Chapter 712: The Ancestor of the Yuhua Sect

The mountain behind Jinding Peak is the forbidden area of ​​the Ascension Sect and the retreat place for the ancestors of the sect.

Muxuan sent the news of Zhao Heng's return to the sect in advance and was summoned by the ancestor.

The two of them walked unimpeded all the way to the depths of the back mountain, outside a cave built near mountains and rivers, with a light cyan light curtain surrounding the cave entrance.

Muxuan bowed to the cave and said, "Ancestor, my disciple has brought Zhao Heng here."

Zhao Heng also bowed towards the cave.

"Come in!"

An old voice came from the cave, and then a green light rippled, and the light curtain opened and closed, creating a passage for the two of them.

The two masters and apprentices followed the passage into the cave gate and finally came to a spacious and bright cave hall.

The furnishings in the hall are extremely simple, with some stone tables and wooden shelves placed, and a few aura-filled green plants. There is a futon in the center of the hall.

Sitting on the futon directly above was a thin old man with long arms and slightly broad shoulder blades.

The old man was wearing a light green gown, with gray beard and hair, and a face full of wrinkles. He was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, like an old monk in meditation, or like a dry old willow tree.

As Zhao Heng and the two walked into the hall, the old man slowly opened his eyes. They were a pair of turbid and dim eyes, giving people a feeling of twilight.

"Xiaoxuan, you're here."

The old man nodded slightly to Muxuan, who immediately bowed and saluted.

"Disciple pays homage to Master!"

Zhao Heng was slightly shocked when he heard Muxuan's change of title.

Muxuan immediately reminded: "Xiao Heng, come and pay homage to your master."

Hearing this, although Zhao Heng was surprised, he still bowed and saluted: "Disciple Zhao Heng, pay your respects to the master!"

"You are Zhao Heng."

The old man's turbid and dim eyes fell on Zhao Heng, and two green lights suddenly appeared in his eyes.

Immediately, Zhao Heng felt that an invisible energy enveloped him, moistening things silently, as if he was trying to see through him.

Zhao Heng naturally knew that this was his ancestor's exploration of him, and Zhao Heng didn't care at all. With his current cultivation level, he also practiced a variety of secret techniques to conceal his aura, and also had the Starry Sky Order to cover his aura.

Even a monk in the Divine Infant Realm cannot see through his true identity. Naturally, it is impossible for the ancestor to see the clues. He can only detect the spiritual consciousness cultivation in the late stage of the God Control Realm that he has displayed.

Moreover, while the old man was observing Zhao Heng, Zhao Heng was also secretly using the vast spiritual consciousness of the distraction realm to perform divine observation skills to detect the opponent's details.

Zhao Heng was a little surprised. The aura of this ancestor was deep and majestic. The introverted domain power around his body actually condensed an inscription chain exuding the aura of Mu Yuan. It had actually touched the power of law. Danxia A strong person in the late stage.

His attainments in the power of law are almost equal to those of Yin Feng, the first supreme elder of the Blood Refining Sect.

But Zhao Heng also noticed that the Qi and blood in the ancestor's body declined and the vitality withered, which was clearly a sign that his longevity was approaching.

As a result, the ancestor's combat power will inevitably be affected.

"Grandfather and grandson" visited each other for a while.

"Haha, okay!" The blue light in the eyes of the ancestor of the Yuhua Sect disappeared, and a smile appeared on his old face.

"I have long heard about your master and mentioned your name. Now I finally see your true face. As expected, you are a young and promising young genius. Your power of spiritual consciousness has reached the peak of the late stage of the second innate realm, and you are expected to break through. peak.

If we can condense the prototype of the domain in the future, we might as well seize the opportunity to hit the third innate realm.

God is wise and has finally brought some hope to me, the Yuhua Sect! "

Hearing this, Zhao Heng didn't have much expression, but Muxuan on the side looked surprised.

As Zhao Heng's teacher, Muxuan felt proud from the bottom of her heart when she heard that Zhao Heng was praised so much by her master and even said that he had the slightest chance of reaching the third realm of innateness.

"Master, with Xiao Heng's current strength, he can rank among the top three even among the second level Xiantian monks of our Ascension Sect. What position do you think he should be given?"

The old man glanced at Muxuan with a playful smile.

"Don't think that my master doesn't know your thoughts. You want to push Zhao Heng to the top and become the leader of the Yuhua Sect."

As soon as these words came out, Zhao Heng couldn't help but feel shocked.

When he left the Southern Territory, he was just an outer disciple of the Ascension Sect. Now, even though he is estimated to have shown strength in the late second realm, he has never thought about becoming the leader of the Ascension Sect.

Master Muxuan on the side had a natural expression on his face when he heard this.

"Master, now my position as the leader of the Ascension Sect is vacant, and the masters of various peaks are secretly competing with each other. You are old, but you still have to work hard for the affairs of the sect. Why not elect a new sect leader to take charge of the sect.

Xiao Heng has extraordinary strength, is young and promising, and more importantly, he is my disciple, your disciple. How can a master not care for his disciple? "

Zhao Heng was stunned. The master actually wanted him to be the sect leader. This was a very reasonable step.

The ancestor also had a wry smile on his face.

“Girl, you have already accepted so many disciples, why are you still not prudent in your work?

It is true that Zhao Heng is my disciple, and his talent and strength are also qualified to compete for the position of sect leader.

But after all, he has too little qualifications. If he is promoted hastily to the position, it will definitely be difficult to convince the public. When the time comes, conflicts will arise within the sect. "

Hearing this, Zhao Heng also quickly echoed: "Master, the master is right. The disciple has little qualifications and no merit. If he rashly takes the position of the sect leader, it will only cause dissatisfaction from all parties and is not conducive to the unity of the sect."

Muxuan looked bitter after hearing what her grandfather and grandson said. She knew that what they said was reasonable, but she still couldn't help but murmur.

"Whoever dares to dissatisfy my disciple as the sect master, I will test the sword with him. If I can't beat him, don't you still have master?"

""

Zhao Heng and the ancestor looked at each other with complicated expressions.

"Okay, stop messing around. The position of sect leader can be temporarily vacant. Let Zhao Heng be the master of Bixiao Peak first, taking over the position of the late master Xu.

After he has established some meritorious deeds and accumulated some reputation in the sect, everything will naturally fall into place. "

The ancestor's words have clearly hinted that the position of sect leader can be reserved for Zhao Heng, so that he can gain some reputation points before taking the position.

After receiving her ancestor's promise, Muxuan nodded with satisfaction.

"Master is wise!"

The ancestor’s head was full of black lines, and he couldn’t help but sigh: “Oh, I also hope that you can grow up quickly, so that I can save my worries.

I am already on the verge of death. Ever since the sect leader and his junior brother died unexpectedly and the sect was attacked, I have had to go out and maintain the overall situation. I don’t know how long this old bone can last. "

Hearing this, Muxuan couldn't help but have a trace of worry flash in her eyes.

"Master, you have a long and blessed life, and you will definitely rule the sect forever!"

The ancestor shook his head and sighed, "Girl, please stop comforting me. I know my own body well.

If we can't make a breakthrough, my body won't be able to survive for a few more years. Now that the Yuhua Sect is in danger and the situation on the mainland is changing, I'm really worried. "

At this moment, the old man's eyes were full of worry and emotion.

Muxuan wanted to say a few words of comfort, but felt that whatever she said was a bit pale.

Sensing the disciple's mood, the ancestor turned to smile and said: "You don't have to worry too much. A few days ago, I went to the Righteous Alliance to participate in a conference, and now an opportunity has appeared in front of me.

If I can seize this opportunity and improve my cultivation a little bit, I might be able to live a few more years and help the Yuhua Sect and you go further. "

Hearing this, Muxuan's eyes lit up and she was a little curious.

"Master, what is the opportunity?"

The ancestor waved his hand and said: "You don't need to know now, you will know soon."

Zhao Heng on the side had a thought in his mind and guessed in his heart that the opportunity the ancestor mentioned should be the ancient ruins.

This news is currently only known to those in power in the Third Innate Realm from all parties, and even Master Muxuan does not know about it.

"Okay, please step back first. I need to stay in seclusion for a while to adjust my condition. The safety of our sect is in danger in the near future. I will leave it to you for the time being!"

Muxuan nodded quickly, "Master, rest assured that you are in seclusion. Now that Xiao Heng has returned, he can guard the imperial capital. I will sit in the sect and protect Master!"

"good!"

The ancestor nodded happily.

After a while, Zhao Heng and Muxuan left the back mountain.

In addition to the succession documents personally issued by the ancestor, Zhao Heng also had a batch of miraculous elixirs and even several magical artifacts given by the ancestor.

On that day, under the auspices of Muxuan, a grand inauguration ceremony was held for Zhao Heng. Bixiao Peak held a grand banquet and announced to the sect that Zhao Heng had become the new master of Bixiao Peak.

This incident also set off a wave of enthusiasm within the sect, giving the Yuhua Sect, which had been sluggish after the war between good and evil, a little more vitality.

At the dinner that night, Zhao Heng and many old acquaintances drank and chatted happily.

The long-lost laughter filled the sect. Everyone seemed to have forgotten the pain caused by the war and enjoyed the feast.

The banquet lasted until late at night. Zhao Heng, who was full of alcohol, returned to the main cave of Bixiao Peak. The moment he stepped into the practice room, the alcohol around him evaporated and his eyes instantly returned to clarity.
