Chapter 3502 Opening the Immortal Pond
Mu Yuntian and Zhao Wuxiang exchanged glances, both somewhat surprised, not expecting the Purple Firmament Immortal King's Mansion to send someone at this time.
Normally speaking, although the Five Great Sects of Zixiao Heaven hold esteemed positions, they are all subject to the Immortal King's Mansion's restrictions.
Because of this, despite being the Sect Master, Mu Yuntian still had to rise to greet the Immortal King's Envoy.
Soon, he led his people out, where a black-clad Envoy stood in the courtyard.
Mu Yuntian said with a beaming smile, "Envoy, what brings you here?"
"It's like this, the Immortal King has given an order to open the Purple Firmament Immortal Pool to the Disciples of the entire Zixiao Heaven three days from now…"
The black-clad Envoy, meticulous, announced the Immortal King's Mansion's order according to protocol!
After he finished speaking, everyone present was shocked.
As Immortals of Zixiao Heaven, they naturally knew what kind of existence the Purple Firmament Immortal Pool was.
It was a treasured land of heaven and earth, a sacred hall for Cultivation; in the past, the Immortal King's Mansion cherished it greatly, not allowing any Sect to touch it, so why was it suddenly open today?
The black-clad Envoy seemed to sense their confusion, put away the mandate in his hand, and then handed over a letter.
"Sect Master Mu, this is a letter from the Immortal King."
Mu Yuntian took the letter, tore it open, and read it from beginning to end; there weren't many words on it, but the general meaning was that after receiving a tip from Tianji Mountain Manor, as the controller of Zixiao Heaven, he was deeply worried and sleepless.
For the peace of the Lower Heaven Region, for the Immortals of the world, and to cope with this great tribulation.
The Purple Firmament Immortal King's Mansion, from a perspective of righteousness, opened the Purple Firmament Immortal Pool for a hundred Disciples below the Great Luo Immortal Rank to enter and Cultivate.
The ultimate goal was to enhance the overall strength of Zixiao Heaven, and once the tribulation arrived, to reduce losses and casualties.
In short, this letter was filled with righteousness and stirring passion.
Mu Yuntian nodded repeatedly after reading it, "The Immortal King's righteousness is truly a blessing for Zixiao Heaven!"
"That is natural!"
After the black-clad Envoy finished speaking, he flipped his wrist, and four black tokens appeared in his palm.
"These are special tokens made by the Immortal King; only by possessing them can one enter the Purple Firmament Immortal Pool, and each of the Five Great Sects of Zixiao Heaven receives four!"
Mu Yuntian was slightly stunned, "Didn't you say there were a hundred slots for the opening of the Purple Firmament Immortal Pool this time? Now only four tokens are being distributed; isn't that a bit too few?"
"Not at all."
The black-clad Envoy said, "The Immortal King said that the Five Great Sects are already powerful, so fewer tokens were given to them.
The remaining eighty tokens will be given to the smaller Sects and other Immortals in Zixiao Heaven, as this is everyone's tribulation, and it cannot be borne by just a few Sects.
Meaning, whoever holds a token can enter the Purple Firmament Immortal Pool, regardless of their background or origin; everything is based on the token."
Mu Yuntian paused, then said, "Since the tokens are so precious, wouldn't this cause others to fight over them?"
"That's nothing; the Immortal King said that we are to select the strong.
No matter how one obtains a token, it represents one's strength, so only the ultimate victors are qualified to enter the Purple Firmament Immortal Pool.
Additionally, the Immortal King has given an order that Immortal King Rank powerhouses from various Sects can only protect their own Disciples and are not allowed to seize tokens from others.
Otherwise, not only will they be stripped of the qualification to enter the Immortal Pool this time, but they will also suffer the Immortal King's punishment."
"Oh!"
Although Mu Yuntian was somewhat puzzled, he could not question the Purple Firmament Immortal King's order.
"Envoy, are there any requirements for those holding the tokens? For example, in terms of strength."
"There are no requirements whatsoever; as long as you hold a token in your hand, you can enter."
The black-clad Envoy said, "However, the upper limit for the Purple Firmament Immortal Pool is the Great Luo Immortal; those exceeding this Rank will not be able to enter.
As for below, there are no requirements; even if you are a Void Immortal who has just achieved Ascension, as long as you can obtain a token, you can enter the Immortal Pool."
Mu Yuntian and Zhao Wuxiang asked a few more questions and completely understood the principle behind the opening of the Purple Firmament Immortal Pool.
That is, in three days, whoever can bring a token to the Purple Firmament Immortal Pool will be the ultimate victor.
At the same time, it also gave the Five Great Sects some Face, allowing their Immortal King Rank powerhouses to protect their own Disciples, but absolutely forbidding them from seizing tokens from others.
"Alright, the tokens have been delivered; I will take my leave now, as I still need to visit the other Sects."
The black-clad Envoy bid farewell to the two; his purpose for coming this time was not only the Tianyan Sect but also several small Sects in the vicinity, to deliver the tokens and convey the Immortal King's decree.
Mu Yuntian politely saw him off, then returned to the room with Zhao Wuxiang.
"Sect Leader, why do I feel like something is not quite right? When did the Purple Firmament Immortal King's Mansion become so generous as to open the Purple Firmament Immortal Pool to the public?"
Zhao Wuxiang was full of doubts; over the years, he had gained some understanding of the Purple Firmament Immortal King's style of doing things, and he had always been very strict about Cultivation resources, so today's events were somewhat unusual.
"I don't think there's anything wrong with it."
Mu Yuntian said, "Didn't Tianjizi say that the entire Lower Heaven Region will Face a tribulation? At this time, as the Lord of Zixiao Heaven, his decision to open the Purple Firmament Immortal Pool to help young Disciples improve their strength is also a way to cope with the tribulation, so it's nothing significant."
There are Five Great Sects in Zixiao Heaven, but Tianji Mountain Manor is not among them.
More precisely, Tianji Mountain Manor holds a somewhat transcendent position; although it is located in Zixiao Heaven, it also has a significant influence on several other Heaven Regions.
Tianjizi, as the head of the family, is even more proficient in the Dao of Heavenly Secrets and is often able to peer into heavenly mysteries; even the Lords of various Heaven Regions hold him in great respect.
It was precisely because of this that Mu Yuntian had no suspicions about this matter.
Zhao Wuxiang still couldn't quite believe it: "But Tianjizi sent out the message three days ago; it seems a bit off that Zixiao Heaven is only opening the Purple Firmament Immortal Pool now, in terms of timing."
Mu Yuntian smiled slightly: "There's nothing wrong with that; after all, the Purple Firmament Immortal Pool is an important Cultivation resource of the Immortal King's Mansion, and one of their trump cards; it's impossible for them not to feel the pinch when taking it out.
So the Purple Firmament Immortal King must have deliberated repeatedly, perhaps even discussed it countless times with Zi Du Xian Wang, before making this decision."
Hearing him say that, although Zhao Wuxiang still felt something was off, he couldn't find a reason to refute it.
Mu Yuntian said, "No matter what, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and we must seize the time to Cultivate the young Disciples of my Tianyan Sect."
Zhao Wuxiang said, "Mu Lanzhi's Cultivation has greatly improved after this period of tempering, reaching the Great Supreme Immortal Peak; this is a perfect opportunity for her to step into the Great Luo Immortal Rank."
Mu Yuntian nodded, "Zhao Ya is also good; although her Cultivation is that of a Great Spirit Immortal, she is young and worthy of the Sect's重点培养, and she will have one of the tokens."
Zhao Wuxiang, however, shook his head: "That's not appropriate; Zhao Ya's Cultivation is too low, and she would feel undeserving; it's better to leave it for a more outstanding Disciple."
"Alright then, we'll save a suitable opportunity for Zhao Ya in the future."
The two quickly finalized the four slots for using the tokens, and Zhao Wuxiang said, "The Purple Firmament Immortal King's distribution of a hundred tokens this time is bound to stir up a bloody storm in Zixiao Heaven.
It's not safe for just four Disciples to go alone; I should take them."
"No, you're still underestimating the influence of the tokens."
Mu Yuntian waved his hand, "I will go personally this time; there can be no mishaps."
After finalizing the personnel and itinerary, two hours later, Mu Lanzhi and the three other selected Disciples had all arrived.
Although Zhao Ya did not have a slot, the little girl had always been inseparable from Mu Lanzhi, so Mu Yuntian took her along as well, and they set off together for Purple Firmament Immortal City.
