Cultivation of Immortality: This is what unorthodox methods are like.

A journey of over 100,000 li was nothing more than a day's work for the royal power of that time.

For him now, it's just a short one or two hours away.

Originally, he was supposed to travel back to Daliang alone, but as he approached his hometown, he felt a little apprehensive.

He thought about his youth, the bewilderment he felt when he first came into this world, and many other things.

Finally, they landed on the cruise ship, slowly making their way towards the main beam while adjusting their mindset.

However, he was forced by several female cultivators to embark on this journey alone.

The 72nd Route was shrouded in billowing dust, trailing long plumes of smoke, heading straight for Daliang.

Within the territory of Daliang today, turmoil is brewing:

Within the Great Liang, over the past twenty years, more than a hundred sects of varying sizes have emerged.

These sects are all new-method sects.

Many sects fight each other every few days to seize territory, young people with spiritual roots, and resources such as spirit stones.

Some minor sects were wiped out.

Larger sects grow stronger through repeated battles.

Qingfeng and Qingling are the two strongest sects in the Great Liang Empire.

These two sects are now locked in a fierce struggle over the spirit stone mines within Wolong Mountain.

Ultimately, the two major sects followed the example of the ancients and launched a magical duel tournament.

Everyone called upon their friends and hired thugs to come and help.

In an instant, cultivators filled the air within the Great Liang Empire, and even many demons came with clubs, their killing intent palpable, to lend their support.

Thus, the Great Liang Empire became lively.

This is especially true for the major cities near Wolong Mountain.

Unfortunately, the enemy of the king was located in a large city near Wolong Mountain.

Wang Quan disliked trouble, so he went to the Temple of Immortals where he had studied in his youth in a very low-key manner.

Inside the Immortal Teaching Office, he saw his former instructors.

After decades, the once young instructor now has gray hair at his temples and a somewhat hunched back.

At this moment, the instructor sat upright in the secret room, with dozens of sets of internal organ refining methods hanging outside.

At this moment, Wang Quan used a spiritual eye technique to observe and discovered that the other party's vital energy and lifespan were only twenty or thirty years left.

Seeing this, he sighed.

A sigh startled the instructors in the practice.

His body trembled, and without opening his eyes to look at Wang Quan, he quickly said, "Senior, this junior is just a minor Qi Refining Realm cultivator."

"I don't have much savings."

"Whatever you fancy, senior, you can have."

"This junior knows the rules, I will not open my eyes or sense anything; I only ask that you, senior, grant me a way out."

He was terrified, afraid.

Because this is his secret chamber for secluded cultivation.

Theoretically speaking, if he doesn't open the door, no one outside can get in.

But now...

Wang Quan sighed, "You only have about twenty years left to live. It wouldn't be a big deal if you died sooner."

The instructor sobbed uncontrollably, "Senior, even after my lifespan comes to an end, I can still transform into a zombie."

"He can live for several hundred more years."

"When the zombie aura erodes my soul, I can peel off my skin and live for hundreds of years as a shadow puppet. Finally, I can dismantle my bones and transform them into a powerful skeleton to live for hundreds of years."

"If all else fails, one can be thrown into the Emperor's Banner to survive for a thousand years."

"Senior, I still have a long life ahead of me, I really don't want to die."

Wang Quan was taken aback: "You're going to use so many methods to survive? That will consume a lot of resources."

"You...have resources?"

call!

The instructor breathed a sigh of relief; "Senior, I used to traffic some boys, and that's how I managed to make some resources."

"so....."

Wang Quan laughed upon hearing this: "You've trafficked some teenagers?"

"Now you know why I contacted you?"

Upon hearing this, the instructor fell silent, sweating profusely.

At that moment, he understood:

The so-called senior is actually the young man whose legitimate place in a prestigious family was sold by him in the past.

The other party has returned after completing their studies to seek revenge.

So...

"What's your name?" the instructor asked.

Wang Quan laughed: "Wang Quan!"

The instructor retrieved his memory, then quickly exclaimed, "I remember now!"

"You have mastered nine thousand volumes of Daoist scriptures; you should have gone to the Taixu Sect."

"As it turned out, a big shot contacted me and replaced the spot."

Wang Quan laughed: "Go on!"

The instructor sighed; he knew he was going to die. Then he opened his eyes and looked at Wang Quan: "What realm are you at?"

Wang Quan laughed: "Does it matter?"

The instructor chuckled: "If you're too weak, I won't tell you that important person's name."

"After all, the power behind big shots is enormous."

"I've already hurt you once, I don't want to hurt you a second time."

Wang Quan laughed: "Foundation Establishment cultivator, the most advanced Foundation Establishment cultivator."

The instructor was astonished: "In just a few decades, you've reached the highest level of Foundation Establishment?"

"Indeed, your mastery of nine thousand scrolls of Daoist scriptures back then was truly extraordinary!"

Wang Quan chuckled: "Then tell me the identity of that important person."

"Also, who went to the Taixu Sect in my place?"

Taixu is a top-tier sect within the orthodox Xuanmen sect.

The Taixu Sect is related to other sects such as Taisu, Taiyuan, and Taiwei.

The Daoist cultivators inside are far more powerful than ordinary unorthodox cultivators.

Moreover, they should all have mastered the illusory form of the magic weapon.

More importantly, they have far more resources than those of unorthodox practitioners.

"If I had entered the Taixu Sect back then... my achievements would probably be even greater now!"

Wang Quan was in turmoil.

At this moment, the instructor took a deep breath and said in a deep voice:

"After I came here to work as an instructor, I have been helping a family called Beiming replace the orthodox Xuanmen (Taoist sect) members."

"The Beiming family existed long, long before me."

"My predecessors, and those before them... even thousands or tens of thousands of years ago, all made deals with the [Beiming] family."

"According to the messages left by those predecessors, the Beiming family will send their descendants to the ten major sects of the Five Primordial Sects and the Five Acquired Sects."

"It has been like this for thousands of years, tens of thousands of years."

"Wang Quan, although you are a top-tier Foundation Establishment cultivator, you cannot afford to offend them."

"Over thousands of years, tens of thousands of years, they have accumulated immense power."

"In fact, the current sect leaders of the Five Great Sects may all be cultivators from their own families."

"By provoking them, you are essentially fighting against ten orthodox sects of the Xuanmen."

Wang Quan nodded: "Hmm... So, what's the name of the person who replaced me? Do you know?"

The instructor shook his head: "I don't know!"

"I simply handed over the spot; I had no idea who would ultimately receive it."

Wang Quan sighed, "Alright, it seems you're useless now."

"Tell me, do you want to be burned by flames in the Soul Lamp for nine thousand years? Or... to toil for a lifetime in the Human Emperor's Banner?"

The instructor scratched his head, thought for a moment, and said, "Let's go to the Emperor's Banner!"

"By the way, if I do well inside, could I get some pay?"

"You know I have a whole family to support!"

"I have seventy-two concubines, three hundred and sixty-five maids, and more than a thousand children... and more than seven thousand grandchildren..."

"Daily expenses are very high."

He looked at the king with pleading eyes.

The king remained silent.

The instructor gave a wry smile: "Sigh... well, that's how it is then!"

-----------------

The instructor is dead.

The flesh and blood body was burned to ashes, and the spirit was burned to ashes.

Wang Quan then used a nightmare-like spell to kill all the blood relatives within three generations of the instructor, erasing all their consciousness and souls.

"May you rest in peace."

"I've sent your whole family to reunite with them, so you don't need to worry about working to earn money anymore!"

"In my next life... I want to be an ordinary person!"

Whoosh!

Ashes drifted away.

Wang Quan slapped his forehead and suddenly realized, "That's right, you don't have a next life."
