The Seventh Elder looked admiringly and said, "It’s all thanks to the Alcohol Immortal and the Green Lotus Sword Manual."
Ling Chen was a bit confused.
After a while, he twitched his mouth slightly and said, "The ancestor got drunk and used the Green Lotus Sword Manual to defeat the Divine Body?"
The Seventh Elder gave a bitter smile.
What is this kid thinking!
The Seventh Elder asked, "How many styles are there in the Green Lotus Sword Manual?"
Ling Chen replied naturally.
Even some outsiders know that.
The Seventh Elder shook his head and said, "No, there’s also a tenth style."
Ling Chen was shocked by the words.
The ninth style of the Green Lotus Sword Manual is already comparable to high-grade Emperor Spirit Techniques.
Then, could the tenth style possibly be comparable to Divine Arts?
"Yes. This tenth style is not generally inherited; one needs to get to a specific place to possibly receive the ancestor’s direct transmission!"
Commented the Seventh Elder. ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ noveⅼfire.net
"The ancestor is still alive?"
Ling Chen asked in surprise.
The Seventh Elder replied, "I’m not sure either. That place should contain a Divine Soul left by the ancestor. This tenth style is reportedly referred to as minor Divine Arts!"
Divine Arts should only be performable by a Divine being.
This means that the tenth style must be similar to the Spirit Art obtained by Shen Xing from the Divine Artifact.
"So, do I have a chance to obtain this tenth style as well?"
If he could master the minor Divine Arts, he should be able to deal with Bai Yujing.
After all, Bai Yujing only possesses the Divine Body Secret Technique and hasn’t obtained the other half of the Sun and Moon Divine Blade, so he wouldn’t possess the minor Divine Arts.
The Seventh Elder shook his head.
Ling Chen was left bewildered.
If I don’t have a chance, why are you making such a fuss?
Are you playing with me?
The Seventh Elder continued, "Minor Divine Arts, among us in the Green Lotus Ancient Clan, can only be obtained by two people: one is the Clan Leader, and the other is the Young Clan Leader. With your strength, it’s impossible to compete for the Young Clan Leader position."
Ling Chen stared at the Seventh Elder, wishing he could go up and beat up this guy, if only he could manage it.
"You can’t get the tenth style, but you have a chance to obtain an Alcohol Transformation Technique."
Said the Seventh Elder.
"Alcohol Transformation Technique?"
Ling Chen was confused again.
The Seventh Elder explained, "The Alcohol Transformation Technique is basically a Magic Skill utilizing the Alcohol Immortal to enhance strength."
Ling Chen exclaimed in surprise.
Using alcohol to boost strength, the ancestor indeed had unique talents!
"Yes, otherwise, what did you think the ancestor’s three major hobbies were just for fun?"
The Seventh Elder said proudly.
Ling Chen chuckled and said, "Seventh Elder, then why don’t you pass the Alcohol Transformation Technique to me?"
The Seventh Elder shook his head.
Ling Chen found himself confused again.
Again playing with me?
Where is your conscience?
The Seventh Elder said, "Once the Young Master is confirmed, you members of the first line of blood have one chance to enter the Sword Tomb. The Young Master will go to receive the inheritance, to obtain the tenth style. Meanwhile, you others might get the Alcohol Transformation Technique."
"Therefore, whether you can obtain the Alcohol Transformation Technique also depends on your fate."
The Seventh Elder glanced at Ling Chen.
Ling Chen looked at the Seventh Elder with an odd expression.
After all that long talk, the last sentence was the main point.
Why did you talk about all those unrelated things?
Just mention the Alcohol Immortal directly, would you?
"How great is the chance to get the Alcohol Transformation Technique?"
After a while, Ling Chen asked.
Said the Seventh Elder, "Among our internal clan, only three out of nine Great Emperors have gained the Alcohol Transformation Technique. Moreover, this technique is also directly passed down by the ancestor."
Ling Chen nodded, "Then when is the Young Master determined?"
If it’s a long wait, he’d return to the Flower Immortal Sect.
There’s not much else to do here.
"Wait for three months!"
Said the Seventh Elder.
"Then I will wait here."
The Seventh Elder nodded and said, "These are clan secrets; do not spread them."
Seeing the Seventh Elder was about to leave, Ling Chen asked, "Who is the Young Master, is it confirmed?"
The Seventh Elder paused and said, "It’s basically confirmed to be Li Xuankong. When the Young Master position is finalized, you’ll also have to go through a formal appearance."
Ling Chen didn’t have much affection for this person.
When he first arrived here, this person sent people to intimidate him.
Fortunately, his strength far exceeded his cultivation, so he wasn’t humiliated.
Seeing Ling Chen unconcerned, the Seventh Elder said, "Li Xuankong is a six-star Emperor! Among you four first line of blood, only he has the highest level of cultivation. You’re a three-star Emperor; Kai Yan is an Emperor; Li Qing Kong is a four-star Emperor, neither is a match for Li Xuankong."
Ling Chen’s eyes turned, saying, "So, at that time, will we all be fighting against Li Xuankong?"
Said the Seventh Elder, "If you had fused with the Sun and Moon Divine Body, you might be able to challenge Xuankong, but unfortunately, you failed."
"Then if I defeat Li Xuankong, can I also become the Young Master?"
Ling Chen asked excitedly.
The Seventh Elder nodded, "As Young Master, you must be the strongest among the younger generation."
"Are there any other conditions for becoming Young Master?"
The Seventh Elder looked at Ling Chen with curiosity and said, "You’re not seriously planning to compete for Young Master, are you? Your strength as a three-star Emperor just isn’t enough to consider!"
Ling Chen nodded, "I also want to obtain the tenth style!"
The Seventh Elder chuckled and left the residence.
Watching the Seventh Elder’s departing figure, Ling Chen chuckled to himself.
Originally, he was not interested in the title of Young Master.
However, if he could seize the Young Master title, he could give Li Xuankong a good beating.
Most importantly, he could obtain the tenth style!
With the minor Divine Arts, he could also aim to defeat Divine Body holders and recreate the ancestor’s legendary moment!
Besides, he could surprise his mother.
"It’s been four years, has mother not come out of seclusion yet?"
Ling Chen muttered to himself.
Suddenly, he thought of something.
The Clan Leader seemed to be in seclusion too; could my mother and the Clan Leader be the same person?
The thought excited Ling Chen.
He immediately ran to Li Kaiyan’s place.
"Kai Yan, what’s the name of our Clan Leader?"
Li Kaiyan quickly covered Ling Chen’s mouth and said, "It’s disrespectful to directly call the Clan Leader’s name."
Ling Chen helped her advance to Emperor.
She was very grateful to Ling Chen.
Ling Chen removed Li Kaiyan’s little hand and said, "Then tell me quietly."
Li Kaiyan leaned close to Ling Chen’s ear and said, "White-haired brother, I’ll tell you, but don’t speak it out loud, or the Elder Council will convict you for disrespect!"
Ling Chen nodded quickly.
"Our Clan Leader is named Li Qingchan!"
After saying it, she glanced around, her big eyes darting fearfully, as if worried about someone eavesdropping.
Upon hearing, Ling Chen’s mind was deeply shocked, standing frozen.
This result was unexpected for him.
His mother was actually the Clan Leader of the Green Lotus Ancient Clan?
"White-haired brother, what’s wrong?"
Li Kaiyan asked strangely.
Ling Chen regained his composure and smiled.
