Dao Yuting?s growth has always been guided by her personal master Wang Lin, who arranged for all her opportunities, magic items and elixirs.

The Gui Water Ice Saber was the only magic treasure given to her by Lin Feng. It was her reward for being the first person among the second-generation Direct Disciples to achieve the Immortal Soul Stage.

This magic treasure originated from the Freshwater Holy Man whom Lin Feng defeated years ago. He occupied Mount Liubo of the East Sea after the Flowing Waves Holy Man left, and began crafting a magic treasure. But when he was a step away from succeeding, the Kui Cow King brought Lin Feng and the others back to Mount Liubo and chanced upon the Freshwater Holy Man?s plan.

After that, the Spiritual Sea Horse King and his tribe were saved while the Freshwater Holy Man was restrained. The magic treasure he was crafting naturally fell into Lin Feng?s possession.

The magic treasure itself was of considerable quality. The Freshwater Holy Man returned to Mount Liubo those years ago precisely for this treasure, but he walked into his own trap.

With the treasure in Lin Feng?s possession, Lin Feng improvised and added some precious materials that the Freshwater Holy Man had no way of obtaining, and successfully completed crafting the treasure. He even increased the quality of this treasure. Even though it was only in the Gestation realm, it boasted extraordinary power and outstanding quality.

Lin Feng always had profound considerations when choosing a treasure for his disciples. This Gui Water Ice Saber was extremely compatible with Dao Yuting and suited her well.

The icy blue saber radiance landed on the Taiji diagram created by Dao Yuting?s Immortal Soul. The glacial Taiji diagram rotated once amidst the void space and transformed back into Dao Yuting, standing before Lin Feng and Wang Lin.

Dao Yuting bowed to Lin Feng and Wang Lin. ?Thank you Grandmaster for giving me this treasure.?

Lin Feng replied, ?Train hard, and let your abhijina and mana reach new heights. The Ice and Soul Clouds are still waiting for you.?

Dao Yuting nodded and replied, ?Thank you Grandmaster. Thank you Master.?

She was very familiar with the Ice and Soul Clouds, having heard of it since she was young. Back then, it was the Heaven Lake Sect?s strongest magic treasure besides the Dual Polarity Heavenly Mountain, their Mahayana magic treasure which founded their sect.

Following the Heaven Lake Sect?s destruction, their resident elder was captured and this magic treasure landed in Lin Feng?s possession. As time passed, Lin Feng finally mastered it.

For Dao Yuting, the Heaven Lake Sect did not leave her with particularly comforting memories.

When Dao Yuting first entered the sect, the Dual Polarity Peak, the Original Soul of the Dual Polarity Heavenly Mountain, once had a long chat with her. Besides them, only Lin Feng and Wang Lin knew the detailed contents of their conversation. Even Xiao Yan and Zhu Yi were unsure, while Lin Feng and Wang Lin were not present when it occurred.

But what was certain was, the Dual Polarity Peak was definitely not coercing Dao Yuting in any way, otherwise Lin Feng and Wang Lin would not allow them to talk to each other.

After that long chat, Dao Yuting and the Dual Polarity Peak seemingly reached a mutual consensus. And since then, Lin Feng and Wang Lin first ascertained that Dao Yuting would not become the First Disciple of the Forest Abode among Wang Lin?s second-generation disciples. Lin Feng and Wang Lin only acknowledged this fact due to Dao Yuting?s own will, otherwise the Dual Polarity Peak would not be able to persuade her either.

And also, from then on, Dao Yuting knew that the Ice and Soul Clouds would be given to her one day. It already became something she pre-ordered. And the Gui Water Ice Saber that Lin Feng gave him today was her reward for being the first second-generation disciple to reach the Immortal Soul Stage.

All the cultivators from the various forces of the Divine Lands were slightly stunned as they looked at Dao Yuting. ?Even a second-generation disciple has achieved the Immortal Soul Stage …?

News of her accomplishments naturally created a smaller disturbance in the world than Xiao Yi, Zhu Yi, Wang Lin and Shi Tianhao. However, this was a message to the world, and the events that would follow after this frightened everyone.

Besides Dao Yuting, the Celestial Sect?s second-generation disciples also included Lin Tong, Tang Jun, Han Yang, Ying Luozha, Zhou Yuncong, Yang Tie, Huang Zhenting …

The various formidable second-generation Direct Disciples of the Celestial Sect would follow in Dao Yuting?s footsteps and soar towards new heights, channeling their immense and frightening potential into incredible strength.

With the rise of one strong cultivator after another, the strength of the entire Celestial Sect was reaching terrifying levels.

Such a sight made all the other cultivators in the Divine Lands slightly queasy just thinking about it.

The cultivators on the Great Zhou Empire?s territory have already dispersed. For some of the cultivators who could still communicate with each other, they all shared mixed feelings as they watched Dao Yuting in the lighted illusion.

They were all cultivators who originated from the Heaven Lake Sect. After their former sect perished, their sect?s territory was conquered by the Royal House of the Northern Tribes while they themselves came under the custody of the Great Zhou Empire.

Thinking back to the Battle at Xiling City and now looking at Dao Yuting and the Celestial Sect, these cultivators all felt an otherworldly sense of familiarity. Both the Heaven Lake Sect back then and the Great Zhou Empire now were grossly outmatched by the Celestial Sect.

In a large city along the Great Zhou Empire?s southern border, there stood a young man observing the lighted illusion before him expressionlessly.

This young man has already formed his Nascent Soul, and was well-respected by everyone around him as a Nascent Soul cultivator. Yet, he fixed his eyes solely on Dao Yuting, ignoring everyone else.

This man was the former successor of the Heaven Lake Sect, the Sect Leader Cao Wei?s Immediate Disciple ? Song Qingyuan.

Previously, he had a complicated relationship with the woman in the lighted illusion. Thinking back, it was like a dream.

He once brought her endless fear and torment.

But now, he has long been just a small fry in Dao Yuting?s eyes. As for the nightmares he brought her, Dao Yuting had no intention of seeking revenge.

Instead, it was Song Qingyuan who agonized deeply over the long years after the Battle at Xiling City and the Spiritual Conference of the Kunlun Mountains. He first felt frustrated and aggrieved, then terrified, before finally soothing his emotions after so many years.

He personally spectated the Spiritual Conference of the Kunlun Mountains. Back then, he abruptly realized that even though Dao Yuting, who was in the Middle Aurous Core Stage, did not clinch the top title at the conference, she already outmatched him in the Advanced Aurous Core Stage. Furthermore, the growth Dao Yuting displayed left Song Qingyuan way behind in the dust.

Now, Song Qingyuan successfully cultivated his Nascent Soul with the help of the Great Zhou Empire. Only he knew the hardships he had to endure. But looking at Dao Yuting again, he saw that both of them were worlds apart in terms of strength.

?Fate is toying with me …? Such a thought inevitably surfaced in Song Qingyuan?s heart. He could no longer feel any sense of anger or grief, instead being extremely relieved that Dao Yuting was not bent on seeking revenge.

Mulling over his twisted fate and the ever-changing state of the world, Song Qingyuan?s gaze landed on the people in front of Dao Yuting. There was nothing more to say about Lin Feng, but Song Qingyuan still had mixed feelings as he stared at Wang Lin.

When Dao Yuting was still in the Heaven Lake Sect, she first became known to the world during the Spiritual Conference of Huanghai. It was the same for Wang Lin.

However, Wang Lin was merely at the Beginner Foundation Establishment Stage during that conference while Dao Yuting was at the Advanced Foundation Establishment Stage, and no one would have expected that the former would become the latter?s master. And today, the former has nurtured and guided the latter, and witnessed her achieving the Immortal Soul Stage.

For Song Qingyuan who was already in the Advanced Aurous Core Stage back then, he could not even look up to them. The gap between them was too great, making it particularly unbearable for him.

Suddenly, Wang Lin shifted his calm and steady gaze and twitched his neck. His gaze transcended boundless void space and took a brief sweeping glance at Song Qingyuan.

Song Qingyuan shuddered and lowered his head, not daring to meet Wang Lin?s gaze. After a while, he let out a soft sigh.

Atop Mount Yujing, Dao Yuting kept her Gui Water Ice Saber, bowed to Lin Feng and Wang Lin, then took her leave.

All the Celestial Sect disciples on the mountain congratulated Dao Yuting, while the various powerhouses from the respective human forces of the Divine Lands eased their emotions, nodded, and instructed their disciples to head for Mount Kunlun to offer their compliments.

Some of them were heading to Mount Kunlun personally to congratulate Dao Yuting. Even though she was only a second-generation Direct Disciple of the Celestial Sect, she was now an actual cultivator at the Immortal Soul Stage. Her status and strength could no longer be underestimated, and neither could she be held in the same regard as ordinary Immortal Soul cultivators since she hails from the Celestial Sect. Her master Wang Lin and her predecessors before her, as well as Yue Hongyan and her peers, all proved this point time and time again.

And just when everyone thought that the announcements ended, the Bell of Destiny above Lin Feng?s head rang once again!

Everyone gasped at the lighted illusion and regained their composure, carefully counting the number of chimes. The result shocked them even more.

Thirty-six chimes!

This time, the Bell of Destiny rang thirty-six times.

Based on the Celestial Sect?s practices, thirty-six chimes of the Bell of Destiny signified that the Grandmaster Lin Feng accepted a disciple! It was not that the Celestial Sect was opening its doors to new recruits; Lin Feng was personally taking in an Immediate Disciple!

After taking in Li Yuanfang and Ge Qingwu, Lin Feng has never accepted another Immediate Disciple. Furthermore, all the previous Immediate Disciples he acknowledged were outstanding prodigies and extraordinary elites, renowned figures across the Divine Lands.

And after the recent War of the Two Worlds, Lin Feng alone fended off the demon tribes and altered the tides of battle, allowing his every move to be seen by the world. Entering his sect was already an uphill feat, much less being accepted as his Immediate Disciple.

Very few know this, but the Royal House of the Northern Tribes once pleaded for one of their sons to become Lin Feng?s Immediate Disciple. They were turned down.

Being an Immediate Disciple of the Leader of the Celestial Sect was a huge honor. Everyone knew that Lin Feng has never been a bad judge of character. The disciples he picks may be pearls tainted with dust, but they certainly have their redeeming qualities. And after they enter the sect, they are bestowed with a respectable status, a brilliant future, a wealth of resources, and the most elite mantras and abhijina in all of the Divine Lands.

Hence, how could one not be astonished when Lin Feng accepts another Immediate Disciple?

The whole of the Divine Lands turned silent, completely fixated on the lighted illusion. They wanted to see which lucky person obtained the golden ticket to immediate success!
