Step by Step Ascend to Immortality

Chapter 99: Chapter 89 The road to the sky

"Shenxiao Sect?"

Liu Suiyun's thinking was even more agile than his imagination. He blurted out, "Elder Yunpeng?"

He had heard the name of Elder Yunpeng countless times. Elder Yunpeng had a friendship with the Pang family for at least two generations. The Pang family didn't know how many rare treasures they had offered to Elder Yunpeng. And this Golden Core cultivator had also become the biggest backer of the Pang family in Tianji.

However, such cooperation was actually just a matter of mutual benefit. During the changes in Tianji, for some unknown reason, perhaps because the price wasn't negotiated properly, Elder Yunpeng didn't participate in the battle. Otherwise, the Gu family couldn't have held on in Tianji Prefecture for more than a whole year.

And the Pang family was also not well-intentioned. When miraculously killing Pang Tianming, the head of the Pang family, Liu Suiyun and Xu Zhaori actually found the "Extreme Yuanhuang Thunder Forging Divine Record", Elder Yunpeng's famous cultivation technique, on him. Although they didn't know through what channel Pang Tianming obtained this cultivation technique that was said to be the fastest to achieve quick progress, but at that time, Liu Suiyun, who had no choice, directly chose to practice this technique.

And now they didn't know what price the Pang family had offered, but they actually invited Elder Yunpeng out. Guo Huijun told Liu Suiyun, "That's right, it's Elder Yunpeng. Although this Golden Core cultivator didn't personally come to sit in Tianji, he has already spoken out that he will never let go of you, the chief culprit!"

Everyone couldn't help secretly rejoicing that they didn't step onto the front stage. A Golden Core cultivator, no matter how incompetent, is still a Golden Core cultivator and not someone that these little people in the Qi Condensation stage can rival. If their group had gone to Tianji, perhaps they would have already drawn trouble to themselves.

An Zhiyu added beside them, "Now Elder Yunpeng has spoken harshly. Whoever is not polite to the Pang family, he will be not polite to that person. He has also sent several disciples to sit in the Pang family!"

After all, the Pang family was Elder Yunpeng's big sponsor. Naturally, Elder Yunpeng didn't want the Pang family to fall. But Liu Suiyun smiled. "If Elder Yunpeng really supported the Pang family, he should put aside all his affairs and directly come to sit in Tianji Prefecture. Naturally, he could dispel all the prying eyes on the Pang family from all aspects. Now his attitude only shows one thing, that is, Elder Yunpeng's support for the Pang family is limited."

The Pang family certainly had Elder Yunpeng as such a big Buddha. But the several immortal cultivation families within thousands of miles around Tianji often had the shadow of Golden Core or even Nascent Soul cultivators behind them. Naturally, they wouldn't easily give up their interests. I'm afraid this time the Pang family will ultimately have to pay a heavy price.

But Guo Huijun told Liu Suiyun, "But the problem is that Elder Yunpeng can't afford to provoke the great cultivators behind those families. He can only vent his anger on you. Now he has spoken harshly and offered a heavy reward for Xing Ruyu. He wants to see you alive or dead. One hundred spirit stones for seeing you alive and two hundred spirit stones for seeing your corpse! If you can report information, there will also be a heavy reward!"

One hundred spirit stones for seeing a person alive and two hundred spirit stones for seeing a corpse. This is a rhythm of chasing and killing to the death! But Liu Suiyun just smiled lightly. "I didn't expect that I could be worth so many spirit stones! I didn't expect that I, an insignificant person, would actually have someone dare to offer two hundred spirit stones to reward me. Huijun, what's the good news?"

"The good news is that there will be an initiation ceremony for the Shenxiao Sect next month. You can just enter the Shenxiao Sect to cultivate. See who dares to mess around on Shenxiao Mountain with the courage borrowed from Elder Yunpeng!"

Although Elder Yunpeng is a Golden Core cultivator, he is ultimately just a loose cultivator. Although he was lucky enough to establish the foundation, not only does he have no successors under his sect, but also he has always been fighting alone in the immortal world and is not a force to be reckoned with. He is simply incomparable to a great sect like the Shenxiao Sect with a history of several hundred years.

You should know that the Shenxiao Sect boasts that there are cultivators above the Primordial Spirit realm in their sect. Although this great cultivator is only a legend, and the sect hasn't reached the point where "Nascent Soul cultivators are as numerous as dogs and Golden Core cultivators are everywhere", they can still pull out a Nascent Soul cultivator and several Golden Core cultivators at any time. If Elder Yunpeng wants to find trouble with the Shenxiao Sect, he is seeking death.

Even if they are both Golden Core cultivators or even at the same cultivation realm, the sect cultivators of the Shenxiao Sect will at least have a few more abilities than Elder Yunpeng.

Not to mention that Elder Yunpeng practices the "Extreme Yuanhuang Thunder Forging Divine Record". This cultivation technique makes rapid progress in the early stage, but when it comes to continuing to progress in the Foundation Establishment stage, there are countless obstacles. I don't know what kind of luck Elder Yunpeng had. He was actually lucky enough to break through to the Golden Core stage. But after breaking through to the Golden Core stage, if Elder Yunpeng wants to continue to progress, it is simply like a flower in a mirror or the moon in the water.

This news was in line with Liu Suiyun's intention. He originally wanted to enter the Shenxiao Sect. He just didn't expect this initiation ceremony to come so quickly. He originally thought it would be at least until next year or the year after. "Good! When I enter the Shenxiao Sect at that time and then come to Elder Yunpeng to collect the reward in person. What do you all think?"

"Good! Good! Good!" Now even the arguer doesn't argue anymore. "When you collect this sum of spirit stones, I will go and collect it again. Let's see if Elder Yunpeng dares to renege!"

Everyone was just joking. After all, Elder Yunpeng is a Golden Core cultivator. Even if they enter the Shenxiao Sect, they wouldn't dare to tease him like this. But Guo Huijun continued to bring good things to Liu Suiyun. "Let's divide the spoils now! After dividing the spoils, let's go our separate ways and meet again at Shenxiao Mountain. By the way! Husband, your invitation to ascend to immortality has been obtained!"

As she spoke, she had already handed a big red gilded invitation to Liu Suiyun. It was precisely an invitation to ascend to immortality necessary for this initiation ceremony of the Shenxiao Sect. Although it didn't seem very remarkable, to participate in the initiation ceremony of the Shenxiao Sect, one must have this thing. Every time when it comes to the initiation competition, the price of the invitation to ascend to immortality immediately skyrockets. Sometimes it costs hundreds of spirit stones.

Big King shouted, "Madam Guo, where did you get this invitation to ascend to immortality?"

Guo Huijun replied with a smile, "The Pang family gave it to me. Even the news of this initiation ceremony was told to me by them!"

This is a strategy to divert trouble. So as to prevent a group of cultivators from continuing to sweep through Tianji Prefecture like locusts. The arguer immediately resumed his arguing nature. "The Pang family is so good? Madam Xing, can you get an invitation to ascend to immortality for me from the Pang family?"

His words obviously offended Guo Huijun. Guo Huijun coldly glared at him. Liu Suiyun quickly intervened. "Quickly! Everyone divide the spoils. Divide the spirit stones and then each think of a way to get an invitation to ascend to immortality and meet again at Shenxiao Mountain!"

An Zhiyu was the most enthusiastic about dividing the spoils. "Yes, yes. Everyone divide the spoils. I can get a lot of spirit stones this time!"

As soon as it came to dividing spirit stones, everyone's enthusiasm was high. Big King repeatedly shouted, "Dividing spirit stones! Dividing spirit stones!"

Guo Huijun immediately took out a whole box of spirit stones from her spiritual armor and then began to divide the spoils. The one responsible for the specific details was the arguer. Because he liked to argue about everything and offended the most people, so everyone let him be responsible for dividing the spirit stones. "Senior An contributed the most and has the highest cultivation level. This time he can take eight hundred spirit stones..."

Next, everyone had their own shares. Some had one or two hundred spirit stones at most, and some had only dozens of spirit stones at least. They all made a fortune. And Liu Suiyun and Guo Huijun took the largest share. "Madam Guo has the highest martial power and contributed a lot. She takes six hundred spirit stones. Commander Xing planned everything. He takes five hundred!"

Added together, it was eleven hundred spirit stones, almost a third less of the total amount. Liu Suiyun was also very satisfied. He said to Xia Jingjue, "I don't want this sum of spirit stones. Lao Xia, give it to our old brothers as a settlement fee!"

This generous gesture shocked everyone present. This was not a small amount. Five hundred spirit stones could buy a good spiritual artifact. As for pills and talismans, a large number could be bought.

Xia Jingjue immediately stood up. "Commander, buying a manor doesn't need so much. You should keep it!"

"Brothers have followed me through thousands of miles. No matter how many hardships we have endured, they still have unwavering loyalty. Don't say five hundred spirit stones. Even five thousand spirit stones are hard to repay!" Liu Suiyun replied. "If there is any surplus, take advantage of the cheap land now and buy more fields and houses as public funds!"

Now Liu Suiyun had settled all his old subordinates brought out from Tianma Plain in Jiazhou. As for the horse thieves left in Tianma Plain, Liu Suiyun didn't care and let them fend for themselves. But he tried every means to settle these people well.

He had already made up his mind. These old subordinates might be experts on the battlefield, but when it comes to managing and maintaining a family, there are few who are good at it. Therefore, he simply decided to buy more manors and let his old subordinates all become wealthy landowners. Each person should have a manor as much as possible. If someone is willing to go into the city to do business, then buy a few more shops. Anyway, he can't let everyone suffer losses.

His actions were very generous. You should know that even the smallest manor is still a manor and has at least dozens of tenant farmers. Moreover, Liu Suiyun thought about these old subordinates and didn't mind spending more money. He had already bought dozens of manors and nearly a hundred shops in Jiazhou.

Originally, such actions would have caused the prices in Jiazhou to skyrocket. But after Liu Suiyun's operations, the Pang family in Tianji now transferred out many fields, houses, and shops that were useless or too remote or that they didn't dare to keep at low prices, attracting all the gold and silver in Jiazhou to flow into Tianji. Instead, the price of land in Jiazhou actually dropped a lot.

Xia Jingjue immediately agreed. "Okay, I'll buy another batch of public fields and also..."

There was a lot of emotion in his words. "Commander, I'll also buy a manor for you and Madam Guo and several shops. If you get tired of Shenxiao Mountain, come to Jiazhou and be wealthy landowners with us old subordinates!"

But Liu Suiyun shook his head and said, "Lao Xia, don't you understand? The reason why I didn't leave even a single spirit stone is because now in my heart there is only Shenxiao Mountain..."

Liu Suiyun said with confidence, "In my eyes, there is only the great way of Shenxiao!"

His words carried a long-standing yearning, an unwavering determination, and a longing for the future.

Guo Huijun held Liu Suiyun's hand and said, "Okay, I'll go to Shenxiao Mountain with you!"

The road leads to Shenxiao, and the sword points to Lingxiao!
