The end of Gaowu: Becoming stronger from not practicing

Xuan Xiaohong is the president of the Soul Master Guild of Zixiao City.

He is also a level 4 Soul Master, and his Soul Essence has exceeded 1000.0. Although it is still difficult for him to exceed 1200.0 and become a level 5 Soul Master.

But Xuan Xiaohong is undoubtedly the most powerful Soul Master in Zixiao City.

A Level 4 Soul Master who had not been recorded by the guild suddenly appeared in Zixiao City, and Xuan Xiaohong had to come and see for herself.

Now, everyone in the Soul Essence Master Guild has discovered that Zhang Lingfeng is involved in the family struggle.

According to the rules and regulations of the Soul Essence Master Guild, Soul Essence Masters should avoid participating in major conflicts and avoid affecting the Soul Essence Master Guild.

Since the last time a level 7 Soul Master appeared in the Soul Master Guild, causing a problem with the balance of power in the Upper World.

The world above then established a series of rules regarding Soul Masters.

The more powerful a Soul Master is, the less they should participate in the struggle, and the less they should get involved with any faction.

Even if Zhang Lingfeng is not a member of the Soul Essence Master Guild, the Soul Essence Master Guild should still intervene in such matters, otherwise it will bring a series of troubles to the Soul Essence Master Guild.

The fact that all the Immortal Emperors and Immortal Venerables joined forces to suppress the Soul Essence Master Guild was a terrifying thing. None of the participants in the various Soul Essence Master Guilds wanted to experience that dark era again.

Therefore, Xuan Xiaohong and the other two's actions were both to check Zhang Lingfeng's soul power and to give Zhang Lingfeng a warning.

For the first time, Zhang Lingfeng sensed a more powerful fluctuation of soul energy emanating from the others, suppressing him.

Fortunately, he possessed the power of the Soul Essence Dao.

Its own soul power forms a barrier, or even a small world, which is more domineering than the purple light talisman, leaving Xuan Xiaohong and the other two helpless.

Of course, Xuan Xiaohong and the other two did not want to fight Zhang Lingfeng head-on.

The main force behind the annexation of the Li family by the Wang family was the Shadow Alliance. Although Zhang Lingfeng was involved, he did not directly participate in the conflict.

If Zhang Lingfeng had assisted Tie Mingxiong in dealing with the Li family patriarch that day, the situation would have been different; perhaps Xuan Xiaohong would have intervened as well.

Many of the Li family's Soul Masters were at the Soul Master Guild that day, pleading with Xuan Xiaohong to protect the Li family.

But Xuan Xiaohong did not do that.

"What do you three mean by this?"

Zhang Lingfeng inquired.

Although they didn't suffer any loss, it was somewhat impolite of the three of them to lock onto him with their soul power as soon as they entered the Wang family's territory and noticed his aura.

It's like they're here to cause trouble.

"My name is Xuan Xiaohong, the president of the Soul Master Guild of Zixiao City. I came here specifically to pay a visit after learning that a fourth-level Soul Master has appeared in the Wang family. May I ask when you will be in Zixiao City?"

Xuan Xiaohong inquired.

"I am not a member of the Soul Essence Master Guild, so I should not need to report to you."

Zhang Lingfeng said.

Xuan Xiaohong wasn't angry. Everyone here was a Soul Master, and a Level 4 Soul Master at that. It was perfectly normal for them to have a temper.

"Does Your Excellency not know that there are regulations in the Upper World that all Soul Masters with strength exceeding level three must join the Soul Master Guild?"

Xuan Xiaohong said.

"We are all Soul Masters, why should we be controlled by others?"

Zhang Lingfeng said calmly.

He knew that the Soul Master Guild's interest had changed ever since that powerful seventh-level Soul Master was eliminated by a group of Immortal Emperors.

What was once a forum for Soul Essence Masters to exchange ideas has become a place where powerful Immortal Emperors monitor the every move of all Soul Essence Masters.

The stronger one's soul essence, the more attention and restrictions one receives.

The Upper World does not allow the reappearance of a Level 7 Soul Master. This is a rule jointly established by the leaders of various Immortal Emperors and other forces.

Because a level seven Soul Master is too terrifying.

Legend has it that it can break the balance of immortal emperors' immortal essence, disintegrate the power of immortal emperors' Dao techniques, and even trace back to the laws of heaven, directly killing into the past or future through the law of cause and effect.

They killed a Celestial Emperor using extremely terrifying methods.

Back then, it took dozens of Immortal Emperors working together to suppress a Level 7 Soul Master.

To this day, the soul of that mysterious and powerful Soul Master remains suppressed in the underground palace, trapped by the Black Dragon bloodline, and subjected to backlash through the causal law between master and servant.

even so.

Long years have passed, but his spirit has not completely dissipated.

This shows how powerful a level 7 Soul Master is.

Therefore, Soul Masters whose whereabouts are not under control are not allowed here, especially those with strength exceeding level three. Once they become level four Soul Masters, they have the potential to become level seven Soul Masters.

Although the hope was extremely slim, none of the powerful Immortal Emperors would allow what happened back then to repeat itself.

People like Zhang Lingfeng, who became a Level 4 Soul Master but did not join the Soul Master Guild and whose identity information was registered by the Soul Master Guild, are extremely rare.

Xuan Xiaohong was taken aback.

All three understood the meaning behind Zhang Lingfeng's words.

The Soul Essence Master Guild is a gathering place for Soul Essence Masters, but the people who truly control the Soul Essence Master Guild are a group of Immortal Emperor level experts, which is a very frustrating thing for many Soul Essence Masters.

Therefore, not all Soul Masters are willing to join the Soul Master Guild and become a member of the guild.

"Your Soul Essence has exceeded 700.0, making you a genuine Level 4 Soul Essence Master. I have come here to invite you to join the Soul Essence Master Guild."

At the same time, avoid getting involved in power struggles and avoid causing trouble for the Soul Essence Master Guild.

This is a very difficult time for our group, I hope you understand.

Xuan Xiaohong advised.

She came here mainly to prevent Zhang Lingfeng from causing trouble for the Soul Essence Master Guild, rather than to have a conflict with Zhang Lingfeng.

Even if their soul essence surpasses Zhang Lingfeng's, there will still be casualties on both sides if they really fight.

What are the benefits of joining the Soul Essence Master Guild?

Zhang Lingfeng inquired.

"By becoming a member of the Soul Essence Master Guild, you can find many fellow practitioners and exchange ideas on any issues you don't understand in your cultivation."

At the same time, you can also accept valuable missions to earn spirit stones and obtain cultivation resources, which will be easier.

This also helps avoid getting caught up in family power struggles, preventing trouble for oneself and the guild—there are many benefits.

Xuan Xiaohong said.

"Will I be able to get asylum?"

Zhang Lingfeng asked.

"Of course, any Soul Master who joins the Soul Master Guild will have a significant status in the Upper World. Any family or force that dares to threaten their life will be attacked and retaliated against by the Guild."

However, while enjoying the benefits of the guild, one must also protect the guild's rights and avoid causing trouble for the guild.

In short, the guild will not look down on or neglect any Soul Master, and every Soul Master should prioritize the interests of the guild and refrain from doing anything that harms the guild.

I don't know what conflict you have with the Li family.

But the Li family no longer exists.

However, Li Tianshan, being a Nine Heavens Mystic Immortal, will definitely take revenge on the Wang family in the future, along with you and the members of the Shadow Alliance, if you become a member of the Soul Essence Master Guild.

Although it may not necessarily make Li Tianshan choose to give up revenge.

But it also makes him somewhat wary.

At the same time, if the guild discovers his whereabouts, they will immediately notify you and even proactively protect your personal safety.

Xuan Xiaohong said.

She could tell that Zhang Lingfeng was somewhat tempted.

Zhang Lingfeng hesitated; in his heart, he was against it.

Joining the Soul Master Guild means that your identity will be completely exposed.

He could keep it from the Wang family and the Shadow Alliance, but he couldn't hide it from all the Soul Masters of the Soul Master Guild. Even Xuan Xiaohong could sense that his outward aura and appearance were fake.

But given the current situation...

It seems difficult to extricate himself without joining the Soul Essence Master Guild. At the very least, the Soul Essence Master Guild won't leave him as a potential threat.

"You don't need to worry too much. Joining the Soul Essence Master Guild will not only give you an extra layer of protection, but also put the guild at ease."

Becoming a member of the Soul Essence Master Guild will not reveal your true identity or other information.

The identity information of any Soul Master who joins the Soul Master Guild is protected in various ways.

The reason I found you is because, according to the guild's internal information, I couldn't find any identification information about you, confirming that you haven't joined the Soul Essence Master Guild.

Even if you leave Zixiao City now.

Guild leaders from other places will also contact you.

Until you become a member of the guild, or you simply disappear.

Xuan Xiaohong noticed Zhang Lingfeng's concerns and patiently explained.

Zhang Lingfeng's eyes lit up.

But thinking about the treatment of that seventh-level Soul Master, Zhang Lingfeng knew that the so-called identity protection was just to prevent people of ordinary status from knowing his specific identity and past.

Those Immortal Emperors, or even those who have reached the level of Immortal Venerables, should have the authority to access his information.

"Then may I ask, in the Soul Essence Master Guild, isn't the person in charge a Soul Essence Master?"

Zhang Lingfeng asked.

"Of course, although there are many problems, no world can eliminate Soul Masters in any way."

Similarly, every world needs Soul Masters.

A world without Soul Masters is not a complete world.

Xuan Xiaohong said proudly.

Zhang Lingfeng nodded. He could roughly understand that Soul Masters had absolute say in the guild, but the Soul Master guild did not allow any Level 7 Soul Masters to appear.

Soul Masters whose strength surpasses level three are required to regularly report their whereabouts to the Soul Master Guild and even undergo Soul Power testing.

Only powerful Immortal Emperors can see this data.

Zhang Lingfeng doesn't need to worry for the time being that the Shadow Alliance members, such as Tie Mingxiong, will discover his true identity and learn that he is Zhang Lingfeng.

However, those terrifying Immortal Emperors would probably know his exact information the moment he joined the Soul Essence Master Guild.

I wonder if becoming a Level 4 Soul Master in such a short time will attract their special attention.

The thought of being targeted by a group of powerful Immortal Emperors made Zhang Lingfeng feel that it was even more dangerous and unpleasant than being targeted by Li Tianshan, the patriarch of the Li family.

But now that things had come to this, Zhang Lingfeng could no longer refuse.

Because of refusing Xuan Xiaohong, a conflict with the Soul Origin Master may be unavoidable.

"Okay, I'll join."

Zhang Lingfeng nodded.

"please!"

Xuan Xiaohong breathed a sigh of relief.

By joining the Soul Master Guild, Zhang Lingfeng can avoid causing trouble for the Soul Masters of Zixiao City. If the higher-ups come down to investigate, she won't have to bear any responsibility.

If Zhang Lingfeng were to provoke a terrifying being and cause trouble for the Soul Essence Master Guild, the higher-ups would arrange for someone to punish Zhang Lingfeng, and then she wouldn't need to engage in a direct fight with him.

Zhang Lingfeng and Xuan Xiaohong then arrived at the Soul Essence Master Guild.

"Lord of the City, the mysterious Soul Master from the Wang family has arrived at the Soul Master Guild with Guild Master Xuan."

A Grand Immortal from the City Lord's Mansion reported this.

A level four Soul Master who is also a Great Luo Golden Immortal would pose a great threat to Zixiao City.

The people from the city lord's mansion kept a close eye on Zhang Lingfeng's every move.

It could even be said that Xuan Xiaohong's meeting with Zhang Lingfeng today was related to the City Lord's Mansion.

"it is good."

Chen Xuanxian nodded.

He was checking Zhang Lingfeng's information.

All he can confirm now is Zhang Lingfeng's outward identity.

Jiang Feng.

A recent ascendant.

She was pulled into the Wang family by Wang Lin.

Based on the publicly available identity information, Jiang Feng seems to be the same person as Zhang Lingfeng.

However, according to the intelligence obtained from the Shadow Alliance, Zhang Lingfeng ascended to the Upper World in less than fifty years. How could he possibly have become a Level 4 Soul Master and a Great Luo Golden Immortal?

Therefore, the claim that Jiang Feng is Zhang Lingfeng is unfounded.

Zhang Lingfeng should be protected by Jiang Feng.

Zhang Lingfeng was right there in the Wang family's house, and even the Wang family didn't know where he was.

In short, the Jiang Feng in front of us may have another real identity, but he is definitely not Zhang Lingfeng.

Chen Xuanxian did not dwell on this matter.

He also knew that the Shadow Alliance was searching for Zhang Lingfeng, a descendant who had ascended to immortality, and that Zhang Lingfeng was said to possess a great opportunity.

Now it seems there was indeed a great opportunity; otherwise, how could he have received Jiang Feng's protection?

Perhaps when Jiang Feng ascended, he used his soul essence techniques to protect Zhang Lingfeng, making people notice him and ignore Zhang Lingfeng's existence.

But what kind of opportunity did Zhang Lingfeng have?

Chen Xuanxian had no idea.

This information cannot be obtained from the Shadow Alliance.

However, he knew that the ascendants from the same world as Zhang Lingfeng might know Zhang Lingfeng's secret, so he was also searching for ascendants from the Blackwater Starfield.

Soul Essence Master Guild.

In the confined space, Zhang Lingfeng underwent a comprehensive test of his abilities.

The size of the soul essence is clearly visible.

Immortal Essence: 2438.3
Soul element: 758.8
Realm: Level 4 Soul Master, Great Luo Golden Immortal

Name: Zhang Lingfeng
Ascension Region: The Lower World, Blackwater Starfield
Ascension Date: September 8th, 2345 (Xuanhuang Calendar)

As the guild leader of the Soul Master Guild in Zixiao City, Xuan Xiaohong has the authority to see Zhang Lingfeng's relevant identity information and to record Zhang Lingfeng's specific identity information into the guild system.

Zhang Lingfeng's identity information was entered into the guild system.

The Soul Essence Master Guild was shaken.

"you……"

Xuan Xiaohong was dumbfounded.

This fourth-level Soul Master from the Wang family is actually a being from a lower world who ascended less than fifty years ago, and he is Zhang Lingfeng, the very person the Shadow Alliance is looking for.

Opportunity?

Could it be that Zhang Lingfeng truly possesses an extraordinary opportunity?
Otherwise, how did he acquire such a terrifying cultivation speed?

Xuan Xiaohong felt jealous and envious, as well as a bit panicked and uneasy. She had thought that by bringing Zhang Lingfeng into the Soul Essence Master Guild, she could avoid a lot of trouble.

Now we can see Zhang Lingfeng's specific identity information.

After the guild system detected her accurate strength and training time, Xuan Xiaohong suddenly felt that she had gotten herself into serious trouble.

I should never have let Zhang Lingfeng join the Soul Essence Master Guild.

I feel like I've done something I shouldn't have done.
