History's Number 1 Founder
chapter-1062

"The most outstanding batch among the second-generation disciples have all formed their Nascent Soul or are on the verge of doing so." Lin Feng smiled, "But the rest who are lagging behind will have to wait some time before they can catch up. After all, the higher the cultivation realm, the harder it was to progress, thus time needed would be more."

He turned to Xiao Yan, who was beside him. "The third-generation disciples are also developing well. This is a good thing. We have talents in every generation."

Xiao Yan laughed, "Just as you said Master, this is a delightful showing."

Lin Feng asked, "Is Tian You trying to overcome the Void Lightning Tribulations recently?"

Xiao Yan nodded his head before saying, "In terms of his accumulation, I agree that he is still lacking a little. But with his character, he is more towards being free and easy."

"Now that his state of mind is an appropriate condition, if he suppresses it, it might be harmful to him. When his accumulation is finally sufficient, I am afraid that his state of mind would be flawed then."

As he said till here, Xiao Yan was a little amused, "Everyone has their own fate and path to tread. Thus, I will let him choose what he wants to do."

"Having seen him grown up, I have a clear understanding of what he is like. Although he is a very easy-going person, he will not let his guard down for something like this."

Lin Feng nodded his head, "Do whatever you need to according to his abilities."

Xiao Yan revealed a smile on his face as he heard this, "With regards to Liu Xiafeng’s character and will, I have always found them credible. Especially even as Tang Jun caught up, he managed to remain calm. This is indeed rare."

Lin Feng laughed too, "Tian Cang’s situation is special. You can’t put him in the same light as the others."

Tang Jun possessed the Fire Lord Body. Besides the offensive strength of his Fire Lord Body, the Fire Lord Body could also interfere with time.

This interference did not just affect the opponent. It could also be used on Tang Jun’s own body. As Tang Jun’s own cultivation increased day by day, he also became better at controlling the Ashen Flames.

This talent of his could not only just be used to battle others. It was also useful in his normal cultivation.

Summoning the Ashen Flames could diminish Tang Jun’s powers greatly and could not be used for an extended period of time. But during the process of summoning it, Tang Jun did train his control of such a power.

As he overcame his limits again and again, he achieved a huge improvement.

As to why Tang Jun could catch up with the others so fast, it had a lot to do with his special body.

Of course, besides possessing the Fire Lord Body, Tang Jun’s talent in other areas were also very outstanding.

His Innate Ability was 9 points, Intelligence was 9 points, Determination was 8 points and his Fortune was 6 points. The total of these four statistics reached 32 points. And what was more eye-catching was the fact that if we disregarded the Fortune statistic, his other three statistics reached a total of 26 points. This was the highest among all the second-generation disciples.

Under the protection of Lin Feng, Xiao Yan and the Celestial Sect of Wonders, a Fortune statistic of 6 points was sufficient.

The higher the score of the talent statistic, the higher one’s potential was. Of course, whether one’s potential could really be fulfilled was not a certain matter. There were also those who had high talent statistic but they didn’t manage to fulfil their potentials.

But with Tang Jun’s current momentum, he seemed capable of living up to his potential.

Come to think about it, Lin Feng had not seen many whose Innate Ability, Intelligence and Determination derived such a high score like Tang Jun did.

Lin Feng often suspected that the top four Immediate Disciples under him had talent statistic scores that could not be measured using the same standard as everyone else. They could only be used as references.

Of course, while it was rare for the scores of the talent statistics to change, it didn’t mean that they could not change. Till this day, the statistics of Xiao Yan and the others had experienced changes too. Even for Yang Qing and Yue Hongyan, their scores did change after the intense battle with Zhang Lie in the past.

Lin Feng looked at Xiao Yan, "While the progress of the junior disciples is a cause for celebration, I am also very delighted at the progress of the few of you."

Xiao Yan said, "The situation in the Greater World changes all the time. While it’s quiet now, it’s actually like a tightened bow with the arrow on it. Once it’s released, the arrow will be unleashed quickly."

"We also can’t tell when things will go south. Normally, we can only strive in our cultivations. After all, to mold iron, we have to be tough ourselves first."

He smiled, "As we are working hard, the others are not slacking either."

In the few years after the Anti-Celestial Sect War, the situation of the Divine Lands confirmed that the Great Void Sect and Celestial Sect of Wonders were opposites of each other. And under this situation, there had been small changes too.

Especially after news of the Origins Dragon King reaching the Second Tribulation of Destiny spread, the entire Grand Celestial World was ready for a conflict to begin.

Comparatively, what was worth watching in the Divine Lands was actually the Heavenly Master Sword Sect.

After the Heavenly Master Swordmaster formed the way of the virtual entity during the battle of Mount Shu, another member of the Heavenly Master Sword Sect, the Celestial Sword Elder, managed to reach the Immortal Soul Third Level after retreating for some time.

The Celestial Sword Elder was a venerable elder of the Heavenly Master Sword Elder. He had already cultivated for more than ten thousand years. His seniority was very high and even the Heavenly Master Swordmaster had to call him Grandmaster.

During the battle of Mount Shu, after Lin Feng destroyed the Saintly Celestial Sword, the Celestial Sword Elder retreated and finally reached the Immortal Soul Third Level.

In these few years, the Heavenly Master Sword Sect re-appeared with two Immortal Soul Third Level cultivators. Everyone from the Divine Lands turned their attention towards them. But for various reasons, the Heavenly Master Sword Sect kept a low-profile and only invited a few closer powers for a small celebration.

What was worth mentioning was that the Celestial Sword Elder invited the Celestial Sect of Wonders for the celebration. Although Lin Feng did not go to congratulate him, Xiao Yan went over to express his congratulations on behalf of Lin Feng.

When the Heavenly Master Swordmaster and the Celestial Sword Elder met Xiao Yan privately, they requested him to invite Lin Feng over to express their thanks.

There was once when the Heavenly Master Sword Sect had a close relationship with the Celestial Sect of Wonders. But after the battle at Xiling City, their relationship became awkward.

Their ties were not cut, nor did they become enemies. But their relationship did turn cold. As Xiao Yan went over to congratulate the both of them, it could be seen as breaking the ice between both sects.

This was similar to the time when Lin Feng destroyed the Saintly Celestial Sword. The discussion of the way of karma then might have had some influence too.

The Great Void Sect was also invited, and Lin Daohan went over to congratulate the two elders. He met Xiao Yan and both of them were very calm. The conflict in the Starry Sea a few years ago did not seem to exist anymore. And while the relationship of the Celestial Sect of Wonders and the Heavenly Master Sword Sect became more cordial, the Great Void Sect did not express any opinion.

However, regardless whether it was the Heavenly Master Swordmaster or the Celestial Sword Elder, they did reveal their respect for the Great Void Sect.

The influence of the destruction of the Saintly Celestial Sword became more and more obvious as time passed. Besides the Heavenly Master Swordmaster and the Celestial Sword Elder, the Vast Sea Swordmaster had also retreated in the past few years. He was a sword cultivator that had been in the Immortal Soul Second Level for some time already.

Through the information obtained by the Celestial Sect of Wonders, the Lightning Swordmaster was also on the verge of overcoming his bottleneck. He would reach the Immortal Soul Third Level in time to come.

The Starry Swordmaster managed to cultivate the virtual entity 3000 years ago, while the Sun Moon Sword Sect had a cultivator called the Sun Radiance Swordmaster who cultivated the Lunar Glow Sword Manual. At last, the Corona Swordmaster that he had waited for had finally arrived.

Due to countless changes, Mount Shu remained silent and reacted to nobody. They kept themselves sealed and no news spread from internally. It’s as if they cut themselves off from the world.

The changes in the various sword sects were overwhelming, and these changes were the main content in the situation of the Divine Lands right now.

Besides the Heavenly Master Sword Sect, Vast Sea Sword Sect and other powers, another attention-seeking change occurred in the north.

After swallowing the territories of the Heaven Lake Sect and dominating the entire north territories, the Royal House of the Northern Tribes’ powers increased tremendously and they even helped the Celestial Sect of Wonders once more during the Anti-Celestial Sect War. After the matter, Lin Feng rewarded them and passed them the Yan Heaven Crucible of the East Heaven’s Gate.

Although the Yan Heaven Crucible was only in the gestation realm and could not match up to how it was during the Antiquity Age, it was already treated like a treasure by the Royal House of the Northern Tribes.

With huge amount of resources that were turned into useful materials by the Yan Heaven Crucible, the Royal House of Northern Tribes experienced rapid progress in these few years.

Their rapid progress caught the attention of the Great Qin Empire and Great Zhou Empire.

But the senior management of the Royal House of the Northern Tribes was very aware that the Great Qin Empire had adopted a rather conservative attitude. They allied with the Great Qin Empire and as they faced the Great Zhou Empire, they did not step out of line and do anything to spark a retaliation by the Great Zhou Empire.

The Great Zhou Empire also became rather conservative following the Anti-Celestial Sect War. With regards to the rise of the Royal House of the Northern Tribes, they could only remain quiet so far.

Of course, there were many private interactions, which naturally occurred between the Great Qin Empire and Royal House of the Northern Tribes too.

And recently, not long before the Celestial Sword Elder formed the way of the virtual entity, the Lord of the Royal House managed to reach the Immortal Soul Third Level, allowing the powers of the Royal House of the Northern Tribes to reach a higher level.

Besides the lack of a destiny level magic treasure, the Royal House of the Northern Tribes and Heavenly Master Sword Sect had become powers in the Divine Lands that could no longer be ignored anymore. Besides the Great Void Sect and Celestial Sect of Wonders, the Great Qin and Great Zhou Empire were also watching them now.

Lin Feng looked at Xiao Yan and said, "There’s too little information at hand, especially those concerning the Great Void Sect. Thus, we still need to observe how we can balance the situation out."

"Continue to cultivate well. Increasing your own powers will always be useful."

"I have a feeling that Miao Shihao will bring us very useful things when he exits his retreat. He retreated not because of he’s cultivating." Lin Feng lifted his head to look at void space before saying, "Recently, transformation of space has become more and more common. It’ll not be long before he exits from his retreat."
