Longevity, starting from being a chicken raising servant-Chapter 1442 - 55 Yuanci Turmoil_3
Chapter 1442: Chapter 55 Yuanci Turmoil_3
Qu Shentong seemed somewhat displeased as he spoke:
“The Taoist Field is completed, given the millennial friendship between our two sects, if Wanxiang Sect has a part in it, Longevity Sect must have a part too. Once the Taoist Field is established, if it is not suppressed by a treasure like the Undying Treasure Tree, how can it stand firm for long? This is a mutually beneficial matter, why does Taoist Brother hesitate?”
Hearing this, An Changshou couldn’t help but show a bitter smile:
“What Taoist Brother Qu said is exactly what I’ve been thinking, but… Longevity Sect is ultimately different from your esteemed sect, there are too many elders within, and people prefer stability and are reluctant to take risks. Moreover, this Undying Treasure Tree… it involves too much, it’s not something that can be explained in a few words, the most crucial point is…”
He paused for a moment, then continued:
“Now that everyone in the sect knows that Zhongsheng Continent can accommodate Divinity Transformation cultivators… although it’s only the Early Stage of Divinity Transformation, for the vast majority of people, that’s already sufficient. After all, how many can cultivate to the Middle Stage or Late Stage of Divinity Transformation or even Void Refining?”
“A lifespan of four to five thousand years, plus the shelter of the Undying Treasure Tree, living for six thousand years is not impossible.”
“What most people in the sect desire is just so.”
Hearing the words of An Changshou, Qu Shentong fell silent for a short while, and finally he sighed:
“Who knows if today’s Fenglin Continent wouldn’t be tomorrow’s Zhongsheng Continent?”
An Changshou couldn’t help but remain silent too.
He then spoke with a sense of helplessness:
“Please allow me some more time to persuade them, Taoist Brother Qu.”
Qu Shentong sighed again, without responding.
The plan for the establishment of the Taoist Field was actually shelved when it was first proposed within the sect.
Even Jiang Yi, the one who proposed it, was not optimistic about it.
After all, a Taoist Field that could only be established with at least one thousand Dao Domains was simply too unrealistic.
Qu Shentong also thought the same.
Only Deputy Sect Master Wang Ba seemed to have taken it to heart secretly,
and had mentioned it to him several times.
Despite not being optimistic about the plan, Qu Shentong saw potential in this martial nephew of his generation later, and after several discussions, he eventually agreed to it.
The matter of Dao Domains, he was helpless and lacked the capability to resolve.
But he thought of another solution, which was to pull Longevity Sect into the partnership.
Longevity Sect has a large number of members and ceaseless emergence of high-level cultivators with profound backgrounds.
Especially using the sect treasure, the Undying Treasure Tree, could indeed serve as the divine tool to suppress the Taoist Field.
Unfortunately, even the previous Sect Master Shao had not been able to accomplish this, and he too ultimately failed.
“No wonder my sect once wanted to leave this realm, with such camaraderie between our two sects, Longevity Sect did not accompany us…”
Qu Shentong sighed inwardly.
But everyone has their own aspirations, and they cannot be forced.
Thinking of this, he lost his mood, and after bidding farewell to An Changshou, he went off to conduct inspections.

Several days later.
A figure clad in a black robe, dusty and weary, flew from the dim sea and landed on the summit of Fengyu Mountain, very close to the coast.
There were already several figures waiting on the summit.
As soon as he landed, the figure laughed:
“Gentlemen, I hope Qu has not arrived too late?”
“Not at all, we have just arrived as well.”
The leading young cultivator replied cheerily.
It was An Changshou, Xiong Zhaojing, and others.
Having not met for a few days, everyone looked slightly fatigued, but they still managed to exchange pleasantries with spirited effort.
Then An Changshou solemnly said:
“My sect’s guarded region is now nearly half isolated. Along the way, other than encountering some Demonic Beasts causing trouble in the sea, which I decapitated, everything went smoothly. In no more than half a month, it should be completely isolated. May I know how things stand with you all?”
The others exchanged glances.
Qu Shentong immediately said: “The isolation process on my side is slightly slower, but given half a month, it should suffice… Lin Yi hasn’t arrived yet, let’s wait for him to ask about the situations on the southern and western peripheries.”
Xiong Zhaojing and Qin Shengyong also responded consecutively:
“The northern part of the Eightfold Sea is also fairly manageable, encountering some Demonic Beasts, all of whom I captured. The only issue is the vast spread of Yuanci, which will take us at least a month to completely clear.”
“The West Sea Country side, we had already sent people to block the borders, it shouldn’t take more than half a month.”
Hearing this, Qu Shentong’s mind stirred, and he abruptly said:
“Brother Xiong, those Demonic Beasts you captured, Qu has some interest in them, perhaps we can chat about it later.”
Xiong Zhaojing was momentarily stunned, but without overthinking, he nodded.
An Changshou, however, took a deeper look at Qu Shentong.
Thinking about those Class IV Spirit Beasts, he seemed contemplative.
The four then briefly summarized their updates.
Qu Shentong soon frowned:
“Wait, have none of you seen the incarnation of our Deputy Sect Master?”
The rest were instantly alarmed.
Daoist Yuanci was the core of this operation, and nothing could go wrong.
An Changshou immediately said seriously:
“Our sects and your esteemed sect have surrounded most of the Eightfold Sea, if Daoist Yuanci were to come out, he would definitely encounter us, unless he has not returned yet.”
Xiong Zhaojing reassured:
“Taoist Brother Qu, there’s no need to worry. Daoist Yuanci’s realm is no less than ours, and he is proficient in the Yuanci Path. This place is like home to him, even ordinary Divinity Transformation cultivators here can’t trouble him. Moreover, if he encountered any mishap, with his cultivation base, he would have certainly alerted us. The fact that there has been no movement at all, he’s likely still investigating…”
Qu Shentong’s expression slightly eased, just about to speak, when suddenly a red-robed figure rapidly flew over from a distance.
Faintly, several figures were also flying in from behind.
“It’s Hall Master Lin from your esteemed sect…”
Qin Shengyong spoke.
But he quickly showed a perplexed expression:
“Eh, why is Shengzhao here too?”
Qu Shentong’s gaze swept over, indeed it was Hall Master Lin Yi.
