Cultivation System: Stronger with Age Chapter 472 - 225 Spiritual Treasure Acquired, The Grand Ceremony of Accepting Disciples Officially Begins_2

Lin Xuankong heard this, and a hint of joy flashed in his eyes; his heart couldn’t help but be stirred.

While Lin Xuankong was secretly contemplating, Galin Bodhisattva clasped her hands and saluted him. Then, she ascended with Yikong, landing beside Earth Immortal Huang Liutao of the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect, before proceeding towards the Immortal Sect’s headquarters.

"Biological Father! Oh, Biological Father, why did you really reject that Spiritual Treasure? That’s an unparalleled Spiritual Treasure for crossing the Celestial Tribulation!" Li Xiaohu exclaimed, his face fraught with anxiety.

Lin Xuankong shook his head solemnly and said, "Not Biological Father. It’s Sworn Father!"

Li Xiaohu: ...

Han Lu, Li Er, and the others watched Galin Bodhisattva’s departing figure with regretful expressions. Unlike Li Xiaohu, although their relationship with Lin Xuankong was close, they hadn’t followed him from the very beginning. Naturally, they didn’t dare to act as unguardedly as Li Xiaohu did in Lin Xuankong’s presence. Nonetheless, their hearts, like Li Xiaohu’s, were filled with regret.

On the other hand, Yang Mountain and Elder Steward Hu Shuo from the Yin Talisman Sect exchanged a glance and nodded slightly. One of them was prudent in his actions, while the other had experienced many hardships; they quickly understood Lin Xuankong’s "helplessness." As the saying goes, "A man without guilt finds himself in trouble for possessing a rare treasure." The Buddhist Spiritual Treasure, the Glazed Purification Bottle, was undeniably precious. However, if Lin Xuankong had truly accepted it... no matter how valuable the treasure, it would be an empty joy if he didn’t have the life to enjoy it!

They could understand Lin Xuankong’s thoughts, but the countless cultivators gathered around were all utterly stunned!

Innumerable cultivators floating in mid-air stared dazedly at Lin Xuankong, then turned to look at the departing Galin Bodhisattva, feeling that the scenes they had witnessed today were simply too astonishing!

A Buddhist Spiritual Treasure, the Glazed Purification Bottle—and someone actually didn’t want it!

Moreover, it was personally offered by Galin Bodhisattva from the Spirit Platform Buddhism, only to be rejected by this cultivator on the spot!

"Heavens, that’s a Spiritual Treasure that could help a cultivator easily pass the Celestial Tribulation, and he just rejected it like that? Really, just rejected it like that!? What on earth was he thinking?" someone exclaimed, staring at Lin Xuankong in disbelief, feeling that this cultivator before them was the biggest fool in the world.

"Exactly! If Galin Bodhisattva were to gift me such a Buddhist Spiritual Treasure, I’d probably go mad with joy! Such a Spiritual Treasure—even if you gathered all the Grade-Entering Profound Truth Jade from every single person in Spiritual Crane Immortal City, you still couldn’t afford it! How could he give up such an opportunity? He’s insane!"

Some sighed endlessly, feeling that Lin Xuankong had indeed forsaken the greatest opportunity of his life.

Of course, other cultivators suddenly had a thought, shook their heads repeatedly, and then whispered, "Seeing how Galin Bodhisattva of the Spirit Platform Buddhism treated this cultivator, their relationship must be quite good! He rejected it this time, but when it’s time to cross the Celestial Tribulation, he could just seek out Galin Bodhisattva of the Spirit Platform Buddhism and easily borrow it!"

"Keeping such a top-grade Buddhist Spiritual Treasure on one’s person, on the contrary, isn’t ideal. It would likely attract envy and covetous eyes. In my opinion, this cultivator is extremely clever!"

One cultivator looked at Lin Xuankong with a puzzled expression. "Who exactly is he? What is his background, to warrant such attention from Galin Bodhisattva of the Spirit Platform Buddhism?"

"Indeed! Galin Bodhisattva hails from the Spirit Platform Buddhism. Even the late-stage Fifth Grade Sect Leader of the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect would have to treat her with utmost respect, not daring to show the slightest neglect. Yet, Galin Bodhisattva is so close to this cultivator. Tsk, tsk. This cultivator is definitely no ordinary person!"

The surrounding cultivators burst into discussion. Many looked at Lin Xuankong, their eyes filled with puzzlement and a hint of wariness.

The reason for their wariness was natural: a cultivator so close to Galin Bodhisattva was not someone they could afford to offend!

At this moment, Duan River, the Vice Sect Leader of the Fire Spirit Immortal Sect, was still kneeling on the red cloud. Seeing Galin Bodhisattva gradually float away, apparently paying him no heed, the panic that had risen in his heart began to dissipate, and he heaved a heavy sigh of relief.

Recalling the scene that had just transpired, he turned to look at Lin Xuankong, a trace of wariness also appearing in his eyes.

Galin Bodhisattva’s obvious favor towards Lin Xuankong had naturally aroused his envy, jealousy, and resentment.

However, thinking about Lin Xuankong’s recent rejection of Galin Bodhisattva’s invitation to join the Spirit Platform Buddhism, Flaming Blade Duan River couldn’t help but feel a secret thrill of delight.

"Senior Uncle, what should we do now?"

Second Prince Chang Li, evidently still in a state of shock over Lin Xuankong’s refusal of the Glazed Purification Bottle, was unsure of what to do.
