Chapter 749 - 400: Grand Opening of the Sect, Restrictions Lifted (Part 2)
Chapter 749: Chapter 400: Grand Opening of the Sect, Restrictions Lifted (Part 2)
"Education without discrimination" means equality among all beings; no matter your background, you have an opportunity. This doctrine resonates with him deeply.
However, he feels that based on this doctrine, there needs to be an additional condition, which is moral character.
It doesn’t need to be as stringent as the sect next door, Chan Sect, but at least with good moral character.
In this regard, Senior Sister Wu Dang is doing well. The few disciples she has taken are all quite good, and he will certainly do the same when he takes in disciples in the future.
At this moment, several streams of light flew from the sky. After descending, they turned into several figures. Su Yu was surprised when he saw one of the figures and blurted out:
"Senior Brother Chi Jingzi?"
Chi Jingzi looked at Su Yu with a complicated expression; especially upon seeing that he had already been promoted to Golden Immortal, his face was full of regret. He let out a long sigh and returned the salute:
"Junior Brother Dingzhen!"
Su Yu clasped his hands and returned the salute, then moved to the old Daoist beside him wearing an Eight Trigrams Immortal Robe and cupped his hands:
"May I ask which senior brother is this?"
The old Daoist replied with a laugh:
"I am Guang Chengzi!"
Su Yu raised an eyebrow, feeling a bit strange:
"So it’s Senior Brother Guang Chengzi, Junior Brother greets Senior Brother!"
Guang Chengzi stroked his beard with a smile and said:
"Junior Brother, you have advanced to Golden Immortal at such a young age, much faster than I did back in the day."
"I don’t dare to compare with Senior Brother."
Su Yu made a gesture of invitation:
"Please, Senior Brothers, enter the hall."
Guang Chengzi nodded with a smile and stepped toward the Hall of Inquiry.
After a while, he turned his head to see Chi Jingzi’s expression and shook his head, saying:
"This child is indeed remarkable. In just two to three hundred years, he has advanced to Golden Immortal, faster than when we first entered the sect. I can see that his foundation is also extraordinary. I felt a hint of threat when I just looked at him, so his combat abilities must be exceptional. Your regret in not having him as a disciple is understandable."
"But as the saying goes, ’What is meant to be will be, and what is not meant will not be forced.’ Junior Brother, you are too invested in appearances."
Chi Jingzi paused for a moment and suddenly said:
"Senior Brother, do you know which sect he was under before?"
Guang Chengzi casually asked:
"Under which sect?"
"He previously practiced the Nine Heavens Mystical Scripture!"
"???
Guang Chengzi paused, his smile rapidly freezing and disappearing.
"What do you mean?"
He looked up and asked Chi Jingzi:
"What do you mean by saying he practiced the Nine Heavens Mystical Scripture?"
"Tell me?"
"Senior Brother, you are too attached!"
"....
After these two from the Chan Sect, soon the Grand Mage of Ren Sect also arrived.
Later, from outside the skies, a Buddha Light shot up, and the Lamp-Burning Ancient Buddha of the Western Sect arrived together with a few obscure Bodhisattvas; Bodhisattvas like Cihang and Wenshu did not come.
Even though he had already met several times, Su Yu still maintained courtesy when meeting them today:
"Dingzhen meets the Ancient Buddha!"
As for the Lamp-Burning Ancient Buddha, let alone that, upon seeing Su Yu again, he smiled brightly and clasped his hands together:
"It is a great delight and congratulations on entering the sect of a Saint, my young friend!"
"Please, Ancient Buddha!"
After the Western Sect, very soon someone from the Celestial Court arrived, it was the True Martial Great Emperor.
Then one after another came several Immortals, all being disciples of top forces in the Earth Immortal Realm or disciples of Daluo Golden Immortal.
A dead camel is still bigger than a horse; even if the Jie Sect remains low-key and its talents decline, it is still a Saint’s lineage. The Biyou Palace ringing the golden bell to summon disciples after million years made all realms respectful and also curious about what was going on.
Once all who needed to come had arrived, Su Yu heard his master’s voice in his ear. He pushed open the palace door and entered the Hall of Inquiry. Dozens of gazes fell upon him as he stepped across the threshold.
The minimum level to enter this place is Golden Immortal, with most being Daluo Golden Immortal. The gazes are not ordinary; they carry scrutiny.
Faced with so many eyes, any other immortal might have found it hard even to stand, but Su Yu showed no reaction. He confidently walked to the cloud platform and kneeled:
"Disciple pays respect to Master!"
Sect Master Tongtian waved his large sleeve and gestured:
"Come stand here."
Su Yu stood at the left of Sect Master Tongtian’s cloud seat, facing the assembled immortals. Behind him came the voice of Sect Master Tongtian:
"From today, Biyou Palace reopens its gates to teach and impart knowledge. All disciples of our Jie Sect may enter the palace to listen to teachings. Every thousand years, my newly accepted direct disciple Dingzhen will ring the bell to summon disciples."
Su Yu turned again, bowed, and said:
"Disciple obeys!"
At this, celestial flowers fell, golden lotuses emerged, and Sect Master Tongtian immediately began teaching.
Everyone eagerly listened, from the Lamp-Burning Ancient Buddha, who was among the three thousand guests of the Purple Cloud Palace with the Saint, to the many Daluo disciples and even the ordinary disciples they brought; all listened with rapt attention, enthralled and enraptured.
The teachings lasted for three days and nights, repeating thrice. Afterward, the various guests left one by one. They would spread the news of the Jie Sect reopening its mountain gate and that Su Yu was the Saint’s newly accepted last disciple.
Su Yu stayed at Biyou Palace for a year before bidding farewell to Senior Sister Wu Dang and leaving.
He directly teleported to Celestial Pillar Mountain of the Cyan Immortal Domain and was about to return to the Human Race when a team stopped him.
"By the decree of the Supreme Celestial Venerable of the Golden Palace, Yu Huang, conferring upon Immortal Official Su Yu the title of the Nine Luminaries Earth Virtue Stellar Monarch, with a rank of third grade!"
"Oh!"
The Celestial Court’s swift response exceeded Su Yu’s expectation. Just as they announced it to the Three Realms, he was immediately promoted to a Stellar Monarch.
The position of Stellar Monarch is the most esteemed celestial position in the Celestial Court, a third-grade celestial position, on par with positions like the Heavenly Marshal Tianpeng, Central Altar Marshal Nezha, and Erlang God Yang Jian.
Above them are second-grade celestial positions, like Senior Sister Doumu Primordial Monarch, Pagoda Bearing Heavenly King, True Martial Great Emperor, and other Celestial Court masters.
This is the value of being a Saint’s disciple; starting with a third-grade celestial position.
Currently, it’s merely a prestigious position as Stellar Monarch. If he wishes to serve the Celestial Court in the future, he could surely further advance to hold substantial authority.
The advantage of a prestigious celestial position is its lack of responsibility and restriction; he can go wherever he wants.
After accepting the celestial position, Su Yu left Celestial Pillar Mountain and returned to the Human Race.
Upon return, he immediately summoned Xuan Yue and the four women back. After all, only one Horned Demon Person of the Profound Immortal level remained, so their absence wouldn’t affect the battle situation.
Entering the Chaos Realm, Su Yu took out four Seventh-Level Five Element Spiritual Objects and gave them to them, letting them cultivate within the Chaos Realm. They had achieved perfection in everything else, and only lacked Seventh-Level Five Element Spirit Veins to gather the five energies in their chest.
One year outside, ten thousand years inside the Chaos Realm....
During this time, he wasn’t idle, adding a new item to the merit exchange list, where one minor merit point could be exchanged for a year of special cultivation time.
That is, entering the Chaos Realm to cultivate, where one year in reality is a harsh ten thousand years of training inside the Chaos Realm.
Yes, after announcing his identity to the world, Su Yu no longer hid anything and began using the immense time difference of the Chaos Pearl to train a large number of strong Human Race experts.
Breaking through realms is not guaranteed, but simply accumulating realms is miraculous.
With the chaotic realm’s Spiritual Qi concentration and innate Spiritual Qi, a Foundation Establishment cultivation could reach full Foundation Establishment in just a year inside.
They would emerge to face celestial tribulations and advance to Golden Core, then return for continued cultivation.
Quickly achieving full Golden Core in ten to fifty years of accumulation.
Then preparing for the Celestial Human Tribulation outside.
After success, they continued cultivating inside for ten thousand, even thirty thousand, or a hundred thousand years, forcibly advancing to the tenth grade Celestial Immortal with all talents.
Accumulation, after all, depends on Spiritual Qi and time, unlike major realms where you’re stuck unable to progress.
Su Yu personally arrived on the front line to begin mass-boosting strength.
While earning a minor merit point might be slightly difficult during peace times, in a full-scale war phase like now, just participating in some essential battles allows earning a minor merit point. By taking on extra tasks or slaying more capable opponents, several merit points can be easily accumulated without any threshold whatsoever.
One year outside, a thousand years inside the Chaos Realm.
A hundred years of rigorous cultivation translates to just a few days outside, which doesn’t affect the war with the Horned Demon People at all.
When Su Yu lifted the restrictions, the strength of the Human Race quickly rose, and masters emerged in large numbers.
He erected the gate of the Chaos Realm above the fortress under his command. Every day tens of thousands of players exchanged spots to enter, and similarly, players emerged back after full completion, triggering tribulations, and in all directions, the heavenly tribulation clouds gathered in the sky, with numerous players crossing celestial tribulations at the same time.
Whether they could successfully survive the tribulation is not certain, but it certainly greatly accelerated the accumulation speed.
Within just a year, at least a billion Human Race players entered the Chaos Realm, with a significant enhancement in their abilities.
Su Yu didn’t pay much attention to lower levels; he focused on levels above Celestial Immortal.
In just a year, at least twenty thousand new Celestial Immortals emerged within the race, with over two hundred True Immortals, along with two new Profound Immortals.
