Longevity, starting from being a chicken raising servant-Chapter 1599 - 108: Prophecy

Chapter 1599 -108: Prophecy

Inside Chunyang Palace.

Chijian looked at the people in the hall with a bewildered expression:

“So, you all knew about this long ago?”

Sect Master Liang Wuji of the Longevity Sect shook his head and said:

“Not exactly knowledge, merely speculation. But Brother Chijian, as a member of the Ye Family, seems to align with our thoughts. This confirms that Supreme Dragon Transformation is indeed your ancestor, Ye Cangsheng.” ƒrēenovelkiss.com

The Longevity Sect, though not as attentive to the affairs of Huangji Continent as the Wanxiang Sect, could not ignore the noticeable upheavals in Huangji Continent in recent years. Especially since many cultivators from Huangji Continent, affected by True Martial’s ‘Sixty-year Purging Demons,’ had no choice but to cross the seas and seek refuge in Fenglin Continent.

The arrival of these rogue cultivators naturally drew the attention of major sects like the Longevity Sect.

Through various investigations and intelligence exchanges with the Wanxiang Sect, it was not difficult to make such a determination.

But for Chijian, who had been wholeheartedly focused on cultivation, and who only recently managed to dispel part of his Heart Demon using Wang Ba’s ‘Heart Calming’ technique and successfully stepped into Immortal Ascension, he had not considered this possibility until encountering a rogue Nascent Soul cultivator parasitized by the ‘Suta Venerable Skill’ moments ago.

Wang Ba glanced at the lifeless body of the rogue cultivator beside Chijian, his curiosity piqued:

“Brother Chijian, how can you be certain Ye Cangsheng is still alive?”

Chijian snapped back to his senses and did not hide the truth, pointing to the rogue Nascent Soul cultivator nearby:

“Within the Ye Family, there are three major Void Refining Dharmas, one of which is called the Suta Venerable Skill. After cultivation, the soul becomes vast enough to project itself thousands of miles away, forcibly possessing cultivators… This rogue Nascent Soul cultivator was controlled in precisely this manner.”

Upon hearing this, the others could not help but furrow their brows. Liang Wuji asked hesitantly:

“So you’re saying the rogue cultivators scattered across Jin and Fenglin Continent might all be under your ancestor’s control?”

Wang Ba, remembering Ji Lan’s report after Yang Que’s invasion of Huangji Continent, frowned and asked:

“But the previous Yang Que also seemed capable of controlling cultivators remotely. How can you be sure that the controller of this person is your ancestor?”

Faced with their questions, Chijian shook his head and replied:

“The Suta Venerable Skill cannot remotely control cultivators before reaching Immortal Ascension. Only upon reaching Immortal Ascension can this ability manifest, and even then, it can only target a few individuals at a time. Only upon advancing to Void Refining can one’s thoughts split to control a multitude of cultivators.”

He paused and continued:

“Just moments ago, this person remotely controlled numerous rogue cultivators to approach our sect. To achieve this, within the Ye Family, only Ye Cangsheng has the capability.”

When he uttered the name ‘Ye Cangsheng,’ his tone carried no hint of respect; instead, it bore a trace of resentment.

Sacrificing the offspring of his clan to ascend to The Heavens—this act, for Ye Cangsheng himself, represented an unwavering Dao-heart. But for Chijian, it was a heinous crime. He could only harbor hatred for his inability to personally decapitate Ye Cangsheng.

Upon hearing this, the crowd exchanged glances with heavy expressions, each perceiving a shared gravity in the other’s eyes.

“If that’s the case, then we can be certain that Supreme Dragon Transformation is Ye Cangsheng.”

“But if these rogue cultivators can potentially be possessed by Ye Cangsheng…”

Liang Wuji’s tone grew somber, and a trace of worry flickered in his eyes.

Zhao Feng, the Sect Master of the Wanxiang Sect, voiced his thoughts in a grave tone:

“I fear we may never know peace again.”

The Three Sects and One Clan, after all, do not exist in isolation from the world. Although most of their sect’s material needs can be self-sufficient or fulfilled through internal trade, it is inevitable to engage with outside cultivators.

Beyond acquiring low-class materials through exchanges with rogue cultivators, young disciples require training, broadening their horizons, and gaining insight into human nature.

Only in this way can they progress further on the path of cultivation.

The presence of rogue cultivators greatly satisfies these two needs.

This is why rogue cultivators and minor sects still exist within the territory of Jin.

It is also the reason for the continued presence of numerous vassal states.

If the surrounding rogue cultivators can be seized by Ye Cangsheng at any time, this poses a significant threat, both from the perspective of young disciple safety and overarching sect security.

“Should we temporarily drive these rogue cultivators away, then?”

Xiong Zhaojing of Youxian Temple could not help but suggest.

At Xiong Zhaojing’s proposal, Liang Wuji’s face showed a hint of agreement.

Zhao Feng pondered silently for a moment, refraining from speaking immediately. Instead, he turned to Qin Yunjian:

“Brother Qin, what do you think?”

Qin Yunjian glanced around, noticing that Qin Lingxiao had left at some point. He secretly lamented his predicament; he only understood cultivation and had no opinions on such matters. Put on the spot, he was entirely at a loss.

He could only respond helplessly:

“Allow me to consult with the master of my clan.”

Gripping the Spirit Rhinoceros Stone, just as he was about to speak—

Wang Ba suddenly interrupted:

“Wait, I happen to have something else to say, which you may add to your report to your clan master.”

Qin Yunjian looked slightly puzzled.

Liang Wuji and Xiong Zhaojing also watched curiously.

Zhao Feng and Ji Ying, along with other senior members of Wanxiang Sect, seemed to have an inkling of the matter. They exchanged glances but remained silent.

Wang Ba did not keep them in suspense. He quickly disclosed the matter of the ‘Earthly Cataclysm,’ though he omitted mentioning Xuan Yuanzi’s involvement.

“This issue was once brought up by Sect Master Zhao and former Sect Master Qu…”

Liang Wuji frowned in recollection and then sighed helplessly:

“It’s not that we doubt Taoist Friend, but those in our sect who dabble in the Divination Path have thoroughly deduced and found nothing. Consequently, we have only taken minor precautions…”
