Protagonist:
Xu Zhangqing
Time flew by, and a month later.
Dongting Immortal Sect was no longer as prosperous as before; Tiexue Peak and Hou Tu Peak set out first, leading their members toward the Central Region and Northern Domain.
Xu Zhangqing was unwilling to delay either, for the underground hidden dangers were pressing closer step by step; the sooner the relocation was settled, the more secure it would be.
That day, Water Control Pavilion Lord Mo Qiu Shui brought the disciples of his pavilion, and Spirit Beast Valley Master Mu Yunsheng led a host of spirit beasts and disciples.
Li Sancai and others from the Spirit Fields, Han Su from the Spiritual Veins, all boarded Qingmu Peak.
Xu Zhangqing immediately found Fifth Senior Sister Mu Ning: "Senior Sister, please cooperate with me; I need to drive Qingmu Peak to Fengrao Commandery."
Mu Ning said with a smiling face: "Junior Brother, rest assured; Senior Sister will lend you a hand."
Going to a new place, and moreover a strange place.
She was not only not sad, but rather exceptionally excited.
After all, she had stayed in Dongting Immortal Sect for too long and had long wanted to change environments.
Immediately, Xu Zhangqing's body glowed with green light, still the aura of Golden Core Perfection bursting forth, then the Dao rhythm of Withering and Flourishing flowed.
Mu Ning saw this and cooperated, her own power spreading throughout the entire Qingmu Peak.
With both sides working together, the next moment, the massive Qingmu Peak trembled, the spiritual veins within hummed, and then the whole mountain peak slowly rose, carrying dense Wood Spirit Qi, flying toward the direction of Dongyu, Dafeng Dynasty, Fengrao Commandery.
"The Seven Great Immortal Peaks were all there before, the Immortal Sect was so prosperous, yet now they must each go their separate ways; meeting again in the future will likely be difficult!"
"May Peak Master Xu have a smooth journey this time, may Qingmu Sect find a firm foothold in Fengrao Commandery, so that we too will have a place to go in the future!"
"The Immortal Sect has split, the road ahead is uncertain; may all fellow disciples be safe!"
Seeing this scene, nearby Dongting Immortal Sect disciples and high-level figures could not help but sigh with emotion.
……
……
As Qingmu Peak flew, the surging Wood Spirit Qi was thick enough to condense into substantive mist.
Wherever it passed, the weeds on the ground broke through the soil, and withered trees sprouted new buds.
The plants and trees that were originally withering instantly became lush and verdant, their growth speed several times faster than before.
Cultivators along the way saw this scene and all stopped to look up in amazement.
In less than half a day, Qingmu Peak arrived at Fengrao Commandery of the Dafeng Dynasty.
The Commandery Guard of Fengrao Commandery, who had received the news, dressed in official robes, brought Commandery Officials, along with Wang Han who interfaced between the Immortal Sect and the Dynasty, and the powerful families and merchants within Fengrao Commandery, all stood on the empty ground outside the city, looking forward expectantly.
Suddenly, a dazzling green light appeared on the horizon.
That green light grew even denser, even radiating across half the sky, enveloping the entire Fengrao Commandery in emerald green.
The Wood Spirit Qi in the air began to surge violently, making many people feel refreshed all over.
Everyone looked up and saw a giant tree that covered the sky and blocked the sun slowly descending from the clouds; its trunk was incredibly thick, such that even over a hundred people holding hands could not encircle it.
The branches and leaves of the great tree spread out, covering a radius of a hundred li.
Flowers and grass on the branches bloomed, their fragrance spreading a Thousand Li.
The scene of Spiritual Energy Fenteng was shocking enough to leave one speechless.
After Qingmu Peak landed steadily, its roots took hold in the earth and began to further integrate.
Xu Zhangqing then flew up alone, with a posture to announce to the world, and said in a loud voice: "From today onward, the branch of Dongting Immortal Sect, Qingmu Sect, guards Dongyu Fengyun Commandery.
Those who block us, die!
Those who cause trouble, die!
Those who do not cooperate, die!"
The three "die" words rang out resoundingly, carrying an overbearing attitude that allowed no objection.
It made the eardrums of everyone present buzz, and no one even dared to breathe loudly.
After a moment, discordant whispers came from the crowd: "A mere Golden Core Stage cultivator dares to be so arrogant?
Without the protection of Dongting Immortal Sect, let's see how long he can be smug!"
There were not a few who thought this way, and they nodded silently to one another.
In the Tianyuan Realm, Golden Core Stage cultivators were not exactly everywhere, but any sect, family, or power with a certain inheritance had at least one.
Everyone thought Xu Zhangqing dared to be so arrogant only because he relied on the residual prestige of Dongting Immortal Sect; once the Immortal Sect completely split, he would return to his original form.
But the next second, everyone's expressions froze.
A large number of cultivators came rushing from all directions, with flying ships, flying boats, and flying shuttles too numerous to count.
The leader was precisely the Fire Spirit Root Avatar Zhu Rong; behind him, Wan Niang shouted loudly: "Congratulations to Sect Master Xu on establishing the sect; the Wan Family presents the Heaven-grade Cultivation Method 'Innate Separation Fire Dao Classic' and the Innate Separation Fire Seed, to help Qingmu Sect's remaining fire never extinguish and its inheritance never end!"
Immediately after, the Earth Spirit Root Avatar Female Earth appeared with several Array Masters: "The Xunlong Lineage congratulates Sect Master Xu on establishing the sect, presenting the Chaos Suppressing World Diagram and Innate Earth Spirit Crystal Core, willing to lay down a Law-level Mountain Guarding Grand Array for Qingmu Sect!"
The Thunder Spirit Root Avatar Fenglong appeared with Zhao Chengdao of the Longhu Immortal Sect, and said: "Longhu Immortal Sect congratulates Sect Master Xu on establishing the sect, presenting the Heaven-grade Cultivation Art 'Thunder Emperor Suppressing World Technique' and the Magic Treasure 'Startling Thunder Sword'; wishing Qingmu Sect smooth sailing in all matters!"
The Metal Spirit Root Avatar Tai Bai followed by three top-tier Blacksmiths, carrying a set of dazzling golden-armored armor and a piece of dark-gold crystal stone, said in a loud voice: "Jin Guang Cave congratulates Sect Master Xu on establishing the sect, presenting the Magic Treasure 'Golden Dome Battle Armor' and Chaos Gold Essence, wishing Qingmu Sect invincibility everywhere and an inheritance lasting ten thousand generations!"
Not only that, the sect masters, family heads, and leaders of powers from many top immortal sects in the Tianyuan Realm all sent gifts to congratulate.
"Qingyun Sect presents the Heaven-grade Cultivation Method 'Canglan Water Classic' and the Innate Water Soul!"
"Zifu Clan presents the ancient rare spirit plant Chaos Root!"
"The reclusive Wang Family presents the spatial Magic Treasure 'Qiankun Pot'!"
"Beicao Sect presents the rare spirit plant Nine Turns Returning Soul Grass!"
Various rare treasures appeared, piled up like mountains.
Spiritual energy and Dao resonance intertwined into vast sky-glow, enveloping Qingmu Sect in a sacred halo.
The Commandery Guard of Fengrao Commandery, commandery officials, and merchants—upon seeing this, all were speechless.
They never expected that people, cultivation methods, magic treasures, spiritual treasures, and such that only appeared in legends would actually be used as congratulatory gifts.
Even more unexpected: Xu Zhangqing, a Golden Core Stage cultivator, actually had such depth, able to make these figures who hold influence over Tianyuan Realm come personally to offer congratulations!
"What's there to be surprised about?"
Just as everyone was secretly shocked, Wang Han smiled smugly: "Don't look at Sect Master Xu being only Golden Core Stage cultivation—he has friends all over Tian Xia!"
"Whether in the Cultivation World or the Mortal World, wherever Sect Master Xu goes, he is a Guest of Honor!"
"These powers coming to offer congratulations is nothing more than routine!"
"I see, then I wonder what Sect Master Xu likes?"
"Right, right, what are his interests and hobbies?"
"It's already this time, Old Wang, you can't be stingy!"
Many quick-witted people were all eager to make a move.
Each one wanted to curry favor with Xu Zhangqing and latch onto this connection.
Someone who could win the favor of so many top powers must not be ordinary.
Making friends early brings a hundred benefits and no harm.
Wang Han said meaningfully: "If any of you are interested, there's no need to rush."
"In not too long, Sect Master Xu will turn one hundred years old."
"By then……"
The words were unfinished, the meaning complete.
Everyone present was no fool, even sharper than foxes, and instantly understood.
They all calculated, preparing a generous gift to put on a good show at Xu Zhangqing's birthday banquet.
Just then, a majestic ritual music sounded, and only a troop dressed in bright yellow dragon-patterned attire appeared, the leader wearing a python robe, bearing imperial majesty.
This person was none other than the current Crown Prince of the Dafeng Dynasty, Xiao Jing Yuan.
Xiao Jing Yuan stepped forward quickly, cupped his hands toward Xu Zhangqing in mid-air, and said respectfully yet without losing imperial bearing: "Crown Prince Xiao Jing Yuan of the Dafeng Dynasty, by Huangdi's order, specially comes to congratulate Sect Master Xu on founding his sect."
"Huangdi says: Qingmu Sect guards Dongyu Fengyun Commandery, a blessing for our Dafeng Dynasty, willing to maintain friendly relations with Qingmu Sect generation after generation, jointly protecting the peace of Dongyu!"
After speaking, he raised his hand to signal.
Attendants behind him carried forward four purple sandalwood treasure chests carved with dragons and phoenixes; the moment they were opened, though lacking the Law Light Halo of immortal supreme treasures, they fully displayed the luxury of the Mortal Dynasty.
Xiao Jing Yuan said seriously: "By Huangdi's decree, presenting three congratulatory gifts."
"First, the Zhenyue Seal: holding this jade seal, one can mobilize the troops around Fengrao Commandery, and all Huang Chao Guan Yuan must cooperate with Qingmu Sect's actions."
"Second, Imperial Spirit Jade: this is the core of the Dragon Vein, capable of stabilizing Qingmu Sect's Mountain Gate spiritual vein; though not an immortal supreme treasure, it is also a rare wonder."
"Third, Fengrao Commandery's spirit field taxes are exempted for one hundred years, to show the dynasty's sincerity!"
