Grandmaster Taixu discovered that the spiritual energy of nature at Accumulated Thunder Mountain was even more abundant, so he suggested to Lu Changsheng that Mount Shu be relocated to Accumulated Thunder Mountain.
The King of Chaos chose Accumulated Thunder Mountain as the place for his cultivation cave dwelling, which compared to Tianxuan Mountain, was more suitable for establishing a sect.
Lu Changsheng was the Sect Leader of Mount Shu in the Immortal Realm, while Grandmaster Taixu took his place in managing the sect, prioritizing the wellbeing of the sect, and he thought of relocating the sect immediately.
Tianxuan Mountain was too close to Jinglong Mountain, with its spiritual energy of nature having been taken by Jinglong Mountain, and after the annihilation of the Demon Race on Accumulated Thunder Mountain, there were no powerful human sects within a million miles, conveniently creating a power vacuum.
“Mm.”
Lu Changsheng agreed with Grandmaster Taixu’s view.
Indeed, Accumulated Thunder Mountain was one of the Cave Heaven Blessed Lands, and Lu Changsheng possessed the Gathering Spirit Colorful Lotus, an eighteen-grade Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure capable of gathering the spiritual energy of nature within a million miles. Once transformed by the Gathering Spirit Colorful Lotus, the concentration of Accumulated Thunder Mountain’s spiritual energy of nature could even be compared to that of a Holy Land.
Previously, as Lu Changsheng’s cultivation was not sufficient, he hardly managed Mount Shu. After entrusting Mount Shu to Grandmaster Taixu, he became a hands-off manager.
Now, Lu Changsheng had the strength to defeat the King of Chaos, enough to establish a sect comparable to Zhengsheng Sect.
“Master, I plan to stay here for a while.”
Free from the coercion of the King of Chaos, Fairy Qingxia decided to stay and deal with the matter of relocating Mount Shu with Grandmaster Taixu.
The Sect Leader of Liuyun Pavilion did not say much, nodded in agreement, and returned to the Yuhua Domain with the elders and disciples of Liuyun Pavilion.
Both Fairy Qingxia and Grandmaster Taixu had the potential to become Immortal Emperors, and their growth would be of the greatest help to Liuyun Pavilion.
“Daoist Yuxuan, now that the matter here is settled, let us return to Zhengsheng Sect to cultivate.”
“Thank you both for your efforts.”
Daoist Luo Yu and Star Sword Daoist headed back home.
At Tianxuan Mountain, the elders and disciples of Mount Shu were cultivating within the sect; Lu Changsheng and Grandmaster Taixu returned to the sect.
“Elder Luo, inform everyone in the sect, in three days, we will relocate Mount Shu to another mountain peak.”
“Sect Leader, where are we going?”
Elder Luo was taken aback that Lu Changsheng announced the relocation of Mount Shu as soon as he returned.
“Accumulated Thunder Mountain.”
“Accumulated Thunder Mountain? Isn’t that the territory of the Demon Race? I heard that the lord of Accumulated Thunder Mountain is the King of Chaos, notorious among the Demon Race. Going to Accumulated Thunder Mountain, isn’t that like seeking death?”
“The King of Chaos has been slain by me, and now Accumulated Thunder Mountain is a land without a master. From now on, it will be the gateway of our Mount Shu.”
“What?! The King of Chaos was killed by you, Sect Leader?”
Elder Luo was dumbfounded.
The King of Chaos was a Golden Immortal Realm Demon King, after all.
In just thirty thousand years since their Sect Leader left, he had gained the strength to kill the King of Chaos!
The news of Mount Shu’s impending relocation to Accumulated Thunder Mountain spread, and the entire sect was astounded.
They could never have dreamed that their small sect in Cangyu could have the opportunity to move to a Cave Heaven Blessed Land such as Accumulated Thunder Mountain.
And their Sect Leader had even slain the King of Chaos who had ruled over Accumulated Thunder Mountain.
If the Sect Leader’s strength was such, then as long as the Sect Leader did not perish on the way, Mount Shu would certainly become a powerful Immortal Sect in the Immortal Realm.
“I would ask you, predecessor, to hold an honorary position in our Mount Shu, to take on the role of guest elder.”
Lu Changsheng invited Daoist Yuxuan to hold an honorary position in Mount Shu of the Immortal Realm.
He especially created the position of guest elder for the sect.
Guest elders need not reside permanently at the sect and only need to hold the title. When the sect encounters difficulties, they may decide for themselves whether to intervene and help.
“Hahaha, no problem.”
Daoist Yuxuan was a genius figure who had ascended from the mortal Mount Shu and had an indescribable affection for it, hence he naturally agreed to the request.
“Shangguan, Fairy Qingxia, what about you?”
Lu Changsheng planned to start developing the sect in earnest and should, therefore, entice as many strong cultivators as possible to join the sect at this time.
Shangguan Zhao’er and Fairy Qingxia were Golden Immortals; even taking on the role of guest elder in Mount Shu would be impressive.
Shangguan Zhao’er lightly brushed her hair aside: “Mm.”
Fairy Qingxia and Grandmaster Taixu exchanged glances: “With Taixu in Mount Shu, and I just in a nominal role, it should be fine.”
With this development, Mount Shu could boast of having two Golden Immortals, Lu Changsheng and Su Xiaoqi, in addition to three guest Elders who are also Golden Immortals: Daoist Yuxuan, Shangguan Zhao’er, and Fairy Qingxia, making a total of five Golden Immortals to declare to the outside world.
If Qingyue Fairy had not been the Temple Master of Jing Long Immortal Temple, Lu Changsheng would have even considered inviting her to hold an honorary position at Mount Shu.
Qingyue Fairy was even stronger than Lu Changsheng had imagined.
But for some reason, Qingyue Fairy did not seem to like to use her full strength.
Lu Changsheng’s direct disciples would surely become Golden Immortals in the future, which meant, in other words, that Mount Shu could potentially have more than ten Daluo Golden Immortals, rivaling the might of Zhengsheng Sect.
The entire Mount Shu Sect relocated to Accumulated Thunder Mountain.
The main peak of Accumulated Thunder Mountain had not been completely destroyed and retained a vast amount of cultivation resources.
Lu Changsheng repaired the Spirit Gathering Array of Accumulated Thunder Mountain, and nature’s spiritual energy from a radius of a million miles began to converge once more towards Accumulated Thunder Mountain, transforming it from a land tainted with Demonic Qi into a Cave Heaven Blessed Land.
The main peak of Accumulated Thunder Mountain became the place where Lu Changsheng and his disciples practiced their cultivation.
Lu Changsheng summoned the Gathering Spirit Colorful Lotus and anchored it in the dwelling.
The Gathering Spirit Colorful Lotus attracted Hongmeng Purple Qi from the Void, accelerating the speed of Lu Changsheng’s cultivation.
The Gathering Spirit Colorful Lotus was also capable of accumulating nature’s spiritual energy.
Accumulated Thunder Mountain was thus equivalent to having two gigantic Spirit Gathering Arrays.
“Accumulated Thunder Mountain really is a Cave Heaven Blessed Land, with more spiritual energy than Tianxuan Mountain.”
“I never thought that one day, I would be able to cultivate in such a Cave Heaven Blessed Land!”
The Elders and disciples of Mount Shu were overjoyed.
They were all Loose Cultivators of meager strength; without joining Mount Shu, how could they have the opportunity to cultivate in a Cave Heaven Blessed Land like Accumulated Thunder Mountain?
“With Mount Shu relocating to Accumulated Thunder Mountain and gaining a prominent reputation, surely Loose Immortals will seek to join us in the future. Perhaps one day, we can become one of the strongest Immortal Sects in the Immortal Realm, maybe even having the chance to stand shoulder to shoulder with Holy Lands.”
When Grandmaster Taixu said this, he glanced at Lu Changsheng out of the corner of his eye.
The aptitude of Lu Changsheng was terrifyingly great, and Grandmaster Taixu had no doubt that Lu Changsheng could become an Immortal Emperor.
If Lu Changsheng became an Immortal Emperor, and with Mount Shu having Accumulated Thunder Mountain as its Sect base, then perhaps Mount Shu really could stand shoulder to shoulder with the Holy Lands someday.
Grandmaster Taixu was eager to see that day arrive.
When Lu Changsheng was in Mount Shu in the Mortal Realm, he had resolved to rebuild Mount Shu in the Immortal Realm, and now he had truly kept his promise.
“From now on, Mount Shu will hold a disciple-recruitment ceremony every thousand years. If any Loose Immortals wish to join Mount Shu at other times, they need only to pass the test of character.”
Lu Changsheng reestablished the Sect rules.
He then said to Grandmaster Taixu and Fairy Qingxia, “Junior would like to teach two senior set of sword techniques.”
“Oh?”
Grandmaster Taixu and Fairy Qingxia were taken aback.
This junior was being outrageously audacious, offering to teach seniors swordsmanship.
“This set of sword techniques can only be cultivated by two people whose hearts and intents are aligned. The higher the cultivations of both parties, the better the tacit understanding, and the greater the power.”
Seeing that Grandmaster Taixu and Fairy Qingxia were a perfect match and had stood the test of over a hundred thousand years, Lu Changsheng decided to pass on this set of sword techniques, which met the conditions for cultivating the Holy Spirit Sword Art, to the pair.
Grandmaster Taixu and Fairy Qingxia also had a unique advantage, as they both possessed the Spirit Sword Physique.
The Spirit Sword Physique could unleash the power of the Holy Spirit Sword Art; the might of the Holy Spirit Sword Art executed by two possessors of fully cultivated Spirit Sword Physiques was beyond imagination.
Once both Grandmaster Taixu and Fairy Qingxia became Immortal Emperors, the Holy Spirit Sword Art would only become more terrifying.
Lu Changsheng condensed the ungraded Holy Spirit Sword Art into a Cultivation Technique scripture and imparted it to the two of them.
“An ungraded swordsmanship?”
“Though ungraded, its power is boundless.”
Both Grandmaster Taixu and Fairy Qingxia were masters of the Sword Dao, and they realized the extraordinary nature of the Holy Spirit Sword Art.
…
Countless miles away from Accumulated Thunder Mountain, in a Sect where boundless Demonic Qi descended, Shen Xiaoyao and Tang Ling’er, along with the other Elders of the Sect, looked up in despair at the oppressive demonic clouds looming above. A demonic claw stretched over the entire Sect, and the Ten Thousand Layer Palace crumbled under the pressure it could no longer withstand.
“If Master were here, he would surely have a way…”
In his moment of despair, Shen Xiaoyao thought of his Master who had initially led him onto the path of cultivation.
