To achieve immortality, I cultivate using Qi Luck

Chapter 896: Chapter 378 Immortal Sect’s Allegiance_3 Chapter 896: Chapter 378 Immortal Sect’s Allegiance_3 Lu Yuan’s strength, it is estimated, has already reached the level of gathering three, perhaps even four or five Qi in Immortal Method.

When that time comes, to deal with Purple Cloud Dao would be a matter of a mere thought.

Just look at his arrogance today, then witness his desolation in days to come.

A gentleman’s revenge is not too late, even after a hundred years.

This was what Lu Yuan bitterly contemplated.

The Xuan Chengzi before him, upon seeing his concession, did not continue to put on a proud demeanor but instead became much more eager to soften his approach: “Your Majesty’s understanding of this point truly benefits both our families.

Your Majesty rest assured, as long as Chu State is willing to accept Purple Cloud Dao, within Ning Country, the four Guardian Divine Generals supported by our sect can be ordered by a single Dao Law command from this Dao master to turn on their allies and surrender the city to Chu State.

Beyond this, I am also willing to send an additional two Inborn elders to serve in the court of Chu State.”
Furthermore, to apologize for the misunderstanding between our sect and Chu State, I am also willing to offer five hundred elixirs as a gesture of apology.”
Xuan Chengzi had no intention to offend Lu Yuan, and Purple Cloud Dao did not mean to have an unyielding struggle with Chu State.

The reason for adopting a tough stance previously was merely to show Lu Yuan that although they submitted, they were not sheep to be slaughtered at will.

Your Chu State may be great and mighty, but do not think of easily bullying Purple Cloud Dao.

Now, having seen that Lu Yuan has recognized this point and has expressed a willingness to reconcile with Purple Cloud Dao, Xuan Chengzi naturally ceased his tough stance and began to display goodwill.

The many concessions and apologies offered above are the sincerity of Purple Cloud Dao.

“Oh, Fellow Daoist Xuan Chengzi is being very courteous.”
Upon hearing the conditions laid out by Xuan Chengzi, particularly the five hundred elixirs promised at the end, Lu Yuan’s eyes instantly lit up, and his tone heated up a notch: “Fellow Daoist rest assured, Great Chu has always been welcoming to talents from all over the world, recruiting heroes from various lands.

Previously, Purple Cloud Dao had some friction with my Chu State, but that is all in the past now.

Now that Fellow Daoist is willing to lead the Mountain Gate to join us, you are most welcome.

From this day forth, our two families will be unified, no more distinction between us.”
Previously, in order to cultivate five True Successor Disciples, Lu Yuan had practically spent all the elixirs he had reserved for them.

Chu State originally had two thousand and seven hundred Divine Blood Elixirs for training five disciples to the Innate level, using up two thousand and five hundred elixirs, leaving just two hundred.

And these two hundred elixirs, in the past two years, as Lu Yuan’s two sons, Lu He and Lu Hao, gradually grew up, began to deplete rapidly.

Lu He and Lu Hao, the two brothers, both underwent Lu Yuan’s cultivation of Spiritual Energy, achieving Inborn Body and Innate Soul at an early age, which could be considered possessing an innate way.

They had no barriers to breaking through Innate.

They just needed to grow in age, slowly consume elixirs, and accumulate enough foundation.

Now, the eldest son, Lu He, at eleven years old, under Lu Yuan’s devoted cultivation, has reached the peak of first-class cultivation and is ready to begin preparing for breaking through Innate.

Indeed, that was the case.

Starting last year, when Lu He turned ten, Lu Yuan had him consume an elixir every ten days to enhance his cultivation foundation.

Still, this was because Lu He’s body had not fully developed, and being so young, the concern was to avoid harming his foundation, thus intentionally slowing down the pace.

Nevertheless, even with thirty-six elixirs a year, it would take only five to six years—after consuming two hundred and fifty elixirs, Lu He would complete the accumulation and smoothly break through Innate.

The same for the second son, Lu Hao.

The younger child also turned ten this year, and Lu Yuan had him follow in his elder brother’s footsteps, consuming elixirs at the same rate every ten days to slowly accumulate foundation.

Together, the two brothers would require over seventy elixirs a year.

The two hundred elixirs remaining in Lu Yuan’s hands would last only three years at this rate.

To ensure that both brothers could successfully break through Innate, he would need to find at least three hundred more elixirs—no small sum.

So, for his sons, he had been diligently scouring for elixirs over the past two years.

After destroying Su Country, he conquered Yulin City, and the Chu Army looted the Su national treasury, obtaining over twenty elixirs.

Given the foundation of Su Country’s predecessor, Nine River Sword Sect, that was clearly not their true stockpile.

Later interrogations of captured Su officials, from the mouths of these former Nine River Sword Sect disciples, Lu Yuan learned that before Yulin City was besieged, Su Xuange had already arranged for his younger son to flee with the nation’s significant resources by ship to Southsea, his whereabouts unknown.

Clearly, the Divine Blood Elixirs and substantial wealth inside Su were taken away by Su Xuange’s younger son.

Not willing to settle for this, Lu Yuan had people search for this younger son of Su Xuange, to retrieve these treasures.

But the sea is vast, finding one person is no easy task.

Lu Yuan did not harbor much hope, merely had people make their best effort.

That the wealth of Su had flown away was heart-wrenching.

Latterly, during the attack on Nanhai Country, upon breaking down Nanhai City, treasures like the Divine Blood Elixirs were found in minimal amounts by the Chu Army.

The Divine Blood Elixirs stored within the Nanhai Sect had also been taken away by the Royal Family of Nanhai Country, along with the Ning Army’s retreat.

Although Qingyunzi and his army quickly pursued and regained some part of it thanks to inside intelligence.

But this portion of elixirs was also small, merely over a hundred.

The bulk of the foundation was still taken away by the Yan Family, back to Ning Country.

Therefore, after the fall of Su and Nanhai Countries, although Lu Yuan gained a vast area and population, the actual gain in cultivation resources was very little.

As for the resources needed for his sons to achieve Innate, he was still short by about a hundred elixirs.

At this moment, the offering of five hundred elixirs by Purple Cloud Dao was undoubtedly a relief to Lu Yuan’s worries.

‘He’er and Hao’er’s cultivation resources are now fully prepared.

Wait another five or six years, and they can both become Innate, adding two more Grandmasters that Great Chu can rely on.

Even with the leftover elixirs, and Great Chu gathers a bit more over these years, gleaning from various places, we should be able to cultivate another Inborn.’
With three additional Innate, the foundation of Great Chu’s dominance becomes ever more solid.’
This is what Lu Yuan thought to himself, looking at Xuan Chengzi with that unsightly face, which seemed not so distasteful anymore.
