Chapter 2652: Chapter 542:
"This child is still one of those we kept among the people we initially recruited into our Great Teaching.’
"Oh? The boy left behind after Immortal Lord Xu Yi killed his parents.’
"That boy staying here probably has other intentions, doesn’t he?’
"What does it matter if he has other intentions? Are we really afraid he’ll rebel, that he’ll ambush us?’
In Heaven Accordance City, the Fourth Prince of Heavenly Clan watched the Enlightenment Light in the Void, his expression of having everything under control vanished along with his confident, faint smile as he murmured to himself, "Such a large number of half-step Golden Immortals achieving enlightenment in such a short time—quite an impressive method! This is your backup plan, isn’t it?
Even I am taken aback by such numbers. Is this the method of a Daluo Golden Immortal?
However, it’s only eight; it’s still not enough. The position of Alliance Hierarch will still be mine.’
His concern wasn’t the position of Alliance Hierarch but rather the terrifying means Cao Zhen demonstrated. Cao Zhen could now enable half-step Golden Immortals to achieve enlightenment; will he make more half-step Golden Immortals achieve enlightenment afterward?
What’s even scarier is if other half-step Golden Immortals can’t achieve enlightenment, will Cao Zhen help those at the Peak True Immortal Realm to achieve enlightenment and break through into half-step Golden Immortal?
The Human Clan was clearly severely injured by the attack from the Sky Clan back then, but how much time has passed, and the Human Clan already shows signs of revival!
Oh?
Have they broken through?
Suddenly, beams of Heavenly Tribulation light falling upon the Golden Immortal Realm arrived from the Eastern Province in the Void.
"This is the fourth one; the Eastern Province has already birthed four more Golden Immortals!"
This is truly terrifying!
Enlightenment is not something you can achieve just because you want to.
Following the enlightenment and breakthrough into True Immortal Realm by the Yin Yang Sect Hierarch and the Divine Melody Sect Hierarch, the Human Clan still has thirty-six half-step Golden Immortals.
After Cao Zhen deliberated or guided these thirty-six half-step Golden Immortals, only eight achieved enlightenment.
Among these eight, four have already broken through into the Golden Immortal Realm!
Of course, the remaining twenty-eight half-step Golden Immortals, although not achieving enlightenment, doesn’t mean they can’t break through.
Each of these thirty-six half-step Golden Immortals has found a new path, found the way to breakthrough; whether they can break through and when, depends on themselves. Cao Zhen has done all he could.
One by one, the half-step Golden Immortal realm experts, after thanking Cao Zhen, left Hundred Peaks Sect.
Just as they left, Nie Jie came over.
"Sect Hierarch, the commoners arriving from Central Continent are all arranged now. They have settled down; should we start searching among them for suitable people for Immortal Cultivation?
"Our sects also need to recover."
"Good," Cao Zhen nodded slightly, "These people from Central Continent, during the evaluation, we can appropriately broaden the age range. After all, they have always lived in Central Continent, so even if there are suitable people, they might not have been discovered. This time, we conduct a wide selection."
"Understood."
After Nie Jie hurriedly left, he gathered a group of experts from Hundred Peaks Sect; previously, when searching for suitable people for Cultivation, they would not select particularly strong experts.
But now things are different; the selection range has expanded. If ordinary disciples go to recruit disciples and then maneuver the Flying Boat to return, it would take too long.
Not to mention, if maneuvering the Flying Boat takes a month to return to Hundred Peaks Sect, not only would those commoners be restless, but what about their eating, drinking, and sanitation? They have not cultivated yet!
Hence, this time the team needs experts to lead.
Once Nie Jie finished speaking, the Peak Masters of various peaks collectively announced, "This time, Immortal Pen Peak can send an Earth Immortal Realm expert."
"Azure Pheasant Peak can send an Earth Immortal Realm expert too!"
"Earth Immortal Realm experts aren’t enough; Five Elements Peak can send an Immortality Regainment Realm expert!"
"We..."
Li Ke, as the Grand Elder of Hundred Peaks Sect, seeing the Peak Masters of various peaks voicing their intentions, said gravely, "Since all peaks wish to send people, how about this: each peak must send at least one person."
Upon hearing this, everyone agreed enthusiastically.
"Well said, Elder Li Ke!"
"Exactly, if each peak sends someone, talents won’t be buried! After all, some might have average Immortal Cultivation talent, but they excel in other areas; such as commoners extremely proficient in the Musical Rhythm or Cultivators in the Painting Way.
Without knowledge in these areas, one wouldn’t realize how advanced their Musical Rhythm or Painting Way skills have reached!"
Although Four Treasures Peak has few disciples, a large number came to this meeting, and most disciples from Four Treasures Peak are True Immortal Realm figures.
Xiang Ziyu did not sit with his senior and junior brothers and sisters but instead sat at the very front. He holds another role as the transmission Elder of Hundred Peaks Sect.
In any Great Teaching or Sect, the transmission Elder holds very high status among Elders, almost second to Grand Elder.
Hearing Li Ke’s words, Xiang Ziyu stood up from his seat and said, "In that case, I’ll represent Four Treasures Peak."
"You?"
Everyone displayed strange expressions towards Xiang Ziyu; Nie Jie even rubbed his forehead thinking perhaps he didn’t express himself clearly?
Suggesting to send some experts, but he did not say to send such powerful experts!
In the current Hundred Peaks Sect, Xiang Ziyu holds the highest Cultivation Base.
He is at the Peak True Immortal Realm!
Does this task warrant sending someone from the Peak True Immortal Realm?
"Is there a problem?" Xiang Ziyu noted the strange gazes from everyone and said seriously, "This is the first time since commoners from Central Continent came to our Eastern Province that Hundred Peaks Sect recruits disciples.
Among those Central Continent commoners, surely there are many Cultivators with hidden exceptional talent; like those elderly in their fifties or sixties, or seemingly ordinary commoners... you can’t discover them, but only I, as the protagonist, can find these exceptionally talented people and bring them back to Hundred Peaks Sect!"
