The moment the Heavenly Celebration Cloud descended, Qi Ming had already sensed the pressure of the Primordial Heavenly Venerate at a close distance. It was as if the Heavenly Dao had descended. It was too powerful and filled him with reverence.

The Primordial Heavenly Venerate was also an existence that had surpassed the Immortal realm and was comparable to the Six Dao Heavenly Venerate. It was also because of this that the Primordial Demon Sect could rival the Nine Provinces Immortal Dynasty.

The scene in front of Qi Ming was blurry. He had entered a mysterious independent world.

In front of him was a mighty figure sitting cross-legged on the Dao Lotus. The surrounding Dao laws were suffused and blurry, making it impossible to see clearly.

“Dao Cultivator Qi Ming, I am the Primordial Heavenly Venerate.”

Qi Ming heard an incomparably dignified voice come from the figure in front of him, “You and I are fated to be master and disciple. Today, I’ll grant you the Heavenly Celebration Cloud Umbrella. I’ll take you in and protect your Dao path. You can be called my entry disciple.”

“After this Epoch Calamity, when the merit is fulfilled, you can enter the Primordial Heaven and become my inner disciple.”

The figure in front of Qi Ming transformed into a blurry stream of light that flew over and fused into his body from the center of his brows before disappearing.

All kinds of information appeared in Qi Ming’s mind.

There was understanding in his eyes.

At the same time, Qi Ming opened his eyes.

Above, the Heavenly Celebration Cloud slowly condensed and transformed into a physical object. This was a Heavenly Celebration Cloud Umbrella. It was simple and unadorned. It was completely glass-colored and contained deep profundity.

Then, the Heavenly Celebration Cloud Umbrella landed in Qi Ming’s hand.

“This…”

The 108 Branch Masters of the Primordial Demon Sect took a deep breath. When they saw this situation, after their shock, they gradually calmed down.

After they entered the Primordial Demon Sect and their cultivation levels increased, they sat in the position of the Branch Master step by step. Only then were they qualified to enter the eyes of the Primordial Heavenly Venerate.

However, they only had golden lotuses, golden lamps, jade pearls, and beads. This meant that they could not obtain the true recognition of the Primordial Heavenly Venerate and could only become registered disciples of the Primordial Demon Sect.

Qi Ming was different. He had indeed obtained the true recognition of the Primordial Heavenly Venerate. The Heavenly Celebration Cloud gathered and transformed into an umbrella.

He became the entry disciple of the Primordial Heavenly Venerate.

Clearly, the status and identity of an entry disciple was naturally higher than that of a registered disciple. If he could obtain the inheritance and divine powers of the Primordial Heavenly Venerate, his status in the Primordial Demon Sect would also be higher.

In the entire Primordial Demon Sect, only the Sect Master of the Primordial Demon Sect obtained true favor when he met the Primordial Heavenly Venerate and became his entry disciple.

“Congratulations, Senior Qi.”

“Congratulations, Senior Brother Qi. You have obtained the favor of the Heavenly Venerate. The heavens are celebrating your ascension to a disciple.”

“Congratulations…”

In the surroundings, the Heavenly Demon Branch Master, the Puppet Branch Master, and the other 106 Branch Masters bowed to Qi Ming. Their tone was very respectful. Although they had entered the sect much earlier than Qi Ming, they were still registered disciples.

Qi Ming directly became the entry disciple of the Primordial Heavenly Venerate the moment he came. His status naturally surpassed theirs.

Now, Qi Ming became their senior brother.

They were only envious and did not dare to be jealous or hate him.

Honestly, Qi Ming also did not expect the situation to develop like this. He had become the entry disciple of the Primordial Heavenly Venerate and the senior brother of the 108 Branch Masters of the Primordial Demon Sect.

It was indeed surprising.

Most importantly…

From the beginning to the end, Qi Ming had never truly seen the Primordial Heavenly Venerate. He had only seen the statue of the Primordial Heavenly Venerate’s avatar and his blurry back. However, he sensed the power and grandeur of the Primordial Heavenly Venerate and had not truly seen it.

The moment Qi Ming accepted the Heavenly Celebration Cloud Umbrella and joined the Primordial Demon Sect, the corresponding information appeared in his mind.

First, Qi Ming did not have to pay any price to join the Primordial Demon Sect, but he had to abide by the rules set by the Primordial Heavenly Venerate. If he violated the rules, he would be punished.

If not, he would be imprisoned for 100,000 years.

At worst, he would cripple his cultivation and reincarnate.

There were not many sect rules.

There were still three.

The first rule: Respect your master.

The second rule: No killing of fellow disciples.

Third rule: Follow the Heavenly Dao and do not go against the heavens.

As long as they did not violate these three sect rules, it was basically nothing major. However, after joining the Primordial Demon Sect, they still had to help the Primordial Demon Sect defeat the Nine Provinces Immortal Dynasty.

Of course, Qi Ming had already become the entry disciple of the Primordial Heavenly Venerate. He naturally had to protect the dignity of his sect.

In addition, he did not really join the Primordial Demon Sect. His true master was the Primordial Dao Sect. The Primordial Demon Sect was only a branch of the Primordial Dao Sect in the Nine Provinces Domain.

Qi Ming already had an irreconcilable grudge with the Nine Provinces Immortal Dynasty. As long as there was a chance, he would naturally not let go of the opportunity to take revenge on them.

Now, Qi Ming did not only join the Primordial Demon Sect on the surface, but he also joined the Primordial Dao Sect. In the entire Primordial Demon Sect, only Qi Ming and the Sect Master of the Primordial Demon Sect knew the truth.

The 108 Branch Masters of the Primordial Demon Sect were only registered disciples. They were not qualified to know the existence of the Primordial Dao Sect. They only had some guesses.

Clearly, the Primordial Dao Sect was naturally not a demonic sect. This could be seen from the sect rules set by the Primordial Heavenly Venerate. However, for the Primordial Demon Sect to develop into a Demon Cult was indeed a little unbelievable.

There were many reasons for this.

For now, Qi Ming did not know for the time being.

However, he would slowly know in the future.

“Thank you for your help, Junior Brothers.”

Qi Ming held the Heavenly Celebration Cloud Umbrella. In it, there were cultivation methods and divine powers passed down by the Primordial Heavenly Venerate. He did not understand them yet.

“Senior Brother Qi, what do you plan to do next?” The green-robed girl, the puppet lineage master, asked.

“Senior Brother Qi, why don’t you come to my Perish lineage?” The Perish Branch Master suggested.

“No, no, Senior Brother Qi. You should come to my Hell lineage.” The Hell Branch Master said.

“…”

Immediately after, the Branch Masters were fighting to rope Qi Ming in.

“No.” Qi Ming smiled and cupped his hands in greeting to the Branch Masters, “Thank you for your kindness, Junior Brothers. I plan to open another lineage in the Primordial Demon Sect.”

“It’s called Heaven Enlightenment lineage.”

“At that time, I hope that Junior Brothers will come and support me.”

“This…”

“Open another lineage…”

“Indeed. With Senior Brother Qi’s status, joining our factions is indeed a waste of his talent. He can completely open another lineage.”

“That’s right, that’s right.”

“At that time, when Senior Brother Qi’s Heaven Enlightenment lineage is established, the entire Primordial Demon Sect will have 109 lineages and will become even stronger.”

“Good, good, good.”

“I support Senior Brother Qi’s decision.”

“…”

The Branch Masters looked at each other and said.

“Thank you.”

Qi Ming bowed again.

Time passed.

In the blink of an eye, a hundred years later.

In the Primordial Demon Territory, the 109th lineage: Heaven Enlightenment lineage was established.

Heaven Enlightenment Sacred Mountain.

Looking over, it was an incomparably grand and magnificent holy mountain. In the demon territory surrounded by demonic qi and fiendish qi, Heaven Enlightenment Sacred Mountain was unique. Thick green qi surrounded it and was independent.

Qi Ming used a hundred years to establish Heaven Enlightenment lineage in the Primordial Demon Territory. Moreover, he had released all the servants he had obtained from the Immortal Realm game dungeon in the past hundred thousand years.

The various systems of Heaven Enlightenment lineage were basically copied by Qi Ming from the other 108 lineages.

Qi Ming made some changes to the sect system.

First, he was the Branch Master of Heaven Enlightenment lineage. His status was the highest. Under the Branch Master, there were three different identities: elder, deacon, and disciple.

Elder.

Their status was divided into: Grand Elders, legacy elders, inner sect elders, outer sect elders, and servant elders.

Deacon.

Their status was divided into: Disciplinary deacons, legacy deacons, inner sect deacons, outer sect deacons, and servant deacons.

Disciple.

Their status was divided into Dao Children, legacy disciples (personal disciples), inner sect disciples, outer sect disciples, and servant disciples.

In the entire Heaven Enlightenment lineage, there was only one Grand Elder.

That was the Demon Buddha Red Dust.

Apart from that, Qi Ming still had six immortal pets. They were all Zenith Heaven Golden Immortals who cultivated the laws. They were in the position of disciplinary deacon and helped Qi Ming supervise the entire Heaven Enlightenment lineage.

The authority that the deacons had was that they were the executors of Heaven Enlightenment lineage. As long as they violated the sect rules, the deacons could exercise their authority and punish the disciples or elders who violated the sect rules according to the corresponding sect rules.

The authority of a disciplinary deacon was the greatest. A disciplinary deacon could punish any elder or disciple other than Qi Ming. He naturally had to let his six most trusted immortal pets assume the role.

In a hundred years, Qi Ming had already perfectly established the entire Heaven Enlightenment lineage. In these hundred years, Qi Ming first spent a lot of effort and considerable price to refine Heaven Enlightenment Sacred Mountain.

Heaven Enlightenment Sacred Mountain was actually an extremely powerful immortal treasure.

Qi Ming had already set up the Small Heavenly Star Array and enveloped the entire Heaven Enlightenment Sacred Mountain. This way, even the Upper World Immortal Kings could not easily spy on the situation of Heaven Enlightenment Sacred Mountain.

Many disciples had already joined the entire Heaven Enlightenment lineage. Unknowingly, they had already become stronger and stronger. In less than a hundred years, it was enough to be compared to the other 108 lineages.

This was mainly because Qi Ming had obtained a large number of immortal realm servants in the Immortal Realm game dungeon. These servants filled the various vacancies in Heaven Enlightenment lineage.

It quickly filled up.

After Qi Ming displayed the power and potential of Heaven Enlightenment lineage in succession, it naturally attracted many Demon Dao immortals to join, causing Heaven Enlightenment lineage to become stronger and stronger.

Over the years, he had obtained countless divine powers, cultivation methods, spells, materials, medicinal pills, treasures, and so on. They were basically all used to fill the foundation of Heaven Enlightenment lineage.

Qi Ming completely relied on his own strength to establish Heaven Enlightenment lineage that was comparable to the other 108 lineages. It was indeed very unbelievable..
