"Join the Holy Sect?" Chen Feng looked at the old man with rosacea in surprise, with a hint of vigilance in his eyes: "Senior, are you kidding?"
"Do you think I'm kidding?" The old man with rosacea sighed, "If it weren't so hard to find a spiritual god, why would I look for an acquired spiritual god like you?"
"Haha." Chen Feng was speechless. He didn't know whether the old man with rosacea was praising him or belittling him.
"Well, since you don't trust me, I won't force you. But please give me some time to explain the whole story." The man with rosacea sighed and said.
"Please speak, senior." Chen Feng nodded, looked at the old man, and made a listening gesture.
"Hmm..." The old man with rosacea cleared his throat and said slowly, "Spirit God is a strange power between heaven and earth. Those who possess it are all gifted by nature. Such people are top-notch geniuses whether they practice martial arts or spiritual cultivation. And my Xuanling Holy Sect is the supreme sect for the cultivation of Spirit God."
"Back then, our Xuanling Holy Sect was full of talented people and powerful people. It was one of the most powerful forces in the entire fairy world. The ten great ancestors of the Holy Sect were all powerful immortals. At that time, anyone who dared to disobey the orders of the Xuanling Holy Sect would be digging his own grave."
Chen Feng listened quietly, as if he had traveled through time and space with the words of the old man with rosacea, and arrived at the peak of Xuanling Holy Sect. The ten great immortal masters pointed out the country and issued orders to the world, and no one disobeyed. The scenes of thousands of sects making pilgrimages for Xuanling Holy Sect and for girls made Chen Feng's blood boil.
However, the old man with the rosacea changed the subject, exuding a sense of boundless loneliness: "However, everything that goes up must decline. One day, a mysterious strong man appeared outside the mountain gate of Xuanling Holy Sect. The reason was simply because a disciple of Xuanling Holy Sect accidentally obtained a piece of Heaven-Repairing Stone."
"That strong man specifically asked for the Heaven-Repairing Stone, but was rejected by the then sect master. Unexpectedly, in a rage, that man slaughtered all the members of the Xuanling Holy Sect!"
"Who is so powerful? You know, there are ten great immortal masters in the Xuanling Holy Sect!" Chen Feng opened his eyes wide, full of disbelief.
"It's ridiculous. The powerful immortals that Xuanling Holy Sect has always been proud of were not able to survive a single move by that man and were slaughtered completely." The old man with rosacea closed his eyes, as if he was recalling the scene at that time, and there was still a sense of panic and fear in his tone.
"In the end, the mysterious master searched the entire Xuanling Holy Sect but could not find any trace of the Heaven-Repairing Stone. In a rage, he sent down a fire from the sky, and the entire Xuanling Holy Sect, along with millions of disciples, disappeared in the fire." The old man with the rosacea was trembling, his tone becoming a little hysterical: "Only I am left, only I am left! If I hadn't happened to be sent out by the master to carry out the mission, I would have been doomed!"
Chen Feng looked at the old man with rosacea and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. This man seemed to be a miserable person.
"In the end, did that mysterious strong man find the Sky-Repairing Stone?" Chen Feng asked softly.
"No. The leader at that time possessed a spiritual god and foresaw the coming of the crisis. Therefore, he put the Heaven-Repairing Stone and some important inheritances of the Xuanling Holy Sect into the Xuanling Secret Realm in advance, which made it difficult for the mysterious strong man to find them."
"But that person seemed to have gotten some information, so he hunted down and killed all the disciples of Xuanling Holy Sect who were away, in order to find out the whereabouts of Xuanling Secret Realm. However, his plan failed. It happened to be the centennial anniversary of Xuanling Holy Sect at that time, and 99% of the disciples of Xuanling Holy Sect had returned to the sect and perished in his skyfire. The remaining disciples got wind of it and went into hiding, so he could not be found at all."
"To vent his anger, this man actually ordered a massive search for the owners of spirit gods and brutally killed them. Over the past tens of thousands of years, countless innocent spirit god owners have died under his orders! Over the years, spirit gods have almost become extinct in the entire fairy world."
The old man with rosacea said bitterly: "For the sake of revenge, I have been hiding my identity for these years, just to find someone with the spirit god and revive my Xuanling Holy Sect. And you are the only person with the spirit god that I have found."
Chen Feng listened carefully, his brows gradually furrowed.
Unexpectedly, possessing a spirit god was not a blessing, but a fatal threat. Perhaps one day in the future, the subordinates of that mysterious strong man would suddenly appear and kill him.
"Chen Feng, are you willing to join my Xuanling Holy Sect and revitalize my Xuanling Holy Sect?" The old man with rosacea stared at Chen Feng and said slowly.
Chen Feng's eyes were serious and he was lost in deep thought.
After a long while, he heaved a long sigh: "I want to know what will happen to me if I refuse to join Xuanling Holy Sect!"
The old man with rosacea thought for a moment, and then said calmly: "You will die in all likelihood!"
Chen Feng sneered and secretly guarded: "Did you do it?"
"Of course not!" The old man with rosacea said sincerely, "Even if you refuse, I won't do anything to you. You can go wherever you want in the future, and I will never ask."
"Hehe, if you don't kill me, aren't you afraid that I will leak your information?" Chen Feng said pointedly, "You are the remnant of the Xuanling Holy Sect. I'm afraid that the subordinates of that strong man will be happy to eliminate you."
"If you are not afraid of ruining yourself, then I am not afraid either!" The old man with rosacea chuckled and returned to his previous cynical look: "Those people will surely not let go of the owner of the spirit god."
Chen Feng was speechless, then laughed and said: "I am very curious, if I join your Xuanling Holy Sect, what kind of benefits will I get?"
The old man with rosacea held up three fingers: "Survive, become stronger, and have wealth!"
"What do you mean?" Chen Feng's eyebrows moved, and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.
"Let me start with the first one. I can't guarantee that the strong man's men won't kill you, but I have created a mental method that can prevent others from detecting that you are the owner of a spiritual god."
"Second, I can teach you the most suitable cultivation method for spiritual gods. It can rapidly increase your spiritual power and surpass all other cultivators."
"As for the third point, you can only do it after you become strong. Once you become strong, you can enter the Xuanling Secret Realm of my Xuanling Holy Sect and obtain everything inside. At that time, you will be the new leader of the Xuanling Holy Sect!" The old man with rosacea stared at Chen Feng and spoke word by word.
Chen Feng was stunned, and suddenly a surge of enthusiasm surged in his heart.
This condition is too tempting to refuse!
