TO ACHIEVE IMMORTALITY, I CULTIVATE USING QI LUCK

Chapter 1480: Chapter 576 Northern Expedition to Changqing_3 Chapter 1480: Chapter 576 Northern Expedition to Changqing_3 But if it dragged on for over a hundred years, those people would almost reach the stage of Gathering Three Qi, and just in time, they could serve as fresh cannon fodder for the new force on the front line.

Lu Yuan viewed these five thousand people as a reserve force.

Moreover, it was not just these five thousand people; besides the urgently recruited disciples, the intake of new disciples in Taiping Dao would proceed as usual.

The motto was an unending and ever-growing source.

Strategic military force (Earth Immortal), conventional military force (twenty thousand old disciples), and reserve military force (new disciples) all underwent a certain degree of adjustment.

The preparations on the personnel side were more or less complete.

Having completed the personnel preparations, Lu Yuan also began to extensively open the Sect’s treasury, taking out various resources and treasures, and then mobilizing the disciples to massively produce various combat equipment such as spirit talismans, magical artifacts, and formation methods at the Sect.

Some large-scale flying boats, patrol celestial palaces, war puppets, and other strategic equipment were also personally participated in by Lu Yuan and a few of his avatars for the manufacturing.

To gear up for the upcoming war, the entire Taiping Dao had turned into a rapidly operating machine.

It wasn’t just Taiping Dao.

Over there in the Nine Provinces, various supplies and labor had also been mobilized, with everybody making final preparations for this ultimate battle.

…

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, the appointed century had passed.

Mi Yun Mountain.

Inside the Teaching Great Hall, Lu Yuan, who hastily replaced Huang Xuan as the incumbent School Leader before the war, sat at the head, with his few avatars automatically split into two rows and seated.

And further down, on the left were five local Human Immortals nurtured over the years by Taiping Dao.

On the right were five True Persons from Jintai Gate, Xuan Turtle Mountain, and Bihu Palace.

It had been one thousand three hundred years since Lu Yuan’s Ascension into the Immortal Realm from Taiping Dao.

Such a lengthy period, even for Human Immortals, was nearly half their lifespan.

For these several affiliated Immortal Sects, one thousand three hundred years was enough for a power transition and a rotation of old and new within their Sects.

The previous School Leader of Xuan Turtle Mountain had died of old age five hundred years ago.

Afterwards, Zhu Zhenghe took over the position of School Leader of Xuan Turtle Mountain, continuing to lead the Sect in loyalty to Taiping Dao.

However, due to previous dishonesty of this junior Sect, over the years, Lu Yuan had imposed some oppressions on Xuan Turtle Mountain.

Specifically, it involved requisitioning their Qi production to nurture his own people.

Thus, Xuan Turtle Mountain fell into a state of scarcity of resources.

After the death of the previous Human Immortal, they had been unable to cultivate a second Human Immortal for a long time.

Now, only Zhu Zhenghe remained as a Human Immortal, and their strength had weakened.

At Jintai Gate, the previous old School Leader also passed away, with Ouyang Yuan succeeding the position.

However, compared to Xuan Turtle Mountain, Jintai Gate remained loyal to Taiping Dao all this time, which won Lu Yuan’s favor.

Therefore, the resource pressure on them wasn’t as severe as that on Xuan Turtle Mountain.

Taking this opportunity, Jintai Gate had managed to cultivate a new Human Immortal besides Ouyang Yuan, thereby passing on the mantle smoothly.

As for Bihu Palace, this Sect that never had much presence, finally made a significant move after three thousand years, producing a new Human Immortal one hundred and fifty years ago.

However, the current School Leader of Bihu Palace was already very old, aging two thousand seven hundred years.

Additionally, some lingering injuries had further reduced his lifespan, and he was on the verge of decay, with an aura of decline that could not be concealed.

Anyone could see that this person’s life would not last much longer.

So, although they gained another Human Immortal, for Bihu Palace, it didn’t significantly enhance their strength.

The other party had merely cultivated a successor before dying.

Above are the current statuses of the three smaller Sects of Taiping Dao.

“School Leader, by the command of the higher Sect, over these years, my Jintai Gate has been expanding the recruitment of disciples, and now, across the whole Sect, we have two thousand cultivators.

Among them, Twelve at Five Qi Towards Primordial, three hundred at Gathering Four Qi, and one thousand at Gathering Three Qi, with the rest at first or second level of Qi.”

“School Leader, after receiving the higher Sect’s command, my Xuan Turtle Mountain has also been expanding the recruitment of disciples over the years, and now there are one thousand eight hundred cultivators in total.

Among them, ten at Five Qi Towards Primordial, two hundred at Gathering Four Qi, and one thousand one hundred at Gathering Three Qi, with the rest at first or second level of Qi.”

“School Leader, my Bihu Palace now has two thousand cultivators.

Among them, thirteen at Five Qi Towards Primordial, three hundred at Gathering Four Qi, and one thousand one hundred at Gathering Three Qi, with the rest at Gathering either One or Two Qi.”

Ouyang Yuan, Zhu Zhenghe, and others, then started to report their internal Sect statuses to Lu Yuan successively.

“Hmm, combined from the three Sects, five thousand eight hundred persons, four thousand of whom are at Gathering Three Qi or above, and there are also five True Immortals.

These are all eligible individuals; you have done well and haven’t let me down,” Lu Yuan said, nodding in satisfaction as he looked at them.

With a major battle imminent, not only would Taiping Dao’s disciples be on the battlefield, but these junior Sects naturally wouldn’t be an exception.

Though he didn’t plan to use them purely as cannon fodder, to die en masse at the frontline, as affiliates, they still had duties to fulfill.

The presence of these additional five thousand-plus cultivators and five Human Immortals right before the war indeed added a substantial force.

All these efforts of nurturing these junior Sects for over a thousand years weren’t in vain.

“School Leader, there’s also news from Jiuzhou Immortal Gate,”

After the junior Sects had finished reporting, Yi Dancheng stepped forward, reporting his own work results: “They have also mobilized a large army, now assembled in the Western Domain, comprising twenty thousand cultivators, fifteen Human Immortals, and three Earth Immortals.

Among these three Earth Immortals are Ding Wanxuan, the School Leader of Azure Dragon Sect, and Gu Huaiyuan, the School Leader of Wind and Thunder Path, both being Mid-stage Earth Immortals, and they will participate in this great battle.

They are already arrayed and ready for deployment, just waiting for our signal.”

Today’s meeting was the final mobilization before the battle.

Seeing that the Nine Provinces were also prepared and his own junior Sects were ready,

Lu Yuan didn’t delay any further.

He stood up, drew the Taiping Sword from his waist, and with a swing of the sword towards the north, commanded, “By the order of this School Leader, deploy troops, head north to conquer Changqing!”

“At your command!”

All the Immortals below, hearing this, promptly fell in line, bowing to take the order.
