Chapter 1101: Xiao Lu, in the Future, This Sect Master Position Belongs to No One but You

As the dragon and phoenix intertwined, their aura surged, and the heavens and earth wailed deafeningly. This startling display caused the expressions of the fused Guizhong Tianzun and Hanhai Daojun to change.

This was a technique that had never appeared in any ancient texts, nor had it ever been publicly demonstrated.

The Dragon-Phoenix Transformation!

Unlike the book written by Daoist Buyu, this was the true "Dragon-Phoenix Transformation."

Although Ao Ling and Jiang Lianyi often bickered, they were truly good sisters. They had jointly studied and finally developed this terrifying fusion technique.

To be honest, Lu Yang truly didn't understand why they were fighting. Was it really necessary to go to such lengths just to compete for the title of Fourth Strongest in the Dao Seeking Sect?

Although Guan Shanhai was imprisoned in Prisoner Peak, Prisoner Peak was still part of the Dao Seeking Sect's territory, and the prisoners were considered part of the sect's people.

Of course, once they were released, they could belong to whichever force they wished.

As for ranking the fourth strongest, it was difficult. The Dao Seeking Sect had many Half-Immortals; not to mention elsewhere, there were several in Prisoner Peak alone. The Void Supreme and Nightmare Supreme were both beings capable of founding dynasties.

Without letting them fight it out, it was truly hard to determine who ranked fourth.

"Aren't you the Second Boss, the fourth strongest?" Yun Mengmeng asked, puzzled. "The Second Boss has an immortal body and can even defeat avatars of beings like the Zhongtian Emperor. He must surely be the Dao Seeking Sect's fourth strongest."

"Whoa, whoa, whoa, you can't just say things like that," Lu Yang said, startled. How could he possibly be the Dao Seeking Sect's fourth strongest? What if word got out?

The four individuals, whose fighting spirit was intense and who were ready to fight tooth and nail, heard Lu Yang speak, and their fighting spirit vanished instantly.

"How about we stop fighting?"

Ao Ling voluntarily asked, realizing that fighting so fiercely just to compete for the Dao Seeking Sect's fourth strongest didn't seem worth it no matter how she thought about it.

Guizhong Tianzun and Hanhai Daojun, still fused, nodded simultaneously. If someone was already ranked fourth, what was there to argue about?

They just wondered who the "Immortaless" Lu Yang had mentioned was.

The fiery phoenix dissipated, the immortal body withdrew, and the fusion was undone.

"Hmm, why aren't they fighting anymore?" Lu Yang was busy calculating who could be the fourth strongest when he suddenly noticed the silence around him.

He looked up to see the four individuals who had just been fighting now surrounding him.

Lu Yang was startled, thinking they were going to challenge him, the Dao Seeking Sect's "fourth strongest."

"Little Lu, who was the 'Immortaless' you just mentioned?" Guizhong Tianzun was extremely curious. "This 'Immortaless' was ranked even ahead of Guan Shanhai, the Grand Preceptor of the Great Yu. Who exactly was this extraordinary person?"

Lu Yang was surprised. He had just been chatting quietly with Yun Mengmeng. Could they have heard him even though he spoke so softly?

"Well..." Lu Yang stammered, unsure whether he should reveal the Immortaless's existence.

At this moment, the Immortaless's voice came from his spiritual space: "It's fine, little Yangzi. My existence isn't much of a secret anyway."

A beautiful figure floated out of Lu Yang's body, her beauty unsurpassed. Anyone who saw her would sincerely praise the Immortaless's beauty.

Immortal Unwavering's face was cool as ice, her brows exuding an undeniable majesty that involuntarily inspired awe. Her bright yellow dress emanated an ineffable aura of nobility.

"An Immortal?!"

Guizhong Tianzun and Hanhai Daojun were startled simultaneously. This aura was clearly that of an Immortal!

So, there was an Immortal inside Lu Yang?

"May I ask who you are..."

"I am Immortal Unwavering, chief among the Five Ancient Immortals, and also a guest elder of the Dao Seeking Sect." As she introduced herself, Immortal Unwavering's tone was icy, like a grand being who had traversed eons, witnessing the rise and fall of civilizations.

Lu Yang looked up at Immortal Unwavering in surprise. *Immortaless, have you changed your personality?*

Guizhong Tianzun and Hanhai Daojun's pupils constricted. The chief among the Five Ancient Immortals—that was an incredibly formidable title!

But weren't there only four Immortals in ancient times? Wait, could this be the being who fought the Four Ancient Immortals and forced them to reshape the continent?!

Upon this thought, their attitudes became even more respectful.

"Then, the battle in the Demon Realm not long ago..."

"That was also my doing."

Both of them gasped. The word "shocked" could not even begin to describe their feelings.

At the same time, they envied Lu Yang's luck. The chief of the Five Ancient Immortals residing in his spiritual space was an enormous stroke of fortune.

Probably no one from ancient times until now had ever had such an opportunity.

"You are not to reveal my existence."

"Yes!"

Before the two could say anything, Immortal Unwavering transformed into a wisp of green smoke and floated back into the spiritual space, eager to ask Qinghe.

"How was that? Did I perform well?"

"Your Excellency's demeanor encompasses all ages; your thunder and rain are all divine grace. I am truly impressed, my lord."

"That's good."

Immortal Unwavering thought, pleased, that the teachings of the Yingtian Immortal Cult were still useful.

Her appearance this time was not just about herself but also represented little Yangzi's reputation. She couldn't act as casually as before.

Daoist Xiantian looked at Lu Yang excitedly, with a hint of worship in his eyes.

The three ancestors of the Dao Seeking Sect were both shocked and delighted to learn of Immortal Unwavering's existence. To think that even the chief of the Five Ancient Immortals was a guest elder of their Dao Seeking Sect! They found Lu Yang even more pleasing to the eye.

Presumably, that being was willing to become a guest elder out of consideration for Lu Yang.

"Little Lu, work hard! The position of Sect Master will surely be yours one day!" Guizhong Tianzun encouraged, patting Lu Yang's shoulder vigorously. In his era, everyone vied for the position of Sect Master.

If anyone said Lu Yang couldn't be Sect Master, he would get angry with them.

Since there was no need for a battle, the three ancestors of the Dao Seeking Sect didn't stay and went back to drinking.

Lu Yang recalled the days when Immortal Unwavering served as interim Sect Master and felt that this future wasn't very promising.

"Little Yangzi, don't worry," Immortal Unwavering said, "If that Yun girl doesn't let you be Sect Master, then the two of us will unite and defeat her!" She declared that she would always be Lu Yang's solid backing.

Lu Yang felt that this backing wasn't particularly solid.

"Tired from fighting? Want something to eat?" Yun Mengmeng asked. She always ate a lot after battles, so by extension, Sister Ao Ling and Sister Lianyi probably felt the same.

Meng Jingzhou sat with his five centers facing upwards. Before him lay "The Immortal Art of Primordial Chaos and Unification, Two Principles, Three Powers, Four Symbols, Five Elements, Six Harmonies, Seven Luminaries, Eight Desolations, Nine Earths, Ten Heavens, and Sole Supremacy." This was a cultivation method of the Ninefold Immortals, also known as "The Numeric Immortal Art."

Although it was an immortal art, it wasn't a perfect fit for him, serving only as a reference.

After being defeated by Lu Yang, Meng Jingzhou, far from being discouraged, was instead full of fighting spirit, determined to create a technique uniquely his own.

He consumed a Heart-Forgetfulness Pill, his mind becoming still as water, allowing him to enter a state of enlightenment more quickly.

"Three Heads and Six Arms," "Arhat Fist," "Eight Forms of Heaven Shaking," "The Numeric Immortal Art"—his body was like a great melting pot, breaking down and expanding all the fist techniques and cultivation methods he had learned, transforming them into the simplest runes. Meng Jingzhou's body trembled, and the runes constantly changed with his insights, sometimes simple, sometimes complex, all of them unique runes that had never existed before.

He suddenly opened his eyes, his gaze like lightning, illuminating the dark cave.

"Haha, I succeeded! Just you wait, Old Lu, you're in for a beating!"
