History's Number 1 Founder

Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations

Just like what Lin Feng thought, the entire Grand Celestial World had its attention on him and the Celestial Sect of Wonders.

It's fine if no one knew of anything they were doing. But once someone knew, countless speculations arose in the Grand Celestial World. These speculations affected the judgment and decisions of many.

The outside world was even more sensitive to the changes in power of the Celestial Sect of Wonders than the Celestial Sect of Wonders' disciples themselves.

In the past, this was the same thing that happened to the Great Void Sect in the Divine Lands.

While the other powers wouldn't dare to neglect the Great Void Sect and continued to monitor them closely, they were of less importance than the Celestial Sect of Wonders now.

Even the Great Void Sect had to monitor the Celestial Sect of Wonders closely. They took them even more seriously than before.

The Great Void Sect obtained practically nothing in this War of the Two Worlds and they had even suffered immense losses.

The Qing Yi Holy Woman and Yan Nanlai perished in the war, while the Tai Yi Holy Man, Zheng Yi Holy Man and Xuan Yi Holy Man all suffered from critical injuries. The Great Void Nine Heavenly Palaces was taken down by the Hades tribe. Although Mount Baiyun wasn't destroyed, its vital energy was greatly affected too.

Yun Yuanzhen, the Xuan Lin Holy Man and many other Supreme Elders from the Great Void Sect were also hurt.

After this War of the Two Worlds, the Great Void Sect entered its weakest stage ever since they entered the Modern Age. In their entire history, this might even be their lowest point.

After Lin Feng's four sword strikes determined the result of this War of the Two Worlds, the Divine Lands mounted a counterattack and managed to seize territories in the Barren Expanses. The humans gained the upper hand.

The Great Void Sect didn't join this counterattack. They only regained control of Mount Taihua and operated it once again. They remained very low-profile and abnormally quiet in the humans' successful counterattack against the demons.

The Tai Yi Holy Man and Zheng Yi Holy Man never left Mount Baiyun after they returned.

Everyone was perplexed by the Great Void Sect's actions. Although they didn't manage to gain anything useful and even suffered losses, the contributions they made in this War of the Two Worlds couldn't be underestimated.

Now that the humans gained an overwhelming victory, the Great Void Sect turned low-profile. This style of giving without taking was contrary to the Great Void Sect's normal working style.

But it didn't seem as if they were trying to avoid comparisons to the Celestial Sect of Wonders which had turned the tides.

Their abnormal actions left everyone confused and they started to ponder over what the Great Void Sect was thinking.

On Mount Baiyun, many of the Great Void Sect disciples of lower cultivations couldn't understand too. This left them uncomfortable.

But the bunch of elders from the Great Void Sect were very calm.

Above Mount Baiyun, the Tai Yi Holy Man sat cross-legged with his eyes shut. His face appeared a little pale.

An abstruse and surreal streak of mirror light shone above Mount Baiyun once again. As it hanged in the sky, white clouds gathered once again and covered Mount Baiyun.

There was an elder with white hair and charming youth that sat beside the Tai Yi Holy Man to his left and right respectively. They were the Zheng Yi Holy Man and Xuan Yi Holy Man. But they appeared down casted just like the Tai Yi Holy Man. They were both struck with injuries, especially the Xuan Yi Holy Man who was greatly hurt.

Opposite them, there were the rest of the Supreme Elder Council. Kuang Heng and Fu Yunkong appeared as light projections, as they were on Mount Taihua in the Barren Expanses.

Apart from the bunch of Supreme Elders, Lin Daohan was also present.

Whereas the Black Scales Dragon King and Fire Cloud Dragon King from the Supreme Dragon Roost didn't join in this meeting.

In the War of the Two Worlds, these two dragon kings would join the Great Void Sect in fighting the other demons as long as it wasn't against the Dragons.

Both of them couldn't join the Tai Yi Holy Man and the rest as they entered the Black Sea this time. They remained on Mount Baiyun. However, they were unable to resist the powerful Hades Beast like the Illusory Sun Hades, Qinglian and Kongyuan, who were above the Undying Demon Soul Third Level.

The appearance of these two dragon kings only provoked the Undying Demon Soul Third Level Hades Beasts.

They were unable to fill the gap left by the Supreme Yin-Yang Void Formation and could only remain under the protection of Mount Baiyun along with the other Great Void Sect disciples of lower cultivations.

After their entire defense was taken apart by the Hades Beast, the dragons in the Supreme Dragon Roost would react. But before this, they could only wait.

They didn't join in the meeting this time because this Supreme Elder Council meeting had one very special matter to deal with in the agenda.

They had to decide who the new leader of the Great Void Sect was going to be, since Yan Nanlai had already perished.

The Tai Yi Holy Man blinked and looked at Lin Daohan in front of him. He said slowly, "Daohan, the situation changed beyond everyone's expectations. The burden must fall on you earlier."

Lin Daohan knelt on the ground and kowtowed towards the Tai Yi Holy Man, "I understand. I will do my best."

The Qing Ning Holy Man, Yu Yuan Holy Man, Fu Yunkong, Yun Yuanzhen and Cai Fengzhou appeared very calm, while the expressions of Kuang Heng, the Xuan Lin Holy Man and Wu Mengqi didn't change.

Besides the Zheng Yi Holy Man, the most experienced and highest cultivated elder in the Radical Faction, Kuang Heng, decided to proceed towards the Barren Expanses at this critical point. He clearly showed the attitude of the Radical Faction.

Although the Great Void Sect had lost two valuable members, the Qing Yi Holy Woman and Yan Nanlai were both from the Conservative Faction. Losing them diminished the powers of the Conservation Faction. But if the Great Void Sect decided to engage in an internal strife at this point, they would exterminate themselves.

The Tai Yi Holy Man pointed with his finger and a mystical rune that flashed with radiance appeared in mid-air. It was the symbol that the leader of the Great Void Sect would inherit, the Great Void Seal.

After Yan Nanlai perished, the Great Void Seal was separated from his body and returned to Mount Baiyun.

After the Tai Yi Holy Man and the others took the Supreme Heavenly Mirror back to Mount Baiyun, they used its powers to restore the Great Void Seal.

Lin Daohan's gaze flickered slightly as he saw the Great Void Seal. His look of sorrow disappeared and appeared as calm as ever. He lifted the back of his left hand and the Great Void Seal floated over before landing on it.

The mirror light above the mountain landed and shone upon Lin Daohan and the Great Void Seal.

Amidst the light, Lin Daohan's figure disappeared. A voice resonated, "I, Lin Daohan, will follow in the footsteps of past leaders of the sect. I will do my best for the sect."

The Supreme Heavenly Mirror shook at this point. As it unleashed its lights, they shone on the entire Greater World.

Above the mountain, a surreal light ball appeared once again. It was divided into nine tiers. It was the Great Void Nine Heavenly Palaces.

At the peak of Mount Baiyun, Kuang Heng, the Qing Ning Holy Man and Wu Mengqi bowed towards the light, "Leader."

Even the Tai Yi Holy Man, Zheng Yi Holy Man and Xuan Yi Holy Man lowered their heads at this special moment, "Leader."

On Mount Baiyun, all the Great Void Sect disciples lifted their heads towards the mountain peak and greeted together.

As the ceremony ended, the Great Void Nine Heavenly Palaces disappeared. But the mirror light that shone on Lin Daohan didn't disappear. His entire person was still covered by the light.

The Tai Yi Holy Man asked, "Daohan, what's your first plan of action?"

Lin Daohan's voice sounded, "Although we'll not seal the mountain, we should go into hiding mode. Our priority is to allow the Supreme Heavenly Mirror to restore to its full abilities. At the same time, we'll shall recuperate too."

After hearing Lin Daohan's decision, the Tai Yi Holy Man nodded his head slightly. Besides the Xuan Yi Holy Man, Fu Yunkong and the rest, the Zheng Yi Holy Man, Kuang Heng and others from the Radical Faction nodded their heads too.

"If the Great Void Sect's powers are not restored, it'll be very difficult for us to challenge Lin Feng's Heaven-Destroying Sword." The Zheng Yi Holy Man said, "Although he turned the tide in the War of the Two Worlds and helped the Divine Lands to attain victory, things would be disastrous if he can't control his sword."

The Xuan Yi Holy Man was silent for a while before he said, "After his Heaven-Destroying Sword was successfully cultivated after it was unsealed, I noticed that he combined both the mantras of the humans and demons together."

The Tai Yi Holy Man said quietly, "I have to admit that Lin Feng did play a very decisive role in the Divine Lands' victory although he was the one who made us enter the Black Sea to fight the Dragons."

"But he's too dangerous. If he makes a wrong move, he will become too destructive. We have to take precautions."

Lin Daohan said softly, "Even if the Supreme Heavenly Mirror fully restores, it'll only match his sword. Anything we do we'll only lead to great repercussions. Eventually, the demons will take advantage of this."

"The only way to break this stalemate and the only chance we have is through the Spirit Sea…"

The Tai Yi Holy Man and the others nodded their heads. Lin Feng would not watch from one side as the Spirit Sea opens up. But he couldn't bring his Heaven-Destroying Sword into the Spirit Sea. Otherwise, he would suffer from the discrimination by the Spirit Sea and even be attacked by it.

Lin Feng definitely had the intention to control the Spirit Sea. Although he wasn't afraid of the Spirit Sea with the Heaven-Destroying Sword, he wouldn't be able to control it because of the Spirit Sea's intense hatred towards his sword.

On the contrary, others might be given the opportunity to cultivate the Spirit Sea because of his relationship with the Heaven-Destroying Sword.

The awkward encounter between the Tai Yi Holy Man and Lin Feng when they fought for the Crucible of the Divine Lands was a good precedent.

Without the Heaven-Destroying Sword, the Great Void Sect wasn't afraid of taking on Lin Feng even if the Supreme Heavenly Mirror wasn't in its peak state.

"Before this, we can only wait." The Zheng Yi Holy Man was indifferent as he said.
