Cultivating with Top Enlightenment

Chapter 725: Chapter 311: An Old Acquaintance of the Profound Lady Sect

Sikong Lan wanted to use a borrowed knife to kill, and the first to latch onto was the Jade Light Immortal Sect.

So, when he encountered the great army of the Jade Light Immortal Sect, he approached them with a humble attitude.

When he saw that the leader was Qi Keqing, Sikong Lan’s smile deepened.

Sikong Lan had heard of Qi Keqing’s fame long ago; in the Jade Light Immortal Sect, this person was a legend!

Born into obscurity, it was said she came from an unknown small village.

Her childhood was extremely poor, and when she was sixteen, her hometown was invaded by enemy soldiers, who burned, killed, and looted with impunity.

To protect her hometown, Qi Keqing stood up and killed ten enemy soldiers.

Then she led the villagers to drive out the roaming enemy soldiers from the village.

Later, Qi Keqing’s village was attacked by an army and eventually could not escape its fate of destruction.

But Qi Keqing escaped; she somehow obtained half a spell from the cultivation path and grew stronger along the way.

Then, Qi Keqing alone set out to attack the enemy nation that destroyed her village.

She slew countless enemy soldiers but eventually attracted cultivators from the enemy army.

Qi Keqing was outmatched and was captured by them.

They wanted to force Qi Keqing into slavery, but she swore to die rather than comply and was imprisoned by them.

Unwilling to be manipulated by them, a spiritual light shone on her, allowing her to reverse-engineer the cultivation method.

Her beautiful hair turned white overnight, and her cultivation skyrocketed, allowing her to annihilate her captors.

The legend of a female demon began circulating in that country, causing a great stir.

Later, Qi Keqing directly stormed the enemy’s imperial capital, exterminated all the royal relatives, killed all the military officers, and completely obliterated the enemy nation.

The Emperor of her own country wanted to use her glory to annex the conquered enemy nation.

But Qi Keqing refused, leaving only the words: ”There shall be no more wars in the mortal world!”

The mortal Emperor did not understand her intent, but dared not defy her decree.

A hundred years later, Qi Keqing became a True Inheritor of the Jade Light Immortal Sect.

She began to promote her ideas, but even within the Jade Light Immortal Sect, many opposed her.

After all, many cultivators were supported by the mortal dynasties, and the interests involved were significant.

But Qi Keqing never gave up, forging ahead, cutting down one obstacle after another in her path for years.

From then on, in the Fuyao Realm, there were no more mortal dynasties; all mortals enjoyed peace, and no cultivators could interfere in the mortal world!

Because of Qi Keqing’s renown, countless mortal geniuses flowed into the Jade Light Immortal Sect, ensuring the sect was never short of talent and maintained its dominant position in the Fuyao Realm.

Later, Qi Keqing became an Elder of the Jade Light Immortal Sect.

Her disciples were often those geniuses without background or influence.

Sikong Lan ran through the legendary deeds of Qi Keqing in his mind; for such a female cultivator whose talent and character were in no way inferior to male cultivators, Sikong Lan felt he could resonate with her.

Therefore, Sikong Lan said to Qi Keqing: ”Because of Senior Sister Qi’s presence, the Fuyao Realm now enjoys peace in the mortal world. Though I am from the Cyan Profound Immortal Sect, I have great admiration for Senior Sister Qi.”

Qi Keqing raised her eyes to look at him and said lightly, ”Get to the point!”

Sikong Lan’s face showed slight embarrassment, and he said, ”My Ancestor once instructed me that, upon entering the warfare realm, I must find Senior Sister Qi and follow her lead.”

As soon as these words were spoken, many from the Cyan Profound Immortal Sect behind him looked confused.

Did the Ancestor really say that? Why didn’t they know?

They couldn’t help but doubt, what exactly did Sikong Lan intend to do?

Yet, constrained by his strength and his background from the same lineage as the Ancestor, they voiced no objections.

The Cyan Profound Immortal Sect was not as open-minded as the Jade Light Immortal Sect; all decisions centered around the Ancestor and his family, and others had to comply without dissent!

Ahead, in the army of the Jade Light Immortal Sect, many also cast surprised looks at Sikong Lan.

If it were truly as he said, why didn’t the Cyan Profound Immortal Sect come directly to Jade Light Immortal Sect upon entering the warfare realm?

Qi Keqing’s gaze was cold, entirely enveloping Sikong Lan.

Sikong Lan, though an Extreme Venerable, inexplicably felt he couldn’t measure up to this woman under Qi Keqing’s gaze.

He could only attribute it to the Jade Light Immortal Sect’s superior cultivation methods.

Qi Keqing examined Sikong Lan closely.

Sikong Lan had fair skin and handsome looks; when he spoke, his face was full of spring warmth, and he had a good appearance.

This look of his attracted many female cultivators in the room to secretly cast glances his way, sparking jealousy among many male cultivators.

But Qi Keqing was not among them and said plainly, ”Is this true?”

Sikong Lan immediately cupped his hands and said:

”Of course! Not only the army of the Cyan Profound Immortal Sect, but I believe even the armies from other Spirit Domains should be led by someone as just as Senior Sister Qi, to secure more nodes for the Mountain and Sea Realm within the warfare domain.”

This statement indeed made Qi Keqing’s expression a little more favorable.

Throughout her life, Qi Keqing defied the odds, doing what ordinary cultivators dared not do.

Coming to this warfare realm, she did have the intention to command all the sect armies from the Mountain and Sea Realm within the realm.

She also firmly believed she could lead the army to secure more nodes for the Mountain and Sea Realm.

The army behind her consisted of seventy percent of the cultivators in the Fuyao Realm.

The remaining thirty percent had pledged allegiance to the Cyan Profound Immortal Sect, and these were almost all newly rising sects.

Whereas that seventy percent were well-established sects, highly recognizing the Jade Light Immortal Sect.

At present, seeing Qi Keqing seemingly being persuaded by Sikong Lan, many didn’t dare to say anything on the surface but secretly communicated through sound transmission.
