Chapter 601: Chapter 403: Immortal Sect Disciple, the Deal with the Peacock (Part 2)
[This Peacock Royal Family member spoke to you at length and eventually reached an agreement with you. She is willing to be temporarily commanded by you and will tell you everything related to the Five Elements inheritance. In exchange, you must take her to the True Immortal Grotto Heaven and ultimately set her free.]
[This peacock seems to have secrets, but it’s a pity. You possess the Five Spirits Immortal Venerable’s inheritance, giving you a certain confidence to completely conquer her.]
The Five Spirits Immortal Venerable, who is the former owner of the Five Elements Qiankun Gourd.
This is the third Pocket World encountered after entering the trial. Zhong Heng didn’t expect a Peacock Race to exist in this Pocket World.
Originally, the Demon Realm had already dissipated, and there were very few members of the Demon Race in the Jiuzhou Cultivation Realm.
This Pocket World contains a complete Demon Race lineage.
Most of them are Demon Birds who have achieved enlightenment, and many carry the Peacock Bloodline within them.
However, the vast majority have extremely sparse bloodlines.
Only the Peacock Royal Family members have at least half a drop of True Blood in their bloodline purity.
Half a drop is quite a high purity, and having a complete drop of True Blood would be considered a True Blood Pride among the demon race.
Within the Peacock Royal Family, those with True Blood can be counted on one hand.
Having half a drop of True Blood makes it highly probable to complete it in the future; if so, one would have the potential for Divinity Transformation.
Venerable Azure Dragon possessed an Azure Dragon True Blood by great fortune, and if he could obtain the cultivation techniques of the Azure Dragon Clan, Divinity Transformation would have been effortless, but unfortunately, he fell midway.
The peacock Zhong Heng subdued is called Kong Ling.
Due to the special nature of the Peacock Race, male peacocks can better exert the power of their bloodline. It is not that female peacocks are necessarily inferior to males, but utilizing the Five Elements Divine Light is more challenging for them.
Kong Ling is a female peacock, which is why the Peacock Race allows her to leave the Secret Realm to form a relationship with a descendant of the Five Elements True Immortal.
Alternatively, the Peacock Race is aware of Kong Ling’s plan.
However, Zhong Heng has the Immortal Level Beast Taming Technique.
[You have completed the Five Elements Three Refinements, officially becoming a Registered Disciple of the Five Elements True Immortal and a Direct Disciple of the Immortal Sect.]
[You now have the qualification to go to the True Immortal Grotto Heaven.]
"True Immortal Grotto Heaven..."
Zhong Heng felt the world around him.
This Pocket World has already been refined by a True Immortal.
But this refinement is completely different from Immortal Venerable Huihuang’s refinement.
The Immortal’s refinement of a Pocket World is akin to harmonizing with the Great Dao, replacing the Heavenly Dao of the Pocket World and thus perceiving the Great Dao of the universe.
This replacement is unilateral, even if the Pocket World explodes the next second, the Immortal would not be affected.
Generally speaking, after becoming a True Immortal, Immortals will refine a Pocket World.
And the Pocket World will orbit Jiuzhou like satellites around a planet.
These Immortals can have a place to serve as a Cave Mansion and continue to perceive the Dao of Heaven and Earth.
Perhaps after an Immortal falls, the Pocket World will still shine with new brilliance.
The Pocket Worlds of fallen Immortals will still be attracted by Jiuzhou.
Most Immortals in Jiuzhou do not choose a Pocket World refined by other cultivators for refinement. frёewebηovel.cѳm
Rather, they will search for new Pocket Worlds from the distant Endless Void.
Although Immortals theoretically have unlimited lifespans, they still eventually fall.
The Pocket Worlds of the fallen then become the Lower Realms of Jiuzhou.
Inhabitants within these Pocket Worlds who reach a certain level in cultivation will be drawn by Jiuzhou, experience trials like Thunder Tribulation, and ascend.
Gradually, the Lower Realms attached to Jiuzhou have become more numerous.
Among them, Pocket Worlds are actually in the minority.
Some Immortals use Blessed Lands for practice, or Divinity Transformation individuals refine large Secret Realms, seeking opportunities to ascend to Immortality.
Therefore, there are many varying grades of Lower Realms around Jiuzhou, mostly Pocket Worlds, Blessed Lands, and large Secret Realms, distributed like a pyramid in quantity.
They are attached to Jiuzhou but maintain a certain distance.
This is different from the ownerless Pocket Worlds and Blessed Lands directly attached to Jiuzhou, where Jiuzhou’s experts can establish Transmission Arrays.
And now, the mergeable Secret Realms after Jiuzhou’s fragmentation present a third situation.
Returning to the topic, this technique of harmonizing with the Great Dao for perception is widely spread; one Immortal can refine only one Pocket World.
Someone like Immortal Venerable Huihuang, who drags a star cluster in the void, is unique.
Because of this, Zhong Heng wants to obtain the Immortal Venerable’s inheritance and is very eager for that Five Elements Grotto Heaven, but unfortunately...
[This Pocket World is called Five Clouds Grotto Heaven.]
[Countless living beings inhabit this Pocket World, and all practice the Path of the Five Elements without exception.]
[This can enhance the Five Elements True Immortal’s further perception of the Path of the Five Elements through already harmonizing with its Heavenly Dao.]
[In this Pocket World, the Five Elements Sect is the only sect.]
[The so-called Five Elements Trial is essentially collecting promising candidates in the Five Elements Dao from all over Jiuzhou to become Core Disciples of the Five Elements Sect.]
[The trial is somewhat different from the legend, so you asked a few more questions.]
"Senior Brother, from today onwards, you are a True Disciple of the Five Elements Sect." ƒrēewebnovel.com
"But with Senior Brother’s cultivation, you could also become an Elder of our sect."
Zhong Heng’s expression remained unchanged, but he was already displeased in his heart.
"According to the legend, the trial was to become a True Immortal Disciple."
"In the Five Elements Sect, everyone is considered a True Immortal Disciple, so why is Senior Brother Zhong dissatisfied?"
"You must know, only three people are chosen for each True Inheritance selection, even those who reach Nascent Soul without meeting the qualifications can only become Elders of the Five Elements Sect, not True Disciples."
"And True Disciples can also meet the True Immortal in person and receive his guidance face-to-face."
