Chapter 3473: 3473 Chapter 3473: Finally, We’ve Been Waiting for You Little Mei first sniffed the lotus flower, then without any hesitation, plucked off a petal and put it in her mouth. A sweet taste exploded in her mouth, and Little Mei squinted her eyes, "It’s so sweet!" Wind Lotus Elder chuckled, "These lotus flowers are not only beautiful but also one of our foods. At the same time, they are also necessary for our cultivation." Most of the techniques and secret arts of the Ancient Lotus Holy Land were related to lotus flowers. There were many types of lotus flowers here, some ordinary and many at the level of heavenly and earthly treasures. Some could be used for refining equipment and medicines. As they approached the Lotus Core Sacred Hall, the fragrance of flowers became stronger, and within the dense floral scent was a rich aura of origin essence. Numerous origin spirit veins converged here, turning the entire Lotus Lake into a sacred cultivation ground. Wind Lotus Elder’s warship stopped on a lotus petal near the Lotus Core Sacred Hall. Wind Lotus Elder put away the warship and gestured with his hand, "Mr. Lin, this way." Lin Moyu nodded and followed Wind Lotus Elder onto the petal. The petal automatically flew up, carrying the three of them towards the Lotus Core Sacred Hall. The Lotus Core Sacred Hall was also shaped like a flower stamen, pure white all over, exuding a sacred aura. Along the way, they encountered several disciples of the Ancient Lotus Holy Land. They all bowed and greeted Wind Lotus Elder, while also showing great curiosity towards Lin Moyu and Little Mei, giving them looks of attention. Obviously, not many people came here usually, otherwise they wouldn’t react like this. Wind Lotus Elder explained, "Please don’t mind, Mr. Lin. Not many people come here usually." Lin Moyu smiled and said, "There shouldn’t be many visitors in a holy land. It’s the same in other holy lands." The petal flew into the sacred hall. Inside the hall, the fragrance turned into mist, obscuring the view of the interior. Wind Lotus Elder called out loudly, "Holy Lord, Mr. Lin has arrived." The voice traveled into the mist, and then the fragrance became stronger while the mist dissipated, revealing the situation inside the sacred hall. These changes, in Lin Moyu’s eyes, were actually just illusions controlled by a low-level formation. After all, it was a holy land, so they had to show off a bit. Lin Moyu could understand. In the sacred hall, at the main seat, which should be the Holy Lord’s position. A young woman in a pink and white robe had already stood up and walked over. She had a beautiful appearance with a hint of aloofness, like a pure white lotus flower. Lin Moyu noticed that her temperament was somewhat similar to the Immortal Lotus Holy Maiden. Lin Moyu knew she was the current Ancient Lotus Holy Lord. In the Ancient Lotus Holy Land, anyone who became the Holy Lord was called the Ancient Lotus Holy Lord, temporarily not using their previous surname and given name. Just like their Holy Maiden, who was uniformly called the Immortal Lotus Holy Maiden. As for what they were called before, it wasn’t important. This was their rule. Names were just codes to them. Although it seemed fine, Lin Moyu could feel that this was to make all disciples of the Ancient Lotus Holy Land consider it their home, themselves just a part of it, rather than individuals. All power had to be twisted together, not dispersed. The Ancient Lotus Holy Lord walked up to Lin Moyu and slowly bowed, "Greetings, Mr. Lin." Her posture was very humble, coming over to greet him personally, without any airs of a Holy Lord. Lin Moyu knew that she must have received the news sent back by Wind Lotus Elder early on and wasn’t surprised at all by his arrival. Lin Moyu also smiled and returned the bow, "Lin Moyu greets the Holy Lord." "Mr. Lin’s journey must have been tiring. I’ve already had people prepare a banquet," the Ancient Lotus Holy Lord chuckled lightly, a smile appearing on her beautiful face, like a celestial lotus blooming, indescribably beautiful. Lin Moyu smiled and said, "Is the Holy Lord not in a hurry?" The Ancient Lotus Holy Lord said, "We are in a hurry, but it’s not so urgent that we can’t spare this moment. We want to inform Mr. Lin of the details of the matter. Why don’t we talk while we eat?" Lin Moyu said, "That’s fine. I also want to try the delicacies of the Ancient Lotus Holy Land." The Ancient Lotus Holy Lord immediately led the way, walking out of the Lotus Core Sacred Hall. The Ancient Lotus Holy Lord’s cultivation level was very high. Lin Moyu found that she was different from the Holy Lords and Sect Masters of other top powers. In other top powers, most Holy Lords were at the sixth level of Dao Venerable, essentially managers of their respective powers. Those seventh-level and above elders were basically focused on cultivation, only coming out when there were important matters. Without major events, they wouldn’t appear. But the Ancient Lotus Holy Lord was far beyond the sixth level of Dao Venerable, even beyond the seventh level. When facing Wind Lotus Elder, she treated him as an equal, and Wind Lotus Elder’s tone even carried a hint of respect. The Ancient Lotus Holy Land, which had existed since prehistoric times, was indeed very different from current powers. The Ancient Lotus Holy Lord summoned a lotus flower, leading everyone to fly towards the sky. In the Ancient Lotus Holy Land, numerous lotus flowers floated in the sky. These lotus flowers varied greatly in size, with the largest having a diameter of several hundred meters and the smallest only ten meters. On many lotus flowers, there were disciples of the holy land, either cultivating or drinking tea and discussing the Dao, looking very comfortable. They arrived at the highest and largest lotus flower, with more than a dozen slightly smaller lotus flowers arranged in a circle like meditation cushions. In the center, a lotus-shaped large table was filled with various exquisite foods. "It’s so beautiful!" Little Mei exclaimed. Regardless of taste, just in terms of appearance, it was the most exquisite food she had ever seen. Wind Lotus Elder smiled and said, "Not only beautiful, but also delicious." Little Mei nodded vigorously, "Of course! It looks delicious!" On the lotus flower, several people were already waiting there. Lin Moyu saw an old acquaintance, the Immortal Lotus Holy Maiden. The Immortal Lotus Holy Maiden was obviously stunned for a moment when she saw Lin Moyu. After they landed, the Lotus Holy Lord waved her jade hand, "Mr. Lin, please be seated." Then she beckoned to the Immortal Lotus Holy Maiden, "Immortal Lotus, come sit with Mr. Lin. You are old acquaintances after all." The Immortal Lotus Holy Maiden immediately walked over quickly, "Fellow Daoist Lin, long time no see." Lin Moyu smiled slightly, "Long time no see indeed. Immortal Lotus Holy Maiden’s cultivation has greatly improved. Congratulations." The Immortal Lotus Holy Maiden shook her head, "Fellow Daoist Lin is the impressive one. I can’t even see through your cultivation level now." The Immortal Lotus Holy Maiden’s cultivation had now reached the third level of Dao Venerable. After returning from the Genius Competition, she had risen another level, but compared to Lin Moyu, the difference was quite large. After the two sat down, the Immortal Lotus Holy Maiden sighed lightly, "I heard the Holy Lord and others say they were going to find Mr. Lin. I didn’t expect Mr. Lin to be you." Lin Moyu smiled and said, "How about it, are you surprised or disappointed?" The Immortal Lotus Holy Maiden shook her head, "Neither surprised nor disappointed, just somewhat in awe. Mr. Lin is indeed different from others, beyond our comparison." Lin Moyu smiled, "What’s so different? I just had a bit more luck, went back and forth at death’s door a few more times, and then didn’t walk in." The Immortal Lotus Holy Maiden knew that Lin Moyu must have encountered many dangers. "Although we are safe here, we also miss out on some thrills." Lin Moyu said, "Actually, this is not bad. Some people are destined not to experience those things." He saw that the Immortal Lotus Holy Maiden’s fortune was extremely prosperous. Her cultivation path must be smooth sailing. In the future, reaching the ninth level of Dao Venerable would be no problem, and even going a step further wasn’t impossible. At this moment, a flame lit up in the sky, and Fire Lotus Elder arrived impetuously on the lotus flower, coming to Lin Moyu’s side: "Young friend Lin, we’ve finally been waiting for you to come!"
