On this day, the Four Great Immortal Clans sent out invitations to the various sects for a discussion.
Qin Di was a dual cultivator of the demonic path, so he did not want to get too deeply involved in this dispute. Thus, he used the excuse that he was in seclusion to cultivate and did not attend the meeting.
Golden Saint Ying, the Earth Immortal of the Four Sacred Sect, led a few Dao Integration cultivators to attend the meeting.
After a few months of discussion, the few tens of sects decided that each sect would send out a certain amount of Earthly Immortal Realm experts and Dao Integration Realm cultivators to form an army and carry out many rounds of obstructions.
According to the agreement, the Four Sacred Sect needed to send two Earth Immortals and 20 Dao Integration cultivators.
As the head of the sect, Qin Di naturally did not need to personally take action, but his disciples all had to participate in the battle.
He called everyone over and gave each of them two rank eight or nine spirit treasures. He had hundreds of such spirit treasures on him, and they were all picked up from the Pearl Jade Immortal Palace.
Saint Jin Ying and Saint Luo Shu led the group to fight. Although they had already advanced to the Earth Immortal Stage, they didn't have any high-grade protective spiritual treasures in their hands. Usually, they only used third-grade or fourth-grade spiritual treasures. Now that they suddenly obtained eighth or ninth-grade spiritual treasures, both of them were overjoyed!
"Thank you, Sect Leader! With these treasures, we don't have to be afraid anymore. Even if we can't win, we can still escape alive! "
"Sect Leader, this kind of treasure is too precious! It's not easy to get even one of them, yet you brought over forty of them at once. It's simply terrifying! "
A few Dao Integration cultivators at the side could not help but ask, "Sect Leader, are you lending us these spirit treasures temporarily or are you giving them to us?"
Someone laughed and said, "Of course he's borrowing it. If we can obtain two high-rank spirit treasures just by fighting one battle, then the over a hundred Dao Integration Stage cultivators of our sect would be fighting for them! "
Qin Di smiled and said, "I will bestow these treasures to you. You don't have to return them after you use them."
"Ah? Is he really giving it to us? "
"My god, this is an eighth-stage spirit treasure! It could be sold at a sky-high price in Tianbao Hall! I might even be able to exchange for a few Immortal Spirit Veins! "
"Sect Leader, where did you get so many spirit treasures? Could it be that he robbed Tianbao Hall? I suspect that even if he robbed the headquarters of Tianbao Hall, he might not be able to get so many eighth-stage and ninth-stage spirit treasures at once! "
Qin Di waved his hand. "It's fine as long as it's useful. Don't ask so many questions!"
After that, he called over Shen Yunyi, Fan Yao, and Long Jin 'er, who were preparing for battle, and laid out a pile of ninth-grade spirit treasures for them to choose from. At the same time, he took out the metal puppets for the three of them to temporarily borrow. Each of them could carry sixty puppets for protection.
Qin Di reminded the three of them that after they went out, they should not put too much effort into killing. They should just focus on completing the task. Unless it was a critical moment, they should not take out the sixty metal puppets. That was because sixty ninth-stage spirit artifact flying arrows were too powerful. Even a ninth-stage Earth Immortal might fall under them.
He told the three of them that whether it was the Demon Clan or the Goblin Clan, there was no essential difference between them and the Immortal Clan of the human race. Therefore, the purpose of this trip was to train themselves and improve their killing ability. They did not need to kill too many people. If they released all their strength and killed a lot of Goblin Demon Clan, they might be surrounded and attacked by many Earth Immortals, which would bring about a fatal disaster to themselves.
The three of them nodded in agreement, indicating that they remembered what their master said.
Qin Di also reminded the three of them that it was easy to dodge a spear in the open, but difficult to guard against an arrow in the dark. They should always be careful of the Spirit Cloud Palace and the four Upper Sects, and be careful of their traps. If they encountered any mishaps, each of them had an immortal-grade peach boat in their hands. Regardless of the consequences, they should escape back first.
The three of them also nodded. "Master, don't worry. We know what to do. "
After everyone left, Qin Di stayed on the Ethereal Immortal Peak to cultivate.
The little peach tree extracted a large amount of immortal spirit veins from the many goose egg-shaped grotto-heavens. It absorbed half of them into its body, allowing it to advance to the peak of the first level of the Heaven Immortal Realm. It could undergo the heavenly tribulation at any time and advance to the second level of the Heaven Immortal Realm. The other half was buried under the Ethereal Immortal Peak, and after a hundred years of fusion, it evolved into a fourth level immortal spirit vein.
Because of this, the immortal spirit energy on the Ethereal Immortal Peak increased by a few times!
As the density of immortal spirit energy increased, the speed at which cultivators advanced also increased. Therefore, all the disciples of the Four Divine Sect hoped to be able to come to the Ethereal Immortal Peak to cultivate.
Qin Di used the collapsed grotto-heavens as materials to expand the area of the Ethereal Immortal Peak by almost ten times. No matter if it was immortal fields or ores, they were many times more than before, and they could also support more disciples to come and cultivate. Therefore, the entire Ethereal Immortal Peak could accommodate a total of eighty thousand disciples, including Dao Integration, Void Step, Nascent Soul, and Golden Core. Although these disciples were many, they were only equivalent to a third of the Four Divine Sect.
In recent years, more and more cultivators at the Nascent Soul Realm and above rushed over from the lower reaches of the Skyfall River.
On this day, Qin Di's fourth disciple, Lan Yunting, and his old friend, Fang Yunjian, finally rushed over from the Dreamy Cloud Swamp.
After so many years, these two were only Void Step cultivators, and they had already been left far behind by Fan Yao, Long Jin 'er, and the others.
Fang Yunjian was at the intermediate stage of the Void Step, and when he saw Qin Di now, he couldn't help but sigh endlessly.
Back then, his cultivation was still above Qin Di's, but the difference now was too great! It was simply like the difference between heaven and earth, like the difference between cloud and mud! Looking at Miao Yunjuan, Zhuang Yunqing, and the others, they had also reached the third or fourth stage of Dao Integration, and they surpassed him by an entire great realm! This realm was incredible, because Void Step cultivators only had a lifespan of ten thousand years, while Dao Integration cultivators had a lifespan of one hundred thousand years! Just by comparing the two, one could see how great the difference was.
He touched his bald head and chuckled. "Qin Shidi, you see, I'm too far behind now, how can I make up for it?"
Qin Di smiled and said, "This is not difficult. Our Golden Pill Sect is famous for alchemy. Just follow the method I told you, step by step, and swallow a pile of immortal pills. You will be able to quickly improve your cultivation! "
Fang Yunjian was taken aback. "A pile of immortal pills? What kind of immortal pills do you have here? "
Qin Di said, "Recently, we have developed a lot of immortal pills, no less than twenty in total. Later, go find Master Lan and take some immortal pills from her, then swallow them in a certain order. She has her own instructions on which to swallow first and which to swallow last. You can't swallow them carelessly, otherwise, you will only be able to increase your cultivation by three thousand years, and you won't be able to advance to Dao Integration! "
"Thank you, Junior Brother, I understand!"
Lan Yunting knelt in front of Qin Di, not daring to raise his head. He said, "Disciple greets Master."
Qin Di said, "Tell me about your situation these years. Let me hear it. "
Lan Yunting said, "Disciple wasted a lot of time, first married a wife and had children, then focused on cultivation. Now, I am only at the early stage of Void Step, I have failed to live up to Master's expectations."
Qin Di said with a gentle expression, "Stand up and speak, don't be so reserved. Marrying a wife and having children is also human nature, I won't blame you. Where is your wife? What's her name? Is she also a disciple of the Four Divine Sect? "
Lan Yunting was no longer the elegant young man from before, and his face looked a little gloomy. He sat up and replied, "Disciple's wife, you have seen her before, Master. She only cultivated to the middle stage of Nascent Soul before she died! "
Qin Di frowned and said angrily, "How could she die? I left the Altar of Time on Butterfly Island, can't it help her advance to Void Step? "
Lan Yunting was so scared that he fell to his knees again and replied, "Master, it's not that the Altar of Time is ineffective, but there was a deviation in her cultivation, so she couldn't advance all the way!"
Qin Di said, "Can't you send a letter to me through Tianbao Hall? If I know, I have all kinds of ways to promote her to Void Step! "
Lan Yunting lowered his head and was silent for a moment, then said, "I thought she could advance to Void Step with her own ability, but who knew that she once improved at a godly speed, but one day, she suddenly went mad. I wanted to save her, but it was too late!"
Qin Di shook his head slightly, "Forget it. This is a calamity in her life. Where is your son? Did you bring him? "
Lan Yunting replied, "I was worried that the journey would be difficult, so I left him on Butterfly Island. When I left, he was already at the late stage of Foundation Establishment, and should have advanced to Gold Core by now. "
Qin Di asked, "When you came up from the Cloud Dream Swamp, who did you give Butterfly Island to?"
"When I came, there were two Nascent Soul cultivators on Butterfly Island, both of whom came from Scarlet Flame Island. Those two are juniors, so you may not have seen them. "
Qin Di took out an immortal-rank peach boat and said, "Make another trip and bring my son here. If you leave him on Butterfly Island, under the temptation of the Altar of Time, he may die again in the future. "
"Huh? The Altar of Time is so harmful? "
Qin Di said, "There are advantages and disadvantages. Many years ago, I told you not to rely too much on the Altar of Time, otherwise, shortcuts will be detours. "
The Orchid Cloud Pavilion bowed and left.
Afterward, Shen Yunyi and the other two completed their respective expeditions, made great names for themselves, and returned to the Four Divine Sect.
Although they were only at the mid-stage of Dao Integration, which was not a high level, their killing techniques were very powerful. They had been surrounded by the Demon Clan several times, and eighty percent of the people who went to fight had perished. However, they had all returned safely.
One time, they participated in a large-scale battle under the leadership of Li Kongying, a ninth-stage Earth Immortal of the Spirit Cloud Palace. The three of them were ordered to guard Blackwood Cliff for seven days and seven nights. If they retreated in advance, they would be severely punished and thrown into the water dungeon for ten thousand years!
At that time, countless Goblin attacked them, and the three of them couldn't stop them with their strength.
However, at the critical moment, Fan Yao suddenly refined a bunch of second-stage immortal arrays, which enveloped Blackwood Cliff. Whenever they broke one, she would take out another one, layer after layer, and no one knew how many immortal arrays there were.
Moreover, Long Jin 'er also refined some immortal talismans, which protected the three of them. After fighting for seven days and seven nights, they didn't suffer any damage.
In the end, the three of them were surrounded, and they had no choice but to sit in an immortal boat and release their most powerful killing methods. One hundred and eighty metal puppets continuously spat out ninth-stage spirit treasure flying arrows, which were like a rain of arrows! They killed all the way, and not only did they break out of the encirclement, but they also rescued several cultivators of their sect!
In that battle, a total of more than fifty Earth Immortals and more than four hundred Dao Integration Stage cultivators died!
Li Kongying led a large group, and as the leader of the sect, he escaped alone! There were a total of more than three hundred disciples who participated in the battle, and in the end, two hundred and fifty died!
In this battle, the Four Divine Sect had twelve people who participated in the battle, and in the end, ten returned! It was the sect that was relatively well-preserved among all the sects!
After this battle, the name of the Four Divine Sect's Ethereal Immortal Peak once again shone with golden light!
Everyone knew that the Ethereal Immortal Peak not only had Qin Di, who was unstoppable in the Spirit Mountain, but even his three disciples were also ferocious and could make all the Earth Immortal Patriarchs look at them!
So from then on, very few people dared to offend the disciples of the Ethereal Immortal Peak.
The battle hadn't ended yet, but Qin Di's three disciples had already withdrawn, and the first part of the Four Divine Sect's assignment had been completed. Next, it was the turn of the other sects to participate in the battle, so he was temporarily at ease.
Time flew like an arrow, and in the blink of an eye, Qin Di was already 3,300 years old, and his cultivation had advanced from the third level of the Earthly Immortal Realm to the fifth level.
Logically speaking, if he were to completely relax, he would have been able to advance to the ninth level of the Earthly Immortal Realm a long time ago!
But he didn't want to advance so quickly. Because slow work produces fine work, and it was easy for problems to arise if one advanced too quickly. So every time he advanced, he would repeatedly examine himself and swallow a Questioning Inner Heart Pill to see if there were any flaws in his body, and he would only advance to the next level after all his flaws had been made up for.
The Questioning Inner Heart Pill was a type of second-stage immortal pill. In the past, it was only recorded in golden books and jade slips, and not many people were willing to refine it because it couldn't directly increase one's cultivation. However, Qin Di discovered that this kind of immortal pill had great benefits for the cultivation of an Earthly Immortal. This was because when a cultivator reached the Earthly Immortal Realm, it was like a tall building rising from the ground. From top to bottom, it was unknown how many bricks and tiles there were, and how many steel and cement parts there were. Regular Earthly Immortals couldn't figure out where the flaws were. So, they kept trying to pull it up. Finally, one day, they couldn't pull it up anymore, and it collapsed!
That situation was just like the Lan Yun Pavilion's madam. She fell into a state of Berserking Qi Deviation in one night, and there was no way to save her.
Until today, Qin Di still remembered such a girl. She was very pretty, and she hid behind the Lan Yun Pavilion. However, now, she had already fallen.
Qin Di refined a hundred Questioning Inner Heart Pills and distributed them to his disciples, Miao Yunjuan, and the others. From now on, they had to take one every time they advanced.
After he was done with all this, he counted on his fingers and realized that he had not seen his parents for two thousand years.
So, he informed everyone and drove the Heaven Reaching Ship away from the Spirit Mountain.
At this moment, the Heaven Reaching Ship had already advanced to a Rank 8 Spirit Treasure, so it only took two or three days to fly back to Heavenly Star Island.
Two days later, at noon, Xiao Chen stood outside Heavenly Star Island.
Looking around, Xiao Chen saw that Heavenly Star Island was lush and lush. There were a few red-crowned cranes flying around, and there were even sika deer resting on the island. It looked like an immortal mountain blessed land. It looked like his parents were living a peaceful and comfortable life here.
The last time he returned, Qin Di had left an Immortal Spirit Vein on the island. So, after many years of nurturing, the Spiritual Energy on Heavenly Star Island was already comparable to the main peak of the Four Divine Sects. However, it was still far from the Ethereal Immortal Peak.
Xiao Chen stepped into the formation and looked at the familiar yet somewhat strange scene in front of him. He could not help but sigh.
