Forging Immortality through the Dao Seed

"Junior Brother Zhang Jing, at the Welcoming Immortal banquet, Junior Brother Jun did instigate a little, but fortunately, he did not cause any harm to your mount known as Lu 38."

Senior Sister Kong seemed oblivious to Zhang Jing's suddenly cold demeanor.

Or perhaps.

She noticed it.

However, Zhang Jing at present, only possessing Foundation Establishment Realm cultivation, is not enough to make Senior Sister Kong back down.

After all, when it comes to status.

She too is a formal direct disciple of True Monarch Yuanming and also the eldest sister. There is no need to overly concern herself with this junior brother's attitudes.

At least...currently it is so.

After finishing.

Senior Sister Kong slightly smiled. Her face was still as calm as ever.

"Junior Brother Jun will come personally to apologize and make amends later. When the time comes, you can simply make more demands."

She paused.

She cast a meaningful glance at Zhang Jing and continued to say:

"Junior Brother Zhang Jing, spare people when you can. That Heavenly True Monarch ancestor from Junior Brother Jun's clan might not be on par with our masters, but he is not an ordinary existence either. He has established formidable reputation in many realms, and many formidable spirits in the field are reputedly his friends."

"If it attracts his attention because of such a minor incident, it would be more harm than good."

"Indeed, Junior Brother, it's better to heed elder sister's advice. We can't mess with Junior Brother Jun."

At the side.

Senior Brother Jian Zhongfu and Senior Sister Zhai Sha, who are also from the Heavenly Realm lineage, echoed.

Upon hearing this.

Zhang Jing fell silent.

He found it slightly unbearable but he had to admit that Senior Sister Kong had a point.

At present, his cultivation was only at the Foundation Establishment Realm.

Even if he made a breakthrough later on,

he would just be a mere junior Golden Pill Realm cultivator.

Even with the Boundless Tai Yi Taoist Gate, his master True Monarch Yuanming, and his old teacher, the Seven Desire God King, standing behind him.

The mere thought of being secretly resented by a Heavenly True Monarch,

makes Zhang Jing's scalp tingle.

Heavenly True Monarch!

With limitless lifespan, they are almost indestructible.

They command various great Dao laws, creating new worlds with a single thought, and casually roaming infinite worlds.

Such terrifying beings whose existence is equivalent to a small world.

Ever since Zhang Jing joined the Tao Sect,

the most common description of Heavenly True Monarchs he had heard is: Below the Heavenly Immortals, all are as inconsequential as ants!

This single sentence explains everything.

Of course.

The fact that Zhang Jing has such considerations is also somewhat related to Lu 38 not suffering any actual harm.

On the opposite side.

The other four true apprentices seeing this situation, all adopted a posture of observing the situation, completely uninvolved.

They who are usually high and mighty true apprentices of the top ten Cave Heavens, Unity Realm True Immortals with infinite power.

But at this moment.

It is clearly a matter between disciples of True Monarch.

On one side are three direct disciples led by the eldest Sister Kong, who would they, the mere nominal disciples, dare to interfere.

On the other side.

Watching Zhang Jing somewhat embarrassed under the coercion of Senior Sister Kong and others,

Senior Brother Feng Wuyu couldn't help but sneer, followed by a low whisper:

"Heh heh, Junior Brother, don't overthink, just follow your instincts. With the master and several uncle masters standing behind you, what is there to fear? And, don't forget, the Seven Desire God King is also your elder teacher. Even if the Heavenly True Monarch ancestor of Jun Clan had ten times the courage, he wouldn't dare touch a hair on your head."

"Unless—he wants his clan to be wiped out!"

As soon as these words were spoken.

There was complete silence in the guest room.

Even the always calm Senior Sister Kong, her face also revealed a hint of surprise at this moment.

Immediately.

Like the other apprentices, she also looked at Zhang Jing with an extremely surprised gaze.

Seven Desire God King!

Isn't he the immortal giant of the Ancestor Demon School?

Why would he become the elder teacher of Junior Brother Zhang Jing in front of us, didn't he just come up from the Lower Realm?

Wait! Jiaoyun Realm?

That's not right either.

A secret realm, no matter how monstrous his performance, should not have attracted the attention of a God King.

For a moment.

Zhang Jing seemed to be shrouded in layer upon layer of mist in everyone's gaze.

And in their hearts.

The slight contempt they had because of his low cultivation had quietly disappeared.

Especially those four who were only nominal disciples of True Monarch Yuanming.

Their gaze towards Zhang Jing was as if they had seen a ghost.

"Junior Brother, as elder sister, I will make sure that Junior Brother Jun comes up with satisfactory compensation for you, at the same time, he will be confined for three hundred years. How does that sound?"

Senior Sister Kong's face remained calm as she gently asked.

In her voice.

There was a definite seriousness to it.

Zhang Jing glanced at Senior Brother Feng Wuyu beside him and seeing that he did not say anything else, he immediately understood.

The next moment.

"Then let's proceed according to your wishes, Senior Sister."

Zhang Jing said in a calm tone.

...

Time passed slowly.

In the reception room.

Only Zhang Jing and Senior Brother Feng Wuyu were left.

"Junior Brother, it's not that your Senior Brother isn't helping you, but that we've reached about the best outcome we can already. If we push any further, Senior Sister Kong will indeed compromise more, but it'd turn out bad for you instead."

Feng Wuyu expressed apologetically.

Zhang Jing gave a faint smile, put away the decree handed over by Senior Sister Kong just now, and said gently:

"Senior Brother, I understand. After all, behind Senior Brother Jun, there stands a Heavenly True Monarch who is related by blood. No matter what, I have to give some consideration."

"Very good!"

Feng Wuyu looked at Zhang Jing with appreciation:

"The power of a Heavenly Immortal and various mysterious methods are beyond the comprehension of cultivators like us who are below Heavenly Immortal. Even though you have Master and the Seven Desire God King behind you, you should still be cautious."

"After all, if someone intentionally plots against you and you die without leaving your Dao, even if the founder of the Dao Sect reverses the time river, he will not be able to resurrect you."

"However——"

Feng Wuyu's tone changed and he said with a smile:

"It would be another story if you, Junior Brother, step into the Unity Realm Stage. Haha, the Immortal Way is long and filled with obstacles."

"Thank you, Senior Brother, I've learned a lot."

Zhang Jing expressed his gratitude.

...

At the welcoming banquet.

Fascinating Immortal music filled the ears, miraculous Immortal Light filled the surroundings, highlighting the graceful dance of the Immortal Spirit, which was exceptionally beautiful and captivating.

And around them.

A large number of cultivators from various cave heavens were coming and going, cups intersecting.

They were discussing the Dao, casually chatting, playing games, and shooting, making the scene lively.

Lu 38, sitting closer to the top, widened his eyes, his eyes full of amazement.

He swayed his huge head with the rhythm of the Immortal music, completely intoxicated by it.

Is this the kind of happiness his master enjoys on a daily basis?

It's beyond words.

He finally got to see it today.

Meanwhile, across from Lu 38.

Senior Brother Jun in a white robe silently disappeared from his seat.

...

In a cave dwelling not far away.

"What? Not only do I - your junior brother need to admit my mistakes when I visit, but I also need to fulfill the conditions proposed by him as much as possible. And I have to be confined for three hundred years!"

"Eldest Senior Sister, why?"

"Despite him being a direct disciple of the master, our clan also has a Heavenly Immortal ancestor, how dare he, a mere Foundation Establishment cultivator from the Lower Realm, bully me like this?"

Junior Brother Jun was full of discontent as he stared at the three direct disciples of the Cave Heaven sitting above him.

His words revealed dissatisfaction.

"Because he is the direct disciple of the master, and because...he is also the disciple of the Seven Desire God King, is that reason enough?"

"By the way, the Seven Desire God King is an immortal Golden Immortal magnate."

At the end of her speech.

The expression on Junior Brother Jun's face instantly freezes. His eyes filled with disbelief.

"Wait, Senior Sister, you...you mean...Zhang Jing, that cultivator at the Foundation Establishment Realm, apart from Master True Monarch Yuanming, there...there's also another Immortal teacher who is an immortal Golden Immortal?"

"How is that possible?"

His voice trembled a little.

...

On the other side.

After seeing off Senior Brother Feng Wuyu.

Zhang Jing returned to his cultivation room, and a look of excitement involuntarily flashed in his eyes.

With a thought of his mind.

On the Jade Talisman.

The general experience column began to fluctuate again.

At the same time.

The experience of the twenty-four heavenly skills began to increase bit by bit.

This made the aura on Zhang Jing grow more and more intense.

...

An unknown amount of time passed.

It was as if everything had fallen into place.

The explosive aura on Zhang Jing, which had been like a volcano, suddenly calmed down, and then went silent bit by bit.

However.

That kind of feeling of repression seemed even more terrifying.

He slowly opened his eyes.

Inside the Mud Pill Palace.

The Jade Talisman trembled slightly.
