Chapter 421 Even Immortal Kings Gossip

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Time flew by.

In the Mustard Domain, Qin Chuan spent ten years like a day. He cultivated for 10 years in one go and then traveled around.

Moving around was actually just watching the sparring between the freaks.

In the situation where capabilities were almost equally matched, sparring could indeed increase one’s strength.

In addition to spectating the fight, Qin Chuan also paid attention to Sun Luote.

Ever since their last conversation, Sun Luote had not come looking for Qin Chuan again.

Qin Chuan was quite curious about him.

The floating island where Sun Luote was on was very far away from them, and it would take several minutes to fly there. It was about five times the distance between Earth and the Moon.

Qin Chuan did not look for him.

Instead of cultivating, Sun Luote played in the woods on the island.

When he got tired of playing, he would lie on a rock or hang from a tree to rest.

The impression he gave Qin Chuan was that he had the mind of a child.

However, since he was here, it meant that his talent and strength were top-notch among all the disciples of the Luo Ding Sect.

He couldn’t have gotten in through connections like me, could he?

Qin Chuan doubted it.

At the same time, the matter of the Demon race’s challenge had spread like wildfire in the Immortal realm; everyone knew about it.

There were only two days left until the day of the challenge.

The Luo Ding Sect, the first stop of the challenge, received a lot of attention.

All the major factions were speculating about which freaks the Luo Ding Sect would send out.

As a top-notch existence among second-tier factions, they had many freaks. It was definitely going to be an exciting match.

However, there were also people who were worried that the Demon race would successfully defeat the Luo Ding Sect.

According to rumors, the reason they had lost terribly the last time was that their race’s top-notch geniuses were at the most important point of their cultivation and couldn’t participate in the challenge.

Now that these monstrous freaks had come out of seclusion, they must be very confident that they would be able to take down the human race.

If the Luo Ding Sect was a first-tier faction, no one would be too worried. However, they were only a second-tier faction. Even if they were at the peak of the second-tier factions, they were still a far cry from the

first-tier factions.

The elders were gathered in the main hall, and all of them were Immortal Kings.

The Supreme Venerable Elder stood on a tall platform with a middle-aged man sitting behind him.

The middle-aged man was dressed in a white robe and had a refined appearance. His gaze was gentle, and he held a folding fan in his hand. His words and actions exuded elegance.

Based on his temperament and appearance, this person should be very easy-going.

The man was the current Sect Master of the Luo Ding Sect, Xu Longfei.

Xu Longfei was the fifth Sect Master of the Luo Ding Sect.

Xu Longfei might not have been the strongest among the Sect Masters of the Luo Ding Sect, but his achievements were the highest aside from the first Sect Master.

Under Xu Longfei’s management, the Luo Ding Sect advanced from a second-tier faction to a peak second-tier faction in less than an era.

Among the major powers of the Immortal realm, it was rare for one to develop so quickly.

The reason why Xu Longfei was able to advance the Luo Ding Sect so quickly was mainly that he had good relationships with everyone.

Out of the 60 something Immortal Kings in the Luo Ding Sect, half had been poached from other factions by him. More importantly, they were all very willing and did not give any conditions.

This was enough to illustrate Xu Longfei’s charisma; he was definitely the ceiling when it came to socializing.

“How are the disciples cultivating in the Mustard Domain, Elder?” asked Xu Longfei.

The Supreme Venerable Elder bowed and said, “Sect Master, our disciples are all working hard on their cultivation and have made great progress.”

Xu Longfei nodded and played with the fan in his hand. “Tomorrow is the day of the challenge. It must have been tough for them to cultivate inside for so long.

“Elder, get them to come out and have a good rest later. Adjust their mental states well so that they can deal with the challenge tomorrow. ”

“Yes.”

“Oh! By the way, how’s Qin Xiaochuan’s cultivation going?” asked Xu Longfei suddenly.

The Supreme Venerable Elder was taken aback, as were the other elders.

Everyone knew that Qin Xiaochuan had only been able to cultivate in the Mustard Domain because of Lan Lang.

Given his individual strength, he was definitely not qualified.

To his surprise, however, the Sect Master was actually concerned about this backdoor entrant.

The Supreme Venerable Elder said, “Qin Xiaochuan is quite hard working. He’s already advanced from the first class of Mahayana to the fifth class.”

The elders were immediately stunned.

The further one progressed in the realm of cultivation, the harder it became.

Take the Mahayana Realm as an example—even with outstanding talent, it would still take more than a hundred years to advance a class.

But in just over a hundred years, he had advanced from the first class of Mahayana to the fifth class.

At this terrifying rate, he could even get on the Chosen Roll of the Immortal realm.

This left the elders in disbelief.

The Supreme Venerable Elder could tell that everyone was confused, so he continued. “Sect Master, after some careful observation, I realized that Qin Chuan managed to progress so quickly because he consumed

spirit pills.”

The elders were instantly relieved.

“So he took spirit pills. No wonder he’s improving so quickly.”

“He’s from the Lower realm after all. How could he be more talented than the geniuses of the Immortal realm?”

“Such rapid advancement would certainly affect his foundation. I wonder why he’s in such a hurry to increase his cultivation realm.”

“What else? He’s purely advancing his realm.”

“My guess is that Lan Lang already predicted that the sect would open up the Mustard Domain in response to the Demons’ challenge. That’s why he recommended Qin Chuan to take advantage of the fact that the

Mustard Domain flows differently than the outside world.

“This way, he can increase his cultivation level in a short period of time. When it’s his turn to fight in the challenge, he can directly admit defeat. There won’t be any losses at all.”

“I don’t think that’s possible. Based on my understanding of Lan Lang, he wouldn’t do such a thing.

“Don’t forget that for the sake of the Luo Ding Sect back then, he had charged into the Demon race alone and killed an Immortal King.”

The majority of the elders’ opinions wavered.

However, one of the elders argued, “Elder Gu, you have to understand that people change. Do you dare to say that Lan Lang is still the same as before?”

“| heard from some sources that Lan Lang originally wanted to take Qin Xiaochuan as his disciple, but for some reason, they ended up as sworn brothers.

“What do you guys think is going on here?” interjected an elder, winking.

“Now is not the time to gossip, Elder Cong.

“What we should be thinking about the most is how to deal with the challenge tomorrow. ”

The Supreme Venerable Elder said to Xu Longfei after listening to the discussions, “Sect Master, I don’t know much about Qin Xiaochuan.

“However, since Lan Lang had recommended him, he must be something more to him.

“Therefore, my plan is to have Qin Xiaochuan be the first one to fight in the Demon race’s challenge tomorrow.”

Xu Longfei shook his head. “Supreme Venerable Elder, your plan is sound, but the rules are different this time.”

“What’s changed?” asked the Supreme Venerable Elder, frowning.

“I learned from others that the matchups will be carried out using computer programs.”

“What? This isn’t fair to us,” said the Supreme Venerable Elder, clearly agitated.

Xu Longfei said, “What can we do? If we don’t accept the challenge, doesn’t that mean we don’t have the ability to deal with them.

“There are so many people watching us right now, and they want us to make a fool out of ourselves.

“Anyway, whatever the case, as long as the requests of the Demons aren’t too much, we can only agree.”

The Supreme Venerable Elder sighed helplessly. “That’s all we can do.”

“Oh! Also, I got a list of Demons who are here for the challenge from someone I know.”

Xu Longfei patted the armrest of his chair, and a virtual projection immediately appeared in the hall..
