TO ACHIEVE IMMORTALITY, I CULTIVATE USING QI LUCK

Chapter 1457: Chapter 569 Replace the Old with the New_2 Chapter 1457: Chapter 569 Replace the Old with the New_2 At this moment, facing the united front of Taiping Dao and Jiuzhou Immortal Gate, Changqing Immortal Sect had no substantial advantage, both sides were merely equal.

The potential for conflict rose, unpredictability loomed large, and the outcome was difficult to foresee.

With self-development advantages and substantial untapped potential compared to the other two, Song Xiren was the least willing to initiate war and the most eager to maintain the current peace and stability.

Because the longer time dragged on, the more advantageous the situation became for him.

Occupying two-thirds of the Changqing Domain, if only time was consumed, Changqing Immortal Sect had no fear of the other two families.

Under such circumstances, even if the departure of Qing Guanzi and others was discovered, and Taiping Dao’s main forces were away, leaving their gates empty, Changqing Immortal Sect would not attack Mi Yun Mountain.

Because it would be meaningless.

To the outside world, the core of Taiping Dao was Qing Guanzi, Yi Dancheng, and Che Shidao.

Originally owning nothing, they came to the Southern Domain and within a poverty-stricken situation, it took only seven hundred years to establish Taiping Dao as it is now.

Since the three of them, in such circumstances, started from scratch and achieved what they have now.

Seven hundred years have passed, and their strength and foundation have further advanced; building another Taiping Dao would naturally not be difficult.

As long as these three did not die, destroying a single Taiping Dao and breaching Mi Yun Mountain meant nothing.

They could easily establish it again at any moment.

Not to mention, even without these three individuals, the present Taiping Dao and Mi Yun Mountain were safeguarded by the Earth Immortal formation, with five True Immortals and thousands of disciples supporting them.

With these foundations, even when facing the full onslaught of Changqing Immortal Sect, they could rely on the formation to hold out for several months, providing enough time for Qing Guanzi and the others to return for backup.

Once these three returned, it was naturally impossible for Changqing Immortal Sect to have any chance of conquering the Southern Domain.

Thus, no matter how one calculated, attacking Taiping Dao at this time was an arduous task that was unappreciated and endlessly problematic.

Unless Song Xiren had gone mad, he would not possibly instigate conflict with Taiping Dao.

The same logic applied to Jiuzhou Immortal Gate.

Jiuzhou Immortal Gate wouldn’t initiate hostility with Taiping Dao at this time either.

Not long ago, they even sent significant gifts to Che Shidao to resolve misunderstandings.

Neither Changqing nor Jiuzhou wished for chaos, thus Taiping Dao naturally had no worries.

With Taiping Dao at ease, Lu Yuan naturally had no concerns and could enjoy his leisurely days.

However, although this main body could indulge in leisure, acting as a hands-off manager,

Jade Brocade, burdened with all affairs, was not having such an easy time.

As the main battle force comprised three avatars had gone out, and even though outsiders were unaware, or even if they became aware, they would not act against Taiping Dao,

What outsiders thought was their concern.

But as the School Leader, Jade Brocade could not think this way.

During this most vulnerable time for Taiping Dao, he must devise every possible means to ensure that nothing went amiss internally.

Therefore, after returning and pondering thoroughly, Jade Brocade issued another edict:

That was to continue expanding the discipleship.

On top of the existing base, another four thousand disciples were to be recruited.

The number of Taiping Dao’s disciples would then be expanded to over twelve thousand in one fell swoop.

This grand move immediately staggered the outside world.

One must realize that the prior number of Taiping Dao’s disciples was only four thousand.

But not long ago, the order was given to recruit another four thousand disciples, and the mere selection of qualified candidates was a challenging task.

With Taiping Dao’s recruitment standards, only those with superior qualifications were allowed entry.

Even though Taiping Dao possessed control over the populous Southern Domain of over a billion,

Persons with superior qualifications were also one in a million.

To select those with superior qualifications from over a billion mortals, screening everyone might produce at most a couple thousand candidates.

Among them, if you exclude those of advanced age, bad temperament, or other defects, the number of disciples that could be recruited would be even less.

Perhaps only five or six hundred.

Taiping Dao managed to gather four thousand disciples over seven hundred years, selecting qualified candidates year after year to accumulate such numbers.

Now, gathering four thousand qualified disciples in a short amount of time was no easy feat.

Even at Taiping Dao’s current size and pace, it would take about a hundred years.

Of course, if standards were lowered and superior qualifications were not strictly required, it would not take a hundred years but possibly just one or two to gather these people.

However, such disciples had virtually no hope of becoming immortal, even attaining the Five Qi Towards Primordial would be difficult.

To send them to the battlefield would hardly consume a few of the enemy’s Dao Law spells.

Even Lu Yuan’s arrival would be useless.

Lowering the standards was out of the question, but it also presented a problem to gather so many people at once.

Taiping Dao governed over seven nations with vast territories, just maintaining local security required at least fifteen hundred disciples.

If they were to staff the headquarters of the sect and the six subsidiary institutes fully, it would need four thousand disciples.

Yes, that’s four thousand.

Previously, to remain secure and reduce its threat level, avoiding the vigilance of outsiders, Taiping Dao only fulfilled basic manpower needs without further expanding its disciple count.

They maintained around four thousand disciples, feigning weakness strategically to confuse outsiders.

However, now, with Lu Yuan and several avatars successively becoming Earth Immortals, and Jin Qingyue and Jade Brocade rapidly catching up,

Not much time remained before Taiping Dao would launch the war to unify the Changqing Domain.

The original disciples were not reliable and could not be heavily relied upon.

Now, recruiting new disciples and training them from the ground up would also take around four or five hundred years.
