Chapter 2896 Gifts from Deputy Pavilion Master Lin

As expected, Xuan Feiling announced directly, "During this campaign to cleanse the sect of its malignant tumors, Elder Lin Xun rendered remarkable contributions. After consultation between me and the other deputy pavilion masters, he has been selected to become a deputy pavilion master of Origin Sky Pavilion, taking over the position formerly held by Fu Wenli!"

The entire audience erupted in excitement. Many looked incredulous. After the end of the Immortal Dao Battle, Lin Xun had been promoted to an elder of the Origin Sky Pavilion upon returning to the sect, taking over the position previously held by Cao Beidou.

Now, less than a month later, his rank had been elevated again to a deputy pavilion master! This rapid promotion had shattered all records since the founding of the Origin Sect!

Xiang Xiaoyuan was now a core successor of the Origin Sect, and Feng Qixi and Liu Yunfeng, now deputy deacons, were all in awe. Lin Xun's current cultivation power and status far surpassed theirs, leaving them completely envious and unable to feel anything but admiration!

Not only them, but even elders like Qin Wuyu and Tao Leng were also stunned and sighed. They couldn’t help but reminisce about the past, when they first watched Lin Xun join the Origin Sect. Now, with the passage of time, he had assumed the authority of a deputy pavilion master. Compared to him, their status and positions were far inferior!

Suddenly, someone spoke up in a deep voice, "Deputy Pavilion Master Xuan, Elder Lin is only at the early Transcendence Stage. Among the elders in our three pavilions, there are many who have reached the perfect Transcendence Stage. Why not select a deputy pavilion master from among them?"

All eyes turned to that person. It was Tong Chaoyun, the head of the nine elders of the Origin Emptiness Pavilion, and he was a perfect Transcendence Stage expert. Therefore, he was a true veteran old monster. Speaking of which, if the number of deputy pavilion masters hadn’t been limited, his abilities would have qualified him for that position long ago.

Xuan Feiling smiled, "Old Tong, I knew you were outspoken and wouldn't just accept this. How about this? You and Lin Xun can have a sparring match here?"

Tong Chaoyun said angrily, "I’m not someone who bullies the weak. You can rest assured. I have no objection to Lin Xun's talents and I admire him immensely. However, it’s just that his advancement is so rapid that I'm afraid that he might be biting off more than he can chew, and it might be counterproductive to his future."

Fang Daoping, Dugu Yong, and the others all looked puzzled and were at a loss for words. Lin Xun's current combat prowess was such that he could threaten old men like them. How could this be considered biting off more than he could chew?

Xuan Feiling was also amused. After a moment's thought, he sent a telepathic message to Tong Chaoyun about Lin Xun's feat of killing Fu Wenli and the other three deputy pavilion masters solo.

Tong Chaoyun suddenly lost his composure, and a look of bewilderment appeared on his face. After repeated questioning and confirmation, he finally said, half-believing and half-doubting, "If that's the case, then I have no more objections."

Everyone present was confused, puzzled by Tong Chaoyun's sudden change of heart. Unfortunately for them, both Xuan Feiling and his companions, as well as Tong Chaoyun, chose to remain silent.

If such news were to get out, it would only put Lin Xun at the center of public attention. Once the Ten Immortal Giants learned of it, they would undoubtedly regard him as their number one enemy! On the other hand, concealing the knowledge of his combat power could be seen as a hidden trump card, catching any enemies off guard in the future.

From this point on, no one questioned or objected to Lin Xun’s new promotion.

"Congratulations, Deputy Pavilion Master Lin!"

"Congratulations, Deputy Pavilion Master Lin!"

A wave of congratulations echoed throughout the venue, resonating throughout the heavens and earth. Many successors looked on with enthusiastic admiration and respect. To them, Lin Xun was simply a legend beyond legends, a mythical figure they could never hope to reach!

Since he had entered the sect, in just a few decades, he had risen through the ranks from an ordinary disciple to his current position as deputy pavilion master. What else could this be but a legend?

The veterans present were also filled with emotion. Lin Xun's rapid rise had once weighed on them, leaving them feeling pressured and astonished. Now, they felt only admiration. Jealousy and envy were of no use. After all, a figure as legendary as this was truly beyond their reach as well.

With this, Lin Xun naturally became a deputy pavilion master of the Origin Sky Pavilion! He was only one step away from the position of pavilion master. Now, nearly eighty years remained until You Beihai was going to attempt to certify his Eternal Dao!

Next, Xuan Feiling announced the appointments of two more deputy pavilion masters.

Tong Chaoyun assumed the position of deputy pavilion master of the Origin Emptiness Pavilion, while Zhang Qianxi, another veteran with comparable experience, was appointed deputy pavilion master of Origin Clarity Pavilion. These two, respectively, assumed the responsibilities previously held by Chi Wen and Tang Qiu.

After announcing these appointments, Xuan Feiling said in a deep voice, "Due to the need for internal reorganization within the sect, from today onwards, no one may leave without our permission."

A sudden silence fell. Everyone present was no fool. From today's events, they had already grasped many hidden issues.

For example, if the experts of the Ten Immortal Giants, led by Fu Wenli and others, had been completely eliminated from the sect, once the news spread, it would undoubtedly cause a great shock throughout the world. How could the Ten Immortal Giants possibly let this go?

As the crowd was about to disperse, Lin Xun suddenly spoke up, "I have something to announce. Fellow disciples who have reached the Nirvana Spirit Stage, please stay."

Everyone was stunned. Even Xuan Feiling and the others couldn't help but glance at Lin Xun, unsure of what he was about to do.

After a brief pause, Xuan Feiling said, "Follow Deputy Pavilion Master Lin’s orders. Those in the Nirvana Spirit Stage will stay. The rest may disperse now."

Soon, only a little over a hundred people remained. Eighty percent of them were deacons and elders from the three pavilions, while the nine peak masters and elders comprised the other twenty percent. The weakest were in the early Nirvana Spirit Stage, while the strongest were at the perfect stage.

"I previously acquired a considerable amount of law power in the Ten Directions Demon Realm. I'd like to take this opportunity to bestow these treasures upon you all."

Lin Xun's declaration astonished the Nirvana Spirit Immortals present. They seemed surprised that Lin Xun, fresh from his new appointment to a deputy pavilion master, would offer them benefits. Was this an attempt to win over their hearts?

Someone said loudly, "Deputy Pavilion Master Lin, you've worked so hard to gather those law powers. Without the corresponding merit, I cannot possibly accept such a gift shamelessly."

"Indeed, if everyone here accepted such treasures, it would surely drain Deputy Pavilion Master Lin's entire fortune." Someone else said with a smile, causing laughter to ripple through the room.

Odd expressions appeared on Fang Daoping’s and Li Zhen’s faces. These fellows probably had no idea how deep Lin Xun's pockets were.

Then Lin Xun smiled faintly and waved his sleeves.

Clatter!

A mountain of law power surged forth, producing a dazzling array of colors. They emanated a distinct and mystical aura, drenching the entire world with a vibrant, multicolored sheen.

"This..."

The laughter ceased abruptly. The Nirvana Spirit Immortals stared with wide eyes, utterly dumbfounded. So many! There must have been thousands!

Xuan Feiling, Dugu Yong, and the others were also unaware of this, so they were also flabbergasted by this scene, their hearts churning. In the Eternal True Realm, finding a single law power would require immense effort, sometimes relying purely on luck.

Lin Xun, on the other hand, had thrown out thousands of law powers with a single wave! This was like unleashing a truly extraordinary opportunity before everyone's eyes. The visual impact was truly immense.

"These are law powers below the sixth grade Earth Rank, and there are over 3,300 in total. They are all damaged and cannot be used to comprehend an immortal law, but they hold immeasurable benefits for those in the early Nirvana Spirit Stage."

Lin Xun then said while looking at Li Zhen. "Elder Li Zhen, how about you be in charge of distributing these law powers?"

"Yes." Li Zhen accepted the task solemnly.

All of a sudden, the early Nirvana Spirit Immortals were thrilled, and they all bowed in unison, "Thank you, Deputy Pavilion Master Lin, for your grace!"

Their voices resounded through the air.

"Then...can we receive things too?"

Some intermediate and advanced stage Nirvana Spirit Immortals had become envious, disregarding their dignity and manners. They stared at Lin Xun expectantly, like hungry chicks.

𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

Fang Daoping couldn't help but jokingly ask, "Now, shouldn’t you all say that you shouldn't accept rewards without the corresponding merit?"

Everyone felt a wave of embarrassment and a flush of shame. There was nothing they could do. To them, a law power was a peerless treasure that could enhance their cultivation. Furthermore, such a vast amount had appeared that it was simply too hard for them to control themselves...

Lin Xun smiled and waved his sleeves.

Clatter!

Another mountain of law power appeared out of thin air, dazzling and radiant, giving off an alluring sheen that would dazzle any Nirvana Spirit Immortal. Everyone noticed that these law powers were actually treasures that were between the sixth and ninth grade Earth Rank! This made them even rarer and more precious than the previous set!

Seeing this, the Nirvana Spirit Immortal who had previously expressed concern about draining Lin Xun's family fortune was stunned and shouted, "I've changed my mind. I'm willing to be bribed by Deputy Pavilion Master Lin. No one can possibly stop me!"

Everyone burst into laughter. However, the look in their eyes also became warm. This scene made Xuan Feiling and the others envious. These guys were so lucky to have met a wealthy patron like Lin Xun. Thinking back to when they were in the Nirvana Spirit Stage, they must have expended countless efforts and time just to collect a single law power...

"There are over two thousand of these law powers in total. How about Deputy Pavilion Master Fang be in charge of distributing them?" Lin Xun looked at Fang Daoping.

"Wow, on your first day as a deputy pavilion master, and you're already bossing an old man like me around?" Fang Daoping glared, but he still agreed with a smile.

How could he not tell that Lin Xun intended to use these law powers to rapidly strengthen the sect's core members? His willingness to share these precious treasures moved even these old monsters deeply, leaving them filled with emotion. Undoubtedly, Lin Xun truly considered the sect his home!

"Thank you, Deputy Pavilion Master Lin!"

The intermediate and advanced Nirvana Spirit Stage experts all bowed in gratitude, each one filled with excitement and joy. Was this bribery? But who would be so foolish as to offer so many precious treasures to buy people's hearts? If it truly was bribery, then they would rather be among the bribed!

Just when everyone thought the distribution of benefits was about to conclude, Lin Xun waved his sleeves again. A dense mass of law power appeared once again in their field of vision. All of a sudden, everyone lost their composure!
