Chapter 1: The Oddball Elder

Immortal Dao Continent, Southern Cloud State.

Spirit Immortal Sect, the site of the disciple initiation ceremony.

Early in the morning, several hundred young boys and girls had gathered here.

"Ninth Elder, arrive!"

With an announcement, a handsome young man dressed in white stepped into the arena.

"This is the Ninth Elder? So young!"

"Fortunately handsome, I want to worship him!"

"Worship the Hammer! Don't choose him as your teacher! The Ninth Elder of the Spirit Immortal Sect is a well-known oddball!"

"Oddball? What do you mean by that?"

"He can cultivate himself to the point of going mad and regressing in his cultivation, do you think that's weird?"

"I'll go, then we really can't worship this person!"

...

Listening to the murmurings of the young boys and girls around him, Zhang Yun looked helpless.

Surprisingly, even these new disciples who had not yet joined the sect were aware of his reputation ...

What a sinful predecessor!

He was originally an earthling, and after waking up from a coma after a sudden illness five days ago, he found that he had travelled to this ninth elder of the Spirit Immortal Sect who had the same name as him.

He was quite satisfied.

Elder, what a high starting point!But after the memories were merged, the atmosphere was not suddenly wonderful.

That was because the predecessor, that sinful thing, had actually cultivated to the point of going off the deep end and cracking his Jindan half a month ago.

Cultivating from the Jindan level back to the Foundation level overnight.

Just like that, at least there is an elder position to mix.

But I don't know what to kill the knife, learned the news in the Spirit Immortal Sect spread, make the sect known to everyone.

This is not, yesterday, the Spirit Immortal Sect high-level meeting.

A number of elders jointly asked the patriarch to remove the nine elders.

In the Spirit Immortal Sect, the foundation stage is not worthy of being an elder.

The Patriarch of the Spirit Immortal Sect didn't agree or refuse, but he did make a suggestion.

Three months later, the Spirit Immortal Sect's annual disciple competition was held. At that time, all the disciples under the sect's elders would participate, and based on the disciples' results, each elder would receive an annual ranking.

If Zhang Yun placed in the top three, the position of elder would be retained. On the contrary, he would be deposed!

No one objected when this was said.

After all, Zhang Yun had no disciples under his command.

Not to mention the top three, it was hard to say whether he would have any disciples to participate in the disciple competition three months later.

Zhang Yun was well aware of this.Gotta, start high and turn right into a nightmare start.

I have no choice but to face reality.

Today happens to be the Spirit Immortal Sect's triennial disciple acceptance ceremony, and he came with the mindset of beating a dead horse, wanting to see if he could accept two disciples.

"But this situation, it's not too good!"

Seeing the many young boys and girls within the hall looking at him with sceptical eyes, Zhang Yun smiled bitterly and shook his head as he walked up to the high platform built especially for the elders within the hall.

"Yo, rare guest!"

As he walked up, a mocking laugh came out of his ears, "Isn't this our famous and strange Ninth Elder? I don't see you accepting disciples on weekdays, why, are you even free to accept disciples today?"

The one who opened his mouth was a green-robed man with a pair of triangular eyes and a face that looked very small at first glance.

This was also Zhang Yun's impression of this man.

Meng Zhong, the tenth elder of the Spirit Immortal Sect.This person was jealous and had a very bad relationship with his predecessor. Both of them had entered the Spirit Immortal Sect in the same batch, both of them were in the category of cultivation geniuses, and both of them had reached Jindan before the age of thirty.

However, his predecessor was three months ahead of this Meng Zhong.

Not only that, but he was also superior to the other party in every other aspect.

For example, when it came to cultivating the same type of martial arts, his predecessor had only spent one and a half years cultivating it, while this person had spent two years. In hunting the same kind of spirit beast, his predecessor spent half a month, this person spent a month ...

Since he was already jealous and oppressed at every turn, one could imagine the mental state of this Meng Zhong.

After learning that Zhang Yun's Jindan was broken and his cultivation retreated back to the base ...

Meng Zhong was the first to jump out.

Yesterday, he was the one who proposed to remove him as an elder!

"Is it any of your business whether I come to accept disciples or not?"

Zhang Yun bristled.

"You ..."

When Meng Zhong gave the top line, he was a bit annoyed and grunted coldly, "Vulgar!"

Zhang Yun rolled his eyes and lazily ignored the other party, finding his position as the Ninth Elder and sitting down.

"Hmph, you're just enjoying your time as an elder for the last time. After three months, you won't be qualified to sit here!"

Meng Centre snorted coldly.

He had arrived here early this morning in anticipation of Zhang Yun's arrival.

He had specially arranged for a new disciple who would soon be worshipping under him to properly spread Zhang Yun's 'glorious deeds' among the newly promoted disciples.

He believed that as long as a group of new disciples were not stupid, they would not worship under Zhang Yun!

After Zhang Yun arrived, the other elders of the Spirit Immortal Sect arrived one by one.

"Nyan-!!!"

Shortly after, a crane cry came from the distant sky.

All that could be seen was a white crane over two metres in length hurtling towards the venue, and on the back of the crane, a middle-aged man in purple Daoist robes stood with his arms crossed.

"It's the Sovereign! The Patriarch of the Immortal Spirit Sect has come!!!"

"Is that the legendary YuanYing stage cultivator? Certainly, his aura is extraordinary!"

...

A commotion erupted in the hall.

In the Immortal Dao Continent, the cultivator's realm started from Qi Refining to Foundation Building, Jindan, YuanYing, God Transformation, Void Refining, Harmonisation, and Mahayana ...To be able to cultivate to the Yuanying level was already a big deal.

You could count on both hands the number of beings in the entire Southern Cloud State who had reached that level! The boys and girls in the field were full of admiration.

The young boys and girls in the field were full of admiration.

Zhang Yun couldn't help but exhale as he watched, a hint of envy flashing through his eyes.

On the Immortal Dao Continent, strength was revered.

When he was at the Yuanying stage, where would he have to worry about being deposed as an elder?

Becoming stronger!

A longing could not help but arise in his heart.

Suddenly, his entire head shook, as if it had triggered some sort of resonance, only to feel that the remnants of his predecessor in his brain were being completely integrated into this yearning of his at this very moment.

It was only at this moment that he felt completely in control of this body! At this moment, Immortal Master Great World was completely integrated into this desire of his.

"Immortal Master Great World, open up!"

At the same time, an ethereal voice suddenly resounded in his ears.

Zhang Yun only felt a flash of light in front of him, and as he looked around, he realised that he was actually in a white earth and sky.

There was a ball of light floating in the surrounding void.

"What situation?

Zhang Yun was confused.

But he quickly realised, "Wait, this can't be a ... Traveller Benefit, can it?"Both eyes lit up.

"System?"

"Grandpa?"

"Is anyone there?"

He shouted several times in a row.

But there was no response, only the virtual space, a mass of light, hovering in circles around him without interruption.

"Is it possible to touch these balls of light?"

Zhang Yun frowned and tried to reach out and grab one of the balls of light.

Buzz!

The moment he grabbed the ball of light, the entire ball of light suddenly dissipated and turned into a special energy that rushed directly into his brain.

"Gaining ability, Immortal Master Heavenly Eye!"

Zhang Yun's mind shook, only to see a paragraph of light signs flashing in front of his eyes as the ethereal voice came back into his ears, "The next time it opens, it will be after a disciple is accepted!"

Then ...

He only felt a flash of light in front of his eyes, and when he looked back, he had already returned to the place of the Apostle Acceptance Ceremony of the Spirit Immortal Sect.
