In the end of the world, I become an immortal alone
#520 - Half Moon Period
"Those cultivators above the Nascent Soul and Integration stages will defect to Tianluo, disciples below the Foundation Establishment stage will abandon cultivation and return to mundane life, and the rest who want to leave will follow you?"
Daoist Taiye leaned back in his chair, muttering to himself.
Wang Jixuan nodded gently beside him, adding, "I'm just taking them away from here, severing all ties with this place, and then sending them to a secluded paradise for cultivation."
Daoist Taiye silently took out a jade talisman and wrote many things in it.
After a moment, Taiye handed the jade talisman to Wang Jixuan.
Inside was a string of numbers.
Not including rogue cultivators, just the dozen or so sects, the number of disciples who needed Wang Jixuan to take away was roughly sixty-seven thousand.
"The complexity of the human heart cannot be explained clearly in a few words."
"Your intention to save people is good, but you also have to see if they appreciate it."
Wang Jixuan shrugged, "Those who seek life will live, those who seek death will die. Just take our sect away first."
Taiye nodded, "That's what I mean too."
"Uh," Wang Jixuan tentatively asked, "Senior Uncle, you don't mean... just saying... even if we don't save the other sects, it's okay?"
Taiye smiled wryly, "In the current situation, it's already not easy to protect our own sect. If we have the spare capacity to help fellow Daoists from other sects, that would naturally be for the best, but the sect must come first."
Wang Jixuan couldn't help but laugh.
Daoist Taiye said in a low voice, "I'm discussing serious matters with you, what are you laughing at? Be serious."
"Ah, yes."
Daoist Wang sat up straight, smiling wryly:
"I had assumed that the sect couldn't bear to abandon the other fellow Daoists, and I've been negotiating with the Heavenly Dao based on the condition of rescuing all righteous cultivators."
"Negotiating with the Heavenly Dao?"
"Yes," Wang Jixuan responded, "The Heavenly Dao has something it needs me to do, so it can be considered a kind of transaction."
Daoist Taiye didn't know what to say for a moment.
Wang Jixuan took out a jade talisman and placed it down, instructing, "Then next, please follow the steps outlined here, step by step, to advance the plan. Save as many as we can."
"Alright."
Taiye picked up the jade talisman and glanced at it.
Everything that needed to be done in each step, and all the precautions, were listed clearly, accurate to the hour.
Taiye suddenly frowned, looking at Wang Jixuan, "Jixuan, why does Senior Uncle always feel like there's another expert guiding you from behind?"
"Is there?"
Wang Jixuan chuckled, cupped his hands in farewell, "Then Senior Uncle, please rest, I won't disturb you any longer."
"Hey, let's have a simple meal together. I've invited a few elders from the sect..."
"No, thank you, Senior Uncle. I still need to perfect the newly opened Mustard Seed Universe."
"Mustard Seed Universe?"
Daoist Taiye wanted to say something to persuade him to stay, but Wang Jixuan's figure had already遁入 (dun ru) the wall, ignoring the barrier here, and left freely.
"Why the rush?"
Daoist Taiye held the jade talisman in his hand, carefully examining it.
The plan was very detailed, with every step considered very thoroughly.
But...
"Can it really go so smoothly?"
The Sect Leader thought worriedly.
...
"Meeting time."
Mudan called out in the first base, and before long, several energetic participants ran over.
Their small team had only added Mao Mo, and the personnel were basically unchanged.
Wang Jixuan gave a brief opening speech and then introduced their next action plan.
Mao Mo quickly noticed that something was wrong and immediately raised his hand to ask:
"Wait, why are we so certain that the Dark Church will launch the next wave of attacks in half a month, and that after the first battle, regardless of the outcome, the Dark Church will rest for three days?"
Wang Jixuan spread his hands, "The Heavenly Dao told me this."
"Oh?" Mao Mo looked enlightened, "So it's deduction or divination. Is that reliable?"
Mudan clicked her tongue softly beside him, "The Heavenly Dao said it personally."
Mao Mo chuckled awkwardly.
Common sense told him that Mudan was just joking. After all, everyone in the Immortal Realm knew what the Heavenly Dao was. It was the will of heaven and earth, and even a Grand Luo Golden Immortal would find it difficult to communicate directly with the Heavenly Dao.
Hmm? Mao Mo suddenly thought of what he had seen and heard during this period, as well as the various peculiarities of these guys...
"Really?"
"Guess," Mudan rolled her eyes.
Daoist Wang smiled beside him, "Our main plan is based on this plan, but we definitely need to have backup plans and prepare more contingencies. If we give the Heavenly Dao a chance to kill us, it will definitely take action. It's just that now we have Senior White Bone protecting us, and the Heavenly Dao isn't confident it can do it, so it's negotiating with us."
Zheng Shiduo had already finished reading the main battle plan in the meeting documents.
He said with some concern, "We have no problem opening the second base. There are plenty of mechanical laborers. The problem is... will these people cooperate?"
"Don't create a story of Mr. Dong Guo and the wolf," Chi She also muttered worriedly.
Mudan said confidently, "So, the timing of our intervention is very important. We must let them feel the real crisis of annihilation, experience despair, and then, when they are in despair, take action and save them from the fire and water... We can then recruit a group of cultivator thugs!"
Wang Jixuan also laughed when he heard this.
Mudan was indeed a good wingman, never forgetting to help them develop their forces.
"There's no need to recruit them."
Wang Jixuan supported himself on the ground with his feet, swaying left and right on the swivel chair, and said slowly:
"We must pay attention to maintaining the purity of the team. In the future, we will firmly follow the path of mechanical civilization."
"With Mudan as the brain of mechanical civilization, and us as the supervisors."
"The Heavenly Dao has already pointed out the path for us."
"What it is afraid of, we will develop. What it fears, we had better really grasp that technology."
Everyone nodded at the same time.
Although, apart from Senior White Bone, who had not shown up and was hiding in a corner, no one present knew what the concept of the Heavenly Dao was.
Wang Jixuan snapped his fingers, "Let's continue to discuss this main plan. I'll first raise two problems that I think are difficult, and everyone can discuss them... First, how should we determine the character of the people we save, and whether they have committed any evil deeds?"
Mudan immediately shook her head, "We don't have any data in this area. If we want to collect data, the workload is extremely huge. It's very difficult to conduct background checks on cultivators scattered all over the world in half a month."
Zheng Shiduo asked, "Can we directly ask their sect for background checks?"
"The sect will definitely favor their disciples," Xiao Huating muttered softly, "When we used to do skill certification exams, the schools would praise us to the heavens, let alone these cultivation sects."
Wang Jixuan asked, "Can Mudan develop a device that can quickly read memories, or dreams, something similar?"
"Development also takes time, and there are various experiments. I'm afraid Mudan won't have enough time."
Mudan replied with a deliberately cute expression.
Mao Mo said softly, "Um, if we can cooperate with the Heavenly Dao, wouldn't we be able to directly see their karma and merit?"
"We're not directly cooperating with the Heavenly Dao, it's more of a passive compromise."
Wang Jixuan said:
"The Heavenly Dao wants us to cause less trouble and return to the real world sooner."
"It doesn't know our next plan."
Maintaining her large form, Amina, still the visual担当 of the small team, gracefully asked, "Isn't our next stop the Immortal Realm? Are we taking all these people we're picking up here to the Immortal Realm too?"
Wang Ji Xuan pondered for a moment, "Either arrange for them to go to the Immortal Realm, or arrange for them to go to a forbidden Immortal Zone."
"Why?"
"The Immortal Realm is a mixed bag, the Eight Great Immortal Palaces are the real masters, and the influence of the Heavenly Dao is relatively low."
Wang Ji Xuan said quickly:
"Forbidden Immortal Zones are all in the endless starry sky, referring to a star field where super civilizations with collective ascension were born."
"The Heavenly Dao also has difficulty influencing those places."
"However, there are definitely risks involved. Relatively speaking, the Immortal Realm should be more beneficial to these cultivators we're taking, at least it will be beneficial to their cultivation. They can also disperse and reduce their own risks."
The others nodded.
Wang Ji Xuan, afraid that everyone would feel burdened, said with a smile, "Anyway, we'll have done our best by saving them, and putting them in a relatively safe environment will be considered a complete success. As for whether they can survive, that's not something we have the ability to consider."
Mudan raised her hand and said, "Boss, then why don't we just put them in the Immortal Realm?"
"Okay, you decide that, no need to give me reasons."
"Understood."
Mudan swallowed back her urge to explain.
Wang Ji Xuan continued, "Where to put them is the second question, now that's been resolved. We'll tentatively take them to the Immortal Realm. Let's go back to the first question… I don't want to save some villains, or potential villains."
Mao Mo muttered, "Then why don't we just save these sect disciples? Disciples taught by sects are always more disciplined than rogue cultivators."
"Not necessarily," Chi She shook his head and said, "As the saying goes, heroes are often butchers, and the ungrateful are often scholars… Although the situation isn't the same, the principle is the same."
Most of the people smiled.
"Actually, it's quite simple," Xiao Hua Ting raised her hand to signal, "I have an ability to resonate with their thoughts through my singing, which can guide them to drop their defenses."
Zheng Shi Duo hurriedly said, "Be careful! Be careful!"
Wang Ji Xuan asked with a smile, "Is there some story I don't know about?"
"Oh, Wang-ge, you were in seclusion in Cloud Top City at the time…"
Zheng Shi Duo briefly explained the 'unbearable' impact that Xiao Hua Ting's special ability had previously caused.
At that time, a group of Obsidian spies had infiltrated a concert on a planet, wanting to launch a terrorist attack.
When Zheng Shi Duo and the others received the news, the concert had already begun, with nearly 100,000 people on and off the stage, and on various huge stands suspended in the air.
In that critical moment, Xiao Hua Ting decisively activated this ability, and the vast majority of people at the scene were affected, including hundreds of spiritual energy users and several Earth spiritual cultivators.
And then…
"It was so eye-searing," Zheng Shi Duo said with a wry smile, "At that time, countless people, like zombies, rushed onto the stage, shouting Xiao Hua Ting's stage name, almost trampling each other. There were also many people who started taking off their clothes while crying and sobbing, and there were couples who couldn't control themselves in public… Anyway, that incident was quite a big deal."
Wang Ji Xuan asked, "Were the terrorists caught?"
"They were caught. After being affected by Xiao Hua Ting's ability, a total of twelve terrorists began to laugh wildly, laughing and laughing, then they started to cry, saying they didn't want to die in vain, but their families were threatened."
Zheng Shi Duo thought for a moment:
"However, if it wasn't on such a large scale, it might really be possible for hundreds of people at a time to listen to Xiao Hua Ting's singing and release their inner selves."
Mudan hurriedly said, "Thousands of people! At least thousands of people! If it's hundreds of people at a time, how many times will Xiao Hua Ting have to sing!"
Wang Ji Xuan pondered for a moment, "Let's create a formation to amplify Xiao Hua Ting's infectiousness. Most cultivators cultivate their hearts, so they probably won't be easily affected."
Amina suggested, "Why don't we try it in the Wangxian Valley first?"
"That, that's okay too."
Wang Ji Xuan stroked his chin and thought for a moment.
He was the kind of person who acted on his ideas immediately, so he directly got up and disappeared, leaving a message to wait for his news.
A moment later, Wang Ji Xuan opened the gate of the First Base.
Daoist Tai Ye and several elders in the Mahayana stage took the opportunity to take a look at Wang Ji Xuan's First Base.
When their spiritual sense saw the towering skyscrapers like a forest, saw the countless dark masses of mechanical bodies, and saw the factory assembly lines operating at full speed for production, they were so shocked that they couldn't speak for a moment.
This was naturally deliberately shown by Wang Ji Xuan.
It was just to increase the credibility of what he said.
Afterwards, Wang Ji Xuan introduced Tai Ye Shibo and several elders.
"Fellow Daoists, this is my disciple, named Hua Ting… Hua Ting, meet the fellow Daoists, call them Shishu or Shibo."
"Yes," Gao Hua Ting immediately switched to the mode of a female cultivator, bowed to the several white-haired old grandfathers, "Hua Ting has met the Shibo."
The others nodded with a smile.
Tai Ye smiled and said, "This disciple is good, intelligent and bright, a good material for cultivation."
"Thank you for your praise, Shibo."
Gao Hua Ting stood behind Wang Ji Xuan a little shyly.
Daoist Wang said slowly, "Fellow Daoists, let's arrange it. Let's first try whether this method is feasible. My disciple's ability is her unique secret, which can be understood as a divine talent. If everything goes smoothly, we may be able to save a lot of effort and find people who are not worth saving."
The elders nodded.
They were obviously a little hesitant;
After all, letting an 'outsider' test the temperament of their own disciples;
But they saw those mechanical bodies and clearly knew that the young man with a gentle smile in front of them could destroy this place with a snap of his fingers.
So, the elders looked at each other and nodded in agreement.
"Then why don't we arrange some disciples from each realm."
"Let's start from the Heaven and Earth Bridge Realm down."
Daoist Tai Ye officially issued the sect master's order, and two elders left in a hurry.
Before long, hundreds of disciples were sitting in the main hall, cross-legged, meditating, and relaxing their minds.
Xiao Hua Ting was naturally not stage-frightened.
She was a superstar.
She held a pink microphone, her whole being seemed to be glowing, and she lowered her head and began to hum constantly.
Wang Ji Xuan saw with his own eyes that a layer of light pink ripples appeared around her, and these ripples slowly spread out, and the disciples in the hall quickly entered a strange state.
Suddenly.
An outer sect elder frowned and said, "Not a demonic sect! How could our Wangxian Valley be a demonic sect! We just collected a little more demonic cultivation techniques!"
The others were unaffected and were still hard-controlled by Xiao Hua Ting's singing.
And Wang Ji Xuan blinked.
Speaking of which, he was really curious as to why there were so many demonic scriptures in the valley…
