Intercepting Sect's First Disciple: Xian Junyu

The Primordial World.

On Mount Kunlun.

"I, Jade Clarity Yuanshi... establish the Heavenly Origin Sect!"

"I, Upper Clarity Tongtian, now establish a sect named Intercept, which shall intercept a sliver of life for all beings. It shall have no distinctions, and all who are fated may enter the Intercept Sect. With the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation to suppress its destiny, the Intercept Sect is established!"

Following the establishment of the Renjiao sect and the subsequent sainthood of Grand Pure One Laozi, Jade Clarity Yuanshi and Upper Clarity Tongtian also quickly followed, achieving sainthood one after another.

Seeing that the Three Pure Ones in the east had all become saints, Jieyin and Zhunti, located in the west, were unwilling to be outdone. They emulated the Three Pure Ones, receiving the mandate of heaven and earth, and made grand vows to become saints.

Today, five saints appeared simultaneously, with golden lotuses springing from the earth, the sky filled with radiant light, and the world trembling.

On Mount Kunlun, outside a cave dwelling, a young man in white gazed at the scene before him, sighing with emotion.

"To be fortunate enough to witness five saints appear today is not in vain for my second life..."

The young man's name was Xian Junyu, the first celestial energy to take form in the world, and the sole disciple of Daoist Tongtian of the Upper Clarity.

Of course, he had another identity: a transmigator from Earth.

He was originally an ordinary office worker in Dragon Country on Earth. One day, while at work, a flash of white light appeared before his eyes, and he found himself here.

Just as his transformation was complete, he was brought back to Mount Kunlun by the passing Tongtian and accepted as a disciple.

As the first celestial energy to take form, his foundation and talent were quite good; he had the cultivation of the Earth Immortal Realm upon birth.

After being brought back to Mount Kunlun by Tongtian, he discovered that his rescuer was Daoist Tongtian, the Sect Master of Upper Clarity. Knowing the plot, he was acutely aware of the tragic fate that awaited the Intercept Sect in the end.

However, having been brought to Mount Kunlun, there was nothing he could do.

Escape? Trying to escape from a peak Quasi-Saint expert was seeking death!

Refuse Tongtian and say he didn't want to follow him? That would likely lead to an even more miserable end.

Xian Junyu knew his own limitations; he had no place among the Saints, and he knew he lacked the ability to walk the Primordial Path.

To fully enjoy tens of thousands of years before the Investiture of the Gods Tribulation arrived, he chose to simply lie flat, never standing when he could sit, and never sitting when he could lie down.

In short, he did whatever was most comfortable.

"Master has become a saint. It seems my good days are numbered. Alas... what a bitter fate!" Xian Junyu muttered with a sigh.

However, just as he was mumbling to himself, Tongtian's voice echoed from a distance.

"Yu'er, stop sighing and come here for a moment!"

"Yes, Master..."

Xian Junyu replied listlessly.

Thinking that once the Investiture of the Gods Tribulation arrived, he would either be killed and placed on the list or be captured to do hard labor, he lost all motivation for anything.

Upon arriving at his Master's dojo.

Gazing at his Master seated high before him, Xian Junyu immediately cupped his hands and bowed.

"Disciple Xian Junyu greets Master. Congratulations on Master achieving the Saintly position..."

As he spoke, he forced a smile.

The alarm bells of the Investiture of the Gods Tribulation had already begun to ring; it would be strange if he could be happy.

"You say that so reluctantly, with no sincerity at all!" Tongtian looked at his only disciple before him with some helplessness.

This, his only disciple, had been with him for over a thousand years, yet his cultivation was still only at the Mid-Earth Immortal Realm. Compared to when he first joined, he had only advanced one minor realm.

As a being of innate origin, his foundation and talent were not poor. The Earth Immortal Realm was nothing; advancing from early to mid-stage should have been easy, not taking so many years.

In other words, his disciple had barely cultivated for a thousand years.

"Yu'er, Yu'er, what exactly are you thinking? You don't cultivate in your cave dwelling, you don't desire spiritual treasures, and you don't cultivate. After so long, you're still a minor Earth Immortal..."

"What exactly are you dissatisfied with? Tell me, Master, and I will satisfy all your requests!"

Tongtian spoke gently, showing no anger.

After achieving the Saintly position, there was almost nothing in heaven and earth that he could not accomplish. For this disciple, he would go to any lengths.

As long as his disciple asked, even if they desired something belonging to someone else, he would cast aside his Saintly dignity and seize it.

Xian Junyu naturally knew of his Master's kindness towards him. However, what he needed was safety, which his Master could not provide. Once the Investiture of the Gods Tribulation arrived, even his Master would struggle to protect himself.

"Thank you for your kindness, Master, but your disciple desires nothing and seeks nothing. I only wish to live out the rest of my life in peace..."

However, before Xian Junyu could finish speaking, Tongtian interrupted him directly and reprimanded him:

"Nonsense! As a cultivator who defies heaven, the path is one of great freedom. How can you say you desire nothing and seek nothing!"

"If everyone were like you, what would be the meaning of cultivators' existence? You are..."

Seeing his disciple lower his head in silence, Tongtian's words, which were about to turn into scolding, ultimately did not come out.

"Alas... forget it, forget it. Let fate decide..."

"Now that my Intercept Sect has just been established, it won't be long before people come to seek discipleship. Go and guide them..."

Without further reprimanding Xian Junyu, Tongtian directly stated the purpose of his summons.

As his only precious disciple, he truly couldn't bear to scold him. He wouldn't have spoken if it wasn't absolutely necessary.

"Yes, disciple remembers!"

"Sigh... go, go..."

After a sigh, Tongtian slightly raised his hand and directly sent Xian Junyu away.

At the same time, he worried about his disciple in his heart. With the establishment of the Intercepting Sect, many people would surely come in the future. Once these disciples entered, how would his disciple, with his Earth Immortal cultivation, position himself...

On the surface, with him present, he believed no one would say anything, but privately...

"Forget it, we'll take it one step at a time. Perhaps one day Junyu will figure it out himself!"

Meanwhile, In the blink of an eye, Xian Junyu returned to his cave dwelling. Recalling his Master's scolding just now, he gave a wry smile and shook his head, lying back on the recliner without a care.

He completely embodied the meaning of "lying flat."

What was the point of cultivating to Grand Unity, or even Quasi-Saint? Without becoming a Saint, one was still an ant. Moreover, during the Investiture of the Gods Tribulation, even his Master, a Saint, was schemed against.

Rather than wasting time and ultimately being schemed to death, it was better to enjoy the present. To be happy for ten thousand years was ten thousand years.

Although his Master had given him a task, he still had time to relax for now. The Five Saints had all established their traditions, and those who wanted to join a Saint's discipleship had to consider who to join.

Besides, it took time to travel to Mount Kunlun; it wasn't a place one could reach instantly.

For now, he could only rest for a few days. It was estimated that it wouldn't be long before someone came knocking.

At the same time, Daoist Duobao, a rogue cultivator thousands of miles away, also began to consider joining a Saint's discipleship.

"As a mere rogue cultivator, it's too difficult to travel the Primordial World without a backer. If there were a Saint behind me, everything would be much safer!"

"However, with the Five Saints now appearing, choosing which Saint to join is another problem..."

"The two Saints in the West, their region is too barren, so I won't even consider them. As for the other three, they are all good choices!"

Duobao still hadn't decided which Saint to join, but he completely dismissed Jieyin and Zhunti.

The other three Saints were all on Mount Kunlun, so he decided to go to Mount Kunlun first.

Green lotus, white lotus root, and lotus leaves; the Three Pure Ones were originally one family. If they were all one family, it wouldn't matter much who one joined.
