Chapter 215 Becoming the 6th Elder
A professional novel website offering the most comfortable reading experience.
The number of Golden Core cultivators in Changchun Valley is now less than one hundred. Unlike Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment cultivators who have limited time, Golden Core cultivators have a lifespan of five hundred years.
In addition, Golden Core cultivators require more cultivation resources, which means they need to frequently go out on adventures or exchange resources with others.
What surprised everyone was that so many Golden Core cultivators in the sect were unfamiliar with Wu Tao.
Later, everyone could only conclude that the other person was an ascetic, and there were quite a few such ascetics.
However, no one else was like Wu Tao, who didn't even have a single fellow disciple or friend in the sect.
You said that time is tight during the Qi Refining stage, and everyone is also busy with their own affairs. But once you break through to the Foundation Establishment stage or the Golden Core stage, there is plenty of time to relax.
Wu Tao is a loner, and if it weren't for this tribulation, probably no one would remember his special qualities.
Some people also wondered if they had been too relaxed before. Look at others, no wonder they were able to pass the tribulation so quickly.
Even the five Nascent Soul stage elders were in the sky, occasionally exchanging glances with their divine senses. They had actually investigated Wu Tao and discovered that he was indeed a genius cultivator.
Furthermore, they discovered that the other party had a conflict with Li Chao during the Qi Refining stage. Upon seeing this, all the patriarchs present were dumbfounded.
So this guy actually competed with Li Chao in his early years, although it seems now that there's a gap in talent between them.
However, compared to the other members of the sect, Wu Tao was still quite impressive. Seeing his battlefield achievements over the years, the group exchanged bewildered glances, realizing they might have misjudged him.
This is no nameless genius; he is clearly a prodigy, but he has never flaunted it.
Everyone here is a seasoned veteran, so Wu Tao's choice is naturally not surprising. Compared to Li Chao, who was his contemporary, Wu Tao's choice now seems to be the best one.
However, this person is too low-key. If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't hide his tribulation this time, he probably wouldn't have planned to let everyone notice him.
Wu Tao sat in the center of the cave that had been destroyed by the tribulation clouds, using all his magical power to fight against the tribulation clouds while swallowing large amounts of pills to heal his wounds and replenish his true essence.
For an alchemist, the pills he needed would certainly not be a problem. He had prepared enough pills in advance to help him overcome his tribulation.
Wu Tao did it on purpose, even though he hoped to keep a low profile. However, the treatment and status of a Golden Core cultivator and a Nascent Soul cultivator are vastly different.
At least at the Nascent Soul stage, he can arrange his cultivation and find resources more flexibly.
By now, Wu Tao had a considerable understanding of various aspects of the cultivation world, but due to his previous cultivation level, he dared not go too far even when he went out.
Although a Golden Core cultivator is not considered weak in the cultivation world, they can easily be instantly killed when traveling far from home.
Only by breaking through the Nascent Soul stage can one calmly face unknown dangers.
The three tribulation clouds finally fell one by one, and the sky slowly began to clear.
Under a clear blue sky, Wu Tao, disheveled and exhausted, sat on the ground. Above him, a fist-sized baby was curiously looking around.
"Fellow Daoist Wu, your Nascent Soul is just beginning to form. You cannot expose yourself to the outside of your body for an extended period of time. Please put it away quickly."
"Thank you for the reminder, Fellow Daoist Wang."
As he spoke, the nascent soul above Wu Tao's head flashed and entered his body.
Then five figures appeared in front of Wu Tao, and Wu Tao hurriedly stood up to greet the Nascent Soul stage elders.
"Fellow Daoist Wu, why don't you move to another place for seclusion first, and we can discuss everything after you officially emerge from seclusion?"
"Alright, thank you, Fellow Daoist Liu."
Wu Tao didn't hold back either. Now, with his Nascent Soul stage strength, he was on par with the other five patriarchs.
If it weren't for the fact that cultivators need time to stabilize their realm after just undergoing tribulation, Changchun Valley would be holding an elder appointment ceremony right now.
The five Nascent Soul stage elders of Changchun Valley are Zhao, Qian, Sun, Li, and Wang.
Now, with Wu Tao added to the list, and following Li Chao's reconstruction, Wu Tao is now the rightful sixth elder of Changchun Valley.
Wu Tao was taken directly to a large hall by several elders, where the spiritual energy was the best in Changchun Valley.
Wu Tao thanked everyone casually and then went inside to stabilize his cultivation level.
On the way there, Wu Tao also declined their offer to hold a grand onboarding ceremony. Instead, he hoped that everyone would keep things simple, as he didn't particularly like such lively scenes.
Elder Zhao, Elder Qian, Elder Sun, Elder Li, and Elder Wang were all somewhat helpless. This person was far too low-key; they were all Nascent Soul stage elders, yet their actions were so unassuming.
Although cultivators are supposed to be pure of heart and have few desires, everyone cultivates desperately not only in the hope of reaching the peak, but also in the hope of showing off their saintly abilities to others.
Unfortunately, none of these things apply to Wu Tao; he seems to be hoping that no one can see him.
Faced with Wu Tao's reluctance, the elders could only reluctantly agree to hold a small event, but they would definitely inform the sect internally.
A Golden Core cultivator was also coming to pay his respects to the newly appointed Sixth Elder, and Wu Tao could no longer refuse.
He had already made up his mind that even if he achieved a breakthrough in the future, he would never let anyone know.
Wu Tao secluded himself in this hall for a whole year before he could stabilize his cultivation.
Now at the age of 330, he has finally broken through to the Nascent Soul stage. Compared to his lifespan of 1,000 years, he is very young now.
Although he arrived at the Foundation Establishment stage decades later than Li Chao, it doesn't matter. What matters is that he is still alive and well, while Li Chao has already returned to the Foundation Establishment stage.
Because he possessed his own disciple's body, Li Chao is currently keeping a low profile. Apart from a very few individuals who know his secret, the ordinary cultivators in the sect are naturally kept in the dark.
Wu Tao kept a close eye on the other party, so he could recognize Li Chao after he had been possessed at a glance.
Wu Tao became the sixth elder of Changchun Valley, sitting in the elder's seat in the sect's main hall. Nearly a hundred Golden Core cultivators, each with their Foundation Establishment disciples, came one by one to pay their respects to him.
Wu Tao has now become famous in Changchun Valley, and even the cultivation world of Song Kingdom knows about this newly promoted Nascent Soul stage cultivator.
After Wu Tao became famous, people naturally dug into his past. It was at this time that people realized that Wu Tao and Li Chao had a conflict in the past.
Many people were mentally judging Wu Tao and Li Chao. Judging from the results, Wu Tao was clearly the better choice, since Li Chao had already been publicly declared dead.
Now many cultivators feel that it is better to keep a low profile in the cultivation world, otherwise no matter how talented you are, you will eventually be reduced to ashes.
Look at Elder Wu, although he was always unknown, he was able to live to the end with a smile.
This stark contrast is more powerful than anything else.
Furthermore, cultivation is a long and arduous path. No matter how slow you are, it's all worthwhile as long as you reach the end.
