A Useless Person Awakens to the Eternal Spirit Emperor Technique

The alarm bells rang continuously, shaking the thirty-six peaks of Qingya Mountain.

The disciples looked up in horror. This alarm bell had not rung for years; its reappearance must signify a momentous event.

Looking at the composed Ling Chen, Song Hai felt a surge of turmoil in his heart.

In a short while, a lowly servant with a useless spiritual root actually rushed to the fifth level of Qi Refining, and even triggered strange phenomena in the heavens and earth.

"Ling Chen, come with me to the council hall, where the sect leader will make the decision." His tone was no longer contemptuous.

Ling Chen nodded and followed the others.

The disciples along the way were all astonished. The good-for-nothing servant who had been ridiculed for three years was now being escorted by the elders.

He felt calm.

Three years of humiliation and arduous training day and night, all for the sake of turning the tables and avenging his parents.

Inside the council hall, the sect leader and elders had already gathered.

Song Hai stepped forward and explained everything: "This boy, Ling Chen, was originally a menial servant with a useless spiritual root, but now he has awakened it and reached the fifth level of Qi Refining!"

The hall erupted in chaos instantly.

"Impossible! How could someone with a useless spiritual root possibly cultivate immortality!"

"It must be sorcery!"

At this moment, the three disciples who had previously bullied Ling Chen suddenly knelt down, weeping bitterly:

"Sect Leader, please investigate! He stole the treasure and tried to kill us!"

Elder Xie Xuan, with his dark face, flew into a rage: "You audacious servant, strip him of his cultivation and banish him to the Disciplinary Hall!"

The aura of Foundation Establishment cultivators suddenly pressed down.

Ling Chen raised his eyes, his gaze icy.

The fifth level of Qi Refining suddenly erupted, forcefully withstanding the pressure:

"You insulted my parents and pushed me into the pool, and now you're turning around and blaming me?"

With a flick of his palm, the ancient jade floated to the surface, and an aura of ancient royalty permeated the entire hall.

Song Hai immediately activated the water mirror array in the hall.

The scene of the three people mocking, shoving, and coldly watching by the cold pool was clearly displayed before everyone's eyes.

The truth came out.

The sect leader's face darkened:

"Xie Xuan, for failing to discipline his children properly, shall be fined a hundred years' salary and confined for three months!"

These three are stripped of their cultivation, expelled from the sect, and never to be employed again!

The screams and pleas for mercy quickly disappeared.

The sect leader looked at Ling Chen, his eyes showing approval:

"Ling Chen, effective immediately, is relieved of his menial duties, promoted to the inner sect without regard to seniority, and awarded a spirit residence, one hundred acres of spirit fields, and the full resources of the inner sect!"

The entire audience was once again in an uproar.

A servant promoted directly to the inner sect—a first in Qingya Mountain's thousand-year history.

Ling Chen bowed: "Thank you, Sect Leader."

What he wanted was not a reward, but power, to find out the truth about the bloodshed of that year and make the murderers pay for their crimes.

The sect leader slowly spoke:

"The inner sect assessment is in one month. The top ten will be able to enter the sect's secret realm. Prepare well."

A sharp glint flashed in Ling Chen's eyes: "Disciple obeys."

After three years of dormancy, it has now transformed into a dragon.

His journey has only just begun.
