After cultivating immortality, she devoted herself to becoming an ancestor

Chapter 105 People and Wealth

But the Dragon King said, "It's not very useful. That sparrow said she knows the location of a newly formed teleportation portal."

"I didn't ask which realm it led to, or whether it had fully evolved."

"You should know that long ago, the Taiyuan Realm was the center of this world, and there were teleportation gates from all realms to this place."

"There are all sorts of shapes, from ladder-shaped to tower-shaped to flying island-shaped."

Shen Suiren was slightly taken aback and hurriedly sent a message to her master, telling him that she must keep an eye on Que Yi and save her life.

Wait a minute, Lianqiao must know the details too, quickly make a note to remind her.

"Why haven't we noticed a single clue about the new boundary gate?" A group of Nascent Soul cultivators were somewhat bewildered upon receiving the news.

After the complete closure of the boundary, all parties tried their best to find the original teleportation gate, but all they found were remnants.

Without higher-level array masters and array-setting materials, the Nascent Soul cultivators could not rebuild the interdimensional portal. Most importantly, they could not find a detailed map to locate other realms.

At this moment, Zhu Kuang Zhenjun could no longer try to distance himself from anything: "Fellow Daoists, if Sparrow One can hide on a Core Formation body, then Sparrow Two and Sparrow Three can probably do the same."

I suggested that the Core Formation disciples remain in the main hall until the Dragon King conducts another inspection.

The group looked at each other and nodded: "That's fine."

However, the female Rakshasa Sifan Zhenjun of the Asura Sect laughed and said, "Shouldn't you also keep an eye on your five Core Formation disciples outside the gate?"

Zhu Kuang naturally did not object, "That's right, once all the sixth and seventh rank demons have come out, let the five of them enter the hall."

After some discussion, they quickly arranged their respective tasks. Then, the eighth and ninth-rank demon kings came and said they wanted to pay their respects to the Dragon King.

The Nascent Soul cultivators: They really know how to pick up bargains.

Little did they know that it was the Little Fox King and Si Shi who, upon hearing the Dragon King's complaints, decided to curry favor with these demon kings and pass on a message, which led to this whole affair.

A moment later, after Shen Suiren and the Dragon King had reached an agreement, the Nascent Soul cultivators were allowed to enter the third floor of the Dragon Palace for a face-to-face meeting.

His hurried departure made the hearts of all the Core Formation cultivators in the hall pound with anxiety.

As Lianqiao approached the gate, she couldn't help but turn her head to look at the third floor. What were her martial uncles doing? They hadn't even glanced at their disciples.

And what about the previous batch of Nascent Soul cultivators? Where did the Dragon King send them to search for treasure? Why haven't they appeared yet? Something must have gone wrong.

Otherwise, Que Yi, who was trapped in the small square in front of the gate, would not have been left with only a Core Formation cultivator as a guard.

She waited patiently for the lightning shield to open the barrier, but the other party bowed and said, "Fellow Daoists, the True Lords have spoken, so we are suspending the login for spiritual herbs. We have a new mission."

As he spoke, he and the other three, including Fan Liyue, stepped through the gate.

With a creak, the gates of the Dragon Palace closed.

Shen Suiren stood on the deck, gazing at the Dragon Palace in the distance, and asked, "Do you wish to go to the Xuanhuang Realm?"

The three little fox kings shook their heads in unison inside the spirit beast bracelet, "We don't want to before we transform, and we'll still try to live a life of hiding even after we transform."

"Alas, we missed the right time..." In the past, other great demon kings commanded the wind and rain, but when it was their turn to transform, bang bang bang, the realm teleportation had to be restarted, and even higher-level demon kings were about to descend to the mortal realm.

Shen Suiren nodded: "We must be careful. Eighth or ninth level, Nascent Soul cultivators may be able to fight against Deity Transformation cultivators, but in the eyes of Body Integration or Mahayana cultivators, they are probably no different from minor Qi Refining cultivators."

I hope my grandmaster and uncles won't immediately encounter the Mahayana stage, and that everything will be peaceful.

Just like in her previous life, she rarely encountered Nascent Soul cultivators.

But this is impossible. In another realm, True Monarch Cen Che and others were summoned by Mahayana cultivators today.

The Great Ascension Daoist Lord of the Sword Sect, dressed in a Daoist robe and carrying a sword, sat in the hall as if he were one with his surroundings, with no spiritual energy around him, and his aura was as simple and pure as that of a newborn baby.

Lord Lianyu preferred to be straightforward: "I have already inspected your teleportation location, and there are only a few traces of the array remaining. It will be difficult for you to activate it again on your own."

"The Taiyuan Realm has been out of contact for many years. Occasionally, those who shattered the void to come to the Spirit Realm would quickly fall silent."

"The reason for this is that Zhi Te is no longer behind us, and the Sword Sect has always been short of people and resources."

"Therefore, as the Supreme Elder of the Sword Sect, I sincerely invite you to join the Sword Sect and assist you in traveling between the two realms."

To put it nicely, they're probably taking us to the Taiyuan Realm to plunder some supplies.

The Nascent Soul cultivators quickly exchanged glances. Elder Wo Xiang noticed that someone was interested and spoke first: "Dao Lord, could you give us some time to discuss this?"

“Of course, fifteen minutes.” Lian Yu was very generous.

"Dao Lord, may we demon cultivators join?" The fire qilin asked, echoing the thoughts of some of the demon cultivators present. This Dao Lord clearly intended to control the interdimensional teleportation gate.

If they, as demon cultivators, were sent back, wouldn't they suffer a huge loss? What if someone had ulterior motives before sending them away and turned them into materials? It would be a complete waste of their cultivation.

The cultivators' eyes showed admiration. As expected of the Great Elder of the Demon Court, his insight was first-rate. But should they accept?

Lord Lianyu thought it over and agreed, but with one condition: "Do you agree to enter into a spirit beast contract?"

The demon kings all shook their heads. The fire qilin said, "In ancient times, some demon cultivators could become disciples of human cultivators. We can only be their disciples."

"Then there is only one choice: return to the Taiyuan Realm." Lord Lianyu firmly believed that those who are not of our kind will surely have different intentions.

The fire unicorn gave the fox clan chief a meaningful look, urging her to speak up and change the situation, but the latter shook her head and remained silent, because she wanted to go back to her large fox clan.

She'd rather be the head of a chicken than the tail of a phoenix; after all, she was a great demon king in the Taiyuan Realm.

"Elder, you are so confused. What spirit realm? I've never heard of it."

"Now that we have arrived in this realm, we should go to the Demon Court." As soon as Ao Chen finished speaking, he heard the laughter of the Mahayana cultivator in front of him.

Everyone felt their backs were about to bend under the weight, and their bodies and minds trembled with the laughter.

In an instant, Ao Chen was forced to lie face down by the high-level pressure, and several bones in his body cracked and broke.

Lianyu Daojun's light snort resonated in everyone's hearts: "A mere ninth-rank cultivator dares to clamor for the Demon Court. Before you can even leave human territory, you'll be skinned alive."

Guards, send these demons back to the land devoid of spirits for safekeeping.

"I'll throw this dragon into the Sword Forest so the Nascent Soul disciples can practice their skills."

Despite the oppressive aura, the Fire Qilin hurriedly pleaded, "Dao Lord, please calm down. Ao Chen has always been brainless. Please forgive him this time."

He looked at the cultivator with pleading eyes, and Elder Wo Xiang said helplessly, "Daoist, it is not easy to cultivate to the ninth level in the Taiyuan Realm nowadays. One must endure thirty-six lightning tribulations."

Furthermore, Ao Chen's injuries have not yet fully healed, so please be lenient.

Lianyu Daojun asked with a smile, "In what capacity do you plead for me?"

"How about becoming a nominal disciple?" Elder Wo Xiang was already all alone. The alliance would choose another deacon elder after he left, so joining the Sword Sect was not out of the question.

Lianyu Daojun gestured towards Cen Che and the others with his chin: "Where are they?"

"If you, senior, would bestow upon me a limb regeneration pill, I would gladly accept." Si Yu wished for her daughter to recover completely.

Lian Zi also stated, "This junior is willing."

Some cultivators from the Cangyuan Sect and the alliance also followed suit.

Then, several more people with few family burdens accepted the invitation, bringing the total to twenty-four cultivators, more than half of whom agreed.

Cen Che glanced around and noticed that among those who hadn't responded to him, demonic cultivators actually made up the majority.

He stepped forward: "Junior Cen Che, I would like to ask Daoist Master a question, if that is permissible?"

"You have a single ice spirit root, and I've heard you're quite skilled in swordsmanship. I approve." Daoist Lianyu valued talent; otherwise, he wouldn't have recruited them.

Cen Che looked directly at him and asked, "After the teleportation gate reopens, will you and the Sword Sect protect the people of Taiyuan?"

Many sword cultivators around him looked at him; he was someone who cared about the world and was suitable to be a sword cultivator.

"Yes, but the protection won't last long. Once the Sword Sect profits in the Taiyuan Realm, others will follow suit. Especially the Taiyuan Sect, which originated from your Taiyuan Realm. You can inquire about this sect later."

After joining my Sword Sect, you will become inner disciples and are free to travel around.

You should know that the secrets of the cultivation world can never be kept from those in higher positions. "Lord Lianyu was quite outspoken.

Upon receiving the answer, Cen Che immediately bowed and said, "Thank you, Daoist Master..."

As soon as he opened his mouth, a clear bell rang out. Not only did Daoist Lianyu suddenly stand up and look into the distance, but the other sword cultivators did the same.

A message arrived directly in front of him via a flying sword. Upon opening it, he heard: "Elder, Daoist Yuan Geng from the Dao Seeking Sect has come to visit. The Sect Master has personally greeted him with his entourage."

"Hurry and go greet the guests with me." Lianyu Daojun's figure flashed and he was already outside the hall, with the sword cultivators following closely behind.

In the blink of an eye, the entire flower hall was filled only with cultivators and demon kings from the Taiyuan Realm.

But they would never step out the door, lest they be driven back by some kind of formation.

At this moment, everyone secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Fox Clan Chief Hu Xi saw the Great Elder feeding Ao Chen medicine, but the Flood Dragon Clan did not move at all, and he despised them in his heart.

Then Ao Chen asked weakly, "Cen Che, do you want to join the Sword Sect?"

"It's hard to say." Cen Che had other reasons. Since he arrived in this spirit realm, the spirit-finding talisman on his natal sword had been flashing on and off.

It was only hidden during the Spirit Forbidden period, but today, as soon as it left the Spirit Forbidden Valley, it started flashing non-stop again.

He suspected that his eldest disciple, Yuanbei, who had been missing for many years, was in the spirit world.

"Ao Chen, I'm afraid the relationship between human cultivators in the Spirit Realm and the demon race is just so-so." Cen Che left it at that.

After Ao Chen's bones were set, he still asked the other cultivators, "What about you? Chi Xin, you are a true sword cultivator."

"Ao Chen, don't try to stir up trouble if you're injured," Gui Yue mocked him.

Master Huaishan firmly replied, "Amitabha, this humble monk will seek out a Buddhist temple."

“I’ll go with Cen Che.” Chi Xin felt that these people and demons were all cunning, so it was better to follow Cen Che, who was always reliable.

The other Nascent Soul cultivators mostly just laughed it off, without directly stating their thoughts.

Ao Qi then spoke up: "Actually, we have another option."

"What choice?" Ao Chen glanced at him sideways. Ever since he threw the young dragon into the formation, he shouldn't expect him to give him a kind look.

The other demons also looked at Ao Qi, not wanting to be imprisoned and hoping he truly had a way to achieve both fame and fortune.

Ao Qi enjoyed the attention. He raised an eyebrow and pulled out a handful of spirit stones: "Daojun said that he needs people and wealth, which must be this wealth."

We rented a cave dwelling from the Sword Sect and cultivated to the tenth level.

Several cultivators scoffed at this. Was advancing in rank really that easy? But it was still a viable option, depending on whether the Sword Sect would allow it.

They were communicating in twos and threes when they saw a disciple of the Sword Sect arrive with a person on a flying sword.

Before the flight could stop, the man leaped down and rushed in, sliding to his knees before Cen Che, who had run to the door: "Master!"

“I knew you would be alright.” Cen Che’s raised hand trembled slightly.

"Yuanbei!"

"Later stage of Nascent Soul!"

"How old is he? Does the spirit world really nurture people like this?"

"Around eighty years old, he'll reach the Yuan Dynasty. Tsk tsk tsk, he'll probably become a deity at a hundred, right?"

"Quiet down, quiet down, make room for them, master and apprentice, to talk."

Everyone looked at each other and headed towards the window, but Yuanbei said, "Seniors, there's no need for that. Besides picking up my master, I've also come to invite you all to visit the Daoist Sect."

Elder Yuan Chang was discussing the possibility of cooperation between the two sects with Daoist Lian Yu.

Ghost Moon spoke coolly: "Even if we cooperate again, we are not the butcher's knife."

"But it's good that you're going with your master; at least you won't fool everyone, right, Luo Heng?"

Luo Heng nodded emphatically, always holding the Ghost Moon in his hands: "Agreed."

"His teacher was like a father to him; Yuanbei was closer to Cen Che than his own son."

Guiyue then chimed in, "So, you, my dear disciple, tell your master which realm this is."

There's no mention of a Spirit Realm in the records of our Taiyuan Realm.

“Yes, let’s talk about how your Elder Yuan knew we were in the Sword Sect,” Ao Chen interjected.

"Ao Chen, shut up if you can't speak properly." The Fire Qilin was furious. Why do you care so much? Can't they have spies?

Yuanbei lowered his head and chuckled as he transmitted his voice: "Master, Jiaolong Ao Chen is still not much better at being straightforward."

Cen Che gently patted his head and pulled him to sit beside him. They placed some local spirit fruits on a tea table. "You naughty boy, tell everyone about the spirit world."

Seeing this, the others also took their seats.

Yuanbei coughed lightly. He was already a Yuanhou cultivator, but his master still treated him like a child. "The so-called Spirit Realm is the original Xuanhuang Realm."

"Before the various factions from the Taiyuan Realm moved here, they had already joined forces to clear out a large area of ​​land."

"After they moved in, they launched a powerful attack, subduing all the forces, big and small, in the Xuanhuang Realm, so that they dared not challenge their might."

"Then the Taiyuan Sect was established, which supported the cultivators of the Great Wilderness Realm in defeating its beast tide, enabling the Taiyuan Dragon Clan to lead the demons to successfully settle in the Great Wilderness."

"Furthermore, they successively built portal teleportation arrays leading to the Starry Sky Realm, the Mountain Realm, the Cloud Palace Realm, and the Hidden Water Realm, making this realm a new teleportation hub. For a time, it was unparalleled in its power, and the Xuanhuang Realm was renamed the Spirit Realm."

"Heh, heh heh, heh heh heh..." Ghost Moon chuckled sarcastically.

Elder Wo Xiang gradually lost his composure: "Ha, then what are we? They moved away the accumulated treasures of the Taiyuan Realm, leaving behind a mess."

Their sins in their past lives have resulted in us, the descendants, being punished by heaven with dozens of lightning bolts even when we are just infants.

The expressions on everyone's faces varied, but deep down they all disliked the Taiyuan Sect.

"I don't believe it. How can a sect that's pieced together from multiple sects prosper for 100,000 years?" Ao Chen couldn't help but blurt out.

Yuanbei nodded and distributed jade slips to everyone through his storage ring: "Please read carefully and refrain from making any comments."

That means it can transmit sound, Ao Chen hummed twice.

Yuanbei didn't even glance at the silly dragon, and instead transmitted his voice to his master: "How have you been these past few years?"

"Very good, I've also found you a junior sister with a single water elemental root. She's just as hardworking as you."

Originally, I had my eye on another child, but her spiritual roots were not suitable for my teaching.

"I reluctantly handed her over to you, Uncle Zhu Kuang, but that little girl ended up taking a Core Formation cultivator as her master." Cen Che felt regretful about not accepting Sui Chu as his disciple.

Yuanbei's interest was immediately piqued: "What are their names? What do they like? What is their cultivation level?"

“Luo Ning, Sui Chu…” As Cen Che began to speak to his eldest disciple, Sui Chu in the Taiyuan Realm kept scratching his ears.

"I feel like someone's been talking about me all along." Shen Suiren really felt that way.

"It's just an illusion. You've been struck by lightning too many times, and your ears are itchy." Luo Ning stared at the Dragon Palace gate, and as soon as it opened, he jumped up.

Shen Suiren also looked around and saw the demon kings come out first, followed by his grandmaster and the others with slightly gloomy expressions.

She quickly sent a telepathic message: "Grandmaster, how's the teleportation going?"
