Nascent Soul Convention (6.4k for monthly pass)_4 Chapter 876: 358: Titled the Fighting Longevity Monarch!
Nascent Soul Convention (6.4k for monthly pass)_4 Amongst the top concerns being addressed, there is a dispute over the territorial division at Zhuhai Beach Pass and Tide Cliff between the Longevity Sect, Red Lotus Sword Sect, and the Eight-Armed Immortal Sect.”
He paused and looked towards Chen Dengming, slightly nodding as he said, “It’s undeniable that the Longevity Sect holds an advantage in terms of merits gained in the counterattack campaign, with Sect Leader Chen and Elder Lu showcasing outstanding military contributions.
Therefore, the Longevity Sect has the priority in the choice.
Fellow cultivators, do you agree?”
His words had just finished.
Iron Armor Sect’s Nascent Soul, Elder Lou Zhen, already raised his hand in greeting, his voice raspy as he said, “I agree!
The combat achievements of the Fighting Longevity Monarch are there for all to see.
...
With him around, those immortal old foes in the camp of the outer realm evil cultivators are deterred, not to mention the esteemed Elder Lu of the Longevity Taoist Lord?”
Upon these words, other Nascent Soul True Monarchs, such as Xuanchenniao of the Heavenly Dao Sect, also expressed their agreement.
Yet, the Red Lotus Sword Sect and the Eight-Armed Immortal Sect also had numerous allies.
Zuo Qiuling pressed down with both hands, waiting for the venue to quiet down, then said with a smile, “After all, there are two locations in dispute.
The comrades and divine transformation predecessors of the Red Lotus Sword Sect and the Eight-Armed Immortal Sect have also made contributions, thus…”
Zuo Qiuling then looked towards the Lotus Sword Tao Monarch.
Swoosh—
The Lotus Sword Tao Monarch’s eyes flashed like electric arcs, slightly nodding to Zuo Qiuling before turning to Chen Dengming with a mild salute.
“Sect Leader Chen, we’ve been disputing these two strategic locations for half a month.
Last time, you mentioned you slightly outperformed the Holy Mother of Beiyin, secretly extracting classified intelligence from her spirit, and deduced, along with the items left by the Qianluo Ghost King, that there’s a joint operation between the Nether Spring Ghost Shade and outer realm evil cultivators, potentially detrimental to the alliance.
“Is this merely your baseless speculation, or is there any truth to it?
I’d like you to provide us with a solid evidence…”
Chen Dengming calmly smiled, having anticipated that the controversy would culminate today, flexing his administrative muscle without surprise.
At this moment, however, he feigned ignorance and saluted, “May I know, Brother Mi, how I should prove myself?”
The Lotus Sword True Monarch, Mi Changzai, calmly said, “The Holy Mother of Beiyin possesses a late-stage Nascent Soul’s strength, and I consider her spiritual attainments to still surpass mine.
However, battles are fraught with ever-changing moments, and a momentary victory does not guarantee perpetual success.
I, being in the middle-stage of Nascent Soul, surpass Sect Leader Chen in cultivation.
“If Sect Leader Chen can match me in a contest of spirits, I will believe your words are true, and my Red Lotus Sword Sect will relinquish Tide Cliff, and I personally will assist you against the Three Saints Palaces.”}
Chen Dengming was surprised upon hearing this and deeply respected the gentlemanly demeanor of the Lotus Sword True Monarch.
Immediately, with a serious and respectful nod, he saluted, “Good!
The Red Lotus Sword Sect’s reputation is well earned.
I am willing to exchange pointers with Brother Mi to prove myself.”
No sooner had he spoken than he rapidly turned to another side to the Six Eyebrows True Monarch, saluting with a smile.
“May I know if Brother You has any insights?”
The Six Eyebrows True Monarch felt a jump in his heart and immediately smiled, “If Sect Leader Chen can convince the Lotus Sword True Monarch, Brother You naturally will have no objections, and the Eight-Armed Immortal Sect will withdraw from the competition at Zhuhai Beach Pass.”
Under such a sterling reputation, there is indeed no lack of spirited participants in the meeting.
Not wanting to directly confront Chen Dengming unless absolutely necessary, he preferred to amicably secure the Zhuhai Beach Pass ultimately.
The unpleasant tasks let the ill-tempered Lotus Sword True Monarch undertake.
Chen Dengming immediately discerned the thoughts of the Six Eyebrows True Monarch.
He, too, didn’t wish to offend anyone; the cultivators of the Longevity Sect, including the peace-seeking Chen Laodeng, harbored the same feelings.
But when it came to fighting for the rights and resources that rightfully belonged to the Longevity Sect, there was no other choice but for him, as the Sect Leader of the Longevity Sect, to take the lead.
However, this Six Eyebrows True Monarch thinking to be outwardly virtuous and inwardly crafty, taking all the good for himself, wouldn’t find it so easy to have his way.
Chen Dengming was well versed in human psychology.
The more these types feared offending others and were essentially soft yet pretended to be hard, the more one had to assert dominance, earning respect and benefits continually.
Chen Dengming, while outwardly polite, saluted with a smile, “Since Brother You is here, and has participated in the negotiations before, how could you refrain today?
How about this, if Chen happens to convince Brother Mi this time, Brother You might additionally craft two Magic Artifacts for me, and also provide some artifact refining guidance to my wife.
If I fail to persuade Brother Mi, I understand that Brother You once eagerly sought the River of Styx Water.
Fortunately…
I have some River of Styx Water and am willing to gift a measure to Brother You, also to form a good kinship.”
The Six Eyebrows True Monarch, You Ju Shen, was taken aback, not expecting Chen Dengming to make such a request.
However, it was indeed very normal; the artifact refining skills of the Eight-Armed Immortal Sect were famous throughout the Four Oceans, and as a master of this craft, he rarely offered his services, let alone provided guidance to external factions.

At such a juncture, with Chen Dengming making this request, even if he wanted to refuse, it would be difficult to do so.
If he refused again, it would indicate that he lacked confidence in the Lotus Sword True Monarch and their competition against the Longevity Sect, rendering the previous competitions futile.
The Eight-Armed Immortal Sect would not deserve that name anymore, it should be renamed Turtle Cult.
Moreover, Chen Dengming was also willing to offer the rare spiritual material, River of Styx Water, as an incentive.
He had indeed previously sought this water.
By offering it at this gathering, wasn’t Chen Dengming indirectly demonstrating to everyone that he indeed killed the Qianluo Ghost King, otherwise how could he possess this undercurrent spiritual material from Nether Spring.
“Since Sect Leader Chen has spoken, Six Eyebrows cannot just sit idly by and watch; joining in is better.”
The Six Eyebrows True Monarch no longer hesitated, laughing heartily, feigning indifference, and agreed to the terms.
