Chapter 1540
Chen Xuan finally breathed a sigh of relief after watching the last five Celestial Immortals of Nine Dragons Star depart.
In fact, Chen Xuan had his own considerations for letting the five people go. If he could use the Star-Gazing Immortal to completely eliminate the top combat forces of Nine Dragons Star today, then Nine Dragons Star would completely lose its rule and the strength of the more than one hundred resource stars under its jurisdiction.
Soon after, several forces no weaker than the Quasi-Holy City will inevitably fight for the hundred or so resource stars that are now vacant in the outer space of Nine Dragons Star. In the end, no matter who wins and replaces Nine Dragons Star, they will intensify their endless exploitation, killing and intimidation of the newly acquired resource stars.
Since the Nine Dragons Star has been destroyed, Chen Xuan's use of the Heartless Immortal Talisman to summon the Star-Gazing True Immortal will be meaningless—you can't use the sword of the previous dynasty to kill the current minister, can you?
Even if Chen Xuan manages to protect Xuanxiao Star from being ruled and exploited again by the powerful forces that replace Jiulong Star, the continuous large-scale battles between cultivators on their doorstep will be detrimental to the future development of Xuanxiao Star.
As a decision-maker of a tribe, a cultivator with a firm Dao heart, and someone who could plan for over a decade and achieve his goals step by step, Chen Xuan would never allow Lanxing to eliminate five people because of a personal grudge with the cultivators of the Nine Dragons Star, disregarding the overall situation.
He knew exactly what he wanted, and the purpose of doing all this was to secure a stable place for the Longxia clan to live and reproduce, a homeland free from the covetous eyes of external forces.
Only when there were no outsiders left did Chen Xuan look at the Star-Gazing Immortal, clasp his hands and bow, saying, "Thank you, senior."
Lan Xing smiled as he looked at Chen Xuan, who had returned to his original form: "Your talent is rare even among the supreme families and holy lands of the outer space."
"Little Chen Xuan, although my Heartless Holy Land was established at the end of the Immortal Ancient Era, it still possesses the foundation to suppress the world today. Would you... be willing to become my disciple and join the Heartless Holy Land?"
Lanxing looked at Chen Xuan and smiled, "Of course, I will not force you to become my disciple. If you are unwilling, I will leave immediately; if you are willing, I can immediately guide you to the Holy Land."
A core disciple of the Holy Land, and his master is a first-class True Immortal who is about to break through to Immortal King—this opportunity made Xuanxiao Mo, Wuxin Ancestor and other Celestial Immortals' eyes red when they looked at Chen Xuan. What a blessing this is!
After a moment of contemplation, Chen Xuan clasped his hands in a salute, looked at the Star-Gazing Immortal, and immediately stated that he still had many important matters to complete.
Yes, Chen Xuan's purpose in coming to the capital to participate in the Immortal Fate Gathering was to win the championship. He wanted to use the influence he gained from this display of prowess to get His Majesty to help him mobilize three thousand princes to find his clansmen, disciples, Daoist partners, and friends who had been lost in more than thirty provinces.
Although the mission has been accomplished, the important task of settling the tribe and finding its members has not yet begun—in Chen Xuan's view, this is as important as everything else.
Upon learning that Chen Xuan had such a request, it turned out that this young man had made a name for himself at the Immortal Fate Conference in order to seek a permanent place of residence for his tribe and, incidentally, to find his lost clansmen.
The six thousand vassal kings under Xuan Xiaomo's jurisdiction remembered everything Chen Xuan said, and now they might be able to help Chen Xuan.
After listening to Chen Xuan's predicament, Lan Xing looked at Chen Xuan strangely and smiled, "In the past, if a true immortal descended to a low-level star to take on disciples, those disciples who were guided would immediately become his disciples, afraid of delaying us. The future of any tribe would become meaningless in the face of such a great immortal opportunity. They wished they could immediately sever all ties with their original tribes."
Lanxing shook his head: "You are indeed the first person to face such an opportunity and be willing to contribute to the development of the tribe rather than immediately become an apprentice and join the Holy Land."
Upon hearing this, Chen Xuan smiled and said, "My knowledge, what I have seen and heard, and even everything in my life were given to me by the tribe. My greatest motivation for cultivating immortality and becoming stronger also comes from allowing the people of the tribe to live and multiply in this world in peace."
"Hahaha... What a pure heart!" Lanxing laughed heartily upon hearing this. "In that case, I'll give you the choice."
As soon as he finished speaking, the Star-Gazing Immortal pointed a finger, ignoring the distance and directly striking Chen Xuan's brow.
Instantly, an immense amount of information flooded into Chen Xuan's soul and memory.
After a long moment of stunned silence, Chen Xuan looked at the Star-Gazing Immortal with shock and delight, saying, "Thank you for this opportunity, Senior!"
"It's just a star map showing the distribution of major star forces in the Yanlong Realm." Lanxing said solemnly, his hands behind his back, "Once you have settled everything in your tribe, if you can cross billions of star fields to reach the Jueqing Holy Land within three hundred years, I will appear and take you as my personal disciple."
Chen Xuan was extremely surprised, never expecting that this person would value him so much.
"Little Chen Xuan, you must remember this: a tribe cannot survive indefinitely by living in a secluded corner. In this vast universe, our cultivator civilization is constantly on the verge of life and death."
"Sigh... You'd better take care of yourself. I'll only give you three hundred years. After three hundred years, even if you reach the Sacred Land of Heartless Love, I will no longer accept you as my personal disciple." Lan Xing seemed to be speaking from the heart, shaking his head and sighing slightly.
"Yes, Chen Xuan will keep it in mind."
Chen Xuan bowed respectfully. When he looked up, there was no longer a trace of starlight or divine radiance in the surrounding airspace. He could only vaguely sense a terrifying aura fading away until it could no longer be perceived in the endless deep space beyond the star field.
"The outer star fields are truly boundless and vast," Chen Xuan murmured, looking in the direction where the Star-Gazing Immortal had departed.
Without the Nine Dragons Star Celestial Immortal, the Star-Gazing True Immortal also dispelled his Dharma form and descended.
At this moment, Chen Xuan unsurprisingly became the only dazzling figure in the entire capital city.
In the distance, the four lords of the stars, Azure Dragon and Vermilion Bird, also flew to Xuan Xiaomo and the others.
Compared to Xuan Xiaomo's joy at being truly liberated and fulfilling his wish, the four celestial beings who had chosen the wrong path had incredibly dim eyes, their gazes towards Chen Xuan filled with bitterness.
"Brother Xuanxiao, congratulations on achieving your goal after 100,000 years of planning."
"Sigh, wrong choice, all our efforts were in vain. The four of us really misjudged this time, it's just a pity..."
Xuan Xiaomo and the other celestial beings did not mock the four people for choosing to stand by and watch—everything that happened here had taken many turns, and even Xuan Xiaomo had not expected it to end in this way.
"Alas, there's no need to say more; it's all fate."
Xuan Xiaomo offered only a token consolation to the four, then with a grave expression, he led his celestial subordinates towards Chen Xuan's location.
Although the calamity of the Xuanxiao World has passed, the great calamity of Xuanxiao Mo and the Xuanxiao Clan has not yet passed.
Chen Xuan dared to hesitate even when he was invited to the Holy Land to become a true immortal's disciple for the sake of his tribe. With this kind of drive and the strength that Chen Xuan has shown, it is possible that he would even openly declare that he would replace Xuan Xiaomo and become the new Lord of Xuanxiao.
Therefore, one can imagine how terrifying the pressure must be on Xuan Xiaomo, Beishan Wang, Tianhu'er, Wuxin Laozu, and others facing Chen Xuan.
Upon flying closer, Xuan Xiaomo didn't even know how to address Chen Xuan.
Calling him "senior" is inappropriate, given that Chen Xuancai is only at the Nascent Soul stage.
Call him junior? But this person can directly kill a third-level celestial immortal like Qingyun, and there are also powerful figures at the true immortal level who want to take him as a disciple, so he doesn't dare.
