I have Immortality In The Cultivation World

Chapter 437 - 340: The Decline of the Sect

Atop Mysterious Primordial Mountain.

A solitary Daoist temple.

It covered two to three acres, and from afar the pavilions and towers were quite imposing.

Only upon drawing nearer could one see that most of the palaces were desolate, with not even a simple formation set up for concealment. Some of the doors and windows had even been removed, it was unclear whether they had been sold or burned.

Zhou Yi pretended to be surprised and said, "Master, isn’t the Mysterious Primordial Sect one of the top sects in the Continent?"@@@@

"Cough cough cough cough!"

Ling Weizi coughed awkwardly. Having finally found a disciple with top-notch Spirit Root, he had to pass on the lineage and hold on to him. After spinning his eyes, he spoke.

"Do you know of the Heavenly Court?"

"Of course, disciple knows, the abode of Celestial Gods as told in legends, ruling over all beings in heaven and earth. The Mountain God worshipped in our village is a Righteous God from Heavenly Court, which even requires two large fatty pigs every year!"

Before coming to Mysterious Primordial Mountain, Zhou Yi had celebrated more than a decade in the mundane world and had come to understand that Heavenly Court had become the myth in the eyes of the common folk, replacing the messy, disorganized beliefs of the past.

Of course, this had much to do with the Heavenly Court Righteous Gods diligently pursuing heretic deities everywhere.

The once glorious multitude of religions had now dwindled down to a few Evil God sects, which occasionally flickered briefly into existence. Continue your adventure with novelhall.Côm

Evil sacrifices and licentious rituals, one of the ten unforgivable sins in the heavenly laws!

"The Mountain God from the Niu family’s village? You’re talking about Stone Fellow."

Ling Weizi descended from the clouds and as he walked, he said, "You should diligently cultivate. After you’ve reached Foundation Establishment, your master will take you to pay a visit."

Zhou Yi showed an admiring look at the perfect moment, "Master is truly powerful, to actually be acquainted with the Mountain God."

"So that’s how it is."

Zhou Yi made calculations with his fingers and suddenly comprehended the cause and effect, then, with fists waving, he declared, "Disciple will surely cultivate diligently and glorify the Mysterious Primordial Sect!"

"Such a teachable young lad!"

Ling Weizi sighed in relief internally, having temporarily secured the person. Once his own life span was exhausted and the Daoist lineage and Immortal Register were passed on, they would be protected by the laws of the Heavenly Court, and he would no longer be able to switch allegiances.

As the elder and the youngster conversed, they passed through three gates and arrived at the central hall of Mysterious Primordial Sect.

Inside the hall were three Daoists, one fat, one thin, and a young girl. The fat and thin Daoists appeared to be about thirty years old, and the girl was just a child.

"Today, I had a sudden inkling to divine the heavenly secrets, and indeed after coming down the mountain, I found a bright talent and beautiful gem!"

Ling Weizi introduced them, "Stone, these are your three senior disciples, the fat one is Xuan Jing, the thin one Xuan Xu, and the little one’s Daoist name is Xuan Yu."

Zhou Yi quickly bowed and said, "Greetings to senior brothers, senior sister!"

The fat and thin senior brothers looked indifferent, and the look they gave Zhou Yi was even a bit pitying, while Xuan Yu blushed with a shy um.

Seeing this situation, Ling Weizi’s face couldn’t quite maintain composure, and he gave a light cough before saying, "This time it’s not me boasting. Your junior brother’s aptitude is comparable to a Heavenly Spiritual Root, and he is surely destined for Core Formation!"

"Heavenly Spiritual Root?"

The fat senior brother Xuan Jing flashed beside Zhou Yi and after conducting an examination said, "Master, please don’t hinder the boy’s future, with a Heavenly Spiritual Root, he will definitely get into the Immortal Register if he joins the Daoist academy."

Heavenly Court touted equality among all beings, but it wasn’t entirely just.

After all, Spirit Roots are unpredictable, and even the deities of Heavenly Court can’t control them. Only those with Spirit Roots could enter the Daoist academy, eliminating ninety percent of people.

Even among the students in the Daoist academy who possessed Spirit Roots, there were different tiers, and the highest was the Heavenly Spiritual Root. Essentially, unless one was a complete fool, it meant a straight path to the Immortal Register.
