Lin Ye's Determination181Please respect copyright.PENANAWdmlxmvKS3
Lin Ye's gaze was firm. He knew that to uncover the secrets of the Tian Yuan Sect, he needed to enter the Inner Sect as soon as possible, to get closer to those in power and those who held the true secrets. However, entering the Inner Sect was no easy feat. Only through a highly competitive selection process could one qualify to join. To gain this opportunity, Lin Ye began his more rigorous cultivation and preparations.
1. Seizing the Opportunity
After several months of cultivation in the Outer Sect, Lin Ye's strength had increased significantly, but he knew that it was not enough to stand out in the Inner Sect selection. The disciples of the Inner Sect were all exceptionally talented and powerful individuals. He needed greater strength and more refined combat skills.
Rather than engaging in direct combat with other disciples, Lin Ye decided to use this time to focus on honing his abilities. He began to deeply study the Tian Yuan Sect's cultivation techniques, combining them with the powers of the demon clan, seeking to create a new cultivation method. This approach not only allowed him to improve quickly, but also enabled him to maximize his potential without exposing his demon clan identity.
During this period, Lin Ye's breakthroughs were rapid. His cultivation rose from the peak of the Body Refining Realm to the early stage of the Qi Transformation Realm. While this may have seemed insignificant to outsiders, it was a qualitative leap for him. He could sense the perfect fusion of his demon energy with the Tian Yuan Sect’s techniques, greatly enhancing his combat abilities.
At the same time, Lin Ye used the connections he had made in the Outer Sect to gather a wealth of information about the Inner Sect selection. He learned that the selection was not merely a contest of cultivation level, but also a comprehensive evaluation of a disciple's talent, temperament, and combat intelligence. Therefore, he not only had to improve his cultivation but also adjust his mindset to ensure he could perform at his best during the selection.
2. The Inner Sect Selection
Finally, the day of the Inner Sect selection arrived. The venue was located in the heart of the Tian Yuan Sect, in a vast plaza surrounded by towering palaces, with an atmosphere that was both solemn and serious. Disciples from all over the Outer Sect gathered there, each wearing a tense expression, preparing for this life-and-death test.
Lin Ye stood among the crowd, calmly surveying his surroundings. His heart remained steady; this was only a small step in his plan for revenge. He knew that this selection would determine whether he could enter the Inner Sect and gain access to the sect’s deepest secrets.
The first part of the selection was a cultivation test. Unlike the Outer Sect's tests, the standards here were much more stringent. All participants were required to display their strongest cultivation level. Lin Ye carefully controlled his demon power to ensure that he could show his full strength without drawing unwanted attention.
When he stepped onto the testing platform, the intense spiritual energy surged in the air, and all eyes were on him. Lin Ye closed his eyes, focused his mind, and summoned his internal energy. As he moved, the surrounding spiritual energy gradually condensed, and the light from the spirit stones rose with his cultivation level. Eventually, the spirit stones emitted a dazzling glow, casting bright light in all directions.
Lin Ye passed this test. Although his cultivation level wasn't the highest, he had conquered the platform with steady and pure strength, showcasing his unparalleled talent in cultivation.
Next came the combat segment. His opponent in this round was a disciple at the mid-stage of the Qi Transformation Realm. The disciple looked young and handsome, with a smile on his face, but his eyes were sharp and filled with murderous intent, clearly intending to make the match difficult for Lin Ye.
The battle began, and Lin Ye immediately felt the intense pressure from his opponent. Every strike from his opponent was powerful and fast, clearly the result of careful training. But Lin Ye wasn't intimidated. He knew that only through this battle could he truly showcase his advantages.
He quickly circulated his demon power and combined it with the Tian Yuan Sect's techniques, launching a clever counterattack. Although his opponent's attacks were fierce, they were somewhat direct and predictable in the face of Lin Ye’s responses. Lin Ye skillfully dodged each attack, and every counterstrike hit with pinpoint precision, exposing his opponent's flaws.
With a loud thud, Lin Ye’s punch landed on his opponent's chest, sending him flying several meters. The opponent crashed to the ground, eyes filled with shock. In that moment, Lin Ye fully displayed his strength, drawing the attention of the surrounding disciples.
The final test was a temperament evaluation. In this test, Lin Ye entered a virtual illusion and faced his deepest fears and desires. The illusion shifted constantly, showing him a world being consumed, a blood-soaked battlefield, and all that he had lost in the past.
However, Lin Ye remained unshaken. He closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and quickly regained his inner peace. His plan for revenge had given him the strength of conviction, and facing these illusory temptations, his heart was as hard as iron, unyielding.
In the end, Lin Ye successfully passed the temperament test and became one of the top performers in the Inner Sect selection.
3. Revealing His Strength
After the selection, Lin Ye was assigned to the Inner Sect of the Tian Yuan Sect. He had finally taken the first step into the core of this mysterious sect. The disciples in the Inner Sect were worlds apart from those in the Outer Sect. Not only were their cultivation levels far higher, but they also wielded more resources and power. Lin Ye knew that this was the key to uncovering the truth behind the Tian Yuan Sect.
However, entering the Inner Sect didn’t mean that Lin Ye’s challenges were over. In fact, the dangers here far exceeded his expectations. On the surface, the Inner Sect disciples appeared harmonious, but beneath the surface, power struggles were fierce, even more so than in the Outer Sect. Lin Ye knew that he not only had to survive but also had to be extremely cautious in dealing with the various threats that might arise.
In the days that followed, Lin Ye quickly realized how complex the Inner Sect truly was. Although he had excelled in the selection, that didn't guarantee that he would easily establish himself here. Every Inner Sect disciple was supported by powerful factions, whereas Lin Ye lacked such a background.
Nevertheless, Lin Ye did not intend to submit to this situation. He would continue his cultivation, striving to find the opportunity to exact his revenge in this environment filled with intrigue and challenge.
4. Conclusion
Lin Ye’s success in entering the Inner Sect seemed to signal the smooth progression of his revenge plan. However, life in the Inner Sect was far from simple. The hidden competition and potential dangers required him to remain vigilant at all times. In this seemingly bright and prosperous world, Lin Ye was ready to face even greater challenges.
