Attaining Immortality, Starting From Slaying Demons
Chapter 1327 - 785: Villainous Schemes_2

Chapter 1327: Chapter 785: Villainous Schemes_2

But to truly shed this skin and expel immortals under the banner of the Divine Dynasty... even if Shen Yi is a legitimate Daluo Golden Immortal, it’s likely he would be repeatedly attacked by the cultivators from the Three Immortals Sect, until his tribulation power is exhausted, falling into a long slumber.

Human strength has its limits.

Since slaying You Yao, Shen Yi has been perplexed for a long time, thus sending a letter to the Divine Dynasty to inquire about the situation in the other continents.

But even knowing, what can be done?

Even if he goes to the other continents and repeats these actions, how can one person manage so many places alone?

Unable to be in multiple places at once...

Until this moment, Shen Yi finally began to understand some of the Human Emperor’s thoughts; even wielding extraordinary power, one feels powerless against the tides of the world.

In the past, no matter what problem arose, as long as he slayed demons and seized longevity, raised his cultivation boundary, there was always a solution.

But since becoming a second rank, Shen Yi has completely exhausted that road.

The Primordial Chaos Great Luo Golden Immortal, Great Freedom Bodhisattva, already stands at the pinnacle of the world, and compared with regular Golden Immortals, having entered that Ice Mountain, his every move mobilizes true Heavenly Dao Power.

Almost touching the Dao, where is there room for improvement?

As for making an Immortal Oath and Grand Wish, Shen Yi currently has no clue, nor does he know how to fulfill it.

To strengthen the foundation, it seems he can only start with spiritual treasures.

The Jade Chen Treasure Decree also records methods on how to refine spiritual treasures with tribulation power, but unfortunately the chances of success are quite low; even pouring in the two hundred thousand tribulations saved from his Dao attainment could not even stir a ripple.

Better to keep it, in case he faces a mortal tribulation, he might wager on reshaping his form in the Ten Thousand Demon Hall.

Fortunately, in his hand is a dark gold Zen Stick with five refinements, and a non-action sword with three refinements, though impoverished for a Golden Immortal, at least he owns implements for dueling magic.

"Take it slowly."

This phrase Shen Yi has used to comfort himself many times, but this time, even his eyes flicker with doubt.

Anyone with sense knows, as time passes, the situation between the two sects will only grow more stable; to attempt a breakthrough by then would be nothing but a pipe dream.

At that moment, Shen Yi suddenly looked up.

Amidst myriad streaks of light crossing over Heavenly Tower Mountain, one silently descended, hovering outside the Tai Xu True Monarch Temple.

...

The Immortal Crane spread its wings, brushing away the thin mist.

Revealing the majestic phantom of a grand hall, in which gathered numerous auspicious clouds, and seated behind them, are the Primordial Chaos Great Luo Golden Immortals of the Three Immortals Sect.

They sit high above the hall, overlooking the swiftly approaching figures around them.

Summoning all third-grade disciples, North Continent hasn’t seen such a grand movement for a long time.

As each disciple hurried into the hall with solemn expressions, they instinctively lined up on both sides, making the vast Daoist Hall utterly silent.

"Disciple Li Shan, pays respects to the elders."

"Disciple Qi Xian, pays respects to the elders."

As these two streaks of light respectively came from the left and right, standing at the forefront of the disciples, a crowd of Golden Immortals turned their gaze towards the figure of Chi Yun in the center.

"..."

Chi Yunzi closed his eyes feigning sleep, remaining silent.

Nearby, Qing Guangzi sat calmly, with a hint of mockery in his eyes.

The other Golden Immortals, aware of the recent feud between these two, could only helplessly shake their heads.

The saying goes, misfortune finds those with hard lives, hemp breaks at the thinnest point... but it’s breaking way too often.

Disciples had mostly learned the situation from the jade slips, now all looking towards the center of the hall where a person, eyes bloodshot, kneeling and panting heavily, lay next to a shattered corpse streaming gold rays from its cracks.

"Please, elders, uphold justice for us!"

"Give justice for Brother Chu Xi!"

Master Chu Xi, was the chief disciple of Chi Yun Cave, once second only to Li Shan, You Yao and others in the North Continent, holding two great mansions, in order to vent for fallen junior brothers and sisters, volunteered to go to the East Continent, but now has already lost all vitality.

The Three Immortals Sect and Bodhi Sect are of similar scale.

The latter occupies all of Three Continents, while the former’s disciples cram in the North Continent, not that they are unable to defeat the monks, merely unwilling to leave their comfortable homeland.

Until last time’s incident, finally began this course.

Actually, the situation isn’t too bad.

After a brief period of acclimatization, the disciples of the Three Immortals Sect, filled with resentment, quickly gained a foothold in the other continents. Working together, they swiftly defeated those monks, driving them back step by step, and seized many Daoist fields from the Bodhi Sect.

But the problem lies here.

"Those people of Great Freedom in Sumeru Mountain are shameless. During our fair contest, they frequently assisted those Bodhisattvas in secret."

"Even when we discovered them, they only used excuses to evade responsibility."

"The disciples’ cultivation is too low to hold evidence, and they can only suffer this hidden loss." Speaking of which, the disciple, who was a Third Rank Great Luo Immortal, had a few more traces of sorrow in his voice: "But who would have thought, they have become even more reckless!"

Master Chu Xi has reached the extreme of the Ninety-nine Changes, and his cultivation and divine skills are outstanding. Since it was his junior brother and sister who died, he naturally harbors a murderous intent, and having suffered such humiliation, it was inevitable that his actions appeared somewhat ruthless.

But no matter what, from beginning to end, he adhered to the rules and fought openly.

"The Great Freedom Lotus Pearl Bodhisattva of East Sumeru, after the disciples failed in the contest, not only intervened to rescue them but also took the opportunity to vent his anger, killing Senior Brother Chu Xi with one palm!"

"He claimed he was too anxious and couldn’t restrain his force."

After the disciple’s words spread, even the Golden Immortals in the clouds showed a bit more coldness in their expressions.

Although it was clear from the last incident that those Bodhisattvas did not abide by the rules, no one expected these bald donkeys to have become so brazen without concealment.

"Do they think they’ve already turned the Three Continents into the Bodhi Sect’s possessions?" A Golden Immortal sneered.

The Three Immortals Sect did not pay attention to the matters of other continents because the difference in power between the Divine Dynasty and the Great Sect was too great. There was no need to be overly serious, as the believers would slowly compete after conquering it.

This does not mean that the Three Immortals Sect would be satisfied with just a North Continent.

"What do you all think?" Ling Xuzi cleared his throat and looked around.

Chi Yunzi had not spoken from the beginning to the end, but no one dared to ignore him. Everyone knew how strong his murderous intent was at this moment. If a satisfactory plan was not provided today, the East Continent might see an unrestrained Golden Immortal arrive, solely to kill for satisfaction, which could affect the great calamity and displease the Sect Hierarch.

The Golden Immortals exchanged glances, then swept their sleeves to cover their voices, beginning to whisper amongst themselves.

Meanwhile, below.

Many disciples had iron-blue faces, staring blankly at the corpse on the field.

The Great Freedom Bodhisattva struck, bullying the weak. If no counterattack is made, this great calamity will have nothing to do with them in the future.

But who should take the lead in proposing this matter?

The example set by Chi Yun Cave was right before their eyes, with Senior Brother Chu Xi just gone. Their junior brother was trapped and killed in the Daoist field by demons, and Senior Sister You Yao even explicitly said the person was innocent.

If they went to the East Continent, then everything hard-won in the North Continent...

"..."

Qi Xian quietly turned his head, looking at Li Shan across from him.

Seeing the deep meaning in his eyes, Li Shan paused slightly, then raised his eyebrows sharply. Being someone who could stand out among many disciples, how could he not understand the other’s intentions?

He just felt that using the current anger of the believers to carry out such despicable means was too shameless.

"Hmph."

Qi Xian withdrew his gaze with ridicule.

The opportunity he previously mentioned was precisely because he foresaw this scene.

Having suffered such humiliation, the sect would certainly retaliate.

And that Tai Xu junior brother, who is in the limelight, currently holds the Five Mansions, showing a trend to become the leading disciple of the Three Immortals Sect.

In this situation, if someone were to push him forward...

He would certainly be unwilling to go. After all, if he left, it would be uncertain who the Five Mansions would belong to in the future. Plus, he is at a critical moment for advancement; a slight delay would cause him to miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Moreover, Qi Xian had heard that he had a grudge against the Bodhi Sect. If he dared to stand out and leave the North Continent, he would surely be targeted by the Great Freedom Bodhisattvas, risking his life.

For all these reasons, that Tai Xu junior brother would definitely find an excuse to refuse.

Qi Xian did not truly intend to send him to the East Continent. He wanted him to refuse. As long as he dared to speak this out in the midst of the disciples’ indignation, the prestige he had gained from the Bodhi Sect would be completely buried.

It could also serve to suppress this young man’s arrogance, potentially fixing his future in these Five Mansions!

With this in mind, Qi Xian quietly stepped forward.

"Elders, I have a suggestion."
