Pay to Cultivate Immortality? My Sect is Completely Free - Chapter 269

Chapter 269: One Year’s Time to Unite the Four Grand Xuan Prefectures!

Northern Xuan Prefecture, Northern Darkness Sect.

Su Bai smiled faintly and withdrew the arm he had stretched out behind him.

That finger strike was, of course, launched using his Invincible Domain!

And the result left him very satisfied!

A snap of the finger blocked out the sky, shattering the firmament!

With the foundation of the “Supreme Being,” the Heavenly Venerables of the Heavenly Palace would likely remain quiet for a while!

If even an Invincible Heavenly Venerable couldn’t withstand a single finger strike, who would dare be the first to make a move?

“For the time being, the Heavenly Palace won’t take any action. You all should go help liberate the entirety of Northern Xuan Prefecture,” Su Bai said calmly as he looked down at Zhuge Feng and the other disciples.”Yes, Master (Sect Master)!”

Zhuge Feng and the others answered respectfully, then dispersed as if organized by groups of a hundred.

Su Bai took action and destroyed the Northern Darkness Sect’s teleportation formation.

With this, all connections between Northern Xuan Prefecture and the Heavenly Palace were completely severed!

The same operation was carried out for the other three Grand Xuan Prefectures—Eastern Xuan, Western Xuan, and Southern Xuan.

All communications between the Four Grand Xuan Prefectures and the Heavenly Palace were cut off!

Unless a Heavenly Venerable personally intervened to open a new channel.

But knowing that the Heavenly Dao Sect still harbored a “Supreme Being” along with at least three Heavenly Venerables,

which one of them would dare be the first to take the risk?

………….Realm Beyond the Heavens—the Heavenly Palace’s headquarters beyond the heavens.

“Fellow Daoists, what should we do now?”

“Should we launch the decisive battle against the Heavenly Dao Sect immediately?”

At this moment, a group of Heavenly Venerables gathered in the Heavenly Palace, discussing the specifics.

“That’s not wise. Several of our great ones have already left the palace to visit the major Heavenly Venerable powers and secretive factions, trying to coerce and win over more powerful allies.”

“If we act recklessly now, we might throw everything off balance!”

“Exactly. Su Bai, Nameless, and the Wine Sword Immortal are manageable; we only need to dispatch three Invincible Heavenly Venerables to hold them off. But what about that mysterious Supreme Being??”

“Our palace does have Supreme Beings, but if they break their seals and ascend back to the Supreme Realm, we won’t be able to suppress them at all. They’d have no choice but to ascend and depart!”

“One hundred years after the Peerless Heavenly Venerable ascended, a Supreme Being elder of our palace also chose to ascend. Before the Ascension Passage closed, he left behind a blood-stained piece of cloth.”

“I remember it vividly. On that cloth were three large characters written!””Do not ascend! Do not ascend! Do not ascend!”

“Exactly, the Immortal Cauldron is not yet complete. Ascending now is far from the right time!”

“Wait a little longer. Once the Immortal Cauldron has refined the entire continent and fused into the Supreme Immortal Artifact, then the Heavenly Dao Sect, the Supreme Being—none of them will be more than a finger snap away from destruction!”

Several Heavenly Venerables spoke in succession.

Though unwilling, they knew they couldn’t rush things now.

“Fine, then let them go for the time being!!!”

“Once the Immortal Cauldron is forged, nothing will be up to their control anymore!!!”

“The Supreme Immortal Cauldron is the very foundation of our Heavenly Palace’s standing in the Immortal Realm!”

“Our Heavenly Palace is the true ruler of the Great World and the sole master over billions of living beings!”……………..

Just as Su Bai had predicted, the Heavenly Palace did not make another move for the rest of the time.

Of course, even so, Su Bai, Nameless, and the Wine Sword Immortal remained stationed in the Three Grand Xuan Prefectures, ready to prevent any unexpected events.

Meanwhile, the disciples of the Heavenly Dao Sect swept across all Four Grand Xuan Prefectures, wiping out every bandit, rescuing the people, and helping the displaced find new homes…

Su Bai distributed a large number of Demon-Revealing Mirrors, which were redeemed from the System Shop and could accurately detect the hidden evildoers lurking among the common folk!

The disciples of the Heavenly Dao Sect neither took a single thing from the citizens nor harmed a single innocent person, but they spared no wicked individual…

Even more importantly, as long as one believed in the Heavenly Dao Sect, the suppressive pressure that the Five Cauldrons exerted over the Continent would gradually dissipate!

Because of this, the reputation of the Heavenly Dao Sect grew louder and louder. The people of the Four Grand Xuan Prefectures, who had once feared the sect’s disciples, now looked upon them with reverence…

Welcome the Heavenly Dao Sect!!

A warm and enthusiastic welcome!!With such efficiency, the Four Grand Xuan Prefectures—spanning billions of miles and home to hundreds of millions—quickly returned to their former peace!

……………….

One year later, at the Heavenly Dao Sect.

Su Bai looked over his Invincible Domain, a smile appearing on his face.

After a year of tireless effort by the sect’s millions of disciples, the entire Four Grand Xuan Prefectures had finally been brought under the Heavenly Dao Sect’s territory!

The hundreds of millions living in those prefectures could finally stand tall once more, no longer suppressed by the overwhelming pressure of the Five Cauldrons weighing down the Continent!

Not only that, but in the past year, the development of the Heavenly Dao Sect had surged dramatically—its number of disciples had doubled!

From the previous 3.6 million to now 7.2 million!

At the same time, the strength of the Heavenly Dao Sect’s disciples had skyrocketed!

The number of disciples at the Golden Core Realm had surpassed 200,000!Nascent Soul Realm disciples had also exceeded ten thousand!

Almost all of Su Bai’s personal disciples had reached the Perfected Nascent Soul stage.

Even more importantly, two disciples had stepped into the Divine Transformation Realm!

Zhuge Feng: Second Layer of Divine Transformation!!

Han Feiyu: First Layer of Divine Transformation!!

Meanwhile, Su Bai’s own strength had taken a tremendous leap forward thanks to the tenfold amplification!

Unity Stage… Great Perfection!

“The sect upgrade mission requires territory range covering the Five Major Regions, and three Heavenly Venerable forces willing to submit…”

Su Bai murmured softly, his gaze fixed toward the direction of the Four Grand Xuan Domains.

Many factions had long allied themselves with the Heavenly Dao Sect, and after it revealed its “Supreme Being” heritage a year ago, even more forces came under its banner.

However, not a single Heavenly Venerable-level faction had joined.

Instead, rumors kept emerging about Heavenly Venerable factions pledging allegiance to the Heavenly Palace.

Whether this was voluntary or the result of coercion was unclear.

“It seems it’s time to take the initiative and strike…”

Su Bai smiled. At the same time, in the Great Hall of the Heavenly Dao Sect, the Wine Sword Immortal slowly stepped forward.

“Wow!”

With a graceful motion, the Wine Sword Immortal transformed into a man standing atop fiery lotuses, like a sovereign enthroned in flames, radiating awe throughout All Under Heaven.

And thanks to Su Bai’s greatly enhanced strength, the power of his Second True Form had undergone a qualitative leap as well!

If before it was merely dominating the Heavenly Venerable!

Now, the moment has come to…

Strike down the Invincible Heavenly Venerable!!

“My True Self!”

“003, Rock Emperor (Flame Emperor!)”
