Who Let Him Cultivate Immortality

Chapter 329: If This Immortal Venture Succeeds, The Nine Nethers Shall Rise

“The heritage of the Heavenly Court Sect is truly awe-inspiring!” Confirming that the other party was indeed the ancient Heavenly Court Sect, Petrified Bone no longer had a probing attitude and was ready to discuss cooperation in detail.

He believed that with the help of the Heavenly Court Sect, the power of the Nine Nether Sect would reach new heights.

“To be honest, although I speak of these matters in detail, they are actually stories my master told me. When these events occurred, I had not yet been born.”

Lu Yang spoke with apparent humility, but the confidence on his face was unmistakable.

Li Haoran and Qin Yanyan remained cold and silent, like ruthless assassins.

Though the father and daughter had some acting skills and had practiced repeatedly before setting out, they felt that in this situation, the best approach was to say nothing and act as high-level experts.

The Fifth Elder thought that Lu Yang was truly deserving of being the top of his class. When the nine Dao Seeking Sect members were Lu Yang’s age, they couldn’t weave such flawless tales.

Meng Jingzhou had doubts in his mind. He didn’t know much about ancient legends and couldn’t tell if Lu Yang’s stories were true or false, but he had a feeling that Lu Yang was telling the truth, though perhaps not the whole truth.

Huo Huashen felt like an illiterate person; he didn’t understand the content of Lu Yang and Zhou Shan’s conversation. However, it didn’t matter because his role was to be part of the crowd, maintaining a cold expert image.

“Although Daoist Lu keeps calling me Sect Leader, I actually hold the position of Vice Sect Leader in the Nine Nether Sect. On this visit, I can fully represent the Sect Leader in deciding the cooperation matters between our sects.”

“Before coming, the Sect Leader asked me to relay two questions to your sect.”

“Daoist Lu will answer to the best of his knowledge.”

Petrified Bone, mimicking the Sect Leader’s tone, said, “The land of the Nine Nethers is covered in dust, and the Righteous Path ignores the facts, refusing to acknowledge the existence of the Nine Nethers. To prove the Nine Nether’s existence, we kill people and send them there, but the Righteous Path brands us as demonic. It’s truly infuriating!”

“In ancient times, the Nine Nethers was as renowned as the Heavenly Court, flourishing together. But now, the Nine Nethers are humiliated and in decline, which is heartbreaking.”

“The foundation of the Nine Nether Sect is far inferior to the ancient Nine Nethers. Reviving the Nine Nethers seems nearly impossible. With the destruction of the Undying Sect, the four great demonic sects have been reduced to three, and our situation has become even more difficult.”

“Even so, we believe that the Nine Nethers exist and that reincarnation is real. Our Nine Nether Sect wants to revive the ancient glory and make the Nine Nethers shine once more. Does your sect have any way to help?”

Lu Yang pondered for a moment and said, “The central continent is the key battleground. Currently, it is occupied by the Great Xia Dynasty and governed by the Five Great Immortal Sects. Our Heavenly Court Sect members have not fully revived, with only five of the nine protectors awakened. Even if you and I join forces, it would be difficult to withstand the attacks from the Five Great Immortal Sects and the Great Xia Dynasty.”

“Therefore, a direct assault is out of the question.”

“I wonder if Sect Leader Bone has studied the rise of the Great Xia Dynasty. After awakening, I wanted to understand what happened over the past three hundred thousand years and delved into history.”

“At the end of the Great Yu Dynasty, the world was in chaos, with countless heroes rising, connecting states and counties. At that time, the ancestors of the Xia Emperor and the Meng family were not outstanding. How did they manage to emerge victorious and become the only two contenders for the emperor’s throne?”

“The reason is that they had the advantages of ‘timing’ and ‘human harmony.’”

“What is timing? The Great Yu Dynasty was unable to govern, and chaos ensued. That was timing!”

“And what is human harmony?”

“Individual strength and the will of the people, that is human harmony!”

“In contrast, the Great Xia Dynasty is at its peak, the strongest it has ever been, showing no signs of weakness.”

“Moreover, the Great Xia Dynasty governs well and has the people’s support, along with the Five Great Immortal Sects acting as their watchdogs, surveying the land. I even suspect that the Great Xia Dynasty has immortals on their side!”

“Without the advantage of timing and human harmony, recklessly stepping forward is the worst choice.”

Petrified Bone said angrily, “Does that mean our Nine Nether Sect will never have its day?”

Lu Yang calmly responded, “Not necessarily. The rise and fall of great powers is a historical rule. While the Great Xia Dynasty appears to be at its zenith, it is actually on the verge of collapse.”

“A great era is approaching, new immortals will emerge, the Southern Demon Territory and the East Sea are eyeing the Great Xia Dynasty, and the powerful beings who slumbered during the Great Qian and Great Yu eras are gradually awakening. As the opportunities for immortality arise, we might see a repeat of the end of the Great Yu era.”

“By then, the Great Xia Dynasty’s advantage in timing will be gone!”

“So, before the chaos arrives, we must remain low-key and avoid blindly proclaiming the existence of the Nine Nethers, which would invite unnecessary trouble. The downfall of the Undying Sect is a precedent!”

“As for human harmony, given the current strength of the Nine Nether Sect, I believe that even with hidden trump cards, it will be difficult to gain an advantage in the great era’s struggle.”

“The Nine Nether Sect has too few strong members. The immediate priority is to focus on cultivation and increase the number of Unity and even Tribulation Crossing Stage cultivators!”

“In this process, the Nine Nether Sect should ally with the Demon Domain and the East Sea externally, and internally with the Heartless Sect and the Solar Sect.”

“When the great era’s struggle arrives, if our two sects act together, and immortal venture succeeds, the Nine Nethers shall rise.”

Petrified Bone was stirred by Lu Yang’s words, feeling a bright future ahead.

Previously, they had been too hasty, eager to build Fengdu and prove the existence of the Nine Nethers. Listening to Lu Yang now, he realized that their previous actions were completely wrong!

Current patience is for future development. It’s ridiculous that I’ve lived so long and haven’t figured out this simple principle?

This is the difference in vision. The Heavenly Court Sect ruled the ancient times, observing the past and present without missing anything. Their opponents were the Four Ancient Immortals, including Ying Tian Immortal, and the Nine Nether Sect was not on the same level as them.

Excited, Petrified Bone did not forget the Sect Leader’s instructions before his departure: “The Sect Leader has one more question for your sect.”

“Please ask.”

“The Sect Leader asked if your sect has any advice on the economic development of the Nine Nether Sect.”

Petrified Bone didn’t understand why the Sect Leader asked this. He felt that the Nine Nether Sect’s economy was doing well. When Sect Leader Qin was in charge, they couldn’t even pay salaries on time. Since the new Sect Leader took over, not only have they been paying salaries on time, but they’ve also funded the construction of Fengdu.

Lu Yang smiled knowingly, “It seems your Sect Leader is quite perceptive.”

“What do you mean?”

“As I mentioned earlier, the most important thing for your sect right now is to focus on cultivation. And what do you need for focused cultivation? A large amount of Spirit Stones!”

“So, before you cultivate, you need to earn Spirit Stones!”

Petrified Bone suddenly understood and felt a bit embarrassed, realizing that the other party understood the Sect Leader better than he did.

“How do we earn Spirit Stones then?”

Lu Yang pointed his finger at the ceiling and smiled, “Sect Leader Bone, what do you think of the business of this barbecue restaurant?”

Petrified Bone thought of the long queues outside the door: “Naturally, it’s very good.”

“What if I said you could open such barbecue restaurants all over the Great Xia Dynasty?”

“What?!”
