Chapter 176: The Old Dog A-Tu
Dongfang Tao, having achieved the grand accomplishment of Nascent Soul True Immortality, is now a prominent figure in the Kunlun Sect, a person of great interest to everyone in the sect. After all, it has been eleven years since the last Nascent Soul True Immortal emerged from Kunlun.
With the ceremonies and formalities concluded, and his position and power within the sect reestablished, Dongfang Tao now has the qualification to practice on the four most precious peaks in the Kunlun Sect’s core, known as the Celestial Abyss Peaks. Additionally, his own residence on the mountain will be preserved.
After these matters were settled, Dongfang Tao formally held a ceremony to accept Yi Xin as his disciple, marking his first direct disciple in his lifetime.
Once the news spread, it caused a stir throughout Kunlun Mountain, especially among the many families in Kunwu City, where the reaction was even greater.
Although the news was already known to well-informed people, Dongfang Tao was once just an old Golden Core cultivator. Later, after being injured and retreating into seclusion for a long time, his influence waned and he was nearly forgotten. No one expected that this old man, after staying hidden for so long, would suddenly emerge as a Nascent Soul True Immortal, catching everyone off guard.
Overnight, the status of the Yi family in Kunwu City soared. After all, Yi Xin is now Dongfang Tao’s only disciple, and if nothing goes wrong, she will likely inherit Dongfang Tao’s legacy. With a powerful Nascent Soul True Immortal backing her, she has become a formidable presence capable of intimidating many influential families in the city.
After officially becoming his disciple, Yi Xin’s status in the Kunlun Sect skyrocketed. She quickly moved out of the Flowery Fragrance Courtyard and took residence on San Zhang Peak.
When Dongfang Tao later went to cultivate on the Celestial Abyss Peaks, the peak residence on San Zhang Peak would essentially belong to Yi Xin.
The subsequent days were filled with countless visits and congratulations from all directions. From sect members to major families in Kunwu City, from various shops to the numerous cultivation sects around Kunlun, everyone sent representatives to offer greetings and cultivate relationships.
