Chapter 3779 Another Innate Immortal Body

"This is Ji Kong, a disciple I once took in. The rest are his fellow disciples, all from the Lingxiao Sword Sect."

Now, the Lingxiao Sword Sect has been annihilated by the Dark Cult, with only a few surviving.

"Since they have come to the Star Luo Immortal Realm, I wish to find them a blessed immortal mountain in Guangyu Prefecture as the foundation for their sect. Do you have any recommendations?"

Shen Changqing spoke calmly.

Upon hearing this...

Haoyang was taken aback for a moment, then laughed.

"This matter is easy. I dare not speak for other places, but if it is only in Guangyu Prefecture, it is easy to find a blessed land.

Three million li from the Holy Land of Fuyou, there happens to be a sacred mountain. This sacred mountain is occupied by a group of rogue cultivators. Not long ago, a disciple of the Holy Land unfortunately died at the hands of these rogue cultivators. I am about to settle accounts with them.

Once the Holy Land has wiped out these rogue cultivators, that immortal mountain can become the foundation of our ancestor's disciples' sect!

Upon hearing this...

Shen Changqing nodded slightly.

He could actually do this himself, but there was no need for him to.

Haoyang's intervention is undoubtedly the most appropriate.

of course.

According to the other party, such a sacred mountain could not possibly be the most prestigious cultivation paradise in Guangyu Prefecture.

After all, top-tier cultivation sites are either occupied by powerful independent cultivators or controlled by major forces.

The sacred mountains and blessed lands where forces such as the original Qian Yuan Holy Land and Bei Dou Immortal Sect were located are now the top cultivation holy lands in Guang Yu Prefecture.

After these forces were destroyed, the Fuyou Holy Land did not interfere with them much, allowing other forces to fight over them, which naturally led to fierce battles among all sides.

Although Shen Changqing was unclear about the specifics, he vaguely knew that in the end, those blessed lands and immortal mountains all fell into the hands of a few top-tier Immortal Emperor-level rogue cultivators.

The reason why the Holy Land of Fuyou did not bring those sacred mountains and blessed lands under its control is quite simple.

The first problem is that it's not needed.

The territory currently controlled by the Fuyou Holy Land is sufficient for its own growth. It is not very meaningful to continue to annex more immortal mountains and blessed lands.

Moreover.

The Fuyao Holy Land is the most powerful force in Guangyu Prefecture, but Dongming Immortal State is ultimately incomparable to other immortal states.

No one knows how many hidden powerhouses exist in the Star Luo Immortal Realm.

Even in a small place like Guangyu Prefecture, an ancient half-saint, or even a saint, might emerge at any time.

and so.

Even though Fuyao Holy Land is now openly unchallenged, Haoyang still needs to be cautious.

after all.

If something really goes wrong, the destruction of the Fuyao Holy Land will be a matter of moments.

This situation is actually not uncommon.

Such things were once discovered in Guangyu's mansion.

And then.

Even Haoyang could see that Ji Kong and the other cultivators were not very strong. Even if they were given a top-tier immortal mountain and blessed land, the latter might not be able to keep it.

It would be better to use an ordinary immortal mountain as its base, and with the reputation of the Fuyou Holy Land, other forces would not dare to offend it rashly.

"In that case, you shall make arrangements for the remaining cultivators of the Lingxiao Sword Sect for the time being."

Shen Changqing said.

"Can!"

Haoyang nodded, and the other Lingxiao Sword Sect cultivators hurriedly paid their respects.

"Thank you, senior!"

They couldn't afford to be careless with a being who appeared to be a top-tier Immortal Emperor.

Then.

Haoyang then arranged for someone to temporarily designate a place as a residence for the Lingxiao Sword Sect.

the other side.

Ji Kong, however, followed Shen Changqing to the Bodhi Immortal Abode.

Upon entering this immortal abode, one sees ancient trees reaching for the sky, and the majestic immortal energy and Daoist power shake Ji Kong's heart and soul.

As a true disciple of the first peak of the Lingxiao Sword Sect and a direct disciple of Jiang Daoyuan, he was highly regarded by the sect, and his own immortal abode had an excellent cultivation environment.

However, it is still inferior to the immortal abode before us.

"sit down."

Shen Changqing sat down under the ancient Bodhi tree and then spoke softly. Ji Kong sat down in the empty seat in front of him as instructed.

"Master!"

Now, facing Shen Changqing alone, Ji Kong also felt a strange sense of restraint and pressure.

no way.

After more than ten million years apart, it was inevitable that I would feel a little reserved.

Shen Changqing said calmly, "Tell me about your situation over the years."

"Yes--"

Ji Kong's expression turned serious, and he immediately told her everything that had happened since his ascension, without any concealment.

His journey has been relatively uneventful. He was fortunate enough to join the Lingxiao Sword Sect, and has been cultivating ever since.

but.

Upon hearing that Ji Kong possessed the innate Golden Spirit Immortal Body, Shen Changqing's face showed a hint of surprise.

Innate Immortal Body!

Speaking of which...

Ji Kong should be considered the third cultivator among all the ascended cultivators in the universe to possess an innate immortal body.

Do not--

Strictly speaking...

It should be the fourth one.

Shen Changqing almost forgot to include himself in the calculation.

but.

Even excluding myself, Gu Qingyang, Ji Kong, and Jian Huang together make up three innate immortal bodies.

Normally, innate immortal bodies are rare.

Looking across the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm, it's questionable whether many ancient sects and forces can even produce a single innate immortal body.

The fact that three innate immortal bodies could appear in the universe at once is itself unbelievable.

This also indirectly shows that the universe is governed by great fortune.

otherwise.

How can we explain the existence of so many innate immortal bodies in one lower realm universe?

Furthermore...

Ascension to the lower universe is difficult.

Before the universes were advanced, the number of ancient immortals was excessive compared to other lower universes, if not countless.

From every perspective, the universe is extraordinary.

but.

Shen Changqing was not yet certain why this tiny universe possessed such great fortune.

After Ji Kong finished speaking, Shen Changqing paused and said, "Those with innate immortal bodies can compete for the opportunity of the Ancient Immortal Stele. If you can find the opportunity of the Ancient Immortal Stele, you may have a chance to step into the realm of great perfection of immortal body."

If you want to revive the Lingxiao Sword Sect, your cultivation level at the Ancient Immortal Realm is far from enough. Even if you reach the Immortal Emperor Realm, you will still be far from sufficient.

The Dark Cult is powerful, and the Dark Lord behind it is even more unfathomable.

"Now prepare yourself. I will take you to other immortal continents to try and seize any opportunities. Until then, your task is to suppress your cultivation level as much as possible and not break through to the Immortal Emperor realm!"

"Ancient Immortal Stele!"

Ji Kong was deeply shaken when he heard these words.

He was also familiar with the Heavenly Dao Divine Stele.

In fact.

Jiang Daoyuan had intended for him to go to the Heavenly Dao Divine Stele to compete for the opportunities on the Ancient Immortal Stele.

At that time, Ji Kong believed that there was still room for improvement in his cultivation, so he suppressed his cultivation and did not go for the time being.

But no one expected it.

This wait.

This led to the destruction of the Lingxiao Sword Sect.

Later on, Ji Kong had already given up on the idea of ​​going to compete for the opportunity of the Ancient Immortal Stele.

after all--

Without the Lingxiao Sword Sect as a backer, if he were to leave his name on the Ancient Immortal Stele, he would inevitably become a target for other forces.

Even with his confidence, Ji Kong knew that he was merely an Ancient Immortal Realm cultivator, far inferior to those ancient powers, and had no chance of contending with them.

But now.

Shen Changqing's words, however, rekindled his hope.

but.

Ji Kong was still somewhat hesitant: "When I was in the Lingxiao Sword Sect, I heard that many forces were eyeing the spots on the Ancient Immortal Stele. Even if an ordinary cultivator was lucky enough to enter the Ancient Immortal Stele, other forces would not let him go unchecked."

Now that the Lingxiao Sword Sect has been destroyed, if I were to go to the location of the Heavenly Dao Divine Stele, I fear it would cause Master some trouble—”

This sentence.

Ji Kong put it very tactfully.

This wasn't because he lacked confidence in Shen Changqing; it was simply because his master ascended to immortality later than him.

Even though his cultivation level is now unfathomable and he can easily kill a Celestial Emperor from the Immortal God Sect, the opponent's cultivation level is at most at the Celestial Emperor level.

The great calamity will not arrive.

It is difficult to achieve immortality.

Ji Kong was aware of this.

If I were to actually go to the Heavenly Dao Divine Stele and implicate my master, then he would be in grave danger.

Upon hearing this, Shen Changqing chuckled and said, "Don't worry, since I've sent you to the Heavenly Dao Divine Stele, I'm confident I can protect you."

However, the opportunity presented by the Heavenly Dao Divine Stele is of utmost importance. If you do not cultivate to the pinnacle of ancient immortality, you will inevitably miss the opportunity.

If you focus on your cultivation, you will have a chance to compete for first place on the Ancient Immortal Stele!

at this point.

Shen Changqing was not exaggerating.

The reason is that Ji Yang was the last person to win first place on the Ancient Immortal Stele.

When Ji Yang first ascended to the top of the Ancient Immortal Stele, his own immortal body had not yet reached the minor completion stage. He relied on his own foundation to suppress a group of ancient immortals and then reach the top.

In comparison, although Ji Kong was not a reincarnation of an ancient powerhouse, his greatest advantage lay in his minor mastery of the Immortal Body.

Every breakthrough and transformation of the innate immortal body is astonishing.

But the same applies.

For such immortal bodies to undergo transformation, the difficulty is extremely high.

It is evident that the Lingxiao Sword Sect paid a considerable price in order to allow Ji Kong to take a single step into the realm of Lesser Immortal Body.

With such a divine body as his foundation, Ji Kong is qualified to compete with Ji Yang before his breakthrough.

Although...

Now that Ji Yang has broken through to the Immortal Emperor Realm, he has been removed from the Ancient Immortal Stele, and the number one position has changed hands.

But whoever ascends to the top of the Ancient Immortal Stele, Ji Kong has the qualifications to compete.

Shen Changqing understood the other party's concerns.

To be honest.

If Ji Kong's opportunity to compete for the Immortal Emperor Stele was real, Shen Changqing really wasn't confident he could protect him completely.

But if it's just an opportunity on the Ancient Immortal Stele, then there's not much of a problem.

Shen Changqing had his own ideas on how to proceed.

Seeing his master's resolute attitude, Ji Kong suppressed his remaining concerns and nodded in agreement.

"By the way, Master previously referred to himself as Bodhi..."

Immediately afterward, Ji Kong seemed to have thought of something and asked again with a slight hesitation.

Shen Changqing said calmly, "It's nothing, I just caused some trouble. Just think of me as Bodhi, and there's no need to say anything else."

Even with the cultivators of the Lingxiao Sword Sect, don't reveal too much information.

"Disciple understands!" (End of Chapter)
