Jiang Fan's sudden ascension to Earthly Immortal status sent shockwaves through Linwu City. Many True Immortals, including those in the Jiang Family who had previously treated him as expendable cannon fodder, expressed disbelief and envy. Those who had wronged him now feared retribution, facing the grim reality of his newfound power and the vast gulf between their statuses. The Jiang Family elders offered them a choice: self-execution or exile to guard external villages.

Their tone was extremely cruel, this is the fate of falling in the internal struggle of the family in the Immortal Realm.

Once, they were the geniuses of the family, with a deep background, supported by an Earth Immortal.

Naturally, they could bully the collateral branch Jiang Weidong.

But now Jiang Weidong has advanced to Earth Immortal, and he himself is the greatest backing.

"No, Clan Leader, how can we go to guard the village outside the city? Once we guard the village, it will be a certain death, unlike Jiang Weidong, such an existence who advanced to Earth Immortal, is extremely rare."

"That’s right, Clan Leader, you’re clearly sending us to die. We are the direct descendants of the Jiang Family, how can we die in the suburbs for no reason? Let those collateral descendants go instead, why sacrifice us direct descendants."

"Even if that Jiang Weidong has advanced to Earth Immortal, so what? We are in Linwu City, and even an Earth Immortal wouldn’t dare to harm us. We have no need to bother with him."

"Exactly, exactly, just pretend Jiang Weidong is not of the Jiang Family. Having one more Earth Immortal or one less makes no big difference to the Jiang Family, unless that boy advances to Heavenly Immortal."

"Hehe, still dreaming of advancing to Heavenly Immortal, it’s simply wishful thinking. Being able to advance to Earth Immortal is already his lucky break, probably he’ll be stuck at the early stage of Earth Immortal for life, unable to progress further."

Many direct descendants of the Jiang Family immediately clamored.

They definitely did not want to leave the safety of Linwu City for no reason and go outside to die.

Moreover, being in Linwu City, that guy simply couldn’t retaliate against them.

After all, this city is guarded by a Heavenly Immortal, and an Earth Immortal can’t cause trouble.

"Yes, indeed, as you said, an Earth Immortal can’t shake the order of Linwu City."

"No matter how much hatred Jiang Weidong harbors, as long as we ignore it, he can’t kill or harm you."

"But in this way, the entire Jiang Family will definitely be divided."

"By then, if that boy calls out, I’m afraid many collateral descendants will follow him."

"After all, an Earth Immortal can claim substantial benefits in Linwu City."

"But you, your potential has long been exhausted, and you’ll never advance to Earth Immortal in this life."

"So it’s worth using your lives to please Jiang Weidong."

"Our Jiang Family must never divide."

The Jiang Family Clan Leader said indifferently, his expression very cruel, cold and unfeeling.

In the past, he could abandon Jiang Weidong, and today he can also abandon this group of direct descendant True Immortals.

Honestly, True Immortals are not too valuable in the Immortal Realm, and they are just cannon fodder.

As long as a small price is paid, a large number of True Immortals can be cultivated.

Only an Earth Immortal is truly the Stabilizing Needle of the family.

Capable of protecting the family for hundreds of millions of years.

Many True Immortals cannot compare to one Earth Immortal.

Even if all the True Immortals in the family died, as long as the Earth Immortal remained, the family would still exist, and it wouldn’t perish.

"How could it be like this?"

Many True Immortals of the Jiang Family were ashen-faced.

How could they not understand that now they have been treated by the family as pawns, as chips to please Jiang Weidong?

Don’t look at the fact that they are direct descendants of the Jiang Family, but the Jiang Family has developed for so many years, and has long been filled with descendants everywhere.

What does it matter if some descendants die?

In the Immortal Realm of the current era, even True Immortals are just cannon fodder, hardly worth mentioning.

Undoubtedly, for immortals, cultivation and strength are the most important.

The so-called bloodline and direct descendant status cannot protect one’s life at all.

......

Several days later.

Jiang Fan received permission from the high-levels of Linwu City and returned to Linwu City from the Jiang Family Village.

After all, he is now an Earth Immortal, with a completely different identity and status.

In the past, the Jiang Family, to please him, sent all those who had persecuted him out of the city.

A large number of True Immortals wailed, but all to no avail.

Because there are simply too many True Immortals in Linwu City, even if a bunch dies, it doesn’t matter.

In such matters, Jiang Fan neither took the initiative nor refused, nor admitted.

He is not really Jiang Weidong, so he doesn’t have true feelings about Jiang Weidong’s past affairs.

However, he still needs to play the role of Jiang Weidong, so he won’t take the initiative to do anything.

Since the Jiang Family wants to please him, he certainly won’t refuse.

Because of this, he also smoothly received permission to go to the Time Sect.

After all, this is a benefit for each new Earth Immortal, new Earth Immortals can practice at the Time Sect for a period.

Unless eliminated, they can stay at the Time Sect for cultivation.

Boom~~

Not much later, Jiang Fan took the teleportation array of Linwu City and was instantly teleported to the Time Sect.

"This."

Just entering the Time Sect, Jiang Fan found himself on a platform of a mountain peak.

However, it was not only him; around this platform, from time to time, appeared figures of Earth Immortals.

Other Earth Immortals, like him, curiously observed the surroundings, as if it were their first time coming to the Time Sect.

But what shocked Jiang Fan was that the concentration of Immortal Qi around was more than a hundred and even a thousand times that of Linwu City.

Even taking a slight breath, his body’s Immortal power increased, and his internal Pocket World had slight growth.

The cultivation efficiency was unknown how many times higher than the outside world.

Undoubtedly, this place is absolutely the Cultivation Holy Land of the Immortal Realm.

"Is this the legendary Time Sect?"

"No wonder it’s an Immortal King Level force, just the Immortal Qi concentration alone is a thousand times that of the outside world."

"As far as I know, if it’s the core area, it might be ten thousand times, or even a hundred thousand times."

"It’s really exaggerated, no wonder the immortals of the Time Sect progress so rapidly; even a pig could easily cultivate to Earth Immortal here."

"If we practice here, our cultivation efficiency will definitely get an amazing boost."

"Wait, haven’t you noticed anything odd about this area? The time flow, the time flow has changed, quite different from the outside world."

"Yes, earlier I noticed my lifespan was being consumed much faster, thought it was an illusion, but everyone feels the same."

"Hehe, this is the truly terrifying aspect of the Time Sect. The time flow here is a hundred times that of the outside world. Meaning one year outside, a hundred years pass here."

"Are you kidding, a hundred times the time flow, no wonder the Time Sect can mass-produce immortals, if one is in such a fast time flow area, immortals are like consumables being mass-produced."

"Indeed, normally, the birth of a True Immortal takes at least several thousand years, but at the Time Sect, it might only take decades, maybe even faster."

Undoubtedly, the immortals arriving here are mostly newly-advanced Earth Immortals.

They all come from various cities in the Immortal Realm.

Though the territory occupied by the Human Race now is countless times smaller than in the past,

Even so, just occupying a small piece of land is unimaginably larger than the Mortal World’s Great Thousand Worlds.

A single city like Linwu City has over ten billion.

Because of this, each year a batch of Earth Immortals are born and then teleported to the Time Sect to practice.

"Hundredfold time flow?"

"The Time Sect sure is extraordinary."

Jiang Fan’s pupils contracted.

In fact, he had already sensed something was wrong, perceived the changes in the Time Law.

Previously, there had also been such time changes in the Void Realm.

But he didn’t expect the Immortal Realm to have it too.

However, it seemed that this power of time is likely confined to one region, not throughout the entire Immortal Realm.

Yet, even so, this power is still terrifying, capable of affecting the local time flow in the Immortal Realm.

"A group of bumpkins, this is the time domain unique to the Time Sect, don’t you all know this?"

"Any immortal with a bit of knowledge about the Time Sect would know this matter."

"This is a Supreme Immortal Technique exhibited by the Time Abyss Immortal King, altering the local time flow."

"It’s said that the Time Sect has many unique time areas."

"Some places are almost time-stopped, some areas reach a time flow of ten thousand times."

"So many places in the Time Sect are extremely dangerous; breaking into these forbidden zones inadvertently, it’s a dead end."

Some Earth Immortals with deep backgrounds said.

They looked disdainfully at the surrounding Earth Immortals, feeling that those noisy Earth Immortals were really inexperienced.
