Reaching the pinnacle from Doupo

Chapter 293 Danta, Elder Lin

After passing through the city gate and reaching the inner area, the noise from the outside world suddenly became much weaker.

The inner domain is the holy land in the hearts of countless alchemists. Many forces related to Danta or high-level alchemists are qualified to live in the inner domain, so its environment is very different from that of the outer domain.

The moment they set foot in the inner realm, Lin Yuan and Little Medical Fairy looked up, and their gazes were involuntarily fixed on the center of the inner realm.

There, a black tower reaches the sky, standing tall like a towering mountain. At a glance, the top of the tower is deep in the clouds, and it is difficult to see its top amidst the clouds and mist...

A sense of majestic grandeur surrounds this huge black tower, making it look extremely mysterious.

"Is that the Dan Tower...it lives up to its reputation!" Looking at the majestic tower in the distance, Lin Yuan's eyes showed a hint of admiration.

Such a magnificent building is even better than the Tiangang Didian I had seen before.

Elder Sheng smiled and nodded slightly, and led the two of them into the crowd on the street, heading straight for the Dan Tower. Not long after, the few of them successfully passed several strict inspections and entered the Dan Tower.

After entering the tower, Elder Sheng first settled the Little Medical Fairy down, then took Lin Yuan straight to the upper floors, and finally stopped outside a spacious hall.

"Please come in, my friend. The three guild leaders are waiting for you in the hall."

Elder Sheng gave some instructions, straightened his clothes, respectfully opened the hall door, and then winked at Lin Yuan.

Lin Yuan nodded slightly and walked in slowly...

After entering the hall, a platform several dozen meters high came into view. Three thrones stood side by side on the platform. At the same time, three gazes with a strong sense of exploration and some weight were cast down on the platform.

Lin Yuan walked slowly to the center of the hall, bowed his hands in a junior salute, and said respectfully: "Junior Lin Yuan, greetings to the three seniors!"

"Haha, no need to be so polite, little friend!"

A familiar voice sounded in the hall: "Since we parted yesterday, I have been looking forward to meeting you today! After hearing about it, the two old friends beside me are also quite interested in you, the number one genius among the younger generation..."

“Master Xuan, you are joking!” Lin Yuan cupped his hands and said calmly, “I don’t even dare to be the number one genius!”

"Haha, this is not a joke!" Xuan Kongzi looked at Lin Yuan with appreciation.

"You are able to refine an eighth-grade three-color elixir at such a young age. Looking across the continent, there are very few people who can reach this level! Among the younger generation, I am afraid that only a very small number of people in that clan can compete with you..."

"You have been able to grow to this point in a border area with scarce resources. Your future is even more limitless than theirs!"

"Mr. Xuan, you are too kind!" Lin Yuan chuckled and did not refute too much. He raised his head slightly and looked at the three people on the platform.

Sitting on the central throne was the Xuan Kongzi whom I met last night.

On the thrones on the left and right sides of it, there were two figures sitting upright, emitting a powerful aura.

On the throne on the left was a dark-skinned old man with a stern face and eyes like lightning, just like a stern teacher.

Tian Lei Zi is one of the three giants of Danta. According to the intelligence of Soul Palace, he is the most warlike person among the three giants.

On the throne on the right was a beautiful woman in cheongsam. Judging from her appearance, she was about thirty years old, but the indifferent expression on her face and the wise eyes faintly exuded the charm of time.

Xuan Yi, one of the three giants of Danta, is the first female giant in the history of Danta and also an old lover of Yao Lao.

"Let me introduce him to you." Xuan Kongzi smiled when he noticed Lin Yuan's gaze.

He looked at the old man on the left and chuckled, "This is President Tian Leizi, who is in charge of Danta's internal law enforcement and external conquests..."

"Junior Lin Yuan, greetings to President Tian Lei Zi." Lin Yuan bowed and said respectfully.

Looking at the handsome young man in front of him, Tian Leizi's stern face softened unusually, and he said in a deep voice: "Little friend Lin, welcome to Danta! I am very happy to see a younger generation like you with unlimited potential."

He already knew that the younger generation in front of him was interested in joining Danta and might very well be one of their own in the future.

Xuan Kongzi turned his gaze to the beautiful woman beside him and introduced her, "This is President Xuan Yi, the one that person asked you to bring a message to..."

Lin Yuan bowed again and said, "Lin Yuan greets President Xuan Yi!"

"My friend, there is no need to be so polite!" Xuan Yi, who was always calm, had a little more anxiety in his eyes at this moment, and asked softly: "What you told Xuan Kongzi yesterday, is it true? Has Yao Chen, that damn... guy, really returned again?"

Seeing Xuan Yi's state which was very different from usual, Tian Lei Zi and Xuan Kong Zi looked at each other, with a hint of helplessness in their eyes.

Hearing this, Lin Yuan nodded slightly and said seriously: "When I left the Star Territory Pavilion's star realm, Medicine Venerable had already fully recovered. You three will know from reading this letter..."

As he spoke, he took out Yao Lao's letter, raised his hand, and the letter, which carried a hint of soul aura, appeared in front of Xuan Yi.

"It can't be wrong, it's really the soul of that dead ghost..." Feeling the familiar and nostalgic breath, a hint of surprise flashed in Xuanyi's eyes, so he hurriedly took the letter in front of him and read it carefully.

After reading it, she handed the letter to Xuan Kongzi and said softly: "Little friend Lin, come with me! I want to ask you something..."

Before he finished speaking, Xuan Yi's figure flashed and appeared in front of Lin Yuan strangely, grabbing Lin Yuan's shoulder.

Following a change in space, Xuan Yi and Lin Yuan appeared in a simple and elegant study.

Letting go of Lin Yuan, Xuan Yi hesitated for a moment, then he actually bowed to Lin Yuan and said in a deep voice: "Little friend Lin, thank you for the resurrection of Yao Chen! I will do my best to support you in some subsequent matters in Danta..."

Hearing this, Lin Yuan's face suddenly lit up and he apologized, "Thank you, senior!"

"Yes!" Xuan Yi nodded and continued, "I have something else to ask you about Yao Chen. Can you tell me?"

“Of course!” Lin Yuan nodded slightly and chuckled, “Senior Yao said that if you ask about his detailed situation… he can tell you! In addition, he also asked me to tell you a message - he will come to see you in a few days!”

"Really? He will come to see me..." Xuan Yi's eyes softened a little, and he said gently: "My friend, how did you and Yao Chen meet?"

"My encounter with Senior Yao..." Lin Yuan's eyes flashed with memories, and he sighed faintly: "It was really a wonderful fate. This matter can be traced back to three years ago, in a corner of the Monster Forest of the Jia Ma Empire in the northwest continent! The details are as follows..."

Afterwards, Lin Yuan narrated to Xuan Yi everything that had happened in the past objectively and truthfully, of course, he only selectively told some of it.

It didn't take long for him to finish telling the story.

After listening to Lin Yuan's story, Xuan Yi was silent for a long time, and then he sighed: "In these few short years, so many things have happened to him, and he even accepted a new disciple..." When he mentioned the word "disciple", a hint of worry appeared in Xuan Yi's eyes.

Once upon a time, she and Yao Chen were only one step away from each other, but because Yao Chen accepted Han Feng as his disciple, the two missed each other. I wonder if this time...

"Forget it, it's good that he can come back."

Shaking his head, Xuan Yi suppressed the distracting thoughts in his mind and said to Lin Yuan gently: "Thank you very much. If it weren't for you, Yao Chen would not have been resurrected, and might have fallen into the hands of the Soul Palace in the battle of the Jia Ma Empire..."

Lin Yuan smiled slightly and said calmly: "Senior, don't worry about it. It's just a fair trade."

Xuan Yi shook his head, with a plan in mind, but he didn't say much. He just took Lin Yuan back to the previous hall.

When he entered the hall again, the looks in Xuankongzi and Tianleizi's eyes showed a little more intimacy and appreciation than before.

When Lin Yuan saw this, he immediately understood - Yao Lao's letter had worked.

Just as Lin Yuan had expected before, the three giants of Danta highly recognized Yao Chen's character and trusted his words very much.

With Yao Lao testifying to Mu Gu's death and recommending Lin Yuan to join Danta, plus Mang Tianchi's previous invitation, Lin Yuan gained the trust of the three people in just today.

“You’re not bad, you actually killed that guy Mu Gu!” Xuan Kongzi patted Lin Yuan’s shoulder and gloated, “Old ghost Mu Gu died because of robbing the young man’s strange fire. It’s really a tragic way for him to die…”

“Haha, this is a heavy blow to the Soul Palace.” Tian Lei Zi sneered.

For the Soul Palace, the death of a Dou Zun was nothing, but the loss of an extremely rare eighth-grade alchemist was definitely a major loss.

The three of them felt that they understood why Lin Yuan wanted to join Danta: first, to practice medicine in Danta, after all, Danta was a force with a ninth-grade inheritance; second, to seek Danta's protection to deal with the threat from the Soul Palace.

The Soul Palace is not a pushover. If you kill their eighth-grade alchemist, you will be targeted sooner or later.

Facing the Soul Palace, Mang Tianchi and Canaan Academy could not protect Lin Yuan. As a top alchemy genius, Danta was naturally his best choice.

Everything is logical and everything is reasonable.

Seeing the way they looked at him as if he were a junior, Lin Yuan smiled slightly and asked, "Three seniors, regarding my wish to join, I wonder…"

Hearing this, the three giants looked at each other and made a decision through eye contact.

"Of course I agree to this." Xuan Kongzi made the decision directly and said solemnly: "Dan Tower is a holy place for alchemists. Your talent is rare in the world. If you are willing to join Dan Tower, the three of us warmly welcome you..."

"That's right. Such a rough gem is a match made in heaven for my Danta." Tian Lei Zi agreed.

“I agree too!” Xuan Yi looked at Lin Yuan and said gently, “Lin Yuan, don’t worry! With the protection of Danta, you don’t have to worry about the threat of Soul Palace in the future…”

The three giants unanimously agreed, and even without any procedures, Lin Yuan was already considered a member of Danta.

Lin Yuan nodded slightly, straightened his expression, and said very seriously: "Thank you three presidents for your appreciation. Lin Yuan is willing to become a part of Danta."

Upon hearing this, Xuan Kongzi nodded with satisfaction, then gently hit his forehead and thought about the arrangements for Lin Yuan.

After a while, he finally made up his mind and looked at Lin Yuan intently.

"Lin Yuan, your alchemy skills have reached the eighth level, far exceeding the standard for Danta apprentices. Even the three of us can't teach you much, so you are not suitable to be a disciple of Danta. In this case, you can directly serve as the elder of Danta!"

"Anyway, killing old ghost Mu Gu is a merit enough to be promoted to elder, so this is just right..."

"An elder's identity, an identity certificate!"

"With this status, you can enjoy the benefits of an elder, such as living in the inner domain, accessing elder-level information, etc."

"However, although you are an elder, we will not assign you any tasks for at least the next three years. You just need to concentrate on your own cultivation."

"If you have any questions about alchemy, you can ask me at any time. If I know the answer, I will be happy to answer your questions. Of course, you can also ask Xuan Yi and Tian Lei Zi. I believe they will also be happy to answer your questions."

After saying that, he looked at his two colleagues with a smile and chuckled, "Am I right? My two old friends..."

"Of course!" Xuan Yi smiled and responded gently, "I do have some experience in alchemy, so feel free to ask me."

"Me too!" Tian Leizi echoed loudly.

"Thank you three seniors!" Lin Yuan bowed to them and said solemnly: "Lin Yuan will devote all his efforts to Danta in the future."

"I look forward to your future." Xuan Kongzi smiled, and with a flip of his hand, a black token and a white jade piece appeared in his palm, "Little Lin, give me two strands of your soul power."

Without any hesitation, Lin Yuan's mind moved, and two strands of soul power flew out from his eyebrows and landed in front of Xuan Kongzi.

Xuan Kongzi's face became serious, and he formed a mysterious seal with his hands. Two strands of soul power trembled, and the black token and white jade piece also emitted brilliant light.

As soon as the seal fell, he shouted in a low voice: "Split!"

Two strands of soul power, one flew into the black token, and the other flew into the white jade piece. The two immediately emitted a resonance, and ripples echoed with the two as the center, and then slowly dissipated.

Afterwards, Xuan Kongzi put away the white jade piece and handed the black token to Lin Yuan.

"Lin, this is your elder token. It can communicate with the white jade piece in a special way."

"As for the specific usage and some Danta information, they are all in it. You can find out by checking with your soul power. Take a look first. If you have any doubts, raise them now and I will answer them for you on the spot."

Lin Yuan took the token, closed his eyes lightly, and wrapped the token with soul power. A huge stream of information flowed from the black token into his brows.

After a few minutes, he slowly opened his eyes, and a hint of understanding flashed in the depths of his eyes.

"As expected of old rivals, their methods are so similar." With a sigh in his heart, Lin Yuan put away the token in his hand and said in a deep voice: "Thank you, Great Elder. I understand the basic situation and have no doubts at the moment..."

“Very good!” Xuan Kongzi clapped his hands and smiled slightly, “Lin Yuan, from now on you will be the first-class elder of Danta, for…Danta, Elder Lin!”

　After a long time, the introduction... was finally recovered! Canaan College Lin Yuan, Soul Palace Yuan Tianzun, and Elder Danta Lin, all three identities were gathered together.
