Invincible!

Chapter 231 Duties
The moment the words "Mysterious Immortal" were uttered, not only Lu Linyuan but also Xuan Ling turned their heads slightly.

Over the past hundreds of thousands of years, the Great Luo Immortal Sect has produced several Celestial Immortals, including Great Luo, Candle Illumination, Netherworld, and Primordial Chaos, each of whom can be considered a figure capable of shaking up the landscape of the True Immortal World.

But, Xuanxian...

That is a person with great abilities who has refined the chaotic yin and yang energies, comprehended the mysteries of the five elements, and can create something from nothing.

Ordinary natural treasures, such as true gold from the sun, mysterious crystal from the moon, and the five innate elements, can be condensed in the blink of an eye.

Therefore, the Xuanxian is also known as the Creation Xuanxian.

Such figures are extremely rare, not only in the Great Luo Immortal Sect, but throughout the entire recorded history of the True Immortal Great World.

The last one dates back 600,000 years.

Li Xian set his sights on this level...

"hehe."

Lu Linyuan simply smiled and offered a word of encouragement: "Not bad, that's ambitious."

Xuanling didn't dampen his spirits: "I hope I'll have the chance to see that day."

And then nothing happened.

Lu Linyuan directly changed the subject: "I have already informed the Supreme Elder Council that you will achieve the Golden Core at the age of thirty-one... You will become the twelfth Dao Child of my Great Luo Immortal Sect. Each Dao Child's term of office is five Jiazi. During this period, you will receive the sect's full support and training until you transcend the tribulation and become an immortal."

He paused, then said, "However... in reality, the half-price resource exchange and free cultivation techniques and secret arts you enjoy are already unparalleled and Daoist privileges."

Li Xian was somewhat surprised to hear this.

Back then, the sect leader made a special exception, allowing him to rival the peerless Dao Child even when he was at the Innate Realm.

"In addition, as a Dao Child, you can establish your own guard team, with an annual funding of one hundred million merit points paid by the sect. Furthermore, the Dao Child can also hold a position in one place..."

One hundred million.

Many Golden Core elders only earn tens of millions of yuan a year.

With this 100 million in funds, he could easily hire a team of Golden Core cultivators.

"Your appointment has three directions. First, you will go to the Southeast Region to serve as the Garrison Commander, assisting the Southeast Region Lord in handling matters concerning the three trillion living beings in that region. During this time, you will enjoy half of the Southeast Region's revenue and establish a kingdom or sect with a population not exceeding one percent of the Southeast Region's..."

Lu Linyuan paused for a moment, then said, "However, I estimate you won't choose this one, so we'll focus on the second one."

He smiled and said, "You should know that the Ascension Ranking of the Great Yu Immortal Dynasty was formulated by our Great Luo Immortal Sect. In fact, our Great Luo Immortal Sect also has an Ascension Ranking in the Boundless Immortal Dynasty, but its fame is not as great as the Star Glory Ranking set up by the Radiant Sun Immortal Sect. The second task is for you to go to the Boundless Immortal Dynasty to serve as the diplomatic ambassador of the Great Luo Immortal Sect and be fully responsible for promoting the Ascension Ranking."

"Promotion?"

Li Xian's heart skipped a beat: "How should we promote it?"

"You can set an example by sweeping through the Star Rankings, then attract everyone to challenge you, and finally rank them one by one based on their performance!"

Lu Linyuan said, "You are now completely different from what you were before in the Eastern Continent. Whether it was the number one cultivator in the Six Realms before, or the invincible cultivator in the Six Realms afterward, your name is known to everyone in the Eastern Continent. The same is true for the Boundless Immortal Dynasty. After you have cultivated to the Golden Core stage, your power will be even greater. Once you challenge the Boundless Immortal Dynasty, there will surely be many who will respond."

"Sweep through the Star Rankings!"

Clashing with all the cultivators of the entire Boundless Immortal Dynasty...

That's really great.

but……

"I remember that the core concept of the Ascension Ranking is to see if a person can prove their Dao and become an immortal, taking into account both strength and potential? Someone like Tantai Yue, who is at most a Golden Core cultivator with the strength of a second-level cultivator, can be ranked at the top. Isn't that a bit lacking in skill?"

"Not bad. I don't know about the Boundless Immortal Dynasty, but the number one person on the Immortal Ranking of the Great Yu Immortal Dynasty, Prince Consort Wang Jianxing, should have the strength of the Six Marks."

Xuanling provided the data.

"Six marks..."

Li Xian pondered for a moment.

If it were someone who hadn't yet broken through to the Golden Core stage, facing a Six-Scarred expert would likely have meant certain death.

Only a powerful figure like that, or even the Seven Marks True Monarch, could truly make him experience what death is.

But now he has cultivated to the Golden Core stage, and after nearly two years of immersion in the Ancient Burial Ground of Immortals, he has six marks...

That's not enough.

"The Ascension Ranking and the Star Glory Ranking overlap in the market. With the Star Glory Ranking of the Radiant Sun Immortal Sect already dominating, it won't be easy for the Ascension Ranking to catch up. Why not simply set up a new ranking? How about calling it the Dao Realm Supreme Ranking? And select who is the true number one in the Dao Realm?"

Li first made a suggestion.

"The Supreme Ranking of the Dao Realm?"

Lu Linyuan smiled upon hearing this: "The suggestion is not bad, but it's unrealistic. Without exception, the strongest in the Dao Realm are all at the peak of the Refining Spirit Realm. And what the peak Refining Spirit Realm experts care about most is passing the tribulation. Once they successfully pass the tribulation, they can immediately reach the Immortal Realm and enter a completely new world. Under such circumstances, all the fame and fortune in the Dao Realm are nothing but fleeting clouds to them and are completely unimportant."

He said, "There won't be any experts going to participate in the battle."

"Fleeting clouds..."

Li Xian pondered for a moment and said, "Although I don't know if others think this way, I always believe that a true strong person must have the heart of a strong person. Only those who maintain this unwavering belief in overcoming difficulties can truly overcome all obstacles and hardships..."

"Invincible power?"

Lu Linyuan quickly understood what Li Xian meant.

"In addition to the tribulation of lightning, there is also the tribulation of inner demons when undergoing tribulation!"

Xuanling suddenly interjected, "When the impurities in the Yin spirit are about to be cleansed by the purest Yang power of the thunder and flames, these thoughts that are unwilling to be erased will all emerge and constantly attack the flaws in the mind... Just like when a person holds their breath and loses consciousness, they will instinctively breathe. This is the source of the inner demon tribulation."

"You mean, using this new list to represent the inner demons of those undergoing tribulation?"

"Different people have different opinions!"

Xuanling said, "If those who dare not be on the list are afraid of the power of those on the list, this fear will naturally turn into a demon in their hearts when they undergo tribulation, while those who have firm beliefs will not be affected."

"Do not."

Lu Linyuan, after being reminded of this, also realized something: "What Li Xian said is right. A true peerless genius should be invincible. Those with firm beliefs do not need to be on the list, while those who are not strong enough will become nourishment for those on the list. They will be defeated one by one, and in each victory, they will cultivate an invincible momentum, and then use this invincible momentum to break through the tribulation in one fell swoop..."

nourishment!

Xuanling understood Li Xian's meaning and her gaze immediately fell on him.

He made this suggestion...

The goal is to build upon the beliefs of the entire Immortal Dynasty to forge an invincible force and break through the tribulation in one fell swoop.
"This will likely provoke a strong backlash from the Great Yu Immortal Dynasty."

"No, they will agree."

Lu Linyuan calmly said, "What the Boundless Immortal Dynasty wants has never been a powerful immortal; they want a true immortal! Under the suppression of the Radiant Sun Immortal Sect, how difficult is it to cultivate a true immortal through gradual cultivation? But if they are willing to sacrifice a generation to pave the way for someone's invincibility, then his probability will increase by at least 10% or 20%!"

One or two percent!

The probability of becoming a true immortal increases by 10% to 20%—what an astonishing figure!
It's enough for the Boundless Immortal Dynasty to gamble away a generation, a thousand years of its history.

Xuanling understood what the sect leader meant after hearing his words.

"This method is feasible. The key is... who is the true supreme master of the Dao realm, the invincible one in the Dao realm."

It nodded slightly.

"Wait a minute."

Lu Linyuan looked at Li Xian and said, "Wait a little longer. Once you have developed your divine sense, I will push this matter forward and use the entire generation of the Boundless Immortal Dynasty to pave an invincible path for you."

"?"

Li was somewhat confused.

He just wanted to challenge the top Dao Realm experts of the Boundless Immortal Dynasty. Why is it that Sect Master Lu and Xuanling have brought up some conspiracy theory?
But that's not the point.

The key point is that it seems Sect Leader Lu accepted his suggestion.

He then said, "There's no need to wait until the Refining Spirit Realm. The promotion of the Dao Realm Supreme Ranking is not something that can be done overnight. I believe that I won't be long before I reach the Refining Spirit Realm. Maybe by the time the Supreme Ranking is fully promoted, I will have already successfully broken through to the next realm."

"We will expedite this process."

Lu Linyuan smiled and said, "Don't worry, before you undergo your tribulation, the list of the strongest in the Dao Realm will definitely be known to everyone in the Boundless Immortal Dynasty."

After hearing this, Li Xian had no choice but to agree.

"alright."

"Please wait a moment. In the meantime, if you wish, you may visit the Flame Furnace Fortress of my Great Luo Immortal Sect in the Endless Sea."

Lu Linyuan said, "The third position I'm giving you is to go to the Endless Sea Flame Furnace War Fortress, to serve as a commander, to slay demons and monsters, and to expand our territory."

Endless seas beyond the ocean!
Li Xian's eyes lit up: "That suits me perfectly. I'll go to the Endless Sea to slay demons first, and then head to the Boundless Immortal Dynasty after the Dao Realm Supreme Ranking is completed."

"it is good."

Lu Linyuan took out a token: "This is your command token. You can lead your team to Flame Furnace Fortress on your own, or recruit people after arriving at Flame Furnace Fortress. In addition, as a Dao Child, you should have your own vehicle..."

"No need, the Skyship can't even fly as fast as me. Can I have the cash instead?"

Li Xiandao.

Upon hearing this, Lu Linyuan chuckled and said, "Why bother? If you lack merit, I can approve a limit of 10 billion for you, which you can repay within a hundred years."

"Ten billion..."

That's no small number.

Crafting a top-tier seventh-realm magic weapon would be a piece of cake.

but……

"If I establish a bodyguard team and don't need a car, could you approve 30 billion?"

Li Xian said, "During this trip to the Ancient Burial Ground of Immortals, I gained a completely new understanding of the Floating Dawn True Body and the Great Luo Limitless Sword Qi. As long as the resources are sufficient, I am confident that I can advance these two spells to another level."

"In that case..."

Lu Linyuan took into account Li Xian's escape speed...

They come and go like the wind, so the Sky Boat is not really needed for the time being.

"Then it will be as you say, and you will be granted 30 billion in merit-making funds, but 20 billion of that will be deducted from the merit-making funds for your guards and your vehicle."

"This is best."

Li Xian smiled and agreed.

"Then let's choose a date to go and take up our posts."

Lu Linyuan said with a smile.

Finally, as if he had thought of something, he added, "A mediocre person is not envied. Don't take a few idle words too seriously. Just stay true to yourself and forge ahead. I believe you will eventually rise to great heights and crush all the evil spirits."

He flicked his hand, and it transformed into a precious pearl, which he then handed over.

"If there is danger, crush it."

After saying that, he added, "You may not need it, but you can't live without it."

After hearing this, Mr. Li had no choice but to accept.

"Go on, and I hope that when we meet again, you will be undergoing spiritual refinement and tribulation."

Lu Linyuan smiled.

"Farewell."

Li Xian cupped his hands in greeting.

At that moment, guided by Xuanling, he left this Mi Luo Tian.

As he left, Li Xian couldn't help but look back one last time.

It's hard to imagine that humankind could possess such earth-shattering power...

At this moment, his concept of "immortal" truly became clear.

……

After bidding farewell to Xuanling, Li Xian rode his sword through the air and returned to his mountain peak.

His comings and goings are always unpredictable. This time, Qi Huo, Xiang Yangsheng, Zhao Guihai and others who live on the mountain were completely unaware of his return and made no preparations beforehand.

Even so, the area at the foot of his mountain was quite lively.

They even built a pavilion for guests at some point, and guests would visit there.

With Li Xianyu's return on his sword, the entire mountainside and surrounding area became lively in his presence.

One after another, figures rushed over at full speed.

"Senior Brother Li..."

"Congratulations, Senior Brother Li, on refining the Golden Core and becoming the twelfth seat of the sect's Daoist disciples!" "Senior Brother Li has achieved the union of Yin and Yang and attained the Golden Core, thus ensuring your immortality and longevity."

The few people who gathered on the mountaintop were all overjoyed.

They had all joined Li Xian's ranks early on, sharing his glory and his misfortune, and naturally hoped that he would get better and better.

"No need to be polite."

Li waved his hand.

He scanned the group of people...

Leaving aside the others, even the leaders Qi Huo, Zhao Guihai, and Xiang Yangsheng were only at the Innate Realm.

This made him feel somewhat disappointed, having met most of the great cultivators, true masters, and even the sect leader during this period.

After pondering for a moment, he glanced at his identity token with his spiritual sense. After purchasing materials for cultivating the Floating Dawn True Body and the Great Luo Limitless Sword Qi, he still had a balance of over 60 million merit points remaining...

He placed an order right then and there.

While waiting for the items to arrive, he also asked, "What's the deal with those houses down the mountain?"

"In the nearly two years since Senior Brother Li forged his Golden Core, visitors have been coming in droves. However, without Senior Brother's order, we cannot allow them to set foot on the mountain. But the number of visitors every day is too great, and it would be impolite to do so. That is why we built a place to settle down at the foot of the mountain."

As Qi Huo spoke, he quickly apologized, "I acted on my own initiative, please punish me, senior brother."

"It's nothing, it's just a small matter."

Li Xian casually asked, "What brings these people here?"

"These are all envoys from various factions of our Great Luo Immortal Sect, as well as some envoys from forces affiliated with our Great Luo Immortal Sect stationed abroad. Some are here to offer gifts and congratulations and make their presence known, some want to curry favor with Senior Brother Li, and some of extraordinary backgrounds hope to reach a cooperation agreement with Senior Brother Li..."

As Qi Huo spoke, he quickly had people bring out invitations one by one.

Li Xian glanced at it casually.

In the Great Luo Immortal Sect, each true disciple basically represents one, or even several or a dozen, forces.

Not only the true teachings, but also those of the elders.

Once you join the Great Luo Immortal Sect, you'll have plenty of people to give you gifts.

If even elders and true disciples are like this, let alone Li Xian, who has now reached the position of Dao Child.

If it weren't for the earlier news of Li Xian's duel with Yi Yuanshi, which made everyone hesitant, the foot of this mountain would probably have been trampled flat by visitors who came to deliver gifts.

After Li Xian's aptitude was confirmed, everyone guessed that even if he really wanted to fight Yi Yuanshi to the death, the sect would not be willing to let the two peerless masters fight to the death.

Now that he has cultivated to the Golden Core stage, his momentum is unstoppable...

These hesitant and cautious forces dared not hesitate any longer.

Even though Li Xian didn't spend most of his time at the Daluo Immortal Sect, his mountain was still surrounded by visitors representing different forces.

"call out!"

Just as Li Xian was casually looking through the invitations, a streak of light shot through the air.

"Li Daozi".

A hearty laugh echoed from outside the mountain peak: "The supplies you purchased have arrived. Please inspect them."

Li Xian glanced outside the mountain peak and said, "Elder Xu Nuo? Please come in."

The True Fire Realm elder immediately suppressed his sword light, and at the same time, he cupped his hands in congratulations with a big smile: "Congratulations, Daoist Li, on breaking through to the Golden Core Realm! May you live for a thousand years and achieve immortality!"

After saying this, he took out a storage ring: "This is a small token of my appreciation, please accept it, Li Daozi."

Li glanced at it first.

in……

It was a nautical chart?
Endless Sea Chart?
"Actually, this was a gift from my master, and I was just passing it on."

Xu Nuo smiled and said something.

"The Shadow Sword Immortal? That's thoughtful of you."

Li Xian accepted the nautical chart.

"These are the supplies purchased by Li Daozi. Please take a look."

Xu Nuodao handed over another box.

Li Xian glanced at it and saw that the ten Heavenly Enlightenment Pills were neatly arranged inside.

He then casually handed the pills to Qi Huo: "You have all taken good care of True Inheritance Peak in recent years. Now that I have advanced to the Golden Core stage, it is worth celebrating together. You can divide these ten pills among yourselves."

Qi Huo had already seen the pills inside when Li Xian opened the box.

Heavenly Enlightenment Elixir!
A full ten Heavenly Enlightenment Pills!
Each one has the potential to create a precious treasure for a Dao Foundation Realm cultivator!
This kind of elixir costs as much as 100,000!
If an ordinary Dao Foundation Realm elder wanted to save up enough money to buy one after deducting daily expenses, it would probably take twenty or thirty years!
Even if an elder who has cultivated magical power wants to buy one, it would take them at least ten years to save up the money.

at the moment……

Li Xianyi actually bestowed ten coins!?

"Senior Brother Li, this..."

Qi Huo's hands trembled slightly as he took the jade box.

She had never handled anything so valuable in her entire life.

"Go down."

Li interrupted her and waved for them to leave.

Qi Huo and the others exchanged glances, and finally bowed respectfully: "Thank you for your kindness, Senior Brother Li."

Xu Nuo, who was standing to the side, was also a little envious: "Li Daozi is really generous. He just gave away pills worth millions of merits like that."

He was no longer a true disciple of the sect. Although he could still earn five or six million a year, after deducting daily cultivation and expenses, he would be lucky to save one or two million.

He took out one million to reward the people on the mountain who already relied on him for their livelihood...

He could never be that magnanimous.

"This can also be considered a reward for their efforts in managing the mountain over the years."

Li Xiandao.

"A reward..."

Xu Nuo's lips twitched upon hearing Li Xian's words.

“The peaks of true disciples are naturally rich in the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. The True Disciple Peak of Li Zhenchuan is even more top-notch. Ordinary Xiantian people would rush to work on the mountain even if they were paid to do so. Not to mention that being able to enter and leave the peak of a true disciple is a symbol of status and position, allowing them to hold their heads high in the sect circle and be superior to others.”

He gave a hint: "People like Qi Huo and Zhao Guihai are people with powerful backgrounds. Zhao Guihai comes from a Foundation Establishment family, but since he followed Li Daozi, his family's business has been booming, and their profits have more than doubled. The family's patriarch has even broken through to the second realm of magic power thanks to this. As for the Great Yan Dynasty where Qi Huo is from... given his relationship with Li Daozi, who would dare not look up to him?"

"Will any of them take this opportunity to bully others?"

"That's not the case."

Xu Nuo shook his head: "But, without rules, there can be no order. Being able to serve on Li Daozi's mountain peak is itself a kind of power. For their social class, there is no need to borrow power; the power is already there."

Even the mighty Great Yan royal family, their strongest members are only at the True Essence Realm.

The troubles they might encounter at most come from the pressure of the True Fire Realm. Anything involving Li Xian or those around him would require those True Fire Realm cultivators to be on their guard.
Upon hearing this, Li Xian felt it was both reasonable and somewhat unexpected.

These……

He really doesn't understand.

After thinking for a moment, he sent a message to Nangong Feixu.

If he doesn't understand, he can find someone who does.

The moment the message was sent out, a streak of light shot through the air.

It was clearly Nangong Feixu and Nangong Zhaoying.

They came so fast...

Clearly, they had already set off when they learned that Li had returned to the mountain.

"Senior Brother Li."

Upon seeing Li Xian, Nangong Feixu's expression was filled with surprise and delight.

But along with the surprise came a touch of melancholy.

However, she quickly suppressed her disappointment, and a smile returned to her pretty face: "Congratulations, Senior Brother Li, on condensing your Golden Core, achieving immortality for a thousand years, and attaining the Great Dao of Longevity!"

"You're too kind, Junior Sister Nangong. You've come at the perfect time. I need your help with many things."

As Li Xian spoke, he seemed to have thought of something: "I wonder if our promise to lend me a hand still stands?"

Upon hearing Li Xian mention this matter, Nangong Feixu's expression became slightly unnatural.

There was a hint of hesitation in his eyes.

After only a moment, she said, "If Senior Brother Li needs me, I will do my best."

"Alright, I hope Junior Sister Nangong can help me look after True Inheritance Peak when she has some free time."

Li Xian said frankly.

"Me, help look after your True Inheritance Peak?"

Nangong Feixu was taken aback, then continued, "You have already cultivated to the Golden Core stage and should become the twelfth Dao Child of the sect. Your True Inheritance Peak will also soon be rebuilt into Dao Child Peak. At that time, both the spiritual energy and the environment will be greatly improved. As long as you ask, there are plenty of people willing to help..."

"I don't trust anyone else."

Li Xian said frankly.

Those few simple words quickly dispelled the unnaturalness in Nangong Feixu's expression.

A smile reappeared on her lips: "Senior Brother Li... are you really willing to let me manage your Daozi Peak?"

"Correct."

Li Xian nodded: "Junior Sister Nangong can treat this mountain as her own home and manage it however she wants."

"My own home..."

The smile on Nangong Feixu's face widened even further.

"Since Senior Brother Li trusts me so much, Feixu will certainly not let you down."

"Then please."

Li Xian also agreed with a big smile.

That's it.

Xu Nuo, standing to the side, looked at Li Xian, then at Nangong Feixu, and felt that something was off about their conversation.

But he couldn't quite put his finger on what was wrong.

At this moment, Li Xian seemed to notice him and asked, "Is there anything else, Elder Xu?"

"Um……"

Xu Nuo pondered for a moment and said, "It's just a small matter. Has Li Daozi taken on a disciple in Dengxian City?"

"Ascend to the Immortal City? Take on disciples? No."

Li Xian asked, somewhat puzzled, "Why would Elder Xu ask such a question?"

"No?"

Xu Nuo was slightly taken aback: "But that person clearly used a token with your spiritual energy fluctuations to exchange for a large amount of supplies over the years, claiming that you asked her to exchange them, and that they were recorded in your account..."

"A token bearing the fluctuations of my spiritual consciousness?"

After a moment's thought, Li Xian quickly made a connection.

In Dengxian City, he did indeed send a token containing spiritual consciousness to a cultivator named Tang Yu.

But he had already made it clear at the time that he could only exchange for the five innate elements...

What did she exchange for?

Seeing this, Xu Nuo seemed to realize that something was wrong and immediately responded truthfully.

"The first time was the Five Primordial Qi, the second was the Spirit-Nourishing Grass, the third was the Thousand-Year Vermilion Fruit, the fourth was the Taiyin Essence, the fifth was the Nine-Turn Creation Pill... Last time, I even exchanged for Sun Essence worth four hundred million..."

He paused for a moment: "Currently, the total outstanding amount of your token has reached over 1.06 billion."
