Entry: I Secretly Cultivate Immortality in the Martial Arts World

251: Chapter 251 Yuan Sect, the Primordial Chaos Supreme Saint - Imperial Heaven Venerable!Saint Realm.

Beneath an ancient tree that had grown for countless millennia, a man in white sat cross-legged.

He appeared to be in his early thirties, with upright features, a steady temperament, and pure Qi swirling around him.

Three feet above his head hovered a Taiji Diagram, where black and white flowed and Yin and Yang gave birth to each other, faintly resonating with the rhythm of the Heavenly Dao.

This person was the second Disciple of the Sect Leader of the Yuan Sect in the Saint Realm, known by the Daoist title Yuan Qingzi.

Speaking of the Yuan Sect, it was one of the three major sects of the Saint Realm.

The other two sects were the Tong Sect and the Ren Sect.

The three sects stood side by side, each with different doctrines.

The Tong Sect advocated for teaching without discrimination; whether human, demon, ghost, or monster, born from moisture or eggs, as long as they had a heart for the Dao, they could join the sect.

The Ren Sect primarily cultivated a heart of benevolence to help the world, focusing on all living beings, and thus gained the support of many Loose Cultivators.

The Yuan Sect, however, presented a completely different atmosphere.

The core of the Yuan Sect’s doctrine was the four words: ’Conforming to Heavenly Mandate’.

What is Heavenly Mandate? It is the fixed number of the heavens and earth’s operations, the trajectory of the Great Dao’s evolution, which cannot be violated or reversed.

The Yuan Sect believed that all things in the world have roots; those with high roots have noble destinies, while those with low roots have lowly destinies. This is the Heavenly Dao and cannot be changed.

Therefore, the Yuan Sect placed extreme importance on origins when accepting Disciples, not admitting those without deep Innate roots and not taking those without noble Bloodlines.

In the eyes of the Yuan Sect, those born from moisture or eggs, those with fur and horns, were simply unworthy of cultivating the Dao. Their attempts to defy heaven and change their fate were nothing more than a joke.

As the Yuan Sect Disciples often said: ”If the roots are not right, cultivation is in vain.”

As the second Disciple of the Sect Leader, Yuan Qingzi naturally understood the essence of this.

He had always been arrogant, looking down most on those Cultivators of lowly birth, often killing them without hesitation.

Just like at this moment.

Yuan Qingzi’s brow was furrowed. He had just felt a stir in his heart, sensing that the power of the Restriction he had casually placed inside that little Ying Dragon years ago had actually been completely wiped away.

”Which insignificant wretch dares to ruin my business?”

After speaking, he closed his eyes and pinched his fingers to perform a deduction, trying to calculate who had acted.

However, after deducing for a long time, it was a complete blank.

The heavenly secrets were in Chaos, and Karma was hard to find, as if the person who acted was not in the river of fate at all.

Yuan Qingzi’s face grew increasingly gloomy, and he said coldly across the void: ”No matter who you are, since you dare to interfere in my business, I will surely make you wish you were dead.”

After finishing his harsh words, he did not immediately go to complain to his Revered Master.

His Revered Master’s Daoist title was Kaitian Hunyuan Wuji Zhisheng · Yu Tianzun, a Hunyuan Daluo Saint and one of the top existences in the Saint Realm.

But precisely because his Revered Master was such a figure, he did not dare to disturb him with such a trivial matter.

Wiping out a Restriction on a little Ying Dragon was a matter as tiny as a sesame seed.

If he were to alarm his Revered Master for this, and his Revered Master asked: ”You can’t even handle such a small matter?”

Where would he put his face?

While Yuan Qingzi was feeling frustrated, he suddenly heard footsteps coming from behind him.

”Junior Brother, why is your expression so displeased? Have you encountered some Bottleneck in your cultivation?”

The newcomer wore a green robe, had a handsome face, and a faint smile on his lips. His tone was very concerned.

This person was Yuan Qingzi’s Senior Brother, known by the Daoist title Lingyangzi.

Seeing him, Yuan Qingzi’s face looked even worse.

His relationship with this Senior Brother was nominally that of fellow Disciples, but in reality, it wasn’t much different from being enemies.

The two had incompatible temperaments and conflicting philosophies. Yuan Qingzi disliked Lingyangzi for being too lenient and being polite to any random person, which he felt shamed the Yuan Sect.

Lingyangzi disliked Yuan Qingzi for being too ruthless, often exterminating entire families and making many enemies for the Yuan Sect.

Over time, they rarely had anything good to say when they met.

”What have you come to find me for?” Yuan Qingzi’s tone was cold, and he didn’t even bother to stand up.

Lingyangzi didn’t mind. He sat down on a nearby green stone and sighed, saying: ”Junior Brother, the Heaven and Earth Boundless Great Tribulation has begun. Do you know?”

Yuan Qingzi raised an eyebrow but didn’t speak.

Lingyangzi continued: ”This calamity is no small matter; it is a great calamity sweeping through the myriad worlds, not limited to just one world.”

”Although our Saint Realm has a Saint presiding over it, under the spread of tribulation qi, no one can say they are completely safe.”

”Our teacher asked me to tell all the Junior Brothers to Cultivate peacefully these days and not go out to cause trouble.”

When he reached this point, he looked at Yuan Qingzi with a half-smile.

”Especially you, Junior Brother.”

Hearing this, Yuan Qingzi sneered: ”What do you mean by that?”

Lingyangzi waved his hand, his tone still gentle: ”I don’t mean anything, I’m just worried about you.”

”I know a bit about your ways.”

”Exterminating entire families at every turn, not even sparing the old and young of their Family.”

”Junior Brother, we who Cultivate the Dao emphasize conforming to the Heavenly Mandate, not indiscriminate killing of the innocent.”

”If you act like this and it spreads, outsiders will think my Yuan Sect is a demonic sect.”

Yuan Qingzi’s face turned ashen: ”Are you lecturing me?”

”I wouldn’t dare,” Lingyangzi smiled.

”I’m just worried about you.”

”Junior Brother, you look down on those born from moisture or eggs, those with fur and horns, thinking they are unworthy of the Dao. That’s fine; everyone has different philosophies.”

”But you constantly drive them to extinction, making countless enemies in the Saint Realm.”

”I’m afraid that one day you’ll stumble, and then you’ll be the one suffering.”

Yuan Qingzi stared at him coldly and said word by word: ”Are you saying I’m shaming our Revered Master’s reputation, or are you hoping for my early death?”

The smile on Lingyangzi’s face stiffened slightly before returning to normal.

He indeed thought so in his heart.

This Junior Brother acted extremely and sought revenge for the smallest grievance, making countless enemies in the Saint Realm. If not for the protection of the Yuan Sect’s name, he would have been killed long ago.

Lingyangzi even felt that if Yuan Qingzi really died outside, the Yuan Sect would actually be a bit more peaceful.

But how could he admit this out loud?

”What kind of words are those, Junior Brother?” Lingyangzi looked innocent.

”We are fellow Disciples; I wish for your well-being. How could I want you to die?”

Yuan Qingzi scoffed, clearly not believing him.

Lingyangzi wasn’t in a hurry and rambled on for a few more sentences.

Yuan Qingzi became increasingly annoyed, wishing he could slap him away.

Seeing that his goal of annoying his Junior Brother had been achieved, Lingyangzi finally stood up slowly.

”Alright, let’s talk business.”

“Jiang Yun, the Grand Elder of the Taixu Saint Sect, has returned from the Immortal Realm.”

”She went to the Immortal Realm this time to investigate the disappearance of those Middle Thousand Worlds.”

”Unfortunately, after investigating for over two hundred years, she found nothing.”

”Teacher is quite concerned about this matter and intends for me to take a trip to the Immortal Realm to see if I can find any clues.”

As he said this, he gave Yuan Qingzi a meaningful look.

”While I am in the Immortal Realm, you stay here and peacefully close your doors to Cultivate. Don’t go around causing trouble.”

”The Heaven and Earth Boundless Great Tribulation has begun; having tribulation qi enter your body is no laughing matter.”

”If you don’t listen to advice and your mind is clouded by tribulation qi, turning you into ash, don’t blame me for not warning you.”

These words sounded like concern, but the tone and the look in his eyes were clearly provocative.

Lingyangzi wished for Yuan Qingzi to not listen to his advice.

He wished for him to go out and cause trouble.

He wished for him to run into a tough opponent and ideally be killed outside, ending it once and for all.

Yuan Qingzi naturally heard it.

His face was ashen, and he was about to speak back.

”Alright, the message has been delivered. I’m off.”

Lingyangzi laughed loudly, and before Yuan Qingzi could respond, his figure flashed and he disappeared from beside the ancient tree.

However, his laughter echoed in the mountains for a long time.

Yuan Qingzi gazed in the direction his Senior Brother Lingyangzi had gone, his expression shifting between light and dark, remaining silent for a long time.

Finally, he gave a cold snort and closed his eyes once more.

The Taiji Diagram above his head slowly rotated, the Yin and Yang Qi flowing, just enough to cover the Evil Qi at his brow that was almost bursting out of his body.
