Chapter 202 A Corner of the Future

Chen Lang turned around and said, "Senior, although he disguised himself as the sect master, it was my instruction, but this also allowed you to see your past self. This is not only the rebirth of the old sect master, but also your rebirth, isn't it?"

The temple keeper was slightly stunned, then he clapped his hands and laughed, "That's true, but I just have a few words for you."

"You say."

The temple keeper paused for a moment and said, "You are a good candidate. Like me, you are also an orphan."

"Your performance is very good. You deserve the treatment you received from the Heavenly Ranking. If a cultivator who can fight against several families alone cannot get a place, then this Heavenly Ranking is completely meaningless."

The temple keeper paused, "But I see a glimpse of the future in you, and I want to remind you that maybe one day you will part ways with the Tianjian Sect, or even draw your sword against it. This day may not be too far away, and by that time you may already be at a very high level."

“If that day comes, since I helped you today, I will show some friendship to you and treat the sect that has done you a favor well.”

"Senior, I have remembered it. Are you done?" Chen Lang said.

"I'm done."

So Chen Lang left.

……

Chen Lang turned on the system.

[The mission has been completed. 】

[In the ancestral sacrifice, you are so powerful and your dazzling light cannot be blocked. You are powerful enough to fight against the geniuses from all sides, and you have won the heavenly beads. You have successfully left your name on the ancestral monument. You will have a place on the heavenly list, and you have been recognized by the elders of the sect. This is the only way for you to become a master, but it is just a tiny bit of glory on your long journey.]

[Main Mission: Resist Foreign Enemies]

[Task time limit: 30 days/Player time: 4 days]

[Main Mission: Resisting Foreign Enemies 2]

[Task time limit: one year/player time: 36 days]

[Main Mission: Fight for the Heavenly Ranking]

[Task time limit: three years/player time: 3 days]

[Your performance exceeds 99% of players, and the achievement package has been issued]

[You are promoted to the eighth level of foundation building]

[You get the Earth Escape Talisman*100]

[You get a skill book (advanced)*1]

[You get Nine Revolutions Pill*2]

[You get a marker*1]

After receiving the reward, Chen Lang felt that his body and true essence had transformed again, his Qi sea had expanded, and he officially entered the late stage of foundation building.

After carefully looking at the task rewards, he first took out the skill book and the [Ancient Immortal Secret Art - Phoenix] left by Yan Xue'e and tried to use it. He was very interested in this thing. He had tried it with an intermediate skill book before, but couldn't learn it.

[Skill book level is insufficient, cannot be learned]

[Warning: It is detected that your body does not meet the requirements for practicing the ancient immortal method. Please upgrade your body level first.]

"Still can't learn?" Chen Lang was surprised.

The level of the physical body is not important, as long as the conditions are not stuck, you can learn it, but there is really nothing you can do if the level of the skill book is not high enough.

Forget it, I'd better keep it to learn the secret techniques of the Tianjian Sect.

Chen Lang put the skill book back and took out the [Marker]

This is a black ball, a bit like a dematerializer. The item description says that it "can mark an object", but he hasn't figured out what it's used for yet.

Tag Su Qingchan?

The biggest reward this time is the Nine Revolutions Pill. This thing is very useful when paired with the Cursed Bell, but the price is a bit high.

At present, the plot in Tianjian Sect has ended, and this should be the end. The Hundred-Faced Demon Lord and the Lu family still have some troubles, and they might come to him, but this is not a big deal. He is not interested in grudges and hatreds, and generally doesn't bother to pay attention unless there is a reward. Then, reopen the task panel.

【The mission has been updated. 】

[You are outstanding in the Tianjian Sect, and have made great achievements in many tests and battles. You are deeply respected by fellow disciples and loved by the elders. For this reason, you will be included in the Tianbang and trained as a future elder. ]

[But outside the tranquility and peace of the Tianjian Sect, there are fierce waves, the forces of all parties are deep and complex, and the environment is dangerous. As a disciple of the Heavenly Ranking and the successor of the elders, you have an unshirkable responsibility to protect the safety of the sect. At this time when all the sects are besieging the Pingtian Sect, you will be sent by the Tianjian Sect to perform special tasks together with other disciples of the sect.]

[Task requirements: Complete the first joint battle of the sects and successfully deliver the mission]

"Are we going to do this?" Chen Lang pondered.

The Tianjian Sect had formed an alliance with other sects for a while and things were going very intensely. He had anticipated the encirclement and suppression, but he was not sure who his opponent would be.

According to the progress of the task, the other party should not exceed the Jindan level for the time being.

After returning to Tianjian Sect.

The sect was very quiet, but Chen Lang always felt that the atmosphere was a little weird. As he walked along, he saw several elders patrolling, and the elder who was giving the speech was among them.

"Chen Lang, congratulations on becoming a member of the Heavenly Ranking."

A figure suddenly appeared. It was the old woman from the Goddess Peak. She had a peaceful attitude and handed Chen Lang a waist badge which was purple and gold in color.

"Put away your old badge and wear this from now on."

"What's the use of this?" Chen Lang took it and looked at it for a moment.

Granny Si said, "Take this card and you can go to the Sutra Library and the Medicine Shop. You will have a certain amount of resources to spend freely every year. I won't tell you how much it is. Just show them the card and someone will tell you."

"Also, with this life card, you can bypass the Elder Council and make any decision in the name of the Heavenly Sword Sect, but you need to report back to the Elder Council afterwards." Granny Si glanced at Chen Lang and said, "But you'd better be more careful. If you act improperly, we will confiscate the Elder Card. You should know that it is not easy to get it. If it is confiscated, you will not have a second chance to get it."

I think it's easy. Chen Lang put away the badge and said, "Got it."

As a disciple on the Heavenly Ranking, he knew about some of the benefits, such as being able to practice the sect's secret sword technique. This was what he was about to do, as he was in need of a magical power that he could show off.

“By the way, aren’t there a lot of disciples on the Heavenly Ranking this time?” Chen Lang suddenly remembered that the bastard Hundred-Faced Demon Lord had put the names of all his disciples on the list. How low must the value of this list be?
"You really believe it." Granny Si chuckled, "Just change another stele."

"That old sect leader." Chen Lang said again. He didn't know whether the temple keeper Lao Deng had told anyone about him.

"Don't mention it again."

Speaking of this, Granny Si's face was not very good, "Just pretend he has never been here."

Sure enough, when Chen Lang returned and met Zhong Haoran, he discovered that several elders were there, such as Zhou Tianzheng, Elder Shi, Elder Speech, etc.

There is a stone table in front, with a circle of clock-like scales engraved on it, and a spoon is placed on it, rotating in the air.

And the caster was Zhong Haoran.

"Have you found it?" Zhou Tian was urging from the side.

Zhong Haoran opened his eyes and said, "No, he's missing."

"You can't catch him?"

Zhou Tianzheng's face was very dark, "This stinky rat, does it have such great power?"

This damn thing, it would have been bad enough if he had not stolen from the Lu family, but he even had the audacity to impersonate the old sect leader and scared the whole bunch of elders. I really wanted to skin him alive.

"Hmph, someone should have caught him long ago. What's the point in you rushing to catch him now?" Elder Shi chuckled beside him.

"Do you really know?" Zhou Tianzheng looked at Zhong Haoran. He was also surprised. If Zhong Haoran had seen through the identity of the "old sect leader" from the beginning, why didn't he expose it?

"He carried the will of that person, but it might not have been himself at that time." Zhong Haoran just shook his head, not wanting to explain more, and then turned his head and said:

"come in."
