Living in the Doomsday and Becoming an Immortal Alone

Chapter 1097 - 500: Master Uncle

One day, a wisp of Primordial Spirit from Master Wang emerged and effortlessly entered the Mountain Protection Array of Wangxian Valley.Wangxian Valley is different from other Immortal Sects, where the higher one’s cultivation, the higher one resides;

the elders of Wangxian Valley mostly have their own courtyards within the valley, while only the disciples, stewards, and outer disciples live in the lofts and caves on the surrounding cliffs.

The entire valley is lush with greenery;

six hundred years have passed, yet there has been no change.

Wang Jixuan’s wisp of Primordial Spirit passed through the four-layered array and reached the inner sect of Wangxian Valley.

In various courtyards, young disciples could be seen making final preparations for the grand competition, and by looking up, one could see the stewards flying back and forth setting up the arena.

Wang Jixuan sensed dozens of powerful auras right in the center of the valley.

There sits a majestic hall with doors on all four sides, gathering a significant portion of the top Righteous Path experts, seated at seven or eight tables, discussing Taoism and enjoying feasts with laughter.

Wang Jixuan’s Primordial Spirit stopped outside the hall, not daring to enter lightly.

He observed carefully.

Old Daoists and elder women with childlike faces and white hair exuding immortal aura were either drinking and making merry or chatting over tea, appearing very leisurely.

They were unaware of the Dark Sect or that the Heavenly Dao had already extended its reach into this Xu Realm. The Righteous Path is significantly stronger than the Demon Path, and such complacency is understandable.

Wang Jixuan saw the elder sitting at the main seat, his eyes flickering slightly.

Master Uncle has grown old.

Since Master’s death, it has been Master Uncle taking care of me; if not for him bearing the pressure for me, the elders wouldn’t easily permit me to attempt the Heavenly Tribulation.

Master Uncle is now a late-stage Tribulation Crossing expert, not far from Mahayana, but it seems his life expectancy is unable to keep pace.

’If he cannot reach Mahayana and tries to cross the Heavenly Tribulation, it would be a great regret for Sect Leader Master Uncle.’

However, cultivation is such a matter where a minute difference is a difference; even spiritual pills can’t reverse fate.

At Sect Leader Master Uncle’s table sat the giants of the Righteous Path.

There was an old monk with eyebrows reaching his shoulders, a fairy as cold as ice, and a somewhat shabby, unrestrained old beggar;

Wangxian Valley’s two Mahayana Supreme Elders, four Tribulation Crossing elders, were hosting in various spots, each at a table, responsible for small talk, connecting conversations, and enlivening the atmosphere.

Wangxian Valley’s elders continuously brought out fine wine and delicacies, rotating them from table to table.

’At this rate, they could eat for days and nights without finishing.’

’Such is the quaint custom of the cultivation world.’

Wang Jixuan licked his lips.

Not that he was greedy, but considering Amina and Xiao Huating liked to eat, if he showed his cultivation, perhaps he could let them in to have a feast.

However, considering the suddenness and convenience of actions later, Wang Jixuan dismissed the notion of revealing himself voluntarily.

How should he warn them?

Wang Jixuan thought carefully for a moment, and in the end, decided to use the simplest yet most reliable method.

"Sect Leader Tai Ye? Sect Leader Tai Ye?"

Daoist Tai Ye, who was toasting and boasting with fellow Daoists, paused.

He glanced around, finding the strongest top ten members of the Righteous Path at the same table, none detecting any anomaly.

"Sect Leader Tai Ye, do not show any change in demeanor; this poor Taoist is a Sky Net Cultivator, here to warn Sect Leader Tai Ye.

"This mischief by Demon Cultivators is not a spur of the moment; it is backed by the Dark Sect, which has sent over a dozen Red Dust Wanderer Immortals, numerous Da Luo, and hundreds of Integration Experts to this realm, intending a massacre.

"Please prepare in advance, do not wait until the Dark Sect’s slaughter blade falls, regretting it too late.

"If seeking a sliver of hope, it must be done unexpectedly, using thunderous means against the Demon Cultivators to prevent them from joining forces inside and out, becoming an overwhelming power.

"This poor Taoist will take his leave first."

After transmitting the message, Wang Jixuan’s wisp of Primordial Spirit clung quietly to the door frame, observing Sect Leader Tai Ye’s reaction.

He saw Sect Leader Tai Ye frowning slightly, contemplating for a short while, and then continued drinking and conversing with those top experts of the Righteous Path at the table, only with a hint more doubt in his expression.

As expected, only such sound transmission is hard to convince anyone.

So what to do?

Call out Sect Leader Tai Ye?

With so many experts here, wouldn’t that be directly exposing myself, possibly with Dark Sect spies among them...

The wisp of Primordial Spirit quietly returned to the main body.

Wang Jixuan opened his eyes on the Cloud Platform, frowning as he gazed down at the valley, within which only layers of Immortal Light could be seen.

Out of personal concern, Wang Jixuan did not wish to see Wangxian Valley fall under the Dark Sect’s slaughter blade.

He had given the warning he needed to give;

What other methods are there to make them more vigilant?

Wang Jixuan quickly pondered, only to realize he seemed to have hit a dead end, forgetting even the simplest solution.

Just throw a projection sphere, take an overhead view of the northwest, and let them see it directly, right?

’This might be a case of concern leading to confusion.’

Daoist Wang gently raised an eyebrow, then switched his mind to the Foreign Soul Puppet.

His Foreign Soul Puppet was staying at the First Base, directly arranging matters there with Mu Dan.

A moment later, two high-speed drones equipped with optical invisibility were launched, reaching the surface about three hours later.

In fact, if Wang Jixuan allowed the Foreign Soul to remain here, utilizing its cultivation to investigate the transmissions of these Mahayana and Tribulation Crossing experts, he might find some peace of mind.

There was no lack of preparation here.

In fact, the experts gathered here knew far more than he assumed.

...

At the gathering.

Tai Ye carefully mulled over the recently heard transmission, feeling a subtle sense in his heart.

On one hand, the transmission seemed very familiar;

On the other hand...

How did another Sky Net cultivator appear?

"Old Tai, why do you seem so absent-minded?"

The old beggar, mouth full of grease, laughed warmly beside him:

"Worried about the upcoming matters?"

A nearby icy-cold woman transmitted a reminder: "Transmission."

So, the seven or eight experts at the main table resumed transmitting, continuing with their surface-level pleasantries.

Tai Ye mumbled a few times in thought: "Having this event at my humble mountain gate, to say I am not worried would be false. I can’t help but feel uneasy at the thought that perhaps the disciples might suffer casualties."

"Amitabha," the old monk sighed, "Once the contest begins, arrangements can be made for the junior disciples to evacuate first."

"Even so, we must not arouse the other party’s suspicion."

"Brother Tai, the contribution Wangxian Valley has made for the Righteous Path will never be forgotten. Now, with the world in peril and those external demons advancing fiercely, even with the secret assistance of the Immortal Realm envoy, our chances are only thirty to forty percent. We must resort to a surprise force."

"Alas, this is our only chance, and afterward, we will be on the defensive."

Tai Ye asked: "How have the experts from various factions arrived?"

"Rest assured, Brother Tai, all has been arranged properly."

"We’ve hidden seventy percent and shown thirty percent, so that the Demon Cultivators might send more experts our way. As soon as they arrive, the large array will ensnare them, and then we shall unleash chaos upon them!"

"Don’t be too hasty," Tai Ye cautioned, "First, force the other side to reveal themselves. According to the Sky Net experts, the number of external demons is indeed considerable. By luring their vanguard into the array, we might increase our odds by ten percent."

Each person nodded, some stroking their beards in contemplation, others pinching flowers with a smile, continuing their discussion.

After thorough consideration, Tai Ye decided to share the transmission he recently received with the fellow cultivators present.

After listening, their expressions subtly changed, each transmitting their thoughts.

"This doesn’t seem right. How is there a second group claiming to be Heavenly Net experts?"

"Is this person really truthful? Over a dozen Red Dust Wanderer Immortals? Then what are we even fighting for? When those previous Sky Net experts contacted us, didn’t they say those called Dark Sect members amounted to merely three to five Red Dust Immortals and several hundred in the Unification Realm? How could their numbers have doubled from thin air?!"

"Could it be that the Dark Sect members received reinforcements?"

"Is this second group of Sky Net experts also reinforcements?"

"Damn, could we have fallen into their trap? Why do the two groups of Sky Net experts seem unaware of each other’s existence?"

The atmosphere at the table grew more eerie.

Nevertheless, this group of experts lived up to their name as leaders of the Righteous Path. Having navigated this realm for years, leading powerful factions or having earned immense reputations, they were certainly not ordinary people.

"We mustn’t let them lead us by the nose," Tai Ye decided decisively, "Advance the competition and force those Demon Sect experts to reveal themselves. Since we are well prepared, catch them off guard!"

Each person made their own calculations, nodding one after another.

"Shouldn’t we also contact those Sky Net experts?"

"Just inform them. They had previously mentioned that the path to this realm has been blocked by the Dark Sect, and their manpower is limited."

"Better to rely on ourselves than to ask for help."

"As cultivators, protecting the living and safeguarding the sect relies entirely on our Dao skills. Let’s fight openly and boldly!"

Tai Ye resolutely nodded, immediately raised his wine cup, and stood up.
