Xiang Qi's retreat is three months. For three months, for Xiang Qi, a retreater, he slipped away from his fingertips without the slightest feeling.

But for Zhong Yan, it was a long and difficult 90 days. However, Zhong Yan, who works day and night, is extremely happy and excited, although she is physically and mentally exhausted.

In the past three months, she, Cao Bufan and several other elders have been busy with one thing, that is, the Great Elder's Inauguration Ceremony three days later.

Zhong Yan was instructed by Xiang Qi to prepare for this appointment ceremony.

Even if Xiang Qi didn't say it, Zhong Yan also understood that this appointment ceremony of the Great Elder of the Phantom Sword Sect was extremely important, and it would have a far-reaching impact on the development of the Phantom Sword Sect for hundreds or even thousands of years.

They even posted heroic posts, inviting the heads and elders of more than 10 sects of the Three Kingdoms of the Terran to participate in and observe the appointment ceremony of Grand Elder Xiang Qi.

The scale of this ceremony is not small, and the number of sects and monks invited is not small! This is unprecedented in the history of the Three Kingdoms of the Human Race for more than 10,000 years, and this is the first time!

In fact, it is a trivial matter to succeed to the position of the Great Elder of the Phantom Sword Sect, and through this observation ceremony, it is Xiang Qi's ultimate goal to deter the younger generations and determine the status of the Phantom Sword Sect.

After all, Xiang Qi's purpose in serving as the Great Elder of the Illusory Sword Sect was to carry forward the foundation left by the Ancestor of Changqing and become the largest immortal cultivation sect in the Qi State and even the Three Kingdoms of the Human Race.

And now Xiang Qi, who is strong in his own strength, is by no means under any Yuanying Monk. Even if a few join forces, I'm afraid they won't be his opponents. He had heard that apart from himself, there were only two mid-Yuan Infant monks in the Three Kingdoms of the Human Race, one was Xuanlanzi of the Liunian Sect, and the other was Master Hongyi of the Tiancong Sect. Moreover, these two people had not been advanced to the middle stage of the Yuan Infant for a long time, and their cultivation had not yet been consolidated.

Back then, Xiang Qi at the same time against the Divine Turtle King and the Golden Jiao King, the two sea monsters equivalent to the late Yuan Infant period, did not fall behind, and with the help of the third brother Wentian and the fourth brother Shanu, they killed these two big demons in one fell swoop.

And now, his strength has increased a lot, and he has reached the peak of the middle stage of the Yuan Infant, and it is naturally no problem for a few Yuan Infant Monks.

Zhong Yan, Cao Bufan and others were very busy, and Xiang Qi used these three months to consolidate his cultivation, and also made the mysterious objects and dantians full of mana, and made full preparations for the appointment ceremony in three days. In these years, but speaking with fists, whoever has a hard fist has the right to speak. No matter who it is, if he dares to make trouble at the appointment ceremony, or if he is not satisfied, he Xiang Qi will not hesitate to teach him some lessons!

......

From the head of the Phantom Sword Sect to the head of the sect, the elders of the peak rudder, down to the disciples who have just opened the spirit and succeeded in refining qi, their faces are all filled with bright smiles, they are the Phantom Sword Sect, the Quartet comes to the court, what a glory this is, what a proud face!

What's more, in the past three months, the Phantom Sword Sect has also undergone many gratifying changes. Not only did they recover some of the lost ground, but also a considerable number of long-famous casual cultivators rushed to join the Phantom Sword Sect, and the strength of the sect became stronger day by day.

On this day, the long-awaited ceremony of the Great Elder Appointment Ceremony for the disciples of the Illusory Sword Sect finally began.

The place where this appointment ceremony was held was in the Xuanling Pavilion at the foot of Phantom Sword Peak Mountain.

Xuanling Pavilion was specially built hundreds of years ago by Shi Jizi for Shi Yong and Zhong Yan to hold a double cultivation ceremony.

Zhong Yan's original intention was to open up a vacant land and rebuild a hall for the purpose of holding the ceremony. However, Zhong Yan's proposal was vetoed by Xiang Qi.

The reason given by Xiang Qi is also very simple. After all, the current Phantom Sword Sect is in the early stages of its rise, and instead of wasting a lot of manpower and financial resources to build a large number of buildings, it is better to invest all this energy and financial resources in expanding the strength of the sect.

Xiang Qi's suggestion was to repair the Xuanling Pavilion. The size of Xuanling Pavilion is more than 100 zhang square, which is enough.

Regarding Xiang Qi's opinion, Zhong Yan, Cao Bufan and others naturally would not refuse anything.

At this moment, the interior of the Xuanling Pavilion is full of lights and people's voices, so lively!

I saw that in the hall, hundreds of round stone tables were arranged, and around each stone table, there were seven or eight people sitting, with different costumes and different expressions, who were the monks of the three kingdoms of the human race who came to observe the double cultivation ceremony.

"I don't know if you've heard of it, the great elder who is about to succeed the Phantom Sword Sect is the middle stage of the Yuan Infant Cultivation, and the stone Jizi who is about to die is the early stage of the Yuan Infant. No wonder Shi Jizi would take the initiative to give up the position of Great Elder, it turned out that his ability was not as good as the other party. ”

"Your Excellency's news is too late. Shi Jizi died three months ago. ”

"What, Elder Shi has already died? I remember, he has not yet reached his lifespan, and he still has a few decades to live!

"You guessed it right!"

"How is it possible! Senior Xiang has worked hard to restore the Illusory Sword Sect, how could he do such a thing?"

"Have you ever heard that hundreds of years ago, the Phantom Sword Sect held a double cultivation ceremony for two foundation building juniors?"

"I've heard of it, but what does this matter have to do with Shi Jizi's killing?"

Shi Jizi held a large-scale double cultivation ceremony for Shi Yong, the junior of his family, but he was disturbed by one person. And the person who is stirring up the situation is none other than Xiang Qi, who is about to succeed the Great Elder of the Phantom Sword Sect today!"

"What! Xiang Qi, who made a big fuss about the double cultivation ceremony back then, was only in the middle stage of foundation building, and in less than five hundred years, he actually broke through two great realms one after another and advanced to the middle stage of the Yuan Infant, this speed of advancement is also incredible! Could it be that he is a god?"

......

The same scene was happening in every corner of the Xuanling Pavilion, and everyone sighed that Xiang Qi, who was about to succeed the position of the Great Elder of the Phantom Sword Sect, was a genius in cultivating immortals.

However, when they knew that Xiang Qi was only an inferior spirit body at the Enlightenment Ceremony five hundred years ago, their faces were full of disbelief, but they were also encouraged, their fists clenched, and they secretly made some unrealistic decisions in their hearts.

Cultivating immortals is to change one's life against the sky, talent is very important, but the efforts of the day after tomorrow are more important. No matter how talented a person is, if he doesn't work hard enough, he won't achieve too high in the end.

However, the Yuanying monks who were sitting in the front row were not in a good mood at the moment. The Phantom Sword Sect held an appointment ceremony for the new Great Elder, and there were not many elements of appointment, but more of a deterrent and warning.

It's okay to watch others pretend to be down, but you have to be intimidated like sitting on pins and needles, which makes people feel extremely awkward, how can you be in a good mood!
