A piece of news sweeping through nearby states and the heavens of the lower realm suddenly gave him a glimmer of hope.
It was about a Dao Harmonization expert with the尊号 (zun hao, a respectful title) Tianxuan accepting disciples in Red Luo Holy State.
This keenly made him realize an opportunity for revenge.
If he could become his disciple, not to mention revenge, even resurrecting his fallen family members would not be difficult.
Therefore, Zhang Lian sold his only remaining natal magic weapon to obtain travel expenses to Tianxuan Holy Monarch's dojo, but just as he arrived at the foot of Tianxuan Holy Monarch's dojo full of hope, he was dumbfounded.
He underestimated the influence of a Dao Harmonization Holy Monarch accepting disciples.
Or rather, he overestimated himself.
The number of people who came was more than hundreds of millions, densely packed, covering the sky and the earth.
Even before his cultivation was crippled, he could only be ranked in the middle to lower ranks.
It was impossible for him to stand out from hundreds of millions of geniuses and become a disciple of Tianxuan Holy Monarch.
And his worry was soon confirmed.
He didn't even enter the gate and could only watch helplessly as Tianxuan Holy Monarch finished selecting disciples outside the dojo, and a lucky kid named Lin Teng became a disciple of Tianxuan Holy Monarch, while others left in disappointment.
This made Zhang Lian very unwilling.
"Hard work pays off. As long as I keep kneeling here and let Holy Monarch Tianxuan see my sincerity, I will definitely be able to move the Holy Monarch to accept me as a disciple."
Zhang Lian knelt on the ground, muttering to himself.
This was his only chance for revenge.
"Impudent, the Holy Monarch's acceptance of disciples has ended. The dojo is the residence of the Holy Monarch, no one is allowed to stay, leave quickly!"
However, before Zhang Lian could kneel for too long, a Chaos Grand Luo True Immortal descended, his eyes full of coldness, and scolded.
How could the Holy Monarch's dojo allow outsiders to set foot in it at will?
If the matter of accepting disciples had not just ended and had not completely subsided, Zhang Lian would have been suppressed and killed on the spot the moment he stepped in.
"Great Lord, disciple Zhang Lian, sincerely wants to become a disciple of Holy Monarch. Please, Great Lord, do me a favor. As time goes by, Holy Monarch will surely be moved by disciple's sincerity..."
Zhang Lian gritted his teeth and said respectfully.
However, he hadn't finished speaking.
A huge force heavily struck his abdomen, the powerful force caused him to spin hundreds of millions of times in the void, and finally turned into blood mist, his true spirit was annihilated, and he completely disappeared into the chaotic world.
"Don't you dare take a piss and look at yourself, what kind of existence is a Dao Harmonization Holy Monarch? Even a Chaos Grand Luo True Immortal may not be recognized by him to become his disciple. A little Supreme Being whose cultivation has been crippled, with low talent, even a Half-Immortal may not look at him, how dare he covet the Holy Monarch's disciple's holy seat?"
The Chaos Grand Luo True Immortal guard put away his palm and whispered coldly.
His eyes were full of disdain and ridicule.
This person simply ate the heart of a bear and the guts of a leopard, daring to come here to violate the Holy Monarch's rules.
As for his cultivation being crippled, he must have encountered some tragic change, but what does this have to do with him? Throughout the ages, in the Immortal Realm, the heavens of the lower realm, and the entire Chaos, there are countless trillions of creatures who have suffered tragic circumstances. He has never encountered such a person who doesn't know his own limitations.
Moreover, even if he sympathized with the other party, it was impossible for him to ignore it. His duty to follow Tianxuan Holy Monarch was to guard the dojo and not allow anyone to enter. If he violated this rule, he would inevitably be punished by the Holy Monarch. It was impossible for him to harm his own interests for the sake of others.
And this scene.
Made the many creatures remaining near the dojo who were trying to move the Holy Will with sincerity shudder, and they retreated from the dojo one after another.
On the other side, during the dojo turmoil.
Lin Teng had already been escorted by many Chaos Grand Luo True Immortal guards to the Lin Immortal Clan.
"Brother Teng, news has come from Grandfather."
"If there are no surprises, your position as the young clan leader should have already been decided."
Lin Teng's wife, Li Ying, said.
Heaven knows how happy she was when she received this news.
In the previous situation, she thought that her and Lin Teng's safety would be difficult to guarantee, but she never thought that she would leap to become the ultimate winner.
"Moreover, my mother's family has also conveyed their apologies to me, hoping that one day I can grace them with my presence back to the Li family, and they also said that if Brother Teng goes with me, the entire Li family up and down will come out to welcome you, waiting for Brother Teng's arrival..." Li Ying said with a smile on her face.
Previously, the Li family learned that Lin Teng had failed and abandoned her, instead letting her younger sister marry another young master, which made her feel sullen.
I didn't expect that she would be able to hold her head high so quickly.
This made Li Ying extremely comfortable in her heart.
"Ying'er can decide the affairs of the Li family herself."
"Although the position of young clan leader has been decided internally, there are still things that need to be done, and time cannot be wasted on the Li family."
Lin Teng said lightly.
The Lin Immortal Clan is a Dao Harmonization Immortal Clan, and there are not a few hundred subsidiary forces like the Li family, but also dozens. If it weren't for Li Ying's identity, he would not have noticed the other party at all. The previous abandonment made Lin Teng not take it to heart.
"Yes, Brother Teng, Ying'er understands."
Hearing Lin Teng's words, how could Li Ying not hear the implication, and nodded heavily.
"Grandfather."
Just as Lin Teng and Li Ying were talking, Lin Su's figure walked over, and Lin Teng quickly saluted.
"The high-level members have all gathered in the council hall, waiting for you to come over." Lin Su patted Lin Teng on the shoulder, his tone gentle.
He never expected that Lin Teng could become a disciple of a Dao Harmonization Holy Monarch.
This allowed him to raise his head among the many elders of the Lin Immortal Clan, infinitely glorious.
"Yes, Grandfather, I will go over now."
Although Lin Teng had become a disciple of Tianxuan Holy Monarch, he was not arrogant or conceited. He knew that everything he had now was due to Grandfather, and he was still very respectful.
After saying goodbye to Li Ying, Lin Teng followed Lin Su straight towards the council hall.
Without delaying too long.
Soon, Lin Teng entered the council hall.
The matter discussed with the high-level members was about the inheritance of the young clan leader.
At the same time.
On the other side.
Lin Teng's residence.
A servant carefully came to the outside of a room.
"Madam, the Li family has sent another message, asking if you have time in a month, they have obtained a Chaos Immortal Treasure, and no one can manage it, they want to invite you to go and see if it meets Madam's preferences, and if it does, please Madam bring it back..."
"You should tell them that I will talk about it when I have time."

Chapter 609: The Remorseful and Regretful Li Family, Lin Teng Ascends to the Position of Young Clan Leader
............
Before the servant could finish speaking, a clear and cold voice came from the room, interrupting his words.
"Yes, Madam."
"This servant will inform the Li family."
Hearing this, the servant bowed slightly and respectfully took his leave.
Inside the room, Li Ying listened to the servant's departing footsteps, her eyes gradually turned cold, facing away from the door.
"Old Ancestor, don't blame Ying'er for not thinking of kinship, it's really that in a world where interests come first, what is needed is sending charcoal in the snow, not icing on the cake."
Li Ying murmured to herself.
Her expression was calm.
If the Li family could have followed Lin Teng unswervingly in the last change, then Lin Teng's soaring success this time would surely have taken care of the kindness and promoted the Li family, plus her mother's family's identity, the Li family would surely become Lin Teng's confidant.
In other words, they would be the confidant of the next Lin Immortal Clan leader, what kind of opportunity is this?
However, the Li family did not do this, but quickly abandoned Lin Teng and turned to invest in another young master, which made Li Ying feel a chill in her heart.
Of course, she didn't blame the Li family.
She knew that the Li family's choice was right, and if it were her, she would also make the choice that was most beneficial to herself.
But it was precisely this point that made her and Lin Teng disappointed in the Li family.
After all, what the world lacks is never the flattery after soaring success, but the unwavering loyalty in times of adversity.
The Li family was choosing a master for the sake of profit, and they would naturally choose the party that was most beneficial to themselves for the sake of profit.
And now, Lin Teng is about to become the young clan leader of the Lin Immortal Clan.
In time, the entire Lin Immortal Clan will be in Lin Teng's hands.
The Li family is just one of the many forces attached to the Lin Immortal Clan, and is obviously not within the scope of their key considerations.
......
At the same time.
The Li family's territory.
After receiving the news that Lin Teng had been accepted as a disciple by the Dao Harmonization Holy Monarch.
The Li family keenly realized that Lin Teng's status would surely soar in the Lin Immortal Clan, and it was very likely that because of this, he would directly skip the game with other young masters and ascend to the position of young clan leader.
And as they expected.
Soon, news came from within the Lin Immortal Clan that they wanted to support Lin Teng.
This made them extremely shocked.
Originally, this news was actually a huge good thing for them. After all, the offspring of their Li family was Lin Teng's partner, and they had a closer relationship with Lin Teng, the disciple of the Dao Harmonization Holy Monarch, than other affiliated forces.
If used properly, the Li family is very likely to become the strongest family under the Lin Immortal Clan.
However, what made them regret with a hammer was.
In the last incident in which Lin Teng was detained by the forces of the heavens in the lower realm, they determined that Lin Teng had lost the value of following, so they turned to other young masters, and lost this opportunity to soar in vain.
