"What?"

"Cultivators must also adhere to the dynasty's rules, what kind of rule is this! Are mortals to govern cultivators?"

Several people from the Ten Thousand Immortals Sect shook their heads immediately upon hearing this.

Cao Zhen looked at their reactions and chuckled softly, saying, "Why not? Not only that, but within the Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty, everyone is equal, whether they are nobles or ordinary civilians, or even cultivators. If a cultivator violates the laws of the dynasty, they must also endure punishment."

"Impossible!"

"Punish cultivators? To have those mortals punish cultivators? This is simply a joke!"

"Why should cultivators face mortals' punishment?" Bi Qing looked at Cao Zhen and asked in return, "Are you saying that even if someone from your Hundred Peaks Sect violated the so-called rules of the Guardian Immortal Dynasty, they would also face punishment?"

"Of course, I said before, within the Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty, everyone must abide by its rules, no one can defy them. The reason for these rules is because of the Grand Preceptor! Because of just one person, the entire dynasty is suppressed." Cao Zhen raised his hand and pointed into the void at the disappearing figure of the Grand Preceptor, saying, "The person you see is the Grand Preceptor of the Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty."

"He is the Grand Preceptor?"

"He..."

Upon hearing this, everyone was at a loss for words.

After a while, the old woman slowly opened her mouth and said, "He alone is truly enough to suppress this place. Only someone of his caliber could establish such rules of equality between mortals and cultivators."

"But, Uncle Master, if he is such a charismatic figure, why would he want to help the Guardian Immortal Dynasty, and help the mortals?" Bi Qing still couldn't understand.

"Why not help the mortals?" Cao Zhen looked at Bi Qing in front of him, speaking in an educating tone, "Don't forget, all of you, every one of you, were once mortals, you were not born as cultivators."

"You..." Bi Qing was left speechless once again and suddenly, as if thinking of something, she said, "So what? Even if the Grand Preceptor of the Guardian Immortal Dynasty is a True Immortal, does he necessarily have to help your Hundred Peaks Sect? Would he offend a major sect for the sake of your Hundred Peaks Sect?"

"Why wouldn't he?" Cao Zhen withdrew his gaze from the distant horizon and looked at the six from the All-encompassing Sect in front of him, "I have said, everyone within the Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty must accept its rules.

And the Death River Sect is no exception. They want to seize the mountain gate of our Hundred Peaks Sect, which violates the rules of the Guardian Immortal Dynasty, so the Grand Preceptor will naturally take action."

Bi Qing still expressed disbelief, saying, "Just for this reason? Is it possible that if any random mortal in the Guardian Immortal Dynasty offended a major sect, the Grand Preceptor would also take action?"

"Naturally." Cao Zhen emphatically nodded, this was the charisma of the Grand Preceptor.

"Why does he do this?" Bi Qing shook her head, unable to understand.

Next to her, the old woman sighed deeply, face full of lamentation as she said, "This must be the reason he is able to become such an extraordinary figure."

In the crowd, the previously silent Beautiful Wife Yao Feng suddenly asked aloud, "Now that he has awakened, he can naturally suppress everything, after all, he is the only True Immortal in your Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty and the entire Eastern Wasteland.

But what about before he awakened? Before the arrival of the Minor Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth, he was presumably asleep, during that time, how did he ensure everyone adhered to his rules? Were there not those who wanted to unearth his burial site?"

As her words fell, Bi Qing and the others also realized.

"Yes, he's not part of any major sect, and even if he has disciples or even a sect obeying his commands, during the era shift, he could not suppress all cultivators alone."

"Exactly, I don't believe all the cultivators in your Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty willingly listened to him. There would certainly be many cultivators wanting to resist; if they united, they could even find the Grand Preceptor's burial site and excavate it to kill him!"

Cao Zhen nodded slightly at them and said, "You're right, many cultivators indeed wanted to kill the Grand Preceptor. However, although the Grand Preceptor was asleep, the Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty still had a State Preceptor."

As he spoke, Cao Zhen pointed to himself, saying, "And I am the State Preceptor of the Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty. With the Grand Preceptor absent, I was still enough to suppress everything. Now that the Grand Preceptor is awake, it's his turn to suppress everything."

All the people around immediately fell into silence.

The recent breakthrough was by the Grand Preceptor of the Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty, and Cao Zhen is the State Preceptor. Even if the Grand Preceptor wasn't like Cao Zhen described, actively helping sects or mortals in the Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty when difficulties arise,

still, if the State Preceptor's Immortal Sect had troubles, the Grand Preceptor would unquestionably take action.

Thus, would Cao Zhen still seek their help?

For a moment, everyone fell silent.

The old woman also fell silent for a moment before speaking again, "The Grand Preceptor you mentioned is indeed a rare extraordinary figure seen only once in ten thousand or a million years, yet after all, he has just broken through. Currently, he only has three Immortal Palaces.

The Death River Sect comes from the Central Continent, a great teaching; within their sect, there might be more than one True Immortal.

The Grand Preceptor alone may not be able to keep your Hundred Peaks Sect safe."

Cao Zhen's heart suddenly sank; what this old woman said was the truth. During his five or more years in the Central Continent, he had heard of many great teachings, and they indeed had more than just one True Immortal.
