After Lin Feng finished speaking, he looked at his Junior Sister, who was deep in thought and did not urge her.
The atmosphere in the Treasury was silent for a long time before Zhang Wanqing finally responded to her Senior Brother's words.
"Then bring a few talented disciples who are strong down the mountain."
"First of all, they are here to see the world. In addition, they should go down the mountain to train and hone their strength. After all, Sword Cultivators have to grow in all kinds of crises."
As Zhang Wanqing said this, she was thinking about the candidates she would bring down the mountain this time.
"Let's do as Junior Sister said. You decide the candidates. I don't have any objections."
Lin Feng did not care about this. He just wanted to go down the mountain to see the outside world.
After the two finished discussing, they left the Treasury.
On the way to the Main Hall, Zhang Wanqing sent out a messenger pigeon and summoned all the inner and outer disciples.
"Next, I will choose five disciples who have comprehended the Sword Intent to follow me, and your Senior Sister, the Chief Lawyer, to go down the mountain for training."
All the disciples had arrived. Lin Feng stood at the Head of The Main Hall and went straight to the point. As soon as he finished speaking, the disciples below went into a commotion.
Everyone was very clear about the strength of their Sect Master. In the past, he would not go down the mountain easily, but this time, he actually wanted to go with them for training?
All the disciples instantly felt that this matter was somewhat unusual.
"Ahem..."
Seeing the disciples below buzzing with discussion, Zhang Wanqing coughed heavily.
All the disciples were instantly silenced. At this moment, Lin Feng could clearly feel the extraordinary status and dignity of his Junior Sister in the sect.
After everyone quieted down, according to what she and Lin Feng had agreed, she would choose the disciples.
"Inner sect: Nan Mending, Jing Wenwen, Ming Yuxuan, Kong Lianghan, outer sect, Dongfang Yuanzhong. These five disciples are the ones who are going down the mountain to train."
Therefore, the five disciples who had comprehended the Sword Intent were called out by name. Except for the young outer sect disciple whose face was full of disbelief, the other four inner sect disciples were all excited.
"Alright, the other disciples will stay behind to guard the sect this time. We will be going for a long while. Everyone, don't slack off in your cultivation."
After the Junior Sister had selected everyone, Lin Feng gave some encouragement to the disciples who had not been selected. He left the five disciples who had been selected behind, and the rest of the disciples left on their own.
Seeing the excited expressions of the five disciples, Lin Feng expressed his understanding. After giving a few pointers, he did not say anything more.
The four inner disciples who had been selected were all at the Beginning Stage of the Condensing Reality Realm. The little outer disciple, Dongfang Yuanzhong, had only been cultivating for a short period of time, so he was only at the Advanced Stage of the Qi Gathering Realm.
However, Lin Feng had heard from his Junior Sister that Dongfang Yuanzhong's talent in swordsmanship was excellent.
When he was gifted by fate, he was the only one who had an epiphany. When he woke up, he had already reached the Completion Stage of the Sword Intent. Moreover, before this he was just a Qi Cultivator.
Such talent in swordsmanship was not much different from Zhang Wanqing. Naturally, Lin Feng was overjoyed. This child's future achievements in swordsmanship would definitely not be low.
After everything was prepared, Lin Feng and his group left the sect and headed to Longyan County.
This was because they had two goals for this trip down the mountain. One was to find the remaining four materials needed for the Second Stage of forging the Jade Heavenly Long Sword. The other was to train the disciples.
Therefore, Lin Feng did not choose to use his spiritual powers or spells to travel on the road. Instead, he asked everyone to slowly walk on the mountain like mortals.
Whenever they encountered any danger on the road, he would ask his disciples to go up and try to solve it. With him and his Junior Sister present, everyone could practice their skills freely.
This journey was also an experience for Lin Feng. As he had just arrived in this world, he had not experienced everything that his predecessor knew personally, so he did not feel much about it.
After comparing the information in his mind with reality on the road, he found that his sense of belonging to this world had become stronger.
At the same time, he felt the urgency and pressure of the crisis that the Green Sky Sect faced.
Longyan County was a large county in the Great Spring Empire, and there were many big and small sects.
As for the Green Sky Sect, it used to be the top sect in a county. It was unknown when it began to decline. Since Lin Feng, the previous eight generations of Sect Masters, all wanted to turn the tide and try to stop the decline of the Green Sky Sect.
However, all their efforts were in vain. Instead, they became more and more down-and-out.
The former head of the county controlled many cultivation resources and talented disciples. After they gradually declined, there were naturally a lot of people who took advantage of the situation to rob them of their resources.
Surrounded by a pack of wolves, the decline of the Green Sky Sect could not be stopped. It could be seen from the number and quality of the disciples they recruited.
When the disciples of a sect could no longer meet the needs of the sect's development, the decline of the Green Sky Sect had become a foregone conclusion.
The original power of the Green Sky Sect was gradually divided by the sects who came to take advantage of them. As a result, the Green Sky Sect had no choice but to constantly shrink the scope of its core power in order to keep the fire seed.
As the Ninth Sect Master of the Green Sky Sect after the decline, Lin Feng was not only the weakest among all the Sect Masters in Longyan County, but also the weakest sect among all the sects in Longyan County.
Thinking of this, Lin Feng felt sad. After several generations of hard work, the Green Sky Sect could not return to its peak again, and it could not even get better.
He had never seen the glory of the Green Sky Sect before, but with the help of the wonder system, Lin Feng was very confident that he could build the Green Sky Sect into a Supreme Immortal Dynasty in the future.
After a long journey, Lin Feng arrived in Longyan County with his Junior Sister and five disciples.
Although the geographical environment of the East Barren Region was relatively cold and harsh, the Great Spring Empire was located on fertile land in the central region, so the days in Longyan County were pretty good.
Lin Feng and his group arrived in the outer city of Longyan County. It was noon, and people were walking to and fro the city gate. It was a lively scene with busy traffic.
Looking at the city wall made of Azure Sky Stones, which was mottled with the traces of time, Lin Feng felt that it was very familiar. It was as if he had traveled back to Yan'an City in his previous life.
The Daoist robe of the Green Sky Sect had a green colored base. It was embroidered with different cloud patterns with different types of embroidery silk to differentiate the ranks of the disciples.
As the leader of a sect, the Daoist robe on Lin Feng was embroidered with sword patterns on golden dragon silk. With his handsome face, he looked like an elegant Young Master.
However, the people passing by avoided them. They did not even dare to look at Lin Feng and the others for too long.
It was Lin Feng's first time going down the mountain. He was puzzled by the reactions of these ordinary people.
"Senior Brother, these people are afraid of the sword aura on your body..."
Zhang Wanqing, who had been following her Senior Brother the whole time, immediately noticed his puzzlement and tried to explain it to him.
"Whew... that scared me to death. I almost thought that the reputation of our Green Sky Sect in the outside world was that bad."
After hearing his Junior Sister's explanation, Lin Feng heaved a sigh of relief in his heart.
If they were only afraid of the sword aura, then they should try their best to restrain it.
"After entering the city, all of you should restrain your sword aura and try not to cause any trouble to the ordinary people."
"Yes, Sect Master!"
After Lin Feng gave the order, the five disciples agreed to it. Usually, when cultivators like them went down the mountain, they seldom paid attention to the ordinary people's feelings. However, since the Sect Master had requested it, they had to do it.
After giving a simple explanation, the group of people prepared to enter the city.
Originally, Lin Feng wanted to line up to enter the city. However, the soldiers guarding the city hurriedly went forward and invited them to one side.
They also told them that Cultivators did not need to line up with ordinary people to enter the city. They had a special passage for Cultivators.
At this time, Lin Feng finally felt the privilege brought by strength.
