Yellow Court Daoist-Chapter 727 - 653: One-Line Sky Passage! [Thanks to ’CzLB’ for the generous Alliance Hierarch reward!]_3

An Earth Immortal presides.

Ten True Immortals.

This number isn't large, but it already marks the most prosperous period in the history of Sky-reaching Gorge.

Seventy thousand years ago, when Grandmaster Qin first achieved Ascension, Sky-reaching Gorge had only a mere two True Immortals, three including Grandmaster Qin.

Grandmaster Qin, with his astonishing talent and beauty, cultivated to the status of Earth Immortal in twenty thousand years.

After taking his place in Sky-reaching Gorge, he recruited the chieftains of the War Roar Clan, Gu Jin, and the Black Armor Clan, Meng Ba, both True Immortals, and personally taught his three disciples, Han Guanhai, Ting Fengzi, and Han Ling'er, guiding them to True Immortal status. Thus, he turned Sky-reaching Gorge into a major force of renown and status within both Little Dragon Tiger Realm and the entirety of Nine Nether Domain.

Ten True Immortals might not seem significant in the Earth Immortal World, or even in Nanhua Realm.

Look at the Taoshan Four Sects.

Which of them doesn't boast a foundation of one to two hundred True Immortals?

But within the Little Dragon Tiger Realm,

Not just Sky-reaching Gorge,

But also those with an Earth Immortal presiding, such as Danxia Mountain, Seven Extremes Mountain, Ningbi Cliff Meihua Cave, Nine Sun Ridge Fire God Palace, Little Cold Mountain Ice and Snow Divine Palace, Chi Lian Mountain, Lantuo Mountain Wuxiang Zen Temple, and others.

Some are even less prominent than Sky-reaching Gorge.

Among them, Seven Extremes Mountain and Chi Lian Mountain are the most notable.

The former, under the tutelage of Zi Ling Immortal, has only Su Xin Immortal as a True Immortal. While Chi Lian Mountain's Black Dragon True Monarch is a loner, without a single True Immortal disciple.

Recollecting the intelligence gathered by the Eight Desolate Avatar in Little Dragon Tiger Realm and listening to Han Ling'er's explanation, Lu Qingfeng gained an understanding of the power of Sky-reaching Gorge.

Following Han Ling'er further inside,

Along the way,

Han Ling'er provided Lu Qingfeng with a general understanding of Sky-reaching Gorge.

He also pointed out various mountains and streams along the path.

Together, they climbed over Tianhua Peak, traveled through White Dragon Gully and Azure Dragon Creek, until finally stopping before the majestic Sky-reaching Waterfall.

The Sky-reaching Waterfall, like a dragon emerging from the sea, its momentum as brilliant as a rainbow.

Even from afar,

Water droplets splashed, and the cool breeze greeted the face.

And there, beside the waterfall, a Daoist in a Seven Star Eight Diagrams Daoist Robe was sitting cross-legged.

Han Ling'er quickly approached the Daoist and bowed, stating, "I pay my respects to Master."

Lu Qingfeng also looked towards the Daoist,

Recognizing him—

This was the very Daoist who had appeared and bestowed treasures when he had broken through the twenty-seventh layer of Array Mountain in Three Mountains and Nine Waters.

The gifted Nine Palace Divine Sword was still with Lu Qingfeng.

Lu Qingfeng hurriedly approached and bowed, respectfully saying, "Lu Qingfeng pays his respects to Grandmaster Qin."

Games and reality,

Ultimately they are two parallel lines.

In the game, he is the esteemed Qingjing Saint, the Capturing God General, and a newly risen Earth Immortal; his Dao ability might not be weaker than the one before him.

His Divine Skills, wealth, and background are leagues beyond Grandmaster Qin.

But in reality,

He is but a newly promoted True Immortal, still relying on Grandmaster Qin's protection.

He wouldn't dare to disrespect.

"Good!"

Grandmaster Qin gave a light flick of his sleeve, looking at Lu Qingfeng with a smile, nodding his head in appreciation, "When you broke through the twenty-seventh layer of Array Mountain that year, this poor Daoist knew you would be extraordinary. Yet I didn't expect that, in just a mere four hundred years, you would traverse the Primordial Spirit Realm and approach the Great Mahayana Immortal Path."

Grandmaster Qin spoke, his praise evident in his words.

Achieving True Immortal status in twelve hundred years, he had surpassed not only the three carefully selected disciples but also the many prodigies within the Spirit Domain.

If Sky-reaching Gorge could keep such a man,

Given time, they might well add another Earth Immortal Master!

Grandmaster Qin was extremely pleased in his heart, warmly speaking to Lu Qingfeng with a smile, "Would you be willing to acknowledge me as your master and join the lineage of Sky-reaching Gorge?"

"Grandmaster honors me,"

"Disciple Lu Qingfeng pays his respects to Master!"

Lu Qingfeng, hearing this, was overjoyed and eagerly bowed to Grandmaster Qin.

From that moment on, he formally joined the ranks of Sky-reaching Gorge.
