Heaven-devouring Dragon Emperor

Qinglian and Baihe frowned and pondered, recalling the situation of the succession of suzerains in the past, and suddenly found that the situation was really as Gong Qingyue said.

The cultivation level of the successor sect master never seems to be lower than that of the predecessor. According to the records in the sect's classics, there are even examples of successors with extraordinary talents and stronger strength than their predecessors!

This kind of situation, they were already used to it, they never thought about it, only after hearing Gong Qingyue's reminder did they understand the mystery.

"Does it matter?"

Jiang Tian frowned slightly and asked in a deep voice.

In his view, the handover and replacement of suzerain is just a form of power inheritance.

Even if the successor's strength is worse, it shouldn't have much impact.

Unless the sect's rules stipulate that the successor can challenge the predecessor, and only the winner can obtain the upper eligibility, otherwise who can prevent the transfer of power?

"Of course it has an impact! This is not just a cumbersome rule, but a restriction that cannot be circumvented!" Gong Qingyue nodded heavily, her face extremely solemn.

"Take the current Lotus Blossom Sect as an example, the successor of the sect master must at least have the same level of cultivation as me, and also have to have practiced the 'Dao Xin Lotus Jue';

Only when these two conditions are met at the same time can one step onto the lotus platform to complete the handover, otherwise, even if they are brought over by force, they will not be recognized by the Qingxu lotus platform! "

"Oh? So, the next sect leader can only be one of these two elders?"

Jiang Tian's eyes twitched and he subconsciously looked at Qinglian and Bai He.

Gong Qingyue's words undoubtedly revealed an important clue involving the future power transfer of the Lianhua Sect.

It may not be too difficult for the successor to equal Gong Qingyue, but at the same time it would be too demanding to have practiced the "Dao Xin Lian Jue".

Among the current Samsara Realm warriors in Lianhua Sect, they are the only three who practice this technique. Apart from Gong Qingyue, the current sect leader, the remaining successor can only be one of Qinglian and Bai He.

"What?"

"Is this happening?"

Qinglian and Baihe's expressions changed, they were really shocked!

They never thought that the handover of the sect leader's position would require such strict restrictions.

Qinglian frowned, her complexion became extremely complicated.

Her cultivation level is slightly lower than that of Bai He, so she is naturally least likely to take over.

Bai He is at the fifth level of the reincarnation realm, and is still two small realms away from Gong Qingyue.

And whether it is she or Bai He, if they want to break through and advance, they must do so with the help of the Qingxu Lotus Platform.

Thinking of this, the two people's hearts trembled, and their faces became extremely ugly!

They were fully aware of the complexity of the situation and the dangerous situation facing the sect.

If the problem of Qingxu Lotus Platform is not solved, she and Bai He will not be able to break through and advance, and they will never be able to catch up with Gong Qingyue's realm.

In other words, the next successor to the Lianhua Sect is facing a difficult delivery!

"How could this be?" Qinglian looked desperate.

"If the problem of Qingxu Lotus Terrace really cannot be solved, then wouldn't our Lotus Sect have to... hiss!"

Bai He took a breath and almost didn't dare to say the next words.

The two of them looked at Gong Qingyue together, feeling a sense of sadness in their hearts!

Gong Qingyue is more than a thousand years older than them, and her martial arts potential has almost reached its limit.

If the Qingxu Lotus Platform is normal, she may still be able to advance and continue the power of the sect leader.

But now there is a problem with the Qingxu Lotus Platform, and her martial arts journey will stop there.

With her current level of cultivation and age, she will step down as the sect leader in less than a thousand years at most. If her successor cannot take over, where will the future of the Lotus Sect go?

"I didn't expect the situation to be so serious!"

Jiang Tian shook his head and sighed, deeply understanding the difficult situation facing this sect.

If the current situation continues, not only will the "Dao Heart Lotus Technique" be unsustainable, but even the selection of the next sect master will be a big problem.

"With all due respect! If the Qingxu Lotus Platform is really in decline, can your sect put aside this treasure and use other methods as inheritance like ordinary sects do?"

In his opinion, although Lianhua Sect is facing great difficulties, it is not impossible without the Qingxu Lotus Platform.

Don’t those sects that don’t have the Qingxu Lotus Platform pass on and grow stronger from generation to generation?

Since the difficulties caused by this lotus platform are so serious, why not abandon it?

If you don't go along Sunshine Avenue and insist on walking on this single-plank bridge, aren't you asking for trouble?

Out of respect for the Lianhua Sect, Jiang Tian secretly cursed in his heart and did not say these words directly.

Otherwise, the faces of Gong Qingyue and the two elders may become even more ugly.

"Throw it away?"

Qinglian and Baihe shook their heads and smiled bitterly, their faces full of helplessness.

Gong Qingyue shook her head and sighed deeply, feeling helpless.

"Young Daoist Jiang doesn't know that the existence of the Qingxu Lotus Platform is not only for us to practice the 'Dao Heart Lotus Technique', but it also represents the destiny of our Lotus Sect and the will of the ancestors of all generations!

Every spiritual pattern you see is the result of the lifelong efforts of the ancestors of our sect. In the inheritance history of our Lotus Sect, only those who practice the 'Dao Heart Lotus Art' are qualified to take charge of the sect. ;

As you know, this lotus platform is the foundation of our Lotus Sect. Without it, our inheritance would not be sustainable at all, and it would be difficult for the Taoist heart of the entire sect to be condensed! "

"Having said that, haven't you put a layer of shackles on yourselves?"

Jiang Tian shook his head and sighed.

"There is no way, this is the rule set by the founder of the sect, and it is also the reality of this sect, it is not something we can throw away just by saying it;

If it is forcibly abandoned, the sect will definitely face unimaginable turmoil. Even if no foreign enemies invade, the sect itself will fall apart! "

Gong Qingyue shook her head and sighed, but her expression was extremely resolute, as if she had never doubted the inheritance and precepts set down by her patriarch.

Jiang Tian nodded slowly, knowing that he couldn't force it.

After all, each sect has its own situation, just like the Tianyi Sect's "Tianmai", the Underground Spiritual Vein of Stinging Dragon Valley, and the Ji Family's "Ancestral Tree".

Different martial arts forces have different roots. After long years of development and continuation, they have penetrated into the blood and bone marrow, and it is indeed impossible to give up.

Even after a long period of time, this foundation has only a symbolic meaning, and it is also a belief that cannot be betrayed!

From this point of view, if the Qingxu Lotus Platform is really abandoned, the Lianhua Sect may no longer be called the Lianhua Sect.

"That's wrong!" Qinglian suddenly frowned, "Didn't we already get approval from the Qingxu Lotus Stage when we first started practicing the 'Dao Heart Lotus Art'? Why do we need to get approval again when the sect leader is handed over?"

"Huh? Yes!"

The corner of Bai He's eyes twitched, she was also deeply surprised.

Whether they can advance is one thing, but it is another thing to be recognized as the suzerain.

In their view, this is obviously redundant!
