Chapter 188: True Immortal Descendant!
“Descendants of True Immortals…”
“So that’s how the mortals of the Immortal Realm all came to be.”
“But it seems if these mortal tribes fail to produce another True Immortal within a few generations, they’ll all perish sooner or later.”
The Immortal Realm, the Lu Clan Ground.
The young Lu Qingyang looked at the semicircular glass Dharma canopy in the sky.
This was the Spirit-Gathering Formation their clan’s Great Vehicle had commissioned a True Immortal to refine.
The reason this formation required a True Immortal to refine it was because it was no ordinary Spirit-Gathering Formation.
After all, the Immortal Realm only had Immortal Spirit power. Once absorbed by an Immortal, it would convert into Immortal power within the body.
But how could an ordinary mortal possibly withstand Immortal power?
Thus, they had no choice but to seek out a True Immortal Great Cultivator to refine this special Spirit-Gathering Formation.
By isolating Immortal Spirit power, it condensed ordinary spiritual power on its own for cultivation and daily life.
Whatever. For now, I only need to steadily walk through the Nine Realms.
This time, as long as I don’t go to that Ancient Temple and stay safely within the clan, there shouldn’t be any unexpected incidents.
Lu Qingyang murmured to himself, settling on his early goals.
But very quickly, he realized he had been far too naive.
Ten years later, Lu Qingyang, whose cultivation had barely stepped into peak Golden Core, could not help but curse in a low voice.
“This Immortal Realm… is way too fucking poor!”
Yes. Ever since arriving, Lu Qingyang’s most direct impression was that it was too poor.
The Lu Clan he belonged to was even poorer than some Great Vehicle sects in the Prison Dragon Realm!
Those Clansmen who had stepped into Nascent Soul could at least briefly go out and take odd jobs.
Earn a bit of cultivation resources.
But someone like him, who couldn’t yet go out to work, could basically only rely on the clan’s support.
And the clan’s support really made cultivation difficult.
Even breaking through Golden Core was somewhat strenuous.
Sigh. Whatever. Who told me to be weak?
The Immortal Realm’s resources are actually not few at all.
After so many years, how many ascended cultivators, how many Immortals have died in the Immortal Realm? Countless ruins and Secret Realms.
It’s just that with my current strength, I simply have no fortune to enjoy them.
Lu Qingyang sighed and continued burying himself in cultivation.
He knew the only thing he could do right now was cultivate.
And time quickly arrived three years later.
Three years later, he stepped into Nascent Soul as promised.
Reaching sync with the Simulation’s progress.
That very year, he could finally step outside the Clan Ground briefly!
…
“Hurry, hurry! All of you, move it!”
“Steward Wu said this Immortal Beast Stable was specially reserved for our Lu Clan.”
“If not for the Patriarch’s sake, this job would’ve been snatched up by other Great Vehicle families long ago!”
In the Lu Clan Ground, a Great Vehicle cultivator with a deep aura was smugly shouting at a crowd of Lu Clansmen.
Before him, hundreds of Lu Clansmen, ranging from Nascent Soul to Tribulation Crossing, all stood with lowered heads and meek expressions.
Lu Qingyang was naturally among them.
But regarding this clan Patriarch’s words, he felt somewhat puzzled.
Does a stable for raising Immortal Beasts need this many cultivators to tend to it?
Lu Qingyang couldn’t understand, but he knew that going this time would bring him his first fortuitous opportunity in the Return to True.
That Stone Stele isn’t exactly a supreme treasure, but it’s at least worth some spirit stones.
So, this trip is necessary.
Otherwise, relying only on bitter cultivation, who knows when I’d ever ascend to Immortality.
As Lu Qingyang thought this, the clan Patriarch before him had already given the order.
The assembled Clansmen boarded a specially crafted Dharma Ship and sped off into the distance.
The moment they flew out of the Clan Ground’s range.
Lu Qingyang felt a dense Immortal might pressing down on him from the air.
Such powerful Immortal might…
So this is the Immortal Realm’s Immortal Spirit power?
Even without absorbing it, it presses down so hard it’s unbearable.
…
Lu Qingyang sighed in amazement. This trip had truly broadened his horizons.
Fortunately, an elder beside him had intervened to slightly dissolve it, preventing any ill effects.
Seeing this, Lu Qingyang politely cupped his fists and gave thanks.
“Thank you, Second Uncle.”
“Mm, no need for courtesy. Once we enter the Wu family, it’ll be fine. The Wu family also has a formation that can isolate part of the Immortal might.”
The elder said with a smile.
“Mm.”
Lu Qingyang nodded.
Then he took the opportunity to voice his confusion.
“Second Uncle, just how big is the Wu family Immortal clan’s Immortal Beast Stable?”
“That it needs so many of us from the clan to clean it up.”
Hearing this, the elder was slightly stunned, then smiled and said.
“Perhaps you haven’t been to Immortal Wu’s home before?”
“No, Second Uncle. This is my first time leaving the Clan Ground.”
“No wonder then…”
“This Wu family Patriarch is a Nine-Turn True Immortal, just one step away from Human Immortal.”
“He made his name long ago. The family is prosperous, the clan territory vast.”
“As for this Immortal Beast Stable…”
At this, the elder paused for a moment, as if recalling.
Lu Qingyang saw many meanings in his eyes.
Not just envy, but mostly shock.
After a long while, his clan elder slowly spoke.
“As for this Immortal Beast Stable, it’s called a stable, but it’s actually a complete Small Thousand World.”
“Inside, it raises all the Spirit Beasts and Immortal Beasts of the entire Wu family.”
“Of course, those Immortal Beasts only have Immortal Beast bloodlines. Their strength hasn’t reached the True Immortal level.”
Hearing this, the expression on Lu Qingyang’s face gradually became the same as his clan elder’s.
That was shock!
Using a Small Thousand World with a complete Heavenly Dao just to raise Spirit Beasts!
What kind of grand display was this!
After all, in reality, although the Chaotian Sect had a complete Small Thousand World.
Due to the Small Thousand World’s Heavenly Dao, the Chaotian Sect had never been able to develop that world on a large scale.
They could only select useful disciples and materials from it.
They simply could not, and dared not, alter the rules and environment of the Small Thousand World on a large scale.
Otherwise, they would surely suffer backlash from the Small Thousand World’s Heavenly Dao.
“Then isn’t the Wu family afraid of backlash from the Small Thousand World’s Heavenly Dao? Don’t all Small Thousand World Heavenly Daos have backers behind them?”
Lu Qingyang exclaimed, unable to help but question.
At these words, the Lu Clan elder looked at him with a bit more regard.
“You actually know quite a lot.”
“You’re not wrong. The Heavenly Dao of a Small Thousand World has a backer. Ordinary people can’t dispose of it as they please.”
“However…”
At this, the Lu Clan elder paused once again.
The same shocked expression appeared on his face once more.
“However what, Second Uncle! Hurry and say it!”
Lu Qingyang was anxious, eager to jump up and demand the answer.
Only then did the Lu Clan elder slowly utter a sentence.
“However, the Small Thousand World’s Heavenly Dao in that world is held by this Wu family’s ancestor!”
“What?!”
Lu Qingyang was stunned.
His head buzzed, nearly felled by that sentence.
A Small Thousand World’s Heavenly Dao, held by this family’s ancestor?
There were still people who could cultivate themselves into a Heavenly Dao?
“Yeah. Instead of properly being a Nine-Turn Heavenly Immortal, he dispersed his cultivation to become a Heavenly Dao.”
“It’s said at the time, this matter caused quite a stir.”
