TO ACHIEVE IMMORTALITY, I CULTIVATE USING QI LUCK
Chapter 1477 - Chapter 1477 Chapter 575 Alliance Negotiations_3Chapter 1477: Chapter 575 Alliance Negotiations_3 Chapter 1477: Chapter 575 Alliance Negotiations_3 However, this level of power was far from the gap between the early Earth Immortal and the mid-stage Earth Immortal.
So for him, it was not necessary to increase his cultivation by that much.
After all, with the resources of Taiping Dao, it was impossible to support his growth to the late-stage Earth Immortal.
It would require mobilizing the resources of the entire Southern Domain and conscripting three vassals to make it possible.
But to break through the late-stage Earth Immortal was not something that could be achieved in a short time.
Even with the rapid advancement rate of the Fortune Dao, it would take at least five hundred years to accumulate enough.
Dragging it out for five hundred years, the Changqing Immortal Sect would have developed to an unforeseen level.
By that time, even if Jiuzhou Immortal Gate joined forces, many variables would appear in the battle.
This was undoubtedly a negative trend for Lu Yuan.
So after much consideration, he eventually chose to compromise.
A mere slight increase in cultivation would not affect his strength by more than ten percent.
This slight enhancement was not even as significant as having an Immortal Artifact in hand.
There was not much significance in boosting his cultivation to the limit supported by his current resources.
Thus, for the proposal from the Nine Provinces’ side, Lu Yuan actively shortened the timeline.

From initially planning to start the war two hundred years later, he reduced it to one hundred years later.
That was the time for his last two avatars to break through to Earth Immortal.
The original two hundred years was indeed a bit too late and insecure.
If Changqing Immortal Sect’s Yang Jihua and others acquired deeper accumulation or took more risks, it was indeed possible for them to break through to Earth Immortal in just two hundred years.
That would add a strong adversary for him.
Two hundred years was not safe enough.
Waiting a hundred years was definitely no problem.
Lu Yuan had seen Yang Jihua and knew his opponent’s details.
It was impossible for him to break through Earth Immortal in one hundred years.
The opponent was merely a common Earth Immortal and barely qualified as a Chosen one, but only in the ordinary sense.
He was not someone with an unfair advantage like himself.
A hundred years later, the Changqing Immortal Sect would still only have the two Earth Immortals they had now.
By then, with his side bringing out eight Earth Immortals and Jiuzhou Immortal Gate bringing three to four Earth Immortals, the mere two Earth Immortals of Changqing Immortal Sect, even if Song Xiren had reached late-stage Earth Immortal by then, would not be able to stir up any trouble.
This battle, after Taiping Dao and Jiuzhou joined forces, had already determined the winner.

Thus, on the issue of deployment time, the two parties also reached a consensus to start the war a hundred years later.
Alliance relations, deployment methods, and deployment dates were all agreed upon between Taiping Dao and Jiuzhou.
The only thing left was the issue of post-war benefit distribution.
The territory of twenty-three nations within Changqing Immortal Sect was a vast land that neither Taiping Dao nor Jiuzhou Immortal Gate wanted to cede.
Once the two sects decided to join hands, Changqing Immortal Sect no longer had any hope of resistance.
Thus, how to divide these spoils of war naturally became the most concerning topic for both parties.
But the distribution of benefits was the most enticing and also the most difficult.
No one wanted to suffer losses, nor did anyone want to give in.
Eventually, the result was argued back and forth heatedly, even to the point of cursing, almost coming to blows, but it also led to a result that could convince all parties.
On Taiping Dao’s side, given that they had three Earth Immortals, they believed their strength was unmatched among the Jiuzhou Immortal Gates.
Even leading this joint deployment indirectly positioned them as the de facto Alliance Leader.
Therefore, they naturally deserved the largest share of the spoils.
However, this claim was naturally not acceptable to Jiuzhou.
They believed that they had greatly weakened Changqing Immortal Sect in the previous major battle, injuring their vitality so severely that they had not yet recovered, which was the opportunity for this deployment.
In that respect, they believed they merited great recognition.
Moreover, they had five Immortal Sects, with numerous personnel, directly occupying half of the current alliance of ten Jiuzhou Immortal Sects.
Based on this contribution alone, they believed they deserved at least two-thirds of the post-war territories.
And the other few Immortal Sects outside the domain, while they had little interest in the lands of Changqing Domain, also implicitly supported the five sects of the Western Domain, believing that they deserved the larger share.
After all, from what was apparent,
although Taiping Dao had allied with them, the main military force was definitively them in the two-way army.
The most convincing point was that their Earth Immortals surpassed those of Taiping Dao in cultivation, not to mention the number of Human Immortals and ordinary cultivators was far greater.
In both quality and quantity, Jiuzhou Immortal Gate was stronger.
As the main force, they naturally held more say and more rights to distribute the spoils.
And their insistence wasn’t entirely a show of force.
Taking on the main force’s responsibility naturally meant taking on the main risks.
Being the arch-enemy of Changqing Immortal Sect, even if Taiping Dao allied with Jiuzhou, Changqing Immortal Sect would strike at Jiuzhou Immortal Gate first.
They had to bear more pressure and losses; therefore, taking more was only natural.
However, this argument could not convince Lu Yuan either.
Lu Yuan aimed for most of Changqing Domain to strive towards becoming a Heavenly Immortal.
If he let the other side take two-thirds of Changqing Immortal Sect, wouldn’t he be making the bridal dress for others?
Rather than that, he might as well not fight at all.
Neither side could convince the other, and Lu Yuan also did not want to reveal his strength now to cause fear in the other party.
So after arguing for several years, both sides took a step back and chose to let strength and luck determine the final results of the battle.
Since both sides were independent, they might as well fight their own battles; the territories they conquered would belong to the conquerors.
They decided not to worry about post-war distribution, aiming to claim more land purely based on ability during the war.
What you conquer is yours.
What if, in the process of conquering the territories, they encountered more resistance from Changqing Immortal Sect?
Then you could only blame your bad luck; it was not meant to be.
In the Immortal Cultivation World, luck was part of strength; if you couldn’t handle it, you couldn’t blame others.
This plan, mixing strength and luck, was not the best, but it was acceptable to both sides.
Jiuzhou believed they were stronger and could mobilize more forces, gaining more advantages in capturing territories later.
But Lu Yuan also thought himself stronger.
Taiping Dao visibly had three Earth Immortals, but covertly they had eight.
Those hidden five Earth Immortals were the strongest trump cards.
At critical moments, playing these cards could turn the tide of battle and seize territories.
Jiuzhou thought they were stronger and had gained more advantages.
Little did they know, their competitor was stronger, more insidious, and more tenacious.
Signing this alliance agreement now would only lead them to regret it later.
After the final arrangements for the distribution of benefits were settled, Taiping Dao and Jiuzhou’s alliance agreement, after sporadic discussions spanning eight years, was finally officially signed.
Between the two sects, they officially began preparing for the war.
After all, there were only ninety-two years left until the century-long deadline.
Time was running out.
