Trading the heavens starting from immortality

The Xuanhuang Great World contains the Path of Immortals, the Path of Demons, and the Path of Monsters.

The Immortal Path has ten most powerful sects, known as the "Ten Immortal Sects"; the Demonic Path also has seven most powerful demonic sects, known as the "Seven Demonic Lineages"; and the Monster Path also has five powerful sects, known as the "Five Monster Sects".

These are the most powerful sects among the three paths of immortals, demons, and monsters, and also the most elite forces in the Xuanhuang Great World.

Besides the "Feathered Ascension Gate," the Ten Immortal Sects also include the "Taiyi Sect," "Starry Sky Gate," "Heavenly Sword Sect," "Alchemy Sword Sect," "Sun and Moon Sword Sect," "One Yuan Sect," "Myriad Return Immortal Island," "Exquisite Blessed Land," and "Crystal Cave Heaven." Among them, the "Taiyi Sect" ranks first among the Ten Immortal Sects and aspires to lead and supervise all the Daoist sects in the world.

The seven demonic sects include the "Yellow Springs Demonic Sect", "Innate Demonic Sect", "Blood Shadow Demonic Sect", "Heavenly Annihilation Demonic Sect", "Eternal Hatred Demonic Sect", "Red Dust Demonic Sect", and "Wilderness Demonic Sect".

The Five Demonic Sects are sects established by powerful demons, including the "Demon God Sect," "Heavenly Silkworm Sect," and "Heavenly Demon Sect."

......

Feathered Gate, Immortal Academy.

The Immortal Gathering Hall is the gathering place for all disciples. It is a square with a radius of ten miles, where many dragon-carved ornamental columns depicting the gathering of immortals stand tall. In the center is the "Ascending Immortal Platform," which is eighteen feet high and three feet in diameter, resembling a small mountain. It is where elders instruct disciples and issue sect missions.

The square is usually deserted, but today it was bustling with activity, with many ascension disciples in their robes already waiting there.

Fang Han and Princess Hongyi arrived at the square early to wait.

During this time, a handsome young disciple carrying a purple jade folding fan walked over. He seemed to be talking to Princess Hongyi with a smile, while his eyes inadvertently sized up Fang Han.

Then, Princess Hongyi said, "Senior Brother Han, a friend has invited us to join a small group composed of Prince Bao and many other princes and princesses of the Great Virtue Royal Family to participate in the trial mission together."

Holding a purple fan, the young man she was talking to was named Liu Kang, the eldest son of the Marquis of Zhenyuan of the Great Li Dynasty. The two of them had taken the outer sect exam together and were old acquaintances.

"It's alright."

Fang Han nodded.

"Alright! Hongyi, and this senior brother too, the Great Virtue Royal Family has already made arrangements with many senior brothers and sisters in the inner sect. We can also take this opportunity to benefit from their connections. Whether we can get a spot as an inner sect disciple depends on this sect mission!"

Liu Kang said, his tone slightly excited.

The treatment of inner disciples is completely different from that of outer disciples. Only by becoming an inner disciple can one hope to step into the Divine Power Realm.

After some investigation, he learned that the "Senior Brother Han" mentioned by Princess Hongyi was a disciple of Zidian Peak with great strength. That's why he planned to bring him along. The three of them were all from the Dali Dynasty, so they could look out for each other.

Seeing that Fang Han agreed, Liu Kang then headed towards the direction where the disciples of the Great Virtue Royal Family were, as he wanted to inform them in advance.

Chi!

An extremely powerful sword cry resounded through the sky, scattering the white clouds and revealing a vast expanse of clear land. Then, five Taoist priests, their bodies radiating precious light and riding on rosy clouds, slowly flew down from the sky.

The appearance of these five Taoist priests excited many disciples in the square.

Flying through the sky and disappearing into the earth—these are supernatural abilities, clearly indicating that these five people are all powerful beings with extraordinary abilities!

"These are elders from the Feathered Heaven Palace!"

Princess Hongyi spoke up, her expression filled with envy.

The Feathered Heavenly Palace is the residence of elders and other high-ranking members of the Feathered Immortal Sect, who possess supernatural powers and even the secret realm of longevity. It is also the true source of the Feathered Immortal Sect's high-end power, suspended deep within the Feathered Immortal Mountain. The mirage-like city that mortals see when they first arrive at the Feathered Immortal Mountain is the "Feathered Heavenly Palace." Those who can enter the Feathered Immortal Palace are undoubtedly powerful figures at the supernatural realm or even more terrifying levels.

"Supernatural powers! Supernatural powers! If I can break through to the realm of supernatural powers, I can avenge my mother!" the girl thought to herself.

Everyone has their own experiences and secrets, and Princess Hongyi is no exception.

"Such supernatural abilities are indeed mysterious and unpredictable!"

Fang Han's gaze was deep, and a barely perceptible excitement surfaced in his eyes.

What's written in books and what you see and feel with your own eyes are like the difference between a two-dimensional illusion and a three-dimensional reality. No matter how realistic the description in words may seem, it is still essentially false and fictional. But when falsehood becomes reality, it's a completely different experience.

To put it bluntly, it's like having a hundred billion in a game versus having a hundred billion in real life. Although the numbers are the same, the feelings they bring are absolutely worlds apart.

Previously, Fang Qingxue used the "Purple Lightning Yin Thunder Blade" to kill eight people and eight cranes, also in this way...

The sound of sword light tearing through the air disappeared, and the five elders of the Feathered Gate slowly descended onto the "Ascending Immortal Platform".

At this moment, the entire venue fell silent, devoid of any noise.

Article 29 of the Yuhua Sect Rules states that, according to the elders' instructions, disciples within the sect must not make noise or disturbances; those who violate this rule will be expelled from the Yuhua Sect!

After a moment of contemplation, one of the elders, dressed in purple Taoist robes, holding a floating flaming object, and whose body crackled with lightning, said:

"In the vast desert, the Blue Moon Kingdom has been attacked by sand bandits, their attacks also involving underground demons and the Demonic Path. This sect mission serves two purposes: first, to relieve the Blue Moon Kingdom's crisis, and second, to provide you with valuable training!"

"Outer disciples who achieve success in their training can be promoted to inner disciples; inner disciples who achieve success in their training and reach the Divine Power Realm can be promoted to true disciples of our Feathered Ascension Sect!"

"Those who instigated this incident are Wang Molin, the 'Little True Man of the Heavenly Wolf' from the Demon God Sect, the 'Little Demoness of the Pure Fox' from the Heavenly Demon Sect, and the 'Red Powder Prince' from the Red Dust Demon Sect... Killing any one of these people will reward you with a 'Yin Yang Longevity Pill'!"

"Regarding this training mission, if you feel your cultivation is insufficient, you can continue your training within the sect. However, on the path of cultivation, only under great terror can one unleash their spiritual potential and subsequently cultivate supernatural powers... Whether to participate in the training is your own decision!" The purple-robed elder's words rolled like thunder, resounding in the ears of all the disciples in the square. Then, the five elders gradually rose, flew into the sky, and disappeared.

After these elders from the mystical realms left, the plaza erupted in chaos, filled with countless discussions.

Some were excited, some were thrilled, and some even had a burning passion in their eyes.

It's all because of the "Yin Yang Longevity Pill".

This pill is neither a human-grade pill, nor a spirit-grade pill, nor an earth-grade pill, but a heaven-grade pill!

And it's a top-grade Heavenly-level elixir!!

One Yin-Yang Longevity Pill can increase one's lifespan by ten Jiazi (60 years), and can also help cultivators step into the realm of supernatural powers. Each one can be called a rare treasure of heaven and earth and a treasure of the sect!

It should be understood that for ordinary people, even if they cultivate to the level of divine transformation, living to 130 or 150 years old is already the limit.

Entering the realm of supernatural powers, if one cannot break through to the fifth level of the Celestial Realm, and cannot achieve the ability to communicate with celestial beings through magical power and condense a great array to protect the physical body, one's lifespan cannot be increased and will remain at just over a hundred years. For this reason, a saying has been passed down in the cultivation world since ancient times: "Supernatural powers are of no benefit to life; supernatural powers are supernatural powers, and lifespan is lifespan, and they cannot be generalized."

The Yin-Yang Longevity Pill, which can increase lifespan by six hundred years, is therefore extremely precious!

With an extra six hundred years of lifespan, let alone a human, even a pig could reach the Divine Power Realm by simply enduring time.

Therefore, when the elders of the Feathered Ascension Sect announced that the "Yin-Yang Longevity Pill" was one of the rewards for the training, many inner disciples of the Feathered Ascension Sect were green with envy. If they obtained a Yin-Yang Longevity Pill, it would be equivalent to having one foot in the Divine Power Realm!

"It seems that Little Wolf Master, Little Fox Demoness, and Red Powder Prince... they're all doomed! I reckon some of the disciples on the Mountain and River Ranking will make a move, and we'll just have to get by," said an inner disciple.

The disciples on the "Mountain and River Ranking" are all inner disciples, but they are the best among the inner disciples. Almost all of them have strength comparable to the Divine Power Realm. Their status is far beyond that of ordinary inner disciples. They can also be said to be the "preparatory true disciples" of the Feathered Ascension Sect.

"I heard that someone has already mastered supernatural powers and transformed into a human! It seems the sect is taking this mission very seriously!"

"That's for sure. There are several Xuanjin ley lines in the Blue Moon Kingdom. These Xuanjin ley lines are the perfect blessed land for condensing one of our Feathered Ascension Sect's eight great divine abilities, the 'Great Freedom Xuanjin Sword Qi.' We definitely can't let these demons occupy them, otherwise, it's very likely that our Feathered Ascension Sect will suffer heavy losses..."

"I heard that besides the 'Yin Yang Longevity Pill' and 365 inner disciple slots, this sect mission also offers rewards such as pills, magic weapons, and spiritual artifacts. I can't miss it!"

"Exactly! Brother, any ideas? How about we join forces to slay demons and uphold justice?"

"Great kindness~"

Within a radius of a thousand feet, all sounds were heard by Fang Han, allowing him to learn more information.
