In the blink of an eye, more than 500 years have passed. During these 500 years, through the efforts of the members of Lingxiao Palace, branch palaces have spread across 200 major domains of the Qiongzu Universe. Wherever they pass, all the cultivators are happy and register to join the palace without hesitation.
All of this is due to the reputation of Lingxiao Palace over the years. After all, everyone knows that Lingxiao Palace specializes in targeting those black-hearted financial tycoons who eat people without leaving any bones, and there is no distinction between high and low among the members of the palace. Who wouldn't be tempted?
These low-level cultivators, whose lifespans start at at least 100 billion years, were once high and mighty, and came to the Qiongzu Universe with the dream of becoming stronger. However, they were ruthlessly slapped in the face by reality and suffered endless oppression. Now they see a powerful force that does not require members to have a certain background, and most importantly, the Lingxiao Palace still advocates the value of equality. Naturally, these low-level cultivators are flocking to it.
However, few of those vested interests chose to join Lingxiao Palace. After Lingxiao Palace swept across the large areas where they were located, they either chose to live a low-key life locally, or chose to move to a large area that Lingxiao Palace had not yet involved. Of course, there were also some cultivators who chose to join Lingxiao Palace. After all, the condition for joining Lingxiao Palace was just to register a name, and it would not restrict the freedom of palace members.
There is no way, when you are under someone's roof, you have to bow your head. Haven't you seen that even some first-rate forces choose to avoid it?
In fact, at the beginning, there were many powerful forces that chose to confront Lingxiao Palace, but without exception, they were all suppressed by Lingxiao Palace. The entire force was uprooted and not even ashes were left. Of course, this was just an appearance. In fact, the people of those forces were basically all taken by Li Mu to the Lingxiao Universe, or surrendered to Lingxiao Palace and re-proven the Tao in Jianmu, or were thrown by Li Mu to the roots of Jianmu and completely became the nutrients of Jianmu.
Some people even went to the six major forces to complain, but the people from the six major forces didn't care at all. They just turned a blind eye to what Lingxiao Palace did.
Since then, a rumor began to spread in the Qiongzu Universe, and some people speculated that the six major forces were supporting Lingxiao Palace.
After all, the slogan of Lingxiao Palace is Aiqiongzu, and it has six major forces.
Moreover, many high-ranking officials of Lingxiao Palace were once young geniuses of the six major forces. Although the six major forces have announced that those cultivators will be expelled from their respective family sects, who would believe this?
As soon as this statement came out, cultivators throughout the entire Qiongzu Universe were expecting the six major forces to speak out, but in the end, all they got was that those who spread the rumors were dealt with.
As a result, although everyone no longer dared to say it out loud, they were more convinced in their hearts that there was an inseparable relationship between Lingxiao Palace and the six major forces, and their enthusiasm for joining Lingxiao Palace was even higher.
Among the 300 major domains developed by Lingxiao Palace, the number of cultivators who joined Lingxiao Palace has reached a terrifying 90%. It can be said that these 300 major domains have been firmly controlled by Lingxiao Palace.
You have to know that there are only 800 large domains in the entire Qiongzu Universe, which means that Lingxiao Palace now controls half of the Qiongzu Universe, which is really chilling.
Of course, these 300 large domains are not under the direct jurisdiction of the six major forces in the Qiongzu Universe. In fact, Li Mu once tried to test the bottom line of the six major forces and controlled a large domain near the main domain of each of the six major forces. However, the six major forces not only remained indifferent, but also took the initiative to evacuate their disciples, which really made Li Mu speechless.
However, Li Mu firmly believed that the six major forces would never be so easy to talk to. He felt that there would be a war between him and the six major forces in the future, so he did not choose to swallow up the territories of the six major forces. After all, those places were too close to their main domains. If the two sides fought in the future, there would be no buffer space.
Just when Li Mu thought that everything was going smoothly and was about to open up the 301st domain, people from the Ji family, one of the six major forces, rarely attacked the members of the Lingxiao Palace. Not only did they threaten to get out, they also injured many members of the Lingxiao Palace.
Li Mu did not think much about this, thinking that he had probably encountered a group of fools. He did not intend to conflict with those people, so he took the initiative to choose to retreat and ordered the palace members to withdraw from that large domain and move to another large domain to continue development.
However, no matter which domain the people from Lingxiao Palace moved to, there would always be people from the six major forces coming out to obstruct them.
However, although the people of the six major forces tried their best to prevent the further expansion of Lingxiao Palace, they did not take the initiative to launch an attack on any of the 300 domains that Lingxiao Palace had already occupied.
For a while, the expansion of Lingxiao Palace came to a standstill.
Seeing this situation, Li Mu had an idea in his mind. It turned out that 300 large domains were the bottom line of the six major forces!
After thinking this through, Li Mu stopped the expansion of Lingxiao Palace.
Li Mu didn't understand what the six major forces were up to, but since they didn't take the initiative to attack him, he naturally wouldn't provoke them.
300 large domains are not a small number. Lingxiao Palace has expanded too fast in recent years and has not had time to digest them properly. It is a good time to take a break and make further plans after these large domains are consumed.
The so-called digestion is to select the Taoists with outstanding talents and strong strength, lure them to the Lingxiao Universe, and then use various threats and inducements to make them cut off their own Taoist fruits, and then prove the Tao again in Li Mu's Lingxiao Jianmu, truly transforming them into formal members of the Lingxiao Palace, so that their cultivation can bless Lingxiao Jianmu, contribute to the growth of Lingxiao Palace and the expansion of the Lingxiao Universe, and at the same time, it can also improve Li Mu's cultivation.
This is a very complicated task. After all, there are 300 large domains, and the diameter of each large domain is calculated in Gai light years. The Qiongzu Universe is not Li Mu's Lingxiao Universe. He cannot mobilize the way of heaven and can only let his subordinates screen them one by one.
This is not something that can be accomplished in a few hundred or thousand years, it may take tens of thousands of years.
It just so happened that the transmission channels connecting the major domains were also about to be closed. During the period of closure, it was very inconvenient for the major domains to communicate with each other. Even if the six major forces went crazy and wanted to attack Lingxiao Palace one day, it would not be an easy task. Therefore, Li Mu decided to use the 100,000 years when the transmission channels were closed to carefully screen out qualified cultivators. By then, his cultivation would reach an unprecedented height. By then, no matter what the attitude of the six major forces towards Lingxiao Palace was, he planned to confront them.
Li Mu once had a guess that all of this was caused by the creator of the Qiongzu Universe, the man known as the ancestor of Tianyi, and that the other party was definitely not kind-hearted and was not paving the way for himself for no reason.
The ancestors of the six major forces, especially Ji Hao of the Ji family, must know something. If Tianyi ancestor does not come out, he will definitely take the initiative to find the ancestors of the six major forces to seek answers.
