Three hundred years had passed, transforming Longshan Ling remarkably.

The territory of the Longshan Family expanded repeatedly, even occupying one-fifth of the Slan Empire.

If it weren’t for that legendary Patriarch of the Longshan Family who hadn’t explicitly agreed to allow the Rank Church to establish itself there,

the Longshan Family would likely have become the Longshan Empire by now.

In the Plateau of Myriad Nations, the establishment of any empire requires the approval of the Main God Church.

This is a cast-iron rule set by the gods of the Ocean of Light.

However, even without establishing an empire,

the influence of the Longshan Family today is hardly weaker than that of an empire.

That legendary Patriarch of the Longshan Family was declared a Demigod over a hundred years ago.

For this, the Longshan Family was endowed with endless glory.

A Demigod, as long as they do not stand against the church and covertly gather followers,

can live exceptionally comfortably, the Pope of the Rank Church had worried when he first learned that the Longshan Patriarch had stepped into the seventh level of Demigod.

He feared that the other party would utilize the Longshan domain to gather followers.

But after observing for a while and even employing the church’s unique ability to sense the gathering of faith, and confirming that there was no fluctuation of faith gathering around Longshan Ling,

he completely put his mind at ease about the Longshan Patriarch.

After all, a Demigod who doesn’t cause trouble and isn’t interested in followers can save the church a lot of worry.

With the tacit consent of the Rank Church,

the development of the Longshan Family thereafter was exceptionally smooth.

On this day, many members of the Longshan Family gathered toward the clan training grounds.

“Today should be the day the Patriarch talks about the Martial Tao Cultivation Skill.”

“I finally get to see the Patriarch, such a day only comes once every ten years.”

“Our current Patriarch of the Longshan Family is a spectacular talent, stepping into the seventh level of Demigod before the age of five hundred, surely that must break the records of the neighboring empires, right?”

…

The faces of the Longshan Family members beamed with pride, their tones filled with fervor.

This was not something strange, for before Longshan Yuan assumed the position of Patriarch, the Longshan Family was just a small force tucked away in the southeast corner of the empire.

“I heard that the Pope of the Rank Church has invited the Patriarch to join the church several times, promising to request a subordinate deity spot from the Main God…”

“A subordinate deity, that is a deity subordinate to the Prime God, a much higher status than those gods who reside alone in the Divine Kingdom.”

“It’s a pity that the Longshan Patriarch did not immediately agree, saying he needed to think it over.”

“Worthy of our Patriarch, if a Prime God invited me to become a subordinate deity, not even needing to be a Prime God, any god inviting would make me wake up laughing from my dreams.”

Many members of the Longshan Family gathered at the edge of the training ground, and as it was still early and the Patriarch had not yet appeared, they quietly discussed among themselves.

The focus of the discussion was naturally still the Longshan Patriarch, being a Demigod and receiving an invitation from the Main God Church was undoubtedly an incredibly remarkable matter.

The Plateau of Myriad Nations is vast and broad, the number of Demigod-level powers is considerable, yet it’s rare to hear of a Demigod-level power being so valued by a deity.

Now not only was the Longshan Patriarch deemed significant by a deity, but this deity was also one of the twelve Prime Gods of Light, such an honor undeniably evoking envy from many Demigods.

Though becoming a subordinate deity would mean losing freedom, it would be as a deity subordinate to one of the twelve Prime Gods of the Ocean of Light.

Since ancient times, the number of True Gods might fluctuate, but the number of Prime Gods has always been fixed at twenty-four, neither more nor less.

…

Just as countless members of the Longshan Family continued their discussions.

In the center of the training ground, on a high platform, a figure appeared at some unknown time.

“The Patriarch has arrived.”

“The Patriarch is here.”

One by one, the members of the Longshan Family ceased their conversations, their gazes intensely fixed on the figure on the high platform.

In the Longshan Family, the Slan Empire, and even the Rank Church, all needed to step back, only the Patriarch was the sole ‘heaven.’

In the center of the platform,

Lin Yuan, with his hands clasped behind his back, glanced at the masses of Longshan Family members on the edge of the training ground.

“It’s been three hundred years already…” Lin Yuan felt somewhat emotional in his heart, for during these three hundred years, aside from his own cultivation, he also guided his clanspeople in the practice of the Martial Tao Cultivation Skill.

After all, related to the ‘transmission of the art,’ Lin Yuan was still willing to devote himself to this aspect.

And under Lin Yuan’s occasional guidance, the number of practitioners of the Martial Tao Cultivation Skill rapidly increased, with over ten thousand of the Longshan Family members cultivating to the Fourth Level.

Over two thousand reached the Fourth Level,

and more than fifty reached the Fifth Level.

There was even one who reached the Sixth Level, equivalent to a legendary knight among Martial Dao Cultivators.

This was only within the Longshan Family, as there were even more cultivators outside practicing the Martial Tao Cultivation Skill, though they lacked Lin Yuan’s personal guidance.

But with such a base, the number of strong cultivators at various levels of the Martial Tao Cultivation Skill was greater than that within the Longshan Family.

In just three hundred years, such achievements had been realized mainly due to the ‘localization’ of the Martial Tao Cultivation Skill, which primarily focused on tapping into the power buried deep within one’s bloodline.

This approach indeed meant sacrificing potential for future growth, but, in terms of training speed in the early stages, it was indeed formidable.

…

The spread of the Martial Tao Cultivation Skill was just one of the many minor accomplishments of Lin Yuan over these three hundred years.

One of Lin Yuan’s greatest achievements in the past three hundred years was in the development of the Spatial Layers, reaching an astounding ninety million layers.

Ninety million layers of Spatial Layers, a number Lin Yuan would not even dare to dream of before beginning his current journey.
