This cultivation technique was created solely by Ancestor Daoist Taiqing of Mount Shu and has only ever been practiced by those from Mount Shu. Basically, anyone who practices it can be confirmed as a cultivator from Mount Shu.
“I am Lu Changsheng, the twenty-eighth Sect Leader of Mount Shu.”
“I am Daoist Yuxuan, the tenth Elder of Mount Shu.”
“I am Grandmaster Taixu, the twenty-first Sect Leader of Mount Shu.”
Lu Changsheng and the others declared their identities.
“Very good, none of you have brought shame to our Mount Shu. Wait a minute, you are the twenty-eighth Sect Leader of Mount Shu?”
Grandmaster Tailin thought he had misheard.
The founder of Mount Shu in the Immortal Realm isn’t the ninth or the tenth Sect Leader, but the twenty-eighth Sect Leader?
How could this twenty-eighth Sect Leader be stronger than the tenth Elder and the twenty-first Sect Leader?
“Senior, why have you appeared here?” Your next read is at empire
Lu Changsheng held considerable respect for his Mount Shu predecessor.
He planned to build Mount Shu into a sect comparable to a Holy Land, and the addition of Grandmaster Tailin was crucial. Perhaps one day, Grandmaster Tailin would have an epiphany and become an Immortal Emperor, then Mount Shu would have a true Immortal Emperor.
In the Immortal Realm, strength is respected. As long as Mount Shu has a sufficient number of Immortal Emperors, they can sit on an equal footing with the Holy Lands.
“I have been traveling in all directions, pursuing the Sword Dao, and in the process, I have joined other sects. But in recent years, my sect was destroyed by the Blood Sea Palace, so I wandered about. Hearing that there was a Mount Shu here, I came to see for myself, and indeed, it is a sect established by the descendants of Mount Shu.”
“The Blood Sea Palace?”
Lu Changsheng and Daoist Yuxuan looked at each other with shock in their eyes.
The Blood Sea Palace dared to provoke even the Tai Hua Holy Land, and also destroyed the sect where Grandmaster Tailin was, making him wander about. This was far too active and overbearing.
“What does the Blood Sea Palace want to do?”
Daoist Yuxuan thought for a moment, then shook his head.
The Blood Sea Palace dared to offend the Tai Hua Holy Land, and the Blood Demon Ancestor was just one of the Elders there. It was not something he could deal with.
“Does this Grandmaster seem to be an old acquaintance of the Mount Shu Sect Leader?”
“With so many powerful beings joining Mount Shu, it is now no less than the Zhengsheng Sect.”
“So are we the first batch of Elders and Disciples of Mount Shu?”
Hundreds of thousands of candidates were fervently excited after Grandmaster Tailin joined Mount Shu.
The future of Mount Shu looked promising, and they feared not having support by joining the sect.
Seeing Grandmaster Tailin, who was of even higher cultivation, joining Mount Shu, the Red-Bearded Daoist also firmly believed that Lu Changsheng was at the Immortal Emperor Realm and therefore did not dare to cause trouble.
Following the Red-Bearded Daoist and Grandmaster Tailin, another second-layer Daluo Golden Immortal, Daoist Mingzhen, also pledged allegiance to Mount Shu.
“There are a total of three Golden Immortals, one half-step Golden Immortal, forty-nine Heavenly Immortals, and one hundred and seventy-two Earth Immortals.”
Grandmaster Taixu counted the final number of Loose Immortals who joined Mount Shu.
Now, Mount Shu had more than two hundred Loose Immortals, and its strength had greatly increased, not inferior to the Zhengsheng Sect at all.
Lu Changsheng, Daoist Yuxuan, Su Xiaoqi, Shangguan Zhao’er, Fairy Qingxia, Grandmaster Tailin, the Red-Bearded Daoist, Daoist Mingzhen, a total of eight Daluo Golden Immortals.
In addition, several of Lu Changsheng’s disciples, along with Grandmaster Taixu, all had the potential to become Daluo Golden Immortals.
Mount Shu gained more than two hundred Elders, and these Elders were also eligible to recruit disciples during this grand discipleship ceremony.
Grandmaster Taixu continued to announce, “Next, the Loose Cultivators at the Unity Realm will test their aptitude.”
After the Loose Immortals tested their qualifications, it was time for the Unity Realm candidates to come forward and test their aptitude.
“Young master, our Ancient Yun Family is now relying on you.”
An old servant sent a young master forward to test for his qualifications.
The young master stood in front of the Gallbladder Mirror alongside a line of candidates, and the Gallbladder Mirror burst forth with brilliant golden light.
“Yun Xuan, third layer of Unity Realm, Root Bone at top-top-top grade, Comprehension at top-top grade, Qi Destiny at top grade, with the special constitution ‘Five Thunder Imperial Body’.”
“The Five Thunder Imperial Body?!”
“It is said that it’s a special constitution that greatly increases the likelihood of becoming an Immortal Emperor and offers a tremendous advantage in practicing the Five Thunder Skills!”
The audience thought that the group of Loose Immortals was already the batch with the highest qualifications; they didn’t expect that there were even more exceptional geniuses at the Unity Realm!
The Red-Bearded Daoist, Daoist Mingzhen, Virtue Taoist, and Mysterious Fire Daoist — these Golden Immortals and Heavenly Immortals — all had eager looks in their eyes.
Such talent is the perfect choice for a disciple!
Just the name ‘Five Thunder Imperial Body’ indicated this person’s potential to become an Immortal Emperor.
Cultivating an Immortal Emperor as a disciple is the dream of many masters!
However, the many Elders all turned their gazes towards Lu Changsheng.
As the Sect Leader, Lu Changsheng had the greatest say, and was recognized as the strongest present.
Yun Xuan clenched his fists, watching Lu Changsheng nervously, hoping to be accepted as a direct disciple.
Although Lu Changsheng was not as powerful as the Holy Land’s strongmen, he was still one of the few openly accepting disciples and was regarded as an “Immortal Emperor.” If he could enter his school and learn his skills, he might be able to revive the Ancient Yun Family.
All eyes were fixed on Lu Changsheng.
Lu Changsheng remained indifferent, yet he made no overtures.
Lu Changsheng also felt strange.
Logically speaking, being at the Immortal Emperor Realm was only a step away from the Longevity Path, the limit for most cultivators.
The Five Thunder Imperial Body also possessed the qualifications to become an Immortal Emperor, which should have been sufficient. Yet, the Disciple Apprenticeship Simulator found Yun Xuan inadequate for discipleship.
After arriving in the Immortal Realm, the Disciple Apprenticeship Simulator’s admission criteria seemed to be getting higher, not even considering the Five Thunder Imperial Body as worthy?
The lack of response from the Disciple Apprenticeship Simulator made Lu Changsheng appear even more aloof.
In the end, Lu Changsheng shook his head.
“How is this possible!”
“What does the Sect Leader mean by this?”
All the Elders and disciples of Mount Shu, along with the candidates, were all astounded.
