Chu Mo couldn't help but laugh, saying, "You make it sound like I'm not very easy to get along with."
The Elixir Sect's Sect Leader also couldn't help but smile and nod, "Young Master Chu, the image you've always presented to the world is just like that!"
Over there, Li Zhongyuan gave a wry smile, "More like a disaster star, causing unrest wherever he goes."
Chu Mo said with a look of grievance, "Can I really be blamed for that?"
Li Zhongyuan shook his head, "Indeed, Young Master Chu can't be blamed. In fact, the Elixir Sect's Sect Leader is quite right. Young Master Chu is really quite easy to get along with, provided that, don't provoke him."
Yang Xuan said indifferently from the side, "So many people dare to provoke Young Master Chu only because they believe he's not as strong as the legends suggest. And then, there are so many mysteries surrounding him, whether it's small fry or alligators... they all want to take a bite and taste. The result... all of them shattered their teeth."
The Elixir Sect's Sect Leader said, "People's hearts are never satisfied, like a snake trying to swallow an elephant, and when they can't swallow it, they inevitably choke to death."
Li Zhongyuan shook his head and sighed, wasn't Elder Qiu from the Illusion Sect the perfect example of a heart unsatisfied, like a snake trying to swallow an elephant? In the end, not to mention an elephant... he couldn't even swallow a crane! He was directly killed by Qin Shi, the princess from the Heavenly Realm.
Speaking of which, in the Heavenly Realm's Illusion Sect, there are still some people jumping around to this day, trying to put pressure on the Illusion Sect in the Immortal Realm, targeting Chu Mo. But all of them were pushed back by Li Zhongyuan.
After all, Li Zhongyuan is the master of this Illusion Sect!
No matter how formidable the people from the Heavenly Realm might be, they couldn't control things in the Immortal Realm.
Nevertheless, Li Zhongyuan still warned Chu Mo, "The Heavenly Realm is not very peaceful; after ascending to the Heavenly Realm, you must be extra cautious. I might also ascend to the Heavenly Realm, but once there, ah..."
Li Zhongyuan didn't continue, but everyone seated understood what he meant. He was quite candid in expressing this despondent possibility in front of a group of Immortal Realm powerhouses, also resonating with them.
"In the Immortal Realm, we might be somebody, but after arriving in the Heavenly Realm... everything starts from scratch again. That's fundamentally why so many immortals of the Immortal Realm are reluctant to ascend."
"Yeah, who would want to go there and be subject to the whims of others after being used to being a person of importance?"
"It's a shame that the restrictions of the Immortal Realm... prevent one from cultivating to higher levels."
"Sect Leader Li should be better off. After all, as the leader of the Illusion Sect, even if you go to the Heavenly Realm, you will definitely be treated with respect," Yang Xuan added.
Li Zhongyuan sighed and said with a bitter smile, "Receiving respect won't be a problem, but everything else... is just so-so. As for having a say in matters, there won't be much."
Chu Mo nodded and laughed, "If everyone is unhappy in the Heavenly Realm, you might as well come to Piaomiao Palace."
As soon as these words were spoken, the room instantly quieted down. Many people looked at Chu Mo with surprised faces.
The Elixir Sect's Sect Leader chuckled, "Having gone to the Heavenly Realm, I wouldn't dare go to Piaomiao Palace."
Everyone couldn't help but laugh, knowing that the Elixir Sect is a branch of Lingdan Hall. If he directly joined Piaomiao Palace after ascending to the Heavenly Realm, Lingdan Hall would probably go crazy. Any high-level member of the Elixir Sect could be considered a genius in alchemy. The loss of even one would be painful for Lingdan Hall. Not to mention someone of the Elixir Sect's Sect Leader's status and position.
Yang Xuan then looked at Chu Mo and asked, "Is the young master planning to build Piaomiao Palace all the way to the Heavenly Realm?"
"Is it not possible?" Chu Mo countered.
"It's not that it isn't possible…" Yang Xuan said, "The Heavenly Realm differs from the Immortal Realm and the Spirit Realm. Establishing a power in the Heavenly Realm isn't too difficult, but developing it… is probably not so easy."
Yang Xuan spoke ambiguously, yet everyone understood his meaning. Putting aside the multitude of enemies Chu Mo had in the Heavenly Realm, the crux of the matter was that these enemies were all exceptionally powerful!
Whether it be the Spirit Realm or the Immortal Realm, cultivation ultimately had its limits. With Chu Mo's terrifying combat strength, he truly wouldn't fear any contender. However, in the Heavenly Realm, everything would change. Chu Mo's ascension to the Heavenly Realm placed him merely at the cultivation of a Great Luo Golden Immortal.
In the Heavenly Realm, Heavenly Immortals and True Immortals were innumerable, and many hidden powerhouses existed at the Emperor Realm.
Should a true Emperor Realm powerhouse strike at Chu Mo, it would spell utter disaster.
At this time, the Sect Leader of the Elixir Sect said, "You could build your sect not far from Lingdan Hall."
The influential figures present all exchanged glances, their looks somewhat playful.
The Sect Leader of the Elixir Sect gave a faint smile, "You needn't look at me like that. I believe Young Master Chu understands what I mean, and I have no intention of laying a trap for him."
Chu Mo glanced at the Sect Leader of the Elixir Sect, who spoke indifferently, "I am a person of Miss Liuyun."
Chu Mo pulled at the corner of his mouth, smiling, but said no more.
At this point, one of the great figures of the Immortal Realm stood up and said to Chu Mo, "Does Young Master Chu truly intend to carve out a path in the Heavenly Realm?"
Chu Mo nodded, "I may not stay long with the sect, but this sect will indeed establish its footing in the Heavenly Realm."
"Then… does Young Master Chu truly believe that after we ascend to the Heavenly Realm we can join the Piaomiao Palace?" This great immortal of the Immortal Realm, a peak cultivator nearing ascension, looked seriously at Chu Mo.
Chu Mo smiled, "If everyone is willing, I would naturally welcome you. After all, we are all cultivators who have stepped out from the Immortal Realm. Just keep in mind that, at that time, you may not hold the positions you hold today."
"That's not important. After arriving in the Heavenly Realm, even figures like Sect Leader Li can't guarantee the same status as today; what more could we ask for?" This Immortal Realm powerhouse spoke solemnly. "Truth be told, the majority of cultivators in the Heavenly Realm look down upon those of us who ascended from the Immortal Realm. Heh... it's the same attitude we have towards those who ascended from the Spirit Realm. But such attitudes need to change."
"Yes, it's time for a change. In the past, we fought on our own, ascending to the Heavenly Realm to find our own acquaintances. It always ended up as trifling skirmishes, never forming any significant scale. In the end, the outcomes were all too similar." Another Immortal Realm powerhouse sighed, "We simply became lost in the crowd."
"To be beneath some minor Heavenly Realm family's cultivator, allowing them to lord over us—those are days I truly don't wish to relive."
The speakers were all family heads or sect leaders from families and sects ranked just below the Illusion Sect, Mystic Sect, and the Elixir Sect. When discussing this matter, they all had their own complaints, but they began to seriously consider Chu Mo's proposal. This left Yang Xuan, Li Zhongyuan, and the Sect Leader of the Elixir Sect quite surprised.
In the end, it was a female family head named Huo Yu who voiced what others were thinking. Huo Yu looked to be in her thirties, with a pretty and capable appearance. While there were many female cultivators in the Immortal Realm, female family heads were extremely rare, a testament to her abilities.
Huo Yu spoke with a smile, "Sect Leader Yang, Sect Leader Li and Sect Leader of the Elixir Sect, you all have foundations in the Heavenly Realm, unlike us. After you ascend to the Heavenly Realm, even if you lose your original influence, you will still have a sizeable force to rely on. But we have no such conditions—we who have power and prestige in the Immortal Realm, who could summon the wind and call the rain, but upon reaching the Heavenly Realm… find ourselves completely in the dark, utterly clueless."
