"Royal spiritual veins..."
Upon hearing this question, Seventh Master sighed and said helplessly, "In the past two or three decades, in order to enable the royal family's Martial Kings and Martial Gods to break through and improve their cultivation as soon as possible, we have not paid attention to restraint when using spiritual veins, resulting in excessive consumption and the depletion of all spiritual veins."
At this point, Seventh Master's face was filled with heartache.
Once the spiritual veins are depleted, they can no longer be used.
During this time, Da Gan has been searching for various methods to revitalize the depleted spiritual veins, but unfortunately, he has not been able to achieve his goal.
then.
Seventh Master continued, "Actually, it's not just our royal family that's like this. Other forces with spiritual veins are the same. In order to improve their strength as quickly as possible, they all overuse spiritual veins, which have all been depleted. It's such a pity."
As he spoke—
Seventh Master glanced at Lu Tao and said, "If it weren't for that, I would have invited you to cultivate on the spiritual vein earlier. Why would I have let you not use such good cultivation conditions?"
"I see."
Lu Tao nodded, not finding it surprising.
Lu Tao had thought about this issue as early as when the Dragon Palace discovered the existence of spiritual veins. He naturally did not believe that a great power like the Dragon Palace would not have spiritual veins.
However, since Seventh Master placed his hopes on him, he only provided him with some resources, not spiritual veins.
At that time.
Lu Tao guessed that there might be a problem with the spiritual vein.
Seventh Master looked at Lu Tao and laughed, "Fortunately, you are capable enough to seize the spiritual vein, and your cultivation level is also..."
Seventh Master did not continue speaking, but looked at Lu Tao with an inquiring expression, as if he wanted to know Lu Tao's cultivation level.
Lu Tao smiled faintly, ignoring that topic, and changed the subject, saying, "Seventh Master, once the spiritual vein is depleted, it's useless, right?"
Lu Tao didn't talk much about cultivation, which made Seventh Master slightly disappointed, but also excited.
Simply because.
If his cultivation hadn't improved so quickly, why would Lu Tao have avoided talking about it?
Seventh Master didn't think much of it and replied, "The depletion of the spiritual vein means that all the spiritual energy within it has been exhausted. We can only try burying it in a spirit stone mine to see if it can be restored."
As he spoke, Seventh Master couldn't help but shake his head and say, "Unfortunately, judging from the conditions for the formation of spiritual veins, this attempt is probably not going to be of any use."
A spiritual vein is formed gradually over countless years from a vein of primordial stone.
How difficult it is to restore a depleted spiritual vein.
Upon hearing this, Lu Tao's expression shifted, and he said, "Since the spiritual veins are already depleted, why not give them to me?"
"Do you have a way to restore the spiritual veins?"
Seventh Master looked at Lu Tao with a suspicious gaze.
You need to know.
When Da Gan was searching for a way to restore the spiritual veins, they didn't just search within Da Gan itself, but also offered high rewards overseas, and even searched for other races and other planes.
However, no method has been found to restore the spiritual veins.
Lu Tao, does he have that ability?
"No."
Lu Tao shook his head, then laughed and said, "However, as you know, I don't have any other strengths, except that I have a decent comprehension. Let me tinker around with it, and maybe I can find a way to restore it in the future."
"Fine, you can have it."
After pondering for a moment, Seventh Master decided to give it to Lu Tao.
after all.
Lu Tao had just given them a high-grade spiritual vein, so since Lu Tao had asked for more, it was only right that they return the favor by giving him a depleted high-grade spiritual vein and several other spiritual veins of different grades.
and.
Even if Lu Tao does find a way to restore the spiritual veins in the future, that will be a long time from now.
Perhaps, by then, Lu Tao had already ascended to the realm of gods.
"Thank you, Seventh Master."
With a smile on his face, Lu Tao asked again, "Seventh Master, how many spiritual veins does Daqian have? Could you also give me the spiritual veins that other forces have depleted?"
"You kid don't actually have a way to restore the spiritual veins, do you?"
Upon hearing this, Seventh Master looked at Lu Tao with some suspicion and said, "If you really have this method, rest assured, Da Gan will definitely not treat you unfairly."
Lu Tao said helplessly, "I really don't, I swear..."
"Stop, stop, stop. If you don't have one, you don't have one. What kind of oath are you making? Martial oaths are not to be taken lightly."
Seventh Master hurriedly interrupted, glaring at Lu Tao before continuing, "Later, I'll have cultivators from other factions cultivate on the spiritual veins in exchange for their depleted ones. I'm sure they'll agree."
"Thank you very much, Seventh Master. You are very thoughtful."
Lu Tao gave Seventh Master a small compliment.
Seventh Master rolled his eyes, then pulled Ji Chengxuan over and said, "No need for thanks. This little guy is called Ji Chengxuan. After taking your Transcendent Pill, his aptitude has improved to the middle level of the Heavenly Grade. How about he joins your Immortal Sect?"
"sure."
Lu Tao nodded in agreement.
When Seventh Master brought Ji Chengxuan to the Immortal Sect, Lu Tao guessed that this was the possibility, so he was not surprised.
He had already thought everything through and agreed without hesitation.
but.
Although he agreed, as the sect leader, Lu Tao still needed to clarify things beforehand.
Therefore.
Lu Tao said in a deep voice, "However, Seventh Master, let me make this clear from the beginning: in the Immortal Sect, all disciples are treated equally. Furthermore, no matter what your identity or status, you must not betray the Immortal Sect. If I find out, I will not let you off lightly."
"Each clan has its own rules, and this is how it is."
Seventh Master wasn't angry. He nodded and said, "If the little guy has really done something to offend the Immortal Sect, you can do whatever you want with him. Kill him as you please. My royal family will not say a word."
Killing and beating at will?
Ji Chengxuan was only seven years old, and upon hearing this, he couldn't help but feel a little scared.
It wasn't that he intended to betray the Immortal Sect; the main thing was that he knew that everyone makes mistakes, and what if he accidentally made a mistake and got killed?
For a moment, Ji Chengxuan felt somewhat lost.
Lu Tao smiled and said, "With Seventh Master's words, I can rest assured."
Seventh Master nodded, kicked Ji Chengxuan in the backside, and said, "Hurry up and pay your respects to your sect leader!"
"Disciple Ji Chengxuan greets Sect Master!"
Ji Chengxuan immediately knelt on the ground and respectfully kowtowed to Lu Tao.
"Yes, get up."
Lu Tao accepted the courtesy and then asked the man to rise so he could serve him and make tea for the two of them.
And at this time.
After much internal struggle, the Ninth Prince Ji Zhiyuan suddenly seemed to have made a decision. He stood up, bowed to Lu Tao, and asked, "Sect Master Lu, I wonder if the Immortal Sect accepts disciples at the Divine Platform Realm?"
"..."
This sudden turn of events not only stunned Lu Tao and Ji Chengxuan, but even Seventh Master was slightly taken aback.
That was really unexpected.
He never expected that Ji Zhiyuan would make this choice.
But it must be said that this decision was both bold and absolutely correct.
Therefore.
Seventh Master was somewhat gratified.
He originally thought that Ji Zhiyuan was not smart enough and would never be able to sit on the dragon throne in his lifetime. However, Ji Zhiyuan directly gave up the idea of sitting on the throne and instead joined the Immortal Sect.
Become a disciple of the Immortal Sect.
This kind of determination is not something an ordinary person can make.
It's obvious.
Ji Zhiyuan finally understood.
Seventh Master smiled slightly and looked at Lu Tao.
Lu Tao hesitated.
It's good that we accepted Ji Chengxuan. Although he is a member of the royal family, he is still young, and his aptitude was improved because of his pills.
But Ji Zhiyuan is different.
He is the ninth prince of the current imperial family, and his status is extraordinary.
His cultivation level has also reached the peak of the Divine Platform.
It's very difficult to get someone like that to completely submit to the Immortal Sect.
Lu Tao thought for a moment and asked, "Seventh Master, can princes of the royal family also join other sects?"
Seventh Master said, "Other sects are naturally not suitable, but the Immortal Sect is."
Upon hearing this, Lu Tao didn't know what to say.
"Sect Master, Ji Zhiyuan truly wants to join the Immortal Sect."
Seeing Lu Tao hesitate, the Ninth Prince directly swore: "I, Ji Zhiyuan, hereby swear that as long as I join the Immortal Sect, I will never betray it. If I break this oath, my martial arts will be cut off, my soul will be scattered, and I will never have the chance to be reincarnated. Heaven and earth bear witness."
Lu Tao, Seventh Master, and Ji Chengxuan were all somewhat moved upon hearing this.
As a member of the royal family, and a prince at that, he would never easily make a martial arts oath.
Not to mention oaths to Heaven.
But when Ji Zhiyuan made his martial arts oath and heavenly oath in order to join the Immortal Sect, he was so resolute and decisive.
visible.
How strong was his determination to join the Immortal Sect?
See here.
Lu Tao no longer hesitated and said, "Alright, from now on, you, Ji Zhiyuan, will be a member of the Immortal Sect."
"Yes, disciple Ji Zhiyuan greets the sect leader."
Ji Zhiyuan was about to kneel down and pay homage to Lu Tao, just like his son Ji Chengxuan, but Lu Tao stopped him, saying, "From now on, you will be the protector of the Immortal Sect, so there is no need for you to kneel down."
"Yes, Sect Master!"
After bowing to Lu Tao, Ji Zhiyuan stood beside Lu Tao to serve him.
Seventh Master smiled slightly, feeling very happy for Ji Zhiyuan.
only.
When he looked at Ji Zhiyuan and Ji Chengxuan, who were standing on either side of Lu Tao, and then at his own empty side, he was momentarily stunned.
Just moments ago, these two people were serving me.
In the blink of an eye, their positions changed.
For a moment, Seventh Master was somewhat dazed.
However, in his heart, Seventh Master was also happy for Ji Zhiyuan and his son.
Opportunities are something you have to strive for; they don't just fall from the sky.
As for Lu Tao, Seventh Master had nothing but admiration for him.
It is perfectly normal for disciples to kneel and bow when they become disciples in a sect, but Lu Tao did not make Ji Zhiyuan kneel.
He knew that this was not because of him, or because Ji Chengxuan was present.
Rather, it's because Lu Tao simply has this kind of personality.
He has his own internal hierarchy of respect and status.
This is something that Seventh Master greatly appreciates.
Unlike some people who, once their status and cultivation improve, gradually disregard the dignity of others and lose their humanity.
How is that any different from an animal?
Respecting others is also respecting yourself.
With a sect leader like Lu Tao, the Immortal Sect will surely reach great heights and go far in the future.
Thinking this way.
Seventh Master chatted casually with Lu Tao in a relaxed manner, and the two had a pleasant conversation.
It didn't take long.
Nine Martial Kings at the peak of their cultivation arrived at the Immortal Sect to pay their respects.
