Chapter 562: New Saint of the Calamity, Unknown Karma

Chapter 562: New Saint of the Calamity, Unknown Karma

For the Nether Clan, Han Jue originally wanted to keep them in the dojo all the time, occasionally sending them out to execute missions.

But as time passed, he found that the situation was somewhat unfavorable.

Within the Nether Clan, an attitude of passive cultivation began to appear.

Without mortal enemies or goals, the constant, boring cultivation caused many Youluo and Disciples to slack off, or even give up on themselves.

This situation also existed among the Personal Disciples, such as the Black Hell Chicken, Chaos Heavenly Dog, Zhou Mingyue, and so on.

Disciples who were completely unslack were rare. Throughout the entire Hidden Sect, aside from Han Jue, only Li Yao constantly secluded herself in cultivation, while the others would occasionally stop cultivating to relax.

Han Jue got up and left, pondering along the way.

Was he really right?

Not everyone eagerly pursued cultivation.

In terms of vision, the other Disciples were inferior to Han Jue. From their perspective, the Hidden Sect was already invincible, and with Han Jue above them, cultivation was not that important.

Besides, if one didn't like cultivation, who could endure hardships in cultivation all the time?

Just like studying in his past life, everyone knew that studying was good and could change one's destiny, but how many people truly persisted in studying?

Upon returning to the Daoist temple, Han Jue was still pondering this question.

Ten years later, all the Disciples awoke from their state of enlightenment.

Han Jue's voice suddenly resounded through the entire Hidden Sect:

"The Immortal Realm pursues the saint position, and our Hidden Sect naturally must pursue it as well. The Heavenly Dao has nine Heavenly Dao Saint seats, but our Hidden Sect has more than nine. If you have ambition, Cultivate well. As long as you reach the Perfected Quasi-Saint Realm, I have a way to help you become a Saint. How many Saints the Hidden Sect will have depends entirely on your efforts!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the entire Hidden Sect was in an uproar.

Saints!

All one million Disciples became excited.

If other Saints had said this, they might have sneezed at it with disdain, but coming from Han Jue, they believed it.

For a time, the Hidden Sect was abuzz, with everyone discussing this matter, and many Disciples directly began seclusion.

Han Jue secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

This wave of motivation was only temporary; after a period of time, their passion would inevitably decline.

However, that was a matter for the future.

…

Spring passed and autumn came.

A thousand years flashed by in an instant.

Perhaps because nothing happened, Han Jue felt that this thousand years was unprecedentedly fast, as if he had dreamt a blurry dream.

Within the Hundred Peaks Immortal River, there were neither winds nor waves, not even any conflicts.

Although the Immortal Realm was locked in endless strife, it did not spread to the Hundred Peaks Immortal River. Most Hidden Sect Disciples could feel the tranquility of the years.

Why most?

Simply because there were still quite a few Disciples who wanted to leave; they felt they were already strong enough, or unable to advance another step, so they no longer wanted to Cultivate.

On this day.

Han Jue summoned Han Duotian and asked him to screen the Named Disciples whose cultivation could no longer grow and send them to the Celestial Clan.

Han Jue originally wanted to support the Heavenly Court, but felt it was unnecessary.

The Heavenly Emperor had already established a new Heavenly Court, what use was the old Heavenly Court?

If he supported the Heavenly Court and the Celestial Clan, and these two factions started fighting again, wouldn't that be an internal strife among the Three Pure Ones?

A few days later, five thousand Named Disciples departed; one-third were Immortal Emperors, and the rest were all Grand Unity Golden Immortals.

Han Jue sent a Dream Message to Fang Liang and Immortal God Ji, pulling them both into the dreamscape at the same time.

The dreamscape was a small forest near the Yuqing Sacred Sect. Upon seeing Han Jue, the two immediately knelt and bowed in salute.

Han Jue spoke: "From now on, Fang Liang will be the Vice Clan Chief of the Celestial Clan. The two of you shall support each other, exclusively control the Celestial Clan, and contend for Heavenly Dao fortune."

Hearing this, Fang Liang was stunned. He had long guessed that the Hidden Sect was supporting Immortal God Ji, but since Immortal God Ji hadn't stated it, he didn't dare to be certain.

Now hearing Han Jue's words, his heart was still very complicated.

Why not support my Heavenly Court?

Once this thought popped up, it could not be dismissed.

Immortal God Ji laughed readily: "Of course, the burden on my shoulders can finally become lighter."

Han Jue calmly said: "Fang Liang, do not be bound by the Heavenly Court. The former Heavenly Emperor is still alive and has also established a new Heavenly Court. Be careful not to be implicated. A new era requires new faces, and the Clan Chief of the Celestial Clan is not your ultimate destination. I have higher expectations for you; this is merely a stepping stone for your tempering, do not let me down."

Hearing this, Immortal God Ji and Fang Liang froze.

"Higher expectations?"

"Could it be Saints?"

Their heartbeats accelerated. They already knew that Han Jue was a Saint, and not an ordinary Heavenly Dao Saint.

Han Jue had his own method to Attain the Dao!

Immortal God Ji's eyes burned with passion, and he asked: "Is it a Saint?"

Han Jue said: "The Heavenly Dao is not the entirety in my eyes. I hope you can keep up with my pace. Do you know where the previous generation of Saints went?"

The two shook their heads, showing looks of curiosity.

Han Jue directly waved his sleeve, dissolving the dreamscape.

The rest was left for the two of them to reconcile on their own.

Han Jue continued to Cultivate. He was currently only at the Middle Stage of the Grand Unity Golden Immortal Realm, still far from a Free and Unfettered Saint, let alone a Great Dao Saint.

A long and arduous road lies ahead!

Let's set a small target first: reach the Realm of a Great Dao Saint before the arrival of the next calamity!

…

Three hundred years later.

"I, Qiu Xilai, will lecture on the Thirty-Third Heaven a thousand years later. This lecture will select Saint candidates to succeed my saint position in the future!"

Qiu Xilai's voice resounded through the Myriad Heavens and Myriad Realms, causing an uproar among all living beings.

saint position!

This time was different from the past; Qiu Xilai explicitly stated he was abdicating his position!

Han Jue, who was cultivating, opened his eyes with a bizarre expression.

Qiu Xilai wanted to abdicate?

He was only at the Late Stage of the Heavenly Dao Saint, not even at Perfection, how could he abdicate?

Han Jue felt that this fellow was trying to scam people again.

He suddenly had a bold idea.

"I want to know who the Heavenly Dao Saints will be when the next calamity begins."

[Requires deducting 10 billion years of lifespan, do you wish to continue]

Continue!

Nine figures appeared in Han Jue's mind.

Qiu Xilai, Li Muyi, Antarctic Celestial Venerable, Li Daokong, Yi Tian, Huang Zuntian, Fu Xi Tian, Great Scattered Heaven, Jin Shen, and two other unknown Saints.

Han Jue's eyes presented their information:

[Great Scattered Heaven: Heavenly Dao Saint, Boundless Great Emperor]

[Jin Shen: Heavenly Dao Saint, Ancient Calamity Lord]

Han Jue's expression was bizarre.

Sect Master Tianjue and Great Emperor Xiao were gone; it was unknown whether they had transcended or fallen, and Li Muyi had actually returned to the Heavenly Dao Saint seat.

Li Daokong becoming a Saint was nothing surprising. Although Yi Tian became a Saint quickly, it was considered normal since he was the child of the heavenly dao.

Huang Zuntian…

Han Jue could only say two words.

Awesome!

Han Jue had always been laissez-faire towards Huang Zuntian. Huang Zuntian's achievements today were entirely due to his own efforts.

"Even Yi Tian has become a Saint, why has that brat Han Tuo fallen behind?"

Han Jue thought silently, and continued to deduce: "I want to know what cultivation Han Tuo will have when the next calamity begins?"

[Involves self Karma and unknown Karma, cannot deduce]

Han Jue frowned.

What was the unknown Karma?

It seemed he would need to pay more attention to Han Tuo in the future.

Han Jue immediately cast his gaze outward, and was surprised to find that Han Tuo and Yi Tian had already left the overseas regions, arriving at the central area of the Immortal Realm, cultivating in a mysterious place filled with ancient Restrictions.

This place was piled with the severed limbs of mighty figures from the previous calamity, all thrown down by Great Emperor Xiao, and it was unknown who had piled them here.
