Chapter 312 The Complex Situation in the Tianlong Sea, and the Plans of the Nine Sword Sects!
However, now is not the time to consider this matter.
The most urgent task is to return to the family.
He said, "Ling Shuang, Great Sage, let's go, we need to speed up our journey."
The arrival of the Wei family is enough to prove that the Tianlong Sea is not as peaceful as it appears.
We will return to our family immediately.
As soon as the voice fell, he quickly flew out of the cave and disassembled the three array plates that had played a huge role, storing them in his Myriad Spirits Ring.
Then they boarded a flying boat and flew towards Xuanxiao Mountain.
……
Time flies, and twenty days have passed in the blink of an eye.
Since the Jiuhua Sword Sect closed its doors to the world, the five major forces—the Donglan Wei family, the Tianyang Sect, the Tianjian Palace, the Gudao Sect, and the Qingyun Sect—have been constantly at odds.
They continuously try to win over these major forces to their side.
To expand one's power and influence.
The operation has now affected more than half of the Tianlong Sea area.
Countless smaller factions were wiped out during this period.
The vast majority of the forces that were destroyed were those that felt the situation was unclear and wanted to remain neutral.
However, it was not the five major powers that destroyed these forces, nor the affiliated forces that had submitted to the five major powers.
It is a heretical practice.
That's right, it's evil cultivation.
The remnants of the Soul Devouring Cult have begun to become active again in the Tianlong Sea.
However, it lacked its previous arrogance and was just a minor skirmish.
As for who the mastermind is, all the major forces have their own guesses, but none dare to speak out.
Even if there were evidence, what use would it be?
Faced with absolute power, your efforts are nothing more than the rage of the incompetent.
It's not worth mentioning at all.
Unless it's a powerful organization like the Heavenly Craft Pavilion, Heavenly Array Sect, or Ice Palace that steps in.
But this is clearly impossible, as these three major forces will not participate in the struggle in the Tianlong Sea.
Jiuhua Sword Sect.
Sword Tomb.
Qingming Zhenjun Hua Shisan, dressed in a plain white robe, stood beneath a paulownia tree radiating endless flames.
It carefully protected the little figure formed from flames in the heart of the tree.
The little figure lay quietly in the flames, sleeping peacefully within them.
It only occasionally rolls over.
Hua Shisan's eyes were gentle as water as he murmured, "Senior sister, this is a fourth-grade low-rank Fiery Phoenix Tree that I obtained by going to the Flying Feather Immortal Sect at a great cost."
I heard that the guardian beast of the Flying Feather Immortal Sect, the Blazing Golden Fire Phoenix, hatched on this tree.
It is very compatible with the cultivation method you practice.
Get well soon, senior sister.
Oh, and I have some good news for you.
My inner demons have been eliminated, and the bottleneck of the mid-stage Nascent Soul realm has loosened. I will be able to begin the breakthrough soon.
Once you recover, we'll work together to bring glory to the Jiuhua Sword Sect.
Is that alright?
……
Just as Hua Shisan was pouring out his heart, a middle-aged man dressed in a white and gold robe, with a cold and handsome face, appeared behind him.
However, Hua Shisan ignored him and continued talking.
Seeing this, the middle-aged man remained silent, standing still without showing any anger in his eyes.
His gaze fell on the little figure in the flames, his eyes filled with respect and anticipation.
After a long while, Hua Shisan slowly turned around, looked at the middle-aged man in front of him, and smiled:
"Yun Tian, has something happened?"
After bringing Zhu Jingyi, who was in a state of Nirvana, back to the sect, Hua Shisan's smile became much brighter.
Upon hearing Hua Shisan's question, Jian Yuntian immediately bowed respectfully.
He replied respectfully, "Reporting to Master, nothing serious has happened."
However, after my Nine Hua Sword Sect closed its gates, the Wei family of Donglan and the five forces of Qingyun Sect began to stir.
They have already begun to integrate and win over various forces in order to compete for the position of overlord of the Tianlong Sea.
"This disciple has come to hear Master's thoughts."
Upon hearing Jian Yuntian's words, Hua Shisan smiled confidently.
An aura of dominance over the world surrounded him, completely changing his previous dejected state.
"I don't have any particular thoughts."
Let them make a fuss.
As long as it doesn't affect us, we don't need to pay attention to it.
The position of overlord of the Tianlong Sea belongs to my Jiuhua Sword Sect, and no one can take it away.
A hundred years later, the disciples of the Nine Hua Sword Sect will emerge from the mountains once more...
All sects bow down!
Zhu Jingyi was not dead. He eliminated his inner demons and broke through to the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm with exceptional ease.
It's even possible that, through years of accumulated experience, they could break through to the late Nascent Soul stage within a century.
At that time, let alone a group of forces without Nascent Soul cultivators in charge, what harm would it do if someone broke through to the Nascent Soul stage?
Jian Yuntian felt overjoyed as he sensed the aura emanating from Hua Shisan.
He congratulated, "Congratulations, Master! Your inner demons have been eliminated, and the path to the Great Dao is within reach."
"Haha." Hua Shisan chuckled, his gaze falling on Jian Yuntian. "The Wei family's power is not enough to make you, the sect leader, come here personally."
"Tell me, is there anything else you want to say?"
Upon hearing this, Jian Yuntian was not surprised. It was quite normal for his master to see through it.
He replied, "Master has keen insight."
There is indeed one more thing. After investigation, it turns out that my junior sister, Luo Lingshuang, is now in a Golden Core family.
According to the people in the Shadow Department, she seems to be in love with Zhang Xuanchen, the patriarch of the Golden Core Zhang Clan.
They intend to become Daoist partners.
What should we do?
Upon hearing this, Hua Shisan dropped the nonchalant smile from his face.
His expression turned serious.
He paced back and forth, lost in thought.
Silence fell over the scene, broken only by the rustling sound of the wind blowing through the flames.
Hua Shisan's face showed worry and confusion.
This was indeed unexpected news.
It's truly unexpected that a proud young woman from the Central Immortal Continent, who has gained the recognition of a fifth-tier spiritual artifact, would choose the patriarch of a minor Golden Core clan.
After a long silence, he let out a long sigh:
"Forget it, we won't get involved in this."
Ling Shuang... is someone my Nine Hua Sword Sect can't afford to offend.
She contributed significantly during the great battle against the Soul Devouring Cult, and has long since repaid the kindness of our sect in protecting her.
Now we're even.
We don't need to worry about what happens in the future.
Don't upset Ling Shuang over anything unnecessary, otherwise we won't be able to withstand the wrath of her family.
However, the Zhang family is a family worth keeping an eye on, but don't disturb them.
Let things take their natural course.
The Nine Hua Sword Sect, the power behind Luo Ling Shuang, was too powerful to offend, so Hua Shisan did not choose to interfere with her decision.
Otherwise, once her family comes looking for her, who knows what will happen to the Zhang family, but the Nine Hua Sword Sect will definitely be destroyed.
Upon hearing Hua Shisan's words, Jian Yuntian nodded.
I have no objection to Master's decision.
He spoke again, "There is one more thing, Master."
The disciple plans to go into seclusion in a month to attempt to break through to the Nascent Soul stage.
The sect elders are all in seclusion to heal their injuries.
Therefore, the disciple has handed over the reins of power to the young sect master, Zhou Tianjian.
If a disciple fails to break through, he will perish in the tribulation of lightning.
Please support Tianjian's succession, Master.
He is excellent and will surely become a good sect leader.
Jian Yuntian's voice wasn't loud, but Hua Shisan could clearly sense the firmness in his words.
He looked at Jian Yuntian with a complicated expression, a hint of guilt flashing in his eyes.
After all, as the master, he didn't have the ability to find a Nascent Soul Pill for his disciple.
He sighed and said, "Have you thought it through?"
With what you've accumulated so far, breaking through to the half-step Nascent Soul stage shouldn't be a big problem.
However, without the Nascent Soul Pill, forcibly attempting to break through to the Nascent Soul realm would almost certainly result in death.
