The Prodigies War-Chapter 2775 Extreme Dao Battlefield

The nine deputy pavilion masters ‘unanimously’ agreed to reward Lin Xun with a Nirvana Spirit Myriad-Transformation Pill, causing quite a commotion around the arena. However, no one felt that it was undeserved.

The feats Lin Xun had achieved today could easily be recorded in the history books of the Origin Sect, and continue to bring glory for thousands of years! Only some of the more senior cultivators were aware that Fu Wenli, Qi Xiaoyun, and the others had likely been very uncomfortable when they agreed...

Lin Xun had won over the hearts of almost everyone in the Origin Sect, and Dugu Yong had taken advantage of the situation. Fu Wenli and the others had no choice but to agree due to the circumstances. For the man of the hour, it was truly an unexpected surprise!

Xuan Feiling smilingly asked, "Since the Origin Emptiness Pavilion has come up with such generous rewards, Brother Fang, shouldn’t your Origin Clarity Pavilion also show some sincerity?"

There’s more??

The crowd was taken aback.

However, Fang Daoping said, "The Origin Clarity Pavilion naturally won’t be stingy. Lin Xun is currently at the mid Heavenly Longevity Stage and shouldn’t be far from the advanced Heavenly Longevity Stage. So let's do this, my Origin Clarity Pavilion is willing to offer the position of deacon. As long as Lin Xun's cultivation reaches the advanced Heavenly Longevity Stage, he can be promoted to become one of the Origin Clarity Pavilion’s deacons without any assessment."

It was an earth-shaking announcement! The atmosphere immediately flared up and the place was immediately abuzz with conversation.

A deacon! Although a deacon didn’t have as much influence as the peak masters of the Great Nine Peaks, it was a position on equal footing with them!

The conditions to become a deacon were usually exceedingly strict. Reaching the advanced Heavenly Longevity Stage was only the bare minimum. In addition, it was necessary to complete a mission from the deputy pavilion master of the Origin Clarity Pavilion, which was often extremely difficult.

Finally, one would have to challenge one of the deacons from the three pavilions to take their place. Now, however, the deputy pavilion master of the Origin Clarity Pavilion, Fang Daoping, had promised Lin Xun he could become a deacon as long as he achieved a cultivation breakthrough. How could anyone not be shocked by this?

"This isn’t appropriate!" Tang Qiu, another deputy pavilion master of the Origin Clarity Pavilion, was the first to object. "There has never been such a precedent in our sect even in the past. Moreover, Lin Xun has only been a deputy deacon for a few months, how can you casually promise him the position of deacon?"

Fang Daoping flatly said, "Deputy Pavilion Master Tang, I said that he will only become a deacon when his cultivation advances."

With a dark expression, Tang Qiu replied, "If Lin Xun is allowed to become a deacon, one of the current twelve deacons of the Origin Clarity Pavilion must be relieved of their position. Not to mention, Lin Xun is the deputy deacon of the Origin Sky Pavilion, but now seeks to occupy a deacon position in Origin Clarity Pavilion. That...can’t be justified, right? ”

The atmosphere grew much quieter. Everyone realized that Tang Qiu and other senior cultivators would not easily agree to this. They would not tolerate such a rapid promotion for Lin Xun.

"Hahaha, Tang Qiu is right. Lin Xun is the deputy deacon of my Origin Sky Pavilion, how can I let your Origin Clarity Pavilion try to take our talent."

Xuan Feiling laughed heartily. His statement made Tang Qiu breathe a sigh of relief. However, the following sentence made Fu Wenli and Qi Xiaoyun anxious.

Xuan Feiling continued, "Since your Origin Clarity Pavilion is willing to fork out a deacon position, my Origin Sky Pavilion naturally can't be stingy. So let's do this, I’ll set the same condition, as long as Lin Xun achieves a cultivation breakthrough, he can also become a deacon of the Origin Sky Pavilion."

The entire place erupted and the atmosphere grew increasingly delicate. Authority had always been more valuable than external things. In the Origin Sect, the greater the authority, the more cultivation resources obtained, and the more power one could wield!

A deacon was already equal to the peak masters of the Nine Great Peaks, and had the authority to dispatch deputy deacons and disciples to carry out tasks for them. Additionally, a deacon could select core disciples from the Nine Great Peaks, and could...

In essence, such power was far from comparable to that of a deputy deacon. This was why there was such a big commotion when Fang Daoping and Xuan Feiling proposed to give Lin Xun the position of deacon, and why Tang Qiu would resist so strongly.

By this juncture, Fu Wenli and Qi Xiaoyun had also become very anxious. They were also deputy pavilion masters of the Origin Sky Pavilion, and naturally wouldn’t want Lin Xun to be promoted to deacon in their territory.

"This is very inappropriate!" Fu Wenli said in a deep voice, "Every one of the twelve deacons of Origin Sky Pavilion has made countless contributions for the sect. Each of them is a veteran with a solid reputation. How can you casually make them give up their position to Lin Xun?"

Qi Xiaoyun also said with a cloudy expression, "Lin Xun's contributions today are indeed great, but we have already made a special exception and rewarded him with a Nirvana Spirit Myriad Transformation Pill. It clearly will be bending the rules too far if he is awarded the position of deacon on top of that."

They had to fight to the end on this matter and not let Lin Xun have his way! Xuan Feiling frowned. He had anticipated that there would be resistance when he proposed this reward, but never expected such fierce opposition from Fu Wenli.

"Elders, thank you for your kindness." At this moment, Lin Xun finally opened his mouth to speak and his voice spread across the area, "This reward is too much. This junior would not dare to accept even if I was awarded it."

Everyone raised their eyebrows. Xuan Feiling, Dugu Yong, and Fang Daoping looked at each other and bitterly smiled inside. Didn't this kid know that they were seeking benefits for him? On the other hand, Fu Wenli and the other bigwigs who hated Lin Xun breathed a sigh of relief.

"Heh heh, everyone, you can see that even Lin Xun himself has declined. It's better to drop this matter." Fu Wenli laughed.

"That’s how it should have been from the start." Qi Xiaoyun was expressionless.

"Lin Xun is tactful, so we shouldn’t force the issue." Tang Qiu displayed a skin-deep smile.

This made Xuan Feiling’s, Dugu Yong’s and others’ expressions turn a little ugly. However, Lin Xun suddenly chuckled heartily and said, "Don't worry, when I’m qualified to become a deacon, I will naturally follow the rules of the sect to earn it, so as to avoid any gossip!"

Fu Wenli’s and the others’ expressions stiffened. How could they not hear the faint mockery in Lin Xun's words? Upon hearing the declaration, numerous people felt their blood boil and enthusiastically shouted.

"You’re great, Deputy Deacon Lin!"

"That’s how a man should be!"

"Yeah, who can say anything if you earn it based on your ability?"

"When the time comes, all of us will be witnesses for Deputy Deacon Lin, so that there won’t be any annoyances when you’re promoted to deacon."

In the Origin Sect, no matter how high or low one’s cultivation, not a single one of them was stupid. In fact, each disciple was smarter and more talented than the next. How could they not see Fu Wenli’s, Qi Xiaoyun's and the others’ opposition to Lin Xun?

His performance had already stimulated and heated up their blood, making them willingly cheer for him. This was the power of earning the people’s hearts.

Fu Wenli’s and the others’ hearts felt much heavier at this scene. After today's events, the reputation Lin Xun established had undoubtedly penetrated into the hearts of the Origin Sect!

The senior cultivators who had remained neutral, such as First Peak Master Yue Wuchou, finally changed their stance, beginning to admire and support Lin Xun. These changes would undoubtedly solidify his position in the sect, allowing him to take root even deeper!

Xuan Feiling said, "Since Lin Xun has made his decision, I won't mention this matter any further. However, it won’t sit well with me to only reward a single Nirvana Spirit Myriad Transformation Pill."

His declaration made Fu Wenli and the others feel vexed again.

Still not finished!?

Dugu Yong asked in a timely manner, "What else does Brother Xuan think should be rewarded?"

Xuan Feiling answered, "Although Lin Xun's combat power is strong, his cultivation is still only at the mid Heavenly Longevity Stage, making it difficult for him to properly exert his potential. So, why not let him go to the Extreme Dao Battlefield to train for a period of time? It might give him the chance to raise his cultivation as quickly as possible."

The Extreme Dao Battlefield!

Many people’s hearts shuddered, revealing varying expressions of envy, astonishment, fear, and yearning. The Extreme Dao Battlefield was one of the forbidden zones in the Origin Sect, which was specially created by the Origin Sect Master for Immortal experts. Anyone who entered would have to endure unimaginable and extreme tempering.

Since ancient times, an unknown number of Immortal-level bigwigs had tempered themselves in the Extreme Dao Battlefield and achieved extreme breakthroughs in their cultivation. However, many Immortal-level bigwigs also failed to withstand the terrifying tempering, creating problems in their heart state and cultivation.

Even so, not just anyone was eligible to enter. Among the three pavilions, usually only Immortals who made great contributions would be permitted to enter the Extreme Dao Battlefield for training.

Despite the high level of danger, the Extreme Dao Battlefield was an excellent place to achieve cultivation breakthroughs! This alone made it almost irresistible to Immortal experts.

"That’s decided then."

This time, Dugu Yong made a decision without asking for anyone’s opinion. It was because the Extreme Dao Battlefield was under the jurisdiction of the Origin Emptiness Pavilion. Fu Wenli and the others naturally had no opportunity to object.

Frankly speaking, it wouldn’t be easy for them to object either. They had already stopped Lin Xun from getting the position of deacon, so if they tried to prevent him from entering the Extreme Dao Battlefield now, the entire sect would likely oppose them strongly this time. It was depressing, to say the least.

With the matter finalized, the final rewards given to Lin Xun were a Nirvana Spirit Myriad Transformation Pill and an opportunity to enter the Extreme Dao Battlefield! He was naturally more than satisfied with this outcome.

That night, the entire Origin Sect gathered in front of the central hall to participate in the celebration banquet. While there was usually a celebration banquet after the Nine Peaks Dao Contest for those who achieved great results, Lin Xun became the sole focus of the banquet this time.

Fu Wenli, Qi Xiaoyun, and the others only stayed for a moment and left as soon as they could. After their departure, the atmosphere grew even more lively.

Many familiar and unfamiliar figures from the Origin Sect took the initiative to come forward to toast Lin Xun, and he naturally didn’t refuse anyone. It wasn't until the wee hours of the morning the grand banquet finally came to an end.

Origin Sky Mountain.

After returning to his cave dwelling, Lin Xun couldn't help but fall into deep thought as he recalled today’s events. The Nine Peaks Dao Contest originally had nothing to do with him, but at the end of the contest, the spears of many powerful factions were pointed at him alone.

The Shaman Sect, the Zen Sect, and the Ten Immortal Giants... They had clearly come prepared and had sought to use this chance to probe the extent of his abilities. After they left, he could expect the factions behind them to add him in their list of great foes.

However, Lin Xun wasn’t worried about such things. At the very least, with the protection of the Origin Sect, these hostile factions wouldn’t dare to act rashly. The only thing he had to take note of was to be extra prudent whenever he left the sect for extended periods in the future.

As his thoughts moved to today’s harvest, he couldn't help but grin. Receiving the Nirvana Spirit Myriad Transformation Pill and the opportunity to enter the Extreme Dao Battlefield were definitely a nice surprise.

More importantly, after today's events, he had won the recognition and support of most people in the Origin Sect. This was far more precious than any other rewards!
