Chapter 253 The Third Level of Dao Realm is Highly Sought After

Upon learning that the Yanlu Sect had actually received the support of the Crown Prince, the elders and disciples of the Yanlu Sect were greatly encouraged.

In this way, the Yanlu Sect can appear openly and legitimately in everyone's sight.

The entire sect was filled with excitement, while Xu Ning returned to his room, preparing to raise his strength to the third level of the Dao Realm, the Origin Realm.

Xu Ning first entered the Hidden Moon Pearl and absorbed 220 million units of energy to prepare for advancing to the Origin Realm.

After consuming and allocating some resources to Cheng Zengtao, the energy value of the resources within the Hidden Moon Pearl still stands at 500 million units.

After absorbing another 220 million units, less than 300 million remain.

Although resource reserves are decreasing, as long as we have the strength to guarantee them, accumulating resources in the future will not be difficult.

"Martial Arts Panel"

With a thought, Xu Ning brought up his martial arts panel and then clicked the "+" next to his realm.

-

Should I consume 2.2 million units of energy to advance to the Dao Realm Level 3, Returning to Origin Realm?

whether

-

After Xu Ning confirmed this, the nascent inner core within his body began to rotate rapidly.

This unleashed a large amount of true source power, further enhancing Xu Ning's physical strength and the strength of his Dao Realm power.

Compared to before, Xu Ning's Dao Realm power is now more robust and intense.

"Compared to the previous Qi Condensation Realm, this advancement is not a qualitative change."

Xu Ning thought to himself, "The Origin Returning Realm is essentially laying a solid foundation and providing a guarantee for the Core Formation Realm. Only when the Origin Returning Realm has abundant reserves and a solid foundation can the risk of advancing to the Core Formation Realm be reduced, and the quality of the inner core after the advancement can be higher."

"Although it's not a qualitative change, my strength has still increased significantly."

"Moreover, once you reach the Origin Realm, you can forge your own Dao Weapon."

Xu Ning sensed the changes in his body: "A single-attribute Grandmaster can forge a single-attribute Dao Weapon. A dual-attribute Grandmaster or one who has mastered a special technique can forge an all-attribute Dao Weapon that is compatible with all attributes."

"However, forging Dao weapons is a time-consuming and laborious process. Now that I have the Azure Wolf Blade, there is no need for me to forge one myself."

Xu Ning's Azure Wolf Blade and Qing Ying's Azure Wolf Fan were obtained by Wan Ye in a secret realm.

It contains a portion of the Azure Wolf's will, and its strength lies between that of ordinary Dao soldiers and secret treasures.

The Blood-Blue Wolf, Qingying, was also brought out by Wanye from the secret realm.

At that time, Qingying was still an egg, and it was only after Wanye brought her out that she hatched.

"Now that I've advanced to the Origin Returning Realm, the next step is to advance to the Core Formation Realm."

Xu Ning tested the martial arts panel and found that it would take 450 million units of energy to advance from the Origin Returning Realm to the Core Formation Realm.

This time, Xu Ning doesn't need to do any additional preparation.

However, another energy gap has appeared for the promotion.

In fact, according to Xu Ning's expectations, if he hadn't given 30% of the resources to Cheng Zengtao at that time, he would still have enough energy left to help him advance to the Core Formation Realm.

However, after distributing those resources, Xu Ning found himself somewhat short of energy.

After weighing the options, Xu Ning ultimately decided not to take it back.

Having already handed over this portion of the sect's resources, it would be extremely inappropriate to ask for them back.

"I still need 170 million units of energy to advance to the Core Formation Realm... Let's see if Shi Chenghao can help me contact some people who urgently need to refine complex pills. If everything goes smoothly, we can gather them in a short time..."

Xu Ning initially planned to reclaim the former territory of the Yanlu Sect after advancing to the Origin Realm.

However, after the breakthrough, Xu Ning felt that advancing to the Core Formation Realm would be more appropriate.

Moreover, I also need some time to replenish the ash and smoke in the smoke gourd.

"The news that Yanlu Sect has aligned itself with the young master will surely spread quickly... If I'm not mistaken, in the coming period, quite a few people in Guanghe County should come to seek refuge with them..."

Xu Ning pondered this in his heart.

"Next, the Yanlu Sect should be about to experience its first wave of rapid growth..."

……

Just two days later, Prince Ye's son, Duan Chaofeng, left Guanghe County.

Normally, after the Crown Prince leaves, the major families of Guanghe County should settle down.

However, nowadays, the various families are becoming quite active.

Because everyone has received definite news in the past two days.

Within Guanghe County, there was a small sect called Yanlu Sect that actually managed to get close to the crown prince.

Although most people didn't have much of an impression of the Yanlu Sect before, now everyone realizes that the Yanlu Sect, which has the support of the young master, is about to prosper.

In an instant, all the major families were urgently dispatching and selecting their outstanding elite descendants to prepare to send them to the Yanlu Sect as disciples.

All the major families in Guanghe County were well aware that although they were all incredibly prestigious in Guanghe County, they were still far inferior to Prince Ye.

It can be said that this is their only chance to get in touch with the Ye Prince's Mansion.

If a younger generation member performs exceptionally well after entering the Yanlu Sect, there is a very high probability that they will be noticed by the heir apparent.

At that time, the entire family will also benefit from it.

That is why the previously unpopular Yanlu Sect has suddenly become extremely popular.

After this change occurred, the biggest beneficiaries, besides the Yanlu Sect itself, were the Cheng family.

Cheng Jinxian was overjoyed.

Originally, he intended to secretly help the Yanlu Sect rebuild, taking a gamble on Xu Ning in the hope of gaining some long-term benefits in the future.

But unexpectedly, long-term benefits suddenly exploded in the short term.

Aside from initially investing in some marginalized family members and setting up a suburban villa, and taking on some risks, they didn't make any other contributions.

However, although he was delighted, Cheng Jinxian did not let himself be overwhelmed.

Some members of the family who knew the inside story urged Cheng Jinxian to select some outstanding disciples to send to the Yanlu Sect.

However, after thinking it over, Cheng Jinxian ultimately rejected the proposal.

Cheng Jinxian was well aware that the core disciples of the Yanlu Sect were all members of the Cheng family.

This wouldn't have been a problem when the Yanlu Sect was weak, but now, if they continue to rely on the Cheng family, the Yanlu Sect will fall into a situation where it is controlled by the Cheng family.

That would inevitably arouse suspicion from its sect leader, Xu Ning.

Xu Ning is no longer the same as before, so Cheng Jinxian naturally has to pay more attention to him.

Of course, Cheng Jinxian also knew that although there were many Cheng family members sent to Yanlu Sect, their talents were not outstanding. He had to send in a Cheng family member with top-notch talent so that he could occupy a high position in Yanlu Sect in the future.

Cheng Jinxian, the top disciple, has already been selected, but we have to wait a while and send him into the program through Cheng Zengtao.

……

Yanlu Zong.

"Brother Shi, it's been a long time!"

On this day, Xu Ning personally welcomed Shi Chenghao, who had come to visit.

In recent days, Yanluzong has been bustling with activity, attracting countless visitors.

Some came to build a relationship, while others came to become disciples.

Xu Ning delegated all these miscellaneous tasks to Cheng Zengtao and others.

He was only responsible for meeting with the heads of some large families and approving the number of true disciples to be admitted.

Shi Chenghao came to visit today. If it were anyone else, someone of his status would have been greeted by Cheng Zengtao and others, and Xu Ning wouldn't have needed to make an effort.

However, Xu Ning and Shi Chenghao had a prior relationship, so naturally, Xu Ning had to give him face.

"Sect Leader Xu, you are truly a master of disguise!"

Shi Chenghao strode forward, his face beaming with smiles.

Seeing Xu Ning personally greet him, Shi Chenghao was beaming with pride.

Xu Ning is currently the most prominent person in Guanghe County. When other families come to visit, only the family patriarch receives such treatment, and he himself is enjoying it as well.

"Brother Shi, please don't be offended. Previously, our sect was weak and could only rebuild in secret, not daring to expose ourselves. It's only now that we've suddenly gained the favor of the Crown Prince that the situation has improved somewhat."

Xu Ning treated Shi Chenghao with the same equality as friends, which warmed Shi Chenghao's heart.

He knew very well that the favor he had done for Xu Ning back then had not been in vain.

"We have a friendship, and now that the Yanlu Sect is being rebuilt, I would like to do my part."

Shi Chenghao said, "My family asked me to bring some gifts, which I have already given to Brother Cheng. I hope they will be of some help to the Yanlu Sect."

"Then thank you very much, Brother Shi."

Xu Ning did not refuse.

In the past few days, visitors have brought a large amount of martial arts resources as gifts, and the resources of Yanlu Sect have become abundant once again.

"Brother Xu, I have a request."

After exchanging a few more pleasantries, Shi Chenghao said...

At this moment, Shi Chenghao had been personally led to his villa by Xu Ning, a privilege that no one else had received.

"Speaking."

Xu Ning had already guessed what Shi Chenghao was thinking.

"Our Shi family also has many elite disciples whom we wish to send to the Yanlu Sect for cultivation. What do you think, Brother Xu?"

Shi Chenghao's words did not surprise Xu Ning.

"How many people?"

Xu Ning inquired.

Shi Chenghao paused for a moment, then said half-jokingly, "Of course, the more the better!"

After saying that, the two looked at each other and burst into laughter.

"Stop joking."

Seeing that Xu Ning did not agree, Shi Chenghao also knew his limits: "I want to send five of my family's younger generation to the Yanlu Sect."

"too much."

Xu Ning said, "Other families only have two spots for disciples sent to the Yanlu Sect: one for a true disciple and one for an inner disciple."

The Yanlu Sect has now been standardized, with separate branches for true disciples, inner disciples, and outer disciples.

The true disciples are all from various families in Guanghe County. The inner and outer sects mainly include young people from ordinary backgrounds in Guanghe County who have passed the examinations to enter.

Shi Chenghao frowned, realizing that his suggestion was somewhat excessive.

"I'll give the Shi family three spots."

Xu Ning said, "Moreover, you and I are old friends. I can take one of your disciples as my personal disciple, and the other two can also obtain the status of personal disciple."

Shi Chenghao was overjoyed upon hearing this: "Thank you, Brother Xu!"

The value of this one direct disciple is even greater than that of five ordinary true disciples.

Shi Chenghao also genuinely felt Xu Ning's respect.

"Brother Shi, you're too kind."

Xu Ning waved his hand.

Shi Chenghao was delighted. He knew very well that, thanks to his relationship with Xu Ning, his status in the family would rise to a higher level.

With his qualifications, he could only find a job in the family business.

Now, I have a great opportunity to become a clan elder.
