Who Let Him Cultivate?! - Chapter 129

Chapter 129: Chapter 128: The Secret Meeting of the Five Great Immortal Sects_1

On a certain peak of Seek Dao Sect, the decision-makers of the Five Great Immortal Sects had gathered.

This peak was utterly mysterious, only known to the upper echelons of Seek Dao Sect.

The four decision-makers sat quietly, waiting for the organizer of this meeting to speak.

Knowing everyone was present, Yun Zhi emerged from her profund reflection. She opened her eyes, and within them, countless worlds, endless time and space lay as mysteries. The other four were slightly startled meeting Yun Zhi’s gaze.

They were shocked. They hadn’t seen Yun Zhi in many years. Even back then, she had an unfathomable depth about her. But now, that sense was even more pronounced.

The Seek Dao Sect was exceptionally fortunate to have her as a member.

And she was the disciple of that old rascal, Daoist Buyu.

But Yun Zhi’s profound cultivation level was a good thing for them. The Great Era was coming—an era abundant in divine revelations and rife with turmoil incited by the demonic sect. The great powers who had slept for hundreds of thousands of years were awakening, and the rumoured immortals were gradually making their presence known.

They could imagine, those great powers and immortals would not simply adhere to the current rules. Instead, they would redefine law and order according to their wills, a disaster proceeding for both mortals and cultivators alike.

Already, some latent cultivators of great power had awakened and were stirring up trouble in the Central Continent. However, before they could fully come into their own, they were jointly killed by the Five Great Immortal Sects.

Not all immortals were as carefree and content as Fairy Eternity.

Just look at the Ancient Nameless One that transformed stars into continents. He was a tough nut to crack.

Given these circumstances, the stronger the Five Great Immortal Sects, the better they could resist the impending catastrophe.

Yun Zhi spoke calmly, “The reason I summoned everyone here today is that I’ve come across some intelligence from the demonic sect which I wish to share with you all.”

The four decision-makers tensed up. No wonder Yun Zhi did not employ conventional methods like message transmission. Instead, she had brought them here to this secret peak of the Seek Dao Sect.

The secrecy of this peak was maintained by efforts from generations of Seek Dao Sect venerables, and Yun Zhi’s modifications, which could shield him from fate and causality, ensuring complete confidentiality.

Though the demonic sect was not strong, they had faith in the immortals and had gained many immortal treasures and methods from them. These treasures and methods were hard to defend against, and they needed to be handled with care.

“As you may know, over a month ago, I raided the Eternity Sect headquarters and came across certain intelligence. Two pieces of information are worth noting: one, a method to resurrect the Immortal Eternity, and two, information relating to a ‘mole’.”

The four decision-makers sat up straighter. Reviving an immortal was serious news.

Though they had heard that Yun Zhi had annihilated the Eternity Sect’s stronghold, they hadn’t known how she managed to find it.

“The Dao Fruit of Immortal Eternity is unique. Even when he is utterly destroyed, his spirit shattered, he can be resurrected, whether someone intentionally or unintentionally remembers his title and immortal name!”

The four decision-makers’ hearts jolted. Indeed, none of the immortal’s Dao Fruits could be taken lightly. All those they had encountered before were related to enhancing combat power. This was the first time they had encountered a Dao Fruit purely meant for survival.

“The intelligence also mentioned that the Eternity Sect has planted moles in the Laurel Fairy Palace, the Prison Suppressing Sect, and the Five Elements Sect.”

In truth, this intelligence wasn’t taken from the Eternity Sect headquarters. It was obtained by Lu Yang from the Inspector, Tang Yunsheng.

When Tang Yunsheng assigned Lu Yang and the others with the mole mission, he mentioned that aside from the Suspension Temple, which had few disciples, and the Seek Dao Sect, which was full of oddballs, all the other three sects had moles present.

The Five Great Immortal Sects included: The Seek Dao Sect, known for its profound Dao and erratic thoughts, which the other four sects warned their juniors to stay away from.

The merciful Suspension Temple, which had the fewest disciples yet profound strength.

The Laurel Fairy Palace, who thought the moon hid secrets. They cultivated with the help of the moon and grew laurel trees.

The Prison Suppressing Sect, dedicated to suppressing all evils.

And the Five Elements Sect with its doctrine of Unitary Five Elements and a thorough understanding of the principles of the Five Elements.

The other four sects saw themselves as incompatible with the Seek Dao Sect.

The Seek Dao Sect considered the other four sects incompatible with them.

But aside from the incompatibility, the Five Great Immortal Sects had a good relationship.

“So the meeting was for the mole matter.” Palace Master Luo of the Laurel Fairy Palace wasn’t surprised since she was Lan Ting’s master, and Lan Ting had informed her of some matters.

The presiding master of the Suspension Temple didn’t say much. Their Suspension Temple didn’t have any moles from the demonic sect. This was partly because they had fewer members and partly due to their divergent beliefs. Those from the demonic sect who recite scriptures and observe religious precepts all day would definitely cause a crisis in their faith if they stayed there for too long, and would easily expose themselves.

“I never expected that even though our Prison Suppressing Sect advocates suppressing all heresies, the Eternity Sect secretly infiltrated our sect. I will carry out a thorough investigation when I return!” Sect Leader of the Prison Suppressing Sect was furious but didn’t overact considering the occasion.

“Since there are moles, there must be spies from not just the Eternity Sect. There could be spies from other demonic sects hiding among us, and we need to conduct a thorough search.” The Sect Leader of Five Elements Sect had ice- cold eyes. The demonic sect really had the gall, daring to disregard their Five Elements Sect.

“So, how shall we investigate the moles?” Palace Master Luo from the Laurel Fairy Palace asked.

“Doesn’t the Eternity Sect worship the Immortal Eternity? How about we have our disciples yell ‘Immortal Eternity is a bastard’ in unison?” The Sect Leader of the Five Elements Sect suggested.

The others nodded, thinking it was a good idea.

Sect Leader of the Prison Suppressing Sect said, “There’s another way, we all certainly have a list of suspects. We can let those on this list say ‘Our master uttered the Immortal Eternity’s name, and the Immortal Eternity has already resurrected. The Master has asked all believers to gather at the headquarters.’”

The Righteous Path didn’t know about the way to resurrect the Immortal Eternity. When the moles from Eternity Sect hear this, they are highly likely to assume the person who said it is a follower of the Eternity Sect.

Yun Zhi shook her head: “That will only alert the enemy. Not only is there a mole from the Eternity Sect on the list but also from other sects. If the other three sects hear you saying this, they’ll know you’re checking for moles.”

Sect Leader of the Prison Suppressing Sect thought Yun Zhi made sense and didn’t suggest any further.

“By the way, isn’t the Seek Dao Sect free of moles? Could you share some of your insights, Yun Zhi?” the Sect Leader of the Five Elements Sect said, gaining the approval of the other three.

Yun Zhi rarely frowned – she was stumped by the question. She didn’t even know why the Seek Dao Sect not only had no moles from the demonic sect but was able to plant moles within the demonic sect.

“Perhaps it’s because the disciples of my Seek Dao Sect are simple-minded. Members of the demonic sect, on the other hand, have complex thoughts and cannot mimic the way my disciples of the Seek Dao Sect think.”

The group came up with many cunning ways to search for moles, among which the master of the Suspension Temple was the most ruthless. If these methods were made public, the world’s perception of them would drastically change.

At the end of the secret meeting, everyone left the mountain peak. Three of them left the Seek Dao Sect while the Palace Master of the Laurel Fairy Palace remained.

“Palace Master Luo, is there anything else you need?” Yun Zhi asked, referring to the Palace Master of the Laurel Fairy Palace, named Luo Hongxia.

Luo Hongxia summoned a reluctant Lan Ting: “Does your Seek Dao Sect have a disciple named Lu Yang? I have matters to discuss with him. My Lan Ting, such a good child, has been led astray by him. He needs to compensate for this!”

Yun Zhi calmly suggested: “How about we let the two become a Daoist couple?”

Luo Hongxia’s expression stiffened.
