i am immortal, join the immortal cultivation chat group

After a brief farewell to the Sixth Princess, Qing Lian, Chen Changsheng left the imperial city with Miao Miao.

With the departed gone, there was no need to stay.

Chen Changsheng and Qing Lian would occasionally visit each other, and their conversations were pleasant, but he couldn't find the same sense of intimacy he had with Luo Liuxi.

It was probably related to their upbringing.

Luo Liuxi and Chen Qianqian were both raised in sects, while Qing Lian grew up in the palace, where moral education was stricter, so she always gave people a sense of distance.

Without Wang Lu's Divine Envoy Kingdom, he would be more comfortable returning to Mystical Immortal City to manage his Dao Treasure Pavilion, without any attachment to this bustling city.

In these twenty-odd years of leisurely life, the world of cultivation had undergone dramatic changes.

The Ancient Immortal Dao lineage had begun to take shape, and the number of names on the Elder Token had reached eleven.

Chen Changsheng, Luo Liuxi, Zhuo Heng, Chen Qianqian, Qing Lian, Wu Yingmei, Zhuang Zongzheng...

In addition to the familiar names, there were also four unfamiliar names, who were the old group members Luo Liuxi had mentioned.

Chen Changsheng searched for the four people's information in the group based on their names and discovered that they were all大佬 (big shots).

Li Shang, in the late Yuanying stage, Du Changping, in the early Huashen stage, Nie Qing, in the early Lianxu stage, and Qi Xianjue, in the mid Lianxu stage.

Although Chen Changsheng had never met these four people, Luo Liuxi said that they were all trustworthy old group members who used to be very active and had met in person. However, in recent centuries, they had either been in seclusion or exploring forbidden areas, so they didn't have time to check the group messages.

In order to find these four people and invite the forces behind them to join the Ancient Immortal Dao lineage, Luo Liuxi had spent more than a decade to finally get it done.

Now that Luo Liuxi had entered a secret realm to explore, the subsequent development of the Ancient Immortal Dao lineage was naturally left to the current elders.

Only Chen Changsheng was a salted fish who didn't work, while the others had recruited disciples for the Ancient Immortal Dao lineage.

Currently, the number of Dao lineage disciples had reached over a hundred.

Don't underestimate the pitifully small number of disciples, but behind the hundred or so people were a hundred or so cultivation forces, gathered together, forming a huge force.

The disciples who joined the Dao lineage were all chosen talents who had been screened for strength and character, responsible for connecting the Ancient Immortal Dao lineage with their own forces, and their reward was ancient inheritance techniques.

The Ancient Immortal Dao lineage was gradually gaining fame, but it didn't go around causing trouble like the Sacred Flame Sect, carving out a fierce reputation.

"A Sacred Flame Sect gathered from demons and heretics, and an Ancient Immortal Dao lineage gathered from the righteous, both with a large number of ancient Dao methods passed down. What do you think will happen when they fight?"

Chen Changsheng heard the customers' discussion while passing by an inn to rest.

A Qi Refining cultivator pondered seriously, "It's hard to say. Both forces have emerged out of nowhere and have an implicit tendency to divide the world equally. I don't think the rise of the two major forces is necessarily a good thing."

The cultivator next to him agreed, "Great minds think alike. I think we loose cultivators should also form an alliance to have a chance of survival!"

"Laughable. Loose cultivators are a mixed bag, and everyone is cautious. Who dares to trust strangers?"

"Moreover, the reason why loose cultivators are loose cultivators is either because their aptitude is poor or they don't like the constraints of sects. Forming an alliance for no reason is still being bound by rules."

"Fellow Daoist is right. I don't think the two suddenly emerging forces can achieve anything. It must be a trap with a conspiracy involved."

The cultivators in the inn had different opinions. Some valued the foundation of the two major forces, while others thought that the two major forces might be a flash in the pan.

The structure of the cultivation world would not be easily changed. Sect alliances were nothing new.

Internal conflicts would appear in a hundred or two hundred years, and eventually they would fall apart.

After learning about the views of outside cultivators on the budding Ancient Immortal Dao lineage and the Sacred Flame Sect, Chen Changsheng and Miao Miao quietly left the inn. No one around them paid attention to them. Similar master-disciple pairs on the road were common in the cultivation world.

He believed that the management system of the Ancient Immortal Dao lineage needed to be further strengthened, especially the hierarchical division of power.

The master and disciple duo rode a flying boat across the Holy Region, traveling and playing along the way, forgetting time.

When they arrived at a town to rest, they saw the townspeople gathered under a charred, withered tree to discuss matters. People had brought out a basket of fruits and a hundred roasted chickens, ducks, and geese, filling the table.

"Is this some kind of sacrificial activity?"

Miao Miao covered her face with a veil. Her purple-gold gauze dress showed off her slender figure, and her beautiful eyes were filled with curiosity.

Chen Changsheng walked into the crowd, patted an old man's shoulder, and asked, "Old man, what kind of custom is this?"

The old man's skin was a healthy bronze color. He didn't act like an outsider when he met a stranger and sighed familiarly, "Our Willow Town holds a spirit sacrifice ceremony every year for this willow tree in front of us."

The willow tree was charred all over, as if it had been struck by lightning. It had long lost its vitality and was completely withered.

Right now, it was just a hollow tree trunk, and it was impossible to imagine the meaning of sacrificing to it.

"This willow tree has guarded our Willow Town for decades."

"A few months ago, it suddenly withered overnight. We couldn't figure out the reason, so we have been holding a spirit sacrifice ceremony once a month for several months, but there has been no response."

"In the middle, we also encountered several monster attacks in a row. Fortunately, the Buddhist temple on Mount Jueyun showed its divine power at a critical moment, otherwise our Willow Town would be finished!"

The old man looked at the willow tree and啧啧 (tsked), sighing at the departure of the willow tree and the salvation of the Buddhist temple.

"So you are also sacrificing to the willow tree this time?" Chen Changsheng asked.

The old man immediately shook his head, "No, the willow tree is probably dead. We are going to offer these foods to the high monks of the Buddhist temple and send a batch of disciples to the temple to study."

"I understand you sending fruits, but sending chickens, ducks, and geese doesn't seem appropriate, does it?"

Chen Changsheng's gaze turned to the table full of meat, and his expression became strange.

The old man waved his hand again after hearing this, "Young man, you misunderstood. This meat is not for the high monks to eat, but for the juniors who are practicing in the temple. The high monks have compassion and do not require the villagers of our Willow Town to become monks. They exceptionally teach Buddhist teachings so that we have the ability to protect ourselves."

The more Chen Changsheng listened, the stranger he felt.

Before he could ask for details, several Foundation Establishment stage cultivators suddenly descended from the sky.

The villagers of Willow Town all showed reverence and saluted, "Greetings, Immortals!"

"Everyone, there is danger on Mount Jueyun. Please do not go out in the near future. You can hand over the gifts to us."

One of the cultivators stepped forward a few steps and looked at Chen Changsheng, "Fellow Daoist, are you also here to investigate the demon matter?"

"Demons?" Chen Changsheng was stunned for a moment, then shook his head, "We are just passing by and haven't figured out the situation in Willow Town yet."

"It is our duty to slay demons and eliminate evil. Meeting is fate. Fellow Daoist, you can come with us to Mount Jueyun!"

The cultivator's eyes were bright and energetic, and he shouted with great momentum.

As soon as Chen Changsheng heard this, he immediately replied, "You go ahead. My disciple and I are seriously injured and need to recuperate for a while."
