169: Return to Xianhe Gate

Lin Zifeng exchanged a few pleasantries with the Golden Saber Sect Master, which could be considered 'paying respects to the mountain top'.

Lin Zifeng's objective was to make the outside world, especially other Immortal Sects, 'recognize' the existence of the Immortal Crane Sect.

Then his goal would be achieved.

For the Immortal Crane Sect, he had truly worried himself sick.

Moreover, now that the Immortal Crane Sect's existence had been established, from the caravan to the Golden Saber Sect, it also subtly revealed its own strength.

As long as he seized the opportunity to develop it, everything would fall into place naturally.

Lin Zifeng left the Golden Saber Sect and immediately returned to Immortal Crane Mountain to find his master.

He would also teach his master the reinforced version of the cultivation method.

The Golden Saber Sect Master watched Lin Zifeng's departing figure, and after much thought, he dismissed his original idea.

He did not know what negative consequences the appearance of the Immortal Crane Sect would have for the Golden Saber Sect.

However, since the Immortal Crane Sect was located within the Immortal Spirit Mountain Range, it was actually quite far from the Golden Saber Sect.

The Golden Saber Sect Master pondered for a moment; according to the radiation range of the Immortal Spirit Mountain Range's periphery, at most, the Golden Saber Sect would have to give up places like Peaceful Town... which was not impossible.

After all, the Golden Saber Sect did not really value these places; for one, there was hardly any income, and for another, they did not produce 'disciples'.

Moreover, the distance was also at the edge, far and troublesome...

Unless absolutely necessary, the Golden Saber Sect Master was unwilling to be antagonistic towards another Immortal Sect; it was best for everyone to develop together.

If possible, establishing diplomatic relations would also be good; more mutual exchange would benefit the disciples' improvement.

The Golden Saber Sect Master actually came from a medium-sized sect, but that sect provoked a large sect, resulting in a war between the two Immortal Sects, and ultimately the medium-sized sect was destroyed.

The Golden Saber Sect Master was one of the 'deserters', who luckily escaped, traveled far to another land, and upon seeing no Immortal Sect here, he conceived the idea of establishing one.

Finally, he founded the Golden Saber Sect and developed it there for thirty years.

It was precisely because there was no Immortal Sect here that the Golden Saber Sect's development was so slow.

For one, there was no one to exchange with, no places for trials... no secret realms, no resources... otherwise, there wouldn't be a complete lack of Immortal Sects.

Now that an Immortal Crane Sect had appeared, perhaps it was a good thing?

The Golden Saber Sect Master couldn't figure it out, so he called over a sect elder: "Prepare yourself, take three disciples, and five days from now, depart for the Immortal Spirit Mountain Range to visit the Immortal Crane Sect!"

"Understood!" The sect elder nodded and immediately went to carry out the task.

He understood the Sect Master's meaning: to probe the other party's background, and also to 'establish diplomatic relations'.

Although the journey was long, it was nothing for an immortal.

However, this return visit needed some preparation, for example, to show off some of their 'might', after all, fists are the hard truth; although they weren't going to cause trouble, they at least shouldn't be looked down upon.

So, they needed to bring some talented disciples, but not the 'pillar disciples' of the sect, lest any accidents occur, which would be regrettable.

Lin Zifeng returned to Immortal Crane Mountain in two days.

"Well, well!" Lin Zifeng looked at the greatly changed Immortal Crane Mountain; in just five days, his master had actually created a decent mountain gate and mountain path.

The three large characters 'Immortal Crane Sect' above were written excellently by his master, who was quite good at calligraphy! They looked very lively and ethereal.

Lin Zifeng's master was still very formidable; although his cultivation talent was somewhat lacking, it must be said that he was very capable in other aspects; although he couldn't compare to true super geniuses, he was much stronger than ordinary people.

After all, being able to create the White Crane Skill and the White Crane Fist, which integrates fist, leg, and movement techniques, his comprehension was definitely not low.

"Master! I'm back!" Lin Zifeng shouted loudly.

Then, Spiritual Crane Taoist, with a rosy complexion and looking incredibly healthy, walked out: "You're back? How was it?"

"Haha! Significant results!" Lin Zifeng laughed and said, looking around; many houses had also been built: "Master, your speed is truly fast!"

"Hahahaha~ Having nothing else to do, I've just been working on this." Spiritual Crane Taoist smiled and said: "Come, come in and sit; tell your master all about your trip outside!"

"No problem!" Lin Zifeng nodded, and then told Spiritual Crane Taoist about the caravan and the Golden Saber Sect, including everything he had seen along the way.

"Tsk tsk, it seems you'll have no problem becoming a Sect Master in the future!" Spiritual Crane Taoist smiled and said.

"Eh! It's better for Master to take that role! I can't handle the position of Sect Master." Lin Zifeng waved his hands repeatedly and said.

"Hahahaha~" Spiritual Crane Taoist couldn't help but laugh; with Lin Zifeng's temperament, if he really became the Sect Master, he would probably find it quite difficult.

"Oh, right, Master, there's new progress in the cultivation methods!" Lin Zifeng said to Spiritual Crane Taoist.

"Oh?!" Spiritual Crane Taoist raised his eyebrows; Lin Zifeng's opportunity was indeed impressive!

Lin Zifeng handed the upgraded versions of the cultivation method and the Spirit Crane Fist to Spiritual Crane Taoist.

"Excellent! Excellent!" Spiritual Crane Taoist recorded everything, turning them into cultivation methods; these were all sect reserves.

White Crane Fist, Spirit Crane Fist, White Crane Skill, Spirit Crane Skill, Spirit Crane Heart Sutra Skill.

These could later be categorized as outer, inner, and true disciple levels.

Of course, this was only temporary; Spiritual Crane Taoist felt that with Lin Zifeng's ability, there would definitely be even higher levels in the future!

The cultivation method's goal was at least the Immortal Crane Skill, as it fit the name of the Immortal Crane Sect!

"Excellent!" Spiritual Crane Taoist smiled and contentedly placed them in the 'Scripture Depository'; although it was called a Scripture Depository, only the first floor had been completed, and it would need to be gradually expanded in the future.

"Oh, right, my dear disciple~ I have some good news, guess what it is!" Spiritual Crane Taoist said with a smile, looking at Lin Zifeng.

"Hm?" Lin Zifeng was slightly stunned when he heard Spiritual Crane Taoist's words, then he thought of something and carefully examined Spiritual Crane Taoist.

He immediately sensed the difference in Spiritual Crane Taoist.

"Master, you... broke through?!" Lin Zifeng's face lit up with joy.

"Hahahaha! That's right!" Spiritual Crane Taoist laughed heartily, his face flushed as he spoke.

Lin Zifeng was happy for his master: "That's wonderful! We must celebrate properly today!"

"Hahahaha~" Spiritual Crane Taoist laughed loudly: "I've already prepared everything! Come in!"

Spiritual Crane Taoist said with a smile, then led Lin Zifeng into the original courtyard.

In the courtyard, on a stone table, there was a pot of wine and two cups.

"Wait a moment, I'll go make the food!" Spiritual Crane Taoist said to Lin Zifeng.

"Eh! Master, I can do that!" Lin Zifeng quickly said: "This is to celebrate for you!"

Lin Zifeng pressed Spiritual Crane Taoist down onto the stool, then walked into the kitchen.

Incidentally, from the system, he spent 10,000 source points to exchange for Master-level cooking skills; of course, it was at the mortal level, but it was enough.

At this moment, Lin Zifeng realized that his source points had actually reached 2.58 million! They had increased by over two million source points!

Lin Zifeng thought about it and figured it must be related to the Immortal Crane Sect's matters; of course, his master's breakthrough should account for the majority of the source points.
