Preserve the essence, head towards Tianluo.
Though these eight words were spoken lightly, the weight behind them left the two Great Cultivators in silence.
This meant that they would have to abandon many disciples and many sect members.
The threshold for Tianluo's acceptance is at the Unification Realm…
"Can't the entire sect relocate to Tianluo?"
"This matter still needs to be discussed with the Loose Immortals of Tianluo," Wang Jixuan said softly, "However, there aren't many small cultivators in Tianluo, and with so many sects and Loose Cultivators in this world, they probably can't take care of everyone."
Elder Tai Ye sighed lightly, "Alas, this…"
Wang Jixuan's mind was subtly stirred.
When he was in seclusion in Cloud City, the Three Realms Wanderer had ordered the Spiritual Servant to make a batch of new Subspace Stone Tablets. He could actually take out a tablet and put the disciples of Wangxian Valley inside;
He could even fit dozens of sects and Loose Cultivators into one Subspace Stone Tablet.
But where would he take them afterwards?
He himself was now a fugitive hunted by the Heavenly Dao.
"Jixuan," Daoist Tai Ye asked, "What exactly is this Dark Sect? Why are there so many Demon Cultivators?"
"They are not necessarily Demon Cultivators."
Wang Jixuan thought for a moment and replied concisely:
"Those cultivators might just be working for the Dark Sect.
"The Dark Sect and Tianluo are like twin brothers, both serving the Heavenly Dao, mostly opposing each other, with the Heavenly Dao issuing orders to them through Heavenly Dao Steles.
"In this world, there are many cultivation realms like ours, and Tianluo and the Dark Sect recruit cultivators above the Unification Realm from all realms.
"Moreover, they can continuously produce elixirs only available in the Immortal Realm. As long as one contributes enough, one can ensure to become a Red Dust Wanderer Immortal, thus possessing a longer life expectancy."
Master Wang lightly shook his head:
"I got along well with the people of Tianluo.
"What offends me are the self-righteous Tianluo higher-ups and the Heavenly Net Alliance Leader who protects his subordinates regardless of reason.
"They are also the main culprits for my current flight.
"Originally, with Tianluo backing me against the pressure from the Dark Sect, though the situation was difficult, it wasn't at the end of the road."
Daoist Tai Ye nodded slowly.
He didn't probe further into what Wang Jixuan had experienced, focusing instead on matters related to the organizations Tianluo and Dark Sect.
Wang Jixuan comprehensively introduced the Xu Realm, True Realm, Immortal Realm, and the Endless Star Sea to his senior uncle.
Tai Ye fell into silence again, this time much longer.
And neither noticed that the transparent figure in the corner was also pondering something at that moment.
"Let's first discuss with the Tianluo Immortals," Daoist Tai Ye chuckled, "Come, I'll take you around the sect. Several of Elder Zhang's colleagues have almost developed Heart Demons over your heavenly tribulation failure and subsequent fall that year."
Wang Jixuan immediately said, "It's not good for me to meet others; the fewer who know my identity here, the better."
Wang Jixuan spoke, taking from his sleeve a thin mask and applying it to his face.
His appearance seemed to change only by three or four points, yet it bore a noticeable difference from that of Wang Jixuan back then; along with that, Wang Jixuan altered his Qi and Daoist charm, making him appear like a Buddhist disciple in secular cultivation.
Tai Ye sighed, "You have indeed changed considerably, back then there wasn't such a mindset, eager to tie even the waistband of your pants to the Great Path."
"Master is praising me."
Master Wang chuckled awkwardly:
"I too have mundane thoughts, it's just that in the past, I was obsessed with touching the Immortal Gate, forcibly suppressing many desires within me.
"Emotions and desires are actually also part of the Way."
Tai Ye smiled gently, "Everyone walks a different path, yours should be like a sword, bending nor swaying, unshaken by anyone's persuasion, straight towards the Immortal Gate."
"And then I failed in crossing the tribulation, rebuilding for three lives without becoming an immortal."
"Oh? Three lives?"
Tai Ye laughed:
"Transmit your voice and tell your senior uncle about it, what happened over your three lives."
"Alright, let's talk as we walk."
Wang Jixuan followed alongside Tai Ye, half a step behind, the two talked and laughed as they left this cave residence, strolling through Wangxian Valley.
Usually, Tai Ye spent most of his time in seclusion, and his remaining time was used for handling sect affairs;
Such a sect promenade was something most disciples hadn't witnessed.
They couldn't help but focus on the young man walking beside Daoist Tai Ye, noticing the Murong Family Jade Pendant hanging from his waist, and roughly realized he must be a family-born expert.
Master Wang chatted and laughed with his senior uncle, noticeably easing the atmosphere within the sect.
Disciples thought they might be saved;
The elders who knew the real situation also assumed the Sect Leader might have found a strategy to face the upcoming tribulation.
Otherwise, why would the Sect Leader be so cheerful?
Unconsciously, Master Wang found himself standing before the little courtyard he had resided in back then.
The courtyard had been refurbished several times over the six hundred years past, naturally housing other sect members and disciples.
"Do you still remember Senior Sister Xihua?"
"Of course, I remember," Wang Jixuan smiled bitterly, "Back then, when Master fell to a Demon Path siege, Senior Sister Xihua moved here to look after me, thinking I was a strange person only knowing cultivation, fearing I couldn't even sew clothes."
"Yes indeed," Tai Ye sighed, "Back then, it was also Master's fault for not seeing the hatred in your eyes… After Master's passing, you threw yourself into cultivation desperately."
"Sadly, when I reached the Nascent Soul Realm, the Demon Cultivators were either dead or crippled, not even a single person to seek revenge upon."
