Realms Above Earth Immortal
Sometimes, Bai Qiuran really felt that the Righteous Path Alliance and the Demonic Sect Alliance were like children.
They are enemies, but in reality they are very close. However, sometimes they fight over a disagreement. Whenever this happens, in order to prevent the second war between good and evil from starting, Bai Qiuran and Su Xiangxue have to mediate and even use force to suppress a few troublemakers.
He felt that he and Su Xiangxue were like parents surrounded by unruly children. When these children acted up, it was always the parents who felt the most headache.
The two sides at the Wisdom Immortal Cave Abode were locked in a tense standoff. The instigators were Jueyunzi of the Azure Nether Sword Sect and Ji Lingyun of the Heavenly Demon Sect. They were locked in a fierce confrontation, neither willing to give way, and both wanted to seize ownership of Wisdom Immortal Cave Abode.
The former claimed that the capture of this Cave Abode was all thanks to his own Martial Ancestor Uncle, while the latter said that the discovery of this place was due to clues provided by his own Grand Elder Sword Ancestor. The former insisted that the Righteous Path Alliance should take over the Cave Abode, while the latter believed that the Demonic Sect Alliance should also get a share.
Before they could exchange more than a few words, the exchange escalated into personal attacks, dragging in the Sect Master of various allied sects, who were now locked in a standoff.
Although the Righteous Path Alliance has two more members, the Demonic Sect Alliance has an additional Grand Elder at the Mahayana Stage. Therefore, once the battle begins, it will likely be a close and evenly matched contest.
Therefore, after Bai Qiuran learned about the situation from the calmest person, the Jade-Faced Buddha, the leader of the Heavenly Saint Buddhist Sect, who was standing at the back with a wry smile, he first knocked everyone except the Jade-Faced Buddha to the ground. Then, Su Xiangxue stepped forward to soothe them with kind words and calm them down before slowly negotiating with them.
The combination of fists and kind words had an immediate effect. The Sect Master of all the major sects were forced to calm down, and with bruised and swollen faces, they sat together again and began to calmly discuss the ownership of the Wisdom Immortal Cave Abode.
The focus of the dispute between the two sides returned to the question of where the Wisdom Immortal Cave Abode should be located and who should be in charge of it. However, after Wisdom Immortal suggested that "Spatial Teleportation Formation could be used to bring all the sects to the Wisdom Immortal Cave Abode" and explained that "the Wisdom Immortal Cave Abode exists in another small space outside the Ten Lands of Jiuzhou," the two sides finally made a decision.
The entrance to the Wisdom Immortal Cave Abode will remain here, along with the Earth Immortal Ancient City. After learning the Spatial Teleportation Formation taught by Wisdom Immortal, the various sects will connect to the Wisdom Immortal Cave Abode using the Spatial Teleportation Formation.
The Wisdom Immortal Cave Abode and the Earth Immortal Ancient City were designated as neutral zones by the Righteous Path Alliance and the Demonic Sect Alliance, with each super sect from both sides sending one to guard these two places, rotating every ten years.
Other sects that have joined the alliance can also freely enter the Wisdom Immortal Cave Abode after obtaining permission from the alliance, to learn Secret Manual, seek opportunities, or hone themselves in trials.
With that, the matter of the Wisdom Immortal Cave Abode was finally brought to a close, and the leaders of the various sects quickly got busy organizing Secret Manual, setting up Formation, taking inventory of magical Magic Treasure... and there were still many things left for them to do.
However, Bai Qiuran led a group of disciples who wanted to return and leisurely returned to the Azure Nether Sword Sect.
Despite her busy schedule, Su Xiangxue had already relayed the order to search for the Imperial Mausoleum of the First Ancestor Demon Emperor to the intelligence network of the Hehuan Sect. At the same time, Bai Qiuran also mobilized the intelligence network of the Azure Nether Sword Sect with her massive amount of sect contribution points.
However, since the investigation was ultimately about the Imperial Mausoleum of the First Ancestor Demon Emperor, all intelligence gathering had to be conducted in the Demon Realm. Due to the Monster Race's xenophobic nature, it was extremely difficult for Human Race to enter the Demon Realm, so Bai Qiuran wasn't in a hurry.
This investigation alone would likely take five or six years to begin, not to mention finding the tomb of a Monster Race ancestor who died countless millennia ago.
As Xue Ling said, "He who travels a hundred miles is only halfway there at ninety." Although Bai Qiuran was displeased, she had actually already prepared herself for a protracted battle.
Finding the Imperial Mausoleum of the First Ancestor Demon Emperor could take as long as three thousand years.
So for the next period of time, Bai Qiuran secluded herself on Seven Star Peak to learn the techniques of the previous era from Wisdom Immortal.
Don't give up, don't give up.
On the Cliff edge of Seven Star Peak, the Skull Wisdom Immortal, whom Bai Qiuran placed beside him, comforted him, saying, "You've endured three thousand years, and the Ghost Realm hasn't taken you away. You'll only become stronger in the future, so don't worry, the Ghost Realm can't take you away."
Can't you say something nice?
Bai Qiuran sighed and threw the folded paper crane in her hand away.
The paper crane swayed in the mountain wind, and suddenly seemed to gain sentience. It flapped its Wings and flew away on its own, disappearing into the horizon at an extremely fast speed.
This was a new Divine Ability he had learned from the era of the Holy Dynasty 'Earth Immortal. As for his teacher, it was naturally the Wisdom Immortal standing to the side.
During the Holy Dynasty, the Earth Immortal successfully grasped the basics of life and death. Based on this, they designed Divine Ability that could grant life to inanimate objects or deprive living beings of their Lifespan. These Divine Ability were originally intended for use by Earth Immortal, but with the help of the Wisdom Immortal, Bai Qiuran modified them so that he, Cultivators in the Qi Refining Stage, could use them.
He imbued these paper cranes with life, and once they flew away, they became his eyes and ears, helping him find clues to the Imperial Mausoleum of the First Ancestor Demon Emperor, much like drones.
It is foreseeable that for a long time to come, such paper-like life forms will likely be frequently seen flying across the skies of the Demon Realm.
"Speaking of which, what did Su Xiangxue say to you when she came to see you alone that day?"
While idly folding paper, Bai Qiuran asked lazily.
"That little girl, she came to ask me how to become Earth Immortal."
Wisdom Immortal replied, "She said she didn't want to become Heavenly Immortal yet, nor did she want to die when her Lifespan was exhausted, so I taught her the method to become Earth Immortal."
"Does becoming Earth Immortal mean having an endless Lifespan?"
Bai Qiuran asked.
"Of course, even Earth Immortal is still Immortals. While their Lifespan may not be infinite, they can at least live as long as the heavens."
Wisdom Immortal shook the Skull slightly.
"It's just that we didn't Ascension the Immortal Realm, and we didn't receive the Immortal Qi to Body Tempering, so we might be slightly weaker than Celestial Heavenly Immortal of the same level... Moreover, after reaching the Great Perfection of the Earth Immortal Realm, we can no longer improve."
Is it because of the restrictions of the Heavenly Dao Rules?
Bai Qiuran asked.
"It's because there are no more Cultivation Technique to improve. Everyone has reached their limit and can't progress any further, so they feel lost."
"In the tens of thousands of years of history of the Holy Dynasty, has no one been able to create a method that goes further?"
Bai Qiuran wondered.
"Do you think everyone is as twisted as you, you 'Heaven's Envy'? Human strength has its limits, and back then we were constantly fighting against the Monster Race Demon Race. The most talented people, every day when they woke up, the first thing they thought about was how to get the Human Race to kill those bastards from the Monster Race and Demon Races, okay? And later, when peace came, many Earth Immortal felt that the Human Race was secure and didn't want to work anymore, so they chose to Ascension directly."
Wisdom Immortal replied, "In a way, I Sacrifice my Desire for Great Wisdom in the hope of finding immortal cultivation Cultivation Technique, but unfortunately, I didn't live to see that day. However, I once gleaned information from the Ruin of the Eastern Azure Immortal Dynasty. The Eastern Azure Immortal Dynasty once possessed Cultivation Technique that could elevate the cultivation level of Earth Immortal, but unfortunately, they were all lost with the demise of the Eastern Azure Immortal Dynasty."
That's a real shame.
Bai Qiuran sighed.
