Immortal Taoist Lord: My Cultivation Have No Limits

After they left.

Su Yu and Luo Qianyu charged first into the entrance of the secret realm of the Golden Jade Fairy Gate ruins. Immediately afterward, the Cloud Tigers shrunk their bodies and landed in Yu Ke’er’s arms. Yu Ke’er and Su Zhi, together with Tie Mengzhu and the remaining thirty inner sect disciples from the Punishment Hall of Yunjian Sect, entered the secret realm.

Only Cheng Jiaying and twenty inner sect disciples were left to guard the entrance to this secret realm.

Cheng Jiaying, whose cultivation had now reached the eighth level of Foundation Establishment Realm, took out several formation flags. With a wave of her hand, she set up multiple layers of formations at the entrance of the secret realm, sealing the location with the help of other disciples.

Inside the ruins of the Golden Jade Fairy Gate.

People like Su Yu, Luo Qianyu, Yu Ke’er, and Su Zhi searched the place, but only found a few dozen cultivators of the Red Alliance. Neither Gongsun Yi nor Du Yulin was found.

There was also no trace of anyone from the Taixu Faction.

Su Yu furrowed his brows, wondering if they had run away.

Or was it merely a coincidence that they were not here? As per the confessions of the captured members of the Red Alliance, Su Yu learned that Gongsun Yi and his ilk were here for a while, but they had not appeared again in the last half a month.

They were merely instructed to break the formation’s restrictions and find the inheritance of the Golden Cicada Method.

Su Yu’s pupils contracted slightly: “Did they know trouble was coming and decided to leave half a month ago?”

After failing to find Gongsun Yi and Du Yulin, Su Yu and Luo Qianyu quickly gathered their people from the Yunjian Sect. Once again riding on the Cloud Tigers, they rushed towards Red Lotus Lake, where Gongsun Yi and the others had set up camp not too long ago.

When they arrived at Red Lotus Lake, they did not find any trace of Gongsun Yi and the others in the Red Alliance’s cave dwelling.

The remaining Red Alliance cultivators weren’t many. When they saw Su Yu, Luo Qianyu, Su Zhi, and the others landing from the Cloud Tigers, they directly knelt down and begged for mercy.

They had only recently joined the Red Alliance and could hardly speak of any sense of belonging.

“The Red Alliance has colluded with the Purple Light Prefecture faction, the Taixu Alliance, to harm the cultivators of the Greater Moon Prefecture. As of now, there are orders from the Greater Moon Palace to eradicate the Taixu Alliance’s influence in the Greater Moon Prefecture. Considering the fact that your sins are not severe, we will spare your lives.”

“Scram.”

Using the reputation of the Greater Moon Palace, Su Yu sent the remaining cultivators with a light number of sins away, as these cultivators were not worth worrying about, there was no need to create more killing karma.

On this island, there were still some former cultivators and clansmen from the Li Family, but Su Yu did not attempt to kill them.

All grievances dissipated the moment the Pill Master’s Li Family crumbled.

Really, if they were going to exterminate the family—the Li Family, including ordinary clansmen, would account for tens of thousands of lives.

If he killed that many people, he would become a devil.

All the Yunjian Sect disciples took control of the Red Alliance’s erstwhile cave dwelling.

This cave dwelling was a level three spirit vein blessed land, with an area much larger compared to their previous foothold. The location was about ten miles in size, had beautiful scenery, mountains and waters, and beautiful buildings and fairy palaces.

As soon as they entered the dwelling, a rich wave of level three spirit vein’s nature’s spiritual energy washed over them.

However, Su Yu was perturbed at the sight of the now-vacant dwelling, “Did they anticipate the Greater Moon Palace wouldn’t let this slide so they left early?”

The expressions on the faces of those nearby including Luo Qianyu, Yu Ke’er, Su Zhi, and Tie Mengzhu were not too comforting.

This time, even though they took back the Golden Jade Fairy Gate ruins in the Eight Demons Mountain Range and eradicated the Red Alliance in the Red Lotus Lake, they failed to locate some key individuals.

So in a manner, their present operation could be deemed a failure.

Luo Qianyu, gazing around the site, softly conjectured, “For the time being, they likely won’t reappear, at least not until the conflict between the Greater Moon Palace and Taixu Alliance is settled.”

Su Zhi, appearing somewhat anxious voiced, “Sister, do you think the Greater Moon Palace has a chance against the Taixu Alliance?”

After contemplating for a moment, Luo Qianyu responded, “I am not sure, but the Greater Moon Palace’s foundation isn’t something Taixu Alliance could shake easily.”

“Should we stay here?” she asked Su Yu, seeking his opinion.

“No, let’s go back.”

Having scoured Red Lotus Lake, Su Yu disliked how Gongsun Yi scavenged almost everything, leaving absolutely nothing behind. Leaning towards leaving, Su Yu shook his head, choosing not to contest for the level three spirit vein in Red Lotus Lake. Since the place was a far-off, extending reach over it was not viable.

Moreover, the Greater Moon Prefecture was not stable currently. He could not be reckless nor could he allow the Su Family and Yunjian Sect to risk themselves.

Therefore, upon failing to locate Gongsun Yi and the others, Su Yu immediately escorted Luo Qianyu and the others back to Yunjian Sect’s territory.

Once back, Luo Qianyu ordered Su Zhi to mobilize the elders of Yunjian Sect with their respective teams to cleanse the entire territory of the Yunjian Sect.

Those who incited trouble and war in the past, and were still there without escaping, were all to be purged.

Neither Su Yu nor Luo Qianyu nor Su Zhi would let these people go. Letting them off would be akin to leaving behind a host of future troubles.

Many cultivation families were instigated by these people, leading to the turbulence in this period.

In a strict sense, this was a challenge to the authority of the Yunjian Sect, and they deserved nothing less than death.

As Yunjian Sect was cleansing its territory of the Taixu Alliance’s pawn, news arrived from the Great Moon Palace. The Palace Master of the Great Moon Palace ordered the Taixu Alliance to safely return Taoist Shuhai within a month, else an all-out war would ensue.

Upon their return to Yunjian Sect, Su Yu, Luo Qianyu, and Yu Ke’er spent their time focusing on this matter when they weren’t in their regular cultivation routines.

Originally, Su Yu was waiting for the end of the month to interrogate Taoist Xiuyu about whether the Great Moon Palace would indeed wage war against the Taixu Alliance.

However, a few days before the deadline, Taoist Xiuyu suddenly passed on news: “Taoist Friend Su, I have good news and bad news, each news costs 100 mid-grade spirit stones. Which one would you like to hear?”

“Can’t you value friendship over spirit stones?” Su Yu questioned.

Taoist Xiuyu replied, “No, I need to eat. I need spirit stones, not friendship.”

Su Yu wanted to give him the middle finger, saying, “Hurry up and tell me both.”

The much enthused Taoist Xiuyu from the other side promptly conveyed, “The good news is that an astonishing incident came up from the main base of the Taixu Alliance a few days ago. According to our elder who risked his life to investigate, it turns out that Taoist Shuhai escaped from the main base of the Taixu Alliance, and during his escape, he carried off the True Monarch, Alliance Hierarch’s prized Shengyuan Peach Tree!”

“The entire Taixu Alliance was in an uproar, with the True Monarch Alliance Hierarch boiling with anger. It is said that Taoist Shuhai has enraged him to the point of thunderous fury, and a death order has been issued to hunt down Taoist Shuhai, and reclaim the Shengyuan Peach Tree!”

“The Great Moon Palace no longer has to go to war with the Taixu Alliance. How’s that for good news?”

Listening to this, Su Yu felt as if he were in a dream, and after a long while, he finally recovered to ask, “Are you tricking me?”

Taoist Xiuyu on the other side burst into a fit of laughter, exclaiming, “No one would believe this news but it’s true, I guarantee it with ten thousand years of reputation of our unknown hall!”

Really?

Expressing his current feelings, Su Yu still had a hard time believing it.

Taoist Shuhai, he’s just a cultivator at the ninth level of the foundation establishment stage, right?

How did he manage to stroll around the main base of the Taixu Alliance and escape under the very nose of the Alliance Hierarch, carrying off such a precious treasure?

A moment later-

Considering there was another piece of news, Su Yu eagerly asked, “What’s the other news?”

Taoist Xiuyu said, “The good news is that the Great Moon Palace no longer has to initiate a war with the Taixu Alliance, the bad news is, the Taixu Alliance is very likely to initiate a war with the Great Moon Palace in a fit of rage.”

Damn it!

You’re playing word games.

Only one word could describe how Su Yu felt after hearing this news.

Upon thinking about it, he felt that the good news Taoist Xiuyu just mentioned didn’t seem like good news at all.

Intrigued and puzzled, he asked, “What is the Shengyuan Peach Tree?”

Taoist Xiuyu pondered for a long while before saying, “It’s said that it bears fruit once every hundred years, the Shengyuan Peach is a genuine heavenly treasure. Even a nascent soul True Monarch can increase cultivation by consuming it. It’s one of the greatest treasures of the Taixu Alliance and the personal treasure of the Alliance Hierarch, which they obtained from a relic.”

“If a genius consumes it, it can purify their mana base, making them ascend another level, similar to the natural ‘Golden Core Pill’.”

“But the Golden Core Pill has some side effects on the person, whereas the Shengyuan Peach has none, instead it has many benefits.”

After asking Taoist Xiuyu about the details and various conditions, Su Yu took back the Jiuyao token, feeling a little worried.

Taoist Shuhai, you’ve really stirred up a hornet’s nest, Su Yu fretted with a furrowed brow.

Fortunately, he was not at the center of this terrifying swirl, he could still be a spectator, and if it came to affecting him, he could choose to take people away, hide in the relics of Luoyue Alliance.

He could even choose to leave the Great Moon Mansion outrightly.

Su Yu planned for his various escape routes, preparing ahead of time.
