Cultivation System: Stronger with Age

Chapter 1304 - 562: Master of the Divine Communication Demon King (Part 2)

In this Great Xia Dynasty, Emperor Xiaoo is the most supreme powerhouse, possessing the highest authority and influence. Even figures to whom Emperor Xiaoo must pay homage are threatened, how could these soldiers not be terrified, not be shocked, not give their utmost when bowing down!Not only these hundreds of soldiers,

but countless cultivators watching around also turned pale upon hearing the call of City Lord Jiang of Great Marsh Prefecture, and fell to their knees in unison.

Those who had previously mocked or even insulted and teased Third Princess Xiaoo Ying’Er felt their hearts pounding like drums, and bowed with such force that fragments of the bluestone slabs flew about wildly!

Though most of them were not aware of the title of Great Virtue and Clarity True Body Daoist Golden Heaven Venerable Three Saints Lady, they knew perfectly well that anyone who could make City Lord Jiang, already of late-stage Grade Eight power, bow incessantly, must be terrifying beyond imagination!

As for Great Virtue and Clarity True Body Daoist Golden Heaven Venerable Three Saints Lady mentioned by City Lord Jiang, although they hadn’t heard of it before, they understood well that anyone whom even Emperor Xiaoo of the Great Xia Dynasty had to annually bow to with all the civil and military officials certainly belonged to a great figure of the Immortal Realm, an entity devastating enough to sweep away tens or hundreds of thousands of martial cultivators with a single finger!

As everyone continuously kowtowed,

a strange sound of soil turning came from within the mansion of the Divine Communication Demon King,

soon followed by a shadow gradually approaching, making everyone pause again as they stole a glance while bowing!

For the hundreds of soldiers present, City Lord Jiang, envoys from the Rakshasa Kingdom, and the countless cultivators, all suddenly discovered that the shadow was in fact the Divine Communication Demon King’s tree crown moving towards them, accompanied by the tree trunk that had never moved before, along with countless thick roots!

Those roots were squirming through the soil, moving the massive body of the Divine Communication Demon King quickly!

And at this moment, the Divine Communication Demon King, recognized as the number one Demon King by countless cultivators of the Great Xia Dynasty, revealed, at the center of its huge tree trunk, a face resembling that of an old man, showing a complex expression as it looked towards Lin Xuankong.

Moments later, this Divine Communication Demon King, revered by countless cultivators of the Great Xia Dynasty, suddenly spoke:

"Master, you’ve finally returned. Ten thousand years passed in the blink of an eye, but Master, your grace surpasses even that of those times! In hindsight, if it weren’t for Master expending countless precious resources to fully transform my old willow tree’s foundation, how would there have been any chance for me to embark upon the path of cultivation, let alone ascend to the Tenth Layer of Transcendence. Otherwise, I might have long perished over ten thousand years ago!"

The old willow tree cannot repay Master’s great grace, and only wishes to serve by your side, as a beast of burden, to repay even a fraction of your great kindness!"

Upon finishing, this gigantic old willow tree curled its roots and drooped its canopy, appearing just like a member of the Human Race bowing to the ground!

Lin Xuankong, seeing the old willow tree rush over from the courtyard in such haste, felt a stir in his heart, and stepped towards it, stopping in front of the massive trunk, reaching out to touch the tree trunk, all the while with a smile on his face,

"When I was cultivating the Spiritual Crane Finger back in those days, I left quite a few marks on your trunk. With your current Tenth Layer of Transcendence realm, you should be able to easily erase these marks, old fellow. Could it be that you left them on purpose, still holding a grudge?"

Upon hearing this, the old willow tree trembled a few times, as if recalling the fear dominated by the Spiritual Crane Finger back then; despite not yet having fully developed spiritual wisdom at that time, it had a deep bodily memory!

"I don’t dare, I don’t dare! Without Master’s care, this old willow tree would have long withered away a hundred times,

This old willow tree is eternally grateful to Master, and there is no time to thank you enough, how could it dare hold a grudge against Master!

As for these marks, I mainly kept them because Master mentioned you might return someday. The old willow tree was worried that you might not recognize it upon your return to the Great Xia Dynasty, so it purposely left these marks, so you could recognize the old willow tree at a glance when you returned!"

Even though due to vast differences in strength, it couldn’t ascertain Lin Xuankong’s exact realm, the old willow tree, having become the Divine Communication Demon King, could feel Lin Xuankong’s unfathomable depth before it! Moreover, the old willow tree was indeed full of gratitude toward Lin Xuankong from the bottom of its heart, and these words were sincerely spoken!

"Hmm, if that’s the case, it seems you do have a bit of conscience, old willow tree!

However, speaking of which, even without guidance, you managed, through the talent of ordinary trees, to cultivate hard to reach the Tenth Layer of Transcendence, which indeed surprises me! It appears that though looking very ordinary, you have a comprehension far exceeding that of geniuses! All things considered, old willow tree, you have indeed made your master quite proud!"

Lin Xuankong was not deliberately flattering with these words.

Once upon a time, before his realm reached the Initial Tier Earth Immortal, Lin Xuankong had also, relying on elixirs and talent, pushed his realm to the Tenth and Eleventh Layers of Transcendence, thus strengthening his foundation and paving an unparalleled foundation for the immortal path in the entire Golden Dragon Immortal Realm!

But after all, Lin Xuankong achieved this by relying on elixirs; this old willow tree, which he casually enlightened in the past, managed to elevate its strength to the Tenth Layer of Transcendence, comparable to an Initial Tier Earth Immortal’s realm, relying solely on its ability, talent, and comprehension. Such talent and comprehension have never been seen in the millions of years of Golden Dragon Immortal Realm’s history!

Though naturally delighted over reuniting with Old Willow,

Lin Xuankong’s conversation with the old willow tree left the numerous cultivators present with expressions of extreme astonishment.

City Lord Jiang Lingyun of Great Marsh Prefecture City, who was initially bowing to Third Princess Xiaoo Ying’Er, after listening to Lin Xuankong and the old willow tree, gradually arose a thought too outrageous to believe: that beside the Great Virtue and Clarity True Body Daoist Golden Heaven Venerable Three Saints Lady, today, Lin Xuankong, known for his talent and power greater than the Three Saints Lady and who changed the entire Great Xia Dynasty, had also come to Great Marsh Prefecture!

Lin Xuankong... The chronicles of the Great Xia Dynasty clearly record that even among the numerous immortals within the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect, Lin Xuankong’s power was unmatched! The Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect, drawing in talents from the Great Xia Dynasty every few centuries, besides the influence of the Great Virtue and Clarity True Body Daoist Golden Heaven Venerable Three Saints Lady, is reportedly mainly due to this Lin Immortal!

Oh my god, what terrible luck did I, Jiang Lingyun, geet today? Not only did my subordinates today scold the Great Virtue and Clarity True Body Daoist Golden Heaven Venerable Three Saints Lady, but they also scolded Lin Immortal who holds greater status and power than the Three Saints Lady!!!

At this moment, the City Lord of Great Marsh Prefecture suddenly had the impulse - to kowtow and kill himself on the spot here, otherwise, if this Great Virtue and Clarity True Body Daoist Golden Heaven Venerable Three Saints Lady or Lin Immortal harbored even a slight grievance, it could easily flatten the entire Profound Talisman Celestial Sect!

Despite himself being so shocked and panicked,

the numerous officers far less powerful than Great Marsh Prefecture’s City Lord Jiang, and the numerous cultivators kneeling around, were clearly even more bewildered and astonished!

Ninety-nine percent of them had never heard of the name Lin Xuankong, after all, his deeds were documented in the Great Xia Dynasty’s chronicles. But they were familiar with the Divine Communication Demon King!

The Divine Communication Demon King, guarding Great Marsh Prefecture for ten thousand years, hailed as the foremost Demon King of the entire Great Xia Dynasty, and even Emperor Xiaoo of the Great Xia Dynasty would visit every year to pay respect and offer tributes. Yet this incomparably distinguished Divine Communication Demon King displayed extreme reverence before this young man, repeatedly addressing him as "Master"!
