Chapter 1082: 990 True Immortal Middle Stage

Time flies; fifty thousand years have passed.

Myriad Beasts Island, where ancient trees tower into the sky, is home to numerous mystical birds and beasts.

At dawn, in the northwest corner of the island, stands a ten-acre cyan courtyard with a three-story green pavilion and a cyan stone pavilion inside. Hung above the door of the pavilion is a plaque inscribed with three golden characters: "Green Hawk Pavilion."

The door opened, and a handsome young man in a blue robe stepped out.

"I’ve finally ascended to the Foundation Establishment Late Stage. This time, in the Profound Hawk Peak’s trial, I must secure a good ranking."

The blue-robed youth murmured to himself.

Wang Yunhao, a Sect-Born Disciple of the Myriad Beasts Sect, comes from a lineage where his ancestors have served as disciples of the sect for five generations. The sect, established over fifty thousand years ago, has nurtured a number of True Immortals over the years. Its growing population of disciples now exceeds over a hundred thousand.

The Myriad Beasts Sect consists of seventy-two Outer Peaks and thirty-six Inner Peaks. Generally, disciples below the Divinity Transformation Stage belong to the Outer Peaks, while those between the Divinity Transformation Stage and True Immortal Realm reside in the Inner Peaks.

Each peak has a Peak Master responsible for overseeing and guiding the disciples under their jurisdiction. When a disciple is meritorious, their peak’s leadership, family, and elders will also be rewarded. Conversely, any disgrace affects everyone within the same faction—shared glory or shared loss.

Wang Yunhao grew up on Myriad Beasts Island; for him, the Myriad Beasts Sect is not just his sect but his home. His sense of belonging to the sect runs deep.

Periodically, the Myriad Beasts Sect holds grand ceremonies to recruit new disciples, selecting talents from affiliated forces as fresh blood. Beyond this, Shen Lang invested heavily in seeking help from the Ziyang Sect to construct a Flying Immortal Platform directly on Myriad Beasts Island.

The sect boasts a comprehensive disciple cultivation system, with regular competitions held across its 108 peaks. Outstanding performers receive rewards, and every ten thousand years, a grand competition is held, which is open to all cultivators below the True Immortal Realm.

Furthermore, if a disciple excels with a specific skill, such as Alchemy, Artifact Refining, Talisman Crafting, Array Setting, Brewing, or Beast Taming, the sect provides focused support and training. Disciples with exceptional talents in these areas are given additional attention.

Similarly, those who make significant contributions become key cultivation targets. However, the most enticing way to gain recognition lies in challenging the Myriad Beasts Tower.

Chu Buyu created a Low Grade Immortal Artifact—Myriad Beasts Tower—infused with countless Spirit Souls of monster beasts and birds ranging from First Rank Monster Beasts to those at the True Immortal Realm.

The tower currently consists of 108 layers; the higher the level, the stronger and more advanced the divine skills and ranks of the illusions conjured. Anyone who successfully conquers all 108 layers can attain high-level status within the sect after passing a rigorous examination.

"Today is Elder Wu’s lecture. I should go early to get a good seat."

Wang Yunhao muttered to himself.

He tapped his green spirit beast pouch hanging at his waist, and, with a crisp bird cry, a green giant eagle with wings spanning over ten feet emerged and landed before him.

This was a Second Rank Early Stage Chasing Wind Eagle gifted to him by his parents upon his ascension to the Foundation Establishment Realm for use as a mode of transportation.

He mounted the Chasing Wind Eagle’s back and whistled.

The eagle flapped its wings lightly, kicking up a gust of wind as it soared into the sky, swiftly picking up speed.

Flying over an expansive grassland, Wang Yunhao saw a group of giant beasts, their bodies covered in blue scales, running across the terrain. Massive green wings sprouted from their backs.

These were Water Qilin Beasts, adept in water and wind divine skills, carrying the bloodline of Kylins. They served as mounts for patrol disciples of the Myriad Beasts Sect.

From above came a loud bird cry; in the distance, a group of enormous, peculiar birds appeared on the horizon.

These strange birds had ape-like claws, flattened bodies, and flew swiftly.

Ape Vultures, inheriting the bloodline of Nine Heavens Profound Hawks, served as mounts for the Executive Hall disciples.

Myriad Beasts Sect governs numerous halls, and disciples from different hall factions use distinct spirit beasts, birds, and insects for transportation, reflecting the sect’s overall prowess.

An hour later, the Chasing Wind Eagle descended above a hundred-thousand-acre Green Stone Plaza. At the plaza’s center stood a colossal circular platform, spanning several hundred feet, with a green meditation cushion placed atop.

Surrounding the platform, numerous green meditation cushions were arranged, where thousands of Myriad Beasts Sect cultivators sat. Those with higher cultivation levels occupied closer positions.

The Chasing Wind Eagle landed on the ground, and Wang Yunhao dismounted, storing the eagle back into his spirit beast pouch. He found an empty seat and sat down.

"Elder Liu’s lecture covered the Artifact Refining Techniques. I wonder what Elder Wu will be discussing today."

"I heard Elder Wu’s Life-Bound Spirit Beast has already transformed into human form. It might be about Insect Repelling and Beast Taming Techniques!"

"Hard to say; perhaps it’s guidance on cultivation."

······

The cultivators engaged in spirited discussions, expressing their views.

High-ranking cultivators of the Myriad Beasts Sect periodically hold lectures. These lecturers are at least of the Divinity Transformation Stage. Such talks are one of the sect’s benefits and also serve as a method for talent selection.

Half an hour later, the venue filled with over ten thousand cultivators, ranging from the Qi Refinement Realm to the Nascent Soul Stage.

A thunderous beast roar resonated through the plaza as a streak of blue light appeared from the horizon and quickly flashed above the plaza.

The light dissipated, revealing a colossal Water Qilin Beast atop which stood a fair-faced youth dressed in a green outfit.

Wu Sen, at the Late Divinity Transformation Stage, was a Sect-Born Disciple of the Myriad Beasts Sect.

Disciples, including Wang Yunhao, quickly stood up, bowed, and greeted in unison: "Greetings, Elder Wu."

Wu Sen nodded as his Water Qilin Beast descended onto the circular platform, where he seated himself on the green meditation cushion. Only then dared the disciples resume their seats.

"The founding patriarch of our sect, Myriad Beasts Immortal, was an Immortal Pill Alchemist. As for me, I only have superficial knowledge of alchemy. Today, I will be discussing Alchemy Techniques with you."

Wu Sen’s voice was not loud, yet it echoed throughout the Green Stone Plaza.

Wang Yunhao and the disciples held their breath, listening intently, fearful of missing anything.

The founding patriarch of Myriad Beasts Sect was Shen Long, revered as Myriad Beasts Immortal by True Immortals across the world.

Wu Sen began by explaining the principles of alchemy before delving into the refinement of First Rank Elixirs. Occasionally, he posed questions and helped resolve alchemical dilemmas faced by some disciples.

Myriad Beasts Peak, Myriad Beasts Garden.

The door to a practice room opened, and Shen Long emerged, his face alight with joy.

His aura had grown significantly stronger; he had now ascended to the True Immortal Middle Stage.

Shen Long had cultivated the Beast Immortal Scripture to the fourteenth layer, grasping new divine skills, though he had only scratched the surface of the Fire Law and the Strength Law.

Across the vast Glazed Sea Domain, True Immortals capable of cultivating laws to a minor level were as rare as phoenix feathers—a formidable challenge for even experienced cultivators.

As Shen Long knew, most True Immortals who achieved minor mastery in laws relied on external aids such as Dao Pills, Immortal Talismans, Immortal Wine, Immortal Artifacts, or Immortal Arrays.

Not yet owning such resources, Shen Long improved his alchemy proficiency through relentless practice, though he still couldn’t refine Dao Pills.

The Qinglian True Flame remains at the Eighth Rank, unable to advance to Immortal Flame. To ascend, it must devour other Immortal Flames as nourishment.

Shen Long had been dispatching people to search for First Rank Immortal Flame but had yet to receive any leads.

He stepped out and arrived at a tranquil green-tiled courtyard, where Chu Buyu and Shen Lang were seated in a green stone pavilion. Both had progressed to the True Immortal Middle Stage.
