111: Chapter 49 The Proper Affair of a Qi Cultivator 111: Chapter 49 The Proper Affair of a Qi Cultivator A gong and drum reverberated through the heavens, six white clouds hung amidst the celestial mist.
On the island, the cloud platform had not dispersed, with several immortals from the Sea Watch Sect still remaining there, maintaining the stability of the cloud platform.
——There must be a place for ranking and awarding prizes afterwards.
On the white cloud of the Wanyun Sect, the disciples were hurriedly regulating their breaths in ditation, adjusting their condition to its optimum state.
Li Ping’an and Ningning Mu still occupied an inconspicuous corner, their arms separated by rely three inches, a slight lift of the hand seeming as though it could touch the other.
Li Ping’an could sll her hair’s fragrance, Ningning Mu could hear her senior brother’s breathing.
“Senior brother.”
Ningning Mu’s pretty face blushed slightly as she took the initiative to tug at Li Ping’an’s sleeve, using voice transmission to ask a question of no great importance.
“Why does everyone prefer to use the sound of gongs?”
This question, she had pondered for quite so ti, and the answer was not particularly important.
Li Ping’an smiled as he replied through voice transmission, “At such events, there are actually not many sounds that can be used.
String music is too soft, wind music lasts too long.
The sound of gongs, drums, and large bells, or even explosions, are most suitable for creating an opening sound for such occasions.”
“Oh,” said Ningning Mu, “I see.”
Then, her small hand tugging on Li Ping’an’s sleeve remained there and did not retract.
Li Ping’an slowly lowered his left hand, allowing her to hold it in an even more concealed manner.
A white veil covered Ningning’s cheeks, only revealing the mischievous smile in her peach blossom eyes.
‘Senior brother has not pulled away.’
Gu Qingcheng, the deputy leader, had already made a round among the disciples, dividing the ‘Li Ping’an-made’ enhanced Blast Cloud Pills evenly—no more, no less, his main principle being fairness and justice.
Afterwards, Gu Qingcheng said, “Everyone, please group up as we decided earlier.”
The disciples shuffled around, forming six teams of five and two teams of four, bowing to each other in greeting.
An administrator of the Immortal Realm exclaid, “The elders have spoken, disciples, listen!”
The disciples imdiately quieted down and looked towards Elder Yansheng at the forefront of the white clouds.
Elder Yansheng took a puff of thousand-year Spiritual Root smoke, then spoke slowly:
“Then, I will keep it brief.
“Our Human Race was born in ancient tis, initially as one of the Hundred Clans.
However, endowed with the grace of creation by the Holy Mother Nuwa, we were born with innate Dao Bodies and found it much easier to comprehend The Great Dao than other beings, thus we began to flourish.
“Due to our impressive brilliance, we aroused jealousy.
The Ancient Heavenly Court, which was supposed to be governed together by the Hundred Clans, began to oppress us, with most of the clans opposing and repeatedly waging wars against our Human Race.
“When our Human Race was at its weakest, in all of this vast world, there were fewer than ten thousand humans.
“Fortunately, the Holy Mother returned from beyond the heavens in ti, ensuring the survival of our people.
“Thus, despite the Hundred Clans’ attempts to eradicate us, our Human Race persisted and even thrived after great calamities.
Heroes and sages erged amongst our ancestors, while the Ancient Heavenly Court suffered great damage from internal strife within the Hundred Clans.
“Later, the fire emperor Suiren from our Human Race erged, cutting off more than a dozen generations of the Ancient Heavenly Court’s fortunes.
Starting from the Southern Continent, our Human Race occupied a seat for itself, and an era of prosperity began.
“Subsequently, the Three Pure Ones appeared, passing down nurous cultivation thods to our Human Race, aiding in our thorough prosperity.
“Today, our Human Race possesses the lands of the Southern Continent and East Continent.
Footprints of our Qi Cultivators span all across the four continents and hundreds of locations, and gradually more Human Race Qi Cultivators’ abodes appear beyond the sky.
“The Southern Continent has beco the foundation of our Human Race’s fortunes, protected by the Holy Mother with the Skycutter Great Array;
“The East Continent is a place of cultivation for Human Race Qi Cultivators, inheriting The Great Dao from the Three Pure Ones.
“When our Human Race overthrew the Heavenly Court, the Hundred Clans retreated to the Western Continent, seeking refuge under the two Sect Hierarchs of the Western Sect;
“At that ti, under the diation of the two Sect Hierarchs of the Western Sect, our ancestors, mindful of the difficulty of all ancient creatures’ existence, chose not to completely annihilate the Hundred Clans.
This decision hence sowed the seeds of disaster.
“The Hundred Clans, once they had slightly recovered, began to cause disturbances in our Human Race’s lands.
After the masters of the Hundred Clans developed their innate Dao Bodies, as long as they could conceal their true forms, they were hardly distinguishable from our Human Race to the naked eye.
Specializing in transformation techniques and avoiding pursuit by our high-level experts, they then infiltrated various places, killing the innocent.
“What you usually hear as the Demon Race had many nas, such as spirits, sacred beings, and could also be referred to by the nas of their original species before cultivation, like the Pig Demon Race, Magpie Race, and so on.
“However, now, we call all of them by a single term—demons.
“This grudge that has extended over several epochs, it’s uncertain when its end will co.”
Elder Yansheng sighed softly, then continued:
“Therefore, when dealing with the demon race, you scholars need not show any rcy.
Except for a small number that have spontaneously cultivated from local creatures, most of the demons appearing near the East Continent are enemies stained with the blood of our Human Race.
“Cultivation is not only for the Longevity Dao Fruit but also to protect all living beings.
“We, as Qi Cultivators of the Human Race, enjoying the blessings and protection of our ancestors, must uphold the legacy of our ancestors and stand resolutely against the demons!
“The ancient ruin before us witnessed a great battle two years ago.
A powerful demon foolishly thought to benefit from the chaos, only to be slain by the combined strength of our Human Race Qi Cultivators.
“The grudge of the slayed demon’s soul turned into a poisonous miasma.
Most of the minor demons now inhabiting this area are sea creatures tainted by this miasma, and today so creatures placed secretly by the Sea Watch Sect immortals will also appear.
“Hence, you may act freely today, consider it a test of the Dao Fruit you’ve cultivated over the years.”
Li Ping’an, along with the other disciples, bowed and accepted the command: “We heed the elder’s orders!”
“Disciples, rember this as well!”
Another elder from the outer court reminded:
“Firstly, fellow sect mbers should protect each other, and never neglect to rescue those in danger!
