Lin Tianming collected Song Chufeng’s Spiritual Treasure sword and a powerful black defensive shield Magical Treasure. He reflected on the rarity of defensive Spiritual Treasures, attributing Song Chufeng's lack of one to internal Blood Red Alliance politics, which enabled his victory. Satisfied with the immense harvest of over ten million spirit stones and priceless artifacts, he noted its substantial boost to his wealth and the Lin Family’s foundation.

Thus, the gains from this occasion stand out as remarkably bountiful.

Grasping this reality, Lin Tianming overflowed with thrill and reassurance.

Once he settled his emotions somewhat, Lin Tianming swiftly redirected his attention and started the concluding arrangements for the Nascent Soul Ceremony as scheduled.

At the same time, within the Qingzhou Cultivation World.

As days flowed by, word of the Lin Family's impending Nascent Soul Ceremony had thoroughly permeated the entire cultivation realm.

For that matter, Lin Family clansmen had already personally called upon the mountain gates of key Nascent Soul powers such as the Yulan Sect, Yuanzhen Sect, Tang Family, and Thousand Melody Sect.

Via these Lin Family envoys, the announcement of the Lin Family's Nascent Soul Ceremony reached the ears of the sect masters or family heads of these influential groups.

This revelation fully confirmed the circulating tales of a Lin Family cultivator achieving Nascent Soul Stage.

Even though the cultivation world had largely accepted the legitimacy of this monumental happening beforehand.

Yet the Lin Family had offered no public acknowledgment, neither affirming nor refuting the issue.

Now, dispatching clansmen to inform these top powers served as the Lin Family's clear reply to all prior gossip and conjectures.

Consequently, the event echoed not just among these elite factions but also across Qingzhou's prominent large and mid-tier city bazaars, fueled by reports of Lin Family visits to multiple Nascent Soul entities.

Including confirmation that the Lin Family would soon stage the official Nascent Soul Ceremony, this intelligence buzzed through those marketplaces too.

Thanks to this deliberate spread of details, within under half a month, virtually every big and small faction across Qingzhou knew of it.

As a result, already vibrant Qingzhou surged with even greater fervor from the Lin Family's firm stance.

During these days, chatter about the event filled every city and faction domain.

In turn, the whole of Qingzhou boiled over, with cultivators passionately debating the news.

Meanwhile, those premier Nascent Soul factions arranged lavish welcomes for the Lin Family messengers bearing the tidings.

At once, their sect heads pledged to dispatch delegates to the Lin Family with felicitations prior to the Nascent Soul Ceremony.

Only after such assurances did the Lin Family representatives depart contentedly.

In the days that followed, force leaders conferred in private, centering talks on the Nascent Soul Ceremony.

To them, the Lin Family hadn't formally dispatched invitations via emissaries.

Nevertheless, these groups promptly chose attendees to head to the Lin Family with congratulations upon hearing the news.

They recognized full well that today's Lin Family differed vastly from its past.

Indeed, it had ascended to true Nascent Soul force status.

Furthermore, the breakthrough achiever was the prodigiously talented and mighty Lin Tianming himself.

By now, the Lin Family stood unassailably as Qingzhou's sixth premier Nascent Soul power.

Beyond that, Lin Tianming had freshly vanquished Song Chufeng from the Blood Red Alliance.

Slaying a peer-rank foe—and a battle-hardened Nascent Soul veteran no less—highlighted Lin Tianming's fearsome prowess.

Hence, amid this height of acclaim, the Lin Family basked in unrivaled prominence.

Thus, sans direct summons from the Lin Family, these factions wouldn't dare overlook such a spectacle.

And that formed merely a portion of the motivations.

Besides, attending the Nascent Soul Ceremony held clear advantages for Golden Core powers.

For starters, Golden Core attendees could behold Lin Tianming's imposing presence up close and perhaps receive his direct counsel.

Such pointers from Lin Tianming proved priceless for Golden Core cultivators.

Therefore, by proactively dispatching envoys with well-wishes, Golden Core factions could curry favor while gleaning vital cultivation wisdom.

Exactly for these reasons, Qingzhou's Golden Core powers universally geared up for the Lin Family's Nascent Soul Ceremony upon learning the news.

This affair had simmered throughout Qingzhou territories for quite some time.

Even adjacent provinces caught wind that the Lin Family had emerged as Qingzhou's sixth Nascent Soul heavyweight.

Consequently, the breakthrough news ignited buzz not solely in Qingzhou but across bordering regions too.

Still, protagonist Lin Tianming stayed oblivious to the frenzy.

Likewise, Lin Family elders and clansmen hustled with Nascent Soul Ceremony setups.

Time marched onward steadily.

Before anyone noticed, half a year slipped away.

As the calendar progressed, the Lin Family Nascent Soul Ceremony loomed nearer.

Lately, envoys from diverse factions trickled into Lin Family domains.

Accordingly, Lin Family holdings like Nanfeng City and Linyang Marketplace teemed with unknown cultivators.

With swelling numbers of congratulatory visitors, foot traffic swelled noticeably in these mid-sized Lin Family cities.

Presently, these bazaars brimmed with vibrancy, commerce hitting fever pitch.

Additionally, droves had already ventured early to the Lin Family Clan Grounds.

In anticipation, Lin Xingrong stood ready, greeting Golden Core force reps nearly every few days.

Though Foundation Establishment factions could be overlooked entirely by the Lin Family.

As gracious hosts amid the Nascent Soul Ceremony festivity, Lin Family still sent Foundation Establishment clansmen to host these eager guests.

Via opulent receptions and displays of clan might plus deep roots, the Lin Family projected major power prestige to these visitors.

Concurrently, across Lin Family's mid-sized cities, grand auctions proliferated.

Golden Core-tier auctions occurred roughly every ten days.

Foundation Establishment ones ran daily, often exceeding twice.

To amplify prestige and reward visitors, the Lin Family spotlighted scarce wonders in these auctions.

While Nascent Soul Spiritual Items didn't grace every sale, they starred in numerous grand ones.

Third Grade Treasures popped up routinely among lots.

Even Fourth Order items surfaced sporadically in Golden Core auctions.

Such spectacles drew hordes of cultivators to Lin Family's mid-to-large cities.

The vibe pulsed with intensity as distant arrivals traded avidly in the bazaars.

Moreover, auction rarities fueled the hype to utmost heights.

Soon, surging cultivator influxes packed spots like Nanfeng City and Linyang Marketplace, with Golden Core experts—typically rare—ubiquitous.

No prior era matched this bustle in these bazaars' annals.

Including the Lin Family Clan Grounds, plenty of Golden Core visitors called.

Within half a month alone, Lin Xingrong had hosted over fifty Golden Core cultivators.

These more than fifty Golden Core experts stemmed from myriad nations, proxying over fifty Golden Core factions.

Thus, as heir apparent to Lin Family Patriarch, Lin Xingrong first truly sensed the clan's might and staggering clout.

This raucous buzz persisted relentlessly.
