"It’s not a special effect pill at all. It’s just a weakened version of the ’Intention to Ascend an Immortal Pill,’ while simultaneously accelerating the outbreak of the Immortal-Ordinary Miasma within a cultivator’s body..."
"So you’re saying, even without this so-called special-effect dicine, we could’ve held on just by ourselves?"
Compared to Kou Hong, Dao Xuanzi appeared much calr.
Still, he was clenching his fists tightly, his face looking terrible.
"No wonder I’ve been feeling sowhat dazed and confused lately. I’ve been trying to do things but sohow seem lost and unsure. It turns out it was all because of this ’Intention to Ascend an Immortal Pill!’" Kou Hong said through his teeth, suddenly realizing.
"To think that we, as brothers, were grateful and even joined the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals overnight...."
Feeling deeply deceived and insulted, Kou Hong abruptly rose from his seat.
"It’s unbearable, the more I think about it, the angrier I get."
"I can’t stand a mont longer with this Alliance of Thousands of Immortals!"
The fiery-tempered Kou Hong made up his mind then and there.
"Hold on a minute!" Ji Shaoli extended his hand to stop him.
"Heh, I know, Brother Kou, that you’re burning with indignation. But..."
"Have you considered the consequences of leaving the Immortal Alliance?"
Ji Shaoli spoke with profound aning, "I’ve never heard of anyone who left the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals and continued to live well afterward."
Kou Hong’s eyebrows shot up in anger, "What of it? I, Kou Hong, am not one to cling to life out of fear of death."
"Worst case, I’ll expose the secret of this special-effect dicine! Let’s perish together with them!"
"After all, no matter what, I refuse to stay in this so-called Alliance of Thousands of Immortals any longer! It simply disgusts !"
Dao Xuanzi also stood up, clearly having made the sa decision as Kou Hong.
"Both of you are truly genuine and heroic!"
"I was not mistaken in my judgnt!" Ji Shaoli praised, clapping his hands.
"What do you an by this, fellow Daoist?" Dao Xuanzi asked, his gaze flickering.
"I also believe that the Immortal Alliance is unjust. We cultivators should join forces to overthrow it and restore a resplendent cosmos to the Xuanhuang World!" Ji Shaoli said solemnly.
Kou Hong and Dao Xuanzi were shocked and exchanged glances, instantly becoming much more polite toward Ji Shaoli.
But they were rely at odds with the Immortal Alliance, not foolish.
They were rely at the Golden Core Cultivation Level, whereas the Alliance had countless experts of God Transformation and Unity-Path...
Overthrow the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals?
What a joke.
Both pretended not to hear Ji Shaoli’s words and were about to bid farewell and leave.
But how could Ji Shaoli let them go so easily?
In the small secret room, he forcibly inford them about the existence of the [United Federation of All Realms].
The various thods involved, needless to say.
In any case, after his talk, Kou Hong and Dao Xuanzi had shifted from wanting nothing more than to avoid the situation to being visibly moved.
"The most impregnable fortress is often breached from within."
"Our Misthaven Cooperative Union is exactly the nail that’s been hamred into the Immortal Alliance! Hidden and dormant, until the day cos when the ti is ripe, we will completely bury the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals!" Ji Shaoli’s tone was resolute.
"How do you two feel about this?"
Looking at Ji Shaoli’s earnest and passionate eyes, Kou Hong and Dao Xuanzi still hesitated.
They knew very well that this was different from when they were unfettered cultivators speaking their minds. This could get their heads chopped off!
But the situation had reached this point, and knowing the secret of the United Federation of All Realms, they feared they couldn’t safely leave the secret room today if they didn’t agree.
The two brothers hesitated when Ji Shaoli once again increased the stakes.
"Do you know why our Misthaven Cooperative Union, though established only a few years ago, can attract countless cultivators and is renowned?"
"Besides the so-called mutual help and resource sharing, the fundantal reason is that the [All Realities Federation] will select core forces within it and cultivate them."
"All cultivation resources will be made readily accessible."
"For example..."
"Nascent Soul Cave Heaven, Transformation of Deification, even the Essence of Heaven and Earth!"
Although Ji Shaoli’s tone was light, it struck Kou Hong and Dao Xuanzi like a clap of thunder.
Kou Hong couldn’t help but swallow hard, "Is what you say true, Brother Ji?"
Ji Shaoli smiled slightly and nodded in confirmation.
"As two brothers who were previously unaffiliated cultivators, you must surely know the difficulties of cultivation. Let alone the Essence of Heaven and Earth, achieving the Change of Life. Just the Nascent Soul Cave Heaven, do you believe you can find it on your own luck?"
"With no hope of ascending to Nascent Soul, are you content to have your cultivation be locked in the Golden Core Realm forever?"
Ji Shaoli’s voice grew louder, echoing in the minds of Kou Hong and Dao Xuanzi.
Their expressions slowly changed, and they finally made up their minds.
"Being born between heaven and earth, how can one live a diocre life!" Kou Hong declared determinedly within his heart.
"Such a god-given opportunity must not be missed," Dao Xuanzi also said with a grave expression.
"Good! Very good! Then let us hold the mbership ceremony once again. The true mbership ceremony," Ji Shaoli said with a hearty laugh.
Following that, the mysterious and unfathomable Faceless Stone Statue appeared once again above the secret room.
Under Ji Shaoli’s lead, Kou Hong and Dao Xuanzi recited the oath again.
After altering so content and finishing the recitation, they felt as if their minds were bound by an invisible shackle.
The two brothers exchanged glances, a silent dread in their hearts.
"Now that we are all family, I will speak frankly," Ji Shaoli said warmly, pulling the two n to sit by the stone table in the secret room.
"If I’m not mistaken, your Foundation Establishnt Strange Objects are the Taoist Mystic Sword and the Curled Dragon Branch, correct?" Ji Shaoli asked.
How did he figure that out?
The two brothers were so startled that they almost stood up.
Signaling them not to be alard, Ji Shaoli continued straightforwardly, "I perceive that both of you brothers possess exceptional talents. But you’re being held back by the quality of your Foundation Establishnt Strange Objects."
"Let’s not even talk about Heaven’s Oddities or Earth’s Oddities, just upgrading to a superior Human Oddity would promise a future beyond limits."
Despite their considerable self-esteem, the brothers couldn’t resist being flattered by Ji Shaoli’s praise.
Red-faced, they were about to express their modesty.
But Ji Shaoli’s following words instantly captivated their minds.
"Our Cooperative Union selects core mbers not for aptitude or talent, but for their nature!"
"As long as their nature ets the requirents, we will help them..."
"Defy the heavens and change their fates!"
Kou Hong’s breath hitched, "Defy the heavens and change fate? But we have already..."
"Indeed. Have you two ever heard of the ’Re-Establishnt thod’?" Ji Shaoli asked enticingly.
"The Re-Establishnt thod allows cultivators to establish a new Tao Foundation. Not only does their cultivation and magical power remain unaffected, but they can also slowly use the new Tao Foundation to devour and replace the original one. In doing so, they silently complete a transformation to redy past flaws..."
Ji Shaoli explained eloquently, with Kou Hong and his brother’s breathing growing ever more rapid.
"Could there really be such a heaven-defying thod in the world?"
"Indeed. Although both of you have achieved Golden Core, you have only broken through recently. The cost of recultivating after shattering your Gold Cores is not particularly great," Ji Shaoli nodded.
