"That must be true."
Receiving such deference from everyone, Xu Daoquan had no time to gloat. On the contrary, he felt somewhat apprehensive and urged, "Everyone, the Great Immortal is likely to return soon. Although it was a matter of urgency that allowed you to enter and seek refuge, it was, after all, without the Great Immortal's consent. Therefore, you should all leave quickly."
"Yes, yes, yes, we should leave quickly."
The crowd also reacted, realizing that it would be bad if the Great Immortal blamed them. That towering figure alone made them tremble.
Soon, most of the people had left, leaving only those from Xu Daoquan's own sect.
"Old Ancestor, we will also leave."
An old man said.
Xu Daoquan nodded and added, "Go back and tally the losses first. I will return after I have met with the Immortal Elder."
"Yes."
Then, the old man led his sect members away.
Lu Xin shook his head and, after everyone had left, revealed himself.
"Immortal, Immortal Elder."
Lu Xin's sudden appearance clearly startled Xu Daoquan, causing him to stammer a bit. He quickly said, "Please forgive me, Immortal Elder. I…"
As he spoke, he wanted to kneel down, but he discovered that a great force was preventing him from kneeling.
"Alright," Lu Xin said, using a thought to straighten his body. "I won't blame you for such a small matter."
"Thank you, Immortal Elder."
Hearing this, Xu Daoquan breathed a sigh of relief.
Lu Xin originally intended to give him some benefits and send him away, but after thinking about it, he said, "Seeing that you have reached the mid-stage of the Fusion Realm, do you have any immortal cultivation methods?"
Xu Daoquan was stunned for a moment, then quickly understood the meaning of these words. He hurriedly suppressed the excitement in his heart and replied, "Reporting to the Immortal Elder, this junior's sect is just a small, insignificant sect, so we do not have any methods for achieving immortality."
"Is that so?"
Lu Xin placed a hand on the other party's shoulder and quickly determined his aptitude. It did not meet the requirements for accepting a disciple under the [Bond] condition.
So, he gave him a Earth Immortal-level cultivation method suitable for him, then gave him some cultivation resources, and then told him to go back and set up spirit tablets and statues.
"Have you remembered everything I said?"
Xu Daoquan was still in a state of extreme excitement. Hearing Lu Xin's words, he felt as if he were dreaming and nodded repeatedly like a chick pecking at rice.
"Immortal Elder, rest assured, this junior has remembered everything."
"Since that's the case, then go. By the way, if you want to seek an audience in the future, you can come directly."
Lu Xin gave another instruction.
"Yes," Xu Daoquan said happily as he left.
After Lu Xin waited for the others to leave, he wandered around and, after finding nothing wrong, released Mingluan Immortal Palace and the Painting Slave.
After giving some instructions, he planned to officially begin his seclusion.
As for whether to break through the realm first or refine a spiritual treasure, he would have to see how things went.
Time passed, second by second, for more than a year.
During this time, White Radiance Star, which had suffered a devastating wind disaster, had basically returned to normal.
Of course, the dead could not be resurrected, and the lost property could not be recovered.
Many people had to start over.
And after this disaster, some of those who had the ability naturally moved away from this star.
Those who did not have the ability naturally had no choice but to continue to stay here.
This was a scene that would appear after every wind disaster in the past.
However, this time there was a slight difference.
That was, many Guanyu (Taoist temples) with statues of Lu Xin had suddenly appeared in various places on White Radiance Star.
These were all spontaneous.
On the one hand, it was to express gratitude and commemorate Lu Xin's contributions;
On the other hand, it was naturally because they learned that Lu Xin had actually settled down on their White Radiance Star.
So, they built Guanyu to worship him, hoping to continue to receive his protection.
"This incense divine path is really peculiar. No wonder there is a rumor that 'as long as there is enough incense, one can improve one's realm by one level a day.' It really doesn't take the usual path."
Inside the Mingluan Immortal Palace, Lu Xin had already become a mid-stage True Immortal.
Although he had accumulated more than ten years of [Breathing] passive, and he had traveled all over the Holy Spirit Immortal Domain in recent years, setting up Daotong (Taoist lineages) whenever he had the opportunity.
And he had accepted nominal disciples along the way, and collected poisons along the way.
With these four things going on at the same time, he had accumulated a lot of mana.
But he was still more than 300 million short of breaking through to the mid-stage.
He didn't expect that saving White Radiance Star this time would make up for it.
"It seems that [Venerable of the Divine Path] is still the most effective way to use mana. No, there is also [Convergence of All Paths], otherwise there will be two forces in my body."
Lu Xin glanced at the system panel, and the data had changed again:
【Host: Lu Xin】
【Lifespan: 301 years / 9 Yuanhui】
【Body Refinement Realm: Earth Immortal Body】
【Qi Refinement Realm: Mid-stage True Immortal (13 million / billion)】
【Cultivation Method: Chaos Sword Art】
【Convertible Immortal Spiritual Mana: 3,600 (continuously increasing)】
【Mana generated by Bond: Scroll down to view V】
【Distribution of Incense Sources: Scroll down to view V】
【Passive Skills: Breathing, Divine Concealment, Concentration, Heart of the Sword, Heart of Self, Bond, Poison Devouring Body, Lord of Myriad Treasures, Body of Breaking Restrictions, Heart of Alertness, Chaos of Cause and Effect, Convergence of All Paths, Unyielding, Body of Anti-Curse, Venerable of the Divine Path, etc.】
Needless to say, the lifespan has increased by two Yuanhui.
To break through to the late stage of True Immortal, it becomes necessary to have billion Immortal Spiritual Mana.
The time to break through will naturally also greatly increase.
"Next, I will have to rely on you."
Lu Xin took out the Bailan Fruit he had exchanged from the Divine Wood Sect Master and planned to refine it into a pill to break through to the late stage of True Immortal in one fell swoop.
As for the auxiliary medicines for refining the pill, he had already exchanged them with the Eastern Pole Immortal Weng.
But now was not the time. Someone was visiting outside, so he had to meet them first.
"Master, do you know what name they gave to the Guanyu they built for you outside?"
As soon as Lu Xin came out, the Painting Slave hugged the Little White Sable, the Little Vermilion Bird stood on her shoulder, and she leaned over.
"Have you been out?" Lu Xin saw that the hair on her forehead was disheveled, and knew that she had taken the Little Vermilion Bird out to play wildly again.
"Is it not allowed?" The Painting Slave raised her head playfully.
"Of course it is allowed, but you have to pay attention to safety, especially the Little Vermilion Bird. Exposing its form will attract a lot of ill intentions."
Lu Xin instructed.
"Okay, okay," the Painting Slave nodded, and then said, "Master, guess quickly."
Lu Xin rubbed her head, "Speak quickly, I still have to go out to meet guests."
"Okay," the Painting Slave leaned closer, "They gave you the name Cave True Guanzhu (Abbot of the Cave Truth Temple), Wind-Riding True Lord."
"True Lord?" Lu Xin remembered that only the Holy Spirit Palace Master was called True Lord.
With such a title, he didn't know if he could bear it.
But it didn't matter. If there were any troubles he couldn't solve, he would just run away.
Anyway, he didn't need the incense to continue.
Without thinking too much, he went to the front to meet the guests.
This time, the visitors were Qian Xingzi and his party, including a group of Human Immortals.
They had some status, and came to pay their respects naturally to thank Lu Xin in person for his great kindness and to offer gifts.
Lu Xin naturally did not neglect them, and after treating them well, he sent them away.
Only Qian Xingzi and the other three remained. Leaving them behind was naturally also a kind reminder.
Because the demons who had appeared on Iron Profound Star and chased after Du Zhiyan last time had run out of the White Bone Secret Land on White Radiance Star.
It wasn't that he had any means to resist the Yin Xuan Qi, but that he was accidentally swept to the periphery by a spatial storm.
And it was not just one who was swept in.
So, he reminded them to keep an eye out.
The four naturally thanked him again, and then bid farewell and left.
After Lu Xin gave some more instructions, he went into seclusion again.
He planned to refine pills to improve to the late stage of True Immortal, and then refine artifacts.
