Chapter 1256: The Six Great Saint Sects
Three days later.
After that day when Lin Fei fought against Yuan Zheng, the Yuan family was annihilated, and Lin Fei had already become the City Lord of Thousand Dragon City.
Moreover, the day after Lin Fei became the new City Lord of Thousand Dragon City, the highest ruler of the Holy Dragon Realm, the Celestial Saint, sent an emissary to announce Lin Fei's appointment as the new City Lord of Thousand Dragon City in front of the nine major families of Thousand Dragon City and all the distinguished figures.
The Holy Dragon Realm emissary, after reading the appointment from the highest ruler, did not linger for long and left Thousand Dragon City.
After the fact, Ouyang Stone informed Lin Fei that the Celestial Saint of the Holy Dragon Realm had spies placed in all ten Cultivation Cities, so Lin Fei's victory over the Yuan family and rise as the new City Lord of Thousand Dragon City was quickly relayed to the Holy Dragon Realm.
Thus, the Holy Dragon Realm emissary came so swiftly to Thousand Dragon City to appoint Lin Fei.
With the appointment from the Celestial Saint of the Holy Dragon Realm, Lin Fei rightfully became the new City Lord of Thousand Dragon City.
Lin Fei also discovered that the Celestial Saint, the highest ruler of the Holy Dragon Realm, seemed to have little interest in the power struggles among the forces of the various Cultivation Cities.
Evidently, to the Celestial Saint of the Holy Dragon Realm, who becomes a City Lord is not the key; the most important thing is obedience to the Celestial Saint's governance and loyalty to the Celestial Saint.
As for who rises to become a City Lord or loses the position in each Cultivation City, in the Celestial Saint's view, it is likely the natural rule of survival of the fittest.
This further proves the cruel rule of the Holy Dragon Continent, where the strong are revered, and only strength is paramount.
The young masters who attended the Yuan family's grand wedding have already left Thousand Dragon City and returned to their respective Cultivation Cities, bringing the news of the Yuan family's annihilation and Lin Fei's rise as the new City Lord to each major Cultivation City.
Lin Fei's fame could be said to spread across the ten major Cultivation Cities of the Holy Dragon Continent in just a few days.
Deep within the City Lord's Mansion, in front of a palace, in a verdant, holy aura-rich courtyard, Leng Ying, Yuan Yuxi, Wang Yixin, Su Xiaoyue, Chen Xinyi, Qingcheng, and several elders including Master Yuan were all sitting cross-legged, cultivating.
Master Yuan, Elder Li, and Elder Wang's bodies glowed faintly with a golden light, exuding a divine aura—this was the aura of entering the first layer of the Saint Realm.
The elders saw the holy aura emerging from their bodies and couldn't help but show expressions of excitement and joy: "We have finally become saints!"
"We possess the power of saints!"
"It's incredible!"
Then, they looked towards Lin Fei in the distance.
Lin Fei's gaze was focused on Leng Ying and the others cultivating, his expression concentrated. These days, he used the Saint Fire to absorb the abundant divine powers, infusing strength into Leng Ying, Yuan Yuxi, Wang Yixin, and others.
Additionally, he utilized the diverse elixir resources acquired from the Yuan family to continually assist Leng Ying and the others in cultivating.
In three days, Lin Fei witnessed that, under his infusion of power and elixir support, their strength improved rapidly, advancing quickly, soon to break through to becoming Saint Warriors and Saint Masters, and on the verge of breaking through to becoming Saint Sect.
Now Lin Fei could feel the increasingly powerful and astonishing aura emanating from them.
If nothing unexpected happens, they will soon enter the Saint Sect Realm.
"Lin Fei, we broke through the Saint Transformation and became saints!" The three elders had stood up from the ground and approached Lin Fei, expressing their endless gratitude.
Lin Fei then shifted his gaze from Leng Ying and the others to the three elders and saw the threads of holy aura appearing on their bodies.
In these three days, Lin Fei, through his own powers, directly elevated the elders. With Lin Fei's current strength, enhancing the martial artist elders to become saints was not difficult.
However, after reaching saint strength, the elders had little room for further improvement due to their age compared to the potential of Leng Ying and the others.
Nonetheless, the elders being able to reach saint strength was considered to have entered the threshold of strength on the Holy Dragon Continent, a survival entry pass.
Of course, their strength is still relatively weak, and Lin Fei will continue to protect them.
"Congratulations to the three elders for becoming saints!" Lin Fei offered them a smiling congratulation.
The three elders beamed with joy, immensely grateful to Lin Fei: "Without your help to enhance our power, we would never have been able to become saints in this lifetime."
"Lin Fei, you are practically our savior."
"To become saints, we would die without regrets!"
Lin Fei quickly responded, "The three elders have spoken too heavily. You are my grandfathers, how could I be your savior? Wouldn't that disrupt our generational order?"
"Hahaha..." The three elders laughed aloud.
Just as their laughter echoed in the courtyard, a loud crash sounded, a strong vibration shook the air, and a powerful aura spread out.
Then, Leng Ying, Yuan Yuxi, Wang Yixin, Qingcheng, Chen Xinyi, Su Xiaoyue, and others, sitting cross-legged in the courtyard, all suddenly erupted with a brilliant holy aura.
The intense holy aura dyed the entire courtyard, trees, and surrounding palace in golden hues, like the glow of sunset, illuminating the surroundings with brilliance.
Swish, swish, swish.
At that moment, from behind Leng Ying, Yuan Yuxi, and others, one Holy Ring after another erupted forth.
The Holy Ring shone at an impressive height of twenty-seven or twenty-eight meters, radiating with dazzling divine halos, rising into the air above the courtyard.
A total of six Holy Rings appeared in the sky above the courtyard, the spectacle was breathtaking and caught the attention of all cultivation experts in the City Lord's Mansion.
Upon seeing the impressive Holy Rings, twenty-eight meters tall, with strong divine aura, they were shocked and discussed: "These Holy Rings belong only to Saint Sect experts!"
"Could it be that someone in the City Lord's Mansion has broken through to Saint Sect strength?"
"It seems to be in the direction of the palace where the City Lord and his friends reside!"
In recent days, all cultivation experts in the City Lord's Mansion had become aware of the identities and presence of Leng Ying, Yuan Yuxi, and others.
Seeing suddenly six new Saint Sect experts in the City Lord's Mansion, all being Lin Fei's friends and women, the cultivation experts reaffirmed their loyalty to Lin Fei, dispelling any other thoughts.
After all, the Yuan family had only a few scattered Saint Sect experts; Lin Fei's current strength had comprehensively surpassed the Yuan family.
In the courtyard, Leng Ying, Yuan Yuxi, and the others slowly withdrew the holy aura and Holy Ring behind them, then opened their eyes.
When they opened their eyes, sharp light flashed in their eyes like electric sparks, and an astonishing aura burst forth from them.
This marked their qualitative change in aura upon entering the Saint Sect.
As the sharp light in their eyes and aura gradually faded, Yuan Yuxi, Wang Yixin, and others without delay exclaimed joyfully to Lin Fei: "Lin Fei, we have broken through to the Saint Sect!"
Faces brightened with smiles, Lin Fei and the three elders congratulated them: "Congratulations to you all!"
Then, with a flash from Lin Fei's Storage Ring, several flying swords emerged, hovering steadily in front of Yuan Yuxi and the others, pulsating with sword qi.
These flying swords were acquired by Lin Fei, including the Golden Thread Sword, Golden Snake Sword, and others from the Yuan family's arsenal—a perfect set of six swords.
Of course, each sword was at least Sixth Grade, perfectly suitable for their recent advancement to Saint Sect.
"Choose one for yourselves!" Lin Fei instructed Yuan Yuxi and others.
