Living in the Doomsday and Becoming an Immortal Alone

Chapter 1067 - 486: Immortal Beetle

Wang Jixuan asked quietly, "Brother Mo, do you perhaps want me to ascend from here and report to the corresponding Ascension Platform?""Indeed, indeed!"

The Fat Immortal winked at Wang Jixuan:

"This matter will do you no harm and will make me proud.

"Once I achieve fulfillment in this world and return to the Immortal Realm, we can cultivate together.

"Of course, I’m just a Loose Immortal, having failed halfway to achieving the Tao, so I’ll need your guidance someday, Brother Qin!"

Wang Jixuan chuckled to himself.

Calling each other brothers already?

This Fat Immortal sure has a way with people.

Daoist Wang continued drinking with him and asked about many things related to the Immortal Realm.

Not long after, the Fat Immortal Mao Mo began to speak sincerely, with some emotion in his eyes, saying things like ’Loose Immortals have no Immortal authority’ and ’Loose Immortals are looked down upon’.

He really wanted to make an investment in ’Qin Zheng’.

As for whether this investment could be recouped...

It was just a bit of goodwill and some affection, nothing much to lose for Mao Mo.

Wang Jixuan took the opportunity to ask about the Dark Sect and Tianluo, but Mao Mo was somewhat evasive.

"Ah, these two organizations, how should I put it."

Mao Mo took a sip of wine and wrapped his arm around the maid pouring beside him, then realizing his actions were a bit reckless, he casually pushed two young girls into Wang Jixuan’s arms.

Daoist Wang hastily refused, a bit flustered, while Mao Mo laughed heartily, as if teasing Wang Jixuan for being so uptight.

"Hey, this is the Mortal World. These girls all want to catch some Immortal aura and ascend in one step."

Mao Mo said nonchalantly:

"No need to be restrained. If you don’t fancy these ordinary girls, once our sect is established, we can find some female disciples with abundant spirit light to cultivate from a young age."

Wang Jixuan: ...

What kind of Demon Cult is this!

Don’t let him misunderstand the founders of ordinary sects!

Mao Mo returned to the previous topic:

"According to Immortal Realm rumors, it was the Heavenly Dao, which wasn’t supposed to appear in the present world, dissatisfied with the Eight Great Immortal Palaces for not obeying its orders, and thus it created two organizations, one black and one white.

"However, there’s also a rumor that Tianluo and the Dark Sect have existed since ancient times, under different names, naturally existing tribes dedicated to safeguarding the Heavenly Dao.

"There’s another rumor that I think is more credible.

"It’s said that the big shots from the Eight Great Immortal Palaces gathered to predict future calamities, discovering that about 600,000 years later, there would be an Infinite Tribulation, leading to the collapse of the Immortal Realm and the annihilation of the Great Path, so they all contributed to setting up Tianluo to maintain world order and delay the tribulations.

"Later, as Tianluo became more active, waging wars against Evil Demons all over, the demons were forced to unite, forming the Dark Sect."

Wang Jixuan slowly nodded.

Mao Mo took a sip of wine and exhaled lightly:

"But I’ve heard that these two can directly communicate with the Heavenly Dao.

"That’s incredible. If the Heavenly Dao gives them just a bit of insight, wouldn’t they take off right on the spot?

"It’s fortunate, though. Although both Tianluo and the Dark Sect have their headquarters in the Immortal Realm, they’re generally low-key there and rarely communicate with the outside world. Only the high-ups of the Eight Great Immortal Palaces have free access to the secret places of Tianluo and the Dark Sect.

"The Dark Sect isn’t a good thing, and neither is Tianluo.

"The Dark Sect is utterly evil, with a doctrine seeking to restructure order by breaking obstinacy and uses the power consumed by the world’s creatures to delay the arrival of the great calamity.

"Tianluo is deceitfully evil, flaunting justice and order, swindling and tricking everywhere. But what is justice, and what kind of order benefits Heaven and Earth? They won’t specify, only flexibly adjusting their standards.

"In short, they’re all no good."

Wang Jixuan laughed, "Brother, that’s insightful!"

"Hahaha, in the Immortal Realm, everyone drinks and idly chatters when bored."

"Brother, if I joined Tianluo, would I have a chance to avenge the sect?"

"Difficult."

Mao Mo shook his head, taking a bite of food, muttering:

"As far as I know, although these two have different ideologies, one about order and the other about chaos, they both place restrictions on their envoys to prevent easy outbreaks of conflict."

Wang Jixuan slightly leaned back.

Goodness, haven’t these two directly fought 600,000 years ago?

So why did they fight later?

Too many accumulated contradictions, only erupting in bloodshed?

The Daoist didn’t understand, only offering blessings, wishing that the high-ups of these two factions would fight till their heads break and bleed, while the lower-level employees working in the mortal world live long and prosper.

Wang Jixuan also knew that he couldn’t delve deeper, so he sighed softly, "When will I be able to avenge the sect?"

"Cultivate!"

Mao Mo laughed:

"Once you enter the Golden Immortal Realm, you’ll become a significant figure in the Immortal Realm, and you can then settle scores with those enemies.

"However, those enemies must live until then."

"I’ll take your kind words as a blessing, my elder brother."

"So, how about it?" Mao Mo raised his eyebrows, "Are you going to accept the position of Vice Sect Leader of my sect?"

Wang Jixuan was caught off guard.

But he didn’t refuse; instead, he lifted his wine cup and toasted.

"Then I’ll rely on your care, elder brother, from now on!"

"I care for you, you care for me, and we’ll just muddle along, hahaha! Come, let’s drink heartily! Tomorrow we’ll choose a location, establish a sect, recruit disciples, and spread the Tao! We must outshine those five completely!"

"Great! Let’s become bigger and stronger, and achieve glory again!"

The two clinked glasses forcefully and drank heartily.

Around the Ascending Immortal Platform, the vibrant dances and music played, and on the platform, wines were exchanged in celebration.

As their slightly inebriated voices carried on, it seemed that pavilions and palaces suddenly rose from the distant green mountains, layer upon layer, surrounded by clouds and mist.

Midway up the green mountain, a giant mountain gate made of white jade stood tall, inscribed with...

[Heavenly Evil].

Wang Jixuan stood in front of this gate, looking at the smug Fat Immortal, his mouth twitching hard.

Wait, is this a righteous sect?

The mountain gate’s name must align with a second-rate force in the Immortal Realm, as per the rules of spreading the Tao and magic.

But this... ah, this...

Wang Jixuan’s Primordial Spirit was scratching its head.

It seems I’ve boarded a pirate ship.

...

"Good heavens, Heavenly Evil Sect, Hundred Joy Sect, Jueqing Valley, Ten Thousand Bone Cave, Yellow Flower Temple, Banshan Sect..."

Zheng Shiduo was entirely stunned looking at the names of these six new sects Wang Jixuan presented.

"Brother Wang, are these reputable and righteous sects? This looks more like Immortal Realm demons coming to the Lower Realm to raise Gu, right?"

The other attendees at the meeting each smiled.

Wang Jixuan shook his head with a dark face.

He was using an Alien Soul to attend this meeting, while his main body was stationed at the Heavenly Evil Sect’s mountain gate that was just about to start recruiting disciples.

Though he was the Vice Sect Leader, he didn’t manage sect affairs at all, simply serving as a figurehead to maintain appearances.

The Fat Immortal Mao Mo had roped him in mainly to aid him in ascension and to have someone to rely on in the Immortal Realm, gaining a friend, and indirectly counting as Mao Mo’s ’political achievement.’

Returning his attention to the meeting table.

Mu Dan chuckled: "Though the names might not sound good, from my observation, they haven’t done anything like indiscriminate killing; they’re quite diligent in their work."

Red Snake rolled his eyes: "Of course, spreading magic in the Immortal Realm is a major event, surely set by the Eight Great Immortal Palaces. They wouldn’t dare act recklessly. Listen to these sect names; clearly, it’s a case of evil paths undergoing Ascension to cleanse themselves."

"Hahaha!"

Wang Jixuan was amused by Red Snake’s words too.

Luckily, he could ascertain that Wangxian Valley was not fundamentally an evil sect.

Their cultivation techniques were quite righteous.

"Alright, you called me back for the meeting; is there any progress?"

"Yes," Amina smiled slightly, "take a look at this, Mu Dan’s latest masterpiece."

The image on the projecting screen changed, revealing a...

A large beetle?

This object was about half a meter in length, with sharp mandibles, blade limbs, and a few thin wings on its back.

It looked somewhat like an improved version of a Blade Beast.

"This is a bionic robot, the Immortal Beetle."

Mu Dan introduced with a mischievous smile:

"Two prototypes have already been assembled, and there’s room for improvement; soon it can be mass-produced on an assembly line.

"But I think I should report to you now, boss, look!

"Its electronic module is integrated into a Demon Core, surrounded by bionic designs and various Spiritual Energy Circuits; they’re more useful than Blade Beasts, and don’t rely on the plundering of human souls. Only a tiny conversion of spiritual energy to electric energy is needed to maintain its system operations.

"I’m confident that within a hundred iterations, it can completely crush the Blade Beast Civilization."

Wang Jixuan raised an eyebrow slightly: "Can this thing change the world?"

"Uh, I’m afraid not," Mu Dan adjusted eyeglass frames without lenses, "but it will be part of our efforts to transform this terrible cultivation world."

"Produce it quickly."

"Yes!"
