The morning sun falls on the earth, but the sun is not the vibrant scene it should be. Under the sunlight was a scene of depression and decay.
A ragged Taoist nun, her hair a bit dishevelled, stood dumbfounded in a puddle of ruins.
Her chest was covered in blood, and the blood from her still unhealed wounds made it impossible to see the colour of her clothes and skin together. Her bare feet were also dripping with blood, which mixed with the dirt and turned brown. The Buddha’s dust that had been stuck in her back was no longer half a feathered thread at the moment. In her hand she held a tattered stone tablet, and when she looked vaguely at it, she could still see the incomplete word ‘Pure’ on it.
Her hand trembled a little as she muttered under her breath, “Heavenly Purity Sect, where is the Heavenly Purity Sect left ……”
The purpose of the Heavenly Purity Sect was to guard a realm of purity, to remove all darkness and make heaven and earth as immaculate as itself.
When she was in the cultivation world, she believed that the world was ultimately immaculate, beautiful and clean. As to whether or not the disciples of the Heavenly Purity Sect were needed to guard it, that was not a very important matter. It was because she believed that the Heavenly Purity Sect’s mission of guarding one world was not a complete reflection of the ideals of the Heavenly Purity Sect.
The existence of the Heavenly Purity Sect is a pursuit of beauty and freedom, and this pursuit of beauty and freedom should include the disciples of the Heavenly Purity Sect. She did not take disciples in the cultivation world, one because indeed she had not found any disciples who were qualified to practise the Heavenly Purity Daoist Canon, and the second because she wished to go to the immortal world to present her views to the ancestors of the Heavenly Purity Sect.
That is that the Heavenly Purity Sect should not just be silently and secretly guarded, but use the concept to tell others that only a heart free from impurity can a body be free from impurity. The disciples of the Heavenly Pure Sect should stand out in the open and tell all people to understand fraternity, to be courteous and respectful ……
And now her faith collapsed away all of a sudden, or rather from the moment she entered the immortal world, her faith was collapsing.
What did she see after all these years?
Wreckage, bloodshed, desolation, helplessness, loneliness ……
No people for a thousand miles, no life for ten thousand miles. The immortal world was nothing but bones and ruins.
One day she saw a cultivator and to her surprise she went up to ask about it. What she got in return was almost being killed because the other side needed her essence to cultivate.
What kind of world is this, what kind of despair is this.
Here, everyone kills, here, there is no purity.
The Heavenly Purity Sect, which once had lofty ideals and had come from the cultivation world to the immortal world, was now only half a remnant of a monument.
Her hands were trembling and so was her heart. After her faith began to crumble, she did not want to believe anymore that there was still true immaculateness in this world.
……
Great Immortal Luck City, the name sounded vulgar, but at least ten thousand cultivators were gathered here. The city lord, Gai Jinxuan, was a true true Immortal powerhouse, with his true essence completely transformed into Immortal Essence.
It was said to be an immortal city, but in fact it was no more than an average castle. Looking at the mountain-like shape from the outside, where was the aura of an immortal city?
But in an immortal world where no one had been seen for miles, such a mountain castle was a place that almost everyone wanted to enter.
There were only a few who could get in, unless you could come up with a billion spirit stones. As for immortal crystals, many entering cultivators had never seen one until they died of old age in the Immortal Realm.
The City Lord’s Mansion of Grand Fortune City was, to put it bluntly, actually just a simple large stone house.
At this moment, sitting on the seat of the City Lord’s Mansion was a man whose age could not be seen. The man’s face was long and his eyes were somewhat asymmetrical, one side large and the other small. His brow carried a gloomy and fierce aura that was intimidating to look at.
He was Gai Jinxuan, the City Lord of Great Fortune Immortal City, a true true Immortal powerhouse.
Gai Jinxuan was content with his current life, and when he was unable to cultivate for long periods of time, he liked to sit alone like this in what he at least considered to be a spacious city lord’s mansion, remembering the time when he had just arrived in the Immortal Realm.
At that time, all he saw was a desolate and dilapidated place. Later he relied on the one billion spirit stones and arrived at the Great Immortal Luck City. He was like a dog, pleasing the previous city lord and crawling to wherever that city lord went.
Later on, he finally caught an opportunity to take out that idiot City Lord through underhanded means and obtained a large amount of immortal crystals from him. These immortal crystals allowed him to transform his true essence into immortal essence, and also made him the new city lord of Great Immortal Luck City.
Here, he was the king. Whoever dared to go against his will, all he had to do was to give a look and that person would never see the sun of tomorrow again. In Great Daxian Luck City, any female cultivator he, Gai Jinxuan, took a fancy to would be delivered to his door with joy and excitement.
He enjoyed this kind of life, and he despised those crickets who depended on refining the essence blood of cultivators to survive. Such gnats who were clearly not blood cultivators and still relied on refining the essence blood of cultivators to live would one day turn into idiots with no sanity at all.
“Back to the City Lord, my subordinate has important news to report.” A humble and respectful voice rang out from the entrance of the City Lord’s residence, interrupting Gai Jinxuan’s thoughts as he continued to reminisce about his time.
When Gai Jinxuan heard the voice, he remembered himself from back then. He knew who was at the door, his own scheming master and follow dog, Yang Qianxiu.
At first he was just like Yang Qianxiu, such a respectful and humble man, more humble than a dog in front of the city lord. It was because of this that he seized the opportunity to dry up the former City Lord and climb to the seat of the City Lord. This Yang Qianxiu must have thought the same as he did at the beginning, he should have wanted to finish himself off and then climb up to the City Lord’s seat.
There was a fat cultivator standing at the entrance of the City Lord’s residence, his head almost touching the ground.
He was Yang Qianxiu, Gai Jinxuan’s follower and lackey. A cultivator who lived a humble life in the eyes of others and a graceful life in his own eyes.
After he made his report and did not hear the City Master’s voice calling him in, he did not even move, still standing outside the door with a respectful bend.
A full half-column of time pa*sed before he heard the City Lord’s voice, “Come in.”
Yang Qianxiu eagerly walked to the city lord’s residence, and when he was still a few feet away from the city lord, he flung himself to the ground, “Great joy, city lord, great joy ……”
At the sound of surprise and exaggerated endowment, Yang Qianxiu raised his head, he had such a fat body but a pair of big eyes. This pair of big eyes just gave people a simple look that was easy to befriend. However, Gai Jinxuan knew that this Yang Qianxiu had a bad stomach and was not half as bad as the one he had back then. Many of the things in the Great Immortal Luck City were ideas given to him by this Yang Qianxiu.
It was really because this person used it too well, even if he thought about how he had done it before, he did not want to just replace it.
“Oh, tell me about it.” Gai Jinxuan gave a careless oh.
Yang Qianxiu said excitedly, “I got news from the disciples of the Heavenly Purity Sect, a new disciple of the Heavenly Purity Sect has come to the Immortal World, or a female cultivator ……”
“What?” Gai Jinxuan could not hold back any longer, rushed in front of Yang Qianxiu in one step, reached out and grabbed Yang Qianxiu, asked in an excited tone, “You said that a disciple of the Heavenly Purity Sect has come to the Immortal Realm again? Or a female cultivator?”
Yang Qianxiu was just as excited and said, “Yes, it is true that a disciple of the Heavenly Purity Sect has come to the Immortal Realm. Not long ago there was a loose cultivator who came to join me in Great Daxian Luck City, he said that he had news of a disciple of the Heavenly Purity Sect, I checked his injuries and it was indeed a disciple of the Heavenly Purity Sect who was injured ……”
“Quickly, go and bring that cultivator.” Gai Jinxuan’s voice was trembling with excitement.
Yang Qianxiu immediately sent a message and then said, “I gave him the message and will come over soon.”
Before there was an order from the City Lord, he wouldn’t dare to bring someone to the entrance of the City Lord’s residence, unless he wanted to seek death.
“Good, good, you’ve made a great achievement this time.” Gai Jinxuan rubbed his hands together, his eyes and face, all excited.
If there was anything that was most precious in the Dusk Immortal Realm Era, it was definitely not any Immortal Crystals or Immortal Pills, but the disciples of the Heavenly Purity Sect.
Disciples recruited by the Heavenly Purity Sect had to be Immaculate Spiritual Bodies and then cultivate the Heavenly Purity Daoist Canon. It was precisely for this reason that disciples of the Heavenly Purity Sect were very rare.
Disciples of the Heavenly Purity Sect are the best choice for any cultivator to choose a daoist partner, because once they have formed a daoist couple with a disciple of the Heavenly Purity Sect, they will purify their own spiritual roots and bodies, and their cultivation speed will be several times faster.
In the era of the Dusk Immortal Realm, disciples of the Heavenly Purity Sect had another use that anyone would envy, and that was that after double cultivation, they could allow True Immortals to cross over into the Golden Immortal Realm.
In the era of the Dusk Immortal Realm, a True Immortal was already an existence that no one dared to mess with to dominate, not to mention a Golden Immortal. Unfortunately, because the Immortal Realm was already twilight and Heavenly Fortune had been abandoned, very few people in the Twilight Immortal Realm were able to cross over into the Golden Immortal realm.
Gai Jinxuan, however, knew that there were two Immortal City Lords who were Golden Immortals, and these two Immortal City Lords were able to cross over to the true Golden Immortal realm because they both possessed a disciple of the Heavenly Purification Sect.
If he also obtained a disciple of the Heavenly Purity Sect and crossed into the Golden Immortal realm, then he, the City Lord of the Great Immortal City of Luck, would not only have his life expectancy increased by 100,000 years, but his status would also become unbelievably secure.
