In general, Dongfang Mumu is quite sensible and indeed fulfills her duty of protecting Wu Wang.

After being ordered by Wu Wang not to bother the person who destroyed the sect, Dongfang Mumu became a bit bored. Fortunately, Lin Suqing was there to accompany her, making their days enjoyable.

Wu Wang asked Lin Suqing to spend more time with this little Heavenly Immortal, hoping that Lin Suqing could receive more guidance from a good teacher.

Never would they have expected...

Lin Suqing actually managed to win over this peak Heavenly Immortal, who had once glimpsed the Transcendent realm!

Ah, the unique charm of Auntie Lin.

"Mumu, do you like this dress?"

"Wow! Um, it's just average. You can leave it here, I'll try it on when I have time."

"Mumu, come and eat the spirit fruit steamed cake. This is the recipe taught by the young master."

"Suqing, leave more for me! How is this made? Is it roasted with spiritual fire? Oh, it's so soft, it's all mine!"

In just a few days, Lin Suqing had already become quite close to this little Heavenly Immortal.

Every time Wu Wang saw Dongfang Mumu circling around Lin Suqing, he felt as if he had suddenly traveled through time and arrived at a stage of a happy family life.

To be honest, Lin Suqing seemed to undergo subtle changes every day.

In the morning sunlight, she wore loose robes, her long hair flowing, humming a tune while delicately cooking and brewing fragrant tea. It was a peaceful and contented life, seemingly without any desires or conflicts.

And that little Heavenly Immortal beside Lin Suqing, who kept saying "we" and "we", also gave Wu Wang an inexplicable sense of motivation.

Of course, Lin Suqing was not the only one taking care of Dongfang Mumu; she also received many benefits.

For example...

"Mumu, how do I learn this technique?"

"You're so silly, little Suqing. No wonder you've reached the age of becoming an Immortal but still haven't formed your Elemental Infant! I won't explain the details, just sit down and I'll directly pass on my insights to you."

"Okay, thank you, Master."

Or...

"This Phoenix Fragrance Technique feels so difficult."

"Let me see... There, you got it! Come here, let me teach you. It's like pouring enlightenment directly into your mind!"

Wu Wang:...

Is this cheating? Can one really cultivate like this?

The young master began to worry that Lin Suqing would surpass him in cultivation, and then this guy would show off.

Deep down, he silently gave Lin Suqing and Dongfang Mumu two titles. Lin Suqing was called "Over Fifty Years Old" and Dongfang Mumu was called "Nearly Ten Thousand Years Old".

Looking at them now, Wu Wang instantly felt relieved and no longer burdened by the pressure he had before.

Youth is an advantage!

And he should focus on cultivation.

No matter how many experts there were around him, if his own strength was insufficient, he would probably face a calamity when dealing with the Ten Calamities Palace in the future.

Moreover, Wu Wang also had his own pursuits!

The power of the Star God's bloodline was indeed formidable, but it was similar to the Star-Praying Technique, both of which were "borrowed". His long lifespan now came from his cultivation in the Elemental Infant realm.

Which was more important, it was clear at a glance.

Among essence, energy, and spirit, Wu Wang's weakness at the moment was "energy". He must focus on cultivating in the path of immortality.

Five years to reach the Leaping Spirit realm! Ten years to reach the True Immortal realm!

Well, he shouldn't aim too high. He should be down-to-earth and set reasonable goals for himself.

Search "pawread dot com" for the original.

Ten years to reach the mid-stage of the Leaping Spirit realm!

In this way, Wu Wang carefully comprehended the Dao of Fire, immersing himself in the flames for more than two months, when another guest arrived at the sect.

This guest was a middle-aged female Immortal, with a cultivation level in the True Immortal realm.

She handed over her name card outside the sect's formation and stated that she wanted to see the sect master. After several rounds of "interviews" with the elders, she finally stood in front of Wu Wang.

The female Immortal wore a white jade ring on her thumb and gently turned it halfway in front of Wu Wang.

Wu Wang immediately understood that this female Immortal was an envoy sent by the Four Seas Pavilion. He asked the elders to leave and told them that there was nothing important here.

After the elders left, the female Immortal bowed and said, "Under the orders of the Pavilion Master, I have brought the items needed by Sect Master Wu Wang."

With that, she took off the jade ring from her hand and pushed it towards Wu Wang with her spiritual power.

Usually, Immortals do not allow strangers to approach them. "Pushing objects with spiritual power" is as important as "voice transmission" in the realm of human social etiquette.

Wu Wang took it and glanced at it, unable to hide his surprise.

So many?

Inside the wooden box, which was three feet high, five feet wide, and five feet long, there were actually six of them!

When he opened the box, he found that two of them were sets of memory jade talismans!

How many cultivation techniques were there? There must be hundreds of them, right? Were there so many people in the Human Realm who had walked the path of the stars?

"Sect Master Wu Wang," the female Immortal cleared her throat and bowed with her hands in front of her, preparing to give a long speech.

She said, "The ring contains the star cultivation methods that the Pavilion Master ordered us to transcribe. It took us some time to transcribe them.

In addition to the cultivation techniques, there are also insights into the path of star cultivation left by cultivators who reached the peak of the Heavenly Immortal realm.

The Pavilion Master repeatedly reminded me that Sect Master Wu Wang should only use them as a reference and not try to learn their paths.

The ancient Emperor Fuxi once said: The Dao is divided into upper and lower realms.

The upper realm is the principle of heaven and earth, which does not change with the comprehension of living beings. It is born within heaven and earth and nurtures the innate gods and spirits.

The lower realm is the path of self-comprehension by living beings. Even if it is purely cultivating the path of the stars or the path of water, it is only a close approximation to the path of the stars and water within heaven and earth.

The path of self-comprehension originates from oneself and merges with heaven and earth. Therefore, the path that each person walks is different.

If one wants to achieve something in the cultivation of immortality, one must understand three levels.

First, seeing mountains as mountains and seeing clouds as clouds.

Second, seeing mountains not as mountains and seeing clouds not as clouds.Third, mountains are still mountains, clouds are still clouds.

This level is also the principle of being a person, as all methods are interconnected and all paths lead to one.

Walking one's own path to the extreme does not necessarily mean that one cannot surpass others and stand shoulder to shoulder with the gods."

After the female immortal finished speaking, she bowed to Wu Wang.

Wu Wang listened attentively and couldn't help but fall into contemplation. After a moment, he stood up and bowed to the female immortal.

"I will always remember the teachings of Senior Feng Ye. Please convey my gratitude to Senior on my behalf."

"Of course..."

The female immortal murmured softly, "I wonder if Shishu Mu is safe here? She used to be taken care of by me. This time, she was ordered to come and destroy the sect, and I am really worried about her."

Wu Wang smiled, "They are on the second floor. You can go and see for yourself."

"Thank you, Zongzhu Wu Wang."

The female immortal replied softly, and Lin Suqing had already bowed slightly at the staircase.

Without delay, Wu Wang took out a crystal ball and opened a barrier. He sat cross-legged inside and immersed his mind in the starry vortex of his Qi Sea.

Mountains are still mountains, mountains are not mountains, mountains are still mountains.

The Dao is the Dao, the Dao is not the Dao, the Dao is also the Dao.

Is this the path that Senior Sui Ren walked in the past?

The more he pondered, the more he could feel the essence within it. The path of cultivation suddenly became clear.

After a short while, the starry Qi cluster in Wu Wang's body began to flicker rhythmically. He explored and wandered within it, as if he had entered a world of his own, filled with joy.

This feeling of exhilaration is more than a hundred times better than obtaining the blood of the Evil God!

On the second floor, the female immortal followed Lin Suqing to a wooden door and glanced inside.

Inside, Dongfang Mumu was wearing a loose skirt, propping her feet on the bed, completely absorbed in playing with a square block that was bigger than her head. The block was covered with various colored squares.

There were also several plates of preserved fruits and spirit fruits placed beside Dongfang Mumu. Her chubby face...

had become even chubbier.

The female immortal opened her mouth, feeling both gratified and a little disappointed. She had already arrived here, but Shishu Mu hadn't noticed her presence. It was obvious that all her attention was focused on the block.

Lin Suqing transmitted her voice, "Shishu Mu is very talented. According to Young Master, she has already reached the eleventh stage. She truly deserves to be the high disciple of the Sect Master.

But her calculations are still lacking."

"She refines pills based on her feelings," the female immortal smiled, "adding a little of this and a little of that, and then haphazardly adding fire, she can refine pills above the sixth grade.

Well, since Shishu Mu is doing well, I won't disturb her."

Lin Suqing nodded gently and left quietly with the female immortal, who couldn't help but turn her head three times before finally leaving the attic.

In the room, Dongfang Mumu's lips curled slightly as she muttered softly, "So talkative."

...

Three months later.

Elder Hall of the destroyed sect, the newly built conference hall.

Wu Wang sat confidently in the main seat, exuding an aura that he had only obtained after breaking through his realm. He held a jade slip made of jade pieces in his hand and read it with great interest.

The understanding of the Great Dao of the stars by the senior who wrote this jade slip is still shallow.

The complexity of the Dao rhyme on the Star God's body is not on the same level as the ultimate realm envisioned by the senior.

Half a month ago, when Wu Wang paid his regular visit to his mother, he suddenly discovered a shortcut that no one else had in his cultivation of the Great Dao of the stars.

—With his mother's help, Wu Wang could visualize the Star God at any time and anywhere!

Experiencing the Great Dao of the stars from the body of the Star God is much more convenient than the imagination of the cultivators in the Human Realm facing the starry sky, right?

Of course, it cannot be said that the insights of the senior are useless. Many of his ideas have enlightened Wu Wang and are highly valuable for reference.

"Zongzhu, have you made another breakthrough?" a senior elder laughed.

Ji Mo carefully sensed Wu Wang's aura and widened his eyes, "Are you about to reach the Leaping Spirit stage?"

"Almost," Wu Wang squinted and smiled, "I heard that Protector Ji Mo spent two days and two nights in a large formation last month before returning?"

"Hehehe."

Ji Mo laughed awkwardly and explained, "I went to watch a play, I went to watch a play, don't think too much. I don't have a storage magic treasure."

"Hmm?"

Wu Wang smiled and didn't say anything more, not paying much attention to this guy.

Seeing that the other elders had arrived, Wu Wang raised his hand to signal the Great Elder to start the meeting.

The Great Elder spoke slowly, "The main purpose of summoning everyone this time is for two things.

The first is that the Mysterious Female Sect has invited our Zongzhu to their disciple-receiving ceremony in the main hall. Let's discuss whether we should go and how to go.

The second is about our sect accepting disciples. This time, we will follow the old rules and go to the Southern Immortal-Demon Meeting one year later to recruit five hundred disciples with excellent aptitude.

Alright, feel free to speak your minds."

The elders were at a loss for words, sitting there not knowing what to say.

Ji Mo cleared his throat and smiled, "Has the Zongzhu decided to go to the Mysterious Female Sect?"

Wu Wang said, "It's not a bad idea to go and have a look, to experience the true style of a real major sect. In the future, we can catch up."

"Please take me with you," Ji Mo's eyes were sincere.

"No problem!"

Wu Wang firmly agreed, and the two blinked at each other. The Elder Miao, who was between them, raised her hand and rubbed her jade arm.

Elder Miao said, "When Zongzhu goes to the Mysterious Female Sect this time, do you want it to be more grand or low-key?"

"It should be low-key," Wu Wang said seriously, "We are still just a medium-sized demonic sect. The aftermath of the previous battle between the immortals and demons is still lingering, not to mention that the front line is still at war. It would be too extravagant for us to be too ostentatious."

An elder said, "What should we do if the Ten Calamities Palace targets our sect leader again?"

The Great Elder also said, "We should bring more experts with us on the journey, even if they don't enter the Mysterious Female Sect."

Wu Wang tapped the table with his finger and said, "Please ask Elder Mao to come back and accompany me on this trip. With Ji Mo, Dongfang Mumu, and Invincible, it will be enough."

" Sect Leader," Miao Cuijiao said, "I think if you personally visit the Mysterious Female Sect this time, it should be high-profile, not too low-key."

"Oh? Elder Miao, what's your opinion?"

"For one thing, we can't hide from the Ten Calamities Palace, and there's no need to hide."

Elder Miao chuckled:

"The fact that they are targeting you shows that you are a genius who can threaten the Ten Calamities God in the future. Isn't that our sect's selling point for recruiting disciples?

Just relying on honest development, even if we have a lot of spirit stones, lower-ranked sects cannot attract as many outstanding disciples as higher-ranked sects.

If we are attacked on the way and spread the news, we can not only embarrass the Mysterious Female Sect but also gain some reputation for recruiting disciples."

The elders nodded.

Wu Wang said, "I still don't want us to suffer unnecessary losses because of an attack by the Ten Calamities Palace."

An elder immediately said, "Sect Leader, it is our honor to fight and sacrifice for the Ten Calamities Palace."

"We are unable to go to the Northern Territory to kill enemies due to the rules of the Renhuang Pavilion. If we can fight against the Ten Calamities Palace, the biggest threat to our Human Realm, how could the people in our sect not agree?"

"Sect Leader, this is an opportunity that other sects can't get!"

Wu Wang:...

Looking at the passionate eyes of the elders, they almost wanted to tie him to a flagpole!

Wu Wang said, "Elder Miao, continue. What is the second reason?"

"The second reason is the sect's ranking. Showing off is the best way to improve the sect's ranking.

The third reason is those women from the Mysterious Female Sect. I know them very well."

Elder Miao rolled her eyes and said, "If you are low-key and restrained, they won't even notice who you are. Maybe you won't even be able to enter the sect!"

"That's right, the Mysterious Female Sect is like that."

The Great Elder also said, "Sect Leader, you don't have to worry too much about being too ostentatious. The female disciples of the Mysterious Female Sect have married into various major forces in the Human Realm. Every time they recruit disciples, it is a gathering of talents.

Even if we want to show off and go all out, we may not be as eye-catching as others.

With experts from the Renhuang Pavilion in the sect, Sect Leader, just bring more experts and let them see the strength of our sect."

Wu Wang pondered for a moment and looked at the elders.

"What do you all think?"

"We will follow the Sect Leader's orders!"

"Very well," Wu Wang stood up, his eyes shining, and his figure became even more upright!

He loudly ordered:

"Prepare a generous gift, prepare two large ships. One hundred experts at the Immortal Realm, thirty experts at the True Immortal Realm, and three experts at the Heavenly Immortal Realm will accompany me to pay a visit to the Mysterious Female Sect!"

The elders all agreed in unison.

Ji Mo said, "I will go call Lin Qi. As the holder of the Yan Emperor's decree, won't he be able to attract attention from the Ten Calamities Palace?"

The eyes of the demonic cultivators lit up.

Lin Suqing, who was in closed-door cultivation, inexplicably sneezed and was shaken out of her state of enlightenment.

...

Three days later.

The drums of the Mie Sect's Rift Valley resounded, and two large ships floated in the air, slowly heading northwest.

On the ships, there were pavilions and towers, magnificent and splendid. Female cultivators invited from various towns were busy playing music and dancing, or carrying fruits and drinks, shuttling through various halls.

The demonic cultivators drank and enjoyed themselves, having a great time.

Many disciples of the Mie Sect also wanted to go and see the world. Most of them were disciples of the Black Desire Sect and mixed in on the ships.

Unfortunately, after careful consideration, Wu Wang firmly refused Elder Miao's request to go together.

If Elder Miao went to the Mysterious Female Sect, and with just a seductive glance, the disciples of the Mysterious Female Sect would be all over him at the disciple-recruiting ceremony...

That would be a big problem!

On the top floor of the six-story tower, Wu Wang sat at a small table with Ji Mo and Lin Qi. Lin Suqing was playing chess with Dongfang Mumu beside them.

Lin Qi muttered, "Why do I have to go? I'm in the middle of my cultivation."

Ji Mo smiled and said, "Many of the Mysterious Female Sect's disciples have married into prominent families. Don't you want to take a look?"

"Hmph," Lin Qi said discontentedly, "I'm no longer interested in women. Now I just want to comprehend the Great Dao and cultivate the supreme technique. One day, I will slay the Evil God with my sword!"

Wu Wang said in a warm voice, "Even in cultivation, you should balance work and rest. Look at me, I haven't been cultivating much in the past six months, and I'm about to reach the Leaping Spirit Realm."

With a chuckle, Lin Suqing covered her mouth and laughed.

Someone, who knows who, sits there every day, pulling their hair, never putting down their book, and constantly talking about profound things.

Wu Wang glared at Lin Suqing, and she quickly lowered her head to play chess.

Dongfang Mumu glared back and stared at Wu Wang, saying, "Hey, be careful. Suqing is ours now!"

Wu Wang took out a newly compiled exercise book from his sleeve.

"Hmph!"

Dongfang Mumu quickly looked down at the chessboard and muttered, "It's fine for you to use our people, but why be so fierce."

Ji Mo and Lin Qi glanced at each other, not daring to ask or say anything more.

Ji Mo raised his wine cup and smiled, "I wish us a smooth journey this time. Let's visit the Mysterious Female Sect and then return to cultivate in peace."

"Cheers!"

"Teacher, do as you please. I and Ji Mo will drink it all!"

The three of them raised their cups and drank together, full of enthusiasm. They laughed a few times and were about to put down their cups.

Just at this moment!The large ship suddenly trembled a few times, hovering in the air.

From the buildings below, there were a few light gasps. Some people had lost their balance and knocked over objects.

Everyone's spiritual and immortal senses turned towards the bow of the ship, where they saw a transparent light wall appearing in front of the ship, like the barrier of a large array.

Ji Mo's mouth twitched slightly, puzzled, "We haven't even left the sect for a hundred miles, how could this..."

"Master, I'll go take a look!"

"Lin Qi, don't act rashly."

Wu Wang looked down and saw figures flying out of a ravine below, which was not much different from the destroyed sect. Their cultivation levels were not weak, and there were even a few Heavenly Immortal realm demon cultivators.

Was this out of jealousy?

Unfortunately, Mao Aowu was still on his way due to his busy official duties. It was a pity that he couldn't use the prestige of Renhuang Pavilion to bully others.

"Protector Ji, you go take a look."

"It's a small matter."

Ji Mo agreed, took out a folding fan and waved it in his hand, calmly floating towards the bow of the ship.

Two accompanying Heavenly Immortal realm elders also appeared, together with Ji Mo, looking at the demons blocking the way ahead.

After sensing the cultivation levels of the opponents, Ji Mo revealed a mature and steady smile at the corner of his mouth. He calmly stepped back half a step, standing behind the two elders, and said loudly:

"Mountains may not move, but rivers do. The sky may not move, but clouds do.

Fellow Daoists, you are blocking our way. I wonder what your intentions are. Why not, let's draw a line?"
