Following a Hundred Years of Cultivation, I'm dying Before I Got Cheats

Chapter 963: The Final Handover, The Inauguration Ceremony

Editor: Henyee Translations

In Jiang Chengxuan’s intuition, it seemed as though a line connected him directly to the higher realms.

In that distant world, there seemed to be an entity already linked to him by karma.

However, without attempting to use this karmic connection, he could not be certain what could be transmitted through it.

Of these two abilities, Xue Ping had only ever used the immortal treasure projection during his years as Sect Master.

Under the enhancement of an immortal treasure projection, one could almost overpower an opponent of the same level, and even combat a Mahayana Daolord was not out of the question.

As for the authority to contact immortal ancestors, Xue Ping had never used it, as its effects were profound and mysterious, and its specific utility remained unknown.

By comparison, the immortal treasure projection was much more reliable.

These two powerful capabilities naturally could not be used without limits, which is why opportunities to contact the higher realms were not wasted, given their elusive nature.

Perhaps only in times of absolute despair, with no other options left, would the sect consider using it as a gamble against fate.

After explaining these two critical powers, Xue Ping then went on to detail the duties of a Sect Master to Jiang Chengxuan, as well as sharing insights from his years in the position.

He also discussed the relationships with other sects connected to the Haoran Sect, including both collaborations and grievances, leaving no detail unshared with Jiang Chengxuan.

This information was crucial for Jiang to decide on the strategic direction of the Haoran Sect in the future.

Even the relationships among the various elders within the sect and their individual grievances were disclosed to Jiang by Xue Ping, which truly broadened his horizons.

Given the complex interrelations among the many elders of the Haoran Sect, understanding these dynamics was no small feat.

However, as a Dao Mastery, remembering this information was not difficult for Jiang Chengxuan, and merely being aware of these details was sufficient without needing to focus too intensely on them.

After all, under the Sect Master, there were various organizations to assist with the administration, so not everything needed his detailed attention.

Finally, after a lengthy transition period, Xue Ping had fully informed the new Sect Master, Jiang Chengxuan, of the duties, rights, and responsibilities of the Haoran Sect’s leadership.

“All right, Chengxuan, I have done what I can; from here on out, it is up to you.”

Xue Ping, having completed everything, felt not tired but more spirited.

Now, he could finally pursue his cultivation breakthroughs without any distractions. ƒreewebηoveℓ.com

Watching Qin Shenwu achieve the status of a Mahayana Daolord had long inspired him,

and after the Five Realms Battle, he had gained many insights and made substantial progress, increasing his chances of breakthrough.

“Thank you, Sect Master,”

Jiang Chengxuan said to Xue Ping, who simply waved his hand and then added,

“News of your succession will soon spread throughout the Floodgate Realm Realm, and it will be a great celebration for our Haoran Sect.”

What he referred to were the internal and external inauguration ceremonies.

One ceremony was internal, to inform all disciples and elders and to celebrate together.

The other was to announce to the entire Floodgate Realm, inviting all sects to join in a grand celebration.

Both ceremonies would be organized by the sect’s dedicated team responsible for the transition of the Sect Master.

In the meantime, news of Jiang Chengxuan’s succession as Sect Master had already spread throughout the Haoran Sect.

By the day after Xue Ping’s official abdication, all the elders within the Haoran Sect had been informed of this development.

Naturally, everyone was shocked and initially at a loss for words.

Although Jiang Chengxuan’s succession had been certain, no one had anticipated that it would come so swiftly.

Those who had once harbored ambitions for the position had their hopes dashed.

They knew that if Jiang Chengxuan had no intention of declining, no one could challenge his position.

After all, the difference between them was clear,

Jiang Chengxuan was destined to become a Mahayana Daolord.

For most, learning of this news was surreal,

the disciple they had once seen arrive at the sect had now become their supreme leader.

Some went to Xue Ping or his confidants to confirm the news, receiving nothing but affirmation.

Jiang Chengxuan had truly taken over as the Sect Master of the Haoran Sect,

and even the Sect Master token and all duties had been fully transferred.

As this news spread from the elders to the disciples, it caused yet another stir.

Not long after Jiang Chengxuan’s breakthrough to Dao Mastery, another shocking piece of news had emerged,

and again, it involved the same protagonist.

Countless disciples of the Haoran Sect and fans of Jiang Chengxuan were thrilled.

To say that Jiang Chengxuan’s assumption of the role of Sect Master was the expectation of many would be an understatement, especially among the younger generation of disciples who represented the future of the Haoran Sect. To nearly 80% of these future stewards, Jiang Chengxuan had become both a role model and a target of aspiration.

As soon as the Haoran Sect’s organization responsible for conducting ceremonies started preparations, the authenticity of this succession became undeniable to everyone.

The entire Haoran Sect began to bustle with activity, decorating and preparing for the celebrations. The festive colors were laid across the vast territories of the sect, and both elders and disciples consciously played their parts.

In just a few days, everyone had accepted the news of Jiang Chengxuan’s succession as Sect Master, embodying the collective will of the Haoran Sect.

Jiang Chengxuan had become a legend, with an unshakeable status within the sect.

The celebratory atmosphere permeated the entire Haoran Sect, and in such a spirit, Jiang Chengxuan’s inauguration ceremony quickly approached.

On the day of the ceremony, the entire Haoran Sect was adorned with red and colorful precious silks. Every disciple donned the official ceremonial attire, which was strikingly beautiful.

At the main entrance of the Sect Master Hall, the largest sacrificial altar of the Haoran Sect was prepared.

On the platform, surrounded by mid-air, countless disciples and elders in uniform eagerly awaited the start of the ceremony.

At the very center of the altar stood three figures: Xue Ping, Qin Shenwu, and Jiang Chengxuan.

These three represented the most powerful and highest-ranking individuals of the Haoran Sect.

All the offerings were arranged on a grand sacrificial table, and celestial incense burned, sending curls of fragrant smoke into the air, making the altar seem like a realm of the immortals.

“The inauguration ceremony begins now!”

With the declaration of the ceremony official, numerous horns sounded in unison, and drums echoed throughout.

Various auspicious beasts emerged from the ritual instruments, soaring above the altar in a spectacular display.

On the platform, Jiang Chengxuan stood with a majestic and solemn demeanor, radiating authority.

Opposite him, Xue Ping and Qin Shenwu, dressed in ceremonial robes, awaited the beginning of the abdication ritual.
