Reading Is Holy! Exposed By My Junior Sister!

Chapter 175: Pu Xian's Nine Positions, Forming an Alliance with Xian Yurong!

"Selecting disciples to go?"

Upon hearing Li Daoran's words, everyone quieted down, and in an instant, a realization flashed through their minds. So that's why Li Daoran gathered everyone here, he wanted to gather disciples from all peaks.

"Senior Brother, what do you mean?" Bai Yunzi stepped forward and asked Li Daoran.

Li Daoran said, "Pu Xian's Nine Positions are newly formed positions in the world. They can only be inherited by young cultivators under the age of forty."

"Coincidentally, among the disciples we have accepted in our sect's generation, all of them are within this age range."

"So, I plan to set up a platform for the disciples to showcase their abilities and compete for the opportunity to go. What do you all think, junior brothers?"

After speaking, Li Daoran looked at the people in the hall. This was the only method he could think of at the moment.

This method wasn't fair, and for many lower-level disciples, it could even be seen as exploitation. But there was no other way.

Pu Xian's Nine Positions was a significant matter, and there were many people eyeing it. It wasn't something that could be obtained just by going.

For ordinary disciples, besides wasting a spot, there was no other possibility.

Although he didn't want to admit it, the law of the jungle, survival of the fittest, and strength being respected were always the main themes of this world!

This was exactly where Li Daoran felt troubled because if the rankings were based on strength, at least one major peak in the sect would have no chance.

Therefore, he gathered disciples from all peaks.

After Li Daoran finished speaking, silence fell upon the crowd in the hall.

As peak masters, what Li Daoran could think of, they naturally thought of as well.

And precisely because they thought of it, they remained silent.

"If any junior brothers have anything to say, feel free to speak your mind," Li Daoran said again upon seeing this scene.

However, even with Li Daoran's words, no one spoke. Seeing that the scene was about to fall into silence, finally, someone in the crowd stood up.

"Senior Brother, let's go with your plan. I think it's a good idea," the person said.

It was an elderly man who had entered old age. His temples were slightly white, and he looked at Li Daoran with a pair of cloudy eyes.

This old man was the peak master of a subsidiary peak in the Heavenly Water Sect. The situation of this subsidiary peak was slightly better than Hidden Dao Mountain three years ago.

It belonged to the kind of peak that was destined to have no connection with this event!

"Elder Chen, you...?"

Seeing the old man stand up, Li Daoran wanted to say something, but in the end, he didn't say anything. He could only sigh.

The old man's name was Chen Shifeng. In terms of the order of entering the sect, he should be considered Li Daoran's senior.

But, since ancient times, there has been a distinction between seniority and status. In the Heavenly Water Sect, only the direct line of the main peak could be addressed as senior brother by Li Daoran.

For other peaks, no matter how long they had been in the sect, as long as they were of the same generation, they were addressed as senior brothers by the current generation's sect master.

Therefore, the old man called Li Daoran senior brother.

Seeing Li Daoran sigh, the old man didn't mind. He shook his head and said,

"Master, you don't have to worry about it. If we can't go, then we can't go. Survival of the fittest, this is the rule of this world."

"The children on the mountain can't go because they lack the ability. They can't blame others for that."

"On the contrary, if those outstanding children can't go, that would be a real loss."

"The only fairness we can give them is relative fairness. Apart from that, we can't help. I believe the children on the mountain think the same way."

At this point, the old man looked at Li Daoran and bowed deeply, saying,

"So, whether it's for the sect or for those outstanding disciples, please let the disciples who have the opportunity to compete go."

"Yes, Senior Brother, let those disciples who have the opportunity to compete for the positions go."

"I agree too."

"I, Lingdao Peak, voluntarily withdraw from this matter!"

"I, Great Dao Peak, also willingly withdraw!"

"."

Next, a miraculous scene unfolded. As soon as the old man's words fell, many peak masters in the audience immediately echoed his sentiment.

Without exception, these were all peaks that were destined to be excluded after following Li Daoran's plan.

But even though they lost the opportunity to go to Zhongtu, they didn't seem to regret it.

"You, you all, junior brothers..."

Seeing the appearance of everyone, Li Daoran suddenly fell silent.

"Thank you all for your understanding." In the end, he could only express his gratitude to everyone.

To willingly give up the opportunity they had obtained, it took a great deal of determination!

"Well, since that's the case, let's determine the participants for this event."

Afterwards, Li Daoran adjusted his state and spoke to the crowd.

"But..."

Upon hearing Li Daoran's words, all the peak masters nodded, including Lin Qingxue and Chen Yi. However, because they were younger, they couldn't interject in this situation and could only go with the flow.

After some discussion, the final list was determined.

Without exception, the list consisted of names of the 39th generation disciples.

Wang Tingfei, Zhou Xiaoye, Ye Daoran, Qian Sheng, Wang Shikai, Dao Ningye, Jiu Chaoying, Li Xuandao, Zhang Jiuer, Chen Yi, Lin Qingxue, Li Ziwan, Mao Ruxue.

There weren't many disciples going, but they were basically the elite of the Heavenly Water Sect's generation.

As for Chen Yi and the others, it was completely because of Chen Chang'an's influence.

With Chen Chang'an's current influence, if it were a large-scale event, it really wouldn't work without one or two of his disciples.

It's worth mentioning that a chicken and a dog were also included in the team.

The chicken was called Xiaojizai, and the dog was called Dahuang!

Since awakening their bloodline, this chicken and dog had become increasingly terrifying.

As a simple example, even Li Daoran himself would sometimes involuntarily feel a sense of fear when standing next to this chicken and dog!

There was even a feeling of being invincible!

As for how terrifying the strength of this chicken and dog was, no one knew.

Because up until now, these two creatures had never made a move!

Oh, by the way, in the entire Heavenly Water Sect, there were only four people they feared.

Chen Chang'an, Xiaozixiangxiaoduo, Mao Ruxue, and a creepy old man who often appeared on Hidden Dao Mountain!

Apart from these four people, no one could suppress this chicken and dog!

Even Li Ziwan, who also possessed the Supreme Void God Law Manifestation and was the Palace Master of Taiyin Palace, couldn't do it!

Another thing is that it seems Heavenly Water Sect doesn't plan to send elders on this trip with the disciples. Instead, they intend to let Lin Qingxue lead the team!

Having a disciple lead the team is unprecedented in the history of the Heavenly Water Sect, but it seems there is nothing wrong with doing so now.

Lin Qingxue, as Chen Chang'an's first disciple, has already been with him for over two years, and no one knows how much she has learned.

But one thing is certain, Chen Chang'an, as her master, has definitely taught her a lot!

With this relationship, it seems she can be the team leader for this event.

Of course, this is just the surface explanation. Heavenly Water Sect cannot possibly not send elders to accompany them for such a big event.

At least one elder responsible for diplomacy must be sent, otherwise these disciples will likely be completely clueless once they arrive.

As for which elder to send, I won't go into details.

"Master, we're back."

Not long after, on Hidden Dao Mountain, Chen Yi and Lin Qingxue hurried back.

Then, after respectfully bowing to Chen Chang'an, the two of them recounted everything that happened during their trip to the main peak, including the selection of disciples and the participation in the competition for the nine positions of Pu Xian, as well as the candidates for disciples.

"Master, Master Shu's name is also on the list, but it seems that she is not on the mountain. Should we inform her?"

After explaining what happened, Lin Qingxue asked.

"No need, you can go yourselves. You don't need to worry about Master Shu. She probably won't go, so there's no need to inform her."

Hearing Lin Qingxue's words, Chen Chang'an shook his head.

"Yes, Master."

"When will you depart?" Chen Chang'an asked.

Lin Qingxue and Chen Yi replied, "Master, we estimate tomorrow."

"Okay." Chen Chang'an nodded.

Not long after, Lin Qingxue and Chen Yi bid farewell and left.

Buzz~!

The next moment, shortly after Chen Yi and Lin Qingxue left, a sound of tearing through the void came from behind Chen Chang'an.

Accompanying this tearing sound was an immense and boundless celestial aura, within which a unique fragrance emanated from a woman.

It was Xian Yurong!

"Woman, what do you want?"

Seeing Xian Yurong suddenly appear, Chen Chang'an was very puzzled.

"Just now, were you discussing the position of the Asura in the Human Realm?"

Xian Yurong asked.

"Yes, the position of the Asura in the Human Realm. Is there a problem?"

Chen Chang'an nodded and asked.

"It seems that the position of the Asura in the Human Realm is the Heavenly and Earthly Fruit Position, which was produced from Emperor Song's six-cycle reincarnation after he advanced to the Great Heavenly Venerable."

"Don't you want the fruit position of the six realms?"

Xian Yurong looked curiously at Chen Chang'an.

"Why would I want that thing?"

Chen Chang'an shrugged his shoulders. He thought something had happened, but it turned out this girl was interested in that.

The fruit positions of the six realms?

Ha!

To be honest, I already have the entire six realms.

"With the fruit positions of the six realms, your chances of comprehending the Great Dao will greatly increase, and it will also have a certain increase in your combat power. Don't you really want it?"

"I don't want it."

Chen Chang'an shook his head again.

"Besides, what's the point of just a mere Asura position? If I want something, I would want to be the Lord of one of the six realms."

"You're a smart person." Hearing Chen Chang'an's words, Xian Yurong seemed to understand something. She stared at Chen Chang'an, then suddenly nodded, her eyes deep and unfathomable.

Then, she continued to say:

"Do you want to be the Lord of one of the six realms?"

"Lord? What Lord?" Chen Chang'an was a little confused when he heard Xian Yurong's words.

Xian Yurong sneered disdainfully:

"Kid, stop pretending. What's in your heart, do you think I don't know?"

"Even you can't resist the temptation of becoming a Lord with a Lord Fruit Position."

"Although I arrived a bit late, I still know a lot of things."

"Among them, I know that when Emperor Song was proving the Dao as the Heavenly Venerable, he left behind six positions for the Heavenly Dao Fruits."

"They are the Heavenly God Dao, Human Realm Dao, Ghost God Dao, Animal Realm Dao, Saint Dao, and Asura Dao!"

"Each of the six realms is independent and has its own Dao Lord and Realm Lord. Each one is a position of the Heavenly Dao Fruit, profound and indescribable."

"Among them, the Human Realm Dao, Ghost God Dao, and Asura Dao already had Dao Lords from the beginning. They were appointed by Emperor Song as the initial Dao Lords!"

"But the Heavenly God Dao, Saint Dao, and Animal Realm Dao did not."

"People say that the reason these three realms don't have Dao Lords is because Emperor Song couldn't find anyone to appoint."

"But as someone who has already stepped into the realm of the Heavenly Venerable, you cannot possibly not know that the reason these three realms don't have Dao Lords is not because Emperor Song couldn't find anyone to appoint, but because he couldn't appoint them!"

"There are fifty Great Daos, but only forty-nine are derived from the heavens!"

"Even though Emperor Song became one with the Dao and is the creator of the six realms of reincarnation, he still cannot truly control the cycle of reincarnation. Some authority will always belong to this world."

"This includes the appointment of Dao Lords!"

"Emperor Song appoints half, and the heavens and earth choose the other half. This is an unchanging rule since ancient times!"

"In other words, everyone in the world has a chance to obtain the remaining three positions."

"This is the Heavenly Dao, the only opportunity bestowed by the Heavenly Emperor to receive the Dao Fruit positions."

"Let me guess, which position have you set your sights on?"

"The Heavenly God Dao? Or the Saint Dao?"

After speaking, Fairy Yurong looked at Chen Chang'an with a smile on her lips, a smile that clearly held all the knowledge.

Heavenly God Dao, Saint Dao?

Neither!

Upon hearing Fairy Yurong's words, a faint smile appeared on Chen Chang'an's face.

Is it really impossible for him to appoint the remaining three realms? Actually, it's not!

If he could, he would appoint Dao Lords for all three remaining realms.

But Chen Chang'an didn't do that.

The cycle of reincarnation is a grand scheme, encompassing the entire Formless World!

If it only involved the people of Emperor Song's palace, it would be too limited.

So, he made those three realms public!

Let the world choose!

But there's no need to say more about these things. It's enough to know them himself.

In the next moment, Chen Chang'an looked at Fairy Yurong and shook his head helplessly.

"Indeed, nothing can escape the lady's notice."

"To be honest, I have set my sights on the position of the Saint Dao Lord!"

"Of course, if the lady also has her eyes on the Saint Dao Lord, then I will definitely compete with you for it."

With that, Chen Chang'an changed the topic and his face showed a solemn expression, as if he would truly do as he said if Fairy Yurong really did something like that.

Fairy Yurong just chuckled.

"Well, you can rest assured. In my eyes, there is only the Heavenly God Dao Lord. I won't bother with that nonsense of the Saint Dao."

"How about we form an alliance?"
