After Xu Liao took over Treasure Elephant Palace, he imparted the Dharmic Dao, hoping that all the demons in his sect could transform into human form. Although some of the lesser demons under him were too clumsy, such that even the best shapeshifting Dharma spells in the world could not completely transform into human form, after several months of hard work, the immortal sect was filled with humanoid monsters with demonic auras. There were no longer any boorish beasts.
Xu Liao even set up a Lightning Pool to allow the demons in his sect to convert to the cultivation of Spiritium. However, he had only come in search of an opportunity and not to impart the Dao. Therefore, he did not insist on it. Only a tiny number of demons would disperse their demonic powers to convert to the cultivation of Spiritium due to a stroke of luck.
A few days after the three patriarchs took over Treasure Elephant Palace, Immortal Huangji's eldest disciple came out of seclusion. This eldest disciple was rather talented. With the Dharmic Dao Imparted by Immortal Huangji, he was able to cultivate to the realm of a Da Yanshi.
After he came out of seclusion, he stepped out of the chamber and was puzzled for a moment when he saw that there was no one outside.
After all, he was the eldest senior brother of the sect. His breakthrough was a huge matter for the entire sect. Shouldn't all the junior brothers be there to welcome him? Even if his master, Immortal Huangji, did not come due to his pride in his status, he would still call him over and ask about his well-being. It would definitely not be a lonely place where no one showed interest in him.
The eldest senior brother circled around and occasionally met a few junior brothers and juniors. Their eyes would shimmer as they turned to leave. They did not even dare greet him. He was even more puzzled as he hurriedly went to where Immortal Huangji cultivated. He wanted to ask his master for an explanation.
Along the way, the eldest disciple felt even more odd. Treasure Elephant Palace was considered grand and extraordinary to begin with. After all, its owner was a cultivator. However, the scale was limited. After all, Immortal Huangji was only a Da Yanshi. But the present Treasure Elephant Palace was completely different from before. Not only did it have countless buildings, it even formed a massive array that enveloped the entire Treasure Elephant Palace. It produced layers of clouds and added countless strange functions to the palace.
For example, the eldest disciple saw one of his Junior Brothers trying to avoid him by standing in a corner and then vanishing without a trace. Only when he walked over did he realize that there was a teleportation portal there. However, he didn't know how to use it, and didn't know where it would teleport him, so he didn't dare to try it.
There were even more stone tablets in the palace, by the roadside, at the corner of the walls, in the garden … They were everywhere. The eldest disciple also went up to take a look, only to discover that there were actually countless Dao techniques engraved on them. Among them, there were quite a number of exquisite Dharmic incantations, even surpassing what his master, the Great Immortal Huang Ji, had imparted.
He was also a seed of cultivation, so along the way, he silently memorized these spells and didn't want to miss a single stone tablet. Normally, it would only take an incense stick's worth of time to reach this place, but he actually walked for half a day and hadn't even walked three halts.
The eldest senior brother knew that the situation was too odd. Finally, he had no choice but to abandon the Dharmic incantations and close his eyes. Only then did he walk to where Great Immortal Huang Ji had once imparted his Dao. The moment he stepped in, it was immediately different from before. It was a lot more majestic, especially when there were three Daoists sitting in front of him. He didn't know any of them.
The eldest disciple did not even think as he shouted, "Who are you? Where's my master? What right do you have to steal my master's position? "The eldest disciple was very honest. He wanted to pull down Xu Liao, Yuxu, and Qingxu.
Just as Xu Liao was about to address him as senior brother, he could not help but recall the unlucky Great Immortal Huang Ji. He had divined several times and although he failed to come up with an answer, he had a general idea that it was because the three of them had addressed him as master. A particular Dao Lord, who did not wish for such a Grandmaster to be born, had casually cleaved him down.
He did not know if he would infuriate another Dao Ancestor by addressing him as senior brother. He did not wish for an additional Uncle-Master to take action, so he ended the innocent Daoist.
He hurriedly said, "We are junior brothers under Great Immortal Huang Ji. You can replace me as Uncle-Master …" Xu Liao paused for a moment. Seeing that there were no signs of abnormalities, he continued, "As your master offended a powerful enemy, he was struck by lightning from five thousand kilometers away. Now, all that's left of him is his body. Even his head is gone."
The eldest disciple was instantly enraged as he yelled, "Who are you trying to fool? How can someone who can cast Dharma spells from five thousand kilometers away have a grudge with our Treasure Elephant Palace? My master is only a Da Yanshi. How could he have the ability to offend such an important figure? It must be some scheme of yours that caused my master's death. "
The fellow immediately wanted to attack. He raised his hand and three sword flashes flew out. They formed a triangular shape as they attacked the trio.
Xu Liao had battled many times but … he had not seen an enemy who used flying sword arts in a very long time. The last time he saw one was a fellow disciple who used the Cosmic Sleeve Sword. He was also Bai Qiulian's cousin.
Flying sword arts had been inferred into countless Dharmic formulations in the future. It was as though the ancient sword art used by his eldest disciple had been eliminated years ago due to its lack of strength.
Xu Liao extended his hand and gently pinched, holding the three flying swords in his hand. He sighed and said, "If you don't believe me, you can summon your junior brothers and you will know that I'm not lying. As for combat, there's no need for you. The difference is just too great. "
Xu Liao casually shook his hand and wiped away the spirituality on the three flying swords. It made his eldest disciple's heart ache as he could no longer summon his flying swords. Fortunately, Xu Liao casually tossed the three flying swords back. He hurriedly breathed in three mouthfuls of air, and the three flying swords regained some of their spirituality. They swayed and floated up again, but for the time being, they could not be used to kill enemies.
If he did not refine them again, his eldest disciple's connection with the flying swords would be extremely weak. Even if he could command them to fly, he would not be able to transmit more Quintessential Qi. Without the Quintessential Qi Valley to power them, the flying swords were nearly powerless.
He knew what was good for him. With Xu Liao's means, his eldest disciple immediately felt his mind clear up. He turned and left. It was not easy for him to find a few junior brothers and after interrogating them for half a day, he learned that Xu Liao was telling the truth. His master had indeed been struck by lightning.
As for Xu Liao and company's statuses, his eldest disciple also figured out that Xu Liao was in charge of Treasure Elephant Palace. He naturally would not submit to anyone, so he made his senior brothers into disciples. Furthermore, they were all below the third generation. Therefore, when his eldest disciple interrogated them, he was left in a daze for a while due to the inconsistencies in their testimonies.
He could not figure out the seniority of Xu Liao and company either. At times, he felt that they were one generation higher than him, and at other times, he felt that they were two generations higher than him. However, none of that mattered. What mattered was that he wanted to avenge his master.
Therefore, this eldest senior brother ignored Xu Liao and company. He spent his days strolling around Treasure Elephant Palace, studying the stone monuments placed in the palace. All he wanted was to one day master a profound Dharmic Dao so that he could seek out his master's enemy …
When Xu Liao found out about this, other than silently praying for the bastard, he didn't pay any more attention to him. After all, Xu Liao had already found out that the Heaven-Dao fragment's Saturn Peach Feast was about to begin.
