Omnipotent Overlord

Chapter 278: Instant Apprenticeship



Chapter 278: Instant Apprenticeship

In the Investiture of the Gods world, Gold Immortals were at every turn, but the strongest were four people. Highest Elder Lord, Primeval Lord of Heaven, Lord of the Numinous Treasure(Grandmaster of Heaven), and their master, Ancestor of the Great Balance.

Ancestor of the Great Balance rarely walked in public, and Highest Elder Lord was an expert in alchemy but never took disciples. As for Primeval Lord of Heaven, his Enlightened Parish only took in human disciples. Unlike Grandmaster of Heaven, who didnt discriminate. 

Among the four, Ancestor of the Great Balance was the best there ever was in skills. But when it came to teaching, Grandmaster of Heaven reigned.

Ye Xiaolu had the rare Emulsion Spirit Body and Su Daji was a nine-tailed fox. If Li Mo wanted to be in Primeval Lord of Heavens apprenticeship, it wouldve been fundamentally impossible. Not to mention he wanted two rare ingredients. While Primeval Lord of Heaven only had one of them, Grandmaster of Heaven had both.

Who dares barge into the Green Water Palace?

Before the main gate, a boy of only 13 summers stopped the trio.

Li Mo bowed, Ive come for apprenticeship.

Go in.

The boy gestured.

Ye Xiaolu opened her mouth.

Li Mo smiled, This is the difference between Jie Taoism and Enlightened Parish.

Ye Xiaolu said, But wasnt Jie Taoism the antagonist in the Investiture of the Gods?

Jie Taoism has many people, both good and bad. But it isnt evil as a whole. Only their standpoint is wrong. A modern man like you and I will think of it as picking the wrong side.

They walked unperturbed all the way to Green Water Palace.

They saw a Daoist surrounded by an immortal aura and exuding a dazzling light.

Daoist Opulence.

Grandmaster of Heavens first disciple. When the master was either wandering the world or in seclusion, it was this man that looked after the Jie Taoism sect.

Have you come to join? Master has been away these days. I will register you as simple disciple, and you shall proceed with the ceremony when master return.

Daoist Opulence only asked their name to sign them up.

It all went so fast even Ye Xiaolu was incredulous.

Just like that? No questioning, no nothing? What about status, background? They take you in with no questions asked?

The trio received their badges from Daoist Opulence and could now live on Penglai Island. It was such a huge island that besides the Green Water Palace, Grandmaster of Heavens residence, it also housed the tens of thousands of disciples without a problem.

Isnt Jie Taoism perhaps too plain?

Ye Xiaolu felt as if taking disciples in was a mere formality for this sect.

That is your mentality as a modern man speaking. Think about it, with Grandmaster of Heavens power, would he fear any spies?

Besides Ancestor of the Great Balance, Grandmaster of Heaven doesnt fear anyone. So the more disciples the better.

In the later part of Investiture of the Gods, Highest Elder Lord and Primeval Lord of Heaven joined hands but even they couldnt capture Grandmaster of Heaven. Ancestor of the Great Balance had to intervene in person for Grandmaster of Heaven to be secured. This went to show Grandmaster of Heaven was above the other two.

I guess. But this Investiture of the Gods world is getting worse by the generation. Since every generation cant threaten the one before. Ye Xiaolu realized.

The trio reached the housing area and, thanks to their badges, each got a house.

This world sure is better. You dont need to buy a house, they just give it to you. Ye Xiaolu sighed.

Every morning we are to meditate for two hours at the circle of enlightenment and work on our given tasks until seven in the evening. The rest is at out leisure.

Reaching the circle of enlightenment, they saw thousands of people cultivating.

Jie Taoism welcomed everyone with open hands, be it human or other kind of beastie, whether good or evil. Once you got your name on the roster, youd have to fulfill your duties and cultivate at the circle of enlightenment. Among the people here, humans were the minority, while demons and spirits predominated. 

A minotaur cupped his hands to Su Daji, I am Boundless Mountains Demon King Ox. May I be presumptuous to ask the nine-tailed fairy to be my cultivation partner?

Su Daji shook her head with a smile. The minotaur was persistent as he asked more questions, until Su Daji pointed at Li Mo.

The minotaur left downcast.

He was just the prologue of an endless strings of demons vying for Su Daji. All came in hopes of dual cultivation, only to leave crushed and disappointed.

Human soul, I am Dusk Mountains King Howler and of great wealth. My strength may be average, but among the third generation disciples, I am still quite known. If you would be willing to be my partner, I am willing to give you everything that I have.

A gnoll approached Ye Xiaolu.

Go f-

Only allowed on

Ye Xiaolu started but held it in.

Was that how one went about getting a partner for cultivation?

When in Rome and all that, she supposed. But these demons werent someones Ye Xiaolu could mess with.

Since regaining her vessel, Ye Xiaolus temper was tempered, somewhat. At least she didnt blow a gasket outright, like usual.

Human soul, I am the strongest gnoll among my race and the crown prince. Come with me and you will enjoy riches beyond your imagining. Your choice must be most obvious.

Glancing at Li Mo close by, Ye Xiaolu swiveled and smiled, Gnoll crown prince, tell me, does your gnoll race have any bitches? 

The gnoll crown prince nodded, Of course, and many too. Three are even present in this circle.

See that human youth with me? He just loves bitches, cant get enough of them. So heres a thought, why dont you go along and give him some bitches?

If I do this, will you cultivate with me?

Ill think about it.

Alright.

The gnoll prince was psyched as he went to fetch bitches.

Ye Xiaolu grinned from ear to ear.

She soon saw the gnoll crown prince bring three gnoll bitches to Li Mo.

The gnoll crown prince beat around the bush, but Li Mo got the message crystal clear.

Brother gnoll, Im very sorry. I already have a Dao companion. All I can do is thank you for your kind gesture.

Eh? You have? Who?

Her.

Li Mo pointed at Ye Xiaolu.

Ye Xiaolus heart sank and avoided his gaze.

Her? Then why did she made me look for bitches for you?

She lacks discipline brother, thats why. She wants me to find another partner all so she could have an affair.

The gnoll asked, Affair? Buddy, you better be careful.

I know, thats why I am definitely going to teach her some manner.

The gnoll gave a thumbs up, Nice, then I wont keep you any longer.

The gnoll crown prince left.

Ye Xiaolu stepped over, Dont mind it. I was only playing around. The people here are so amusing. I keep teasing them yet they never get angry.

How could they?

Li Mo drew Ye Xiaolu closer.

W-what are you doing?

Oh, nothing.

Li Mo straightened her hair and pinched her nose.

Bam!

Then he gave her tushie a nice resounding slap, making Ye Xiaolu jump in fright.

Well be sleeping together tonight.

Ahh~? No, no, no, I was only playing around.

But I wasnt~.

I truly was!

And well still be sleeping.

Li Mo held a struggling Ye Xiaolu close as they left the circle of enlightenment.
