Immortal Taoist Lord: My Cultivation Have No Limits

Chapter 618: 198 Take action! Establish power! _1
 

On the second day of the Ancestor of the Ji Family’s return, the edict of the Black Prison Immortal City had spread to all regions, ordering every force within the Black Prison Immortal City area to cease all personal duels from that day onwards. Anyone defying the order was to be executed!

In an instant, the founder of the Ji Family was deep in anger, his face as black as ink and gritting his teeth: “Is this directed at our Ji Family? On what grounds?”

A few moments later, the Head of the Ji Family, a number of Elders, and other Nascent Soul Ancestors gathered together.

When Ji Rusong, The Ancestor of the Ji Family, appeared, the Elders inside were in heated debate. Some were apprehensive, while others were extremely agitated and angry, though some were also quietly trying to mediate.

“What is this nonsense, the Ancestor apologizes to her one day, and the next she immediately prohibits private duels? Isn’t this a blatant attack on our Ji Family?”

“That’s Daozi of the Earth Immortal Mansion, lower your voice. Even if she issued an order to forbid private duels in Black Prison Immortal City, it might still be within her jurisdiction, it may not necessarily be aimed at us.”

“You’ve quite the patience, might as well act dead!”

“In my opinion, this order is no different from the previous ones, who listens to them? Ignoring it doesn’t really matter, even if Daozi really wanted to do something, would she dare do something to our Ji Family at the risk of insulting the dignity of Ancestor Hongchang? If everyone disobeys her, would she actually kill everyone in the Black Prison Immortal City? Could she handle that?”

“Ah, it’s unnecessary to do so. Our Ji Family just swallowed up the Wang Family, the most important thing right now is to consolidate our resources and markets rather than stir up trouble. We can use this time to observe what Daozi will do. If she does nothing, wouldn’t it be much safer for us to plan our next move then?”

The Nascent Soul Ancestors and the Family Head didn’t interrupt, they just quietly listened to the arguments among the Elders.

When Ji Rusong appeared, everyone stood up together and respectfully greeted him, “Ancestor, we pay our respects.”

Ji Rusong waved his hand and took a seat at the head of the room.

After collecting everyone’s thoughts, Ji Rusong contemplated for a moment before ordering, “The family should remain quiet for now. Focus on organizing the resources of the former Wang family.”

“However, let Qin’s Family continue to do as they please, no need to interfere.”

Qin’s Family is a small Core Formation realm family that has pledged loyalty to the Ji Family. Their power is not significant.

We can use the Qin family to probe what Daozi’s intentions truly are.

The Ji Family calm receded quickly.

Meanwhile, Daozi’s order had already spread outside, and although it had upset many forces, causing quite a few to express their anger, most assessed the situation and decided to follow the order for now, opting to wait and see how things would play out.

At least, those families and forces that had achieved the Nascent Soul Realm had noticeably dialed down their actions. Even the forces that were currently in the heat of battle decided to reluctantly retreat and regroup.

However, some forces didn’t take the order seriously at all, an example being the Qin Family under the Ji Family’s control.

Even after Daozi’s order was passed down, the Qin Family continued to aggressively attack another force. While the Ji Family was successfully expanding its territory, they also wanted a piece of the pie!

At Black Prison Immortal City, Su Yu told Fan Xiao to retreat from the world for a year and to handle official matters after a year.

“Those who achieve great things must keep their cool. Rushing things will get you nowhere. Let’s wait for the wind to pick up.” After leaving these words, Su Yu returned to cultivate on his own.

For the Five Elements Method of the Nascent Soul Realm level, Su Yu had only created up to the third layer, but he hadn’t been able to comprehend the rest of the skill yet.

Apart from that.

Once the Five Elements Method reached the Nascent Soul realm, the foundation was clearly not as dense as in the Core Formation realm because the Nascent Soul realm techniques that he had merged with were very few. Besides the Green Wood Year Ring Skill, all the other skills were still at the Nascent Soul realm stage.

He also needed to find a solution to later stage skill problems, and to find suitable alternatives for the upcoming stages.

The integration of enhancing the foundation and power of the Five Elements method during his daily practice was Su Yu’s top priority.

While Fan Xiao was retreating for a year waiting for the outside winds to blow, he went to the ten True Monarchs Immortal City through the teleportation array or returned to the Immortal Gate. Every time he went out, he brought back several Nascent Soul realm techniques.

Afterward, he stayed in the yard, using the leisure time during his cultivation and alchemy practice to comprehend the subtleties of the Nascent Soul Realm techniques one by one.

After a year, Su Yu barely managed to incorporate one earth-based Nascent Realm technique into the Five Elements Methods, slightly enhancing the power of the earth element method.

Upon the passing of a year.

When Fan Xiao emerged from her retreat, she did not summon Jiang Wen, Chen Zhoudao, and others but instead came to see Su Yu.

Su Yu gathered several rank-three Sky Thunder Rats.

In the yard.

Five rank-three Sky Thunder Rats reported one by one to Su Yu about the situations of all the forces that the Sky Thunder Rats had been monitoring over the year.

To Su Yu’s surprise, the Ji family had indeed not instigated any private duels or stirred up any trouble over the year.

“Master, the Ji family has indeed been quiet this year. However, the three Core Formation Realm families under the control of the Ji family have picked fights in succession. Especially, that Qin family, the Ji family secretly ordered them not to pay any heed to Daozi’s edict. Therefore, the Qin family has not stopped its aggression since the order was issued.”

“Now, the Bai family, which the Qin family has been attacking, has lost nearly half its territory to the Qin family.”

One Sky Thunder Rat finished reporting.

The other Sky Thunder Rats took turns reporting.

Up to now, in the Black Prison Immortal City, two forces possessing the Nascent Soul Realm True Monarchs have quietly started private duels, focusing on their ‘prey’ and have resumed fighting.
