Chapter 995: Ten Thousand Dharma Island
"Could this aura be Ximen Qinggang?"
"Tsk tsk, Ximen Qinggang has not unleashed such a burst of aura in tens of thousands of years since becoming the master of the Tao Court Sect."
"Could it be that something happened to the Tao Court Sect?"
"Don’t you know? The incident occurred in the Riverflow Great World."
"The Riverflow Great World, that desolate place? Who there could possibly threaten the Tao Court Sect?"
Passing beings engaged in animated discussion. In the Ancient Immortal Realm, not every being could become an immortal or god. Only those whose names were recorded in the heavenly tome were eligible.
After becoming immortal, they would be looked after by the qi movement of the Heavenly Dao, and their cultivation speed would far surpass other beings; they could even bypass heavenly tribulations.
Therefore, for the beings of the Ancient Immortal Realm, attaining immortality held immense allure.
But becoming immortal also meant a loss of free will. Once the Heavenly Dao was enraged, all subordinate immortals and gods would lose consciousness and become mere fighting machines for the Heavenly Dao.
A long time ago, there had been such an instance where all immortals and gods lost consciousness and were dispatched to capture a demon attempting to defy the heavens. Despite the Ancient Immortal Realm’s efforts to suppress the news, the legend still survived.
Ximen Qinggang had once written his name in the heavenly tome, ranking among the immortals. He was once just a named disciple of Canghua Immortal Venerable but had ridden the qi movement of the Heavenly Dao to rise high and become an existence comparable to the Steal Moon Sect’s masters and the twelve venerables of Xuanxu.
