"The fifteenth Human Pillar—Chen Yi!" With the words of the White Mountain Ancestor, everyone’s gaze fell on Chen Yi, making him slightly surprised. The fifteenth Human Pillar? He only had a basic understanding of the Human Race at the Zhou Mountain Battlefield. In his impression, those above the Five Divine Power Realms were called "Pillars." But it seemed that "Human Pillar" had a special meaning. At this moment, Yue Ruifeng beside him smiled and clasped his hands towards him, saying, "Congratulations, Daoist Chen Yi." This time he did not take the stance of a senior from the Grand Void Sect, but treated Chen Yi as an equal. Moreover, he explained via sound transmission: "The title of Human Pillar, you can understand it as similar to the Supreme Elder of the Grand Void Sect. Not only can you mobilize the soldiers of all the garrisoned cities at any time, but if you discover puppets of treachery within the Human Race, you can dispose of them at will." "Just as you previously destroyed the Yuhua Immortal Sect, if it were now, not only would you not be investigated by several Ancestors, but everyone would stand by your side." Chen Yi was enlightened at the moment. It turned out the title of "Human Pillar" came with such authority, meaning he had the recognition of several Ancestors and many Great Powers. No wonder, up until now, he was the fifteenth Human Pillar. Before Chen Yi could continue to ponder, he saw Lou Yuchun, the Sect Leader of Wuliang Mountain, turn back to congratulate him, "Now that your cultivation has reached this level, having twice saved the lives of our Human Race soldiers, slaughtering hundreds of thousands of demon troops, you’re indeed worthy of the name ’Human Pillar.’ Next to him, Daoist Meng Yao of the True Yang Sect also clasped his hands in agreement, "Congratulations, Daoist." Even Absolute Blade Yan Hai, though not showing it on his face, also expressed a congratulatory sentiment. Updates are released by novel~fire~net As several Taoist Great Powers spoke, all the other Great Powers present, be they Confucian, Buddhist, or from other heritages, rose to express their congratulations. Chen Yi returned the salutations one by one, and felt calm and tranquil inside. Just as Lou Yuchun said, even though his days at the Zhou Mountain Battlefield were short, his deeds were indeed legendary. Adding to his cultivation, Divine Power Realm, and the Xiao Qing on his wrist, the title of "Human Pillar" truly suited him! And during the interlude of these congratulations, all eight Ancestors on stage did not speak to stop it, they watched with either calm or gentle expressions. Ancestor Hong Tian smiled brightly and sent a sound transmission privately to a few people, "This little fellow, apart from anything else, has a disposition that is unmatched by ordinary people." "A sword cultivator who dared to venture alone into the Ten Thousand Mountains ought to have such a disposition," the Second Gentleman, with a peaceful gaze, observed Chen Yi and smiled via sound transmission: "In him, I see the elegance of Sword Immortal Mu Qing from years past." Daoist Zi Ying, hearing his words, slightly frowned, carefully scrutinizing Chen Yi’s appearance, then calmly said: "He is he, Sword Immortal Mu Qing is Sword Immortal Mu Qing. Even if they follow the same lineage, in terms of Sword Dao, Sword Immortal Mu Qing is still superior." The Second Gentleman turned to look at her, noncommittally saying, "In this regard, naturally Daoist Zi Ying’s words are more accurate." After listening to the two, Hong Tian was indifferent, "Just as Daoist Zi Ying said, Sword Immortal Mu Qing is Sword Immortal Mu Qing, and Chen Yi is Chen Yi. Nowadays, our Human Race needs the strength of this little fellow." "Master Hong is right, especially now that the Demon Court has had such a major upheaval. We all need to work together," commented Buddha Seal Ancestor, with a kind face, draped in a gold-red kasaya, looking serious for a moment and said: "Previously, Master Bai Shan asked this humble monk a question, will the oppression on the Buddhist sect by the Wei Dynasty on the Tianyuan Continent affect the Buddhist sect on the Zhou Mountain Battlefield?" "The answer of this humble monk is—no." "Even if several masters want to take action against our Buddhist sect, this humble monk will cooperate for the sake of our Human Race’s survival in this crevice, or to break the Demon Court’s blockade on us." Seeing him speak thus, both the Second Gentleman, Daoist Zi Ying, and Ancestor Hong Tian nodded solemnly. Seeing this, Bai Shan, understanding the intention of the other Ancestors, knew they had no objections to Chen Yi obtaining the title of "Human Pillar," and raised his hand to signal the Great Powers present to quiet down, then spoke: "Young friend Chen Yi, afterward, I will have someone send you the ’Pillar’ Token in a timely manner. You don’t need to worry, nor should you feel pressured by it." Upon hearing this, everyone quieted down, and Chen Yi stood up to salute, "Thank you, Ancestor Bai Shan, for your kindness, and thank the Ancestors. I also thank all the Daoists present. I, Chen Yi, bearing this title, will certainly strive diligently." Chen Yi sat down, maintaining a calm demeanor as he waited for the instructions of the Ancestors. The title of "Human Pillar" was not enough to affect his state of mind. After all, the few matters he held in his heart, each was more important than "Human Pillar," and it would not be an exaggeration to call them earth-shattering. One was about the ancient Taoist lineage dispute, which concerned all realms and heritages across the Zhou Mountain. Yet from what he knew, the Human Race on the Tianyuan Continent knew little about it, and those who could participate were only the "Demon Court," "Pure Land of Bliss," "Xunwang Heaven," and others. Thus for this matter, he could only rely on himself, as informing the Human Race’s Ancestors wouldn’t be of any use—at least not until the Demon Court was dealt with. The second was what he saw when he temporarily broke through to the "Heavenly Immortal" realm with the help of Dragon Energy, concerning "Taoist Rules." The threads of "Taoist Rules" that descended from the Zhou Mountain, Netherworld River, and Heaven and Earth Bridge seemed to show him a more truthful view of this world. Even at this moment, having fallen from the "Heavenly Immortal" realm, the scene of those entangled and intersecting "Taoist Rules" still occasionally surfaced in his mind.
