Chapter 130: The Foundation of the Profound Heaven Sect

Ye Lin listened to what Qingling said, "Oh, Brother Ling, are you finally going to tell me about your origins? I've been curious about this for a long time."

Qingling shook his head, "What are you thinking? To be honest, you don't have the qualifications to know my origins yet. Don't think that just because you've mastered the Sword Domain and reached the Soul Transformation Stage, you're all that great."

"In the Southern Region, you are indeed very powerful, and to be honest, you wouldn't be bad in the Spirit Region either, but this world is not as simple as you imagine."

"The outside world is far, far larger than you imagine; this Southern Region is merely a small starting point."

"If I were to tell you about my origins, it wouldn't be a good thing for you. With your current strength, you cannot yet bear the Karma of this matter."

"When you grow to a certain level, I will tell you."

Ye Lin nodded, "Then, Brother Ling, what are you going to tell me? Could it be the Realm after the Sword Domain?"

"That's right, that's it. I will first tell you about the Realm after the Sword Domain. This Realm has no records in your Southern Region, and no one in the Southern Region has ever reached it. Even in the Spirit Region, very few people have reached this Realm."

This made Ye Lin somewhat curious. Once upon a time, he had also thought that the Sword Domain was the highest Realm of the Dao of the Sword; it turned out he had been looking at the sky from the bottom of a well.

The Sword Domain is merely the true threshold of the path of the Dao of the Sword, and he could now be considered to have truly stepped across that threshold.

"Brother Ling, what exactly is the Realm after that?"

"The next step after the Sword Domain is the Sword Domain: World Manifestation. This Realm is different from the Sword Domain you currently possess, which manifests phenomena outside."

"This Sword World is, in the true sense, constructed using the practitioner's own Sword Intent to create a Sword World that belongs solely to them. The amplification within the Sword World is incomparable to the Sword Domain."

"You will know the specifics when you reach that step, but I believe this is not a difficult task for you. After all, you have a talent bonus, and with my existence, it is only a matter of time."

"However, the Realm after the Sword Domain: World Manifestation is too difficult. You will know when the time comes; you cannot touch that kind of power right now."

Qingling knew that Ye Lin's talent actually did not reach the top-tier level and would not even rank among those true Prodigies.

But he knew that Ye Lin possessed the blessing of Luck, which others did not have; this was the trump card that would truly allow him to reach the end.

However, he would not speak to Ye Lin about things like Luck; it was better for him not to know about such things for now.

Qingling gazed at the sky and sighed, wondering how far he could go this time.

Ye Lin was also very shocked after hearing this; he was determined to step into this Realm and witness the scenery at the Peak of the Dao of the Sword.

"Alright, I didn't just tell you this for no reason; I want you to raise my grade once again."

"Originally, I would only reach the level of Spirit Rank once you reached the Void Refinement Stage, but the current situation is not very good, and there is a place that happens to have something that can accelerate my improvement speed."

"Since you happen to be going to the Limitless Dynasty, the thing I want is there."

He knew about the Spirit Rank quality; after Qingling reached the Heaven Rank Peak, he had told him that the next level was the Spirit Rank.

It must be known that if Qingling were to reach the Spirit Rank, the improvement for him would be immense.

In any case, he had to go to the Limitless Dynasty, so he could just take care of this matter along the way; he was still confident in his own strength now.

"Alright, Brother Ling, once I finish my tasks, I will go to the place you mentioned and get you upgraded to the Spirit Rank first."

"Brother Ling, with your help, I believe I will definitely be able to step onto the highest Peak of the Dao of the Sword and comprehend its ultimate scenery."

Qingling nodded.

The highest Peak of the Dao of the Sword was truly too difficult; Qingling did not have the heart to crush Ye Lin's current confidence.

"Alright, it's about time to leave; don't waste any more time."

Ye Lin nodded, "Alright, I will set off now."

Just as Ye Lin was preparing to leave, Qi Liang arrived at his mountain Peak.

Ye Lin stopped; over the years, the Sect Master had helped him quite a lot, and basically, whatever he wanted in the Sect, he was given.

Previously, he had also come to ask him if he wanted to become a Peak Master or something similar.

But he had refused; he wasn't interested in titles or positions, and besides, he often had to go out.

Qi Liang let him be; he was now just considered a Disciple of the Profound Heaven Sect, but he possessed all the rights of a Peak Master, and even rights that Peak Masters did not have.

This was not just the case for him; most Prodigies were like this. Although their status was that of a Disciple of the Profound Heaven Sect, they still received the treatment they were due; after all, not everyone wanted to be an Elder or something similar.

Qi Liang had also asked him if he had considered taking on Disciples, but given his current situation, he had no time to teach Disciples; he was constantly rushing about and learning.

Ye Lin looked at Qi Liang, who was walking over, "Sect Master is here, please sit."

Qi Liang sat down, "Ye Lin, congratulations. To have stepped into the Sword Domain at this critical time, the burden on my shoulders has suddenly lightened quite a bit."

Ye Lin also knew that Qi Liang had been planning matters regarding the Demon Race and the countermeasures for when the time came.

"Rest assured, Sect Master, if the Demon Race wants to attack our Profound Heaven Sect, they must first get past me."

Qi Liang nodded, "I know your strength is extraordinary now; even as I am now, I am no match for you in those two Sword Domains."

"I came this time to tell you some things; with your current strength, it is time for you to know."

This statement surprised Ye Lin; did the Profound Heaven Sect have some other secret?

Qi Liang looked at Ye Lin's confused expression and stopped playing coy.

"Ye Lin, who has the highest cultivation in our Profound Heaven Sect?"

"Isn't it you, Sect Master? At the Peak of the Soul Transformation Stage."

Qi Liang shook his head, "It is not me. Actually, our Profound Heaven Sect has someone with a higher cultivation than me, but none of you know about it; only the various Peak Masters and I know."

"Our Sect still has an Old Ancestor."

This did indeed shock Ye Lin; he had always thought that the Sect Master had the highest cultivation in the Profound Heaven Sect.

He hadn't expected that an Old Ancestor existed. After all, in the Southern Region, he had never heard of anyone at the Void Refinement Stage for so many years, nor had he ever seen anyone at the Void Refinement Stage.

This did indeed surprise him—that their Profound Heaven Sect still had an Old Ancestor at the Void Refinement Stage.

"Sect Master, this really surprises me; I didn't expect our Profound Heaven Sect to still have someone at the Void Refinement Stage."

"Then, do the other Eight Great Sects also have Old Ancestors at the Void Refinement Stage?"

Qi Liang nodded, then shook his head, "Other Sects have them too, but not all Sects have them."

Ye Lin thought about it and realized it made sense; it wouldn't make sense for the Eight Great Sects not to have some trump cards up their sleeves.

He had thought that everyone who reached the Void Refinement Stage would head to the Spirit Region, as there was no further development to be had by staying in the Southern Region.
