Chapter 472: 260, Demon Cultivators are indeed hypocritical! _2

After all, only with the permission of the Ancient Immortal Ancestor could one come to End-law Mountain.

Yet how did such a demon head manage to gain approval from the Ancient Immortal Ancestor Shuchang? It’s well known that the Ancient Immortal Ancestor Shuchang is one of the world’s most morally upright individuals.

Every time he set up the grand competition for inner disciples, he never let personal relationships interfere with the impartial judging of the competition.

Though the Ancient Immortal Ancestor Shuchang also refined True Spirit Pills, these pills, to tell the truth, weren’t any taboo elixirs, and the ingredients approved by the Ancient Immortal Ancestor Shuchang for use in alchemy couldn’t possibly have originated from a good person, could they?

As for Tan Shuchang’s view of these “acknowledged disciples,” he was utterly indifferent. Despite the desolate scene at his stall with not a soul in sight, in reality, he was making profits every day.

Despite no one openly seeking him out for trades, there were quite a few who secretly approached him using various methods!

...

Over the past three days, a total of five people had come to trade with him, one of whom had relied on a sophisticated method of concealment to come for the exchange without others knowing. The other four had relied on different external forces to trade, all of them secretly concealing themselves, looking sneaky as if afraid of being discovered.

Although only five transactions were made in these three days, Tan Shuchang’s Blood Pool was already soaking twenty True Immortal Souls.

Without exception, all these True Immortal Souls were from the Ghost Path.

For Tan Shuchang, this catch was surely a rich haul!

After all, it would not be at all easy for him to collect twenty souls from the Ghost Path True Immortals himself unless he could go to the Primordial Heavenly Realm, where one could presumably find the Ghost Path True Immortals everywhere.

But this was undoubtedly difficult.

This made Tan Shuchang profoundly grateful to his master, who truly warranted the title of “Demon Ancestor.” Although there were some secrets out in the open, being on the “Demon Ancestor’s” territory, even True Immortal Souls could be acquired so easily.

Tan Shuchang had stayed for another three days, but during these three days, apart from the first day when someone sneakily came to trade two True Immortal Souls from the Ghost Path with him, there had been no one for the ensuing two days.

Seeing this, Tan Shuchang understood that, for the time being, he had probably drained all of the “Ghost Path True Immortal Soul cultivation resources” of End-law Mountain.

This made him somewhat regretful.

After all, he still knew of many treasures in Tianchang Palace.

But this was of little consequence; he could just return after some time had passed, especially since he had traded away many treasures beforehand. And with the benefits of those treasures, those six earnestly acknowledged disciples would surely be able to gather plenty of Ghost Path True Immortal Souls.

Thus, Tan Shuchang left End-law Mountain and headed toward a place he had inquired about beforehand, known to be inhabited by numerous Ghost Path True Immortals.

It was evident that these True Immortals of the Ghost Path still gave him face.

So, Tan Shuchang continued to release his life force.

In this way, after another three days, Tan Shuchang was forced to leave the Earth Yin Valley. Not because there were no more Ghost Path True Immortals left, but because an entity equivalent to a Celestial Master True Immortal had been roused.

Only relying on his high level of immunity to Ghost Path power, was Tan Shuchang able to easily retreat unscathed after a blow from such a being.

“This place really lives up to its dangerous reputation, no wonder despite being notoriously perilous and with the existence of items like the Heavenly Immortal Elixir and True Spirit Pill, it still remains unconquered.”

Tan Shuchang didn’t delve deeper; just revealing Earthly Evil Extreme level life force had drawn out a Ghost Path Path Immortal. If he had ventured further, although he wouldn’t have encountered a Ghost Path Ancient Immortal Ancestor comparable to Heaven’s Authority’s Extreme, there should be one or two entities at his birth mother’s level within the Ghost Path.

However, upon thinking about this, Tan Shuchang couldn’t help but feel somewhat puzzled.

“Mother was born of the Ghost Path, but upon reaching that realm, she transcended the Ghost Path, and even after the world turned upside down with the Netherworld transforming into the Immortal Realm, unable to enter the Immortal Path, she evolved her own path of utmost evil. So why haven’t the entities of this Ghost Path managed to transcend?”

They are both beneath the level of Heaven’s Authority’s Realm; the disparity shouldn’t be this vast!

Because the Path Immortal within the Earth Yin Valley wasn’t just trapped within the Ghost Path, but its ghostly nature was so intense, it was like that of a Fierce Ghost. Ghosts that become immortals need some humanity, and after becoming immortal, humanity naturally begins to suppress the ghostly nature, eventually becoming a different kind of living being.

Thus, the Path Immortal here, even if not able to create a new path like his birth mother, should have some achievements in this respect.

Tan Shuchang did not disregard this seemingly irrelevant disparity, because he thought about how achieving the Ancestor Path Realm here required one to first “undergo Tribulation!”

So, combining the situation of the Earth Yin Valley, Tan Shuchang couldn’t help but have a thought.

“This Earth Yin Valley is undoubtedly dangerous for True Immortals of my level of cultivation. Yet for an Ancient Immortal Ancestor, it should be nothing significant. The Ancestor of the Dao can annihilate three thousand Heaven’s Authority’s Realms with a flip of the hand; even if the Ancient Immortal Ancestors here vary slightly, their strength should be broadly comparable. Yet, they leave the Earth Yin Valley unchecked – is it because the Path Immortals here have no possibility of breaking through?”

“Perhaps, it’s not that only after enduring tribulation does one earn the qualification to attempt breaking through. Instead, it is only after tribulation that one gains the approval of the six Ancient Immortal Ancestors, to be permitted to touch the realms of the Ancient Immortal Ancestor...”

The Ancestor of the Dao would block the path of Heaven’s Authority, so there’s no reason similar circumstances wouldn’t exist here.

At the beginning, due to some reasons, there were no restrictions, thus one after another eventually reached the level equivalent to the Ancestor Path Realm. But later on, those restrictions must have been imposed.
