Even within a second-tier immortal sect, such an achievement wouldn’t receive excessive attention. Of course, one could still attain the status of an elder, but they wouldn’t be provided with abundant resources. Following Jin’s celebration, Li Su visited the Water Moon Sect, where his influence was prevalent. Many talented female cultivators above the Foundation Establishment stage sought his favor.
However, during regular times, he would not see many female cultivators within the Water Moon Sect, as most of them were secluded in meditation and cultivation, focused on their progress. Li Su’s daughter, Li Shuixin, informed him that her mother, Liu Xinshui, and aunt, Liu Xinyue, were also in seclusion, benefiting greatly from the Sunflower Water Pearl and the rare treasures from the sea. They were rapidly advancing with the aid of Li Su’s alchemical elixirs.
Liu Xinshui had reached the pinnacle of the Core Formation stage and was now diligently working to break through to the Nascent Soul stage. Meanwhile, Liu Xinshui had reached the later stages of Core Formation and was focused on reaching the pinnacle of that stage. Li Su didn’t disturb them and spent time with the concubines, not in seclusion, before leaving.
The sect leader remained in seclusion for over fifty years, which was relatively short for someone in the Nascent Soul stage. It was rare for individuals like Li Su to reach Nascent Soul and didn’t need to practice diligently, instead studying various esoteric cultivation techniques. After receiving a message from Mystic Moon, who had been away for several decades, Li Su learned she was on the verge of reaching the pinnacle of the Nascent Soul stage, thanks to the resources she had obtained.
For You Yue(Mystic Moon), reaching the Nascent Soul pinnacle seemed imminent, but the aspiration to break through to the Void Refinement stage presented a different challenge. Overcoming cultivation bottlenecks could be daunting, and the following tribulation was a formidable obstacle.
The strand of immortal energy Li Su had passed to the sect leader would certainly aid her in facing the tribulation. Li Su planned to use formations to assist Mystic Moon when the time came, understanding that there was no rush, as breaking through to the Void Refinement stage would take time.
After a few more days, Li Su received an invitation. The invitation was delivered by a disciple of the Returning Origin Sect and read, “Peak Master Dieyun’s Ten Thousand-Year Grand Celebration?” This invitation was associated with Peak Master Dieyun of the Returning Origin Sect. The invitation announced Peak Master Dieyun’s Ten Thousand-Year Grand Celebration, scheduled three months later.
Peak Master Dieyun was exceptionally formidable. Despite holding the position of a peak master within the Returning Origin Sect, her strength surpassed that of the sect masters of the Tianluo Sect and the head of the Xuantian Academy. According to the information Li Su had received from the head of the Xuantian Academy, Peak Master Dieyun had already reached the zenith of Void Refinement. For her Ten Thousand-Year Grand Celebration, the Returning Origin Sect was planning an exceptionally grand event and had extended invitations to numerous cultivators to attend. However, not all cultivators were eligible to receive invitations. In the entire Northern Territory, only Li Su and Azure Sea received these invitations.
“Aunt, I’m entrusting the Flying Immortal Sect to you. Here’s a new formation disc. If you notice anything unusual while I’m away, please secure the Flying Immortal Sect entirely,” Li Su handed a new formation disc to his sect leader’s aunt. He believed this trip to the Central Plains would not be lengthy and should pose no significant issues. This new formation disc for the Flying Immortal Sect resulted from Li Su’s further refinement of the sect’s grand formation. Additionally, he had also created a new formation disc for the Li family.
The Li family’s residence was situated within the blessed land of Mangkang Mountain and was home to numerous Nascent Soul cultivators. Ziyan, Qing Hong, and the other Nascent Soul cultivators were among them considered the elite of the Li family. Li Su had Nascent Soul-level concubines from various places, including those he had accepted from the Tianluo Sect and the Xuantian Academy. Qin Xiaoyue and the others were currently at the Golden Core stage, but they were on the verge of advancing to Nascent Soul. Among them, Luo Yuxin was the most powerful, having reached the pinnacle of the Nascent Soul stage.
After ensuring everything was in order at home, Li Su prepared enough gifts and embarked on his journey. As for Azure Sea, Li Su had already instructed Azure Yao to use a messaging stone to notify him. Azure Sea was likely to go directly to the Returning Origin Sect. His flying vessel continued its journey towards the south, heading for the Central Plains.
Over the years, Li Su had traveled to the Western and Eastern regions, but this was his first time in the Central Plains. Compared to the Western and Eastern regions, the Central Plains were larger and more distant. Between the Central Plains and the Northern Territory, there were many challenging terrains and vast mountain ranges spanning thousands of miles. This region was characterized by countless massive mountains, making travel between the Central Plains and the Northern Territory inconvenient. Cultivators below the Foundation Establishment pinnacle wouldn’t even consider making such a journey.
For Li Su, however, it was no problem at all. His flying vessel boasted exceptional speed, allowing him to cover great distances swiftly. In just over a dozen days, the vast land of the Central Plains came into view. Several thousand miles away, on top of a towering mountain peak, there stood an immortal city. This city served as a temporary settlement for cultivators from the Central Plains when venturing into the extensive mountain ranges spanning countless miles to hunt and eradicate demonic beasts.
It was also the northernmost immortal city in the Central Plains. Li Su guided his flying vessel towards the immortal city, intending to seek directions. The arrival of his magnificent flying vessel drew the attention of several cultivators due to its remarkable appearance. In no time, the flying vessel entered the city.
“Directly flying into the immortal city, this is undoubtedly a Nascent Soul senior,” someone said upon seeing Li Su’s approach. “Yeah, I wonder how his trip went,” a couple of cultivators couldn’t help but comment upon seeing Li Su’s arrival.
In the Central Plains, where there was more activity, the likelihood of low-level cultivators encountering Nascent Soul-stage cultivators was relatively high. “The Returning Origin Sect is at the center of the Central Plains. Senior, if you head towards south from here, you’ll reach it. The Returning Origin Sect controls nine major spiritual veins, and its territory is vast,” one of the cultivators explained to Li Su. The Foundation Establishment cultivator spoke respectfully, his voice tinged with awe.
Even though Li Su hadn’t consciously displayed any aura, the innate majesty from his presence still made the Foundation Establishment cultivator feel immense pressure. Once he obtained the directions he needed, Li Su resumed his journey. As he departed, a cultivator who had ventured to the Northern Territory in past years spotted him from a distance and exclaimed, “Isn’t that Li Su, the esteemed senior from the Northern Territory? Has he come to the Central Plains?”
