NOVEL NEXT Chapter 711: Heavenly Court Princess
Infinite Immortal Palace, Great Zhou Mountain.
Su Yu traveled through the Infinite Immortal Palace and arrived here, engaging in a Dao debate with all the disciples and even the elders of Great Zhou Mountain.
In a cave residence, Huo Ling'er's father gazed at Su Yu, who was debating Dao outside, his brows slightly furrowing as he sighed lightly, then turned to look at the Tianlong Mountain Master opposite him and said, "You're not going to stop him?"
The Tianlong Mountain Master understood the meaning of the Great Zhou Mountain Master, he gently shook his head and said, "Everyone has their own path. It's normal for him to want to walk his own path."
The Great Zhou Mountain Master said solemnly, "You can't not understand what path he's on. He's already not satisfied with merely the Life Immortal Path. With his talent, if he simply followed the Life Immortal Path, his future would be limitless, surpassing us is not impossible."
"But if he really takes this path, he might be eternally trapped below the Taiyin Immortal Realm! No different from becoming a cripple!"
The Tianlong Mountain Master still remained calm and said, "Geniuses have their own ideas, just as you and I did back then. I can protect his path but won't interfere with how he cultivates."
"Moreover, without experiencing some hardships, it's impossible to become truly accomplished. If we rigidly teach disciples, then the Infinite Immortal Palace would be full of such people, but such people will never become the Daozi of the Infinite Immortal Palace."
The Great Zhou Mountain Master remained silent for a long time, finally sighed lightly and nodded, "I hope you are doing the right thing."
On the Dao platform.
Huo Ling'er sat opposite Su Yu again, fully manifesting the Fire Immortal Dao, countering the Fire Immortal Dao that Su Yu performed, something that was never tried before there at the Infinite Immortal Palace.
She was able to perceive many intriguing mysteries from the Fire Immortal Dao performed by Su Yu that she had never seen before.
Fire is fierce, but it also has a gentle side.
One method can lead to understanding all methods.
Although Su Yu had once warned her not to dabble in other Immortal Dao, instead she should focus solely on the Fire Immortal Dao, but this doesn't mean the Fire Immortal Dao can't encompass all, integrating the mysteries of other Immortal Daos.
For example, the Nirvana Fire.
For example, the Thunder Fire.
And for example, the Poison Fire.
Until the debate ended, when Huo Ling'er opened her eyes, her gaze towards Su Yu had changed. She hesitated slightly, then bit her red lips and looked at Su Yu, saying, "Senior Brother Cang, Ling'er wishes to cultivate by your side, please allow it, Senior Brother."
Su Yu looked at Huo Ling'er, pondering for a moment.
Since parting from the Infinite Immortal Palace, Huo Ling'er had changed quite a bit.
Her cultivation had broken through to the True Immortal Realm, and the once aggressive Fire Immortal Dao aura on her had become much more restrained, no longer like a walking hot chili pepper as before.
Her dress also made her more like a delicate fairy, becoming much more ladylike.
From the recent Dao debate, it's evident that Huo Linger's enlightenment and control over the Fire Immortal Dao had reached an extremely profound level.
Apparently, her perception was not lacking.
Additionally, with Huo Ling'er's identity as the legitimate daughter of the Buzhou Mountain Master, Su Yu thought it over and said, "Cultivating by my side is fine, but there's no need to pursue."
Huo Ling'er was secretly delighted upon hearing this and looked at Su Yu with some shyness, "Thank you, Senior Brother."
Many disciples around from Buzhou Mountain saw this and were heartbroken, clutching their chests and looking lost.
But they didn't dare to provoke this Daozi, Su Yu, they just wailed in their hearts that Huo Ling'er was the perfect Dao companion template in the minds of many of them, but now their goddess was going to someone else.
At that moment, a disciple in the Golden Immortal Realm leaped onto the Dao platform, angrily saying, "Daozi, this disciple challenges you."
Half a year later, that disciple walked down the Dao platform feeling lost and broken.
He, as a Golden Immortal, couldn't even debate against this True Immortal Realm Daozi, in fact, he was suppressed throughout the entire time.
What shamed him the most was that he went up there to find fault, yet in the end, he just kneeled there. The key point is, when he wanted to offer allegiance, the Daozi wouldn't accept him! Wailing, his Dao heart shattered!
This Golden Immortal senior brother covered his face and tearfully fled like a shooting star.
When Su Yu left Buzhou Mountain, Huo Ling'er ran along with him.
The Buzhou Mountain Master glared at the Tianlong Mountain Master and said, "Well taught disciple of yours!"
The Tianlong Mountain Master, however, laughed heartily, saying, "Don't be like that, maybe you'll gain something. Next time Linger comes back, she might bring you a plump grandchild."
Upon hearing this, the Buzhou Mountain Master's eyes gleamed, restraining his anger, and still keeping a straight face said, "The grandchild belongs to my Buzhou Mountain!"
The Tianlong Mountain Master, still smiling, said, "We're like family."
Though inwardly he was disdainful, thinking, "Keep dreaming!"
No matter what, it won't be Buzhou Mountain's turn.
Soon after, the Tianlong Mountain Master left with Su Yu, continuing to protect Su Yu's path.
A woman appeared, looking somewhat worried in the direction Su Yu and Huo Ling'er left, and said, "Husband, is this Daozi really a suitable match?"
The Buzhou Mountain Master returned to his cave, sat down, and snorted lightly, "If he can find his own path, then he might stand atop the Immortal World."
"However...."
The Buzhou Mountain Master sighed softly and murmured, "Finding one's own path is easier said than done."
In the entire Immortal World, those who have attained the Dao so far are only those few.
Yet even so, he still felt it was worth a gamble.
If he truly succeeds, his Huo Family might soar to the heavens with him.
Su Yu continued to the next territory of the Infinite Immortal Palace, chatting leisurely with Huo Ling'er on the way, learning about the origins of the Huo Family.
It's said that the Huo Family's ancestor once refined an Immortal Realm Innate Immortal Fire by chance, fusing it into their bloodline, hence the Huo Family's Immortal Undying Fire bloodline was created.
Su Yu was curious and said, "Then where is that Innate Immortal Fire of the Huo Family?"
Huo Ling'er whispered softly, "Not sure.... Over the years, our Huo Family has been investigating the past events, but have only found a few unverified pieces of information, some say the ancestor's Immortal Fire was taken by a Great Power of the Human Clan, some say the ancestor fell into the hands of the Demon Clan, and some say the ancestor perished on the battlefields of the heavens, thus the Immortal Undying Fire also vanished without a trace."
Su Yu felt it was a pity upon hearing this; if the Huo Family still had the foundation of the Immortal Undying Fire, they might have become one of the top Immortal families in the Immortal World.
Of course, that would require the Huo Family's strength to match.
After all, the value of this Innate Immortal Fire Seed is likely comparable to an Innate Spiritual Treasure, who wouldn't covet it.
Time ebbed and flowed.
As Su Yu continued to debate Dao within the Infinite Immortal Palace, his reputation gradually spread, and many began to see what this Daozi intended to do. Some forces in the Immortal World admired him, while others mocked and ridiculed him, with rumors gradually spreading that the new Daozi of the Infinite Immortal Palace was overestimating himself.
One day, Su Yu arrived at a new territory of the Immortal Palace within the Infinite Immortal Palace, and someone came to welcome him.
But the moment he entered the Immortal Palace, a cold aura appeared and locked onto him from afar.
Su Yu looked up and saw several figures on an Immortal Mountain in the distance. Leading them was an elegant fairy wearing an Exquisite Immortal Skirt, her face covered with a pink veil.
Seeing Su Yu's gaze, the fairy coldly said, "Are you the Daozi of the Infinite Immortal Palace, Cang Yuan? Not bad, I'll give you an opportunity. From now on, follow this princess, obey this princess's commands, and this princess can grant you supreme opportunities."
As Su Yu listened to this, black lines appeared on his forehead: "...."
Staring at her silently for a long time, thinking to himself, a fairy with this big of a bosom and brainless, he hadn't encountered for a long time.
At this time, he slowly turned to a confused elder of this Immortal Palace and asked, "Is this... really the Infinite Immortal Palace?"
That elder, equally surprised and angry, dared not scold the fairy and just wiped non-existent sweat from his forehead, hurriedly sending a message, "Reporting to Daozi, she, she is the sixteenth princess of the Heavenly Court, Xian Ning Princess."
