After the destruction of the Immortal Realm, I took in the fallen fairy.

As the Rabbit Fairy revealed the full list of names on the Fairy Ranking, Lin Heng nodded to Yu Zhiyue: "Let's go."

"Um."

With more and more people gathering around, both he, as the spokesperson for the Five Elements Immortal Venerable, and Yu Zhiyue, who ranked first on the Immortal Beauty Ranking, naturally had to take this opportunity to make their appearance as much as possible.

To put it bluntly, it's about getting your face known.

After all, the Dark Sect's cultivation method, which treats fairies as consumables, is ultimately not respectable.

If the Dark Sect were to take action against Lin Heng and Yu Zhiyue again, their clandestine cultivation methods would be completely exposed!

If this method were to spread, it would mean making an enemy of the entire Immortal Realm.

This is also the fundamental reason why Lin Heng bestowed upon himself the title of Five Sources Immortal Venerable and established the Immortal Ranking.

However, that's not the whole reason.

For example, after Lin Heng proclaimed himself the Five Sources Immortal Venerable, he obtained a lot of spiritual herb seeds from the Immortal Realm, making his Immortal Farming Spiritual Field have almost every kind of spiritual herb.

The same applies to the establishment of the Fairy Ranking.

Don't be fooled by the fact that he set up the Fairy Ranking, which practically gives away so many benefits to the fairies for free, as if he himself didn't gain any real benefit.

But if at this moment, someone who understands Lin Heng's style of doing things well were present, such as Tian Qianchen from the Magic Calendar Era...

He must think that Lin Heng is definitely planning to use the Immortal Ranking to pull off a big heist!

After all, judging from past experience, how could this shameless and unscrupulous businessman possibly give away benefits to others for free?

In fact, Lin Heng's arrangements went beyond that.

As the Rabbit Fairy continued to announce the list of those ranked lower on the Fairy Ranking, more and more people gathered in Guiyuan City to watch the spectacle.

Standing on the other side of Lin Heng, Xia Yonghe recognized several old acquaintances among them.

These people are all big shots with names and surnames in Guiyuan City!

For example, on the left side, there are two old guys with the Spirit Realm.

They are Mr. Lu, the owner of Qingyifang, and Mr. Wang, the herbal medicine supplier he often patronizes.

Looking slightly to the right, you'll find Boss Tu, the largest martial arts manual dealer in Guiyuan City.

He seems to have also reached the Nascent Soul Realm...

But as Xia Yonghe continued to sweep through the crowd, his eyelids twitched involuntarily.

Why is Tian Lixiu from the Yunling Sect here too?

That old guy, isn't he supposed to be busy with sect affairs all day because their sect leader is in seclusion? How come he has time to join in this mess...?

correct!

His involvement in this commotion might actually be related to matters concerning the Yunling Sect.

Xia Yonghe stroked his chin, thinking to himself.

After all, not long ago, he personally led a group to the farmhouse to ask the Five Sources Immortal Venerable for the Spirit Restoration Array.

Therefore, he naturally needs to pay more attention to the Immortal Ranking established by the Five Source Immortal Venerable.

However, Xia Yonghe felt that Tian Lixiu's visit was not simply to flatter the Five Source Immortal Venerable.

After all, the rewards on the Immortal Ranking are far more enticing than the treatment of core disciples in many sects.

If a major sect like Yunling Sect were to cooperate with the Five Sources Immortal Venerable to find more opportunities for their sect's fairies to be listed on the rankings...

Isn't this also beneficial to the development of the sect?

Yes, that's it!

Xia Yonghe suddenly understood, and at the same time glanced at Lin Heng beside him with a hint of admiration.

This little guy...

First, he used the name of the Five Sources Immortal Venerable to attract everyone's attention by constructing arrays and using spiritual herbs, making people full of respect for the Five Sources Immortal Venerable.

At this time, he used the name of the Five Source Immortal Venerable to launch a seemingly beneficial Immortal Ranking for the cultivation of fairies.

He had been thinking about it before.

Why would Lin Heng set up such a list of immortal beauties and share spiritual herbs and formations for free?

Although it's unlikely anyone can shake his position at the top of the list...

But any fairy who makes it into the top ten will actually receive real benefits!

But would anyone really give someone something for no reason?

Xia Yonghe never thought that way.

Since its announcement, the Immortal Ranking has not explained what benefits the Five Source Immortal Venerables can gain from it.

Judging from the Rabbit Fairy's words when announcing the list of immortal talents, the Five Source Immortal Venerables are concerned about the development of the immortal realm and want to provide more resources for the exceptionally talented immortals...

Only a fool would believe this nonsense!

Even the idea that the Five Elements Immortal Venerable was simply lonely due to his spiritual roots and wanted to use this method to please his eyes is more plausible than the claim that he was concerned about the development of the Immortal Realm.

But is it really so?

Xia Yonghe narrowed his eyes slightly as he sized up Lin Heng.

This guy's idea is simply to use the generous rewards of the Immortal Ranking to attract all the major sects to actively seek cooperation with him!

For example, the Yunling Sect and his own Cuitu Sect do indeed need his help in constructing arrays.

On the other hand, these large sects with thousands of years of history possess countless resources that can help cultivators in their cultivation.

So for Lin Heng, a cultivator who has only reached the Crystallization Realm, the resources he will need in the future will be quite substantial!

It must be said that Xia Yonghe did indeed guess Lin Heng's thoughts correctly this time, but not entirely.

He thought that Lin Heng was only after the resources of these major sects and wanted to help him with his cultivation.

What Lin Heng truly valued were the mineral resources controlled by major sects like Yunling Sect...

It's worth noting that the last time the Nine Seas Goddess Statue was built, it practically emptied out the mineral resources of the Cloud Oasis.

Simply relying on the mining at Xuanji Mine to build the next goddess statue would take forever.

Even the Tian Shu Kingdom's imperial palace, which promised to provide him with ore, probably wouldn't be able to obtain that much ore in a short time...

So, if we could get a thousand or eight hundred boxes of ore from the more mineral-rich Immortal Realm, wouldn't we no longer have the problem of lacking ore?

So, seeing more and more cultivators, each with a higher cultivation level, coming to watch, Lin Heng smiled and curled up the corners of his mouth.

At the same time, he also inadvertently twirled the storage ring that Yu Zhiyue had given him...

Holy crap!

Suddenly, Xia Yonghe couldn't help but curse.

His gaze fell on a fox spirit in green robes in the crowd: "Young friend Lin Heng, I might have to go and say hello..."

"Oh?"

Lin Heng followed Xia Yonghe's gaze and then raised an eyebrow.

He clearly noticed that Xia Yonghe's gaze towards the blue-robed fox spirit was distinctly different from the way he had looked at another fox spirit from the Quenching Earth Sect.

Xia Yonghe felt more greed and desire towards the fox spirit he had met before.

But his gaze held only respect for the fox spirit in green before him.

It should be noted that in the immortal realm, the status of demon immortals is lower than that of ordinary cultivators.

Otherwise, there wouldn't be situations like those Foundation Establishment cultivators and Golden Core demon immortals being sold as spirit beasts in the dark alleys.

However, if a cultivator truly feels awe for a demon immortal, it can only mean that the demon immortal has far surpassed ordinary people in terms of cultivation level.

"At least, it's the Enlightenment Realm."

Lin Heng silently made a judgment in his heart.

Although the fairy in green had concealed her aura well, she had been quite close to Gesang Nazha and Mu Tinglan, who were both at the Enlightenment Realm.

After Lin Heng arrived in the Immortal Realm through the Immortal Ancient Secret Realm, apart from learning from Yu Zhiyue that his uncle, the former prime minister of Tian Shu Kingdom, was suspected to be a cultivator in the Enlightenment Realm, he had never heard of or seen a cultivator in the Enlightenment Realm.

So he couldn't help but ask Xia Yonghe with some curiosity, "Elder Xia, who exactly is that fox spirit you saw? Why doesn't her portrait appear on the list of immortal beauties that was sent? Logically speaking, her appearance should match the list of immortal beauties..."

Xia Yonghe rolled his eyes speechlessly: "That's... our Sect Master of the Earth Tempering Sect! Do you think anyone in the Earth Tempering Sect would dare to paint her portrait...?"
