Reverend Insanity

Wu‌ ‌clan’s‌ ‌Zhong‌ ‌Yi,‌ ‌Wu‌ ‌Shen‌ ‌Tong,‌ ‌Divine‌ ‌Doctor‌ ‌Sheng‌ ‌Shou,‌ ‌Wei‌ ‌Shen‌ ‌Jing,‌ ‌and‌ ‌others‌ ‌became‌ ‌rank‌ ‌six‌ ‌Gu‌ ‌Immortals,‌ ‌there‌ ‌were‌ ‌a‌ ‌total‌ ‌of‌ ‌nine‌ ‌people‌ ‌who‌ ‌succeeded,‌ ‌this‌ ‌was‌ ‌the‌ ‌number‌ ‌one‌ ‌record‌ ‌in‌ ‌the‌ ‌five‌ ‌regions!‌ ‌‌

Wu‌ ‌clan‌ ‌was‌ ‌lacking‌ ‌Gu‌ ‌Immortals‌ ‌previously,‌ ‌but‌ ‌under‌ ‌Wu‌ ‌Yong’s‌ ‌reform,‌ ‌they‌ ‌took‌ ‌in‌ ‌a‌ ‌large‌ ‌number‌ ‌of‌ ‌external‌ ‌elders.‌ ‌‌

With‌ ‌these‌ ‌Gu‌ ‌Immortals’‌ ‌presence,‌ ‌Wu‌ ‌clan‌ ‌immediately‌ ‌became‌ ‌the‌ ‌Southern‌ ‌Border’s‌ ‌super‌ ‌force‌ ‌with‌ ‌the‌ ‌most‌ ‌number‌ ‌of‌ ‌Gu‌ ‌Immortals!‌ ‌‌

Immediately,‌ ‌all‌ ‌sorts‌ ‌of‌ ‌congratulatory‌ ‌letters‌ ‌from‌ ‌various‌ ‌forces‌ ‌were‌ ‌sent‌ ‌to‌ ‌Wu‌ ‌Yong‌ ‌via‌ ‌treasure‌ ‌yellow‌ ‌heaven‌ ‌or‌ ‌information‌ ‌path‌ ‌Gu‌ ‌worms.‌ ‌‌

Wu‌ ‌clan‌ ‌gained‌ ‌a‌ ‌huge‌ ‌amount‌ ‌of‌ ‌fame‌ ‌but‌ ‌Wu‌ ‌Yong‌ ‌only‌ ‌snickered‌ ‌coldly‌ ‌without‌ ‌feeling‌ ‌happy‌ ‌at‌ ‌all.‌ ‌‌

“Such‌ ‌celebrations‌ ‌are‌ ‌just‌ ‌a‌ ‌form‌ ‌of‌ ‌self-consolation‌ ‌for‌ ‌the‌ ‌chaotic‌ ‌future‌ ‌under‌ ‌the‌ ‌rule‌ ‌of‌ ‌the‌ ‌venerables.‌ ‌So‌ ‌what‌ ‌if‌ ‌we‌ ‌have‌ ‌more‌ ‌Gu‌ ‌Immortals,‌ ‌can‌ ‌we‌ ‌be‌ ‌safe?‌ ‌Against‌ ‌the‌ ‌venerables,‌ ‌we‌ ‌are‌ ‌all‌ ‌ants.”‌ ‌‌

“Moreover,‌ ‌in‌ ‌terms‌ ‌of‌ ‌numbers,‌ ‌Heavenly‌ ‌Court,‌ ‌Longevity‌ ‌Heaven,‌ ‌and‌ ‌the‌ ‌Heaven‌ ‌and‌ ‌Earth‌ ‌Great‌ ‌Love‌ ‌Alliance‌ ‌definitely‌ ‌have‌ ‌the‌ ‌most‌ ‌number‌ ‌of‌ ‌immortal‌ ‌ascensions.‌ ‌They‌ ‌are‌ ‌huge‌ ‌and‌ ‌possess‌ ‌too‌ ‌many‌ ‌super‌ ‌forces‌ ‌under‌ ‌them.”‌ ‌‌

Wu‌ ‌Yong‌ ‌was‌ ‌extremely‌ ‌clear‌ ‌of‌ ‌the‌ ‌situation.‌ ‌‌

He‌ ‌knew‌ ‌that‌ ‌the‌ ‌true‌ ‌trial‌ ‌was‌ ‌not‌ ‌the‌ ‌number‌ ‌of‌ ‌successful‌ ‌immortal‌ ‌ascensions,‌ ‌it‌ ‌was‌ ‌the‌ ‌huge‌ ‌impact‌ ‌that‌ ‌these‌ ‌new‌ ‌external‌ ‌supreme‌ ‌elders‌ ‌would‌ ‌cause‌ ‌after‌ ‌joining‌ ‌Wu‌ ‌clan,‌ ‌when‌ ‌they‌ ‌go‌ ‌against‌ ‌the‌ ‌traditional‌ ‌factions‌ ‌that‌ ‌had‌ ‌been‌ ‌long‌ ‌established‌ ‌through‌ ‌time.‌ ‌‌

As‌ ‌the‌ ‌first‌ ‌supreme‌ ‌elder‌ ‌of‌ ‌Wu‌ ‌clan,‌ ‌Wu‌ ‌Yong‌ ‌needed‌ ‌to‌ ‌maintain‌ ‌the‌ ‌stability‌ ‌of‌ ‌the‌ ‌clan,‌ ‌if‌ ‌there‌ ‌was‌ ‌too‌ ‌many‌ ‌internal‌ ‌conflicts,‌ ‌they‌ ‌would‌ ‌weaken‌ ‌themselves.‌ ‌In‌ ‌that‌ ‌case,‌ ‌he‌ ‌might‌ ‌as‌ ‌well‌ ‌not‌ ‌implement‌ ‌this‌ ‌change.‌ ‌‌

Central‌ ‌Continent.‌ ‌‌

Xiao‌ ‌Qi‌ ‌Xing‌ ‌descended‌ ‌from‌ ‌the‌ ‌sky.‌ ‌There‌ ‌was‌ ‌some‌ ‌dust‌ ‌on‌ ‌his‌ ‌white‌ ‌robe.‌ ‌‌

His‌ ‌eyebrows‌ ‌were‌ ‌sharp‌ ‌like‌ ‌swords,‌ ‌his‌ ‌body‌ ‌was‌ ‌straight‌ ‌like‌ ‌a‌ ‌spear,‌ ‌his‌ ‌expression‌ ‌was‌ ‌cold‌ ‌and‌ ‌he‌ ‌gave‌ ‌off‌ ‌an‌ ‌aura‌ ‌of‌ ‌pride.‌ ‌‌

“Good,‌ ‌good,‌ ‌good.”‌ ‌Gu‌ ‌Immortal‌ ‌Xiao‌ ‌Bai‌ ‌Hong‌ ‌laughed‌ ‌as‌ ‌he‌ ‌stroked‌ ‌his‌ ‌beard,‌ ‌looking‌ ‌at‌ ‌Xiao‌ ‌Qi‌ ‌Xing‌ ‌with‌ ‌a‌ ‌gaze‌ ‌of‌ ‌appreciation:‌ ‌”As‌ ‌expected‌ ‌of‌ ‌my‌ ‌beloved‌ ‌great-grandson.‌ ‌You‌ ‌went‌ ‌through‌ ‌the‌ ‌immortal‌ ‌ascension‌ ‌without‌ ‌external‌ ‌help.”‌ ‌‌

Xiao‌ ‌Qi‌ ‌Xing‌ ‌replied:‌ ‌”Great-grandfather,‌ ‌this‌ ‌is‌ ‌nothing‌ ‌to‌ ‌be‌ ‌proud‌ ‌of.‌ ‌Many‌ ‌lone‌ ‌cultivators‌ ‌could‌ ‌achieve‌ ‌it,‌ ‌so‌ ‌why‌ ‌can’t‌ ‌I?‌ ‌Rank‌ ‌six‌ ‌is‌ ‌merely‌ ‌the‌ ‌starting‌ ‌point.”‌ ‌‌

“Hahaha,‌ ‌well‌ ‌said!”‌ ‌Xiao‌ ‌Bai‌ ‌Hong’s‌ ‌laughter‌ ‌became‌ ‌even‌ ‌louder.‌ ‌‌

Next,‌ ‌Xiao‌ ‌Qi‌ ‌Xing‌ ‌asked‌ ‌the‌ ‌other‌ ‌nine‌ ‌children‌ ‌of‌ ‌human‌ ‌path.‌ ‌‌

“What?‌ ‌Sun‌ ‌Yuan‌ ‌Hua,‌ ‌Gu‌ ‌Ting,‌ ‌and‌ ‌the‌ ‌rest‌ ‌became‌ ‌rank‌ ‌six‌ ‌Gu‌ ‌Immortals‌ ‌but‌ ‌did‌ ‌not‌ ‌refine‌ ‌their‌ ‌vital‌ ‌Gu‌ ‌into‌ ‌an‌ ‌Immortal‌ ‌Gu?”‌ ‌‌

“Hehe,‌ ‌they‌ ‌are‌ ‌really‌ ‌trash!”‌ ‌‌

Different‌ ‌from‌ ‌the‌ ‌others,‌ ‌the‌ ‌immortal‌ ‌ascension‌ ‌of‌ ‌the‌ ‌ten‌ ‌children‌ ‌of‌ ‌human‌ ‌path‌ ‌were‌ ‌kept‌ ‌secret.‌ ‌‌

They‌ ‌were‌ ‌the‌ ‌key‌ ‌to‌ ‌developing‌ ‌human‌ ‌path‌ ‌in‌ ‌Central‌ ‌Continent,‌ ‌they‌ ‌were‌ ‌the‌ ‌future‌ ‌pillars‌ ‌of‌ ‌human‌ ‌path.‌ ‌Before‌ ‌they‌ ‌grew‌ ‌to‌ ‌a‌ ‌certain‌ ‌level,‌ ‌it‌ ‌was‌ ‌better‌ ‌to‌ ‌let‌ ‌them‌ ‌grow‌ ‌safely.‌ ‌‌

Some‌ ‌succeeded‌ ‌in‌ ‌their‌ ‌immortal‌ ‌ascension,‌ ‌some‌ ‌died‌ ‌while‌ ‌taking‌ ‌risks.‌ ‌‌

Some‌ ‌made‌ ‌their‌ ‌ancestors‌ ‌proud,‌ ‌their‌ ‌names‌ ‌were‌ ‌spread‌ ‌throughout‌ ‌the‌ ‌world,‌ ‌while‌ ‌some‌ ‌kept‌ ‌quiet‌ ‌and‌ ‌developed‌ ‌earnestly,‌ ‌keeping‌ ‌a‌ ‌low‌ ‌profile.‌ ‌‌

Some‌ ‌did‌ ‌not‌ ‌try‌ ‌to‌ ‌undergo‌ ‌immortal‌ ‌ascension,‌ ‌like‌ ‌Feng‌ ‌Jin‌ ‌Huang.‌ ‌‌

Some‌ ‌did‌ ‌not‌ ‌even‌ ‌have‌ ‌the‌ ‌qualification‌ ‌to‌ ‌try,‌ ‌for‌ ‌example,‌ ‌Southern‌ ‌Border’s‌ ‌Xia‌ ‌Cha‌ ‌and‌ ‌Ba‌ ‌Shi‌ ‌Ba.‌ ‌‌
