Chapter 60 - Elder

Huang Long looked at the bottles and let out a snort. "The river water from the back mountain is not allowed to be taken out. I'll be taking these two bottles. You can go and rest. Remember to come meet me tomorrow and I'll take you to the scripture library to find a suitable cultivation technique for you," he said.

After Wang Lin heard this, he became very excited. On his way out, he respectfully said goodbye. Although his current cultivation was high, his only technique was the attraction technique.

After Wang Lin left, Huang Long turned. He respectfully bowed and said, "Elder Shangguan, do you think what Wang Lin said was true? And how should we deal with him?"

A skinny old man wearing a blue robe walked out into the main hall. His face was very gloomy."How much of it is true? Huang Long, can you not tell that that little guy didn't say a single word of truth?"

Huang Long revealed an embarrassed expression. This was one of the ten foundation building elders. In the cultivation world, strength was what mattered the most. Him being the sect head and his fellow martial brothers being elders was only a front put up for the outside world.

The rule of the Heng Yue Sect was that if one reached the Foundation Building stage, they could become an elder and enjoy that role's privileges. If one achieved Core Formation, then they would become one of the true elders of the Heng Yue Sect, and if one reached Nascent Soul, then they would be considered an ancestor of the Heng Yue Sect.

Normally, the ten foundation building elders were in closed door training, but, after hearing the shocking news from the Xuan Dao Sect, Huang Long quickly found the ten elders to tell the two Core Formation true elders about this matter.

Wang Lin's appearance was very unexpected for Huang Long, so he took the chance to bring Wang Lin here to question him and have the Foundation Building elders question him as well.

Elder Shangguan took a look at the bottles in Huang Long's hand. He scanned them with his divine sense, then said, "This little brat did say one thing that was true. This is indeed the river water from the back mountain, and, if consumed every day, it will help with cultivation."

Huang Long hesitated for a while. "Elder Shangguan, do you think the technique Wang Lin used was really the attraction technique?" he asked.

Elder Shangguan looked at Huang Long and said, "I saw his matches and I can confirm that the technique he used really was the attraction technique."

Huang Long's expression changed greatly. "Is it really the attraction technique? But how could it be so powerful that it could even catch magical treasures?" he asked.

Elder Shangguan coldly snorted and said, "Any technique, after practicing for an extensive period of time, will have some special effect, although it's nothing to Foundation Building cultivators. This attraction technique is the most basic technique in the cultivation world. Do you still not understand that the more basic the technique, the longer its history?"

Huang Long quickly nodded in agreement.

Elder Shangguan pondered for a while, then said, "This child's cultivation is indeed at the 3rd layer, but he has way too much spiritual energy in his body, so I can't clearly check it all. My guess is that his power is that of 14th layer Qi Condensation, so he should be able to reach the Foundation Building stage soon. It is ok for a disciple like this to have his secrets, because the sect is in a very dangerous state. Hmph, the Xuan Dao Sect really deserves to be called a small sect. Sending some Qi Condensation juniors as elders and daring to try to win Wang Lin over in front of us with voice transmission!"
