Cultivation: Being Immortal - Chapter 225

Qing State

The name Qing State originated from the Green Emperor. In the past, the Green Emperor fought against the demons in Qing State, dealt a heavy blow to the demon coalition, and resolved the crisis for the human race. After that, the Green Emperor stayed in Qing State and actively participated in the front lines of demon suppression.

To commemorate the Green Emperor, the human race named this place Qing State. After many years of fierce battles, the territory of Qing State has become extremely vast, no longer the same as it was in the past.

After the Green Emperor passed away, the rulers of Qing State were the four major families. They also made indelible contributions to the development of the cultivation world in Qing State.

Until even the four major families became arrogant, causing anger, a civil war broke out among cultivators in the Qing State. The war ended with the victory of the four major families, but other forces were not defeated, and revenge against the four major families continued.

At that time, the leaders of the four major families, after deliberation, realized that they could not always maintain their humble family traditions. Although the four major families were strong at the time, no family could remain prosperous forever. If they continued to provoke conflicts with other forces generation after generation, the four major families would eventually perish.

Therefore, the bravest members of the four major families made a painful sacrifice. They abandoned most of their territory and ordinary members, and went into hiding with the main bloodline and elite members of the family. From then on, they disappeared from the public eye.

Without the four major families, other forces in the Qing State began to rise one after another. Over the years, the power dynamics in the Qing State kept changing. Some small sects flourished, while some large sects declined.

Today, the Qing State still has four top sects: Tiandao Gate, Infinite Palace, Taixu Sect, and Tiandao Pavilion. These four sects have a long history, with each having existed for over tens of thousands of years. They are now all led by peak-level ancestors and are the top forces in the Qing State.

In addition, the Qing State also has over a dozen medium-sized forces. Some of them have Ancestors at the Soul Changing stage, while others have numerous Nascent Soul cultivators. There are also many talented newcomers. The cultivator community in the entire Qing State is thriving and flourishing.

Qing State，Tiandao Gate

Void Achieving Ancestor Chen Kaifeng is currently in seclusion, dedicating himself to cultivation. He has reached the peak of the Void Achieving stage for many years and closed himself off fifty years ago. He made a firm decision that he would not come out of seclusion until he breaks through to the Tao Achieving stage.

For this, Chen Kaifeng called two junior disciples to protect him, accomplishing everything with this move.

“Plop”

On this day, Chen Kaifeng suddenly spit out a mouthful of blood. He looked ahead in shock as the formation of his cave had been broken.

“Junior disciple, you…”

Chen Kaifeng saw that the person who had come was his junior disciple, Wang Xuwen, and he appeared extremely surprised.

“Senior brother, did you fail in your breakthrough?”

“Why did you attack your senior brother? My breakthrough shouldn’t have any negative impact on you.”

Chen Kaifeng quickly calmed down and said to Wang Xuwen. He couldn’t understand why Wang Xuwen would attack him. They had been senior and junior disciples for over a thousand years, and his breakthrough in Tao Achieving would only benefit Wang Xuwen and bring the Tiandao Gate to a higher level.

Chen Kaifeng secretly mobilized his spiritual power, preparing to stabilize his injuries. However, this movement made his already pale face as if it had been brushed with a layer of white putty. His spiritual power had completely disappeared.

“Senior brother, how does the taste of the Absolute Spirit Powder feel?”

“Why?”

Chen Kaifeng couldn’t hold it any longer and roared at Wang Xuwen.

“Because my last name is not Wang, it’s Lin.”

“What?”

“Senior brother, think about it. What kind of people are the Lins from Qing State?”

“One of the four major clans, the Lin family?”

“Yes, I’m a descendant of the Lin family, one of the four major clans. Senior brother, our Lin family is currently suffering and having a tough time. We need the help of the Tiandao Gate. As for you, if you’re alive, the Tiandao Gate won’t listen to me. That’s why I can only ask you to accompany our master.”

“You…”

“I have finished talking, and now you can understand clearly, our brotherhood was not in vain.”

Wang Xuwen looked cold and indifferent, after speaking, a bright light rushed towards Chen Kaifeng.

At this moment, a red light burst from Chen Kaifeng’s forehead, instantly breaking through Wang Xuwen’s light. Then he rushed out of the cave, but as soon as he did, a huge suction force appeared, taking away the red light and pulling it into a gourd.

“Hu Xia, have you also betrayed?”

From the gourd came Chen Kaifeng’s voice of despair, at this moment Wang Xuwen walked out of the cave.

“Xuwen, is everything ready inside?”

“Everything is ready, what about you?”

“In at most a month, we can completely refine Chen Kaifeng’s soul. By then, we can claim that he failed to break through, and no one will find out.”

“Good, after a month of preparation, we can wipe out the lineage of Chen Kaifeng. Tiandao Gate will truly be in our hands.”

Wang Xuwen nodded his head. The three great Void Achievers of Tiandao Gate, with Chen Kaifeng dead, who can still oppose them?

“Let me go, you two traitors…”

Chen Kaifeng was still screaming, but the two of them couldn’t be bothered to reply. Hu Xia sealed his mouth shut and no more sounds came out.

·······

In the wilderness, many monsters were running for their lives. The powerful waves of spiritual energy made them feel like the sky was falling. They all left their territories and fled deep into the wilderness.

The source of the spiritual energy waves was the Void Achieving Ancestor of Tiandao Pavilion, who was being attacked by three people. All three were Void Achieving Ancestors, but the strength of the Tiandao Pavilion Patriarch was extremely powerful. Although he was on the losing side, he was not captured. Instead, he kept on attacking, trying to break free.

“Who are you all? Why did you ambush me?”

The Tiandao Pavilion Patriarch roared in anger and sorrow. He was famous in the Qing State and had many friends. He hadn’t made any new acquaintances for hundreds of years, so why was he suddenly attacked today? He didn’t even know who these people were.

Even if he had to die, he wanted to die with an understanding.

“The skilled monsters are coming quickly, and I feel a lot of pressure here.”

The three people didn’t answer, but soon they heard the voice of their comrades in their ears. This place is located deep in the Wilderness and belongs to the territory of the monsters. With such a big movement, the monsters will definitely send skilled fighters to investigate.

After the three people looked at each other, suddenly their dharma bodies underwent a huge transformation. Two heads grew on their shoulders, and their arms turned into six.

“With three heads and six arms, you must be from the four major families.”

The old ancestor of the Tiandao Pavilion exclaimed in fear, but the three people remained silent and intensified their attacks.

The old ancestor of the Tiandao Pavilion could no longer hold on this time. His dharma body was quickly shattered. He gritted his teeth and abandoned his physical body, merging his soul into the Nascent Soul, and quickly fled.

The three people chased after him, and soon a person appeared ahead. The old ancestor of the Tiandao Pavilion was overjoyed and hurriedly said. Junior brother, help me hold them back. The four major families have emerged and ambushed me.

“Senior brother, don’t worry, quickly enter the formation. Junior brother will ensure your safety.”

The person casually sprinkled several formation plates, and a large formation formed instantly. The old ancestor of the Tiandao Pavilion didn’t think too much and rushed into the formation.

Three people appeared outside the formation, each standing in a different position, surrounding the formation. One of them said. Begin.

As soon as the words were spoken, Tiandao Pavilion’s Patriarch didn’t see the three people move, but saw a sword light slashing towards him. In the shocked look on Tiandao Pavilion’s Patriarch’s face, the Nascent Soul was instantly shattered, and his remaining soul escaped but was also caught by a powerful spiritual force.

“Junior brother, why is this happening, why?”

Tiandao Pavilion’s Patriarch roared in grief and anger. Until now, he couldn’t understand why his own junior brother wanted to kill him.

“My surname is Yu, my ancestral name is Yu Cheng. Senior brother, do you know the reason?”

“You, you…”

“Senior brother should be able to die without regrets now.”

The person nodded, then waved their hand, directly annihilating Tiandao Pavilion’s Patriarch’s spiritual soul.

The formation was dismissed, and the four people met. One of them said. Brother Yu, has Tiandao Pavilion been taken care of?

“Everything in the sect has been resolved, but there are still many people outside who need some more time.”

“That’s fine, a few remaining enemies are not a concern. We need to quickly take control of Tiandao Pavilion and recruit a large number of Yu family descendants within three years.”

“No problem, we have more than enough time for three years.”

The person nodded. The high-ranking members of his senior brother’s sect had already been cleared out, leaving only low-level disciples who couldn’t cause any trouble.

“Alright, let’s go. We’re heading to Taixu Sect, which is a tricky place. Let’s make sure we don’t make any mistakes.”

The three nodded and quickly left. Among several major sects, Taixu Sect had the strongest power but the fewest manpower. They needed to provide support.
