation Talisman had erupted with all its might, instantly whisking away what remained of his half-body from the spot.
However, the Five Blessings Lantern, which he had regarded as a lifesaver, was left behind.
This was a top-grade heaven-connecting spiritual treasure, named the Five Blessings Lantern.
It was only a half-step away from the rank of an Arcane Celestial Treasure.
Most importantly, this treasure was of extreme importance to cultivators practicing the Dao of the Five Elements. It could help cultivators gather the five blessings, making their cultivation journey smoother.
Qin Shenwu picked it up and then directly tossed it to Jiang Chengxuan.
“Chengxuan, this treasure should be of great use to your future cultivation.
You should keep it. I believe, with your capability, subduing it shouldn’t be difficult.”
Receiving the Five Blessings Lantern thrown by Qin Shenwu, Jiang Chengxuan couldn’t help but feel a bit surprised.
He had clearly felt the power of the five blessings within the lantern, which would be of significant assistance in his future practice of the Dao of the Five Elements.
He had been thinking that it would be good to have the Five Blessings Lantern in his possession for a while.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, Qin Shenwu directly gifted it to him.
Without any reservation, he expressed his gratitude with sincerity.
“Thank you for the treasure, Shifu.”
“Good.”
Qin Shenwu nodded his head.
Subsequently, he casually distributed several treasures to the others present.
“These items shall serve as gifts for my advancement to all of you here.”
Seeing this, everyone present couldn’t help but express their gratitude in unison.
“We thank Daolord Shenwu for the generous gifts!”
A few days later.
Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan visited Qin Shenwu at Shenwu Peak, finally catching him during a rare moment of free time.
It’s undeniable that the past few days had been exceptionally busy for Qin Shenwu.
After all, his breakthrough to the Mahayana realm was no small matter.
People from various sects and paths came in an unending stream to offer their congratulations, including many Mahayana Daolords from various sects.
Qin Shenwu, naturally, could not afford to neglect these guests.
So.
It wasn’t until today that he finally had the real opportunity to meet with his disciples.
After exchanging pleasantries, Qin Shenwu eventually revealed the reason for calling Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan.
“Shifu, what did you say?
Martial Uncle Xue wants me to take on the role of vice sect master?”
Jiang Chengxuan was utterly astonished.
Just moments ago, Qin Shenwu had informed Jiang Chengxuan that Sect Master Xue Ping intended for Jiang Chengxuan to succeed him.
Therefore, he wanted Jiang Chengxuan to start by assuming the position of vice sect master.
Perhaps inspired by Qin Shenwu’s breakthrough, Xue Ping planned to step down from his position as the sect master of the Haoran Sect at an appropriate time.
He also intended to devote himself to cultivation, hoping to attempt a breakthrough to the Mahayana realm within his lifetime.
After all, only upon reaching the Mahayana realm does a cultivator gain the hope of ascending to immortality
In fact,
Not only him, but Yun Yizhen of Thunderclap Valley also planned to have Shen Ruyan take on the role of vice valley master.
He, like Xue Ping, aimed for Shen Ruyan to eventually succeed as the valley master of Thunderclap Valley.
This news undoubtedly took Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan by surprise.
They were well aware that being the head of a sect in the Floodgate Realm was not merely a managerial position like those in the lower realms.
In the Floodgate Realm, every sect head or family head holds absolute authority, with the power to veto decisions.
Unless a Mahayana Daolord intervenes.
But among the current super sects, how many Mahayana Daolords are there?
Even among the overlord sects, how many can there be?
Furthermore,
For cultivators who have reached the Mahayana realm, their true concern is no longer worldly matters but ascension.
Under normal circumstances, they would not easily interfere with sect affairs.
Moreover, after becoming the head of a sect, the most important privilege is the right to wield the sect’s guardian treasure.
It’s well known that every well-established super sect or overlord sect’s guardian treasure is at least an Arcane Celestial Treasure, and there’s even a chance to gain recognition from an Immortal Treasure, granting the right to wield it.
This is an opportunity not even Mahayana Daolords might have.
By wielding an Arcane Celestial Treasure or an Immortal Treasure, your future cultivation and comprehension of the Dao will benefit in ways nothing else can replace.
This is the true significance of becoming the head of a sect or a family.
As for why Bai Ziliang was in such a sorry state previously…
The main reason was that Qin Shenwu attacked too quickly and did not give him a chance to counter.
“How about it? Will you consider it seriously?”
Qin Shenwu asked again with a smile.
Jiang Chengxuan hesitated briefly, then looked at Qin Shenwu and said,
“According to your opinion, should I take up the position of vice sect master? I will follow your arrangement.”
Hearing Jiang Chengxuan’s words, Qin Shenwu couldn’t help but smile, pointing at him before speaking in a rather solemn tone,
“Since you’ve asked me, my advice would be for you to accept the position of vice sect master.
If possible, you should even aim to succeed as the sect master in the future.
Because, in our Floodgate Realm, those who have held the position of sect master will not be treated as ordinary disciples by our counterpart sect once they ascend to the Immortal Realm.
Do you understand my meaning?”
Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan were slightly startled, fully grasping the implication of Qin Shenwu’s words.
Jiang Chengxuan nodded and said,
“In that case, I am willing to accept this arrangement.”
“Good!”
Qin Shenwu nodded in satisfaction.
“Since that’s settled, let’s not delay. I will take you to see Junior Brother Xue now, so he can arrange the position of vice sect master for you.”
Without waiting for Jiang Chengxuan to respond, he led him and Shen Ruyan to the grand hall where Xue Ping was.
