Chapter 856 - 882: Cultivating a Taotie into a Saint?
Sword Dao River.
Zisu’s soul returned, and he became a Saint on the spot, with terrifying Saintly Majesty enveloping everything.
Fortunately, Ye Luo reacted quickly and firmly suppressed Zisu’s Saintly Majesty; otherwise, more people would have suffered.
On the Sect Master’s Great Hall Plaza of Hidden Heaven Island.
At this moment, many Disciples of the Wayless Sect gathered here.
They looked towards the direction of Zisu’s chamber.
“Is this what a Saint is like? Such a powerful feeling.”
“Do you guys feel that Tenth Junior Sister’s Saintly Majesty is even more fearsome than Third Senior Brother’s?”
“Hmm, it feels like the might of First Senior Brother becoming a Saint is also hardly less magnificent.”
The disciples of the Wayless Sect were discussing amongst themselves.
Ye Luo, however, seemed aloof to these conversations.
On the other hand, Su Qianyuan was so infuriated he could hardly stand it. What did it mean that her Saintly Majesty was more terrifying than his?
But Su Qianyuan wasn’t in a position to complain about it.
Indeed.
Zisu’s Saintly Majesty was truly more formidable than when he became a Saint.
“Third Brother, don’t mind it. Tenth Junior Sister indeed has superior talents compared to you and me. Her journey has always been quite extraordinary.”
Ye Luo patted Su Qianyuan on the shoulder, telling him to take no offense.
“Is it just because of the journey that led to such a big difference?”
Su Qianyuan scratched his head.
“Not entirely. It seems Tenth Junior Sister may have received some extremely terrifying inheritances, which is one of the reasons why her Saint Ascension was so dreadful.”
Ye Luo saw right through it.
He understood it very clearly.
Zisu possessed a very powerful inheritance.
It was precisely because of this inheritance that Zisu’s Saintly aura was so potent.
“Why don’t I have such an inheritance.”
Su Qianyuan muttered.
“You should be content. Aren’t the opportunities you’ve had plentiful enough?”
Ye Luo had no strength left to ridicule him.
Others might not notice it.
But this Third Brother too was endowed with numerous opportunities.
Otherwise, it wouldn’t have been possible for him to become a Saint so effortlessly.
When it comes down to it, he was actually the one with the least opportunities.
He built everything himself through his innate talent.
Among the disciples of the Wayless Sect, he was the most unfortunate.
No, that’s not right.
He wasn’t the most unfortunate.
The most unfortunate should be Zhang Lao Er. That guy is the true epitome of misfortune.
With neither opportunities nor talent.
Ye Luo wondered how Zhang Lao Er was doing now.
He should really go check on him sometime soon.
“Right, right.”
Su Qianyuan remembered the wills within him and couldn’t help but grin sheepishly.
“All right, all right, Zisu should have completed her breakthrough by now. Let’s go and have a look.”
Ye Luo waved his hand, ready to lead the various disciples over to congratulate Zisu on becoming a Saint.
The other disciples naturally wouldn’t refuse; they nodded in agreement, ready to follow Ye Luo to offer their congratulations to Zisu.
They hadn’t walked more than a few steps when suddenly, a figure appeared ahead, blocking their way.
It was Chu Yuan, who had just returned.
“Respected Master!”
Upon seeing Chu Yuan, the disciples of the Wayless Sect were startled, then they all bowed in salute.
“No need for formalities, rise.”
Chu Yuan gestured lightly, seemingly unconcerned.
“We shall follow the Respected Master’s command!”
All the disciples stood up.
“Where is Zisu? Hasn’t she completed her breakthrough yet? Luo Er, go call Zisu over.”
Chu Yuan scanned the circle of disciples present and then spoke in a calm voice.
“Yes, Respected Master.”
Ye Luo accepted the order and left.
Chu Yuan then fell silent, standing there, pondering in his heart.
Upon his return, he immediately planned to gather all disciples, ready to carry out some ideological work on them.
After becoming saints, they should not just scurry off to Extreme Desolation to face the Saint Ascension Tribulation. They should first inform him, and there’s no harm in going to undergo the tribulation after that.
To just break through and head straight for the tribulation.
If he really failed to react in time, that would be a serious problem.
These dozen disciples, each one was the apple of his eye.
Losing anyone of them would cause him extreme heartache.
Therefore, he needed to carry out some ideological work on his disciples.
Making sure that these disciples would be more prudent.
…
At the same time.
Elsewhere.
In the Immortal Realm, within Tiantu.
The Celestial Dao of the Immortal Realm frowned as he looked towards the Sea of Nihility, his brows furrowing tightly.
Of course, he sensed it.
Chu Yuan had gone with his body but not his mind.
His spirit seemed to have gone who knows where.
This tempted him to wonder whether he should take advantage of Chu Yuan’s absent spirit to attack him and forcibly seize power.
But after some thought, he refrained.
If Chu Yuan were to come back to his senses, it would lead to another great battle, with the Immortal Realm’s very essence bearing the injuries.
Currently, Chu Yuan controls half of the Immortal Realm.
If a battle were to break out, the Immortal Realm would surely shatter.
The losses of such an action would be too great.
It’s better to stick with a more secure course.
Cultivate saints, compete for fate, suppress Chu Yuan.
“Azure Sky.”
The Celestial Dao of the Immortal Realm uttered softly.
His voice spread throughout the Immortal Realm.
Shortly afterward, a flash of golden light flickered.
In the next moment, the figure of the Saint of Azure Sky appeared before the Celestial Dao of the Immortal Realm.
“Greetings, Your Excellency.”
The Saint of Azure Sky bowed respectfully.
“Those five exceptional talents, how is their cultivation going now?”
The Celestial Dao of the Immortal Realm asked while looking up.
“Your Excellency, among those five talents, the one named Zhang Han can now compete with Immortal Emperors, whilst the other three, including Shi Shuo, can now challenge Immortal Kings. The one called Taotie is particularly formidable, already able to contend with Semi-Saints.”
The Saint of Azure Sky responded promptly.
Hearing this.
The Celestial Dao of the Immortal Realm nodded slightly.
Signaling that he was fully aware.
He pondered for a moment, then slowly spoke.
“What do you think of Taotie?”
The Celestial Dao of the Immortal Realm inquired.
“Your Excellency, among these five individuals, Taotie seems to possess the most formidable talent. It’s as if he can devour anything and transform it into his own cultivation, which is quite terrifying. Of the heavenly treasures you have given them, Taotie has devoured at least half.”
The Saint of Azure Sky replied truthfully.
“Mm, not bad, Taotie is indeed the one with the most outstanding talent among these five.”
The Celestial Dao of the Immortal Realm acknowledged.
He even felt that he had underestimated Taotie’s talent.
This youngster, in such a short time, could already match Semi-Saints in might, truly remarkable.
It’s likely that Taotie would be the first under his command to become a saint.
That’s good as well. Taotie’s swift ascension to sainthood would allow him to seize fate faster and hasten Chu Yuan’s exit from the game.
“Azure Sky, provide another batch of cultivation resources, solely for Taotie’s use. I want to see where his talent’s limit lies. If appropriate, perhaps he could be nurtured into a true Saint.”
The Celestial Dao of the Immortal Realm thought it over and then slowly spoke.
“To, to cultivate a true Saint… Yes, I will obey Your Excellency’s command!”
The Saint of Azure Sky agreed with a nod.
Yet, astonishment was still evident in his eyes.
The Celestial Dao of the Immortal Realm actually wanted to cultivate Taotie into a true Saint?
The Saint of Azure Sky knew very well the difference between a true Saint and a saint like him.
Even he, at present, was not a true Saint but rather a Semi-Saint, who could only be considered a saint by virtue of the Heavenly Dao’s support.
Unexpectedly, the Celestial Dao of the Immortal Realm intended to raise Taotie to sainthood.
The Saint of Azure Sky felt… jealous.
