Chapter 518: Chapter 490: The Origin of the Five Elders Organization
“Hurry up! Stop dawdling!”
Ten Thousand Immortals Island was almost leveled, and the cultivators of the Five Elders Organization began digging underground.
Li Fan wanted to continue watching, but was scolded by an armored cultivator and forcibly moved away from this place.
Several teams of armored cultivators ford an array that herded the crowd from the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals like sheep to the outside of a small cave at the bottom of a gorge.
There was a demonic wind blowing out of the cave entrance, giving off a terribly eerie and horrifying aura.
“Get in! What are you dallying for!”
The leading armored cultivator plunged his weapon into the ground and ordered like a thunderbolt.
Resentnt was written across the faces of several people. They exchanged glances, seemingly discussing rebellion in secret.
However, they accepted their fate when they recognized that they were against a superior force. After so hesitation, they capitulated one by one and entered the gloomy cave.
Li Fan, occupying a puppet body, naturally didn’t feel much fear.
However, in order to avoid drawing attention and for the sake of surviving a little longer, he also pretended to be highly scared and followed behind the crowd.
As soon as he stepped into the cave, all light disappeared from view.
The next mont, a scene entirely different from their expectations erged before their eyes.
Instead of a winding dark passage in the mountain, they inexplicably found themselves in a green valley.
In the distance, they could see a wooden pavilion.
About a dozen or so people were sitting on the ground in front of the pavilion, listening to a scholar-like cultivator talking about sothing.
Realising that they were not about to be tortured or beaten, the cultivators from the Alliance of Ten Thousand Immortals, who had been restless and contemplating resistance, beca calm again.
They decided to observe the situation further before making a move.
Under the escort of the armored cultivators, everyone slowly approached the pavilion.
Li Fan, who was hidden among the crowd, noted so changes happening to his body as they got closer. His complexion changed slightly.
As they approached the scholar in the pavilion, their bodies seed to be shrinking continuously.
This transformation only applied to the captives from the Alliance of Ten Thousand Immortals. The armored cultivators, the scholar, and even the scenery in the surrounding valley remained unchanged.
Therefore, although they kept moving forward, it seed as if the destination was getting farther and farther away.
This peculiar situation caused a slight disturbance in the ranks of the Alliance of Ten Thousand Immortals, but it was promptly suppressed.
“Hurry up!”
In their eyes, the armored cultivator had expanded to the size of a small mountain.
He showed no rcy and kept on urging them.
For the first ti, seeing people from the perspective of a real ant, cultivators from the Alliance of Ten Thousand Immortals could hardly maintain their composure.
Their faces gradually turned pale, and they subconsciously followed the orders of the armored cultivators.
As they continued to move forward, their shrinking did not stop.
By the ti they reached the pavilion after nearly ten days, the scholar had grown to the size of a mountain in their eyes, filling the sky and supporting the earth.
“Sit,” said the scholar in a gentle tone.
However, his words echoed in their ears like a resounding bell, filling Heaven and Earth.
His words reverberated constantly in their hearts.
They seed to reach the depth of their souls. Even if they blocked their self-awareness, they still couldn’t stop hearing the scholar’s words in their spirit consciousness.
Therefore, they all lost control over their bodies and obediently sat on the ground.
“What kind of Divine Technique is this?”
All of the people were shocked.
After the armored cultivators had bowed to the scholar and saw that everyone from the Alliance of Ten Thousand Immortals had sat down, they quietly left.
The scholar glanced at the crowd and sighed gently, “Another group of lost lambs.”
“However, since you all could make it here, I won’t let you go astray again.”
The people who considered themselves as cultivators of the Alliance of Ten Thousand Immortals, naturally disapproved of these words upon hearing them.
“In your eyes, what is the Five Elders Organization?” the scholar quietly asked at this mont.
“They use Puppet Body Techniques to manipulate cultivators, truly wicked!”
“Barely clinging to life, they’ll be annihilated by the Alliance of Ten Thousand Immortals within a thousand years.”
“Ignorant, backward!”
“Although they are not good people, but managing to contend with our Alliance of Ten Thousand Immortals for so long, they must have their strengths.”
…
Under the scholar’s inquiry, everyone involved gave their answers, explicitly stating the thoughts in their minds.
The shock on their faces, however, clearly suggested that they weren’t answering voluntarily.
But not all the cultivators lost control and answered involuntarily in response to the scholar’s questioning.
At least the puppet body which Li Fan was occupying, was not affected.
Also, so Nascent Soul Stage cultivators resisted the scholar’s control and kept their brows furrowed.
“Isn’t this the group version of the Celestial Doctor’s technique of ‘asking’?” Li Fan was also stunned.
“Even though its power doesn’t seem as strong as when the Celestial Doctor performs it himself, the subjects it’s affecting are so many.”
Li Fan stayed highly alert, preparing to abandon the puppet body at any ti.
Fortunately, the scholar didn’t pay too much attention to Li Fan.
People kept responding. The scholar listened attentively with a smile on his face.
After a long ti, when everyone finished speaking, the outside of the pavilion gradually fell silent.
The scholar shook his head and said, “Greatly mistaken!”
“Do you know where our Five Elders Organization originated?”
Everyone shook their heads.
“After Celestial Dharma Bearer created the New thod, leveraging on the astonishing rate of Cultivation, rogue cultivators initiated an attack on the Xian Dao Sect.”
“And within the Sect, they split into two factions, fighting and killing each other.”
“However, we didn’t have ti to clarify who was the winner…”
Instead of answering directly, the scholar began narrating history to the crowd.
“The Great Calamity descended. No two laws could be cultivated concurrently.”
“The Immortal Dao Sects suffered a devastating blow, leaving only one in a hundred.”
“But after dominating the Xuanhuang World for tens of thousands of years, their foundation was profound.”
“There were so Sects that had survived, they escaped from this calamity. They secluded themselves waiting for the bloody storm to pass.”
“When the slaughter was over and the darkness vanished, on the ruins of their world, they united again.”
“This is the beginning of the Five Elders Organization.”
Despite their shocked reactions, the scholar spoke slowly.
“The conflict between Alliance of Ten Thousand Immortals and Five Elders Organization is actually still the quarrel between the new and old forces of Cultivation.”
“All conflicts in the world stem from the oppression exerted by predecessors on successors.”
“Hence it has been ongoing for thousands of years and hasn’t ended.”
“There will be no end until a clear victor erges.”
“Being in the middle of the Alliance of Ten Thousand Immortals and being deceived is normal, no one can bla you.”
The scholar showed a lanting expression.
All of the cultivators from the Alliance of Ten Thousand Immortals who were sitting on the ground listening to the scholar’s lecture, were surprised.
Although they had gotten used to the existence of the Five Elders Organization, this was the first ti they heard about its origins.
Li Fan, upon hearing these words, was not as surprised as the other cultivators.
Sister Zhao, one of the five Immortal Sovereigns of the Five Elders Organization, was the Sect leader of the Great Taoist Sect, originally one of the Immortal Dao Ten Clans.
Therefore, Li Fan had long surmised that the Five Elders Organization was ford by the surviving Sect cultivators from the past.
