Second Senior Brother’s Alien Immortal Meeting Chapter 1064: 424: Dali Dynasty!
Second Senior Brother’s Alien Immortal Meeting Chen Dengming and Su Yanyan set out on a journey with their destination clear in mind, the Dali Dynasty.
In the entire Longevity Dao Field, there were only two major mortal empires, Dali and Dashou, both under the jurisdiction of the Longevity Sect.
Any dynasty that had lasted for at least a hundred years was considered to have a long and storied history among mortals.
In fact, before the war, the Longevity Sect governed a total of six great dynasties.
However, after the war, four of those dynasties were annihilated.
...
It was only because the royal offspring of Dali and Dashou were not completely wiped out that they were able to regroup their old forces and rebuild in the nearly twenty years following the war.
Jiang Jian’s reincarnated soul was situated within the Dali Dynasty.
After over twenty years of reconstruction, the Dali Royal City was immensely majestic.
Palaces, towers, and pavilions made of red bricks and green tiles soared into the clouds, each one showcasing the splendor of a prosperous era.
Located within the Cultivation World and under the jurisdiction of the Longevity Sect, the Dali Dynasty naturally revered the art of cultivation.
The current Emperor of Dali was himself a Cultivator at the Foundation Establishment stage.
The huge squares within the palace walls were dotted with stone columns engraved with dragons and phoenixes, as well as everlasting vines related to the Longevity Sect.
Outside the imperial palace, in the city of Dali, the streets were bustling with activity, crowded with people and vehicles.
Merchants vied to sell various low-level talisman and charms, elixir pills, and luxurious brocades and silks that had trickled down from the Cultivation World.
Chen Dengming and his companion first flew over the royal city, observing the thriving population and prosperity of the Dali Dynasty.
As the Longevity Sect Leader, he was quite satisfied.
With such vibrant spirit and national fortune, and everyone advocating for cultivation, the Dali Dynasty produced many mortals with Spiritual Roots who aspired to cultivate each year.
These individuals would later be allocated among various subordinate families, branch Sects, or even within the main Sect itself.
Jiang Jian’s reborn soul had descended upon the body of the Princely Heir of the King’s Mansion in the middle of the Dali Dynasty’s Zhongyong Kingdom.
The two of them soared over the royal city and headed south, making a beeline for the mansion of the King of Zhongyong.
As Su Yanyan’s figure flew through the air, her veil fluttering, she said, “Junior brother, you’ve seen the message.
The King of Zhongyong is the Emperor’s uncle and the only Prince in the Dali royal family to date.
Our second senior brother’s reincarnated body is none other than the only son of the King of Zhongyong, Bai Shouhong.
This child was found to be a dullard with disabilities at the age of two upon his birth, yet he possessed a high-grade Spiritual Root, making him a suitable candidate for our Sect’s soul fusion and reincarnation process.
As such, he was chosen as the second senior brother’s reforge body…”
Chen Dengming nodded and said, “In essence, this is also a kind of soul usurpation, albeit through a process of soul fusion.
Such a technique is difficult to perform by anyone less than a Deity Transformation Dao Lord like our Ancestor.
What puzzles me, though, is whether there really wasn’t a more suitable candidate among the many Cultivation Families or smaller Immortal’s gateways under our Sect’s governance?
If the second senior brother were to reforge his body within a Cultivation Family or Sect, wouldn’t his starting point and the speed of awakening be much faster?”
Su Yanyan slightly nodded and then shook her head, “You’re not wrong; in fact, there were better candidates within Cultivation Families and Sects, but there are advantages and disadvantages to consider.
Since the soul fusion process is quite delicate, being born in an environment filled with Cultivators from the start,
should an intermeddling Cultivator who is unaware of the situation detect something amiss, it could put the second senior brother at risk.
On the contrary, it’s much safer within a mortal nation.
Over the past thousand years, many of our Sect’s Divine Spirits who entered the Longevity Incense have reincarnated in mortal countries.
However, only a few have managed to reforge their strength back to what it was before…”
Upon hearing this, Chen Dengming also understood.
Indeed, if a well-intentioned and powerful Cultivator happened to pass by, mistaking the situation for an old monster’s usurpation or a Ghost Creature’s possession and took action rashly, it would likely lead to the second senior brother’s soul dissipating and death during the initial stages of soul fusion.
“Within the mansion of the King of Zhongyong in the Dali Dynasty, there are ample resources for cultivation, as well as the means to practice.
In terms of safety, it’s much better than the highly competitive Cultivation Families and Sects, provided that there is no deliberate malice targeting him…” Su Yanyan added.
Chen Dengming, for one, didn’t catch the implied meaning in Su Yanyan’s words, and continued to inquire about another aspect that he found perplexing.
“If the second senior brother’s reincarnated body is of high-grade Spiritual Root, why is it that according to the information gathered, he is only in the third layer of Qi Cultivation at the age of about twenty-one?
Even if we set aside the first eight years of childhood, given the resources of the King’s Mansion, his cultivation in the past thirteen years should have reached at least the sixth layer of Qi Cultivation…”
As he spoke, he thought of Luo Bing, an old friend from the Luo Family.
Luo Bing also possessed high-grade Spiritual Root potential.
Although the Luo Family was a Cultivation Family, they were one from a frontier region where resources were extremely scarce.

In terms of resources needed for Qi Cultivation, they were not much more abundant than those available to the Prince of the Dali Dynasty within the resource-rich and cultivation-revering Longevity Dao Field.
Yet even so, Luo Bing had reached the ninth layer of Qi Cultivation at the age of eighteen.
“Under normal circumstances, it indeed should be as you say,”
Su Yanyan’s eyes flashed with a flicker of peculiarity, “Regrettably, the second senior brother’s reforge this time was perhaps too comfortable in his environment, being indulged by everyone in the King of Zhongyong’s Mansion from a young age, leading to a stubborn and wayward nature, unwilling to engage in diligent cultivation.
Now, in his early twenties, he is still unsettled, mostly interested in various skills, collecting all kinds of treasures, with an unsteady will.
This of course makes his cultivation progress slow and his awakening struggle.”
Chen Dengming was momentarily at a loss for words.
This was an outcome he had not anticipated.
Perhaps if he had started as a clichéd poor scholar, the second senior brother might have been more steadfastly impoverished, with a better chance of awakening his soul.
