When Qin Hao arrived at Hengyue Sect, he discovered that a gigantic statue had appeared on Hengyue Peak at some unknown time.
The statue looked exactly like him.
At this moment, many cultivators from the Zhao Kingdom and other countries have come here to worship him.
Qin Hao looked at the statue, but did not sense any incense power emanating from it.
"really!"
Qin Hao thought to himself, "Only places like the Immortal Spirit Realm, where the materials are the same as those of the Four Immortal Realms, can produce incense offerings."
To be precise, it's not that other places cannot generate the power of incense offerings.
Rather, it is the power of these incense offerings that has been absorbed.
The four star regions within the realm are completely enveloped by a sealing array.
The main purpose of the sealing formation is to prevent too many third-step beings from appearing within the realm.
Similarly, the lack of incense offerings will greatly weaken the power of the third-step great beings in the realm, slowing down their cultivation.
Especially those injured third-step powerhouses need to be in seclusion for many years to slowly recuperate, and cannot use a large amount of incense power to heal their injuries quickly.
It can be said that as long as the power of incense is generated, it will be directly absorbed by the sealing formation if it is not immediately absorbed by the third-step great power.
"My disciple, you're back!"
The void twisted and contorted, and Huanglong Zhenren stepped out.
Currently, the cultivation level of his clone is only at the Nascent Soul stage.
But Qin Hao knew that if Huang Long wanted to, he could unleash Nirvana-level power instantly.
Qin Hao slowly descended and bowed to Huanglong Zhenren: "Greetings, Master!"
Because he concealed himself, the other cultivators were completely unaware of his presence.
Even the current Nascent Soul Ancestor of the Hengyue Sect.
Only Huanglong Zhenren, being an avatar of the Vermilion Bird Old Saint Emperor, was able to sense Qin Hao.
"Hehe, please rise quickly!"
Master Huanglong smiled and stroked his beard, carefully examining Qin Hao's brow.
When he saw the fiery red Vermilion Bird soaring in the space behind the mark between Qin Hao's eyebrows, his face immediately showed deep admiration, and he nodded, saying, "Good, good! I can say that I have a worthy successor!"
After a long pause, Master Huanglong finally said, "Qin Hao, come with me!"
He led Qin Hao to the cave where he had secluded himself for cultivation.
Upon entering the cave, Master Huanglong pointed to a futon and said, "Sit down!"
"yes!"
Qin Hao sat down cross-legged on the futon.
Huang Long looked at Qin Hao and said, "Presumably, you already know my identity, right?"
Although he never revealed his true identity to Qin Hao, he never hid it from him either.
Whether it was his instruction of Qin Hao in the "Nine Mysterious Transformations of the Vermilion Bird" or his mention of the Four Sacred Sects, it was enough to point to his true identity.
"If I'm not mistaken, Master should be the legendary Vermilion Bird Old Saint Emperor of the Four Saints Sect's Vermilion Bird lineage, right?"
Qin Hao answered with a smile.
He already knew the other party's identity.
"good!"
Master Huanglong straightened his expression and nodded, saying, "I am Lu Yun, the Holy Emperor of the Vermilion Bird lineage of the Four Saints Sect!"
"I was born in the ancient era of Qi Refiners, and from a young age served as a medicine boy for four generations of Holy Emperors. I am grateful to the old Holy Emperor for not abandoning me and for passing on to me the art of Qi Refining!"
"I am dull-witted. It took me 1,372 years of Qi cultivation to achieve some success. At that time, the Four Saints Sect was at its most glorious, boasting four powerful cultivators at the third step. Even the Immortal Emperor Qing Lin of the Rain Immortal Realm had to treat my Four Saints Sect with utmost respect!"
"At the age of two thousand nine hundred and forty-five, I have finally become an elder of the Vermilion Bird Holy Sect..."
"At the age of four thousand seven hundred and sixty, I became the Grand Elder of the Vermilion Bird Holy Sect and have passed through the first stage of decline for a Celestial Being!"
"At 6,215 years old, he obtained the Vermilion Bird Mark and awakened directly, defeating the other awakened ones and becoming part of the First Sequence!"
"Then, at the age of seven thousand nine hundred and twelve, with the help of the old Holy Emperor, he finally awakened the Vermilion Bird for the second time and became the young master of the Vermilion Bird lineage!"
"At the age of 11,463, the Rune Race came from beyond the stars, disrupting this world. I followed the Old Holy Emperor and helped the Four Immortal Realms fight and suppress the Rune Race!"
"Later, the fourth Holy Emperor appointed me as the fifth Vermilion Bird Holy Emperor. Together with the Holy Emperors of the other three lineages, we left the realm and disappeared from the world. At that time, I had only just passed the second tribulation of the Heavenly Man."
"Later, a strange phenomenon suddenly appeared in the Immortal Realm, engulfing all living beings in a state of chaos, including me... I thought it was just a momentary confusion, but three months actually passed in the outside world!"
"When I regained consciousness, I discovered that the Immortal Realm had collapsed. The new Azure Dragon Holy Emperor, disregarding my advice, entered the Immortal Realm to investigate and has since disappeared..."
"Several hundred years later, the Cultivation Alliance appeared in the Kunxu Starfield. For some unknown reason, they obtained most of the inheritance of the Rain Immortal Realm, and also had the help of the Kunxu Realm behind them!"
"They engaged in an earth-shattering battle with my Four Saints Sect. The Black Tortoise Saint Emperor betrayed us, and the White Tiger Saint Emperor perished in battle. From then on, my Four Saints Sect began its decline..."
"Back then, I was already at the third stage of the Celestial Decline, and I am still at the third stage now, unable to suppress the power of decay. I'm afraid I'll never be able to overcome the third stage in this lifetime!"
"Back then, I was already at the third stage of the Celestial Decline, and I am still at the third stage now, unable to suppress the power of decay. I'm afraid I'll never be able to overcome the third stage in this lifetime!"
The Vermilion Bird Emperor rambled on, recounting his own history and the history of the Four Saints Sect.
He looked at Qin Hao and asked, "Qin Hao, are you truly willing to join my Four Saints Sect and become my personal disciple?"
The Vermilion Bird Emperor did not tell Qin Hao the whole truth.
He now faces one final test.
He wanted to see if the other party would have any doubts because they were wary of the existence of the Cultivation Alliance.
The Four Saints Sect cannot afford to have another person like that.
If another Holy Emperor were to betray the Four Holy Sects, then the Four Holy Sects would truly be finished.
"Master, please accept my bow!"
Qin Hao straightened his expression, stood up, and respectfully kowtowed three times.
He said to the Vermilion Bird Saint Emperor, "Please rest assured, Master, your disciple will surely carry forward the Four Saints Sect in the future, making it the hegemon of the Alliance Starfield once again, and even renaming the Alliance Starfield the Four Saints Starfield!"
"Ha ha ha ha!"
The Vermilion Bird Emperor laughed a few times and said to Qin Hao, "Very well, from today onwards, you are my only personal disciple, Lu Yun's!"
The Vermilion Bird Saint Emperor continued, "However, your becoming my personal disciple does not mean that you can truly become the Vermilion Bird Saint Emperor."
As he spoke, the Vermilion Bird Emperor kept his gaze fixed on the other party, wanting to see if the other party would still hesitate.
Qin Hao confidently declared, "No matter the conditions, I believe I can become the new Holy Emperor through my own strength!"
"Um!"
The Vermilion Bird Saint Emperor nodded slightly and said, "Speaking of which, you are the most talented among the younger generation I have ever seen. You have cultivated for such a short time that you have already reached the Nirvana Realm and even awakened the Vermilion Bird once!"
"Within my Four Saints Sect, even those cultivators at the Pure Nirvana or Shattered Nirvana stages are not necessarily able to awaken the Vermilion Bird!"
