Becoming a true immortal through my descendents' praying

Li Yao breathed a sigh of relief.

"So it’s Senior Brother Liu, Senior Sister Zhou, and Senior Brother Zheng..."

He descended and stood together with the three fellow sect members.

Outside, fellow sect members were the closest.

The two Senior Brothers and one Senior Sister were all at the stage of Foundation Establishment Perfection, possessing extremely formidable strength.

The leader among them was Senior Brother Liu Guangzhou, who joined the sect the earliest, had top-notch Dual Spirit Roots talent and specialized in the Gold Element magic.

He walked a few steps and stood in front of the two dead cultivators.

"These two men, we encountered yesterday... We wanted to test their abilities, but in the end, neither could overcome the other, so we each went our own ways. I did not expect that they would be killed today, stripped of all their treasures."

"Oh? Which sect’s cultivators were these two men? Judging by the marks left behind, this doesn’t look like the handiwork of any of the Ten Great Immortal Sects..."

Li Yao asked.

"Wood Charm Sect, a sect... that straddles between the Righteous and Demon Cultivators, known as Evil Cultivators. They were once one of the Ten Great Immortal Sects, but due to issues with their cultivation techniques, the other nine sects along with the Qingluo Immortal Sect annihilated them. The Qingluo Immortal Sect took over their sect and replaced them among the Ten Great Immortal Sects. Unexpectedly, there are still descendants of the Wood Charm Sect, and their strength is not much weaker than our sect’s."

Liu Guangzhou in the Heavenly Spirit Pavilion was a man of great knowledge and could explain various secrets.

"Indeed, we three faced two of them. Even though they had two treasures and the aid of elixirs, they were still able to fight us to a standstill... Their strength is extremely formidable," said Senior Sister Zhou.

"It’s also because we just entered the Immortal Palace, and we were cautious. If we had used our full strength yesterday... we would definitely have subdued the two," another Senior Brother Zheng said, somewhat unconvinced.

Li Yao nodded, which was almost what he had guessed.

Although these two men might not match up individually to the Heavenly Spirit Pavilion disciples, with the support of treasures and elixirs, their combat strength in the Dragon God Immortal Palace was still stronger than theirs.

Then, a terrifying question arose...

Liu Guangzhou frowned and said, "Junior Brother Li, if I’m not sensing wrong, the cultivator who killed these two men... was alone."

"That’s right, there are indeed signs of only one person acting, and the fight... wasn’t long, only about ten moves before the outcome was decided."

Hearing this, the three Heavenly Spirit Pavilion disciples frowned.

"If we encounter this person... our chances are slim, and there’s such a powerful expert in this Immortal Palace."

Li Yao looked at the wounds and the devastating Thunder Spiritual Power, a bold conjecture spiraled in his mind...

"It’s good that we encountered Junior Brother Li. With his Spiritual Sense warning, we should be able to escape in advance."

"Hmm, Junior Brother Li, could you tell which direction this top-level expert left in? It might be safer for us to go in the opposite direction," they said.

"Yes, yes, such an expert, probably an early entrant from other sects, not only is his strength formidable, but he has also encountered many fortunes. We need to avoid his edge!"

As the three senior sect members talked confidently, Li Yao became more certain of his conjecture.

Entered early, young prodigy, terrifying Thunder Spiritual Power... That must be Yang Fu!

Li Yao’s Spiritual Sense was very sensitive. Although this Thunder Spiritual Power had completely transformed into a more terrifying form, the slight difference in the Heavenly Tribulation aura... he had only seen it on Yang Fu!

His Thunder Spiritual Power was all elicited by Heavenly Tribulation!

Li Yao said, "Senior Brother, Senior Sister, I have a different opinion... I think we should pursue this person!"

"What? Why?"

"Junior Brother Li, don’t be overconfident! This person is not someone we can contend with!"

"This person is extremely vicious, certainly no good kind!"

After Liu Guangzhou finished, he asked again, "Junior Brother Li isn’t the foolish type, is there any reason?"

Li Yao’s lips curled into a smirk.

"Because we know this person."

All three said in unison, "Who!?"

"Do we have such a powerful cultivator in our sect?"

"Could it be Wu Yi from the Earth Spirit Pavilion? No, that’s not right...he doesn’t practice the Thunder Technique."

Li Yao, "Sister Zhou guessed half right, it’s a fellow disciple from the Earth Spirit Pavilion, but he practices the Thunder Technique, and... we have all seen him."

They all began to ponder deeply.

Earth Spirit Pavilion, Thunder Technique, power so formidable it was terrifying!

"No, there isn’t such a person, is there?"

"Could Brother Li be mistaken?"

Liu Guangzhou paused then suddenly thought of something.

"Are you trying to say this person is...Yang Fu?"

"Exactly!"

Li Yao nodded vigorously, he was almost ninety percent sure.

It was the confidence gained from decades of competing against each other.

Others knew Yang Fu was skilled in Thunder Technique, but he knew...Yang Fu was also adept in swordsmanship, and his physical strength was extremely terrifying.

The three of them had nearly the same expression upon hearing this.

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

"Even if it were Wu Yi from Earth Spirit Pavilion who came... he couldn’t have subdued the two so cleanly!"

"How could Yang Fu possibly do this? He is just at the Qi Refinement Realm! Even ten thousand layers of Qi Refinement are still just Qi Refinement Realm! He can’t mobilize the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Power!"

Brother Zheng was extremely disappointed, he hadn’t expected Li Yao to make such a blunder at this time.

Especially since they least liked Yang Fu, the cultivator from Earth Spirit Pavilion.

"Li Yao, are you so in favor of Yang Fu because he came first that year, leaving a shadow in your Dao heart?"

"Don’t forget, Master said, it was Yang Fu who drove Brother Feng to death!"

Upon hearing this, Liu Guangzhou raised his hand to stop him, "When we are outside, do not speak of things that could harm the unity of the sect... no matter how much you dislike him, it is still an internal matter of our sect, do not expose it to outsiders for their ridicule."

Li Yao nodded. Among his peers in the Heavenly Spirit Pavilion, he recognized Liu Guangzhou as a person of character.

The others... merely followed the crowd, harboring groundless hatred towards Yang Fu.

"But...Brother Li." Liu Guangzhou turned his head towards Li Yao and said, "Still, I can’t believe your hypothesis, so we cannot go in this direction."

"Then I’ll go alone."

Li Yao believed in himself.

Watching him fly away, the three became anxious.

Liu Guangzhou thought for a moment and felt it was too dangerous for Li Yao to go alone. As an older brother, he should protect them.

Then, gritting his teeth, "Let’s go! Brother Li’s Spiritual Sense is usually accurate, together we can exert the greatest strength."

Sister Zhou, "Sigh...he just admires Yang Fu too much, I don’t get it."

Brother Zheng, "If that master is Yang Fu, I’ll eat all the shit of the Earth Spirit Pavilion! Hmph!"

"Brother Li, wait for us!"

The three also followed him.
