Floating Immortal Order - Chapter 268: Rely on This to Become a Clone Avatar Stage Greater Lord!

The Spirit Race naturally differed from ordinary races in that every being of the Spirit Race had a Daoist name. Such Daoist names naturally became their titles.

The “Daoist Brother” term of address that Shao Huangnan used just now wasn’t to be thrown around lightly. It was reserved for those of similar strength who recognized and acknowledged one another. Calling someone “Daoist Brother” without meeting these criteria was simply inviting ridicule upon oneself.

As the two colossal celestial turtles approached one another, Xu Disheng rose from his carriage and acknowledged with a nod, “Not at all. This area is only filled with small-scale forces. It’s seriously boring, so I’ve delegated the task to others.”

Shao Huangnian’s eyes sparkled, “Daoist Brother, have you seen the Daoist Rankings? Ethereal Spirit Master, Hall Master Yun Dianzhu, who’s in first place, single-handedly annihilated a large force!”

Xu Disheng remarked, “Hall Master Yun’s strength is truly shocking, to be capable of slaying Primordial Spirit Lords. He can be first place… for now.”

“Right, only for now!” Shao Huangnian’s aura was deep and profound. He fixed his gaze on Xu Disheng, and continued, “Hall Master Yun has lived longer than us, so he has had longer to deepen his cultivation base. But we are not weaker than him! I sought you out for this very reason, Daoist Brother. Would you join me in cleansing a large force, to slay a Primordial Lord?!”

“Why not?” Xu Disheng, seeing Shao Huangnian’s spirit brimming with desire to battle, he did not shy back, but instead agreed in a straightforward manner. “Hearing your conviction, do you already have a target in mind, Daoist Brother?”

Shao Huangnian nodded and explained, “Daoist Brother, you indeed possess unparalleled courage! You definitely don’t disappoint. The Profound Sky Sword Sect, a recently-advanced large sect 8,000 km from here, houses only one Primordial Spirit Lord by the name of Qi Taiqing. The Dawndusk Daoist Alliance’s Primordial Spirit stage Administration Hall hasn’t assimilated it yet. This is our best chance to put our names on the Daoist Rankings!”

However, a peak Divine Core stage Spirit Master behind him seemed to be deliberating. He stepped forward and said, “Passing Epoch Spirit Master, the Dawndusk Daoist Alliance’s orders were to meticulously purge every force without exception. If we bypass these minor forces to directly confront the Profound Sky Sword Sect, aren’t we usurping the duties of the Primordial Spirit stage Administration Hall and potentially overstepping our bounds?”

Shao Huangnian frowned slightly, noticing Xu Disheng and his side’s amused looks from the other celestial turtle. His expression darkened, and an overwhelmingly powerful golden sword formed from the Dawndusk Spiritual Essence appeared, swiftly severing that peak Divine Core stage cultivator’s arm!

“You lack discipline! What place do you have, butting in when two Supervising Spirit Masters are conversing?”

Bringing up such a point in Xu Disheng’s presence made Shao Huangnian feel as though he had lost face. It seemed to suggest that he had difficulty managing his subordinates. Thus, he showed no mercy, immediately unleashing a sword strike to punish this peak Divine Core stage Spirit Master.

Naturally, there were people eager to flatter among them. A Divine Core stage Spirit Master from a medium-sized force that had long since submitted jumped out and pointed at the injured party. “Disrespectful fool! How could the Dawndusk Daoist Alliance harbor someone as ignorant as you! The two Supervising Spirit Masters are both unparalleled geniuses. The Alliance’s rules might bind us, but not the Supervising Spirit Masters! In my opinion, it wouldn’t be unjust for you to be put to death!” he berated loudly.

Many joined in the scorn, leaving the Divine Core stage Spirit Master who lost an arm utterly humiliated, stripping him of any dignity befitting his cultivation base.

Even the Dao Foundation stage cultivators looked at the injured Spirit Master with derision and mockery.

The man bowed his head, silently enduring the ridicule without retorting. His face was obscured in shadows, his expression indiscernible.

Even Yan Jin by Xu Disheng’s side showed a scornful and disdainful look towards the injured man.

Xu Disheng, seeing bursts of light in the distance, turned to Shao Huangnian, “Daoist Brother, after my subordinates return from cleansing the small-scale forces within these 3000 km, we shall head straight there. What do you think?”

Shao Huangnian nodded lightly and responded, “That person was utterly foolish. I apologize for putting on such a humiliating display, Daoist Brother.”

“It’s nothing,” Xu Disheng replied nonchalantly, then looked towards the horizon. A stream of light swiftly approached, stopping before him. It let out a vibrant drone as it trembled in place.

This stream of light was a communication method unique to the Spirit Race!

This light could only be sensed by members of the Spirit Race with Spiritual Force, making it extremely covert. Aside from Clone Avatar stage Greater Lords, who could sense it if they were intentionally looking for it, it would remain undetected.

Upon retrieving the light, its content was as Xu Disheng had predicted. It was about the Yin-Yang Daoist Sect and that robed woman, Alighting Moon Primordial Lord.

Spirit Race beings were exceedingly rare. Although he had yet to meet any high-ranking members of the Spirit Race, a prodigy like Xu Disheng had already garnered unequaled attention and regard.

Thousands of years ago, a Primordial Lord of the Spirit Race with good prospects of reaching the Divine Sea stage fell deeply in love with a woman from the Yin-Yang Daoist Sect. They became cultivation partners, but he ultimately ended up as the nourishment for her breakthrough to the Clone Avatar stage.

Yet, this was entirely voluntary. Even with how immensely powerful the Profound Depth Spiritual World, there was no justifiable reason for them to confront the equally formidable Yin-Yang Daoist Sect.

Now, with chaos erupting in the Central Region, Alighting Moon Primordial Lord and the Yin-Yang Daoist Sect behind her represented a tremendous opportunity given to Xu Disheng by the higher ups of the Spirit Race!

However, although the key to this opportunity was provided by the Profound Depth Spiritual World, seizing this astonishing chance still required Xu Disheng’s own effort and initiative.

This plan had been laid out for a long time, but they had always been waiting for the birth of a suitable Spirit Race being. Although Li Xuanji was born before Xu Disheng and had awakened the memories of his true spirit early, he lacked the talent to seize this incredible opportunity. The initial stages of this opportunity needed to be grasped before the formation of the primordial spirit. Thus, from the moment of Xu Disheng’s birth, he was highly valued by the Spirit Race of the Profound Depth Spiritual World!

The Psychic Magic Treasures that Li Xuanji passed to him had not been casually crafted by Profound Insight Greater Lord. All of them were top-tier defensive and offensive treasures specifically made for Xu Disheng,

Having sensed a faint Spirit Race aura from that jade hairpin, Xu Disheng already had some guesses. This stream of light now fully confirmed his thoughts. Remembering Alighting Moon Primordial Lord’s stunning smile, Xu Disheng chuckled softly and muttered to himself, “If this plan succeeds within five hundred years, with a whole powerful force to nourish me, I could rely on this to break through to the Clone Avatar stage.”
