Chapter 623: A King-level Sect Established by Ascenders, High-level Immortals

What?

A King-level major sect?!

Hearing this, Tang Zishu's pupils contracted; he knew he had never heard the name of the Xuanhuang Sect, but since it was a King-level major sect, it was undoubtedly a newly ascended Immortal King-level power.

In the two hundred million years he had spent in secluded cultivation, a new Immortal King had been born among the Human Race.

Of course, for the Human Race, the more Immortal Kings born, the better.

Therefore, he became increasingly curious about this Xuanhuang Sect.

"Oh, what is so extraordinary? Could you explain it in detail?"

Tang Zishu asked curiously, looking at the many Immortals.

"First of all, the Xuanhuang Sect is incredibly mysterious; no one knows where its main sect is located."

"Secondly, it is not a sect native to our Immortal World, but one that came from the mortal realm."

"In short, it is a King-level major sect established by Ascenders from the mortal realm."

"The vast majority of the disciples inside are Ascenders from the mortal realm."

An Immortal said straightforwardly; after all, this was information the Xuanhuang Sect had voluntarily made public.

To tell the truth, when the Xuanhuang Sect appeared in the Immortal World, countless Immortals wanted to find where the Xuanhuang Sect's main sect was located.

Unfortunately, no matter how they searched, they could not find the slightest trace.

Anyone who wanted to coerce a Xuanhuang Sect Cultivator would inevitably face retaliation.

So, as time passed, the location of the Xuanhuang Sect's main sect became a mystery.

Of course, even so, there were many Immortals who remained tireless, attempting to find the specific location of the Xuanhuang Sect's main sect.

"A sect established by Ascenders? How is such a thing possible?"

Tang Zishu was completely bewildered.

He had originally thought the Xuanhuang Sect was a native sect of the Immortal World, but he had not expected it to come from mortal realm Ascenders.

One must know that whenever Ascenders from the mortal realm arrive in the Immortal World, they are basically absorbed by the various major sects and powers.

They have absolutely no opportunity to leave and create a new sect power.

But as for when this Immortal King-level power was created, it was truly inconceivable.

And would other major Human Race sects in the Immortal World allow such an Ascender sect to appear?

"To tell the truth, at the beginning, we were also shocked."

"That this King-level major sect was actually created by Ascenders is truly incredible."

"But thinking about it carefully, it is nothing."

"After all, Ascenders are exceptionally talented and possess countless capable people; it is very normal for an Immortal King to be born among many Ascenders, and this is completely understandable."

The many Immortals discussed it heatedly.

They naturally felt that it was an inconceivable thing for Ascenders to be able to build a sect in the Immortal World.

But for ordinary Immortals, this actually did not matter at all.

After all, there are simply too many King-level major sects in the Immortal World; even if there were one more, what would that count for?

More importantly, even those Immortal Kings did not object, so their opposition would not have any effect.

Moreover, the Xuanhuang Sect sells a large amount of low-cost Immortal Wine, which has tremendous benefits for ordinary Immortals.

If it were not for the Xuanhuang Sect, where would they have the qualifications to enjoy such low-cost Immortal Wine?

So, to a certain extent, they are even very grateful for the rise of the Xuanhuang Sect.

Otherwise, they would not have hope for further progress.

"The problem is, with such a King-level major sect suddenly popping up, did the other King-level major sects not object?"

Tang Zishu felt very strange about this point.

As a Great Luo Golden Immortal of the Taiyi Sect, he naturally knew what kind of character the other King-level major sects had.

After all, these sects are quite ancient, occupying who knows how many great continents.

Now that a King-level major sect has suddenly appeared, attempting to snatch the interests of other sects, it would certainly cause no small amount of backlash.

Because the interests within the Human Territory are only so much.

If it were snatched away by the Xuanhuang Sect, wouldn't the interests of other sects suffer huge damage?!

To tell the truth, he felt that this Xuanhuang Sect must have suffered suppression.

Any sect attempting to rise within the Human Race would encounter the same fate; this is also an unavoidable matter.

Only a King-level major sect that can withstand suppression will be recognized by other sects.

"To tell the truth, this point is indeed extremely strange."

"When the Xuanhuang Sect appeared, not only did our various Human Race King-level major sects not object, they were actually very welcoming."

"There was absolutely no phenomenon of suppression at all."

"For example, the sale of Immortal Wine; such a low cost has greatly impacted the Immortal Wine market."

"One must know that many sects also rely on selling Immortal Wine to earn Immortal Stones."

"But ever since the Xuanhuang Sect's low-cost Immortal Wine appeared, it basically killed off the Immortal Wine sales of other sects."

"After all, their price only requires one-twentieth; there is simply no way to compete with the Xuanhuang Sect."

"But even so, many King-level major sects have turned a blind eye, letting the Xuanhuang Sect sell Immortal Wine in every major city without making any obstruction."

The many Immortals also felt this point was very strange.

Normally, with so many sects having their interests damaged, it would certainly provoke the fury of the major sects.

Yet, things were exactly the opposite of what countless Immortals thought.

These sects were not only not angry, but were instead constantly promoting the Xuanhuang Sect's Immortal Wine.

It gives people the feeling that these sects are simply like vassal sects of the Xuanhuang Sect.

However, they feel that this is also an impossible thing.

After all, the Xuanhuang Sect is merely a king-level sect that has just been born; compared to those ancient sects, it is fundamentally incomparable.

One can only say that the methods of the Xuanhuang Sect are indeed incomparably superb.

One doesn't even know what they did to actually obtain the recognition of many king-level sects.

"Are they actually turning a blind eye?"

"Could it be that the Immortal King of the Xuanhuang Sect is incomparably formidable, forcing other sects to have no choice but to bow their heads?"

Tang Zishu could not help but think of this point.

The so-called "when things are abnormal, there must be a demon."

The fact that the Xuanhuang Sect can achieve this definitely has a great deal to do with the Immortal King who created the Xuanhuang Sect.

The Cultivators who control the Human Heavenly Court are basically those Immortal Kings.

All the rules are established by the Immortal Kings.

As soon as the Xuanhuang Sect appeared, it actually began to monopolize the Immortal Wine industry of the Human Race.

It did not even provoke opposition from other Immortal King forces.

This point alone is enough to prove that the Xuanhuang Sect Master is formidable and is absolutely a top-tier Immortal King.

Otherwise, other Human Immortal Kings would not give such face.

"Even my Taiyi Sect has given them face."

"It seems this Xuanhuang Sect is truly extraordinary."

Tang Zishu's eyes flickered.

He also knows that there are currently five great super forces in the Human Race, all of which are powerhouses possessing Ancient Kings.

They are the Taiyi Sect, the Linglong Sect, the Qiantian Sect, the Hongchen Sect, and the Dari Sect, etc.

They basically represent the five Great Ancient Kings of the Human Race.

Originally, there were nine Ancient Kings in the Human Race, but unfortunately, they encountered accidents, and four Ancient Kings fell.

This caused the strength of the Human Race to suffer great damage.

Of course, other super great races are the same, with many Ancient Kings and Immortal Kings falling respectively.

"However, the formidable aspect of the Xuanhuang Sect is not just as simple as selling Immortal Wine."

"In fact, they sell everything."

"Even in every city of the Human Race in the Immortal World, there will be a Wanbao Tower opened by the Xuanhuang Sect."

"This Wanbao Tower basically has every kind of Treasure."

"Over the long years, it has already become the largest commercial organization of our Human Race."

"It has earned countless wealth."

An Immortal said with great emotion.

Because the Xuanhuang Sect is now simply dripping with wealth, and basically every city of the Human Race will have a shop of the Xuanhuang Sect.

The Treasures inside every shop are dazzling and make one drool with envy.

"That's right, the Xuanhuang Sect not only sells Immortal Wine cheaply, but the price of Immortal Pills is also very cheap."

"It is only one-tenth of the price of Immortal Pills sold by other sects."

"And the supply of goods is very sufficient; there is no need to worry about a shortage of Immortal Pills at all."

"Before, we could only go to auctions to buy Immortal Pills, and the prices were high."

"But now it is different; one can buy a large number of Immortal Pills by going directly to the Wanbao Tower of the Xuanhuang Sect."

"To tell the truth, it is precisely because these Immortal Pills are sold in large quantities that our Human Race has also seen the emergence of a large number of Earth Immortals, Heavenly Immortals, and Mysterious Immortals."

"Compared to before, the number of high-level Immortals has increased by more than ten times."

Another Immortal said very excitedly.

To tell the truth, he is very grateful for the appearance of the Wanbao Tower of the Xuanhuang Sect.

If it were not for the Xuanhuang Sect, where would ordinary Immortals have the qualifications to buy Immortal Pills?

Even the appearance of an Immortal Pill, they might not have seen; they could only stare blankly, helpless.

But ever since the Xuanhuang Sect appeared, even ordinary Immortals can buy Immortal Pills.

This has also allowed countless Immortals to gain huge benefits, with their cultivation advancing by leaps and bounds.

In the past one hundred million years, who knows how many Human Immortals have received benefits from the Xuanhuang Sect.

"How is that possible? If it were just the low price of Immortal Wine, it could still be imagined."

"But the price of Immortal Pills is actually only one-tenth of what it was before; how could such a thing be possible?"

"The price of Immortal Medicine alone could not be brought down, right?"

Hearing this, Tang Zishu was simply incredulous.

To tell the truth, the Human Heavenly Court had always wanted to reduce the refining cost of Immortal Pills, but the problem was that after working hard for so many years, and even wanting to plant Immortal Medicine on a large scale, they had never been able to succeed.

Because the cost of Immortal Medicine could not be brought down.

If one were to add the labor costs of the Pill masters, then one would not know to what extent the price would have risen.

Even in a king-level sect like the Taiyi Sect, Immortal Pills are rare in the world.

Only a few geniuses have the qualifications to exchange for Immortal Pills.

As for ordinary Disciples, they can only rely on their own bitter cultivation to improve their cultivation.

But now, the Xuanhuang Sect has actually completely solved this problem, reducing the cost to one-tenth.

This is truly inconceivable.

He felt that this kind of thing was simply impossible to achieve.

"Under normal circumstances, that is indeed the case, but the Xuanhuang Sect is very incredible."

"It is said that the Xuanhuang Sect has mastered the method of cultivating Immortal Medicine on a large scale."

"Moreover, it can also greatly shorten the growth cycle of Immortal Medicine."

"It can grow a large amount of Immortal Medicine in a short period of time, lowering the price of Immortal Medicine."

"That is why the Immortal Pill produced by the Xuanhuang Sect is only one-tenth the price of other sects."

"And the quantity is incomparably vast; there is simply no need to worry about scarcity."

"It is precisely because of this that ever since the Immortal Pill refined by the Xuanhuang Sect appeared, I don't even know how many pill shops have been driven out of business."

"Because all immortals only go to the Xuanhuang Sect's shops to buy Immortal Pill, and will not go to other shops to buy Immortal Pill."

"As time passed, I don't know how many pill shops closed down; they simply could not survive."

Numerous immortals discussed it heatedly.

Without a doubt, the Xuanhuang Sect is simply a price butcher; as soon as it appeared, it used its capital to hurt others, beating many shops into retreat, and they simply could not compare to the Xuanhuang Sect.

After all, if one wants to talk about being cheap, anyone who thinks they can compare to the Xuanhuang Sect is purely indulging in wishful thinking.

"No way, if that's the case, wouldn't that offend all the pill shops in the world and offend countless forces?" Tang Zishu could imagine the pressure the Xuanhuang Sect faced.

It is true that selling Immortal Pill at such a low cost has benefited countless immortals.

But what about those pill shops? I don't know how many alchemists, how many sects, and how many forces are involved behind them.

If these shops were allowed to close down and lose all their capital, it would definitely make them fight to the death.

After all, cutting off someone's path to wealth is like killing their parents.

Even if the Xuanhuang Sect's power is overwhelming, I am afraid it would be difficult to prevent this.

"At the beginning, that was indeed the case; it offended a large number of forces."

"Countless Human Race alchemists even came forward personally, wanting to ban the sale of Xuanhuang Sect's Immortal Pill."

"They did not allow the Xuanhuang Sect's Immortal Pill to appear on the market, so as to maintain the normal sales system of Immortal Pill."

"For a time, there were protests everywhere among the Human Race; the momentum was huge and the approach was aggressive."

"But this matter was still resolved by the Xuanhuang Sect."

An immortal spoke up.

"Oh, how was the matter resolved?"

Tang Zishu blinked; he became increasingly curious. After all, this was offending the interests of the whole world; how could it be resolved so easily?

"It's very simple: the Immortal King of the Xuanhuang Sect took action and settled the Immortal Kings of other sects."

"They made many sects come to the negotiating table."

"As long as the Immortal Kings do not intend to take action, then how would other immortals dare to take action?"

"Later, the Xuanhuang Sect also made concessions, being able to provide raw materials for Immortal Medicine to other sects at a low cost."

"They could even provide a large amount of Immortal Pill at a low cost, allowing other sects to sell the Immortal Pill refined by the Xuanhuang Sect."

"In this way, everyone has money to make."

"So the various forces did not continue to make a fuss."

That immortal explained the ins and outs of this matter.

Clearly, the Xuanhuang Sect became the raw material supplier for the major sects of the Human Race, responsible for providing low-cost Immortal Medicine.

They could even provide low-cost Immortal Pill.

In this way, every sect became a distributor for the Xuanhuang Sect.

Everyone became a community of shared interests.

Everyone even had money to make, so the major forces did not continue to make a scene.

"But this didn't completely solve the problem, did it?"

"If this is the case, wouldn't the major sects have had their channels for Immortal Medicine and pills controlled by the Xuanhuang Sect?"

"It's equivalent to having the sect's vital weakness held, being manipulated at will by the Xuanhuang Sect?"

"How could such a thing be agreed to? It is truly too stupid."

Tang Zishu immediately sensed that this agreement was very wrong; on the surface, it solved the problem, but in fact, it did not solve the most fundamental problem.

That is, the major sects actually handed their lifeblood over to the Xuanhuang Sect.

From now on, no sect would dare to offend the Xuanhuang Sect.

Once offended, the Xuanhuang Sect would immediately cut off the supply of Immortal Medicine; who could stand that?

To tell the truth, he felt that the sect masters and Elders of the major sects were all shrewd people; it was impossible for them not to see this point.

But even so, the major sects all agreed to this matter; it is truly too stupid.

He didn't even know what had happened.

"I didn't expect you to be able to see this point too."

"In fact, many immortals saw it, and those sect forces naturally saw it too."

"But even so, they still held their noses and agreed to this matter."

"Because what determines the future of the Human Race is not some low-level immortal, but the Immortal Kings."

"The major Immortal Kings all agreed to this matter, so it wouldn't work even if other immortals disagreed."

Numerous immortals said straightforwardly.

Without a doubt, the root of this matter was still the decisions of the Immortal Kings.

Because even the Immortal Kings felt that this matter was feasible, then this matter had to be feasible whether it worked or not.

Other immortals could only follow such orders and act accordingly.

"In other words, the various Immortal Kings all place great trust in the Immortal King of the Xuanhuang Sect."

"They feel that even if their vital points are held by the other party, it is a matter of no consequence?!"

"What exactly is the background of this Xuanhuang Sect Immortal King, to be able to gain the trust of so many Immortal Kings?"

Tang Zishu was very surprised.

He had actually realized this point as well; low-cost Immortal Wine and low-cost Immortal Pills naturally have immense benefits for ordinary immortals.

But without absolute strength, it would be impossible to promote them to every household.

After all, in every great continent and every city in the Immortal World, the forces are intertwined and extremely complex.

Wanting to have shops settle into these cities and promote to every place is not something that can be done overnight.

Yet the Xuanhuang Sect was still able to do it.

The key to this is the Xuanhuang Sect's Immortal King; the other party suppressed the other Immortal Kings with their own strength, forcing the Immortal Kings to acknowledge the status and strength of the Xuanhuang Sect.

If it is the will of the Immortal Kings, then ordinary immortals cannot change anything and can only comply.

"I don't know; in short, the Xuanhuang Sect's Immortal King is unfathomable."

"No one even knows what his identity and background are."

"It is said that the True Spirit Alliance, the Demon Race, the Demon Race, and the Prison Race, etc., are also searching for the identity of the Xuanhuang Sect's Immortal King."

"Unfortunately, to this day, no one knows the identity and background of the other party."

Many immortals were also very curious about the identity and background of the Xuanhuang Sect Master; the world only knows that the other party might be an Ascender from the mortal world, but the number of Ascenders is truly too vast.

No one knows what the background of this Xuanhuang Sect Master is, or what they experienced after ascending to the Immortal World.

But for ordinary immortals, it is just gossip.

Even if they knew the identity and background of the Immortal King, what of it? They would not gain any benefits, nor would they receive any pills or any Immortal Wine.

Therefore, ordinary immortals would not go too far into investigating such matters.

"An Immortal King with a mysterious background?"

"To have actually gained the recognition of so many Immortal Kings, this is definitely not an ordinary Immortal King."

"It is very likely an Ancient King-level existence, which is why so many Immortal Kings would submit."

"The problem is, every Immortal King of the Human Race in the Immortal World has a traceable history; it is impossible for one to just pop up for no reason."

"In other words, there are two possibilities for this Xuanhuang Sect Immortal King; one is that they come from a Prehistoric Civilization."

"After all, the Eternal Night Land does indeed contain many, many Prehistoric Civilizations."

"And within these Prehistoric Civilizations, there may also be many Immortal Kings, or even Ancient Immortal Kings, lying dormant."

"If these ancient Immortal Kings left the Eternal Night Land and came to the Human Territory, perhaps they could become Immortal Kings of the Human Race and become the strength of the Human Race, which is why they would gain the recognition of so many Immortal Kings."

"This could also explain the mysterious background of the other party; after all, if they are an Immortal King born of a Prehistoric Civilization, it is normal for the living beings of this current era to not recognize them."

Tang Zishu's eyes flickered as he pondered what the background of the Xuanhuang Sect Master might be.

As a Great Luo Golden Immortal of the Taiyi Sect and a True Disciple, he naturally knew many top-secret messages of the Human Race, and even had a thorough grasp of the intelligence on many Prehistoric Civilizations.

In fact, the reason the Human Race developed so quickly has a great deal to do with the sages of the Human Race finding some Prehistoric Relics, obtaining the treasures and inheritance of the Prehistoric Relics, and thereby causing the strength of the Human Race to advance by leaps and bounds.

In a short period of time, the strength of the Human Race grew to a level unimaginable by other races.

For example, the Human Race's Eight-Tier Immortal Array was found in a certain Prehistoric Civilization relic.

It is precisely because of the power of this Eight-Tier Immortal Array that the Human Race is as stable as Mount Tai.

Even when facing the siege of various races, the Human Race would not have the slightest fear.

Even if the Human Race's Immortal Kings are now withering, if the Eight-Tier Immortal Array has not been destroyed, they can still stand tall.

This is the formidable aspect of the Eight-Tier Immortal Array, capable of protecting the Human Race for countless years.

"The second possibility is that the Xuanhuang Sect's Immortal King might be the long-missing Zhu Immortal King."

"According to rumors, the Zhu Immortal King was an Ancient King with unparalleled combat power, enough to be mentioned in the same breath as the Taiyi Immortal King."

"Unfortunately, they encountered an enemy trap and were besieged by many Immortal Kings, resulting in them going missing in the Eternal Night Land."

"If they took this opportunity to return to the Human Territory, it is not an impossible thing."

Tang Zishu suspected that the Xuanhuang Sect Master was very likely the long-missing Zhu Immortal King, because the strength of this Human Race Ancient King was truly too powerful, simply terrifying to hear.

No one dared to believe that the Zhu Immortal King had already fallen.

After all, once reaching this level, it is actually very difficult for an Ancient King to fall.

Because after comprehending the Reincarnation Law, the Soul of an Ancient King has reached the level of being indestructible through Samsara.

If they truly encountered any danger, they could completely and flexibly escape into Samsara and be reborn once again.

Therefore, while it is easy to defeat an Ancient King, it is almost impossible to kill one.

If the Zhu Immortal King were to return to the Human Race again, that would also be completely understandable.

"Of course, perhaps there is a third possibility."

"That is that the Xuanhuang Sect Immortal King is simply an Immortal King who has never appeared in the Human Race before."

"Because they were too powerful, they suppressed the other Immortal Kings."

"Forcing the other Immortal Kings to acknowledge the status of the Xuanhuang Sect, thereby conceding a large amount of benefits."

"But this possibility is truly too small."

Tang Zishu's eyes flickered.

He felt that the third possibility was already infinitely close to zero.

After all, for an unknown Human Race immortal to grow to the Immortal King Realm is already quite extraordinary.

Not to mention that the other party is not just simply becoming an Immortal King, but also needs to suppress other Immortal Kings, forcing them to acknowledge their strength and status.

As a True Disciple of the Taiyi Sect and a peerless genius of the Human Race with the True Spirit Bloodline flowing through his body, he felt that such a thing was almost impossible to achieve.

If it could truly be done, it would simply be a miracle.
