I have Immortality In The Cultivation World

Chapter 284 - 255 Turmoil Within the Demonic Race_2



Upon hearing this, an elderly cultivator with white hair couldn’t help but stand up excitedly and ask.

"Venerable Master, may I ask what conditions must be met to receive the Foundation Establishment Pill?"

This old man was quite renowned among the ancient cultivators, having cultivated to the Great Perfection of Qi Refinement with a triple Spirit Root and was an expert in talismans and setting up formations, currently in charge of the alliance’s Special Weapons Bureau.

"Anyone can receive it."

Zhou Yi’s Divine Sense swept over and immediately knew the old man’s age, who was already more than 120 years old.

"However, after breaking through to a true person, one must defend the front lines for ten years, ten years for each Foundation Establishment Pill!"

"The junior is willing."

The old man nodded without hesitation, fearing that Zhou Yi would regret it, and said, "I am 123 years old, and after breaking through Foundation Establishment, I will have more than seventy years left. If it takes more than seven pills, I am willing to be refined into a Golden Corpse after death!"

"There’s no need to refine into a corpse."

Zhou Yi said with a smile, "I have ghost path secret techniques here, with a long lifespan, not afraid of being unable to repay!"

Immediately, a wave of gasps could be heard.

This is truly a debt incurred in life that must be repaid even in death as a ghost!

The people couldn’t help but feel a chill in their hearts upon hearing this; the Venerable Master before them seemed amiable, but was in fact thick-skinned, ruthless, and heavy-handed. He was not to be trifled with!

Originally, some cultivators were dissatisfied and wanted to call upon the other cultivators to collectively protest, using the grand cause of the flourishing human race to pressure Zhou Yi into handing over the Foundation Establishment Pills. But upon hearing these words, they immediately extinguished the thought.

The strong are not terrifying, what’s terrifying is a strong person who doesn’t care for face!

The old man bowed in agreement, "All will be as the Venerable Master says!" n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

"After the lecture, come find me for the pills."

Zhou Yi didn’t care about the resentment of the ancient cultivators; he truly enjoyed secluded cultivation in the mountains and forests and could bet his life on a breakthrough. He continued, "The second matter is, feeling the thinning of our heritage, I plan to open my mountain and accept disciples."

The ancient cultivators were all sharp-minded, guessing from the Foundation Establishment Pill that there would be other conditions and quietly waited for what came next.

As expected.

"Killing fierce beasts and demon clans as conditions, the former a hundred thousand, the latter a hundred. Those who achieve this can enter my sect. Pills and Cultivation Techniques will not be lacking, and there will also be Immortal Elixirs to increase the rate of success in Solidifying Pill!"

Zhou Yi said, "I plan to take seven disciples, and now there are six places left. Do not think of taking shortcuts, unless you have the confidence to deceive the divination technique!"

After saying this, he didn’t wait for the crowd to ask questions, and turned into a streak of light and left.

...

The Vice Principal’s office.

Zhou Yi browsed through web pages several times; the trending topics were all about him, inadvertently enjoying the feeling of being a star.

"I must keep a lower profile in the future; the Demon Clans have already seen the emergence of a Demon King."

"Once the human race has a few more Golden Cores, I will look for an opportunity to change my name and surname, to avoid being calculated and besieged by demons one day!"

Zhou Yi flipped through the secret reports sent by the alliance, with emphasis on the changes and movements within the Demon Nation and looking at the peculiarly shaped dragon clan beasts and the photos of the Dragon Emperor on the demon clan’s social networking site, unusual thoughts emerged.

"Ao Qin, the third son of the Old Dragon... Tsk tsk, an acquaintance who I had seen a few times back in the day, what should I say when we meet again?"

"If I say ’long time no see,’ will it scare this fellow?"

After Zhou Yi finished reading the demon clan’s intelligence, overall, it was a mixed bag for the human race. Then, he opened Cloud Chat and found that the group he had formed with several teachers had no new messages for several days.

"I’ve been promoted to vice principal and became part of the management team, and everyone immediately started a new group!"

At that moment.

There was a knock on the door.

Zhou Yi waved his hand to open the door and saw Xiao Hong come in with a smile all over his face.

"Xiao Dao-friend, is there some good news today?"

"The Demon Clans have started an internal war!"

Xiao Hong said, "I just received news that the three Emperors teamed up to besiege the Dragon Emperor, under the pretext of expelling ancient demonlore and bloodlines, and to give the Nine Continents a fair and equal Demon Nation!"

"Cough cough cough..."

Zhou Yi couldn’t help but cough a few times, astonished, "Since ancient times, the Demon Clans have been warring and fighting each other, how could there be such a slogan?"

"You are mistaken, Tang Dao-friend, today’s Demon Clans are indeed very different from the ancient demons,"

Xiao Hong snorted coldly, "While the new Demon Clans absorb the culture and wisdom of the human race, they have also been influenced, and have started to question the hierarchy of bloodlines, with many in the Demon Clans proclaiming the establishment of an equal Demon Nation."

"It’s just because the Nine Continents are vast and demon clans in different regions are powerful enough to rule as kings. That’s why this matter has come to nothing!"

"The title of ’Three Emperors’ doesn’t seem to be much more equal than that of the Dragon Emperor."

Zhou Yi helplessly shrugged his shoulders, offering no comment, and said, "The Dragon Emperor has already achieved Golden Core, his strength is enough to crush the other Demon Emperors, how could they have the confidence to contend with him?"

"Direct confrontation certainly won’t do, the Three Emperors have already moved to a secret location, hidden somewhere unknown in the Nine Continents."

Xiao Hong explained, "Secretly rallying and commanding the fierce beasts of the Nine Continents, they attempt to surround Dragon Emperor Mountain. Even a Demon King cannot withstand the boundless and endless onslaught of the beast tide!"

Zhou Yi thought for a moment and then said with a smile, "So the fierce beasts around the human race are being called away?"

Xiao Hong nodded, "The majority have been called away, the remaining are mostly to monitor, to prevent you and me from attacking the Three Emperors from behind."

"I see."

Zhou Yi remembered the ’supremely auspicious’ divination, not expecting Ao Qin to emerge first, when he was expecting it to be the likes of an imperial adviser.

"Oh Niu’er, oh Niu’er, your act of inadvertence back then ended up being a tremendous contribution to the human race!"

The insignificant actions of one’s predecessor could stir up towering waves in the history that follows!

The Yellow Ox has merged with the Jianmu Tree for twelve hundred years, occasionally emitting damp and intimate essences, which only confirms that Niu’er has not yet dispersed his consciousness. As for when he will transform and emerge, that is unknown.

The growth of an Innate Spirit Root, for an ordinary cultivator, is as long as the changing of eras!

"Upon hearing the news, I immediately came to seek out fellow Daoist."

Xiao Hong said, "This is a heaven-sent opportunity for the human race to expand outward. Once the war among the demon races calms down, no matter which side wins, they will turn around and attack the human race to establish their might!"

"Indeed, we should expand outward."

Zhou Yi lightly nodded, the human race confined within a region of four to five thousand li, exploited various resources without restriction to supply the front line with weaponry, and inevitably, they would run dry one day.

Expanding outward, even without relocating the populace, merely seizing mines and resources could significantly alleviate the internal pressure!

"Does Fellow Daoist Xiao have any plans?"

"I shall personally go to the front lines, slaying groups of demons to assist the troops in breaking out. Without the behind-the-scenes control of demon races, the fierce beasts are no match for the regularized army with heavy firepower."

Xiao Hong continued, "I ask that fellow Daoist guard Immortal Capital City, be on guard against a surprise attack by demon races!"

Zhou Yi pondered for a moment and said, "I am an expert in the divination technique, and it is easier for me to hunt down demon races, so I am supposed to go to the front lines to slay the enemy."

"Expansion must be built on a foundation of prudence!"

Xiao Hong shook his head and said, "I am practicing a new technique, and even though I have transformed into the lineage of the White Tiger, my lifespan is no more than two hundred years. The Dao of immortality values life, you can protect the human race for four to five hundred years, and you cannot take any risks."

"Be careful in all things."

Zhou Yi exhaled the Bodhi Treasure Wheel and said, "This is a protective Supreme Treasure, Fellow Daoist should carry it with you, so a sneak attack by a Demon King will not harm you. Once the Supreme Treasure is triggered, I will sense it and will find a way to rescue you!"

"Thank you, fellow Daoist."

Xiao Hong didn’t stand on ceremony, Immortal Capital City was tightly guarded, with prohibitions and patterns throughout the city; it would be difficult for a Demon King to sneak in, but the front lines were full of unknown dangers of life and death.

Like Ao Qin, emerging from the Four Spirits Holy Temple, even Zhou Yi could not guess his exact strength.

The inheritance from an Ancient Demon Saint was bound to be extremely powerful; if they indeed conspired with the Three Emperors to ambush and encircle Xiao Hong, the Bodhi Treasure Wheel might not even save his life!

Then Xiao Hong spoke with Zhou Yi about various matters, such as the important affairs of the school, the backgrounds of various teachers, and students with promising futures who needed particular attention.

Such arrangements were like making last testaments.

"If things do not go well for Fellow Daoist Xiao, I will surely protect the Xiao family..."

Zhou Yi said gravely, "If a Spirit Root emerges in the Xiao family in the future, even a four or five-grade Spirit Root, I shall assist them with Foundation Establishment, and if it’s a two or three-grade Spirit Root, I will do my utmost to help them achieve Golden Core!"

Within Kunlun Cave Heaven, he had planted several Spiritual Objects that aid Core Formation, such as the Seven-Colored Immortal Lotus that had already bloomed and fruited several times. Consuming them together had a sixty to seventy percent chance of achieving Golden Core.

With the accumulation of long years, Zhou Yi was a hundred times richer than a Nascent Soul ancestor.

"That would be excellent, now I have no worries for the future."

Xiao Hong said with a smile, "Fellow Daoist, do not worry too much, I have been blessed by heaven and earth, and will not fall easily!"

Zhou Yi said, "Fellow Daoist’s fortune reaches the heavens, then I will take a disciple from the Xiao family to share in this fortune."

The alliance brought out a Heavenly Spiritual Root, begging Zhou Yi to take it as a disciple, yet he accepted only one. But now, coming to Xiao Hong, Zhou Yi seemed eager to take a disciple.

Understanding the difference, Xiao Hong nodded without further words and soared into the sky.

Zhou Yi now stood by the window, overlooking from a height, below, students and teachers were smiling.

His Divine Sense swept over, and the citizens of Immortal Capital City, compared to a few years ago, had a bit more relaxation and smiles on their faces.

"It’s another cycle, every time a calamity befalls the human race, there will always be those who stand up..."
