Chapter 551: Do you still need to teach people to cultivate immortality these days?
“There are only two people at the Tribulation Transcendence Stage—Radiant Enlightenment Daoist, the leader of the righteous path, and Skeletal Devil Venerable, the leader of the demonic path. The Destruction Alliance was created by Skeletal Devil Venerable. Could it be that you have Radiant Enlightenment Daoist inside you?”
“As for the Mahayana Stage, I’ve never even heard of it. Did you create that realm yourself?”
Qin Yi sneered, exposing their lies.
“There are far more than just two people at the Tribulation Transcendence Stage. Bai Hongtu, Yu Yin, Li Er—just the names I can remember are more than two.”
“Plus, I really do have a Mahayana Stage soul inside me. If you don’t believe me, look.”
Jiang Li seriously corrected Qin Yi’s mistakes, manifesting his Yang Spirit and showing it to her.
Qin Yi looked at the Yang Spirit that looked exactly like Jiang Li and believed his words even less.
Whose parasitic soul would look exactly like themselves?
Seeing that she didn’t believe Jiang Li, Radiant Enlightenment Daoist directly appeared, chuckling as he said, “Listen to the Wind Wanderer, it’s been a long time.”
The Unity Stage soul behind Qin Yi immediately stiffened upon seeing Radiant Enlightenment Daoist’s form, his lips trembling.
“Listen to the Wind pays respects to Senior Radiant Enlightenment!” Listen to the Wind Wanderer excitedly bowed with clasped hands upon seeing Radiant Enlightenment Daoist.
In Jingyu World, Radiant Enlightenment Daoist was an insurmountable mountain with absolute authority.
Although he failed to fight against the Earthly Immortal monster, everyone knew that killing an immortal with a mortal body was as difficult as climbing to heaven. Radiant Enlightenment Daoist’s failure was expected, and this didn’t affect his status among cultivators.
Qin Yi’s sneer froze, unsure how to react, until Listen to the Wind Wanderer transmitted a reminder for her to also pay respects.
“Qin Yi failed to recognize Mount Tai, please punish me, Senior Radiant Enlightenment.”
“I wouldn’t go so far as to trouble a junior like you.” Radiant Enlightenment Daoist waved his hand, showing no intention to punish.
Learning that this person was Radiant Enlightenment Daoist, both Qin Yi and Listen to the Wind Wanderer became extremely excited. The Mutual Aid Society had been fighting against the Destruction Alliance for years, but because the Destruction Alliance had a Tribulation Transcendence Stage soul overseeing them, the Mutual Aid Society had been unable to do anything about them. If Radiant Enlightenment Daoist were to oversee them, their Mutual Aid Society’s confidence would greatly increase.
“The Mutual Aid Society headquarters is right here. I’ll go ask the president to come welcome you.”
“You can just take me directly to your Mutual Aid Society headquarters.”
“Yes.”
The assassin and the soul inside him felt like committing suicide. What kind of luck was this today, actually running into two great experts like Listen to the Wind Wanderer and Radiant Enlightenment Daoist?
How could they possibly escape now?
Qin Yi called for a cleaning vehicle, threw the assassin onto it to be taken away, then called for the Mutual Aid Society’s special vehicle and invited Wen Quan and Jiang Li to get in.
“This gentleman is…” Listen to the Wind Wanderer didn’t know Jiang Li’s origins. Logically speaking, someone who could manifest their soul should be a cultivator from Jingyu World, but why didn’t he recognize him?
Could he be a reclusive cultivator?
“This is Fellow Daoist Jiang Li, from another world, with unfathomable strength.” Radiant Enlightenment Daoist introduced.
Listen to the Wind Wanderer’s pupils contracted, frightened by Radiant Enlightenment Daoist’s brief introduction. This explanation contained massive amounts of information that became more terrifying the more one thought about it.
Listen to the Wind Wanderer’s gaze toward Jiang Li completely changed.
“I’ve been dormant for a long time and haven’t formally met other cultivators. Could you explain what this Mutual Aid Society and Destruction Alliance are all about?”
“Yes.”
Listen to the Wind Wanderer fell into recollection: “After everyone was swept into the spatial turbulence, we all scattered. When I first arrived in this world, I discovered I couldn’t even move a single pebble, and people couldn’t detect me either.”
“After much research, I finally found a way to use my power—that was to choose someone to attach to.”
“It’s different from body snatching. Body snatching involves taking control of someone else’s body while they’re alive, while attachment means we attach to someone else’s body, which requires their consent. The difficulty is completely different. As for the principles behind it, we still don’t understand.”
Jiang Li interjected: “This is a restriction of the cycle of life and death rules. Life and death are separated—the dead cannot directly interfere with the living world. After you died, Fellow Daoist Radiant Enlightenment used a Forbidden Technique to force you all to temporarily avoid going to the Underworld, but this doesn’t change your deceased state. So to use soul power, there are multiple restrictions.”
Listen to the Wind Wanderer had never heard of any cycle of life and death rules, but since the other party had mysterious origins and spoke so convincingly, he mostly believed it.
“So I approached Little Qin and said I wanted to reside in her body, and in exchange, I could teach her how to cultivate immortality. Little Qin didn’t agree.”
“Later I said again that I wanted to teach her cultivation, and for teaching convenience, I needed to reside in her body. Little Qin agreed.”
“…” Radiant Enlightenment Daoist momentarily didn’t know how to respond.
These days, do you have to beg people to teach them cultivation?
“I still remember Little Qin saying that cultivation could help her unlock the seal on her left eye…”
“Master, you’re getting off topic. You should continue explaining how the Mutual Aid Society was established.” Qin Yi quickly redirected Listen to the Wind Wanderer’s attention.
When Listen to the Wind Wanderer found her, she was only fourteen—just the age for fantasies, thinking she was the chosen one, believing that Listen to the Wind Wanderer had taken notice of the calamitous left eye storing the power of ultimate darkness that could overturn the world order within her, which was why he wanted to teach her cultivation, with the initiative on her side.
The most direct evidence was that her left eye had better vision than her right eye.
A few years later, she learned it was because her left eye had been wearing a sealed eyepatch the whole time.
Now she wished she could lock those embarrassing memories in her mind and never think of them again.
Too shameful.
“The reason I chose Little Qin was because I saw her talent was very suitable for cultivating my techniques. Little Qin didn’t disappoint my expectations either—within just a few years, she cultivated to the Foundation Establishment stage.”
“Early Foundation Establishment, with a solid foundation—truly not bad. It’s just that recently she’s been too eager to reach mid Foundation Establishment, cultivating somewhat impetuously, and still needs to consolidate.” Jiang Li identified the problem at a glance and casually commented.
Qin Yi glanced sideways, remembering Jiang Li’s words. Even Listen to the Wind Wanderer hadn’t noticed that she had been too impatient when breaking through to mid Foundation Establishment.
This senior truly was an expert.
Listen to the Wind Wanderer continued: “While Little Qin was cultivating, the two of us were also searching for fellow practitioners who had also come to this world.”
“Although I’m not as accomplished as Senior Radiant Enlightenment, I’m still a Unity Stage cultivator and have some ability to rally others. Gradually, many fellow practitioners chose to follow us, and we formed a small group.”
“The relationship between me and Little Qin was also the choice of most fellow practitioners.”
“Later we encountered other small groups, and the small groups merged with each other, forming the initial Mutual Aid Society.”
“The nine of us at Unity Stage are the core strength of the Mutual Aid Society.”
“Later, a fellow demon practitioner suggested that since our Mutual Aid Society is a secret organization, we should use code names to address each other.”
“He suggested using tail numbers as code names, like One Tail, Two Tails, Three Tails, Four Tails… Nine Tails. If Senior Radiant Enlightenment had been present at the time, he would have been Ten Tails.”
“He also suggested that the people we attach to, after cultivation, would become pillars of humanity, so we might as well call them Human Pillars.”
“You agreed to that?”
“We unanimously refused and joined forces to beat him up. Later we felt we had beaten him too severely, so to compensate him, we let the person he attached to become the president.”
“This proposer wouldn’t be Fellow Daoist Howling Moon, would he?”
“It was that dog… We’ve arrived at headquarters.”
