"Master?" Qin Yun's eyes opened.
During this studying of the changes to the Three Realms, the key result was his enlightenment in the Great Dao of Yin and Yang. Now that he already gained this insight, he was spending the past month consolidating his strength and fusing the Great Dao of Yin and Yang into the Misty Rain Array to enhance his defensive strength, trapping abilities, and offensive strength. Naturally, he could stop at any time.
"Master has suddenly summoned me? It likely has to do with the changes to the Three Realms," thought Qin Yun. Immediately, an avatar flew out and headed for Green Touring Palace.
…
Green Touring Palace.
The moment Qin Yun arrived, he sensed the location of his master. It was on the boundary of the Green Touring Palace's floating continent. Numinous Treasure was seated there, calmly watching the clouds tumble.
"Master." Qin Yun bowed reverently when he came near.
"I'll be leaving the Three Realms," said Numinous Treasure.
Qin Yun's heart tightened.
Leaving the Three Realms?
"Master, why the sudden need to leave the Three Realms?" Qin Yun recalled the changes to the Three Realms and inquired, "Is it because of the changes of the Three Realms?"
Numinous Treasure nodded and said, "Fiend Ancestor Black Lotus instigated the Daoist-Fiend war, causing countless Daoist, Buddhist, and fiendish cultivators to perish. After their deaths, their powers returned to the world, lessening the burden on the Three Realms. We thought the few of us would be able to remain in the Three Realms for another few million years, but Amita's breakthrough has caused the Three Realms to have a total of seven Heavenly Dao realm existences. The burden on the Three Realms has greatened drastically, thereby directly causing the change to the Three Realms."
"The Three Realms' Heavenly Dao knows what it cannot handle, resulting in direct change.
"It reduced the Heaven and Earth spiritual energies in the Three Realms, reducing the number of cultivators drastically, making it impossible to cultivate in many Small Worlds," said Numinous Treasure. "Furthermore, it will be chasing all seven of us Heavenly Dao realm fogies! Once we leave, the burden will be much more relaxed. It's possible that the Three Realms might even enter a self-regulating state, and that would be truly a blessing in disguise."
Qin Yun nodded slightly.
The Three Realms itself was constantly drawing on the powers in the Chaos to provide for the countless living beings that lived there.
If the absorption could match the expenditure, the Three Realms would not continue weakening. That would indeed be a joyous event for the countless beings in the Three Realms.
The Three Realms in its former state… was constantly in its waning phase.
"The Heavenly Dao will seek balance," said Qin Yun. "I believe after this change, the Three Realms will last for eternity."
"Yes." Numinous Treasure Dao Ancestor nodded and said, "This change in the Three Realms happened very quickly. In just a short month, the Heaven and Earth spiritual energies were drastically reduced. I sensed that the Three Realms are beginning to force the few of us out, and this expulsion is gradually growing stronger. If I'm not wrong, in seven days, if we haven't left, the Three Realms will expel us completely."
"Seven days?" Qin Yun was alarmed. That was too soon.
"Seven days is enough," said Numinous Treasure. "Having cultivated for so long, the thing I'm most worried about has been all my disciples. But with your appearance, I've been a lot more relieved. With you around, Green Touring Palace will not collapse."
"I will definitely do my best," said Qin Yun immediately.
"I've said before that I would make you be the new sect master of Green Touring Palace," said Numinous Treasure. "The time is now. Today, I'll inform all the disciples that we will be holding a sect master transfer ceremony tomorrow! You will succeed me as sect master."
Qin Yun could sense the urgency of the matter, but he still said reverently, "Yes, I will definitely not disappoint you."
"It also depends on Fiend Ancestor Black Lotus," said Numinous Treasure. "He must have sensed the expulsion from the Three Realms. With just seven days time, if he were to immediately flee the Three Realms, the rest of us will immediately leave to pursue him! In such a case, I will not be able to preside over this succession ceremony. But don't worry, I'll still inform every disciple.
"Also, this is Green Touring Palace's sect master token." Numinous Treasure flipped his hand and produced a green token. "Refine this for yourself and you can control all of Green Touring Palace. You will then be Green Touring Palace's sect master. This token shall now be yours."
With that said, he handed the token over to Qin Yun.
The token was actually recently refined. Numinous Treasure did not need a token to control the sect, but his successors would need it.
"Take it." Numinous Treasure looked at Qin Yun.
Qin Yun looked at the token and knew that he was gaining the responsibility of power.
It was the burden of being responsible for countless disciples of the Green Touring Palace lineage of the three Daoist lineages as well as the responsibility to protect the Three Realms. The Daoists, Buddhists, and Heavenly Courts had always been protecting the Three Realms. It was the fiends and some unbridled Chaos G.o.dfiends who wanted to make the Three Realms into a huge hunting ground.
"Your humble disciple accepts it." Qin Yun reverently received the token.
Numinous Treasure watched this scene feeling gratified.
This was an inheritance.
An inheritance of responsibility!
"Refine this token first. I will then tell you about Green Touring Palace properly," said Numinous Treasure.
…
The master began talking and the disciple began listening.
Green Touring Palace was the Dao residence of Numinous Treasure Dao Ancestor, which was also the core of the Green Touring Palace lineage. Here, there were places like the Myriad Dharma Pool, Star Cl.u.s.ter Hall, Treasure Splitting Cliff, Ten Absolutes Array, and many other places. All of them were heavily guarded with array formations. Even the Immortal Vanquis.h.i.+ng Array was just one of the ma.s.sive array formations in Green Touring Palace. With all of these formations combined, even Heavenly Dao experts could hardly crack through its defenses.
As for those below the Heavenly Dao realm? Without even reaching the requisite realm, they wouldn't even be able to find Green Touring Palace.
******
That day, Numinous Treasure Dao Ancestor informed all his disciples, from Old Mother of Blackfoal Mountain all the way to the ordinary Skyimmortal disciples. All of them received the news that their master was handing over the position of sect master to Qin Yun! The sect master sucession ceremony would be held in Green Touring Palace the very next day!
"It's only right that Senior Brother Qin takes over as sect master. However, Master still has a million years to go before leaving the Three Realms. Is there a need to hand it over in such a rush?"
"It's better to do the succession early. It will allow all of our fellow disciples to feel at ease. Now, I wouldn't accept anyone to take over as sect master except for Senior Brother Qin."
The Green Touring Palace disciples all had their opinions as they discussed.
However, no had any qualms about it.
After all, he was publicly acknowledged to have the strength of a half-step Heavenly Dao realm. He had a wide social connection and the other half-step Heavenly Dao realm existences like Ancestral Dragon and Hou Yi shared a extremely good relations.h.i.+p with him. Furthermore, with the flouris.h.i.+ng of the Misty Rain Sword Sect which Qin Yun had established, Qin Yun's level of influence was obvious.
…
There were many Green Touring Palace disciples, so the news quickly spread.
Mt. Lightning Roar was in euphoria as well.
The Qin family descendants on Mt. Lightning Roar were delighted. Clearly, they shared the glory upon seeing their patriarch, Sword Immortal Qin, become the sect master of Green Touring Palace.
"Brother Yun, in the past month, all the Heaven and Earth spiritual energies in the entire Three Realms have been declining. Even the Heavenly realm was halved," said Yi Xiao. "Now the Dao Ancestor is suddenly making you sect master, are all of these events related?"
"Yes. The Three Realms is changing. The Dao Ancestors will have to leave the Three Realms in a few days," said Qin Yun with a sigh. "The Three Realms is forcefully expelling them."
"They have to leave in a few days?" Yi Xiao was astonished before she added, "Then, would the Fiend Ancestor be leaving too?"
"He has to leave too." Qin Yun nodded. "However, the Dao Ancestors and Buddhist Ancestor will definitely not let him off."
"Oh?" Qin Yun p.r.i.c.ked up his brows.
"What's wrong?" Yi Xiao looked at him.
Qin Yun said, "Just moments ago, Jade Void Palace spread the news that the new sect master of Jade Void Palace would be Yang Jian. Similarly, they will be holding a succession ceremony tomorrow."
…
Green Touring Palace would be helmed by Qin Yun.
As for Jade Void Palace, it was to be helmed by Yang Jian!
The two pieces of news rapidly spread through the Three Realms, garnering the attention of countless cultivators.
If Qin Yun's taking over as sect master was something everyone felt acceptable, Yang Jian did cause a tiny stir. After all, Yang Jian was a third generation disciple of Jade Void Palace. The second-generation disciples were his Uncle-Masters. Furthermore, Guangchengzi had long reached the perfected Great Dao and held the Empyrean Seal with extremely formidable combat strength. At present, he was about Yang Jian's equal.
Of course, it was only a tiny stir. Jade Void Palace was still very united. Furthermore, the mighty figures all knew that Yang Jian was a perfected Great Dao expert of the Physical Establis.h.i.+ng Sage. He was already equal to Guangchengzi after breaking through. As long as he further consolidated his realm, it would be just a matter of time before he surpa.s.sed him and reached the half-step Heavenly Dao realm.
However, these two pieces of news still caused some panic.
"Sword Immortal Qin is taking over Green Touring Palace and Yang Jian is taking over Jade Void Palace. Furthermore, the news was spread on the same day. They are also holding their succession realms in a day. Now that the changes in the Three Realms have been so intense, there must be many secrets behind this which we are unaware of."
"We are just trivial figures. We can only go with the flow. At this moment, with the changes in the Three Realms, it's best we keep a low profile. Don't be careless or we might end up losing our lives."
"I plan on returning to enter seclusion, not to come out for at least ten thousand years."
"Reasonable. Seclude yourself and temporarily isolate yourself from the outside world. Don't involve yourself in any conflict."
Many cultivators in the Three Realms felt the incoming storm.
******
Fiend Ancestor Black Lotus did not flee immediately, allowing the Dao Ancestors to personally preside over a sect master succession ceremony.
The next day.
Green Touring Palace, main hall.
Tens of thousands of disciples were in the main hall, with Qin Yun standing right in front of all of them. Old Mother of Blackfoal Mountain stood slightly behind him as Numinous Treasure Dao Ancestor looked down with a smile.
Under the watchful gazes of all the disciples, Qin Yun officially received the position of new sect master from the Dao Ancestor.
"Greetings Sect Master."
Tens of thousands of Green Touring Palace disciples bowed reverently in unison.
…
In Jade Void Palace.
"Greetings Sect Master."
All the disciples in Jade Void Palace bowed reverently towards Yang Jian.
…
On that day, Qin Yun and Yang Jian respectively inherited the positions of Green Touring Palace and Jade Void Palace sect master.
The Three Realms had ushered in a brand new age.
