Chapter 1026 - 1024, Immortal Emperor

Chapter 1026: 1024, Immortal Emperor

"Junior Sister Luo! Good news! The Sect Leader has exited seclusion! The Sect Leader has successfully broken through to the Immortal Emperor stage. Our Liangyi Sect now has two Immortal Emperors!" Luo Shu had just stepped out of her room when she saw Fang Qing running over with an excited expression.

Six months ago, Lu Hanmo had already broken through to the Immortal Emperor stage. Because it wasn’t yet time for the Immortal Ship to arrive at the Earth Realm, and also because the members of Liangyi Sect needed to improve their strength, they had stayed within the sect this entire time.

After over a year of seclusion, the strength of the Liangyi Sect disciples had improved significantly. Those whose cultivation levels were below Senior Immortal had almost all advanced to Senior Immortal Level, while the number of disciples at the Immortal Monarch Level had increased from 111 to 332.

The disciples of each pavilion had also made great progress in areas such as Formation, Alchemy, Talisman Crafting, and Artifact Refining. As for Luo Shu, after over a year of cultivating, she had reached the Immortal Monarch Late Stage Peak, merely one step away from advancing to the Immortal Emperor stage—she was only missing the right opportune moment.

"This is truly great news! Senior Sister Fang, let’s go see him." Luo Shu smiled and walked toward the main peak alongside Fang Qing. That the Sect Leader could break through to Immortal Emperor had already been within her and Lu Hanmo’s expectations. The Sect Leader had already been at the Immortal Monarch Late Stage, but due to his unstable state of mind, he had struggled to break through.

Using the remaining Star Origin Fruits, she had refined Star Essence Pills, which had helped resolve the Sect Leader’s state-of-mind issues. Once that was resolved, his cultivation naturally soared, and breaking through to Immortal Emperor was no longer a difficult task.

As they passed the square, they saw Lu Hanmo instructing the disciples in martial techniques. Luo Shu waved to Lu Hanmo with a smile.

Lu Hanmo curved his lips slightly and walked over. "Shushu." Training these disciples had made him feel as though he had returned to the days of training warriors.

"Hanmo, did you hear that the Sect Leader has broken through to Immortal Emperor?" Luo Shu asked with a smile.

Lu Hanmo nodded with a smile. "I just heard about it." He had seen Fang Qing run off to notify Shushu, so he simply waited here for them to come over so they could go together.

"Now that the Sect Leader has reached the Immortal Emperor level, we can leave as well." Luo Shu said. Calculating the time, there was at most a month before the Immortal Ship arrived at the Earth Realm.

"You’re planning to leave the sect?" Fang Qing asked in surprise after hearing Luo Shu’s words. The current overall strength of the sect wasn’t inferior to the Top Ten Sects—of course, this comparison was against the Top Ten Sects before they had gone into seclusion. After over a year, the strength of the Top Ten Sects had surely improved greatly as well.

Luo Shu nodded. "We plan to go to the Heavenly Realm."

"Oh right! There’s less than a month left until the selection competition for the Heavenly Realm." Fang Qing finally remembered. "But what about our sect? Can we make it in time for the selection competition?" Going to the Heavenly Realm was every cultivator’s dream in the Earth Realm. However, even if the Liangyi Sect were to reopen now, it didn’t seem like there would be enough time.

The three of them continued talking as they headed toward Lin Jue’s quarters.

"Congratulations to the Sect Leader! This reopening of our Liangyi Sect will undoubtedly showcase our sect to all sects in the Earth Realm!" Elder Mu said, his voice full of excitement. He had been waiting for this day for over a year.

"Yes, with two Immortal Emperors in our Liangyi Sect, even the Sky Water Sect wouldn’t dare to do anything to us," Elder He said joyfully. He was certain that their Sect Leader was the fourth Immortal Emperor in the Earth Realm. Advancing to Immortal Emperor wasn’t just about having dense Immortal Spirit Energy; one also needed to enhance their state of mind before making the breakthrough. Otherwise, the Earth Realm wouldn’t only have the Sky Water Sect’s Sect Leader Que Penghai and the Great Mahayana Island’s Sect Leader Jun Wuheng as its Immortal Emperors.

Although the sect had handed over the Star Origin Fruit obtained earlier by Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo to the Sect Management Association, even refining it into Star Essence Pills was only a drop in the ocean given the vast number of sects—it wasn’t enough to go around at all.

"Sect Leader! Junior Brother Lu and Junior Sister Luo have arrived," Fang Qing’s slightly excited voice called from outside.

"Come in!" Lin Jue said warmly. He knew that everything he and the Liangyi Sect had achieved today was thanks to Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo, and he was deeply grateful to them.

The three of them entered the hall and saw that the elders of each pavilion were already present.

"Congratulations to the Sect Leader on advancing to Immortal Emperor!" The three stepped forward and saluted Lin Jue.

"This wouldn’t have been possible without your efforts. If not for your Star Essence Pills, how could I have advanced to Immortal Emperor so smoothly?" Lin Jue said with a smile. Even though the Star Origin Fruit had been handed over to the Sect Management Association, the Liangyi Sect wouldn’t have received even a single Star Essence Pill without their contributions.

"Sect Leader, now that you’ve reached Immortal Emperor, when do you plan to reopen the sect?" Luo Shu asked. Reopening the sect was undoubtedly the most eagerly anticipated event for the elders and disciples of the Liangyi Sect.

"The elders and I just discussed it—we plan to reopen the sect early tomorrow morning," Lin Jue said. He knew that Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo wanted to participate in the selection competition for the Heavenly Realm, and any further delay would leave them pressed for time.

"Reopening the sect just in time for the selection competition—there’s a tough battle to fight before that," Elder He said with a smile. He wasn’t worried about the sect losing. Even if the Star Origin Fruit handed over to the association had been refined into Star Essence Pills, no sect could match Liangyi Sect, which now boasted two Immortal Emperors.

"I’m full of confidence for this reopening. Whoever dares to provoke us will learn the strength of the Liangyi Sect!" Elder Yan said, laughing. The current strength of their sect had exceeded his expectations.

"Yes, we’ll make them understand that the Liangyi Sect is no longer the insignificant third-rate sect they once bullied."

"I can’t wait for tomorrow to come!"

"I’ll go issue a declaration to inform all sects that the Liangyi Sect will reopen tomorrow at dawn."

"I’ll go inform the disciples—they’re sure to cheer when they hear this news!" Everyone began delegating tasks, their faces filled with excitement and anticipation.

Que Penghai retreated from cultivation, opened his eyes, and stood up to walk outside. Over the past year, he had initially kept people monitoring Liangyi Sect, but as time passed, he had gradually abandoned this effort, believing that Liangyi Sect had genuinely entered seclusion.

Elder Guo happened to arrive to find Que Penghai and saw him exiting the training room. He stepped forward and said, "Sect Leader! The twenty disciples selected for this year’s competition are ready. Please come to the Martial Arts Arena to review them."

"Mm," Que Penghai nodded slightly and walked alongside Elder Guo toward the Martial Arts Arena. This selection competition was no small matter for any sect and had to be treated with the utmost seriousness.

"Sect Leader, I have something to report," said an elder who walked up before they could reach the Martial Arts Arena.

"Speak," Que Penghai replied indifferently.

"I just received news that the Liangyi Sect will reopen tomorrow at dawn," the elder said quickly.

"What?!" Que Penghai and Elder Guo both froze. They had assumed that the Liangyi Sect would take at least five to ten years, or even longer, to reopen. They hadn’t expected it to happen so soon.

"The Liangyi Sect has already issued a declaration, announcing that they’ll reopen tomorrow at Chen Time," the elder explained in detail.

Que Penghai furrowed his brows and, after a long moment, said, "Elder Guo, Elder Shin, you two will lead 300 elite disciples to the Liangyi Sect. This time, you must capture those two people." He wasn’t concerned about the strength of the Liangyi Sect—after all, how could their strength have grown significantly in just over a year? This high-profile reopening of the Liangyi Sect might very well lead to its annihilation in the next instant.

"Understood!" Elder Guo and Elder Shin replied. They knew exactly who the Sect Leader was referring to.
