Huyan Ruize has been at the top of the inner sect rankings for thirty years, and no one has been able to knock him out of that position.
In fact, with Huyan Ruize's level of cultivation, he had already been able to break through to the Tiangang realm, but he suppressed it forcefully and continued to polish at the half-step Tiangang realm.
Huyan Ruize has been extremely stable in every realm, and his solid foundation is unparalleled among the inner sects. Huyan Ruize is not only number one in the inner sect, but even many of his true disciples are not his
opponent.
The true disciples of the Shangqing Sect are not as numerous as the outer and inner disciples. The outer and inner disciples each number in the tens of thousands, but the total number of true disciples is only a few hundred.
If you want to become a true disciple, you need to pass the true disciple test before you are one hundred years old. If you are over a hundred years old and still fail to pass the true disciple test, even if you break through the Tiangang realm in the future, you can only become an inner sect elder at most, but not a true disciple.
Although the status of the inner sect elders is similar to that of the true disciples, the true disciples have the opportunity to be accepted as disciples by the powerful ancestors on the main peak, while the inner sect elders cannot obtain such an honor.
In order to pass the True Inheritance Assessment, you generally need at least Tiangang Realm cultivation to have the possibility of passing. Of course, a half-step Tiangang Realm warrior like Huyan Ruize, who is extremely powerful in combat, will not have any problems passing the True Inheritance Assessment.
But Huyan Ruize is not in a hurry to become a true disciple. He is only in his fifties now, and is still far away from the cut-off age of one hundred years old.
If it were anyone else with his level of strength, he would have participated in the True Inheritance Assessment long ago and would never waste this opportunity.
After all, the treatment of true disciples is far incomparable to that of inner disciples.
Not to mention anything else, just the fact that a true disciple can own an independent mountain peak is very coveted.
The mountain peak where every true disciple lives is the Feng Shui treasure land of Shangqing Sect, and the spiritual energy on it is extremely rich. Practicing in the area of true disciples is not comparable to that of inner disciples.
Moreover, the monthly salary of the true disciples is much more generous. The average inner disciple only has twenty contribution points per month, and even the top ten inner disciples do not have more than one hundred contribution points per month.
But even the most ordinary true disciple has at least a thousand points per month.
Of course, every warrior who can become a true disciple will never be an ordinary person. Either his talent is far beyond ordinary people, or his mind is extremely tough.
After all, the Tiangang realm is not so easy to break through.
After tens of thousands of years of accumulation, the Shangqing Sect now has less than a thousand true disciples and inner sect elders combined.
Of course, this does not mean that the Shangqing Sect has only produced less than a thousand Tiangang Realm warriors in the past tens of thousands of years. Many Tiangang Realm warriors have died in the long river of time because their life span has been exhausted.
Although Tiangang Realm experts have thousands of years of longevity, they are not immortal. No matter how high their cultivation level is, they cannot withstand the erosion of the long river of time.
Only by breaking through to the legendary realm above the Tiangang realm can one's lifespan be greatly increased.
Huyan Ruize doesn't seem to care much about the treatment of his true disciples, because his growth along the way did not originally rely on the sect's cultivation resources.
In addition to the cultivation techniques, Huyan Ruize's other cultivation resources were all obtained through hard work with his own hands.
Huyan Ruize is away from home all year round and spends very little time in the sect.
So even though he has held the title of number one in the inner sect for many years, not many people really know him.
Of course, although the inner disciples don't know much about Huyan Ruize, they definitely have no doubts about his strength.
Because a true disciple once had a conflict with Huyan Ruize, and was forced to retreat by Huyan Ruize's sword. At that time, that incident shocked the entire Shangqing Sect.
Although each of the top ten disciples of the inner sect has the strength to fight across levels and will have no problem defeating the ordinary Tiangang realm, this does not mean that they can defeat the true disciples.
Because every warrior who can become a true disciple of the Shangqing Sect will not be an ordinary Tiangang realm, and their combat power is many times stronger than warriors of the same level.
Among the inner disciples of this generation, except for Huyan Ruize, no one is confident that they can defeat the true disciples unless they also break through to the Tiangang realm.
After Chu Jianqiu broke through to the fifth level of the Yuan Dan realm in the battle with Dong Guo Leng, he did not challenge the top ten disciples of the inner sect like Dong Guo Leng did, but instead stayed in seclusion to stabilize his realm.
His realm has broken through too quickly during this period, and there are already some signs of instability. He must settle for a period of time to completely stabilize his realm.
Moreover, he has not understood the talisman inheritance in the Chaos Supreme Tower for a long time, and it will take a period of time to make up for the shortcomings in this area.
The inheritance of the talisman formations in the Chaos Supreme Tower has always been Chu Jianqiu's biggest trump card. It is precisely with the help of these magical talisman formations that Chu Jianqiu can overcome difficulties time and time again and save danger time and time again.
Now as his realm continues to improve, the talisman formations he had comprehended before can no longer keep up with his strength.
Although the small moving Taoist talisman, the Nine Heavens God's Mask Talisman, the Lilong Fire Talisman, the Lilong Seven Evils Formation and the Fiery Flame Dragon Formation can still play a lot of roles, as the enemies encountered become more and more powerful, the facing
As the number of challenges increases, the effectiveness of these talismans also weakens.
Chu Jianqiu must develop a more powerful talisman array to better cope with the next challenge.
While Chu Jianqiu was practicing in seclusion, Du Hanyan, Lu Xiangdi and others were training crazily in the Babel Tower. After hard training and their extremely high talents, not long after, they also made breakthroughs one after another.
Reached the seventh level of Yuan Dan realm.
Although the combat prowess of Du Hanyan and others is far less perverted than that of Chu Jianqiu and Dong Guo Leng, they are also not comparable to those of ordinary warriors.
After breaking through the seventh level of the Yuan Dan realm, they also challenged the warriors on the inner sect list.
After a challenge, they all actually made it to the top five hundred on the inner sect list, and their strength was comparable to that of the ordinary Half-Step Tiangang Realm.
In the Inner Gate Arena, they also met old acquaintances, Fu Qihuo, Yin Gaojie, Hong Feiying, Xia Yishan and others.
These people's cultivation speed is actually not slower than them at all, and they have all broken through the seventh level of Yuan Dan Realm and entered the top 500 on the inner sect list.
Originally, Yin Gaojie joined the Huxiao Society and became Zhou Huxiao's younger brother because he was afraid of Chu Jianqiu.
Now that Yin Gaojie has broken through to the seventh level of the Yuan Dan Realm, Zhou Huxiao is no longer his opponent, and in turn has become Yin Gaojie's younger brother.
