Chapter 128: The Secret Meeting of the Five Great Immortal Sects



This peak was shrouded in mystery, unknown to anyone outside the high echelons of the Dao Seeking Sect.

The four decision-makers sat quietly, waiting for the organizer of the meeting to speak.

Sensing that everyone had arrived, Yun Zhi awakened from her meditation, opening her eyes that seemed to contain thousands of worlds, countless times and spaces, profoundly mysterious. The other four were momentarily lost in her gaze.

They were shocked, having not seen Yun Zhi for several years. Even back then, she gave them a sense of immeasurable depth, a feeling that had only intensified over the years.

The Dao Seeking Sect was indeed fortunate to have recruited such a genius, and moreover, she was the disciple of that old rascal, Daoist Non-Speaker.

However, Yun Zhi’s profound cultivation was good news for them. With the grand era approaching, abundant spiritual energy, the revelation of the great Dao, the chaos wrought by demonic cults, and the awakening of powers that had slept for hundreds of thousands of years, legendary immortals were gradually emerging.

It was imaginable that these powers and immortals would not abide by the current rules. They would seek to redefine the order and divide territories according to their will, which would be a calamity for both mortals and cultivators.

There were already powerful cultivators awakening, attempting to cause turmoil in the Central Continent, but before they could gain momentum, they were jointly killed by the Five Great Immortal Sects.

Not all immortals were like the Everlasting Fairy, carefree and content.

To say nothing else, the ancient nameless beings who refined stars into continents were a tough challenge.

In such times, the stronger the Five Great Immortal Sects, the more likely they could withstand the upcoming disasters.

Yun Zhi spoke lightly, “Today, I have summoned you here to share some intelligence about the demonic cult.”

The four felt a chill in their hearts, no wonder Yun Zhi had not used conventional methods like transmitting messages but instead asked them to come in person to the Dao Seeking Sect’s secret peak.

This secret peak, blessed by generations of the Dao Seeking Sect’s sages and further modified by Yun Zhi, could conceal fates and cover karmic traces, fearless of any leaks.

Although the demonic cult was not strong, they worshiped immortals and received many immortal treasures and techniques from them. These treasures and techniques were unpredictable and needed to be handled with care.

“As you know, over a month ago, I breached the headquarters of the Everlasting Sect and obtained some intelligence. Among them, two pieces are noteworthy. One is the method to revive the Everlasting Celestial, and the other is about ‘undercover agents.’”

The four straightened up, the revival of immortals was indeed significant news.

They had heard that Yun Zhi had taken down the stronghold of the Everlasting Sect but didn’t know how she had found it.

“The ariya-phala of the Everlasting Celestial is very special. Even if he is utterly destroyed and his soul scattered, as long as someone utters his title and immortal name, whether intentionally or unintentionally, he can be revived!” (TL Note: Yun Zhi used “he” instead of “she”. I assume it’s because she’s talking about the Everlasting Celestial and not the Everlasting Fairy)

The hearts of the four thundered. The ariya-phalas of immortals were indeed not simple. The ones they had known about were related to enhancing combat power, but this was the first time they encountered one purely about survival.

“The intelligence also mentioned that the Everlasting Sect has placed undercover agents within Moon Laurel Immortal Palace, the Prison-Suppressing Sect, and the Five Elements Sect.”

In reality, this information was not obtained from the headquarters of the Everlasting Sect but from Tang Yunsheng, an inspector, who provided it to Lu Yang.

When Tang Yunsheng arranged for Lu Yang and others to infiltrate as undercover agents, he mentioned that among the Five Great Immortal Sects, apart from the Hanging Temple, which had few members, and the Dao Seeking Sect, which was full of lunatics making it hard to plant undercover agents, the other three sects had undercover agents within them.

The Five Great Immortal Sects are as follows: the Dao Seeking Sect, known for its Daoist techniques and creativity, where the other four gates caution their juniors to steer clear; the Hanging Temple, known for its compassion and potent strength despite having the least number of members, sometimes only a master and disciple; and the Moon Laurel Immortal Palace, which believes the moon harbors unspeakable secrets and practices cultivation with the help of the moon, surrounded by laurel trees.

The Prison-Suppressing Sect, which suppresses all demons and evil spirits.

The Five Elements Sect, believing in the unity of the five elements and mastering the ultimate truth of the five elements.

The other four great immortal gates think Dao Seeking Sect is incompatible with them.

Dao Seeking Sect believes the other four great immortal gates are incompatible with it.

Despite these differences, the relationship between the Five Great Immortal Sects is still very good.

“So, it’s about the undercover agents.” The master of the Moon Laurel Immortal Palace was not surprised; she is Lan Ting’s master, and Lan Ting had told her some things.

“Amitabha.” The abbot of the Hanging Temple did not say much. Their Hanging Temple did not have demonic cult undercover agents, partly because of their small numbers and partly because their beliefs differed. People from the demonic cults chant sutras and observe precepts all day long, which would likely lead to a collapse of their Dao heart, making it too easy to reveal their flaws.

“It’s unexpected that my Prison-Suppressing Sect, which aims to suppress all heretical paths, ended up having an Everlasting Sect infiltrator. I will conduct a thorough investigation once I return!” The master of the Prison-Suppressing Sect was furious but restrained himself due to the occasion.

“Since there are undercover agents, it’s likely not just the Everlasting Sect; other demonic cult undercover agents might also be hidden. We need to conduct a thorough investigation.” The master of the Five Elements Sect said coldly, showing how daring the demonic cults were, essentially disregarding their Five Elements Sect.

“How shall we investigate the undercover agents?” asked the master of the Moon Laurel Immortal Palace.

“Isn’t the Everlasting Sect a follower of the Everlasting Celestial? How about we have our disciples shout ‘Everlasting Celestial is a bastard’ together?” suggested the master of the Five Elements Sect.

The four nodded, thinking this was a good idea.

The master of the Prison-Suppressing Sect added, “Another method is to use a list of suspects we all surely have. We could have someone on the suspect list say ‘The master has recited the immortal name of the Everlasting Celestial, and the Everlasting Celestial has been revived. The master has ordered all followers to gather at the headquarters.’”

The righteous path does not know the method to revive the Everlasting Celestial, so if an Everlasting Sect undercover agent hears this, they will most likely think the speaker is a fellow cultist.

Yun Zhi shook her head: “This could alert them. The suspect list contains not only Everlasting Sect undercover agents but also agents from other three sects. If they hear you saying this, they’ll know you’re investigating for undercover agents.”

The master of the Prison-Suppressing Sect felt Yun Zhi’s point was valid and did not propose further.

“Right, the Dao Seeking Sect doesn’t have undercover agents, right? I wonder if Yun Zhi could share some insights?” The master of the Five Elements Sect said, earning agreement from the other three.

Yun Zhi rarely frowned, puzzled by the question. She also didn’t know why the Dao Seeking Sect not only lacked demonic cult undercover agents but could also infiltrate the demonic cults as undercover agents.

“Perhaps it’s because the disciples of Dao Seeking Sect are simple-minded, while demonic cult followers have complex thoughts, unable to disguise themselves as Dao Seeking Sect disciples.”

The five then thought of many malicious methods to investigate undercover agents, with the abbot of the Hanging Temple proposing the most ruthless. If these methods were made public, the world’s perception of them would turn one hundred and eighty degrees.

After the secret meeting concluded, the five left the mountain peak, with three leaving the Dao Seeking Sect and only the master of the Moon Laurel Immortal Palace staying behind.

“What matter brings Master Luo here?” Yun Zhi asked, with the Moon Laurel Immortal Palace’s master named Luo Hongxia.

Luo Hongxia called over Lan Ting, who was reluctant to come: “Does your Dao Seeking Sect have a disciple named Lu Yang? I have some business with him. My Lan Ting, such a good child, was led astray by him. I want him to compensate!”

Yun Zhi calmly suggested, “Why not have the two become Dao companions?”

Luo Hongxia’s expression stiffened.
