Chapter 2045: Five Major Family Clans

Heaven Immortal Cold Light cupped his fists gently. “Fellow Daoists, don’t worry. Astral Sect has already heard about this. After today, we’ll make a few copies of this painting and send them down separately. If we discover anything, Astral Sect will definitely suppress this person with all our might!”
“Yes,”
An Earth Execution Guard nodded slightly and surveyed his surroundings. He swept his gaze across the crowd in front of the sect sharply.
Su Zimo’s current appearance was very different from the painting. He was covered in mud and his face was red, as though he had already fallen asleep.
The gaze of the Earth Execution Guard swept past him without stopping at all.
“Have any of you seen this person?”
The Earth Execution Guard on the left shook the painting in his hands and asked in a deep voice.
“Exalted Immortal, we’ve waited here for two days along the way but haven’t seen this person,”
A young man in white robes stood out. His black hair draped over his shoulders and he had sharp brows and phoenix eyes. He was elegant as he cupped his fists towards the two Earth Execution Guards and said with a smile.
Su Zimo opened his intoxicated eyes and glanced at that person.
Earlier on, he heard people discussing that this young man was from one of the five major family clans of Solar Luna County, the Lin clan. His name was Lin Ming and he was a Grade 7 Earth Immortal!
This time round, the Lin clan brought more than a hundred clansmen over with different cultivation realms. There were Black Immortals and Earth Immortals.
However, among the hundred-odd clansmen, Lin Ming had the highest cultivation realm.
From the positions of the clansmen, it could be determined that Lin Ming had a high status among the Lin clansmen.
Lin Ming stood out this time round in a pandering manner to the Earth Execution Guard.
However, the two Earth Execution Guards in midair did not appreciate it at all. They merely glanced at Lin Ming indifferently before retracting their gazes.
Although the Lin clan was quite powerful in Solar Luna County, they were far inferior compared to the Execution Guards.
The Execution Guards were backed by the royal family of the Great Jin Immortal Kingdom!
On the other side, another young man stood out from the crowd. He held a folding fan and wore purple robes. He cupped his fists. “Exalted Immortals, don’t worry. If we discover his tracks, the Xie clan will be the first to stand out!”
The Xie clan was second of the five major family clans of Solar Luna County.
The person who spoke was Xie Tianfeng, also a Grade 7 Earth Immortal.
When that person stood out, he even glanced at Lin Ming, as if he wanted to fight this person.
“Report any news immediately!”
An Earth Execution Guard was expressionless as he threw the painting in his hands to Heaven Immortal Cold Light. After saying that, he turned to leave with the other person.
Su Zimo heaved out a sigh of relief.
If the two Earth Execution Guards were not afraid of trouble and checked the hundred thousand cultivators outside the sect, he would not be able to hide anymore.
On the other side.
Not long after the two Execution Guards left Astral Sect, one of them suddenly asked, “Brother Chen, why didn’t we check on the hundred thousand cultivators outside Astral Sect earlier on?”
“Su Zimo is definitely not among them,”
Execution Guard Chen replied.
“Why do you say that?”
The other person was surprised and said, “The commander personally said that Su Zimo knows the Myriad Transformations technique and can change his appearance into another person.”
Execution Guard Chen asked instead, “Let me ask you, how long can a Grade 9 Heaven Immortal sustain the release of Myriad Transformations?”
“That depends on the strength of their Essence Spirit. Even if their Essence Spirit is condensed, they won’t be able to sustain it for long. Myriad Transformations is a supreme divine power after all. Sustaining it will consume too much of the Essence Spirit.”
The person replied.
Execution Guard Chen said, “Doesn’t that settle it? Su Zimo is only a Grade 1 Earth Immortal. Even if he knows Myriad Transformations, how long can he sustain it?”
“There are a hundred thousand cultivators outside Astral Sect with so many pairs of eyes. If he couldn’t hold on, he would have been exposed a long time ago.”
The other person was enlightened and praised, “Brother Chen, you’re wise.”
Execution Guard Chen replied, “These are experiences. You’ve just joined the Execution Guards, take your time to learn. If we have to check everyone we meet from head to toe, won’t we die of exhaustion?”
…
Astral Sect.
After the two Execution Guards left, Heaven Immortal Cold Light instructed the Astral Sect disciples to send the painting in his hands down and send someone to copy it as soon as possible.
On the other side, he had already begun hosting the entrance trial.
Similar to what the Grade 3 Black Immortal said earlier on, the entrance trial of Astral Sect was rather simple and did not have any cultivation realm requirements for cultivators.
Everyone stood on the stargazing platform. As long as starlight appeared on their bodies within ten breaths, they would pass the trial.
There were a hundred thousand cultivators outside the sect.
However, the stargazing platform was made from a meteor and was extremely spacious—it could accommodate more than a hundred people at the same time with ease.
According to normal speed, more than 30,000 people could be tested in an hour.
Before daybreak, the trial for the hundred thousand people could end.
Su Zimo was in no hurry to advance. Instead, he stood in the crowd and paid attention to the movements on the stargazing platform.
Not many of the hundred people who ascended the stargazing platform at the same time could trigger starlight.
At times, there were only one or two people.
At times, even among the hundred people, no starlight could appear.
Before long, a group of cultivators in similar attire headed towards the stargazing platform. On their waists were the word Wang.
It was one of the five major family clans, the Wang clan.
The leader of the Wang clansmen was Wang Yu.
Although he looked ordinary, he had a calm expression, short hair without any beard and a burning gaze. He looked extremely capable and was a Grade 6 Earth Immortal.
Behind Wang Yu were all clansmen of the Wang clan and most of them were Black Immortals.
More than a hundred Wang clansmen stood on the stargazing platform and looked up at the starry skies at the same time.
A single breath later, faint starlight shone from Wang Yu’s body.
As time passed by, the starlight on Wang Yu’s body intensified and even formed a thick beam of light that extended from his head into the firmaments.
Heaven Immortal Cold Light nodded slightly and said, “It’s already not bad for the starlight to leave the body at a height of 10 feet.”
On the third breath, the starlight beam above Wang Yu’s head rose once more to a height of 20 feet!
That scene caused a series of exclamations.
“I heard that the brighter the starlight, the better one’s endowment and talent. Someone who can condense a beam of light is definitely someone with extraordinary talent!”
“What does the triggering of starlight actually have to do with anything?’ A failed cultivator asked in frustration.
“I heard that it might be related to the bloodline.”
“No matter what, once you’re on the stargazing platform, you can activate all your Essence Spirits and bloodlines without holding back.”
As everyone discussed, ten breaths passed.
The starlight above Wang Yu’s head had reached a height of 40 feet!
Among the 50,000 people who had passed the trial, Wang Yu was the first to condense a beam of light that was 40 feet tall.
“Not bad, 40 feet. He’s quite a rare genius,”
Beside Heaven Immortal Cold Light, a yellow-robed Daoist nodded slightly with a smile.
On the other side, an old man lamented, “I heard that when Astral Sect was just established, all the paragons and monster incarnates of the Heavenly World were gathered here. In fact, some of them could even condense starlight beams that were 80 to 90 feet tall…”
“Unfortunately, those have already become legends.”
