Infinite Comprehension by Taking In Disciples: Martial Uncle, Please Ascend!

Chapter 175 - 174: Sowing Discord?_1



Sect Master and the Seventh Elder want to learn from Junior Uncle?

The crowd was somewhat stunned, as it was clear that both of them meant to follow in Junior Uncle’s steps and not ascend to the Immortal World!

The venue became quiet, and people looked at each other, wondering, what kind of divine idea was this?

The Sixth Elder couldn’t hold it in any longer and snickered, “Stop joking! Junior Uncle could become an immortal in the Kunlun Realm, can you?”

The crowd also burst into laughter, and the First Elder said, “That’s right, once one has crossed the Heaven Tribulation, they will receive the Heaven and Earth Baptism, condense an Immortal Body, and in no time they’ll have to ascend. Can you just decide not to ascend if you don’t want to?”

Mu Xingzhi’s gaze swept across the crowd, “If one abandons their physical body and converts to cultivating as a Loose Immortal, couldn’t they avoid ascending?”

The smiles on everyone’s faces froze. That’s not right, is it?

After achieving immortality, still abandon the physical body?

For what reason!

“With Junior Uncle here, we don’t need to worry about the Responding to Calamity Pill. Thus, converting to cultivate as a Loose Immortal is not out of the question. If, in the future, we find the Ascend to Immortal Platform and the Sky-reaching Road, we can still go to the Immortal World to condense our Immortal Bodies, but…” The First Elder continued, his gaze shifting towards Mu Xingzhi and the Seventh Elder.

He paused before saying, “But what if Junior Uncle goes to the Immortal World?”

A smile appeared on Mu Xingzhi’s face, “I was just speaking off the cuff, you don’t have to take it seriously. After all, the cultivation level of both the Seventh Elder and me is still low, and the Tribulation is still far off!”

Although he said this, everyone could see that the Sect Master had clearly made up his mind.

They weren’t wrong; Mu Xingzhi had already prepared hundreds of Responding to Calamity Pills for himself, and the Seventh Elder had done the same, hadn’t he?

With so many Responding to Calamity Pills in hand, and the ability to comprehend various laws in the Seven Mystery Tower, why would they ascend?

To go to the Immortal World, they would wait until only a few years of their lifespan remained!

Mu Xingzhi looked at the Seventh Elder and secretly guessed in his heart, his own plan stemmed from not finding a successor for the Sect Master, but what about the Seventh Elder?

Speaking of a successor for the Sect Master, Mu Xingzhi felt a headache coming on. It was extremely difficult to find someone suitable for cultivating the Heaven Secret Immortal Scroll, and just as Lei Yuan, a prodigious talent emerged, the lad had no interest in the position of Sect Master at all.

So, there was no other way, Mu Xingzhi could only hoard some of the Responding to Calamity Pills for himself.

With these pills, even if one converted to cultivating as a Loose Immortal, the millennial Loose Immortal Tribulation wouldn’t be a concern anymore.

“Alright, time to get to work. Hurry up and send out the invitations!” said Mu Xingzhi before heading towards the Seven Mystery Tower.

Someone ascending is a joyful event, naturally, invitations must be sent to all the major powers in the Southern Domain to witness the ceremony.

The Elders glanced at the invitations inside their storage rings and smiled knowingly.

Thinking back, the invitation for Junior Uncle’s ascension had been prepared long ago, but alas…

It’s better left unsaid, for now Seventeen predecessors were ascending, and the Heavenly Mechanism Sect was glorious!

Three months later, the Heavenly Mechanism Sect was festively decorated everywhere!

At the foot of the Eighteenth Peak, countless powerhouses from external forces had gathered, each with an excited expression gazing at the seven-layer Immortal Tower halfway up the mountain.

“That must be the legendary Seven Mystery Tower, indeed just like in the rumors, the rules of heaven and earth around it are incredibly active!”

“A disciple of mine had the honor of being invited by the Heavenly Mechanism Sect to cultivate inside for a month. Just a month on the outside, but it was sixty years inside, and during that time, he managed to comprehend more than twenty space laws with a Fusion Dao cultivation base and incorporated them into his swordsmanship, creating a unique Space Sword Skill,” boasted an elder from the Sword Sect.

Dozens of gazes simultaneously turned towards the old man, most filled with envy, but many others couldn’t help but tease.

“A Seventh Tribulation Loose Immortal from our Taoist Mysterious Sect has also received an invitation to cultivate there for a month,” said an Elder from the Taoist Mysterious Sect with a chuckle. “He claimed that inside, a month was equivalent to one hundred and twenty years, and he comprehended more than two thousand fire rules, resulting in a tremendous increase in strength!” People grew even more envious!

In recent times, many forces had received invitations, but the number of slots given was limited, and the time allowed was merely a month.

Even so, those who were invited became geniuses overnight, after all, mastering the power of rules before becoming an immortal was a terrifying feat!

An old man from the Sword Sect looked at the Elder from the Taoist Mysterious Sect with a meaningful gaze and said, “With the Seven Mystery Tower in their possession, the Heavenly Mechanism Sect is likely now the first among the top ten sects!”

“That’s certain. I heard that in the past few months, more than thirty Loose Immortals have joined the Heavenly Mechanism Sect and became its Guest Elders,” someone chimed in.

Instigating discord?

The smile on the face of the Elder from the Taoist Mysterious Sect stiffened for a moment. The first among the top ten sects had always been their Taoist Mysterious Sect. Although a new ranking hadn’t been established, in everyone’s eyes, it seemed that the Heavenly Mechanism Sect was now the first!

Clearing his throat, the Elder from the Taoist Mysterious Sect said with a smile, “The top ten sects are connected like branches of the same tree. As long as it leads to better development of the Southern Domain, what does it matter who is first and who is tenth?”

Having said that, he led the people from the Taoist Mysterious Sect toward the outer perimeter and Welcoming Guests Peak.

People from various major forces were arranged by the Heavenly Mechanism Sect to reside in the many Welcoming Guests Peaks at the periphery, and one of these was where the Taoist Mysterious Sect was staying.

Inside the house, Sect Master Xuan Yifeng was playing chess with Feng Wanli. At that moment, the Elder walked in and said, “Ancestor, Sect Master, everyone outside is saying that the Heavenly Mechanism Sect is the top of the ten major sects. If this continues, our position will be jeopardized!”

Feng Wanli stared at the chessboard. “That’s good. Being first comes with too much responsibility, and one is always in the eye of the storm. I never agreed with competing for that position.”

Xuan Yifeng nodded. “The Ancestor is right. Elder Lin, have you been stuck in the early stages of Tribulation Crossing for a thousand years now?”

Elder Lin’s frown was subtle, but he immediately understood the implications of Xuan Yifeng and Feng Wanli’swords and hurriedly bowed, saying, “I understand. I will resign from the Elder position right away to concentrate on cultivation.”

Xuan Yifeng and Feng Wanli nodded in unison. After Elder Lin had left, Xuan Yifeng said, “Elder Lin is too clever for his own good, and he won’t get far on the path of cultivation.”

“What does that have to do with me? However, you should still remind him not to scheme against the Heavenly Mechanism Sect; otherwise, he might bring disaster upon our sect,” Feng Wanli said.

Xuan Yifeng nodded. “Ancestor, won’t you continue to cultivate in the Seven Mystery Tower?”

“The rules I’ve comprehended are enough to afford me extremely high treatment in the sects of the Immortal World, besides, new Lower Realm People have already arrived. How can I continue to linger?” Feng Wanli sighed.

“Ancestor, you’ve lost!” Xuan Yifeng pointed at the chessboard and smiled.

Feng Wanli was startled and then shook his head, his gaze shifting toward the Eighteenth Peak. “Li Cheng hasn’t left his seclusion yet. I’m still waiting to say my goodbyes!”

“Oh, speaking of him, he’s just come out of seclusion. After saying goodbye, I’ll head back. I’ve already said what needed to be said to you; you know what to do,” said Feng Wanli, vanishing from the spot.

The smile on Xuan Yifeng’s face gradually faded as he spoke, “Shadow Elder!”

Silently, a dark shadow appeared a zhang away from Xuan Yifeng, bowing respectfully, “What orders do you have, Sect Master?”

“Given Elder Lin’s temperament, he is sure to seek out the Artifact Sect. Please take action and ensure his complete disappearance,” ordered Xuan Yifeng indifferently.

The shadow frowned slightly. “Harming a fellow sect member, isn’t that inappropriate?”

“It’s known only to you and me. Besides, if he remains alive, he will surely provoke the Heavenly Mechanism Sect, and when that happens, it will be the entire Taoist Mysterious Sect that suffers.”

“For the whole sect, the death of one Elder is nothing significant,” rationalized the shadow, who nodded in understanding and then disappeared.

Xuan Yifeng’s gaze turned to the Seven Mystery Tower. “After this observance, who knows how many will be undone. The Southern Domain, I fear, is about to descend into chaos.”
