Plucking the Sixth Fruit

Nine Heavens Azure Dao Lord, far away in Youhai Continent, immediately contacted Chihun, Zhenhui, and the others, expressing her friendly stance.

Perhaps Dao Lord Biluo had yet to find a good "reason" to speak directly with Li Qingyun. Whenever anything arose, she instead sought out Spiritual Treasure Ancestors such as Chihun and Zhenhui, with whom she was more familiar.

Still more people caught the scent of "opportunity" in this.

For a time, the Eastern Desolation Domain Temple received quite a few opportunists who had come early to "pay homage at the mountain gate," most of them wandering Dao Lords from other continents.

Li Qingyun also showed an appreciation for talent, selecting the best among them and accepting some Dao Lords of the Fourth and Fifth Fruit Positions.

In any case, the Eastern Desolation Domain Temple already possessed a vast number of vacant Daoist Temples.

Those wandering people who had actively come to seek refuge also successively became disciples of the Three Pure Ones.
