"Because I refused to sign the Investiture of the Gods, I was attacked by the Four Sages. Countless disciples of my Jie Sect were killed or injured, and countless others were sent to the Heavenly Court to be conferred the title of God."
"Afterwards, I was forced by Hongjun to take the Fallen Saint Pill, and was trapped in Zixiao Palace forever, never to set foot in the prehistoric world."
"Our Jie Sect has been reduced to the point where only Wudang remains!"
Hehe, this is the consequence of joining the mystical sect.
Sitting on the futon, the Tongtian Sect Leader's eyes shone with a vast sword light, and his killing intent soared to the sky.
He has no regrets!
But now he understands very well that he must face reality.
Losing the strength of a saint and falling to the peak of a quasi-saint—this is the price of leaving the Xuanmen sect.
"All disciples have come to Biyou Palace for a meeting!"
As soon as the Tongtian Sect Leader uttered his words, all the disciples of the Jie Sect responded to the call and came over. After bowing, they all looked at the Tongtian Sect Leader on the high prayer mat.
"Until I recover my saintly cultivation, none of you shall step out of Jin'ao Island. Anyone who disobeys this order shall be expelled from the Jie Sect."
Tongtian said coldly.
He used to be too sentimental, which allowed Taiqing and Yuanshi to join forces and use the shackles of loyalty to put Tongtian in a difficult position. In the end, he could only sacrifice his own interests to satisfy his so-called brotherhood.
This was how he treated Taiqing Yuanshi, and it was also how he treated his many disciples.
But now.
Tongtian has decided to make a change, and hopefully the road ahead will be smooth sailing!
At this moment, most of the disciples of the Jie Sect were confused, but it didn't last long. Since it was their master's order, there must be a reason, and they just had to obey.
Watching all the disciples leave Biyou Palace, Tongtian was left standing alone, his hands behind his back, his expression full of loneliness.
"Returning to the realm of a sage is easier said than done."
After he relinquished his sainthood, the Primordial Purple Qi he had previously refined automatically flew back into Hongjun's hands. Therefore, without the Primordial Purple Qi, Tongtian was unable to advance to the Saint Realm!
However, at this moment, a man in white arrived at Biyou Palace. He was none other than Kuafu. Upon seeing this, Tongtian hurriedly went to greet him. After exchanging pleasantries for a while, the two got down to business.
"No, no, this is too valuable!"
The heavens were shocked.
At this moment, gazing at the purple mist in Kuafu's hand, he was very familiar with it. This was the prerequisite for a sage of merit to attain enlightenment: the Primordial Purple Qi.
Tongtian didn't have time to think much about why Kuafu possessed the Primordial Purple Qi. Kuafu smiled faintly and said, "Fellow Daoist, there's no need to be so embarrassed. There's no such thing as a free lunch."
“I’m giving you the Primordial Purple Qi, but it’s not free.”
"If you want it, you have to promise me one thing."
Upon hearing this, Tongtian breathed a sigh of relief. Since his fellow Daoist had recognized his value in some way, this was truly a joyous occasion!
"I'm afraid that what I did will not be enough to offset the value of the Primordial Purple Qi."
Tongtian smiled helplessly.
The Primordial Purple Qi is the foundation for attaining enlightenment. Apart from attaining enlightenment through force to become a Primordial Golden Immortal, the only way to become a saint is to control the Primordial Purple Qi.
"It's very simple."
"Bring your Jie Sect to my camp, the Changsheng Sect."
Kuafu said slowly.
This is a huge win, because he now has one percent control over the Primordial World, thanks to upgrading it to the first level.
However, after reaching the first level, upgrading to the second level requires a massive amount of cultivation resources.
Despite exhausting all the resources of the Longevity Sect on Penglai Immortal Island, they were still unable to upgrade the Primordial World to the second level. Therefore, Kuafu decided to take this path: a path to subdue all forces.
With more people, there will be more resources.
The Tongtian Sect Leader will definitely submit to him; he's not stupid. The Jie Sect alone is no match for the Xuanmen Sect.
Now, Kuafu's gaze lingered on Tongtian's face, quietly awaiting his answer.
"Fellow Daoist." After a long while, Tongtian asked, "I only have one question: Does the Longevity Sect teach without discrimination, and does it look down on those with fur and horns?"
"Don't worry, I treat the disciples of the Jie Sect and the Changsheng Sect equally."
"Join our religion and you will gain eternal life and freedom."
"Give yourself confidence, and give me your trust."
Kuafu spoke slowly, his smile radiant.
"Your Excellency, please accept my deepest bow!"
Upon hearing this, the Tongtian Sect Leader suddenly knelt on one knee and bowed.
Kuafu helped him up and said, "There's no need for that. From now on, we can still call each other fellow Daoists."
After handing over the Primordial Purple Qi to Tongtian, Kuafu returned to Penglai Immortal Island first. As for when the Jie Sect members went to Penglai Immortal Island, that depends on how Tongtian told his disciples about it.
A few days later.
On Jin'ao Island, many disciples of the Jie Sect were extremely shocked. Today, the Tongtian Sect Leader announced something.
All members of the Jie Sect were mobilized and marched to Penglai Immortal Island. Everyone joined the Longevity Sect and worshipped Kuafu as their leader!
"How is this possible? Has Master gone mad?"
"Has the Jie Sect really fallen to this level?"
"No, I want to see my master. How can our prestigious Jie Sect join another sect?"
"That's right, this is completely against etiquette. Or is it that Master greatly admires Kuafu?"
"Alright, shut up, all of you!"
At this moment, Daoist Duobao gave a cold shout and then said, "Master naturally has his instructions, so we should just listen to them. Besides, I have long heard that the cultivation resources in Penglai Immortal Realm are abundant, and it is simply known as the number one blessed land in the prehistoric world."
"Moreover, the leader of the Kuafu sect is no ordinary person. If he were to take action, what would the disciples of the Chan sect be?"
