The others were all somewhat stunned as well; in their eyes, their spiritual leader Chu Mo was naturally the strongest among them. With his own power, he had almost silenced the entire Immortal Realm. How many of those who had targeted Chu Mo before can still be seen today? The once noisy tide of calls to slay the demon had already calmed down long ago.

Have you seen how people from the large clans and sects have been rushing to Piaomiao Palace lately to show goodwill? Among them are some who had past grudges, as well as those who have never met before.

This is reality!

When you can't beat someone and can only look up to them, almost everyone... chooses to face reality.

But this is only Chu Mo's personal strength. It doesn't mean he can easily make a great clan like the Fu Family give up their surname and become a branch of a "small sect" that hasn't even been established yet.

Even the Demon Lord and Xiao Ya had never thought of this.

The old cultivator and Tonghui exchanged glances and saw the shock in each other's eyes. They also shared a feeling of fortune: coming here, they hadn't made a mistake!

On the faces of Yin'er and Xing'er, there was an exciting expression. They had only wanted to escape from their families; thinking back to their brief encounter with Chu Mo, who was now famous in the Immortal Realm, they decided to follow him. They had quietly left their families because if their respective families had known at the time, they would have certainly confined them, not allowing them to take even half a step out of the family estates!

But if it were now... both of them believed they wouldn't need to sneak out at all; they just had to say one thing, "We know Chu Mo!" They were certain their respective families would happily bring generous gifts and send them straight to his door.

This too is reality!

Both women felt sentimental and were very happy that they could finally get away from those two annoying ghosts. Even if they couldn't always be by Chu Mo's side, it would be great to stay at Piaomiao Palace!

Although they had not looked down on those who ascended from the Spirit Realm before, they still had a bit of a sense of superiority in their hearts. This sense of superiority had nothing to do with character but was more of an instinctive recognition. But now, that bit of superiority they felt had completely disappeared.

Because they found that, apart from Qin Shi and Dong Yu, who were already princesses from prestigious Heavenly Realm families, even the newly ascended cultivators like Huang Hui, Hua Xiaoya, Ping Ping, and Fang Lan had stunning talents. Each of them possessed combat strength far superior to that of other cultivators at the same level!

With everyone having nothing else to do these days, they would practice and spar with one another, and the two women were hardly a match for any one of them!

This gave them a great sense of defeat, but at the same time, their interest in Piaomiao Palace... was rising to an unprecedented level!

Because they both knew that the reason these people were so strong was because of that young man who was famous throughout the Immortal Realm. To be precise, it was because of someone famous throughout the Cultivation Realm!

Now in the entire Cultivation Realm, is there any bloodline cultivator who could enter the realm of divine illusion, or any major figure from the Heavenly Realm who hasn't heard of the name Chu Mo?

Chu Mo did not hesitate much and told Si Tutu that if the Fu Family was willing, they could certainly become a branch of Piaomiao Palace.

Whether the Fu Family was willing or not was another matter, but Fu Feng was willing. And now he was the head of the Fu Family, so, a few days later, the Immortal Realm received shocking news. The Fu Family as a whole joined Piaomiao Palace, becoming a branch force of Piaomiao Palace!

Fu Feng, the head of the family, became a senior elder of Piaomiao Palace.

Afterwards, the date for establishing the sect at Piaomiao Palace was set. It was to be on the ninth day of the next month.

When that day arrived, Piaomiao Palace was overflowing with guests.

The vast square of Piaomiao Palace had already become overcrowded. Fu Feng, who had arrived early, was leading people in a desperate expansion effort!

Yes, a temporary expansion!

Otherwise, there would be no way to accommodate the endless stream of guests arriving.

Even the Demon Lord had to pinch his nose and, accompanied by Xiao Ya, attend to the guests; because Piaomiao Palace simply didn't have enough hands!

People from the Fu Family, the Si Family, and other early arrivals, including Chu Mo's "loyal allies" from the Elixir Sect, all sent out a large number of members to receive guests, but it was still somewhat overwhelming.

At first, the leaders of the surrounding minor sects and families were quite confident. Some who were even haughty on an ordinary day felt that paying respects was giving great honor to Piaomiao Palace and Chu Mo. However, they were soon terrified to discover that those responsible for reception were from the Fu Family, the Si Family, and disciples of behemoths like the Elixir Sect!

Any trace of their arrogance vanished in an instant. As for their haughtiness... who saw me being haughty? Don't you see how humble I am?

Following that, the arrivals of the influential figures began one after another.

It started with Li Zhongyuan, the head of the Illusion Sect, who brought several elders of his sect aboard a massive warship to descend upon this place. Chu Mo personally came out to greet them.

Li Zhongyuan engaged in amicable conversation with Chu Mo, treating him with a mix of warmth and considerable respect. This nearly stunned those smaller force leaders who had arrived early. But what surprised them even more was yet to come.

Soon, Yang Xuan, the sect leader of the Mystic Sect, arrived with his entourage.

Upon meeting Chu Mo, this leader of one of the top forces in the Immortal Realm actually offered Chu Mo the junior's salute to an elder, then addressed him as teacher!

"Student Yang Xuan, pays respects to Teacher!"

Silence!

Utter silence all around!

Many people knew that the three characters of Piaomiao Palace were written by Yang Xuan of the Mystic Sect, and they speculated in their hearts what price Chu Mo had paid to have such a prominent figure write them?

But the scene before them truly terrified them!

Teacher? Student? What was going on?

Even Li Zhongyuan from the Illusion Sect had his mouth agape in disbelief, watching the scene, unable to believe it as well.

Chu Mo, with a smile, took Yang Xuan by the arm, and said gently, "You are being too formal. There's no need for such ceremonies between us!"

"That won't do, the accomplished one is the teacher; it has nothing to do with age. In every way, you are my elder! If I dared to show you disrespect, I believe my ancestors would not spare me," said Yang Xuan with a solemn face.

The Mystic Sect was different from the Illusion Sect; their main house in the Heavenly Realm... Although still connected, had long taken a superior position and no longer regarded them with importance. Now, having obtained the long-lost supreme ancestral art from Chu Mo, it wouldn't take many years for them to directly surpass the Mystic Sect of the Heavenly Realm and once again become the true orthodox lineage!

Such a favor called for more than merely the gesture of a student to a teacher – even kneeling in the obeisance of a disciple to a master would not be too much!

Then, more and more important figures arrived, each aboard their warships. Any one of these individuals was a renowned and eminent presence in the Immortal Realm.

And they were not only gathered here but also presented lavish gifts.

Some who originally did not come fully prepared, after witnessing the attitudes of Yang Xuan, Li Zhongyuan, and the head of the Elixir Sect—these three top-notch leaders—towards Chu Mo, immediately used the transmission stones with sweat on their foreheads, ordering their subordinates to prepare generous gifts.

The establishment of Piaomiao Palace in the Immortal Realm, aside from the branches like the Fu Family and the later-joined Si Family, had only a dozen true members of the Piaomiao Palace. Yet they created an unprecedented miracle in the Immortal Realm!

The entire Immortal Realm was congratulating this small, nascent sect.

Chu Mo, a man who hadn't been in the Cultivation Realm for many years and was still young, seemed to possess a feeling of being the unspoken leader of the Immortal Realm at this moment.

It was as if with a wave of his arm, he could command the world.
