Chapter 522

The Sect Master's personally transmitted disciples' palace complex, in a magnificently grand palace hall thick with immortal qi.

"When Qing Yun opens its sect gates, it will unify the immortal realm!"

"The wind rises, the clouds surge; gods bow their heads, immortals feel lost."

"The great trend of the immortal realm's winds and clouds will start from us."

Lin Bai, wearing the personally transmitted disciple's robes, shook his head and swayed as he casually chanted.

"Not bad, junior brother; the quality of your recent work has indeed improved considerably."

Facing Senior Brother Shi Hao's praise, Lin Bai quickly waved his hands and laughed: "Haha, thanks for the praise, senior brother, basic ops, basic ops."

In the immortal hall, the personally transmitted eldest disciple Shi Hao, second disciple Lin Bai, third disciple Hua Qingyu, and fourth disciple Lin Feng sat facing each other at the purple crystal immortal table.

"Eldest senior brother, second senior brother, do you have any ideas about the master's trial mission this time?"

Hearing the junior sister's words, Shi Hao pondered briefly and then said: "Let's go to the Xian Hong Dao Realm."

"Just now you also heard that the sequence disciples' side, Junior Brother Yun Lan and his group, are going to the Nine Heavens Dao Realm; since they have many people, let them have the Nine Heavens Dao Realm."

"We'll go to Xian Hong, striving to seize all its immortal provinces as soon as possible to set an example for the sect's other junior brothers and sisters."

"'I agree with the eldest senior brother's view,' said the junior brother Lin Feng, who had not spoken yet, raising his hand in agreement."

"My grandfather's side can also help, and we can go together to the Xian Hong Dao Realm."

Lin Feng's grandfather, Lin Anye, was formerly the guardian of the Tianhuang Immortal Tomb, the Dark Night Immortal Emperor; he has now broken through to Immortal Venerable and been promoted to the Seven-Star Gold Rank Elder of the Elders' Office.

"Good, with Elder Lin's assistance we have gained another strength."

Immediately after, Hua Qingyu also said she could invite the Water Immortal senior for help; her relationship with these elders in the sect, especially the Inner Sect Grand Elder Mu Shui Xian, has been close since before she joined the sect.

The former Water Immortal Empress of the Huangwu Realm has also now reached the Immortal Venerable realm; it's just unknown whether she still remembers the hundred-thousand-year Dao contract she signed before joining the sect……

Shi Hao nodded again upon hearing this: "Let's not bother the other elders for now; we'll talk after we establish ourselves in the Xian Hong Dao Realm."

Within the sect, aside from the Sect Master, no one's connections compare to theirs; if they wish, a single word can summon most of the elders.

"By the way, eldest senior brother, Black Emperor and Xiao Bai just contacted me via token; they want to join our mission."

"Oh? Black Emperor and company aren't they supervising the construction of Heavenly City? It seems our Qing Yun Heavenly City is about to be completed; let's go ahead first and await the arrival of Black Emperor and Xiao Bai."

Black Emperor and Xiao Bai's cultivation is at the peak of Immortal Venerable, just a whisker away from breaking through to God Lord; adding these two great helpers now.

After Shi Hao finished speaking, the four of them then discussed the details and plan of this mission.

They plan to support a small faction to contend; a small faction is easy to control, its loyalty to the sect is easy to manage, and they themselves can gain perfect training; of course, for now it's all theoretical—everything will depend on circumstances when the time comes.

After they finished discussing, Lin Feng suddenly added: "By the way, I don't know where Ye Dao Son will go."

This Ye Dao Son is especially mysterious; in the sect, aside from the master, he is the second person whom one cannot see through.

Leaving aside his heaven-defying talent, at the same age his actions and speech are remarkably mature; his usual expression and the depths of his eyes are ancient and calm, his whole person flawless, as steady as an old dog!

"Ye Dao Son seems to have gone to the Nine Heavens Dao Realm; he looks preoccupied, unlike his usual self."

……

At the same time, not only were they discussing here, but over eighty percent of the sect's elders and disciples were also discussing, each pursuing their own path.

The North Sea Dragon Clan behind Qing Yun Immortal Peak, together with the remnants of the Ancient Monster Heavenly Court of Ao Yuan and Ao Yu on this side, plan to join forces to head to other continents of the Cang Gu Dao Realm; the force they form is also unprecedentedly strong.

In the core disciple area, core eldest senior brother Gu Jian Fan and core eldest senior sister Gu Ling Ling are also organizing manpower; nearly all core disciples have participated, except for one……

The same goes for inner and outer sects; the outer sect's eldest senior brother Ji Ni Tai Magnesium even declared he would establish a minor sect, Ji Men, to contend across the major immortal continents.

In a small courtyard of the inner sect, Zhao Jin Zhu, wearing inner sect disciple attire, gaped in shock.

"Brother Li, have you really made up your mind!"

"I thought you would act together with your core disciple side; I didn't expect you to go to such extremes!"

"Brother Li, hear me out: our two forces are too weak, with no competitiveness and constantly at risk of losing our lives!"

Li Yin, wearing core disciple attire, merely shook his head upon hearing this: "Brother Zhao, I came this time just to say goodbye; let's reunite when I return."

"Under the sect's protection I will never grow up; I am unwilling, I, Li Yin, will surely make a name for myself in this immortal realm! Serve the sect!"

Li Yin's eyes were firm; his white hair made him appear like a god or a demon.

At this moment, Zhao Jin Zhu seemed to see again that fearless youth from years ago on the ascent to immortality in the lower realms' great desert—one who feared no strong enemy, accepted no fate, and even if he fell into the demonic path would rise up in defiance.

"Damn! Done! We two are an unbeatable pair, indispensable to each other!"

"Brother Li, aside from that I have plenty of immortal treasures; as for resources, you can rest assured—if it's not enough I'll first take some from my master, and if that still isn't enough I'll drag my master in to help!"

……

Time flowed slowly.

The next morning.

Today is the day the Pill Refining Conference opens; the conference is set to begin precisely at the third quarter of the Shen hour (around 4:45 p. m. modern time), and tens of millions of pill refiners have already flooded onto Penglai Immortal Island.

Of course, the number of pill refiners actually participating in the conference will be much smaller; many here are just filling numbers or purely coming to observe.

Penglai Immortal Island is large enough; even if twice as many pill refiners came, it could accommodate them, and there's no need to worry about order— to cope with this conference, the forces on the island have practically deployed all their strongers to patrol the island nonstop for twelve double-hours.

Of course, with the deterrent of the Shen Yuan Dan Pavilion, hardly any pill refiner dares to cause trouble today unless they want to lose their ironclad livelihood of pill refining.

"Wow! Truly a rare grand day for the pill refining world! This time the attendees are truly many, actually more than last session's conference."

"Indeed, I tell you this is far from the limit; by noon even more will come, I've heard that nearly eighty percent of pill refiners from the three Dao realms will attend this Pill Refining Conference!"

"Holy crap! Eighty percent? That's too terrifying! What big event does this session have?"

"You don't know? At this conference, the new generation's chief disciple of the Dan Pavilion will personally lead the team here; and most importantly of all! I've heard that a senior of the Dan Pavilion will also descend!"
