Chapter 66: Chapter 60: Fame Spreads in Qing State

The Gang Condensing Pill is a treasure of immense value; its function is simple, aiding martial artists in the Inner Essence Realm at Ninefold Perfection to converge their Gang Essence and step into the Gang Essence Realm. Of course, it’s not a hundred percent guaranteed, but it serves as an enhancement.

Even so, it is extremely precious.

If news of a Gang Condensing Pill emerges, it inevitably leads to a bloody storm.

But now.

Judging from Ancestor Wang’s words, it seems like he wants to use this Gang Condensing Pill as a peace offering?

Wang Qinghe was immediately anxious.

The Wang Clan only has this one such treasure.

"Ancestor!"

But Ancestor Wang merely snorted through his nose with a sidelong glance, making Wang Qinghe tremble all over, face dejected, clenching his teeth as he dashed inside the mansion. Not long after, he returned, holding a box of golden silk and redwood.

Ancestor Wang gently lifted his hand, and the wooden box fell in front of Taoist Longshan.

"Indeed, it was my Wang Clan’s fault initially, but it is better to resolve a feud than to reinforce it. What does True Man Longshan think?"

With these words, everyone’s gaze towards Taoist Longshan became more reverent. It could be said that Ancestor Wang was almost raising Taoist Longshan with his and the Wang Clan’s prestige, killing a clan disciple and offering the Gang Condensing Pill as restitution. Such actions inevitably sparked speculation.

Taoist Longshan’s eyes slightly narrowed, finally smiling:

"Senior Wang, you overvalue it. This matter has nothing to do with the Wang Clan; since Wang Qingfeng is dead, what feud is there to speak of? Later this year, I plan to hold a Celestial Being Grand Ceremony at the True Martial Sect, and I hope Senior Wang can attend."

Ancestor Wang smiled and nodded.

The Celestial Being Grand Ceremony is an event that most celestial beings with influential heritage choose to hold. It’s an excellent opportunity to expand their prestige and showcase their strength.

"I certainly will attend."

The crowd watched the two celestial beings chatting and laughing, with none of the previous tension. They were puzzled, especially some young people, who were even more bewildered. It clearly seemed that Ancestor Wang had the upper hand, so why was he behaving like this?

Only some old hands understood.

This was because Ancestor Wang was wary of Taoist Longshan’s potential.

Imagine this: if someday in the future, Ancestor Wang passes on, and Taoist Longshan becomes extremely powerful, what if he remembers this old grievance one day?

Killing Wang Qingfeng was to give an explanation; offering the Gang Condensing Pill was to show goodwill.

With such a dual approach, they also managed to grasp Taoist Longshan’s decisive yet promise-keeping nature.

By accepting the Gang Condensing Pill, Taoist Longshan also signified the closure of this grievance.

Everyone couldn’t help but secretly praise Ancestor Wang as a cunning old fox, enduring and yielding, explaining why he could build such a great foundation.

Taoist Longshan bowed slightly in thanks and then left with the wooden box and two bodies.

The Wang Clan’s gate gradually closed.

Everyone remained unsatisfied, feeling that today’s events were full of twists and turns, their faces full of excitement as they dispersed, continuing to discuss quietly to avoid angering the Wang Clan.

It can be foreseen.

Today’s incident will inevitably spread across the land of Qing State at a remarkable speed, possibly even reaching other states, with Taoist Longshan’s fame soaring.

Inside the Wang Mansion,

The smile on Ancestor Wang’s face had turned cold, emanating a chilling aura.

Wang Qinghe and the Wang Clan’s senior members were all kneeling on the ground.

"The later generations are incompetent, bringing shame to the ancestor."

Ancestor Wang’s voice was icy:

"You are indeed incompetent. After so many years, there’s not even one promising Celestial Being candidate. If the Wang Clan had successors, would today have happened?"

There was anger in his eyes.

If only one person in the Wang Clan had the competence to ascend to Celestial Being, would he have to humble himself today, offering the Gang Condensing Pill, and even publicly kill Wang Qingfeng?

Wang Qinghe and others knelt, feeling utterly humiliated, but helpless.

After a long time.

Ancestor Wang finally sighed helplessly. The Wang Clan’s heritage is still lacking compared to thousand-year-old sects and families; every one of them must have produced more than one Celestial Being, with some even mastering the complete path to cultivate the Celestial Human Realm.

These years, he had been supporting the clan alone, and despite appearances of prosperity, the Wang Clan was showing signs of decline as his end approached, further exacerbated by internal strife.

Wang Qingfeng’s plot to seize the True Martial legacy was actually due to this.

"If it absolutely doesn’t work, then I’ll have to try the method I used back then..."

Ancestor Wang’s eyes were deep.

Unless absolutely necessary, he did not want to try this method again.

But this time, Taoist Longshan’s intrusion shook him somewhat.

However, after a moment, he thought of an unintended piece of news he had heard previously.

"Perhaps... we can start with this..."

He remembered Taoist Longshan’s Celestial Being Grand Ceremony, and his eyes gradually brightened.

...

The news of the battle between Taoist Longshan and the Wang Family Ancestor spread across Qing State at a remarkable speed.

People everywhere were discussing it.

Taoist Longshan’s reputation was reaching new heights, with many claiming that it was only a matter of time before Taoist Longshan made it onto the Great Yan Celestial Being List.

The Celestial Being List only takes thirty-six.

Each is an unparalleled powerhouse standing at the pinnacle of Great Yan.

Those on the Celestial Being List can easily suppress ordinary Celestial Human Realms.

In the Great Yan’s Thirteen States, only those standing at the ultimate peak of a state can enter the Celestial Being List.

Various news about Taoist Longshan and the True Martial Sect continued to spread, and the True Martial Sect undoubtedly rose into the ranks of the top sects, drawing the attention of many, though the most anticipated event was still Taoist Longshan’s upcoming Celestial Being Grand Ceremony.

That would undoubtedly be a grand event in Qing State.

At this moment on True Martial Mountain.

The atmosphere was equally boiling.

Since Taoist Longshan left seclusion and descended the mountain to rectify matters, news kept pouring in, making all disciples rejoice immensely.

One event after another wiped away past grievances.

Taoist Longshan’s dominance made all True Martial disciples proud, and even Ning Qi, usually calm and composed, couldn’t help but feel excited and emotional. His master was truly formidable, and his protective nature made Ning Qi feel very secure.

This time, Taoist Longshan’s ascension to the Celestial Human Realm made him fully understand the stature of the Celestial Human Realm.

This also made him look forward to the day he himself could step into the Celestial Human Realm and what kind of grandeur it would be.

At this moment.

All True Martial Sect disciples were waiting at the Martial Arts Arena.

In the distant sky.

A figure descended from the heavens, landing slowly.

Ning Qi and other true disciples stepped forward, faces full of joy:

"Welcome back to the mountain, Master!"

Taoist Longshan looked at his disciples with a smile, feeling much more pleased, nodding slightly as he said with a smile:

"Is everything alright?"

Luo Wentian laughed heartily:

"With Master’s fame resounding in Qing State, how could there be any ignorant fools?"

Everyone beamed with smiles.

During this time, quite a few people ascended the mountain, but most were there to make friends; the scene was entirely different from before. Now the True Martial Sect was bustling, and many previously unrelated powers sought to curry favor.

"That’s good."

Taoist Longshan’s eyes carried a smile, the prosperity of the True Martial Sect being his greatest wish.

Now that he had entered the Celestial Human Realm, he finally led the True Martial Sect to a new height, but what worried him was that a few of his disciples’ cultivation wasn’t enough to support the scene.

Up until now, only Jiang Baishan had reached the Gang Essence Realm.

It’s not that these disciples were lacking; they were just too young. Given another ten years, there could be several more in the Gang Essence Realm beneath his tutelage.

Thinking this,

Taoist Longshan slowly said:

"This time, upon descending the mountain, I acquired some wonderful treasures."

Everyone’s spirits were invigorated.
