A Grudge, Three Months Passed

"Reclaiming wasteland? Does your Luozhen Sect want to reclaim wasteland so early?" Zhang Jianchen frowned.

Clearing land is no child's play; it will inevitably be accompanied by various dangers.

Therefore, to go and explore new lands, one must first be strong.

Currently, almost all the forces applying to open up new lands have cultivators at the Dao Union or even Void Refinement levels in charge.

Zhang Jianchen naturally knew that several Spirit Transformation had suddenly appeared in the Luozhen Sect.

But frankly, these few Spirit Transformation cultivators are simply not worth mentioning.

The dangers within the Great Wilderness are beyond the capabilities of even Spirit Transformation cultivators.

"Yes, the Luozhen Sect wants to explore the wilderness, but not deep into the Great Wilderness, but rather wander around Great Wilderness outskirts."

"I'm not stupid enough to challenge the depths of the Great Wilderness," Li Yunjing said.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Jianchen's brows relaxed.

If it's just about clearing land on the outskirts of the Great Wilderness, it's alright. Although there are dangers, they are manageable for Spirit Transformation cultivators.

"But, since that's the case, the Immortal Alliance will definitely give its full support to the Luozhen Sect."

"Here's what we'll do," Zhang Jianchen said. "Once your Luozhen Sect completes its land reclamation, the Immortal Alliance will immediately send people to help Luozhen Sect build a suitable base, and will also send people to assist Luozhen Sect in establishing a firm foothold in the reclaimed land."

Li Yunjing nodded slightly. "Thank you, Alliance Leader. In that case, I have nothing else to say."

"You don't have anything else to say, but I do," Zhang Jianchen said with a smile.

"Could you please bring out the Five Aggregates Cauldron so I can have a look at it?"

Li Yunjing was taken aback. "I need to ask Five Spirits Lord if he's willing to show himself."

No sooner had Li Yunjing finished speaking than Five Spirits Lord appeared out of nowhere, standing in front of Zhang Jianchen.

In his hand, however, lay his true form.

"This is the Five Aggregates Cauldron. Please look at whatever you wish to see."

Five Spirits Lord looked at Zhang Jianchen and said expressionlessly.

Zhang Jianchen's breathing immediately became weak; he sensed that the person before him was far more powerful than himself.

He could probably be crushed to death with a single finger.

"Yunjing, who is this...?" Zhang Jianchen immediately looked at Li Yunjing for help.

Li Yunjing said, "Alliance Leader, this is the spirit of the Five Aggregates Cauldron, the Five Spirits Lord. The broken cauldron in his hand is the Immortal Artifact, the Five Aggregates Cauldron."

"Because it has been fallen to the mortal realm for too long, the Five Aggregates Cauldron was severely damaged, but it has been slightly restored at present."

Zhang Jianchen nodded slowly, first glancing at the Five Aggregates Cauldron, then looking at the Five Spirits Lord.

"Zhang Jianchen, leader of the Lower Immortal Alliance, pays respects to the Five Spirits High Immortal." Zhang Jianchen bowed respectfully.

Upon hearing this, Five Spirits Lord's face flashed with reminiscence. "How long has it been since I've heard anyone call me that... Five Spirits High Immortal..."

After reminiscing, Five Spirits Lord looked at Zhang Jianchen: "You are the leader of the Lower Immortal Alliance, so do you know a guy named Duan Yong?"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Jianchen hesitated.

"Duan Yong... Could the Five Spirits High Immortal refer to Patriarch Juechen?"

Upon hearing this, Five Spirits Lord immediately nodded. "That's right, I almost forgot that this guy also has a Daoist title, Sword Lord Juechen."

"You know the Immortal and Patriarch Juechen? Are they friends?" Zhang Jianchen asked with delight.

The Five Spirits Lord smiled at this moment, but it was a mocking smile.

"No, I have a grudge against him."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Jianchen's smile froze instantly.

This is terrible!

The inquiry about the Immortal Alliance's founder suggests he's seeking revenge.

Zhang Jianchen immediately tensed up. If this immortal in front of them got angry, they wouldn't be able to stop him.

Five Spirits Lord continued with a laugh, "Don't worry, although I have a grudge against him, I know my limits. I wouldn't do something like attacking you."

"Are you able to contact Juechen?"

After a moment's consideration, Zhang Jianchen replied, "Patriarch Juechen is still alive. The Immortal Alliance can contact him, but I can't be sure whether he will respond."

"It's alright. Since you can contact him, then send him my message and tell him to wait for me in the Immortal Realm. Keep the thing that you stole from me safe for me."

"Once I return to the Immortal Realm, I will personally visit him to settle that score," said the Five Spirits Lord.

After saying this, Five Spirits Lord immediately disappeared.

Zhang Jianchen breathed a sigh of relief, but a sense of unease crept into his mind.

"What bad luck! I actually stumbled upon Immortal Artifact that has a grudge against my own ancestor..."

At this moment, Li Yunjing also looked slightly embarrassed.

"Alliance Leader, I never expected things to develop to this point."

Zhang Jianchen shook his head and said, "It's not your fault, I didn't expect it either."

Since what Five Spirits Lord said seemed very important, Zhang Jianchen needed to contact the ancestor in the upper realm immediately, so Zhang Jianchen promptly sent Li Yunjing Luozhen Sect.

The dizzying sensation returned, and Li Yunjing was back in his cave abode.

Upon their return, the Five Spirits Lord appeared on their own.

"The Immortal Spirit Qi has been refined, and the Five Aggregates Cauldron has recovered about 10% of its power. Would you like to try it out?"

Upon hearing this, Li Yunjing's eyes flashed with curiosity. "Let's give it a try."

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Yunjing found himself leaving his cave abode and arriving in a completely new place.

"This is the interior of the Five Aggregates Cauldron. Inside, you will undergo the trials of the Five Aggregates Cauldron," Five Spirits Lord explained to Li Yunjing.

"Training?" Li Yunjing was puzzled.

Five Spirits Lord nodded. "That's right. Although the Five Aggregates Cauldron has earth-shattering combat capabilities, it can also play a good role in auxiliary functions."

The Five Aggregates Cauldron can utilize the five elements to temper a person. If you can pass the first level of tempering by the Five Aggregates Cauldron, you will be able to enter the Nascent Soul realm.

Upon hearing this, Li Yunjing was deeply shocked.

Can one truly reach the Nascent Soul simply by passing the first level of training?

"What about through more training?" Li Yunjing couldn't help but ask, full of curiosity.

"Naturally, it's because of a higher level of cultivation," said the Five Spirits Lord.

"Of course, it's not just about increasing your cultivation level; you can also gain access to other profound mysteries. You'll have to experience it for yourself; I can't say too much."

Li Yunjing nodded. "Then let's begin."

"No rush, let me explain a few things to you first..." said Five Spirits Lord.

Time flies, and March passed by in the blink of an eye.

Since the last failed attack on the Luozhen Sect by the Devil Cultivator, the Five Aggregates Plain Five Aggregates Plain been in a long period of peace and has regained its former vitality.

In those three months, there was only one thing that could be considered a major event.

An organization called the Luozhen Chamber of Commerce of Commerce suddenly appeared in everyone's sight.

As soon as the Luozhen Chamber of Commerce appeared, it established cooperation with various major sects.

Furthermore, treasure pavilions were established in all the markets and towns within the Five Aggregates Plain, selling items of extremely high quality at affordable prices.

The powerful entity behind the Luozhen Chamber of Commerce is the Luozhen Sect.

The incident three months ago has also spread, so the prestige of the Luozhen Sect within Five Aggregates Plain is already quite high.

This facilitated the smoother development of the Luozhen Chamber of Commerce.

Serene Valley, Luozhen Sect

The number of disciples in the Luozhen Sect has increased significantly.

This time, the disciples were recruited by Nangong Chengyu.

There are thirty new disciples joining the Luozhen Sect, all of whom were recruited from the Annan Kingdom.

Two months ago, Nangong Chengyu went to the Annan Kingdom via the teleportation array of the Luozhen Sect.

They also brought back people from the Annan Kingdom, such as Hu An, Hu Ruizhu, and Hu Ruiyang.

After arriving in the Annan Kingdom, Nangong Chengyu established a branch of the Luozhen Sect in the Annan Kingdom to help the Annan Kingdom overcome its crisis.

Therefore, Annan Kingdom can now be considered the territory of the Luozhen Sect.
