Clan Rise: Starting as a Grandfather

Chapter 1642: Chapter 1009: My Words Bring Autumn, All Things Wither!

Guest seats, Xuan Ling, Zhongli Xiayi, and Master Shouyi were seated at the top row.

Que Lingyu sat beside Xuan Ling, gazing intently at him with deep eyes.

Xuan Ling felt a bit uncomfortable being stared at and brushed his sleeves, saying, “Why does Fellow Taoist Que look at me like this?”

“Your Wanhua Demon Court wouldn’t be up to some tricks in secret, would you!” Que Lingyu spoke in a crisp voice, putting on a look of scrutiny.

Xuan Ling was silent for a moment, “Playing tricks is something for Yellow Springs Hall, nothing to do with us?”

“Heh~” Que Lingyu sneered, “If you dare try anything, I’ll pluck off all your white feathers!”

This remark made Xuan Ling reveal an angry expression, “Fellow Taoist Que, is this how you treat your guests?”

“Not sure if you’re a guest yet!”

Que Lingyu said bluntly.

Xuan Ling glared at her fiercely, unwilling to pay her any more attention.

Being fellow demon birds, the two were somewhat acquainted. In terms of cultivation, they were actually quite similar, but Que Lingyu’s bloodline divine skills were too troublesome.

The Yun Que Clan excels in flight, with their greatest advantage being their extremely fast flying speed. Besides being fast, Que Lingyu’s speed in the Void leaves others in the dust.

Perhaps Que Lingyu’s combat strength is relatively weak, but with her incredible speed, she can outmaneuver most demons of the same realm within the Void.

In direct confrontation, Xuan Ling doesn’t fear her at all, but if it comes to entanglement, he can only avoid her.

Seeing Xuan Ling quiet down, Que Lingyu displayed a satisfied expression.

Zhongli Xiayi, listening to their conversation, couldn’t help but hide a giggle.

Master Shouyi’s lips twitched slightly, holding back laughter.

Who is Xuan Ling?

He is one of the seven elders of the Wanhua Demon Court, a renowned strong figure in the Wanhua Mountain Range. On ordinary days, who isn’t courteous to him, yet now he’s being outdone in front of Que Lingyu. If this gets out, few would believe it.

While they pondered why Xuan Ling was so fearful of Que Lingyu, the inauguration ceremony of the Sky Cloud Sword Sect began.

“The auspicious time has arrived…”

The ceremony’s master of ceremonies, Yun Ge, spoke with spiritual power spreading across the city. Nine cloud bridges suddenly lit up with light blue patterns, merging into the Tianyun platform like nine swimming dragons.

At the center of the altar, the “Mixed Element Jade Pendant” began to heat up. The cloud patterns on the pendant flowed like water waves, reflecting the white jade bricks below with a slight glow; the middle layer, displaying 360 cloud leaves, unfolded simultaneously, with droplets hanging from the leaf tips condensing into stars in the air. The topmost layer condensed a “Dao” character with spiritual light, faintly pulsating as if alive.

Then the White Cloud True Monarch stepped upon the cloud steps from the clouds, adorned in a plain white Taoist robe, with a jade pendant bearing cloud patterns tied around his waist, his hair simply bundled with a wooden hairpin.

Meanwhile, six Foundation Establishment elders stood firm at the “Six Harmony” positions, each holding the six tokens of “Wind, Rain, Thunder, Lightning, Mountain, and Ze.” As the tokens were raised, the Cloud Sea outside the Immortal City sank a hundred feet, revealing a clear sky like a mirror.

“Fellow Taoists…”

The voice of the White Cloud True Monarch, though not loud, spread like raindrops into one’s heart.

“On this auspicious day of establishing the sect, Yuntao, with the disciples of Tianyun, offers spirit grass as tributes and spirit stones as ceremonies, praying to the Heaven and Earth Great Dao—

Thinking back to the initial opening of chaos, with clarity and murkiness divided, light air floating upward as heaven, heavy matter sinking downward as earth, with the Great Dao flowing in between, creating and nurturing all things. Now, I, Yuntao, inherit the legacy of Mixed Element, gathering the spiritual talents from all seas, establishing the Heavenly Cloud Immortal Sect in the White Cloud Immortal City.

With the cloud as the dress, holding the vast aura of nine heavens; with the Dao as the bones, abiding by the natural principles. Spreading the “Mixed Element Scripture,” neither fixated on a single method nor confined to one approach, so that disciples understand the true meaning of ‘Heaven and Earth live simultaneously with me, and all things are one with me’; upholding the tradition of Tianyun Dao, not invading neighboring realms, nor disturbing living beings, allowing all directions to understand the Heavenly Dao that ‘those who bully shall meet their demise.’

At this moment, using the Sect Seal to determine earth veins, the Sect Rules Stele to bind minds, storing the true essence with Heaven and Earth Daoist Skill, protecting all beings with Divine Power Skill. If a disciple violates, may they suffer backlash of Dao tribulation; if the sect errs, willing to be abandoned by Heaven and Earth.

May Heaven and Earth bear witness, granting long-lasting Dao Rhyme to our sect, with disciples progressing, prosperous year by year. Once success is achieved, will safeguard Shanhe without harm, bless the civilians with health, allowing Mixed Element Great Dao to be passed down eternally.

Enjoy!

He recited a passage of scripture, mostly meaning that with the establishment of the Heavenly Cloud Immortal Sect today, it will respect Heaven and the laws of Earth, follow nature, protect all beings, and so on.

With the completion of the scripture, the spirit grass, spirit fruits, and spirit stones on the altar surged forth with a massive amount of spiritual energy, ascending to the heavens, while the White Cloud True Monarch presented the Sect Seal.

This Sect Seal is intended to be the future treasure of fortune for the Sky Cloud Sword Sect, the sect’s protective treasure.

The so-called treasure of fortune is maintained by the sect, imbued with Dao Rhyme, and after millions of years, this treasure can ascend to become a Spiritual Artifact, even a Spiritual Treasure.

Of course, it is currently just a regular Magical Treasure, with more symbolic significance than practical use.

The next moment, the Sect Seal erupted with a dragon-like tremor, and all the cloud patterns on the Mixed Element Jade Pendant lit up; above the sky, golden light radiated thousands of strands, with auspicious energy everywhere, celestial flowers blooming.

At the guest seats, everyone watched the heavenly light in silence, quiet enough to hear a pin drop.

Not only the guests who came to witness, but also all the cultivators about to become members of the Sky Cloud Sword Sect looked up toward the sky.

The golden light and auspicious energy weren’t arranged by them but were natural feedback from the Heavenly Dao.

Mortals who offer sacrifices to heaven receive no response, but when cultivators offer, celestial phenomena appear.

The sacrificial ceremony of the sect’s inauguration isn’t merely an ordinary ritual but a process of communicating with the Heaven and Earth Great Dao.

However, this type of sacrificial ceremony must be presided over by a Golden Core Cultivator; if it were a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, the Heaven and Earth Great Dao wouldn’t respond.

Time passed by the second, half of the heavenly light above seemed to freeze, motionless.

At the guest seats, Xuan Ling’s expression changed slightly, his eyes glowed white as he looked into the distances, penetrating space and falling into the Void.

Que Lingyu sensed it too and looked into the Void.

Meanwhile, within the Void, Yang Zhenshan, Jian Changhe, and Yun Xiao were enclosing someone, to be precise, an old ghost.

Today, the five of them had a clear division of labor. White Cloud True Monarch was responsible for presiding over the Heaven Sacrifice Ceremony, Que Lingyu was in charge of the guest area, and Yang Zhenshan was tasked with guarding the Void to prevent anyone from disrupting the ceremony.

“Aren’t you going to help?”

In the guest area, Xuan Ling asked with a faint smile.

“Heh~ My task today is to keep an eye on you. As for Yellow Springs Old Ghost, hmph, after today’s event is over, I’ll personally dismantle his Yellow Springs Hall!” Que Lingyu said coldly.

Although she wasn’t particularly interested in founding a sect, since she agreed with Jian Changhe, she couldn’t allow anyone to ruin today’s founding ceremony.

However, she was wary of the Wanhua Demon Court, although uncertain if they would cause trouble, she couldn’t relax her vigilance against Xuan Ling.

Xuan Ling was rather helpless, “Today, I’m just here to observe!”

“Rest assured, I won’t interfere in your battles!”

“Look, here comes another one!”

As they spoke, another formidable Qi Mechanism appeared in the Void.

The Void, in the endless void.

Yang Zhenshan looked at the approaching Yellow Springs Old Ghost, his expression somewhat solemn.

Though he hadn’t marked Yellow Springs Old Ghost’s Qi Mechanism, this guy’s Qi was distinctly different from that of Golden Core Cultivators and Demon Kings.

A Ghost King naturally exudes an aura of chilling Yin energy.

“Hehe, where is White Cloud True Monarch? Do you juniors intend to stop me?” Yellow Springs Old Ghost swept his Spiritual Sense over Yang Zhenshan and the other two.

In his eyes, Yang Zhenshan and his companions were just juniors.

Just as Yang Zhenshan was about to use a diplomatic approach before engaging in a fight, a powerful Qi Mechanism suddenly rushed towards him.

And this Qi Mechanism came directly for him, without any forewarning.

“Hold him off!”

Yang Zhenshan said coldly, in the next moment, his eyes turned a blue-gray color.

“Earth-shaking Tiger King! You’re courting death!”

The newcomer was none other than the Earth-shaking Tiger King.

If there’s anyone who didn’t want the Sky Cloud Sword Sect to be established, it was definitely the Earth-shaking Tiger King.

It was well known that the Earth-shaking Tiger King had been in conflict with White Cloud True Monarch for a long time, and if the Sky Cloud Sword Sect were established, there was no guarantee that White Cloud True Monarch wouldn’t come after him.

By that time, with five Golden Core Cultivators in the Sky Cloud Sword Sect, he definitely wouldn’t stand a chance.

So, he decided to strike first.

As the Earth-shaking Tiger King approached, Yang Zhenshan remained unperturbed.

1,346 years of Lifespan!

Consumption ratio two to one.

Yang Zhenshan’s mind moved, and he unhesitatingly unleashed the Withered and Flourishing Divine Power.

The Life and Death Tai Chi Fish appeared behind him, then suddenly expanded a thousandfold, enveloping a large portion of the surrounding void.

“Taiyin falls, a hundred grasses wilt, my words bring autumn’s decay to all!”

Yang Zhenshan raised his hand and pointed, causing the Life and Death Tai Chi Fish to contract sharply.

A side of blue light flashed, enveloping Yang Zhenshan, while an aura of death spread, enveloping the Earth-shaking Tiger King.

Deprivation!

The next moment, the empty void trembled violently, and the charging Earth-shaking Tiger King came to an abrupt halt. The dense vitality within him seeped out, while a surge of deathly aura poured into his body.

The once fierce Qi Mechanism suddenly weakened.

“Roar~”

The Earth-shaking Tiger King let out a piercing roar.

A sense of fear erupted from his core like a volcanic eruption, his Spiritual Sense trembling as he looked at Yang Zhenshan in terror.

Lifespan deprivation essentially equated to vitality deprivation, a truly irresistible divine power.

Besides having a longer lifespan, one could also counter the Withered and Flourishing Divine Power by replenishing vitality, garnering a large amount of life force in a short time.

But replenishing vitality is not an easy task. While Yang Zhenshan could absorb the vitality of Spirit Plants to replenish his own, it didn’t mean others could do the same.

Even those cultivating Wood Attribute Cultivation Techniques and Divine Skills may not necessarily absorb life force.

The Earth-shaking Tiger King, being only at the early stage of Demon King, wasn’t particularly strong, not even compared to White Cloud True Monarch, although his cultivation was superior to Yang Zhenshan’s and Jian Changhe’s.

The sudden appearance of the Earth-shaking Tiger King startled Jian Changhe, yet he refrained from rash actions and focused on Yellow Springs Old Ghost.

When Yellow Springs Old Ghost recognized the Earth-shaking Tiger King, a cold smile appeared on his face.

Unfurling the Yellow Springs Map, a torrential wave of Yellow Springs River water surged towards Jian Changhe and Yun Xiao.
