Chapter 359 - 151: A Auspicious Sign, Contemplation of God’s Law (8k combined chapter seeking monthly tickets)
Immortal City.
Time flows leisurely with a year passing in a blink of an eye. Nevertheless, for the Immortal City, everything remains unchanged.
In the Sky City above, cultivators arc still striving hard, pushing forward their cultivation, for better elixirs, for stronger opportunities. After all, everyone wants to aim further.
In Dao Valley Pavilion on the eastern side of the Immortal City serves the finest Spirit Tea, which can purify one’s foundation, elevating one’s state. After prolonged daily consumption of Spirit Tea, it may play a significant role in overcoming one’s cultivation bottleneck.
However, a cup of Spirit Tea costs a hundred low-grade spirit stones, which equates to one mid-grade spirit stone, and such luxury is not affordable by many.
There’s also the Bodhi Array of the Wind and Thunder Hall, which can condense one’s spirituality. Paired with the Gathering Spirit Array, it provides excellent cultivation results — it’s rumoured that the strongest pairing of such formations might equate five days’ worth of cultivation in just a single day. However, this aspect also faces a similar problem: renting the Bodhi Array for a day isn’t cheap, and even the most basic formation requires thirty low-grade spirit stones as a starting price. If one hopes to achieve the effect of five days of cultivation, the cost is even higher – how many can afford such a price?
What’s the difference between this Immortal City and the Secular world?
There’s no difference, except for the fact that the Immortal City is filled with cultivators with long lifespans and intense power. Yet, these circumstances are more suitable for cultivators of higher realms.
The stronger the strength, the greater the profit. Most of the world’s population are struggling in the abyss, striving upwards, seeking for a sliver of opportunity.
At this moment, Liang Sheng sits in Dao Valley Pavilion, savouring Spirit Tea, looking relaxed. He has been in the Immortal City for a year now and feels not the slightest unease, even more carefree than he was in the Desolate Domain
Sect.
There are factions here and conflicts, just like in the Secular world, yet, the definitive factor is one’s own power.
In the Immortal City, any conspiracies are additive, and not decisive factors. Just like the Left and Right Envoys, both of them are more like rivals because neither has a clear upper hand over the other.
If they really want to determine the winner, it would have to be through someone making a breakthrough first and then overpowering the other. Otherwise, they can only trip each other up, making the other side upset. After all, City Lord Zhen Yuan of Longevity Immortal City would let them handle most matters, paying little attention to worldly affairs.
Regardless of whether it is Qingfeng or Bright Moon, neither would act recklessly. Neither of them harbours any rebellious thoughts under the firm hand of City Lord Zhen Yuan’s mighty power.
This is what differentiates it the most from the mortal world, the supremacy of strength.
Apart from the City Lord Mansion, which suppresses the Immortal City, there are various cultivation families attached to it and there are some scattered sects and factions present.
After all, once a cultivator’s strength grows, their thoughts will change. As long as you have the ability, whatever you want to do is possible.
As for Liang Sheng, such a situation is good news. After all, with his current mid-Nascent Soul stage level and backing from Qingfeng Left Envoy, as long as there are no accidents, his days can be very comfortable.
Therefore, coming to the Immortal City is not a bad choice. At least in comparison to the Desolate Regions, under the rich Spiritual Energy here, Liang Sheng’s cultivation speed has increased several times over. Not to mention, there is the divine Spirit Tea, albeit the cost is in Spirit Stones.
He has many spirit stones at his disposal, and he even dares to say that even in the Immortal City, there are no Nascent Soul Masters wealthier than him!
Moreover, in more than a year’s time, Liang Sheng has handled all the troublemakers in the Chen family with his superb skills unbeknownst to anyone.
An element of the troublemakers was discharged to the boundless “Lower City” beneath Immortal City. These are the less problematic individuals.
The reason is simple: let them develop spiritual fields to contribute to the family. As beneficiaries residing in the family and enjoying the “benefits”, of course, they will not object.
As for the domineering troublemakers that are likely to cause major issues, Liang Sheng’s method is incredibly simple: to make them disappear.
It’s normal for cultivators to perish. Unfortunately, the Chen family has suffered several unfortunate incidents during this year. Many family juniors fell into madness, either their meridians got severed, or they lost control on the spot – either way, they lost their lives in the process.
Oh, these were all the elites of my Chen family. It’s a pity they left too early. What can Liang Sheng do? He can only sigh in sorrow, saying their luck was insufficient.
Who could have thought this was all Liang Sheng’s doing? With his skills, he can deceive even a Divinity Transformation Stage Great Power if they’re not careful enough.
However, after more than a year’s time, as the head of the Chen Family, it can be said that Liang Sheng has been living leisurely.
What satisfies him most in Immortal City is the presence of shared female cultivators of the Giving Bodhisattva, although Liang Sheng has not yet had the opportunity to see the exact situation.
The Immortal City has existed for countless eras. Over such a long period, there will always be female cultivators who, for the sake of talcing a shortcut, cannot resist the temptation in this secular-like system, and thus choose to take another path.
The situation is simple, in front of cultivation, men and women are equal. It’s extremely hard for a female cultivator to gather three mid-grade spirit stones in a month by painstakingly creating talismans or other auxiliary means.
However, by becoming a shared female cultivator of the Giving Bodhisattva, they can potentially earn three mid-grade spirit stones in one night – the difference is unimaginably large.
Therefore, there will always be female cultivators who want to fight their way up the ladder. Since that’s the case, someone will accept these unique cultivation paths.
After all, why should others’ one-year effort be equivalent to her decades of hard work? In face of cultivation, who can say who is nobler?
Moreover, it’s not that there’s a lack of dual cultivation techniques in the Immortal City.. Which one of the shared female cultivators of the Giving Bodhisattva isn’t proficient in the dual cultivation method?
