Entry: I Secretly Cultivate Immortality in the Martial Arts World

184: Chapter 184 Our Great Immortal Venerable Doesn’t Cause Trouble, But He’s Not Afraid of It EitherSupreme Creation Small Luo Grotto-Heaven, Hall of Longevity.

The light and shadow on the haotian mirror before Gu Yan shifted, reflecting the scene of the back mountain of the Azure Wave Sect in the Spirit Realm.

He had just ordered Youhun to capture this dragon, not because he wanted it to guard his home, but for another reason.

He had been pondering the matter of Feng Jiuge just now.

That kid was making quite a name for himself in the Demon Realm; Gu Yan hadn’t decided whether to bring Feng Jiuge to the Supreme Creation Small Luo Grotto-Heaven or let him ascend to the Immortal Realm once he reached the Tribulation Crossing Peak.

While thinking about this, he suddenly had a premonition.

Gu Yan was now at the sixth level of the Golden Immortal Realm; the magic power within him was as vast as the sea, and his mind was as steady as a mountain.

At this Realm, such premonitions did not happen easily.

Once it occurred, it meant that something had become mysteriously connected to him.

He used the haotian mirror to deduce the cause.

He eventually discovered that the source of the premonition came from the Nanming No. 73 Mortal Realm.

In this Mortal Realm, before Gu Yan had split off his good body, Fang Yuan, the world’s faith was a landscape of various competing religions.

The Daoist Sect had temples and monasteries, preaching the Dao, performing Alchemy, and cultivating the self.

The Buddhist Sect had temples, chanting scriptures and delivering all living beings.

The Confucian Sect had academies, reading the books of sages and nurturing Noble Qi.

Besides these, there were various miscellaneous sects and unorthodox branches, each competing for followers among the Mortals, preaching and teaching.

Thus, each had its own followers and its own incense offerings.

Although the various sects and Schools had occasional frictions, they generally coexisted peacefully, with no one able to dominate the others.

However, all of this changed within the hundred years following the great harmony under heaven.

In every corner of this world, everyone chanted only a single name.

Great Love Immortal Venerable, Fang Yuan.

Daoist temples became empty; Buddhist temples became empty.

Places that once saw flourishing incense offerings were now deserted.

The clay and wooden statues and Buddhist shrines were covered in dust, neglected.

In their place, ancestral halls for the Great Love Immortal Venerable spread across the world, with flourishing incense and clouds of followers.

But the problem was that this Mortal Realm, unlike the Supreme Creation Small Luo Grotto-Heaven, was not covered by Gu Yan’s red trait, Form of No-Self and No-Form · Red.

The reason the Supreme Creation Small Luo Grotto-Heaven could isolate all investigations was entirely due to the power of this trait.

Without this layer of protection, this Mortal Realm was laid bare, and anyone could see it clearly.

Consequently, the results of the haotian mirror’s deduction showed that forces in the Immortal Realm had already noticed the changes in this world.

And this force was none other than the Buddhist Sect.

The Buddhist Sect originally had followers accounting for sixty percent of the population in this Mortal Realm.

Now, overnight, the followers had all fled, the temples were empty, and the incense had been cut off.

Anyone in their position would have to ask: what’s going on?

The Buddhist Sect emphasized delivering all living beings and spreading the Dharma far and wide, placing great importance on lands of faith.

Now that the Foundation of the Buddhist Sect in this Mortal Realm had been uprooted, it would be strange if they didn’t look into it.

Furthermore, there was a rule within the Buddhist Sect.

Or rather, a habit.

Whenever they discovered that the faith of a certain Mortal Realm had been taken over by another force, they would certainly send someone down to investigate.

If it was a small sect or School, they would simply expel them.

If it was a rival of equal strength, they would negotiate.

If it was a powerful figure they couldn’t afford to provoke, they would just have to swallow their pride and accept it.

In short, they had to find out who did it first and then decide how to handle it.

As Gu Yan was pondering this, he sensed abnormal movements in the Spirit Realm again.

When the image in the haotian mirror shifted, it revealed the scene of the Eastern Sea in the Spirit Realm.
