Eternal Sacred King

Just as he was about to approach the cultivation ground at the front, Elder Zhong suddenly paused and descended slowly from midair, waving for Su Zimo and the other two to descend as well.

"You can't stand in the air when you come to the cultivation ground to learn. Everyone has to stand on the ground as a form of respect for the Perfected Immortals who are imparting the Dao."

Elder Zhong explained.

The four of them did not move much. However, at the front of the cultivation ground, a Grade 9 Heaven Immortal expert seemed to have sensed something and turned around slowly. When he saw Su Zimo and the others, his eyes turned cold!

At the same time, Su Zimo frowned slightly. He sensed a wave of hostility from the crowd at the front of the cultivation ground that vanished instantly.

At that moment, Su Zimo had already descended on the ground. There was a sea of people in front of him and the origin of the hostility could not be seen.

At the front of the cultivation ground.

"Qingyun, what's wrong?"

Yan Bingying, the number one fairy of the inner sect, sensed that the man beside her had a strange expression and asked softly out of curiosity.

The man beside Yan Bingying was the number one of the inner sect, Fang Qingyun!

"I saw someone I know."

Fang Qingyun said indifferently with a calm expression.

"Who is it?"

At the side, Tang Peng asked.

"Su Zimo."

Fang Qingyun replied.

"Him!"

Tang Peng's expression turned cold as hatred and killing intent flashed through his eyes.

Before the 10,000 Year Meet, in order to please Sword Immortal Yue Hua, the three of them wanted to teach Yang Ruoxu a lesson because of Su Zimo!

Furthermore, Su Zimo and Yang Ruoxu were both from the lower worlds and Yang Ruoxu took good care of him.

Back then, Fang Qingyun and the other two suffered a loss as well. Not only did they fail to teach Yang Ruoxu a lesson, they even caused Pang Yu's death!

"Qingyun, I heard from others that Su Zimo also knows a divine power that can reduce one's lifespan. Do you think that in that battle back then…"

Yan Bingying had a confused expression and hesitated.

Fang Qingyun said, "Cultivators of the Pang Clan sent me a message as well to ask about this matter. They have the same judgment."

"Back then, that lad was only a Grade 8 Earth Immortal. Could he have killed Pang Yu, a Grade 9 Heaven Immortal?"

Tang Peng frowned in disbelief.

Fang Qingyun said, "No matter what, that matter started because of Su Zimo and he has a good relationship with Yang Ruoxu. We have to teach him a lesson."

"Senior Brother Fang, what do you think we should do?"

Killing intent flashed through Tang Peng's eyes as he secretly made a beheading gesture and sent a voice transmission with his spirit consciousness, "Should I find an opportunity…"

"Junior Brother Tang, don't be reckless!"

Yan Bingying frowned. "I heard that Su Zimo made a name for himself at the 10,000 Year Meet and brought glory to the academy."

"That's right. Just teach him a lesson."

Fang Qingyun smiled gently. "We just have to let him understand who calls the shots in the inner sect! If he's wise and stands on our side, we can give him a chance."

"He's the top of the Earth Ranking after all and can be considered a talent. It's a pity to cripple him directly."

"Do you have a way, Qingyun?"

Yan Bingying sent a voice transmission, "Su Zimo's current identity is no longer the same as before. Previously, he was only an outer sect disciple. Now that he has joined the inner sect, although his cultivation realm is far inferior to ours, he's still the top of the Earth Ranking."

"There's no need for us to step in."

Fang Qingyun smiled indifferently and looked at the high and mighty figure on the round pulpit not far away.

"Senior Brother Jade Toad?"

Yan Bingying's eyes lit up. "That's right. Senior Brother Jade Toad is a legacy disciple. Given his status, even if Su Zimo is the top of the Earth Ranking, he's nothing in front of Senior Brother Jade Toad."

"However, how can we get Senior Brother Jade Toad to step in and teach Su Zimo a lesson?"

Tang Peng asked.

Fang Qingyun said, "Senior Brother Jade Toad is under Senior Brother Yue Hua in the legacy ground. Senior Brother Yue Hua's dislike of Yang Ruoxu is well-known in the entire academy."

"All I have to do is inform Senior Brother Jade Toad about the relationship between Su Zimo and Yang Ruoxu and what happened in the outer sect. Naturally, he will step in to teach Su Zimo a lesson."

…

"There are five aspects to flourishing one's spirit. Energy takes the lead while the heart is the reliance of energy. One can only glorify the spirit when one has morals and the method of nourishing the spirit comes from unity of the Dao. Every single orifice is a gateway for qi and all is regulated by the heart."

"Life is bestowed by the heavens and the union of the three essences will revert one's core to nature. The removal of illusions creates the true essence. Perfected Immortal experts are one with heaven…"

Although Su Zimo and the others were standing outside the crowd, they could still hear the voice of Perfected Immortal Jade Toad from the pulpit at the front of the cultivation ground. His voice was gentle and his pronunciation was precise.

Every single word spoken by Perfected Immortal Jade Toad was profound and memorable.

Su Zimo surveyed his surroundings, still thinking about the momentary hostility earlier on and was a little distracted.

"Elder Zhong, the disciples of the academy here seem to have high cultivation realms."

Su Zimo took a rough glance. Most of the Heaven Immortals around the cultivation ground were above Grade 5!

There were almost no Grade 1 Heaven Immortals like Su Zimo, Princess Scarlet Rainbow and Liu Ping.

"Of course."

Elder Zhong smiled. "When disciples of Perfected Immortals impart their Dao, they usually impart the Dharmic Dao between Heaven Immortals and Perfected Immortals. It's the most helpful for high-level Heaven Immortals to know how to break through and what they have comprehended during the breakthrough."

Su Zimo nodded.

Right then, for some reason, Perfected Immortal Jade Toad's voice paused for a moment.

After a moment of silence on the pulpit, Perfected Immortal Jade Toad continued imparting the Dao as usual.

That momentary pause did not cause much of a reaction.

However, Su Zimo realized that after a momentary pause, Perfected Immortal Jade Toad's gaze had drifted in their direction.

This was the first time Princess Scarlet Rainbow and Liu Ping had entered the inner sect and they were both excited to be able to catch a legacy disciple imparting the Dao.

"It's such a rare opportunity for legacy disciples to impart the Dao. There are hundreds of thousands of inner sect disciples. Why are only half of them here?"

Princess Scarlet Rainbow asked softly.

Elder Zhong explained, "Some inner sect disciples might be out traveling to complete sect missions while others who are in seclusion cultivation will naturlaly not come out of seclusion rashly."

"Of course, every legacy disciple has their own insights and the Dao they impart are all different. It's definitely beneficial for us to listen more."

"That's right, true!"

Liu Ping nodded hurriedly and said excitedly, "The few sentences that Senior Brother Jade Toad said earlier on were truly extremely mysterious. I've been pondering over them repeatedly and I've gained new insights."

"How noisy!"

Right then, a shout sounded from the cultivation ground like thunder.

Initially, the thunder rumbled above the cultivation ground. However, it descended in the ears of Su Zimo and the other three instantly and exploded!

Elder Zhong's expression changed slightly.

He was a Grade 9 Heaven Immortal and could still withstand the impact of the voice.

However, Princess Scarlet Rainbow and Liu Ping were only Grade 1 Heaven Immortals. Their bodies swayed slightly and their ears buzzed. In fact, blood even seeped out of their ears!

That single voice had already injured the two of them!

Su Zimo managed to defend against it with his Grade 11 Green Lotus True Body. However, he frowned in discomfort.
