Chapter 336 - 146: Spy in the Immortal City, Sect Competition, 100 years of Closed-door Cultivation to become a True Monarch? (9k merged chapter for monthly pass request)_3
However, the desire of the Dan Ding Sect had long transcended the Desolate Regions. Perhaps their mission or their very existence was to monitor the entire Desolate Regions for the Immortal City.
This was terrifying!
Moreover, when the Guest Elders were invited by the Immortal City earlier to set up the array, there was no deceiving anyone. However, so many obvious vulnerabilities had been overlooked by the Three Sects and Six Orders for many years.
There must have been some special means involved, otherwise why had there been no ripples at all?
Wait!
It seemed that he had also neglected this matter. After the success of the Second Mountain-protecting Array, the sect was left with the title of Guest Elder, but they had never seen them.
In other words, the Dan Ding Sect might have the means to send people back to Immortal City. Thinking of this, his heart couldn’t help but race.
After arriving in the Far East with the address given by Desolate Domain Zhou Mo, he saw the teleportation array of the Immortal City. Would there be one inside the Dan Ding Sect as well?
Upon thinking of this, he suddenly raised his head, his face full of shock. No wonder Elder Jin had previously said that Hua Tian Sect would not be annihilated even if there were no Nascent Soul Masters present.
If the Dan Ding Sect faced the danger of annihilation, it would probably be the cultivators from the Immortal City that would show up in front of their enemies!
Perhaps realizing Liang Sheng’s shock, Jin Quanxiu was extremely satisfied in his heart. However, he decided to give Liang Sheng a knock.
“However, Cheng’er, unless it comes to the point of annihilation, we will not contact the Immortal City. Just like during the beast tide, we will not use the power of the Immortal City until the last moment.
We just didn’t expect that the Sect Master would fall in the final stage of the beast tide. However, their sacrifices were worth it, as they were able to quell the beast tide.
In addition, after that, I inadvertently broke through into the Nascent Soul Realm, and the Dan Ding Sect did not experience any unrest. Thus, this matter was only briefly communicated to the Immortal City after I became Sect Master.
In fact, it was only after I became Sect Master that I learned of the relationship between the Dan Ding Sect and the Immortal City.
No matter who it is, as long as they can become the Sect Master and reach the Sect Master Hall, they will know the truth.
As for the Grand Elder, he temporarily took the position of Sect Master back then, so he also knew the truth, which is why he became the Grand Elder later.”
Upon saying this, Jin Quanxiu deeply looked at Liang Sheng. Liang Sheng immediately understood that since the Grand Elder was no longer the Sect Master and had learned this secret, he went into closed-door cultivation shortly after the Sect Master Ceremony and had not appeared since then.
It was to hide this secret. Wait, what about himself!?
Jin Quanxiu, seeing Liang Sheng’s reaction, gave him a meaningful look. “Cheng’er, you are actually even more outstanding than Chen’er and Que’er. So practice hard, perhaps in the future the Dan Ding Sect may rely on you.”
What?
Did the Master mean to let him become the Sect Master? Or did he really value him so much that he would reveal this secret to himself?
“By the way, since you are not the Sect Master of our Dan Ding Sect, now that you know this truth, it is better to swear to the Heavenly Dao that you will not reveal it.”
What else could Liang Sheng do but immediately swear in the name of “Yang Cheng”? In his heart, however, he thought that it seemed he had no choice but to go into closed-door cultivation for now to avoid these troubles.
Liang Sheng had never expected that things would turn out like this, but he quickly recovered.
Actually, closed-door cultivation was quite good too. After all, he had enough resources on his body to cultivate for thousands or even tens of thousands of years, and he had no bottleneck in his cultivation. By that time, he wouldn’t even dare to guess what kind of realm he would reach.
However, on the other hand, his thoughts were completely different from what Jin Quanxiu had guessed. He did not feel more secure because of the relationship between the Dan Ding Sect and the Immortal City.
After all, any relationship in the world of cultivation was unreliable. Even with the support of the Immortal City, wasn’t Dandingzi still dead in the end?
Moreover, if it wasn’t for him, the Desolate Regions would have long been under the control of demonic beasts. By that time, even if the Immortal City stepped in, they would only support a new sect.
As for people like them, their lives didn’t matter at all to the Immortal City!
With this thought in mind, closed-door cultivation seemed pretty good for him right now, as he had so many problems only because of the numerous cause and effect entanglements he had.
And the best way to resolve cause and effect was time. To put it bluntly, who would bother him once everyone, including his Master, had died?
Thinking of this, Liang Sheng couldn’t help but nod his head, finally making up his mind. “Master, I understand. I will immediately enter closed-door cultivation. Please take care of everything in the meantime.”
“Go ahead!”
Seeing Liang Sheng take the advice, Jin Quanxiu also relaxed slightly, hoping that his young disciple could break through to the Nascent Soul Realm in the future.
Otherwise, he could only remain in the Dan Ding Sect like the Grand Elder, never leaving again.
Dan Ding Sect.
The emissaries from the other sects arrived at Danyang Peak soon after, even Hua Tian Sect hurried over, asking about Liang Sheng’s situation in a roundabout way.
Upon hearing that Liang Sheng was in closed-door cultivation, the faces of the people from the other sects changed, while only the people from Hua Tian Sect secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Hua Tian Sect naturally didn’t want Liang Sheng to go to other sects. Although they also believed that Liang Sheng’s breakthrough into the Nascent Soul Realm was far-fetched, it was better to be cautious, as cultivation was mysterious.
At this time, Jin Quanxiu was all smiles, but there was firmness in his words. The Dan Ding Sect welcomed all sects to come and learn, but taking away their own disciples was absolutely impossible.
Even if it was like Hua Tian Sect, offering another spiritual tool was still out of the question.
Under such circumstances, what else could the others say?
