Chapter 597: Chapter 330 Century
Tianshu Palace.
"Master, here is all the information we found."
A young man in a blue robe handed a Jade Scroll to Yuyang Daoist.
Yuyang Daoist took the Jade Scroll and examined it carefully.
"These people are all Ascenders, coming from the same Lower Realm as Wu Shuang’s Daoist companion, Qian Yuan... Furthermore, all of them are Qian Yuan’s disciples and followers."
After reading it, Yuyang Daoist knitted his brows.
This all seemed too mysterious.
These Ascenders from the Lower Realm all practiced the orthodox Immortal Dao and successfully completed the Foundation Establishment.
Moreover, this intelligence showed that the number of these self-claimed Divine Sword Sect Ascenders was nearly a thousand.
Among them, almost half had become servant disciples of the Unrivaled Dao Palace.
"This Qian Yuan is not simple."
After a long while, Yuyang Daoist suddenly spoke.
"Master, I also feel that there is something off about this Qian Yuan."
The young man in the blue robe said, "Moreover, I found a clue that the Hall Master of Luoyuan Taoist School not only is Qian Yuan’s master but is also an Ascender from the Longevity Realm."
"I was already aware of this."
Yuyang Daoist said.
"Master, if we start with the Hall Master of Tianlan, perhaps we can uncover the real background of this Qian Yuan."
The young man in the blue robe suggested.
Yuyang Daoist pondered for a moment, then shook his head, "Let’s put this matter aside for now, you don’t need to worry about it."
"Master, if we allow the Unrivaled Dao Palace to produce more Foundation Establishment Cultivators, then I’m afraid our Tianshu Palace won’t have any chance of getting disciples appointed to the Immortal Register in the future."
The young man in the blue robe said quickly.
Originally, Tianshu Palace could have had two spots this time, but after the Unrivaled Dao Palace took seventeen spots, Tianshu Palace didn’t get even one.
One of his family members entered Tianshu Palace as a prospective Immortal Register disciple, originally able to receive a spot this time. However, due to the Unrivaled Dao Palace’s interference, the spot was lost, and they have to wait for the next time.
But who knows how many orthodox Foundation Establishment Cultivators will emerge from the Unrivaled Dao Palace by the next Immortal Register appointment?
"Others will be more anxious than us."
Yuyang Daoist shook his head.
He knew that there was something very unusual behind the Unrivaled Dao Palace.
When the Primordial Demon Sect invaded years ago... the Unrivaled Dao Palace had a Primordial Daoist Master who repelled the people from the Primordial Demon Sect. Although more than thirty years have passed, no one knows whether that person has left or not.
The sudden emergence of so many Foundation Establishment levels in the Unrivaled Dao Palace made him suspect it had some relation to that Primordial Daoist Master.
Also considering these Foundation Establishment levels were all Ascenders and disciples of Qian Yuan.
So he had plenty of reasons to suspect... that Primordial Daoist Master is most likely closely connected to Qian Yuan.
This could explain why Wu Shuang chose Qian Yuan as her Daoist companion back then.
Since a Primordial Daoist Master is involved, Yuyang Daoist didn’t want to engage for the time being.
He even feared to avoid it as much as possible.
"I just don’t know how Qi’er is progressing over there?"
Yuyang Daoist murmured to himself.
....
The sands of time flowed on, and another hundred years passed.
This century was not peaceful.
Due to the Unrivaled Dao Palace monopolizing a large number of Immortal Register spots, various Dao Palaces, Dao Mansions, and Dao Institutes united to try to amend the rules, excluding Foundation Establishment Cultivators from Immortal Register appointments.
The Unrivaled Dao Palace naturally didn’t agree.
After numerous discussions and negotiations, consensus was reached: each time, half of the spots would still be allotted according to the new waiting list rules, while the other half would be distributed through competitions.
Under these new queue rules, no one had priority.
Foundation Establishment Cultivators, prospective Immortal Register disciples, or servant disciples who break through to Heavenly Immortal, all have no priority — they can only queue according to the time they applied for the Immortal Register.
Moreover, the two plans don’t conflict.
While queuing, one can also participate in the competitions to strive for the Immortal Register.
In these hundred years, the Feathered Immortal Sect conducted multiple Immortal Register appointments.
In every instance without exception, the Unrivaled Dao Palace achieved great victories, each time winning almost half of the spots... The reason is simple: as long as Foundation Establishment is achieved, one can condense a Principle Seed.
The combat power of Foundation Establishment Cultivators often overpowers other candidates.
So within a short hundred years, the Unrivaled Dao Palace increased by nearly a hundred Immortal Register disciples.
Moreover, not only Immortal Register disciples, but the number of servant disciples in the Unrivaled Dao Palace also reached a staggering figure, almost all of whom are Ascenders from the Longevity Realm.
This also resulted in a situation where other Dao Palaces had no chance to plant spies in the Unrivaled Dao Palace.
In these hundred years, Li Qian spent most of his time in the Earth Immortal Realm, absorbing Immortal Energy, searching for various opportunities and treasures...
Apart from the most dangerous areas like the Suspended World and the Divine Witch Forbidden Land, his footprints spread over tens of thousands of miles within the Divine Witch Forbidden Land area.
He also ventured to the edge of the Divine Witch Forbidden Land... which was a terrifying chasm that severed the connection between the Divine Witch Forbidden Land and the outside world.
In Chenzhong Cave Heaven.
Li Qian sat cross-legged.
Behind him was the Immortal Device Chen Bell.
Wisps of Immortal Energy were released from it, then entered his body, gradually refined by a Divine Infant within him.
He had already stepped into the Nascent Soul Realm more than forty years ago.
Now he was in the Late-stage Nascent Soul Realm.
Such a cultivation speed could be considered extremely rapid.
With ample Immortal Energy, combined with the aid of the Immortal Device Chen Bell, his cultivation had virtually no bottlenecks, being smooth and unhindered.
Upon finishing his cultivation, Li Qian opened his eyes and released a long breath.
He summoned the system interface to check the latest information.
Host: Li Qian.
