Chapter 227

【「Ding, the Ascension Platform has manifested. 」】

【「Ding, the purple summon card was used successfully, drawing… Congratulations, host drew a peak True Immortal sweeping monk. 」】

「Peak True Immortal? 」

「System, I've noticed you're getting more sensible; now everything you draw is the best. 」

【「My lord's praise, everything depends on the lord's luck. 」】

【This system will never forget the lord's embarrassed face when they previously drew a low realm—soft beep-beep.】

The system's voice fell silent.

Outside Qingyun Dian, above the Qingyun Sect.

Majestic phenomena rose, endless heavenly and earthly laws gathered, vying to resound.

The sect's rich immortal energy surged upward wildly, like a dragon‑swirl cloud, brilliant immortal light illuminating the earth.

Subsequently, a powerful peak True Immortal aura burst forth.

For a moment, the entire Qingyun Sect trembled.

「The sect's senior has returned again! Such a formidable aura! Hiss! Completely on par with the senior of the Ask‑Immortal Tower! 」

「Yeah! After we arrived in the immortal realm, the sect's seniors in the immortal realm have also returned one after another; I can't even imagine the sect's limits. 」

「Sigh, cultivate well, or you'll fall behind the sect's development; first set a "small" goal, take first place in the inner‑door rankings. 」

「Good, this junior fellow, you have ambition; senior brother looks forward to you surpassing me soon. 」

The sect's disciples were stimulated by the returning seniors; if they don't work hard today, tomorrow they'll be sweeping the ground in the sect! Come on!

At that moment, tens of millions of cultivators across the seventy‑two provinces of the Hegemonic Heaven Immortal Country, billions of miles away, were all shocked and looked over.

「Hiss! A True Immortal descends to the world! A completely unfamiliar aura—another True Immortal senior has arrived! 」

「That direction couldn't still be the Qingyun Sect, could it? 」

Since the last time the Hegemonic Heaven Empress paid respects to Feng Qingyang, she issued an edict that the Hegemonic Heaven Immortal Country regards the Qingyun Immortal Sect as supreme.

Immediately, tens of thousands of immortals from the Hegemonic Heaven Country surged into the sky, respectfully paying homage toward the Qingyun Sect, another grand gathering of myriad immortals!

On the other side, inside the Qingyun Sect's dark tower.

The celestial‑calculating Ye Tianji withdrew his shocked gaze; though he hadn't been at the sect long, his experience was far from limited.

「The sect's seniors are truly like carp crossing the river! If I don't strive, I'll never rise. 」

「First set a small goal: gather a hundred million points of intelligence for the sect! 」

Soon after.

In the magnificent hall of the Qingyun Sect.

A monk in gray sect robes stepped in, his head bald, his eyes calm as an ancient well.

His sect attire was also exceedingly plain and unadorned; the whole person was profoundly unassuming, utterly unnoticeable.

「Hiss! I can't see through him at all! 」

「This must be the senior who just descended! A peak True Immortal! 」

Zi Han Yue, standing beside the great hall, felt shocked.

「She never expected the sect to have so many hidden‑dragon seniors; her fifth‑level True Immortal cultivation feels inadequate. 」

Beside her, Zi Yun in a black robe also gazed at the newcomer with a solemn expression.

Having been a ferryman for tens of millions of years, today he has certainly gained much insight.

"But speaking of it, such a mighty sect shouldn't be nameless."

"Looking across the entire Qinggu Heavenly Realm, there's nothing comparable; could it really be as just guessed—that the sect has only recently entered the world?"

「Monk Gu Chen greets the Sect Master. 」

At this moment, a monk in plain sect robes stepped forward, palms together, speaking respectfully.

【Gu Chen, Dao name: Sweeping Monk】

【Cultivation: Peak True Immortal Realm】

【Talent: Immortal‑Buddha Heart, Dao: Immortal‑Buddha Great Dao】

【Technique: Buddha‑Derived Immortal Light Art, Martial Skills… omitted】

【Nature: Profound; if one does not sweep a single spot, how can one sweep the world? He enjoys sweeping, and in leisurely sweeping he enhances Buddhist law and suddenly comprehends the great Dao of heaven and earth.】

「He really is a sweeping immortal monk? Such figures are usually hidden powerhouses in a faction. 」

「Imagine if every sweeper were a peerless True Immortal—no one's jaw would stay intact. 」

「Looks like the Four Sacred Beasts are out of work; even all four together can't compete with him—we could assign them other chores. 」

Feng Qingyang on the chief seat mischievously thought, then kept his expression unchanged while gazing down with authority.

「Gu Chen, you've returned from your travels. 」

「Since you're back, keep doing your old job; settle down well and strive for an early breakthrough. 」

Hearing this, the sweeping monk below respectfully nodded.

「Yes, Sect Master. 」

「Then I'll go sweep first; poor monk takes his leave. 」

As soon as these words were spoken, Han Yue True Immortal and Zi Yun on the other side were completely dumbfounded.

「What! 」

「Sweeping? This mighty peak True Immortal senior sweeps? 」

「This… this, this! The world is too crazy! 」

Feng Qingyang on the chief seat again looked at the bewildered offspring below, his authoritative voice resounding.

「Zi Han Yue, the sect's Heavenly Pavilion is short‑handed now; its elders have all gone out traveling. 」

So the sect now appoints you as Elder of the Heaven Pavilion, and the ferryman Ziyun as Steward of the Heaven Pavilion; you two should work hard and strive to make the Heaven Pavilion the number one tower of the Immortal Realm.

The two women in the lower hall were startled by the words, then respectfully clasped their hands and said, "Thank you, Sect Master."

Sect Master not only granted me rebirth, but now also appointed me as Elder; Han Yue will wholeheartedly handle affairs for the sect.

But... Sect Master, Han Yue feels uneasy.

Han Yue's cold and beautiful face showed a hint of hesitation.

Oh? Go on.

Uneasy? Can the sect possibly eat you?

That senior just now, Sect Master, with such formidable cultivation, I, Han Yue, feel I cannot even catch up to his dust; those seniors are merely sweepers, I...

Before she could finish, Feng Qingyang above spoke calmly: "The Great Dao is myriad; each person's path differs—do I need to personally tell you this?"

Hearing that, the lower Zihan Yue's heart stirred, and she instantly attained enlightenment.

Thank you, Sect Master, for the enlightenment; it was Han Yue who was attached to form.

Mm, having understood is fine; you two may go down first.

After watching the two women leave the hall, Feng Qingyang withdrew his gaze.

Look, the first wave of people shocked by the sweeper monk have arrived.

But the sect was just spouting nonsense earlier; you actually understood that—serves you for having high cultivation.

Afterward, Feng Qingyang opened the system interface again to take a look.

During this period, prestige points and sect value have shown significant increase.

Not bad, not bad.

Little by little adds up; soon we'll be able to exchange for good things.

The fourth-rank sect is still far off, but the immortal treasures in the prestige-point shop are easily obtainable; he was pondering whether to exchange for a heavenly immortal maiden to experience.

Forget it, we'll talk later; Feng Qingyang shook his head and then began to sense himself.

A vast Heavenly Immortal realm aura burst forth, and the mighty myriad Heavenly Immortal Dao began to operate.

The sect has now transcended the Heavenly Immortal realm, but the realm advancement is too slow; I somewhat miss the upgrade cards.

Now the sect can also harness the energy of heaven and earth; shall we create a few heaven-earth avatars to play with?

Feng Qingyang pondered a moment; upon reaching the Heavenly Immortal realm, one can use heavenly-earth power to forge an avatar, like that of the Cangqiong Ancestor.

By the way, speaking of the Cangqiong Ancestor, he thought of the Huangwu Origin and Huangwu Heavenly Dao that he controls.

When they left, to prevent the Huangwu realm from collapsing, they left the origin and heavenly Dao in Huangwu, which he controls remotely.

These two things can be studied well.
