134: Chapter 134 Discussing the Way and Distributing Treasures
The next morning, as the rosy clouds surged across the horizon, Emperor Xuan and the other immortals arrived one after another.
Dragon Kun and Rongxiao were the last to arrive. As the only other Heavenly Immortals currently on the Continent of Desolation, these two giant beasts were the only ones capable of sharing a small portion of Lu Hu's burden.
They had shed their former ferocity, taking on the appearance of ordinary living beings, and now radiated the bustling aura of the mortal world.
Having been trapped in the Cold Sea for a thousand years since birth, they had gained their freedom only after the wicked dragon died. They had moved out of the Cold Sea overnight to travel the mortal realm, becoming enamored with the human world.
They had cast cultivation to the back of their minds. If not for Lu Hu's invitation, they would still be immersed in the novel sights of the mortal realm, having completely forgotten that the Continent of Desolation was still in a perilous situation.
"Sigh!" Lu Hu sighed inwardly but didn't say much; after all, if the demons were to descend, none of them would be able to escape.
On the day of the sermon, several immortals lined up on both sides, their robes fluttering and immortal light swirling around them. Lu Hu sat in the main seat. Instead of teaching basic cultivation methods, he shared his unique insights into the profound principles of the Dao and the exquisite techniques for utilizing divine abilities one by one.
These insights were all formed by Lu Hu, combining the cultivation techniques rewarded by the system with the experience he had accumulated after mastering his various constitutions.
Emperor Xuan and the others listened with rapt attention. At times, they would furrow their brows as if contemplating obscure Dao rhythms; at other times, their eyes would suddenly brighten with sudden enlightenment, and the immortal power around their bodies would surge and fluctuate accordingly.
Many immortals who had been stuck at bottlenecks in their cultivation for hundreds of years found that in the instant they listened to the sermon, their cultivation barriers loosened quietly, like solid ice meeting a warm sun.
When the sermon ended, Lu Hu felt full of relief. The comprehension of immortals was far superior to that of ordinary beings, so there was naturally no risk of them failing to understand no matter how he explained it. This spared him from a spike in blood pressure.
As he scanned the immortals, Lu Hu suddenly noticed a problem: more than half of them did not possess a single decent magic treasure. This was especially true for Dragon Kun and Rongxiao; as Heavenly Immortals, their immortal weapons were actually crafted from their own bodily bones. While their power was decent, it also indirectly reflected that these two fellows were truly poor.
"I have several immortal plants in my possession whose fruits and branches can be used to refine immortal weapons. Line up and register; once they ripen, I will bestow them upon you in order."
"Fellow Daoist Lu Hu, you are truly righteous!" Emperor Xuan was the first to stand up, bowing deeply to Lu Hu, his voice ringing out like a bell: "In the future, if the demons from the upper realm descend, all the subjects of my Xuan Kingdom will be ready to obey your command. We will go through fire and water without hesitation!"
"Indeed, I feel the same!"
"Me too!"
Rongxiao and the other immortals all expressed their stance.
Lu Hu was very satisfied and took out the green lotus seed to invite the immortals present to taste it.
During this discussion of the Dao, Lu Hu not only passed down several divine abilities but also made promises regarding immortal weapons. The immortals were conquered by his magnanimity and spirit, and they all bowed and recognized Lu Hu as their master. From then on, Lu Hu, with his absolute strength and broad-mindedness, completely dominated the Continent of Desolation.
After tasting the lotus, the immortals bid farewell and left, returning to their respective territories to reorganize their forces, drill their subordinates, and cultivate diligently in preparation for the unknown demonic calamity.
Lu Hu did the same; he took out all his immortal-grade resources, except for the five core immortal plants.
All sorts of heavenly treasures radiated with qi, and he did not skimp on anything that could assist in cultivation, distributing everything to his subordinates.
Nourished by the massive amount of resources and doubly blessed by the treasure land of Tianduan Mountain, in just a few short months, the spirit beasts of Tianduan Mountain sprang up like bamboo shoots after a spring rain, one after another, and their strength began to soar at an astonishing speed.
At the same time, spirit beasts were advancing to the ranks of Grandmaster, and their overall strength increased several-fold, accumulating a foundation for a crisis that might or might not come.
