Chapter 526: Chapter 526
Accompanied by Lu Shaojie’s shouting, the pale green light slowly faded away.
"Fool!" Lu Erxi was frustrated but had to lower his voice because the sect members were just outside. "How many times has Grandpa Fox Immortal reminded us, no matter what you see, do not shout out loud. You just received the Divine Skill, and now you’ve shouted it away!"
Lu Shaojie, who had witnessed the indescribable beauty of the "Celestial Court", finally came to his senses and looked at the simple Divine Hall with extreme disappointment. "Hmph, that’s because you didn’t see it. If you saw what the Celestial Court looked like, you would have shouted even louder than me!"
The sudden change made the sect members curious and delighted. Could it be that the Young Sect Leader really saw the Celestial Court?
If they were more devout and diligent in receiving blessings, could they see it too?
At first, when the Fox Immortal Sect appeared in Wangshi Ridge, no one believed it. The practice of Immortal Cultivation seemed so intangible and elusive, how could any ordinary person accomplish it?
If everyone could cultivate to immortality, would there still be any common people left in the world? Would we still need to offer money and incense to this Immortal or that deity in exchange for nightly protection?
Besides, sometimes you hear rumors about Immortal Cultivation, where sects have high requirements, demanding both talent and Spirit Roots. How could ordinary people with nothing achieve immortality? Dream on!
But later, the residents of Wangshi Ridge discovered that the Fox Immortal Sect was indeed different—it didn’t charge any fees, and participants in the blessings were even given rice, flour, and oil.
Some extremely ill people even found themselves cured after participating in a few of Fox Immortal’s blessings!
As the Sect Leader said, the blessings given by the Fox Immortal were tangible and visible, far surpassing those which cost money and effort yet yielded nothing in return.
So, word spread from one to another, and soon many people came to Fox Immortal Sect to listen to the "True Skill and Righteous Path".
The more they listened, the more the sect members felt it made sense—how could compassionate Immortals who rescue people demand money from believers? Spending money? That’s not an Immortal!
Since it is about saving all lives from suffering, and seeing that common people’s lives are difficult, true Immortals should definitely offer alms!
What are Immortals? They are beings who can turn the world around with a flick of their wrist, able to create Gold with a mere gesture, how could they crave the few pennies in the hands of ordinary people?
An Immortal’s assistance must be unfailing!
For the sick, use Divine Skill to heal them directly; for those who can’t afford food, give them rice and oil, so the whole family can eat well.
Let people truly see and feel the benefits so that common people won’t be kept in the dark!
As for talent and Spirit Roots, when an Immortal aims to save everyone and succeed in Ascension, everyone should be able to directly receive the nourishment of Divine Skill.
If one has to train this and that, make all sorts of efforts to earn something with no future, it is absolutely the wrong path!
Now that the infusion of Divine Skill has made the Young Sect Leader the strongest, allowing him to see the Celestial Court, sect members were ecstatic.
"What does the Celestial Court look like? How did the Young Sect Leader see it?"
"Are the celestial ladies beautiful? Did you see Grandpa Fox Immortal?"
"What Realm is the Young Sect Leader at now? When will we be able to see the Celestial Court..."
A brief session of imparting the teachings ended, and Lu Erxi looked at the empty space in front of the Divine Statue, feeling a bit disappointed.
After each incense stick’s time for teaching ends, Grandpa Fox Immortal would give a small piece of Gold to be used for promoting the Fox Immortal Sect and trying to save more sect members.
Today was certainly disrupted by his son’s disturbance, and Grandpa Fox Immortal didn’t have time to grant the Gold.
He got up, pressed his hands, and said loudly, "The purpose of our Fox Immortal Sect is that the True Skill and Righteous Path must be cultivated clearly and visibly. The Young Sect Leader, just by advancing to the Third Level of Divine Skill, can already see the Celestial Court.
Brothers and sisters, as long as everyone actively participates in each blessing and their Realm increases each time, they will soon be able to see the Celestial Court with their own eyes!"
Seeing every sect member so excited, Lu Erxi was also curious, so he patted his son’s shoulder, "Tell everyone, what does the Celestial Court look like?"
"It’s beautiful!" Before becoming the Young Sect Leader, Lu Shaojie was just an ordinary cowherd in the village, without any knowledge of big words, he struggled to describe. He gestured expressively and excitedly, "The Celestial Court houses are huge! Made of Gold, shining golden light!
There are countless red and green Gems! Houses and pavilions are held up by clouds, and the celestial ladies dressed so well, and they are even prettier!
Their waists, chests, backsides... hehehe! Don’t compare them to the big girls and young wives of Wangshi Ridge, even the Emperor’s wife can’t be as beautiful as the celestial ladies! And the dances are beautiful, like flying in the sky!"
The crude words made the few scholarly and wealthy people in the crowd frown slightly.
But it wasn’t much of a problem, for Grandpa Fox Immortal had said, the True Skill and Righteous Path exist among the people, meant to save the common folks and poor communities.
Those officials and rich men, who climbed high up by studying only to oppress the people, are too sinful to be saved, destined for the Eighteen Layers of Hell! The source of thɪs content is n͟o͟v͟e͟l͟f͟i͟r͟e͟.net
Others were stirred with excitement.
What is Immortal Cultivation for?
Of course, it’s for being strong, eternally young, having limitless Divine Skills, indulging in the best food and drink, wearing the best clothing, sending those who defy into Hell, and even having celestial ladies to serve you when you go to the bathroom!
The Young Sect Leader has already seen the celestial ladies, so Ascension to become an Immortal shouldn’t be far away!
"Everyone, quiet down!" Lu Erxi saw the sect members buzzing with hushed discussions, and his mind was still on the Gold gifted by Grandpa Fox Immortal.
After all the blessings, as instructed by Grandpa Fox Immortal, some rice and oil need to be given to the poor, which all cost money purchased!
His son still has to eat beef and mutton, which also need money to buy!
With blessings held every ten days to get a small piece of Gold to sustain expenses, he didn’t want to miss this opportunity. Who would ever think they have too much Gold?
"Everyone, sit quietly, and I will ask Grandpa Fox Immortal for a continuation of blessings. As long as you sincerely accept the infusion of Divine Skill, you will eventually see the Celestial Court and ascend as Immortals!" Lu Erxi urgently repeated the ritual, and indeed, a faint green light spilled down again, covering everyone.
Fractured light gently seeped into the forehead and seven apertures, while clouds gathered to block the sunlight, making the sky dim a bit more.
Another rumble of thunder, and Jiang Yuan looked up at the seemingly endless rain, thinking that rain days spared him the need to water the fields, saving plenty of time, but the issue was delaying the rise of Farming Skills experience.
If only there were items in the store that were both simple and quick to gain experience, it would be great.
He retrieved a batch of Fifth Grade Clear Heart Pills from the Alchemy Room, added some medicinal herbs to refine Spirit Core Pill, Blood Replenishing Pill, and Grain Avoidance Pill.
On three platforms were placed three types of Elixir, the former being refined and the latter waiting, ensuring the Alchemy Furnace worked without pause. He only needed to come back for the finished products before tomorrow night.
"Ling Di, here you go!"
He filled a Jade Bottle with ten Clear Heart Pills and handed it over, "Calm your heart, cultivate well."
"Thank you, Master!" The little puppy, Ling Di, got up to receive the Elixir, thinking that the Master indeed reminded him to "calm down", and he needed to focus on cultivation to break through sooner!
Jiang Yuan didn’t think too much about it. He prepared five-packs for other courtyard members, handing them out one by one.
Meanwhile, he took the Capture Net from the Storage Bag, "This item can only be used once, but it has the advantage of being portable and can confine a Great Demon of the Divine Travel Realm for several breaths. The lower the Realm, the longer the time confined. You all take it with you, so if you encounter danger outside, you have a chance to escape."
