Chapter 1976: Chapter 960:
“Cooperation?” Chen Mobai looked puzzled. Doesn’t the Star Heaven Dao Sect also have a request from the Dao Morale Sect, wanting the Communicating Holy Spirit Pill?
“There’s something that the Yi Yuan Taoist Child probably doesn’t know. Over at East Li, several old demon heads who disappeared a long time ago have recently shown up. They are already gathering a cultivator army and assembling at the Eastern Land border, likely preparing to start another battle between righteousness and magic soon!”
“East Dawn Demon Dao? Without a Divinity Transformation holding the fort, I could single-handedly sweep through them. How dare they?”
Chen Mobai was puzzled, though Yi Yuan Dao Palace is currently closed off, but the other Three Great Sacred Lands are not mere decorations. All have Deity Transformation True Monarchs seated as super forces. Especially Yuan Qingque from Nine Heavens Morality Sect, who is one of the Fifteen closest to ascendance in this realm, ranked among the Four Truths.
The gap between Divinity Transformation and Nascent Soul is enormous, Chen Mobai had witnessed this during the Immortal Gate’s war developments.
It’s not something that numbers can compensate for.
Especially those Divinity Transformations nearing ascendance.
Each one is at least at Qian Xing’s level.
“Those cunning demons dare to show their faces, naturally because they have someone backing them. Our Starry Sky Commerce Guild’s informants in East Li received reliable information that the missing Ming Zun of several hundred years has reappeared, returning to Tongyou Demon Sect.”
Xing Ji spoke with seriousness, revealing news that caused Chen Mobai’s expression to dramatically change.
“Ming Zun! He actually didn’t die!”
This was the top enemy of Yi Yuan Dao Palace.
Ye Qing deceived me!
Chen Mobai immediately understood how much attention he would attract from the Demon Path if he carried the title of Yi Yuan Taoist Child.
Ming Zun, that guy, wouldn’t he exploit the big against the small?
“Not only Ming Zun, but even the Ghost God of Qu Shen Demon Sect has been invited out of Huangquan, and the True Spirit Dharma Aspect of the Demon Race Royal Court has shown up in East Li. Since these great demon sects dared to make a move, at least the realm of Divinity Transformation won’t be less than the sacred lands.”
After Xing Ji finished revealing these secret messages, Chen Mobai had only one thought in mind.
Quickly return to the Eastern Wilderness, initiate the Sky Curtain Ground Network Formation, and diligently guard your own doors.
This scale of battle between righteousness and magic is not something their backwater Five Elements Sect can participate in.
“This matter might also be instigated by the Dao Morale Sect’s attempt to open uncultivated land. If they truly refine the Communicating Holy Spirit Pill, our Righteous Path could potentially gain several Deity Transformation True Monarchs, which would completely unbalance the forces between righteousness and magic in East Continent,” Xing Ji conveyed his speculation. Their Star Heaven Dao Sect is a major force in East Continent, second only to the sacred lands. Once war begins, they can’t escape and must be at the frontline.
“Then it seems that there will definitely be a clash between righteousness and magic before opening the uncultivated land!” At this point, Chen Mobai was quite relieved, as the Five Elements Sect’s territory was far on the frontier, separated by East Land from East Li, making it impossible for the demon army to reach the Eastern Wilderness.
“Not long after, it’s estimated that the closed Yi Yuan Dao Palace will also be invited out, for only your sect has the experience dealing with Ming Zun on the East Land side.” Xing Ji remarked with a half-smile, alluding to his previous discussions with a few masters of Yi Yuan Dao Palace when Chen Lingming and Xiao Yuli descended the mountain.
“I hope for our righteous path to achieve victory!”
Chen Mobai pretended not to understand and said this sentence.
“In due time, the Burning Heaven Meridians will also be drawn to the frontline. The Burning Heaven Purifying World Fire they wield collectively is very effective against that Ghost God of the Demon Path. If the Yi Yuan Taoist Child is willing, they can send people to help the Sun Bathing Sea guard Golden Crow Immortal City, to prevent Demon Path thieves or the Demon Tribe army from the Mysterious Flood Dragon Royal Court from landing and seizing the large-scale transmission array there!” Xing Ji spoke gently.
The large-scale transmission array at Golden Crow Immortal City links directly to the heartland of East Land, making it a key point during war.
“Though I have enmity with Bai Wu Patriarch, if he fights at the frontline, I certainly won’t send forces to attack his Golden Crow Immortal City.”
Chen Mobai still adhered to some principles, despite Xing Ji’s reasonable request, no one is foolish. If this truly happened, the Five Elements Sect’s image in East Land would be thoroughly ruined.
“What if the holy land asks the Yi Yuan Taoist Child to guard Golden Crow Immortal City, this sea gate immortal city?”
Xing Ji further inquired.
“Since Golden Crow Immortal City belongs to Sun Bathing Sea, naturally only if Bai Wu Patriarch personally requests me, I would lead the Five Elements Sect’s army northward to take charge of Golden Crow Immortal City.”
After many years in Tianhe Realm, even when annihilating the opposing sects like Shake Mountain Peak and Xuan Xiao Dao Palace, Chen Mobai always had absolutely legitimate reasons, putting himself at the pinnacle of Dao and virtue.
“Yi Yuan Taoist Child, this is somewhat of an insult, Bai Wu is not deserving of this!”
However, Xing Ji misunderstood, thinking Chen Mobai was prideful, wanting Bai Wu Patriarch to personally bow to him.
“You misunderstood, Dao brother, but hasn’t your sect and Dao Morale Sect reached an agreement yet?”
Chen Mobai didn’t want to continue discussing this and immediately changed the topic.
“Barely reached an agreement that the various junior brothers and sisters can accept, but it’s merely a verbal agreement with Dao Morale Sect’s Shenxi Sect Master.”
Xing Ji sighed, not hiding from Chen Mobai, revealing the result of his many years of navigating and negotiating.
If he succeeded in Divinity Transformation using the Communicating Holy Spirit Pill, Star Heaven Dao Sect must offer the Three Lights Divine Water alchemy recipe to the sacred lands.
If he failed in Divinity Transformation, he wouldn’t need to offer the Three Lights Divine Water alchemy recipe, but would have to present the sect’s treasured Immortal Book jade slip to the sacred lands for them to comprehend once.
