Dan Ding Sect.
Once again, after more than a hundred years, the second mountain-protecting array that was activated due to the dispute between Hua Tian Sect and Upper Green Sect has been fully opened, which indicates the attitude of Dan Ding Sect at this time.
Neutral!
The purpose of the Dan Ding Sect has never changed, that is, to maintain neutrality above all else, not to take sides or meddle in chaos.
Since the news of the total annihilation of the Hua Tian Sect cultivators on the battlefield of the beast tide spread, almost all of the Three Sects and Six Orders speculated that the Upper Green Sect had secretly taken action.
Otherwise, with the beast tide already annihilated, who would kill the people of Hua Tian Sect? Who could wipe out the entire Hua Tian Sect team?
When Liang Sheng received this news, he was not only shocked but also slightly regretful, as Zhou Mo had always followed the Hua Tian Sect to fight in the beast tide battlefield.
Since all the people involved in the Hua Tian Sect’s campaign were wiped out, it could be inferred that Zhou Mo was also among them and had perished.
Even though he had the ability to seek fortune and avoid evil, he couldn’t escape this outcome, indicating that the person who took the shot possessed immense strength.
At this time, Liang Sheng couldn’t do anything about this result. He could only face in the direction of the beast tide battlefield, pour a glass of wine, and mourn for Zhou Mo’s passing.
Dust returns to dust, and earth returns to earth. He hoped that there would be an afterlife, just like the similar flower he had once encountered in the secular world.
Despite this, Liang Sheng still felt a sense of loss, after all, it had been nearly three hundred years since he had arranged for the Great Zhou family to enter the Cultivation World.
Zhou Mo, as the first generation disciple of the Hua Tian Sect that he personally sent into the Cultivation World, was brilliant, successfully establishing his foundation. But now, he had also become one with the yellow earth.
Liang Sheng felt some pain in his heart, but more so, he felt an increasing sense of urgency for his own strength. Even the joint efforts of several Golden Core Daoists of the Hua Tian Sect couldn’t prevent the total annihilation, which showed that the Cultivation World had never been safe.
It was the Dan Ding Sect that gave him a false sense of security. Cultivation itself was fraught with struggles. Where could true peace be achieved?
Therefore, he had to improve his strength as soon as possible, and try to lessen his involvement in cause and effect. Otherwise, without strong Dao protection now, he might perish one day.
He had a long life ahead, with plenty of time for growth. He had to be cautious and steady, for this was the most reliable path of cultivation.
Although the Dan Ding Sect had activated the second mountain-protecting array at this time, they still allowed disciples to come and go from the Sect if there were special circumstances.
After all, the current situation had arisen suddenly, and many things within the Dan Ding Sect had not yet been arranged.
For example, there were still disciples in the market within their territory, as well as cultivation resources in the market that hadn’t been accounted for, and so on.
The beast tide had lasted for so long and caused great losses. However, it had never entered the heartland of the Three Sects and Six Orders. Thus, the Cultivation Market had always operated safely over the years.
In addition, since the Upper Green Sect and Hua Tian Sect hadn’t made any moves at the moment, they wanted to take this opportunity to deal with these trivial matters. Everyone knew that the quieter the storm’s approach, the more earth-shattering its power would be.
At this time, activating the Mountain Protection Array not only expressed the Dan Ding Sect’s stance but also served as a precaution. So they wanted to settle all affairs as quickly as possible during this calm period before the storm, and then close the mountain, keeping trouble at bay.
When Liang Sheng received this news, an idea suddenly came to him. Since the beast tide had ended, would the passage to the secular world also return to normal?
This needed to be verified, which meant he had to go out. As such, without any hesitation, Liang Sheng stood up and went to find Xiang Chen.
Jin Quanxiu was still in closed-door cultivation, and the manager was naturally Xiang Chen. Xiang Chen was somewhat astonished when he looked at his normally obedient junior brother who wanted to go outside to check the situation.
Liang Sheng’s reason was also simple, “Senior Brother, according to the current situation, it is unclear how long the Sect will remain closed.
You know that from birth until now, I have always stayed in the Sect. I can’t help but think that I will have few chances to go out in the future. This time, I want to go with the disciples of the Internal Affairs Office to see what the so-called market situation is outside.
Of course, Senior Brother, you can rest assured. You understand my character,
I won’t mess around outside.
I just don’t want this small matter to cause a deficiency in my Dao heart. Since I really want to go and see, I shouldn’t suppress this idea.
After all, there will be disciples from the Internal Affairs Office accompanying me, and it will only be for a short time. I’m sure there won’t be any major problems. I’ll make a quick trip and return. Senior Brother, what do you think?”
Xiang Chen didn’t expect his junior brother to have such thoughts, but what he said made sense. Both he and Shen Wuque had been outside the Sect, while their junior brother seemed to have never left.
Considering the reason the junior brother gave just now, despite still feeling a bit worried, Xiang Chen weighed the pros and cons and eventually nodded his head.
Now indeed seemed like the best opportunity. After all, if the Upper Pure Sect was really going to wage war against the Hua Tian Sect, they would have to prepare for some time.
They might as well take advantage of this peaceful period to resolve the junior brother’s concerns, “Alright, but you have to promise me that you’ll return as soon as possible. You must not waste too much time outside.”
“Don’t worry, Senior Brother. I’m not like Second Elder Brother. I won’t be unreliable!”
With Xiang Chen’s help, Liang Sheng successfully registered to join the Internal Affairs Office disciples in their trip to the market, in order to bring back all the resources left by the Sect..
