Chapter 494: Origin of the Five Elders Association

Chapter 492 – Origin of the Five Elders Association
“Move quickly! Don’t look around!”

Ten Thousand Immortal Island was almost leveled to the ground, and the group of cultivators from the Five Elders’ Association started digging up the ground.

Li Fan wanted to look again, but he was scolded by the armored cultivator and forced to move away from the place.

Several teams of armored cultivators formed a spell formation and whisked the crowd of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance like a flock of sheep, arriving at the bottom of the canyon beyond a small hole.

At the entrance of the cave, there was a gust of demonic wind, and it looked like an eerie atmosphere.

“Go in! What’s the point of dawdling!”

The armored cultivator at the head of the group pestled the weapon in his hand on the ground and droned like angry thunder.

Among the crowd, there were those with indignant faces, and they glanced at each other as if they were secretly discussing matters of resistance.

However, the situation was stronger than the people, after hesitating for a while, they finally gave in.

The next into the dark cave.

Li Fan was nothing more than a borrowed puppet body, so naturally he did not have much fear.

However, in order to be inconspicuous and live longer, he also pretended to be very frightened and followed the crowd.

One foot stepped into the cave and the light disappeared before his eyes.

The next moment, a very different scene from what was expected appeared in front of the crowd.

Instead of the twisting and dark passages within the mountain, they inexplicably appeared in a lush green valley.

In the distance, a wooden attic seemed to be visible.

There were dozens of people sitting on the ground in front of the attic, listening to a scholar-like cultivator speaking about something.

Seeing that it didn’t seem like they were going to be tortured or tortured, the Wanxian Alliance cultivators who were originally foolish and attempted to resist, also became peaceful again.

They decided to take a look at the specifics first, and then act as they see fit.

Under the escort of the armored cultivators, the crowd slowly approached towards the attic.

Li Fan, who was hidden in the crowd, was keenly aware of some kind of change in his body during this process and slightly changed color.

It turned out that while continuously approaching the attic scholar, their bodies seemed to be continuously getting smaller.

This change was limited to the detained belongings of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance, the armored cultivators, the scholar, and even the scenery in the surrounding valley, all of which had not changed in the slightest.

And so although their speed of advancement did not decrease, it was as if they were getting farther and farther away from their goal.

This unusual sight caused a slight commotion to rise in the ranks of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance, but it was quickly suppressed.

“Move faster!”

The armored cultivator’s figure had swelled to the size of a small mountain in their eyes.

Without the slightest bit of mercy, he kept urging.

For the first time, viewing people from the perspective of a true molehill, the crowd of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance had difficulty maintaining their composure.

Their faces gradually turned white as they subconsciously obeyed the armored cultivators.

The shrinking in size still did not stop as they kept moving forward.

When it took almost a dozen days, the crowd finally arrived before the attic.

The scholar was already like a mountain in their eyes, holding up the sky and the ground.

“Sit down.” The scholar said in a gentle tone.

However, when it fell on the ears of the crowd, it was as if a great bell was ringing and filling the heavens and earth.

It constantly reverberated in their hearts.

It seemed to go straight to the depths of the soul, and even if the crowd isolated their self-perception, they still couldn’t stop the would-be from hearing the scholar’s words in their minds.

So they lost control of their bodies and obediently sat on the ground.

“What kind of divine power is this?”

The crowd was all appalled.

The armored cultivators saluted towards the scholar and saw that the crowd of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance had already taken their seats, then quietly left.

The scholar looked at the crowd and sighed softly, “Another group of lost sheep.”

“However, since you all are destined to be here, I will not let you all go back to the wrong path.”

The crowd, who regarded themselves as cultivators of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance, were naturally filled with disbelief when they heard these words.

“In your eyes, what does our Five Elders Association look like?” Just then, the scholar asked softly. “Manipulating cultivators with soul contracts, evil to the extreme!”

“Lasting on, within a thousand years, it will definitely be destroyed by the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance.”

“Foolish, backward!”

“Although it’s not a good thing, but to be able to fight against our Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance for so long, it must have its own redeeming qualities.”

……

Under the scholar’s inquiry, everyone spoke up and stated the answers in their hearts.

But the appalled expressions on their faces were clearly stating that the answers they gave at this moment were not of their own initiative.

However, in the face of the scholar’s questioning, not all of the cultivators had lost control and answered of their own accord.

At the very least, this puppet that Li Fan was hosting was unaffected.

There were also some YuanYing cultivators who resisted the scribe’s manipulation in a frown.

“Isn’t this the group version of the Heavenly Doctor’s [Ask] technique?” Li Fan was also alarmed.

“Even though the power doesn’t seem to be as good as the Heavenly Doctor himself, but after all, the spell was cast on so many people.”

Li Fan was on high alert, ready to give up his puppet body at any time.

Luckily, the scholar did not pay too much attention to Li Fan.

The crowd replied with a word from you.

The scholar, on the other hand, was smiling and listening sideways.

After a long time, the crowd finished speaking, and the outside of the attic slowly quieted down.

The scholar, on the other hand, shook his head and said, “Big mistake!”

“Do you know where our Five Elders Association originated from?”

The crowd all shook their heads.

“After the Heavenly Father of Transmission of the Law created the new law, relying on the appalling speed of cultivation, the scattered cultivators of the world launched an onslaught against the Immortal Dao sects.”

“And within the sect, it split into two factions, fighting and killing each other.”

“However, before we could completely split the difference between a winner and a loser ……”

The scholar did not answer directly, but instead recounted the history for the crowd.

“The great calamity of heaven and earth has come, and the Law cannot be practiced in the same way.”

“The Immortal Dao sects suffered a devastating blow, with not a single one left in a hundred.”

“But after all, they have ruled the Xuanhuang Realm for ten thousand years and have a deep heritage.”

“There are still some surviving sects that escaped the calamity. They shunned the world and waited for the bloody storm to pass.”

“When the killing ended, the darkness disappeared. On top of a ruin, they united once again.”

“This, in turn, is the prototype of the Five Elders Society today.”

Ignoring the dumbfounded reactions, the scholar said slowly.

“The battle between the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance and the Five Elders’ Association is really still a battle between the new and old forces of Immortal Cultivation.”

“All the fights in the world largely stem from the oppression of the later by the forerunners.”

“Therefore, it has been going on for thousands of years and is still uninterrupted.”

“It will never end until there is a complete victory or defeat.”

“You are in the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance, it’s normal for you to be hoodwinked, and you can’t be blamed.”

The scholar revealed a face of compassion.

The crowd of Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance cultivators sitting on the ground, listening to the scholar’s lecture, all wore shocked expressions.

Although they had all gotten used to the existence of the Five Elders Association, this was the first time they had heard about the origin of the Five Elders Association.

Li Fan was not as surprised as the other cultivators when he heard this.

Sister Zhao, one of the five Eternal Heavenly Dignitaries of the Five Elders’ Association, was the head of the Great Dao Sect, one of the ten sects of the Immortal Dao back then.

Therefore, Li Fan had guessed that the Five Elders Association was composed of the surviving sect cultivators.
