I conquer the immortal with my strength.

Chapter 699 The Sect Leader Ascends the Throne, the Azure Feather Eagle King Attacks

In the blink of an eye, a month had passed since Xia Daoming returned to Langming County.

During this month, Xia Daoming spent his time not only cultivating himself, but also teaching and guiding others.

Yue Huang and Xiao Hongyi are already the Twelve True Immortals. Xiao Xuan and Lu Ziying have received Xia Daoming's careful guidance and top-quality elixirs and medicines. If nothing unexpected happens, they will be able to enter the Twelve Assemblies realm after a few more years of training.

This day.

Everyone gathered together.

“Daoming, these past few days, your Uncle Xiao, Aunt Zhongli, and I have discussed an important matter. We all feel that the Immortal Realm is vast and boundless, with many powerful figures. With my cultivation level, if I continue to sit in the position of sect leader, I will not be able to uphold the reputation of Qingyuan Sect. In fact, it may even damage the prestige of Qingyuan Sect in the future and make people look down on it!”
Moreover, in the Immortal Realm, the position of sect leader has always been held by the truly powerful. The sect leader is the highest authority in a sect, and everyone else is a disciple. Therefore, we all believe that the current environment is different from before, and our Qingyuan Sect should also make changes. You should take over as sect leader. Of course, we will still handle all the daily affairs, and you don't need to worry about trivial matters." Yue Huang said with a serious expression.

“That’s right. With Daoming here, our Qingyuan Sect will definitely be a powerful Golden Immortal force that is no less than the Flame Sparrow Demon Clan. In the future, we will face powerful Golden Immortal forces from all sides. We are not yet able to intimidate them or unite the hearts of the sect members. Therefore, the position of sect leader still needs to be taken by you.” Xiao Hongyi echoed.

Zhong Lishuyun and others also joined in the persuasion.

Seeing everyone's earnest enthusiasm, Xia Daoming pondered for a moment and then nodded: "Since that's the case, then I will take the position of sect leader. However, since everyone is confident that Qingyuan Sect will become a major force among Golden Immortals in the future, then why not rename Qingyuan Sect to Qingyuan Sect!"

"Good, from now on, Qingyuan Sect will be renamed Qingyuan Sect!" Yue Huang and the others praised the idea, their hearts filled with pride.

“Although Xiaolang Mountain is a bit small, it is full of immortal energy. There aren’t many people in our Qingyuan Sect right now, so let’s set up our mountain gate on Xiaolang Mountain for the time being!” Xia Daoming said.

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Then, everyone stood up at the same time and, led by Yue Huang, knelt down respectfully to Xia Daoming.

"Greetings, Master!"

Xia Daoming knew this was proper etiquette, so he did not stand up to defer, but sat solemnly and accepted this great courtesy.

After the ceremony, Xia Daoming stood up and helped Yue Huang, Xiao Hongyi, and Zhongli Shuyun to their feet.

"Everyone, please get up. Unless it's a special occasion, we don't need to perform this grand ceremony anymore," Xia Daoming said to the crowd after helping the three elders, Yue Huang, to their feet.

"We will obey the sect leader's decree!" Everyone rose as instructed.

As soon as everyone stood up, Xia Daoming sensed something and looked up towards the outside of the main hall.

"Sect Leader, what's wrong?" Yue Huang asked upon seeing this.

“Unless there are special circumstances, please call me by my name, Uncle-Master. It’s rather awkward for you to call me Sect Leader even in your own sect. And you two, Aunt-Master and Aunt-Master, should do the same.” Xia Daoming said, slightly taken aback.

"Fine then!" Yue Huang and the other two said helplessly.

"What is the Azure Feather Eagle King's style and behavior like?" Xia Daoming asked after the three elders agreed.

"Could it be that the Azure Feather Eagle King has arrived?" Yue Huang and the others asked, their expressions changing slightly.

“That’s right! It should be him,” Xia Daoming said calmly.

"Reporting to Master, apart from being extremely protective of his own, acting domineeringly, and indulging his subordinates, this Azure Feather Eagle King has never been known to commit any cruel and indiscriminate killings, nor does he have any sect or background."

However, this demon is said to have reached the Twelfth Stage of the Dao ten thousand years ago. Its demonic power is extremely strong, and it is also skilled in speed. Few people at the same level can defeat it, so no one would easily provoke it. "Xiao Xuan said.

“He has been stuck at the Twelve Realms for ten thousand years. It seems that he doesn’t have many years left,” Xia Daoming said thoughtfully upon hearing this.

"Daoming, do you perhaps want to subdue him?" Xiao Hongyi's heart stirred slightly, and he blurted out.

Upon hearing this, everyone perked up, their eyes filled with anticipation. Yet, not one questioned whether Xia Daoming, merely a Tenth-Level True Immortal, possessed the strength to subdue the Azure Feather Eagle King!
Xia Daoming nodded and said, "Our Qingyuan Sect has a shallow foundation in the Earthly Immortal Realm. It will take time for disciples like Luo Mu to grow. If we can subdue some scattered demons without sect backgrounds to serve as guardian beasts, it will greatly benefit the development of our sect and the growth of our disciples."

"Daoming, you have a long-term vision! However, that Azure Feather Eagle King is powerful and unruly, so it won't be easy to subdue it!" Yue Huang said.

“A session lasts 10,800 years. If this demon reached the Twelfth Session Realm 10,000 years ago, then he only has a few hundred years left to break through. If I have the strength to intimidate him and give him the hope of reaching the Golden Immortal Path, he will probably choose to submit,” Xia Daoming said.

"I'm afraid it's not that easy. The Azure Feather Eagle King has been stuck at the Twelve Realms for ten thousand years. During that time, he must have visited some Golden Immortal forces, but in the end, he did not submit to any of them!" Yue Huang shook his head and said.

"It's different. Whether it's the path to becoming a Golden Immortal or the resources that help one step onto the Golden Immortal path, they are all incredibly precious. Sometimes, it even requires the entire sect or clan to pool their resources to cultivate a Golden Immortal. Under such circumstances, why would those Golden Immortal forces consider an outsider?"
"If it weren't for the fact that my Qingyuan Sect is currently weak and in need of strong protectors, I wouldn't have considered subduing the Azure Feather Eagle King at this cost!" Xia Daoming said.

"Could it be that besides the true meaning of the Great Dao, you also possess precious resources that can help people step onto the Golden Immortal Path?" Yue Huang's face showed shock.

Xia Daoming nodded.

The Nine Heavens Mystic Grass obtained in the Valley of Reincarnation was the main ingredient for refining the Nine Mystic Golden Embryo Pill.

This elixir can greatly enhance a true immortal's chances of attaining the Golden Immortal Dao.

Later, Zhu Qiluo specially sent him the recipe for refining the Nine Profound Golden Embryo Pill. Over the years, Xia Daoming had already collected all the other immortal medicines needed to refine this pill.

Now that his strength has greatly increased and the six true fires have converged within him, he is confident that he can start refining pills.

However, since no one in the Qingyuan Sect has yet reached the cultivation level to break through to the Golden Immortal Path, he is not in a hurry to start refining pills.

However, if this Azure Feather Eagle King is capable of being cultivated and controlled, he would not mind starting to refine pills in the near future, and would even give him a Nine Profound Golden Embryo Pill!

Seeing Xia Daoming nod, everyone was shocked and their breathing became heavy.

The resources needed to break through to the Golden Immortal Path are incredibly precious and rare!

Even Golden Immortals would fight over it!

"Daoming, in my opinion, these resources should be treasured and kept for your own future use, as well as for the disciples of my Qingyuan Sect who have the potential to achieve the Golden Immortal Path!" Zhongli Shuyun quickly advised.

She was the head of the Alchemy Hall, and her heart bled when she heard that such precious resources were to be used to cultivate an outsider!

Yue Huang and the others echoed his sentiments.

"It's alright, what's lost can be regained! Our Qingyuan Sect won't need these resources for the next few years, so leaving them is a waste. We might as well make use of them! If this Azure Feather Eagle King is truly worthy of cultivation and can step onto the Golden Immortal path, our Qingyuan Sect will directly enter the ranks of Golden Immortal forces, and we can then truly establish a firm foothold in Suiyuan Prefecture, and strive for more opportunities. Such a price is worthwhile," Xia Daoming said with a smile.

He also holds the secret of a fragment of the primordial world!
There must be some rare and precious materials hidden there that can create a Golden Immortal!
As long as he has enough strength to collect them in the future, why should he worry about Golden Immortal resources?
That's why Xia Daoming decided to take the Azure Feather Eagle King!
Otherwise, why would he be willing to give away the Nine Profound Golden Embryo Pill?

Of course, he will not reveal any of this earth-shattering secret at present.

Seeing that Xia Daoming had made up his mind, the others stopped trying to persuade him.
-
Outside the county town.

A dark cloud flew in rapidly.

In the blink of an eye, dark clouds loomed overhead.

Half of the county town suddenly went dark.

The terrifying aura of the Twelve True Immortals emanated from the dark clouds, sweeping across Langming County.

The dark cloud was actually a huge eagle with its wings spread wide, blotting out the sky.

"It's the Azure Feathered Eagle King! It's the Azure Feathered Eagle King!"

The people in the city were terrified and hid in their houses and mansions, not daring to show their faces.

The left and right captains guarding the city, and the left and right judges of the City God Pavilion, sent people to Xiaolang Mountain to report the news while they nervously went out of the city to greet them.

　That concludes today's update.
