To achieve immortality, I cultivate using Qi Luck

Changqing Mountain.

Since 70,000 years ago when the Changqing Immortal established his domain and set up the Changqing Taoist System, this mountain has always been the ancestor of the myriad immortal mountains within the domain, the source of the Dao Law.

After 70,000 years of management, gathering the earth veins of thirty-nine countries and accumulating the vitality of ten thousand years, Changqing Mountain had grown to ten thousand zhang high, stretching tens of thousands of li, with the mountain itself being a country.

Such an immortal mountain, naturally, attracted countless cultivators desiring to refine their qi, drawing numerous people to cultivate in seclusion here.

Indeed it was so.

The widely circulated "Records of Changqing Mountain" contain a phrase that aptly describes the flourishing scene of immortal cultivation in Changqing Mountain.

’Gathering talents from the ten domains within the sea, drawing the finest of Heaven and Earth, grasping the blessings of the realm, harboring endless treasures, receiving the homage of ten thousand immortals.’

In just one sentence, it had vividly narrated the past splendor of Changqing Mountain.

To translate, it means Changqing gathered all the talents from the Region Continent, thus favored by Heaven and Earth, monopolizing the realm’s blessings, possessing countless rare treasures, receiving homage from ten thousand immortals.

This was not an exaggeration, but a description of facts from ten thousand years ago.

While the Changqing Immortal was still alive, Changqing Mountain was exactly as described.

However, all this slowly became a thing of the past and dissipated with the wind following the demise of the Changqing Immortal.

In recent centuries, the Changqing Immortal Sect couldn’t even gather talents from within the Changqing Domain, let alone from the entire Region Continent.

The absence of a new Great True Person in nearly ten thousand years also indicated that the Changqing Immortal Sect had lost the favor of the Heavenly Path.

The opportunities within the domain were divided among three groups: Changqing Immortal Sect, Jiuzhou Immortal Gate, and Taiping Dao.

The inflow of various rare treasures also dwindled, and the treasury gradually emptied.

Without people, without Heavenly Mandate, without opportunities, without treasures, naturally, the strength declined and it could no longer invite ten thousand immortals to pay homage.

The domain was hence in great chaos.

The decline of the Changqing Immortal Sect, from the abovementioned record, was vividly demonstrated.

But even a dying camel is bigger than a horse.

Although the Changqing Immortal Sect was in decline, without the grand occasion of ten thousand immortals paying homage, it was still the number one Immortal Sect in the domain during its decline, with over a thousand cultivators residing within the mountain gate, the atmosphere still remarkable.

But this was the appearance before the war.

At least, after the war broke out with the Jiuzhou Immortal Gate, most of the defending cultivators in Changqing Mountain were pulled away, many of whom died on the frontline.

Recently, due to the recovery of strength in Jiuzhou, the atmosphere on the frontline had become tense again, with frequent frictions between the two sects.

To enhance the frontline strength, the Changqing Immortal Sect had no choice but to extract more personnel from the sect, pulling away another hundred people.

These few rounds of personnel extraction had quickly turned the once bustling Changqing Mountain, where immortals gathered and Qingyun soared, chillingly silent.

Only over a hundred people remained in the sect, each with their own duties, not only to manage all affairs and properties within but also to guard against external stealth attacks, the responsibility of which cannot be simply described.

A hundred days without sleep, that’s what this place was about.

The decline of Changqing Mountain had reached its peak at this time.

Fortunately, in recent days, this situation had been reversed.

Although the previous Head Teacher had passed away, the succession within the sect was organized early on, and the successor was determined.

Immortal Yao had departed, but Master Song was still here.

After stabilizing the frontline operations, Master Song returned to the Mountain Gate, immediately started to stabilize the morale, and began preparations for the succession ceremony, ready to take over as the Head Teacher, to continue controlling the hearts of the people under the heavens.

As the victor of this great war, although the Changqing Immortal Sect suffered great losses in troops and severe casualties, with its strength reduced to a quarter and its vitality severely drained,

outwardly, the Changqing Immortal Sect had greatly defeated Jiuzhou, capturing four countries firmly expanding its territory.

In the process, although the Head Teacher was killed, Yao Baojuan, before his death, had inflicted severe damage on Jiuzhou’s leaders, leaving them not far from death.

And after the war, the Changqing Immortal Sect’s strength remained substantial, with two Earth Immortals, eight Human Immortals, and six thousand cultivators stationed on the frontline, pressing Jiuzhou so hard they dared not make a move.

In the rear, there were also a few thousand disciples left behind, totaling three to four thousand people.

The entire Changqing Immortal Sect, despite such losses, still had profound depth, able to muster ten True Immortals and over ten thousand cultivators.

Moreover, Jiuzhou’s previous core strength, the Azure Dragon Sect’s Wang Chengfeng, this Mid-stage Earth Immortal cultivator, had perished in the conflict with the Changqing Immortal Sect.

Another influential figure, Meng Jianshan, was also critically injured and dying, unlikely to live much longer.

After his demise, Jiuzhou would be left with only one Early-stage Earth Immortal, Ding Wanxuan.

Maintaining neutrality, tucked in the Southern Domain, Taiping Dao’s Elder Taishang, Qing Guanzi, was also only an Early-stage Earth Immortal.

On the other hand, the Changqing Immortal Sect still had Song Xiren and his junior brother, totaling two Earth Immortals.

Especially Song Xiren, with the death of Wang Chengfeng and the fall of Meng Jianshan. As a Mid-stage Earth Immortal, he would soon become the foremost expert of the entire Changqing Domain.

It was foreseeable that he alone could suppress the entire domain with his strength in the future.

With his strength, together with the remaining power of the Changqing Immortal Sect and the spoils of war taken from Jiuzhou, as well as the imminent reaping of those nine affiliated sects,

all these factors combined, no matter how you look at it, suggest that in the next five thousand years, the Changqing Immortal Sect was on a trajectory of great prosperity.

Under such circumstances, the Changqing Immortal Sect organizing the succession ceremony, the neighboring friendly forces were naturally happy to come and support the event.

However, those Heavenly Immortal Sects, due to orders from the Great True Person, still did not come but sent gifts to express their sentiments.
