Chapter 290: Chapter 289: Enthusiastic Sect Leader Sun (Second Update, Please Subscribe)
In the Cave Mansion, the female cultivator smiled charmingly, discussing some rules of the Dan Yang Sect.
After a brief conversation, the female cultivator departed.
"Interesting!"
"Indeed, I still have to join the Dan Yang Sect and have to follow the rules!"
Lu Xuanji sighed slightly.
The Cultivation Immortality World is vastly different from the world of the previous life, but the basic rules are still similar, not much different.
...
Three days later, Lu Xuanji urged his Escape Light and headed towards the Dan Yang Sect.
Soon, a continuous mountain range appeared, with towering peaks, flowing waterfalls, Immortal cranes flying, palaces standing amidst the clouds, mystical beasts roaming around, some medicine gardens scattered among the mountains, and some spirit fields distributed around, all arranged in an orderly and beautiful manner.
Within a radius of three thousand miles, all belong to the directly controlled territory of the Dan Yang Sect.
As he approached the Dan Yang Sect, Lu Xuanji’s expression became solemn, observing the changes in the mountain range, the rise and fall of the terrain seemed like a giant dragon crouching ahead, there were dense grand arrays numbering around a thousand, once these arrays were activated, even a Nascent Soul True Monarch could be suppressed and killed.
At the moment when he approached, he saw the Mountain Gate of Purple Sun Mountain open, with some cultivators coming to greet him.
Ahead, there was a cultured cultivator wearing a cyan Daoist robe, with a few strands of beard on his chin, standing there with a celestial demeanor, giving off the aura of a Fortune Immortal.
He was none other than the Sect Leader of the Dan Yang Sect, Sun Beiwang.
In the Cultivation Immortality Sect, the power of the Sect Leader is not the greatest, nor is the strength the strongest, above there are Nascent Soul cultivators forming the Supreme Elders, at the same level there are Hall Masters, and Peak Masters of various branches restricting each other, in terms of authority, more like a grand steward.
"Daoist friend has arrived!"
Sun Beiwang stepped forward and said.
"Thank you, Sect Leader, for coming to greet me!" Lu Xuanji also stepped forward and said.
"Let’s not say much, talk about other things after reaching the hall!" Sun Beiwang laughed.
Lu Xuanji laughed and said, "You’re too kind!"
"Please come inside!"
"Please come inside!"
The two exchanged pleasantries, recording inside the main hall.
This Sect Leader enthusiastically received him, with manners akin to being his own brother.
Lu Xuanji also enthusiastically greeted him like good brothers.
During the exchange, the Sect Leader began introducing the situation of Purple Sun Mountain, the sect rules, the situation of each hall, and some situations of the Golden Core Elders.
Sun Beiwang said: "Why do we cultivate immortality? Is it not for longevity, freedom, and living joyfully? After reaching the Golden Core, ordinary sect rules, ordinary laws, and such are merely constraints for the weak, but are unable to constrain us strong ones. Many rules can be ignored, but there are two rules that must be followed: one is not to betray the sect, and the other is not to massacre the Human Race in large numbers!"
"I naturally understand this!"
Lu Xuanji nodded and said.
"Betraying the sect is actually a small matter, at worst, it is just a hunt by the Dan Yang Sect; but if there is a large-scale massacre of the Human Race, it is a hunt by all Human Race cultivators!" Sun Beiwang said, "After reaching the Golden Core, battles must be fought in the air, not on the ground, and human areas must not be affected by battles; Golden Core cultivators may not kill Foundation Establishment cultivators, Purple Mansion cultivators, or civilians, if many are killed, there will be big trouble!"
Lu Xuanji laughed and said: "If a Purple Mansion cultivator provokes and insults me, can’t I take action?"
"If a Purple Mansion cultivator does not respect the Golden Core and wantonly provokes, naturally, they can be killed!" Sun Beiwang laughed: "Golden Core cultivators must not wantonly massacre cultivators, but it’s not that they can’t. Moreover, if a Golden Core cultivator finds someone annoying, they can have a Purple Mansion cultivator act, ideally not acting themselves!"
These are some unwritten rules prevalent within the Golden Core circle.
In the cultivation world, the strong have always been respected, the strong are esteemed, and it’s not possible for the strong to act recklessly and kill anyone at will.
On the whole, Chu Country is still in a state of order.
The first lesson the Sect Leader teaches Lu Xuanji is that Golden Core cultivators may not act recklessly, attack, harm, or annihilate lower-level cultivators.
This counts as protection for lower-level cultivators!
By protecting lower-level cultivators, geniuses among them can grow, and the cultivation world can have a constant flow of talents.
Of course, if a lower-level cultivator provokes a Golden Core, insults them with words, and is disrespectful, the Golden Core cultivator can take action to annihilate them.
As long as there is sufficient reason, a Golden Core cultivator can take action to annihilate lower-level cultivators.
Moreover, even if the rules restrict direct action by Golden Core cultivators, they can have subordinate Purple Mansion cultivators attack, or use sect rules to hinder growth, and even use sect rules to kill, etc.
"Daoist friend, do you have a Dao companion?"
Sun Beiwang asked.
"Yes, a female cultivator from the Ye Family, named Ye Wanyi!" Lu Xuanji asked.
"Daoist friend, do you have any concubines?" Sun Beiwang asked.
"None!"
"Daoist friend, you live too frugally!" Sun Beiwang said: "Even mortal emperors have three palaces, six courtyards, seventy-two concubines; Daoist friend is a Golden Core cultivator, with a thousand-year lifespan, power in hand, having too few concubines is unbecoming; there should be at least twenty concubines."
Lu Xuanji laughed: "Can I handle that many concubines? Besides, I am busy cultivating and have no time to indulge in beauty!"
Sun Beiwang smiled faintly: "Do you think I am suggesting this just for you to enjoy beauty?"
"Does it have some deeper meaning?"
Lu Xuanji laughed.
"There is, naturally there is!" Sun Beiwang laughed: "Many things are a matter of probability. When mortals combine with mortals, the probability of their offspring awakening a Spirit Root is one percent; but when cultivators combine, the probability of awakening a Spirit Root is ten percent. The offspring of Purple Mansion cultivators must have a Spirit Root; the offspring of Golden Core cultivators must be Dual Spirit Roots or Anomalous Spirit Roots, and there is even a thirty percent chance of being born with Celestial Spirit Roots."
"I encourage Daoist friends to take in more concubines, partly for enjoying beauty, but also to contribute some excellent offspring to our Human Race!"
"Human Race strong cultivators are restrained and not passionate about beauty, with little desire to produce offspring; instead, those with lesser qualifications breed a lot, increasing numbers, but decreasing quality!"
"Going on like this isn’t actually beneficial for the development of the Human Race! Daoist friend, since becoming a Golden Core Elder, should contribute to the Human Race and work hard to produce offspring, it’s a pity our Human Race is not as good as the Demon Race in producing offspring... If only the birth rate could keep up, the Demon Race would have been eradicated long ago!"
"Daoist friend, this way! To the Miscellaneous Peak and Outer Gate Mountain, to select some suitable maids..."
Sun Beiwang spoke, pulling Ye Xuanji along.
Lu Xuanji smiled, unable to refuse, and rose to follow him.
