72: Chapter 72 Jijing City 72: Chapter 72 Jijing City “Uncle Lin, this time I will leave Lin Mansion and head to Jijing City for a long time.

From now on, the responsibility of looking after Lin Mansion will fall on you.”

Inside the palace, Chu Fengmian was sitting opposite the Third Elder.

Now that Lin Mansion was unified, there was no need for Chu Fengmian to stay there anymore.

“It’s unbelievable that such earth-shattering changes have taken place in just three months.”

The Third Elder also sighed.

Three months ago, who could have imagined that Chu Fengmian, once considered a waste of Lin Mansion, could unify it?

Now that Lin Mansion was unified, the Third Elder himself found it hard to believe.

“Alright, I’m getting old.

I will stay in Lin Mansion and look after it.”

The Third Elder said with a mild smile.

Now that Lin Mansion had the protection of two Spirit Sea Realm martial artists, few forces in these thirteen southwestern cities dared to provoke it.

Although the Third Elder was not very strong, he was fully capable of controlling the two Spirit Sea Realm martial artists and managing Lin Mansion efficiently.

“With your abilities, it’s indeed time for you to venture out.

After all, these thirteen southwestern cities are a small place, lacking even an Emperor Riding martial artist.

I myself wandered when I was young, and the prosperity outside is truly meant for the young,” the Third Elder lamented.

Naturally, Chu Fengmian could no longer stay in Lin Mansion.

“Uncle Lin, here are two Cultivation Techniques I acquired from an ancient cave.

I’ll hand them over to you now.”

Chu Fengmian hesitated for a moment before taking out two jade slips and giving them to the Third Elder.

“One of these, named ‘Light Spirit Technique,’ is a Profound Level top-grade Cultivation Technique; it’s much better than what is practiced in Lin Mansion.

Distribute it among the disciples for their cultivation.”

“The other, named ‘Cloud Sea Ice Emperor Technique,’ is an Earth Level top-grade Cultivation Technique.

It is extremely powerful and bestowing it onto others might invite trouble; you should cultivate it yourself.”

These two Cultivation Techniques were carefully chosen by Chu Fengmian from his memory as those that required relatively less innate talent.

Chu Fengmian had promised the Lin Mansion disciples, and he intended to keep his word.

He would lead them to the peak of these thirteen southwestern cities.

“With these two Cultivation Techniques, dominating the thirteen southwestern cities shouldn’t be difficult for Lin Mansion,” Chu Fengmian calmly stated.

The most advanced technique previously in Lin Mansion was only a mid-grade Profound Level, and it required extremely high talent to cultivate.

Now, with the disciples practicing this Light Spirit Technique, Lin Mansion’s power could expand manifold within three years.

“Profound Level top-grade!

Earth Level top-grade!”

The Third Elder, holding both Cultivation Techniques, muttered in disbelief.

Lin Mansion had dominated Linwu City for a thousand years with just a mid-grade Profound Level technique.

Such top-grade Profound Level techniques were something even the top forces in the Martial Victory Kingdom might not possess.

And an Earth Level top-grade technique was something of legends, rarely seen even across the entire Martial Victory Kingdom.

After a long while, the Third Elder regained his composure and spoke confidently.

“Rest assured, with these two Cultivation Techniques, dominating the thirteen southwestern cities will not be difficult.

You can leave with peace of mind,” he said with a smile.

With these two techniques, if Lin Mansion couldn’t dominate the thirteen southwestern cities, it wouldn’t deserve to be called a martial arts family.

“Then tomorrow I shall set out for Jijing City,” Chu Fengmian stated calmly.

The next day, early in the morning, Chu Fengmian left Lin Mansion without a word.

He rode the Black Scale Horse King, rushing towards Jijing City.

On his journey, Chu Fengmian wasn’t lonely; he admired the scenery and crossed various cities.

The thirteen southwestern cities were actually on the remote fringes of the Martial Victory Kingdom.

Finally, after seven days, a huge city appeared before Chu Fengmian.

Jijing City, the capital of the Martial Victory Kingdom.

Jijing City was a hundred times the size of Linwu City, with the city gates alone standing a hundred meters tall, and countless martial artists moving through them.

This Jijing City alone had a population of ten million.

It was the capital of a region, and although it couldn’t compare to the ancient cities famous throughout the Nine Domains, it was far more prosperous than such remote places as Linwu City.

Talking to himself, Chu Fengmian rode the Black Scale Horse King toward the city.

On the road, he could see many young martial artists, all with high talents; many had opened five or six Spirit Veins.

In Linwu City, they would be considered peerless geniuses, and though they were not common in Jijing City, Chu Fengmian still encountered a few.

From conversations among these martial artists, Chu Fengmian learned why Jijing City was so bustling these days.

These days were when the five major powers of the Martial Victory Kingdom were recruiting disciples.

“I wonder if we will be able to join one of the top five sects this time,” a group of young martial artists passing by Chu Fengmian discussed.

“I heard that the disciples of the Candle Flame Sect are all terrifying flame controllers, capable of burning refined steel.

It would be great if I could join the Candle Flame Sect,” one young martial artist said, full of hope.

He appeared to be about the same age as Chu Fengmian and had already reached the peak of the Bone Tempering Realm.

At such an age, he was considered somewhat accomplished and talented.

“Not just the Candle Flame Sect, but disciples of the Wind God Sect, Cold Snow Pavilion, and Three Immortal Islands are each more terrifying than the last.

If we could just enter one of the top five sects, we’d be considered significant figures in the Martial Victory Kingdom,” another martial artist spoke.

“Really, if I could choose, the best would be to join the Martial Victory Institute.

After all, it is the number one power in the Martial Victory Kingdom, the leader of the top five sects.”

“Hmph, the Martial Victory Institute isn’t that easy to join.

Most martial artists who get in only serve as servants.

It’s already difficult just to get into the outer sect, not to mention the inner sect where you truly become a disciple of the Martial Victory Institute,” another martial artist added.

“Perhaps it’s better to see how the other four major sects are recruiting this time.”

Such conversations were common everywhere.

Every year at this time, countless young martial artists from the Martial Victory Kingdom would come to Jijing City, hoping to join a sect.

Those who actually made it into one of the top five sects were few; but for those who did, it was akin to a carp leaping through the dragon gate, soaring to the heavens.

Thus, every year, countless young martial artists came to try their luck.

“Tomorrow is the day the Martial Victory Institute takes disciples.”

Chu Fengmian read the notices posted all around the city and thought to himself.

He intended to join the Martial Victory Institute; as for the other four major sects, he had no interest in them.
