The Giant Demon Clan's history was marked. From now on, the Giant Demon Clan would no longer be a rank 4 cultivation country, but a rank 5 cultivation country!
The country of Rosefinch placed a lot of importance on this matter. An Ascendant cultivator who didn't care about worldly matters personally received the Soul Transformation ancestor of the Giant Demon Clan.
In truth, there have been rumors for many years that the Giant Demon Clan had a Soul Transformation cultivator, but no one has ever confirmed this.
This speculation was very credible. After all, the junior master, Chi Hu, went to the Celestial Realm and brought back a large amount of celestial jades.
This news was confirmed when the Giant Demon Clan's old man, who was only at the Soul Transformation stage, requested for the Giant Demon Clan to be promoted to a rank 5 cultivation country.
The Giant Demon Clan wasn't originally from Suzaku; they came from another planet countless years ago. There was no need to doubt how powerful they were. Back then, Chi Hu was only at the mid stage of Soul Formation, but he was able to battle against a late stage Soul Formation cultivator.
After reaching the Soul Transformation stage, the Giant Demon Clan's bloodline will change. This can be seen from the fact that the country of Rosefinch sent out an Ascendant cultivator to help the Giant Demon Clan get promoted to a rank 5 cultivation country.
It has to be said that when a rank 5 cultivation country is promoted, the country of Rosefinch will only send out a late stage Soul Transformation cultivator to help the Giant Demon Clan get promoted.
The Giant Demon Clan's promotion was like a drop of ink that landed on Shimizu. At first, there wasn't much of a change, but as time passed, it caused an unknown spread.
All of this had nothing to do with the current Wang Lin. After he walked out of the valley and entered the formation with Feng Yushan and company, he looked back at the valley and then slowly disappeared.
The country of Rosefinch was located on the largest piece of land in Suzaku. It was called the continent of Rosefinch.
There were only four cultivation countries on the continent of Rosefinch. Aside from Rosefinch, the other three were all rank 5 cultivation countries. They were the three strongest rank 5 cultivation countries in all of Suzaku.
They were the Azure Dragon Nation, the Thousand Illusion Nation, and the Pilu Nation.
In the center of the three countries, which occupied half of the Rosefinch Continent, was the Rosefinch Country.
In the entire country of Rosefinch, even the mortals are a level higher than the mortals of other cultivation countries because they are people of Rosefinch.
There were three sects in Rosefinch Country. They were the Sky Jade Sect, the Earth Soul Sect, and the Human Path Immortal Sect.
Each of the three sects had an Ascendant cultivator. Together with the only late stage Ascendant cultivator on Mount Rosefinch who had the title Rosefinch, they formed the Suzaku, the ultimate force.
Of course, under these three sects, there were also countless cultivation clans. They attached themselves to the three sects, forming a dense network that provided a large number of disciples for the three sects.
At this moment, on the altar in Rosefinch Country, a thick pillar of light descended from the sky. It released a powerful spiritual pressure that spread in all directions.
In the back mountain of the Sky Jade Sect, Red Butterfly was sitting on a lotus leaf. Suddenly, she opened her eyes and looked into the distance. That was where the pillar of light was coming from.
Red Butterfly's eyes became cold and she softly said, "Is he here …"
On the altar, Wang Lin's figure gradually appeared. Behind him, Feng Yushan let out a sigh of relief. Since this Ceng Niu had come, then his mission was complete. He could now go to Rosefinch Mountain to report.
Aside from Wang Lin and Feng Yushan, there was another person standing on the altar.
This person was wearing a purple dress, and at the bottom of the dress was a purple butterfly perched on a lily.
She was wearing a blue veil that made her look both real and illusory.
Her eyes were faint and gave off a sense of serenity. Her nose was tall and her lips were light red.
She calmly stood there and her gaze fell on Wang Lin.
After Feng Yushan saw the woman, he respectfully said, "Greetings, third senior sister."
The woman gently nodded. She looked at Wang Lin and softly said:
"Are you fellow cultivator Ceng Niu?"
Wang Lin looked at the woman. He wasn't moved by her beauty at all. He clasped his hands and said, "I'm Ceng Niu!"
"Fellow cultivator Ceng, I'm a Human Path Immortal's disciple. My name is Bai Xue."
The woman smiled. Her skin was as white as snow. Two strands of her hair were in front of her chest and the rest were tied up in a bun. She looked elegant but didn't lose any of her temperament.
"Master told me to wait here and bring you over."
Wang Lin's expression was calm as he looked at the woman and said:
"Human Path Immortal?"
Bai Xue nodded and said, "The battle between fellow cultivator Ceng and Red Butterfly is set by Rosefinch Mountain in half a month. At that time, there will be emissaries from other cultivation countries coming to watch. Before that, I, the Human Path Immortal, will be responsible for helping fellow cultivator settle down."
Wang Lin pondered a bit and nodded.
Bai Xue faintly smiled and floated down from the altar. A ray of white light came from the distance. It landed under Bai Xue's feet and carried her into the air.
It was a snow-white Immortal Crane.
Wang Lin landed on the crane. The crane let out a cry, flapped its wings, and flew off into the distance.
Sun Yushan enviously looked at the crane. He flew off the altar and toward Rosefinch Mountain.
Bai Xue stood on the crane and occasionally looked at Wang Lin. Over the years, Ceng Niu had become very famous. Now that she saw him in person, she couldn't help but feel a bit disappointed. She originally thought that Ceng Niu was extremely talented, but looking at him now, he was extremely ordinary.
After pondering for a long time, Bai Xue softly asked, "Fellow cultivator Ceng, how confident are you in your battle against Red Butterfly?"
Wang Lin withdrew his gaze from Rosefinch Mountain and shook his head. "I'm not confident!"
Bai Xue was startled for a moment and then smiled. "Fellow cultivator Ceng, you don't need to be so humble."
Wang Lin ignored the woman and continued to look at the ground. He memorized the terrain. The map in his hand only had a simple description of the Suzaku continent; it wasn't very detailed.
Although Wang Lin secretly guessed that Rosefinch Mountain was preparing to accept him as a core disciple, he still maintained his vigilance.
After pondering a bit, Rosefinch Mountain asked, "Fellow cultivator Bai Xue, what sects does Rosefinch Mountain have?"
Bai Xue's voice was very pleasant to listen to. As she explained, Wang Lin gained some understanding of Rosefinch Mountain.
"The little sister Red Butterfly that you fought is a disciple of the Heavenly Jade Sect."
With that, Bai Xue let out a sigh and looked at Ceng Niu again. She had heard from her teacher that Rosefinch Mountain had arranged for Ceng Niu to join their sect in the future.
Wang Lin's eyes were calm and he didn't speak.
The crane wasn't fast, but it was very stable. As it flew, it passed many mountains, and Wang Lin secretly remembered them.
The country of Rosefinch was filled with spiritual energy, something no cultivation country could compare to. For example, Wang Lin had seen more than 10 spirit veins along the way.
It was because of these spirit veins that the country of Rosefinch was filled with spiritual energy.
While flying, Wang Lin's eyes suddenly narrowed as he looked into the distance. There was a towering mountain that pierced through the clouds. It was like a celestial mountain.
The cranes the two of them were riding didn't fly toward the mountain but went around it. Although Wang Lin's expression was calm, his heart skipped a beat.
Bai Xue softly said, "That is the Heavenly Jade Sect. It is protected by a formation, so I can't see what's inside."
Just at this moment, a red figure descended from the celestial mountain. He stood on a white cloud and looked over.
Wang Lin's eyes became cold as he silently stared at the red figure.
It wasn't until the crane flew further and further away that the red figure disappeared from his sight.
Red Butterfly stood outside the Heavenly Jade Sect and watched Wang Lin slowly disappear into the distance. Her expression became even colder and her eyes became even colder. A gentle breeze blew by and landed on her right arm. Her empty sleeve fluttered in the wind, giving off a sense of killing intent.
"He really came!" Red Butterfly turned around and disappeared into the Heavenly Jade Sect.
Wang Lin stood on the back of the crane. His gaze was cold as he looked at Bai Xue, who had a calm expression. This woman must have had her own reasons for choosing this path.
Not long after, the crane flew into a mountain range that looked like a dragon. The crane pierced through the clouds and flew deeper into the depths of the mountain range.
In the distance, a huge basin appeared before Wang Lin. The basin was very large and there were countless beautiful buildings. After the crane flew in, Bai Xue jumped off the back of the crane.
Wang Lin stepped forward and walked down the stairs.
After landing, Bai Xue turned around and softly said, "Fellow cultivator Ceng Niu, this isn't a Human Path Immortal Sect, but Master's residence. Master is currently cultivating. You can choose any one of the three rows of houses to the north. Once Master is done cultivating, he will see you."
After she finished speaking, she clasped her hands toward Wang Lin before turning around and disappearing.
Wang Lin knew that he couldn't casually use his divine sense in Rosefinch, or else it would cause unnecessary trouble. After listening to Bai Xue's words, he walked toward the north.
Along the way, he encountered a few servants. They all had numb expressions and didn't even look at Wang Lin.
Not long after, Wang Lin arrived at the north. Seeing the three rows of luxurious houses, he chose one and entered it.
The room had everything he needed. Wang Lin sat cross-legged on the bed and began to ponder.
From the moment he entered the State of Rosefinch, he had felt a sense of danger. Although this feeling was very faint, it was still there.
Wang Lin knew that with his cultivation level, there were many people in the State of Rosefinch who could kill him. Any Soul Transformation cultivator could kill him.
The State of Rosefinch's attitude toward him was a bit strange. Someone had actually come to pick him up. Presumably, Bai Xue's master would also summon him.
After pondering for a bit, Wang Lin closed his eyes and began to cultivate.
It was dusk, and it was dark outside. There were no lights in the room. As time passed, it became even darker.
In the darkness, Wang Lin suddenly felt a sense of loneliness. He looked around at the unfamiliar room, the unfamiliar sect, and the unfamiliar State of Rosefinch. He couldn't find any sense of existence.
Wang Lin let out a sigh. Just as he was about to light the candle, his expression suddenly changed. He looked at the door, and a knocking sound echoed out.
"Knock, knock, knock …"
… Finally, he knew the bitterness of reading three chapters in a row.
Writing was bitter.
Looking at the monthly votes, he felt a mixture of sweetness and bitterness. The last few days of 2009 had been so fulfilling …
