Cultivation: Fortune by Lots

Chapter 1035: Chapter 368: Southern Kingdom’s Finest

Currently in the Dragon Tiger Mountain’s Celestial Master Mansion, Yao Yuan is confronting the Heavenly Moat Tribulation between the Seventh and Eighth Heavenly Layer, having been in seclusion for some time.

Similarly, another person well-acquainted with Yuan Mobai and Lei Jun, Elder Liu Xiao, is facing the Heavenly Moat Tribulation between the Sixth and Seventh Heavenly Layer, also having been in seclusion for a while.

Yao Yuan’s disciple, Ke Sicheng, was once known along with Lin Shan, Li Xuan, and others as a true inheritor of the Celestial Master Mansion, but his cultivation was delayed due to injuries in his early years.

However, after years of accumulation, he gradually gained some confidence and, although he has not yet started his seclusion, he is preparing to attempt the Heavenly Moat Tribulation Magic Artifact between the Sixth and Seventh Heavenly Layer.

In this regard, Lei Jun and Luo Haoran naturally hope everyone’s success.

However, in the matter of tribulation crossing, others cannot assist, and it relies entirely on the cultivator themselves.

This year’s New Year’s Grand Ceremony was presided over by Lei Jun.

During the ceremony, Qin Caiwei was officially appointed as an elder and took charge of the Medicinal Garden after the grand ceremony.

In this position, she no longer personally handles everything in the garden, instead, she arranges and instructs other disciples in the mansion.

For her, it’s a new experience.

Qin Caiwei doesn’t resist this change and, although she still often works in the field herself, she directs the younger disciples in an orderly fashion.

After the grand ceremony in previous years, Lei Jun began to enter the Altar of Wanfa Sect more frequently.

Within the altar, two Heavenly Palace Chapter Tablets are preserved.

Under the influence of the Heavenly Palace Chapter Tablet, Lei Jun seems to constantly ascend to a lofty place, gazing anew at the vast Star River.

However, accompanying him this time are the Biliu Pearl and the Nine Springs Ascending Spirit Jue.

In the current environment, Lei Jun continues to warm and nurture the Biliu Pearl and the Nine Springs Ascending Spirit Jue.

The Biliu Pearl, like flowing water, becomes even more graceful.

The Nine Springs Ascending Spirit Jue, however, seems suppressed.

But Lei Jun is not worried.

After suppression comes the moment when it flows like the Netherworld with dual brilliance ascending in spirit.

At present, he is cautious, continuing minor adjustments to ensure nothing goes wrong at the final crucial moment.

Even though he hasn’t truly started using the ritual instrument, just being in this environment, Lei Jun feels his thoughts and mind becoming livelier with more vitality.

After some contemplation, he took out some items.

Heavenly River Star Sand and Ganges River Sand.

Both have distinct granules, each tiny grain containing a wondrous mana and unique artistic conception.

And as Lei Jun rises to the celestial vault through the Heavenly Palace Chapter Tablet, a massive flow of Tao containment symbols circulates around, making the tiny, numerous different grains of sand appear even clearer before him.

Lei Jun gestures with his hand.

His Great Celestial Mirror descends from above the high heavens.

After warming it for a period, Lei Jun illuminates the many grains of sand with the brilliance of the Great Celestial Mirror.

Soon, he selects a grain of sand to his front, then delicately carves it.

A great number of symbols and Dharma essence infuse it, transforming into formations and engraved on the tiny grains of sand.

The already lively spiritual energy of the sand grains becomes even more spirited at this moment.

But Lei Jun is not satisfied with what he sees and shakes his head slightly instead.

"Still lacking some materials." He looks at the numerous grains of sand and then at his Great Celestial Mirror, understanding in his heart.

Lei Jun gently waves his hand, and the Great Celestial Mirror ascends again, hanging above the high heavens.

The numerous grains of sand are then collected by him.

Winter comes and goes, with spring returning.

There is new movement from the Southern Wilderness.

However, it is not yet the dire news of the Earth Sea portal breaking open or a Great Demon causing chaos.

Instead, it is the Holy Land of Gepo Mountain, the sacred site of the Divine Dance lineage of the Witchcraft Sect in the Southern Wilderness, finally about to have a new Holy Master ascend.

"The lineage of Gepo Mountain finally regains some primordial qi." Lei Jun and his fellow disciple Chu Kun talk about this matter, and both feel a sense of emotional resonance.

Being from the Celestial Master Mansion themselves, having personally experienced their own sect’s rise from a low point to rejuvenation, they empathize with Gepo Mountain’s plight.

Chu Kun: "Eventually, hearing Taoist Friend takes the position of Holy Master of Gepo Mountain after all."

Lei Jun nods lightly: "After Li Tianqing, Wen Xi is the most outstanding Great Witch of this generation in Gepo Mountain, having successfully reached the Eighth Heavenly Layer in the Divine Dance lineage of the Witchcraft Sect."

Back when he took the position of Celestial Master, he had once met Wen Xi, who represented Gepo Mountain in offering congratulations, though without public observation.

"Considering the cultivation realm, Gepo Mountain has elders above him, but looking at all aspects comprehensively, Wen Xi taking charge of Gepo Mountain is unsurprising." Lei Jun remarked.

Chu Kun laughed: "When he represented Gepo Mountain to come to Dragon Tiger Mountain to congratulate you, senior brother, the fact that it succeeded already represented his steady grasp over the affairs of Gepo Mountain’s lineage, at least more than half of it."

Lei Jun: "Gepo Mountain still faces many issues."

Upon hearing this, Chu Kun’s smile faded, and his demeanor turned serious: "There are both external enemies and traitors."

In the past, Gepo Mountain, the holy site of the Divine Dance lineage, was one of the relatively stable holy lands in the Southern Wilderness.

But it had encountered troubles continuously before.

When Wei Ancheng, the last Sect Leader of the Blood River Sect, and Yang Yuqi, a remnant of the Former Sui Shengkang King, were active in the Southern Wilderness, Gepo Mountain had an elder, Yuan Shanji, who caused internal conflict.

Afterwards, with Wei Ancheng and Yang Yuqi’s defeat, Yuan Shanji disappeared as well.

All these years, Gepo Mountain has been continuously pursuing Yuan Shanji and his followers.

Subsequently, Yang Yuqi and Wei Ancheng perished one after another, but Yuan Shanji has never been brought to justice.

His whereabouts remain unknown, and it’s always been a significant concern for Gepo Mountain.

Yet compared to another person, Yuan Shanji’s issue seems minor.

Li Tianqing.

This person’s problem is even more troublesome.

Until today, looking back, the relationship between Li Tianqing and the Earth Sea Jiuli is likely not as the outside world initially speculated.
