Chapter 560 - Chapter 560: Chapter 552: Securing the Position as a Registered Disciple (2/2)

With no other choice, he could only draw his treasured sword to defend himself.

Bang!

This resistance was more a symbolic gesture than anything else. The Ink Blade easily cleaved it in two, and with undiminished momentum, it split the body of the Mo-named Immortal Master in half.

A pitiful Immortal Master met his untimely and inexplicable death.

At the very moment he was slain, the Immortal Ribbons on his body automatically flew to Qin Niu’s.

An overwhelmingly strong teleportation force spirited Qin Niu away.

When his vision returned to normal, Qin Niu found himself back in the garden he’d been in before.

Only this time, his location was within the connecting corridors in the middle of the garden.

Along with him, seven or eight other people were teleported there, each exuding an extraordinary aura. Some had three Immortal Ribbons on their bodies, while others had faint, multicolored halos around them.

Qin Niu was the most unique among them.

He bore three Immortal Ribbons as well as a multicolored halo.

Because he had successfully refined a strand of Immortal Qi.

When the others saw Qin Niu appear, not only did they show no hostility, but two or three even gave him a friendly smile and nodded slightly.

“Congratulations, fellow Daoist, for successfully passing the Second Immortal Gate. Please take good care of us in the future,” one of the men, about thirty years old, congratulated him.

“Thank you! My name is Qin Niu, may I have the honor of knowing your esteemed name?” Qin Niu could feel a completely different friendly atmosphere than before.

These people had succeeded in passing through the Second Immortal Gate, which meant that at worst they could become registered disciples of the Hundred-Tempering Immortal Sect. From then on, they would all be under the same sect.

If some could go further and pass the Third Immortal Gate, they would become official disciples of the Hundred-Tempering Immortal Sect, with statuses and futures far surpassing that of registered disciples. Getting acquainted now and building good relationships might make things easier when seeking help in the future.

Right now, nobody could be sure who would be able to pass through the Third Immortal Gate.

That was exactly why they were all being polite to each other.

“Hu Lang! From the Myriad Beast Gang, if I’m lucky enough to pass the Third Immortal Gate this time, then it would truly honor my ancestors.”

The young man was quite talkative.

The faint multicolored halo around his body indicated that he was someone who had successfully refined a strand of Immortal Qi.

This was very strong.

In Qin Niu’s eyes, the difficulty of refining a strand of Immortal Qi was much higher than obtaining two Immortal Ribbons.

Because during the process of refining Immortal Qi, one must fend off potential challengers who could appear at any time. And the attackers to fend off were more than just one.

“I believe Brother Hu will definitely achieve this wish. If I may be so bold to ask, what is the relationship between the Myriad Beast Gang and the Myriad Beast Immortal Sect?”

Qin Niu had a very good impression of the Myriad Beast Gang.

When passing through the territory of the Myriad Beast Gang, he received good care, and they even gifted him a sub-dragon steed.

That was a favor with real substance.

However, due to Xiao Qing’s involvement, he was destined to be an enemy of the Myriad Beast Immortal Sect. So he wanted to take this opportunity to ask for clarity.

“Haha, you’re asking about that? Our Myriad Beast Gang has no relation to the Myriad Beast Immortal Sect. Our Gang Leader was originally a Beast Tamer who raised quite a few Beast Pets. In a moment of inspiration, he decided on the name Myriad Beast Gang.

The Myriad Beast Immortal Sect is an absolute overlord in this realm, one that not even the Hundred-Tempering Immortal Sect would dare to provoke.

Even if we brazenly pleaded with them to take us in, they wouldn’t agree,” Hu Lang explained with a laugh.

“Thank you, Brother Hu, for clearing up my confusion.”

Qin Niu sat cross-legged and began to take inventory of the spoils from inside the Immortal Gate.

He held the small bag covered in runes in his hand, curious to see how many silver notes it contained.

“Brother Qin, this Storage Bag is quite a treasure. I’ve been saving money hoping to buy one someday,” Qin Lang said enviously to Qin Niu.
