Data cultivation, I observe immortality in the five elements

Three days later, at Fenghai, on Huoma Island.

Under Fox Nine-Ge's arrangement, all the island lords of the Wind and Sea Islands were quickly summoned.

However, at this moment, there were only a few hundred island lords in the main hall, not all the island lords of the Wind and Sea Islands in person.

Because all the cultivators present were leaders of their respective factions, they could represent the entire Wind Sea Islands with full authority.

Behind each of them stands at least several, or even dozens, island owners' interest groups banding together.

The main hall was noisy, with many island lords gathered in small groups to reminisce, seemingly unaffected by the sea creatures' invasion.

After all, there are constant battles outside, but the people going to fight are not themselves, so there is nothing to worry about.

"Cough cough."

Fox Nine-Ge's eyes narrowed slightly, and he coughed twice. The surrounding noise immediately quieted down, and all the island lords stood obediently in place.

This was his authority as the senior disciple of the Feng Hai lineage; few dared to defy him.

"I have summoned you fellow disciples here today not for official business, but because I have been asked to do so by someone."

“The young master of the Hidden Star Pavilion told me that he has a good business deal and wants to talk to you about it, so he asked me to be the middleman.”

"This deal concerns the cultivation of the first six realms, which is not of much concern to someone like me, so I won't get involved."

"As for you, whether or not you agree is entirely up to you; I offer no advice."

Seeing that the island lords present had quieted down, Hu Jiuge directly stated his purpose.

His words caused a stir among the cultivators present, who were all curious as to why their senior brother was acting so strangely today.
Why did the young master of the Hidden Star Pavilion come to them?
Fox Nine-Girl ignored the island lord's questioning gaze below, instead turning to the black-clad youth beside her and speaking softly:

"Brother Murong, I've brought the people to you. Whether they'll agree or not is up to you."

After their conversation a few days ago, Hu Jiuge went back and carefully recalled the conversation, and guessed roughly what his old friend's intentions were.

If he wasn't mistaken, his old friend was getting anxious and was wary of the rising young master of the Star Gazing Hall.

That's why I thought of borrowing his power.

But Hu Jiuge knew that this was an internal struggle within the General Affairs Department. He could do a favor, but he absolutely could not get himself involved.

Even if they are best friends of many years, it won't work!
After all, the people from the Heavenly Mystery Hall are the most unreasonable.

Once this old friend's scheme failed, the position of the young master of the General Affairs Hall fell into the hands of the young master of the Star Gazing Hall.

At that time, as one of the implementers of this plan, he would inevitably be purged.

This is something Fox Nine Songs doesn't want to see.

He helped, and the one who benefited was Murong Ke, but he himself didn't gain much advantage and instead had to bear the risk of being retaliated against later.

This kind of business is unacceptable!
Even if they have a very deep friendship, they can't do anything about it!

So, after helping Murong Ke quell the commotion, Hu Jiuge nodded to him and then left.

It's fine to introduce someone to you, but it's absolutely unacceptable for him to place a bet on this old friend!

After all, the competition within the General Affairs Department is fierce, and a slight misstep could lead to disaster.

The risk is just too great; it's not worth it no matter how you look at it!
Furthermore, Hu Jiuge is an outsider who is also a close friend of Murong Ke, and knows more about the intricacies of the Heavenly Mystery Hall than many others.

Therefore, in this struggle for the position of young palace master, he saw things more clearly than Murong Ke, who was an insider.

In Hu Jiuge's eyes, the future successor of the General Affairs Hall is most likely not Murong Ke, nor the other two saints.

Instead, it was that young master of the Star Gazing Hall, who was currently unknown and weak.

He was very confident in his judgment!
Looking at the four halls of the General Affairs Hall, in the nearly one thousand years prior, apart from the vacancy of the young master of the Star Gazing Hall, the young masters of the remaining three halls—the Star Picking Hall, the Star Hiding Pavilion, and the Star Exploration Tower—have all succeeded to their positions.

One of them was his old friend Murong Ke.

These three were all the pride of their time, dominating their peers and renowned throughout the four seas.

From the moment they first emerged, the three of them have each been in charge of the three main halls of the General Affairs Department for nearly a thousand years, and this continues to this day.

It was truly a sight to behold!

Even Hu Jiuge himself was actually quite envious of his old friend, because he believed that his own strength was no less than that of his friend.

However, the power represented by the Hidden Star Pavilion is far beyond that of forces like the Wind and Sea Islands.

An ordinary disciple of the Heavenly Mystery Hall could easily overpower ten ordinary island lords and still win.

That's the difference between the two!

At that time, Hu Jiuge admitted that she was envious and jealous.

But with the return of the young master of the Star Gazing Hall, and the series of actions he took after taking over the Star Gazing Hall.

Fox Nine-Girl suddenly realized that perhaps the position of the young master of the General Affairs Hall was reserved for this mysterious junior brother.

The easiest piece of evidence is that Venerable Lilong of the Heavenly Mystery Hall had already taken control of all four departments of the Heavenly Mystery Hall when he was still in the Void Refining Realm, suppressing the older disciples of the previous generation who dared not utter a sound.

It should be noted that at that time, Venerable Lilong was merely a cultivator in the Void Refinement Realm!

However, the four halls of the General Affairs Department engaged in open and covert struggles for over a thousand years during this process.

They fought from the Refinement Realm to the Integration Realm, but still couldn't determine a winner.
On a grander scale, the Three Saints of Yanxing each govern a palace, and their reputations spread far and wide, making them incredibly powerful.

But looking closer, doesn't this mean that the so-called Three Saints of Star Evolution are nothing more than three extraordinary but mediocre talents?

After all, the three of them are evenly matched in strength, and none of them can defeat the others.

Otherwise, how could the three of them have fought for over a thousand years without achieving a real result?

As a result, the position of the young master of the General Affairs Hall has been delayed for a long time!
In the eyes of outsiders, the Three Saints of Yanxing must be powerful saints to have such a great reputation!
But in the eyes of those supreme elders and old monsters, wasn't this a kind of deficiency in their abilities?
They are still far from being able to compete for the position of the young master of the General Affairs Hall!
These three are definitely not good people and are not suitable to take charge of such a large General Affairs Hall!

Fox Nine Songs guessed that in the eyes of that legendary Palace Master, the Three Saints of Star Evolution probably had long lost the right to inherit the position of Young Palace Master!

The fact that the three of them had been fighting for over a thousand years and none of them could defeat the other already speaks volumes.

Fox Nine-Ge made this guess because after he completely mastered the Wind and Sea lineage and ruled over the thousands of islands in the outer sea, he encountered many troublemakers who emerged and dealt with them one by one, and only then did he gradually come to understand this point.

If a sect leader or hall master cannot subdue the unruly and powerful individuals under his command, what right does he have to sit in that position?
One must either possess overwhelming power or exceptional talent to qualify for that position.

Otherwise, no one, whether above or below, inside or outside, will submit to him! Some things are truly difficult to understand without experiencing them firsthand.

Over the past three days, Hu Jiuge has gathered a considerable amount of information about the mysterious young master of the Star Gazing Hall.

The more Hu Jiuge read about his experiences, the more she realized that this person's talent and aptitude were unparalleled in thousands of years, and that he had already reached the Refinement Realm before the age of three hundred.

It is said that this person also possesses dozens of Great Dao Laws!

What terrifying talent!

This completely stunned Fox Nine-Ge!

Secondly, the young master's behavior in front of others at the Star Gazing Hall revealed his cold, ruthless, and merciless side.

With just a single act of intimidation and provocation, the island lord of the Red Sea lineage was utterly wiped out.

How domineering is this?
The young master of the Star Gazing Hall, internally, used peaceful and gentle methods to appease and manage the overall situation.
From any perspective, he is a born leader!
Its excellence is far superior to that of the current Three Saints of Star Evolution.

If it were Fox Nine-Ge herself, when choosing a successor, she would most likely choose a junior disciple who currently seems weak but has unlimited potential for future growth.

Compared to him, the Three Saints of the Stars are nothing but mediocre.

Thinking of this, a complex look flashed in Hu Jiuge's eyes. Although he was on good terms with Murong Ke, he did not intend to remind him.

Because it's not very meaningful!

Fox Nine-Garde knew that his old friend would never give up the fight for that position; it was his obsession!

Even so, this would go against the will of that White-Browed Ancestor.
"Alas, Brother Murong, I hope you can survive."

Fox Nine Songs sighed, he could understand his old friend's obsession. It wasn't that he had to fight for it, but that he absolutely had to fight for it!

If you don't compete, you'll fall behind!
If you don't fight, you will be purged, and in the end you will either become a marginal figure or be silently killed.

Their fate was destined to be tragic.

Fox Nine-Ge knew that even cultivators at their level often had no control over their own lives.

Their position not only represents supreme power, but is also often linked to resources, namely the distribution of immortal jade.

If a cultivator at the Integration Realm wants to continue cultivating, they must begin to refine their immortal body and transform their spirit into an immortal.

However, the quantity of Immortal Jade is extremely limited. Even for him, the number of Immortal Jade he obtains every hundred years is only a few dozen.

This little bit of immortal jade is not enough to even begin cultivating an immortal body, let alone to refine one's immortal body.

But once you seize the position of young palace master, it will be a completely different story.

When refining an immortal body, immortal jade can be supplied in unlimited quantities!
This supply of resources alone can save thousands of years of time for cultivation at the Integration Realm!
Who wouldn't be moved by it?
If it were Fox Nine-Ge himself, he would also have to fight for it!
"This test will be difficult for Brother Murong."

"But aren't I the same?" Fox Nine Songs murmured.

Thinking of the old fogies he would have to face next, he couldn't help but sigh again, a sense of helplessness flashing through his heart.

Compared to those old fogies, what does he have to compete with?

The Heavenly Secrets Palace needs an absolute prodigy to control that giant ship and suppress all who dare to disobey.

As long as you have exceptional strength, can subdue all those who disagree, or can outmaneuver others with your strategies, you can rise through the ranks.

This is a very difficult road, similar to a thousand troops crossing a single-plank bridge, but there is a glimmer of hope.

However, the Fenghai lineage, or rather other main lineages, are completely different.

This is because it's a place where seniority matters; whoever has a higher cultivation level receives more immortal jade.

The older the person, the more immortal jade they receive.
Fox Nine Songs is only a little over 1,400 years old this year. How can he compare with those immortal beings who have lived for three or four thousand years, or even six or seven thousand years?
"Which old geezer made this rule? Why is it so difficult for me to obtain more immortal jade for cultivation?!"

"Does one have to wait until they reach a certain position, cultivate their skills, or grow old?"

Fox Nine-Girl's face was contorted with rage, even showing signs of gnashing her teeth.

Without enough immortal jade in hand, he could sense that his cultivation level had not improved for a long time.

Is it because he doesn't practice diligently?

it's not true!

It is limited by the universe!
Even though Hu Jiuge has pride, ambition, and talent, without the Immortal Jade, it is wishful thinking for him to continue cultivating!

This is why, within the Five Elements Sect, apart from a small number of scions of immortal families who have powerful backers, there are no other hall masters.

Most of the Supreme Elders with profound cultivation levels are either old men or middle-aged people who are about to enter old age.

Because the Five Elements Sect has too many powerful members, and the immortal jade absorbed by the Five Finger Mountain is extremely limited, it is not enough for the powerful members of the sect to share!

That's why we've ended up in this situation today.

At this moment, a hint of envy flashed in Hu Jiuge's eyes. Although he had guessed the truth, he did not think highly of his old friend.

But at least if the other party dares to fight for it, there is a sliver of a chance.

After all, the Heavenly Mystery Hall is the most unreasonable place, but also the most reasonable!
As long as the other three competitors are crushed and killed, the position of Young Palace Master will naturally be within my grasp.

But Hu Jiuge is different; even if he wanted to compete, he wouldn't have the qualifications.

Because every hundred years, the Immortal Jade would be directly distributed to them.

Unless Hu Jiuge has the ability to overturn the system of the Fenghai lineage and the rules of the Five Elements Sect.

With his current strength, he doesn't even have the right to challenge these old rules and corrupt systems!

At this moment, Hu Jiuge even felt a sense of despair!
He seemed to see himself thousands of years in the future, finally gathering enough immortal jade for his cultivation.
"A great calamity is coming soon!"

Fox Nine-Ge's eyes were cold and sharp, and he was extremely anxious. He thought of many things.

Normally, he would have no choice but to accept his fate, slowly look for opportunities to collect immortal jade, and then break through to the Tribulation Transcending Realm.

But now, the great calamity of fate is like a deadly snare; if we continue to wait, it will truly become a slow death.

He needs to start thinking about his future.
"Do I still have a chance?"

"I think there's probably no chance." (End of Chapter)
