Chapter 340: Grand Event_2
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
“Snow God Peak, Ice Polar Palace has already made a move, and Great Xing Mountain has sent out invitations as well. During this Slaughtering Demon and Corpse Resolution gathering, sects such as Haoqi Sect, Great Brahma Temple, Longhua Temple, and Vajra Sect’s Corpse Resolution Immortals will come forth to discuss alliance matters.”
“Among the four sects, there are five Corpse Resolution Immortals. With the alliance of the seven sects, we can muster the power of the Nine Immortals, and the grand ascension event can be accomplished. We might even prevent a war.”
In the midst of these words, Hong Ling’s gaze tightened, paying close attention to the other party’s expression.
The affairs of Snow God Mountain might be a secret to the ordinary Loose Cultivators, but for the Corpse Resolution Immortal Sect and all the other forces, it is basic knowledge.
This person has a Golden Core cultivation, coming up to Listening to Wind and Asking Rain Tower seeking information about Snow God Mountain at such a critical juncture…
The identity is indeed suspicious, almost self-evident.
White Jade Capital?
Is it, or isn’t it?
Regardless, as the manager of Listening to Wind and Asking Rain Tower and an outer elder of the “Haoqi Sect,” Hong Ling had to make her stance and intentions clear.
An alliance of the Seven Sects, ascent of the Nine Immortals.
This opportunity, does your White Jade Capital want it or not?
If you do, then we are on the same path. We can sit down and talk, avoiding a battle.
For Cultivators who value longevity, the death or injury of a few Golden Core elders means nothing to a Corpse Resolution Immortal. As long as you, White Jade Capital, are willing to compromise, those few great Corpse Resolution Sects could potentially persuade Great Xing Mountain to reconcile for the greater good, dismissing the thoughts of revenge that demand blood for blood, never resting until death.
Even if you don’t want it, it doesn’t matter. The ascension of the Seven Sects is imminent, and there’s no longer a conflict of interest.
So long as you don’t make things difficult, after our ascension, whatever Demon Transformation Spiritual Objects, whatever extraordinary treasures, all are there for the taking.
To ensure a smooth ascension, the seven sects can make many concessions.
If your White Jade Capital agrees, we can all turn our weapons into gifts of jade and silk.
Hong Ling’s heart tightened slightly, waiting for the other’s response.
However, the visitor did not express agreement or dissent, simply saying, “I have another question to ask.”
Hong Ling looked at him, speaking in a deep voice, “Please, go ahead.”
“Holy Blood Sect!”
“…”
As soon as these words were uttered, the silence was deafening.
Hong Ling’s brow furrowed, her mind full of shock and disbelief.
The visitor’s expression remained unchanged, quietly waiting for the response.
After a pause, Hong Ling finally spoke.
“The Holy Blood Demon Sect is an assembly of Demon Cultivators, condemned by all, to be exterminated by everyone!”
Having said that, she then slid forward a Jade Slip.
The visitor took the Jade Slip, examined it, and nodded in satisfaction: “Thank you!”
After speaking, he got up and left.
“…”
Hong Ling was conflicted yet ultimately did not stop him.
Only after he had gone did she hurry away.
A short while later…
Outside White Dragon Ridge, on a solitary peak.
Atop the peak stood a man with his hands behind his back, gazing at the distant White Dragon.
This middle-aged man, with a beard of five willows and a refined and elegant temperament, exuded the dignified air of a gentleman.
It was the Sect Master of “Haoqi Sect,” the Nascent Soul Corpse Resolution Li Qiankun.
Beside him was another person, draped in moonlit monk robes, with delicate and perfect features that made it difficult to discern their gender.
The Corpse Resolution of Longhua Temple, the monk Wu Que!
Li Qiankun stood with his hands behind him, gazing at the White Dragon Ridge.
Wu Que sat beside him, his prayer beads turning gently, silent.
At that moment, someone hurried over and reported to Li Qiankun: “Sect Master, Listening to Wind and Asking Rain Tower reports that a person who is suspected to be Azure Dragon from White Jade Capital came to inquire about Snow God Mountain and also asked about Holy Blood Sect.”
“Azure Dragon?”
Li Qiankun murmured to himself, “Where is he now?”
“He has already left.”
“I understand, you may go.”
“Yes!”
“…”
After the messenger retreated, Li Qiankun turned around, sighing deeply, “Troublesome times!”
Wu Que beside him smiled, “It seems that White Jade Capital has no connection with that Demon Sect.”
Li Qiankun shook his head, “To feign strength with weakness, to feign weakness with strength, who knows whether this is a strategy to create doubt?”
“Indeed.”
Upon hearing this, Wu Que too sighed, “A centipede may be dead but still wiggles. The Blood Demon Sect has always been difficult to deal with, and now we have an enigmatic White Jade Capital adding to the uncertainty of it all.”
“No matter what, the matter of ascension cannot change!”
Li Qiankun’s expression became icy, “But any opposition will be met with resistance, and any difficulty will be countered with measures. Let’s see how many tricks they have up their sleeves.”
“Amitabha!”
Wu Que softly chanted the Buddha’s name, sighing deeply, “Karma, karma!”
…
Three days later, the seventh day of the first lunar month.
Heavy snow sealed the mountains; the air was cold, and the earth was frozen.
However, at the head of the Azure Dragon, atop Great Xing Mountain, there was a bustling scene.
Spirit Light streaked across the sky, back and forth, as Magic Artifacts arrived, heading straight into the snow palace at the mountain summit.
The Slaughtering Demon Corpse Resolution grand assembly brought together the Seven Sects and Nine Immortals.
Such a grand occasion was no time for being petty or frugal with Mana.
Both the host of Great Xing Mountain and the visiting sects’ contingents put on a show of cultivator dignity.
Thus, the array of Spirit Light was dazzling to behold.
“Roar!!!”
Suddenly, a dragon’s roar thundered, shaking the heavens in all directions.
Everyone’s hearts jumped as they looked up to see a dragon’s shadow soaring towards them, its form massive like billowing clouds, alternately solid and illusory, clearly a Cloud Dragon.
“This is…”
“The Haoqi Cloud Dragon!”
“Sect Master Li Qiankun of Haoqi!”
“A Corpse Resolution Immortal has arrived!”
“It’s said that this Sect Master of Haoqi used the thousand-year potential of Haoqi Sect, relying on the fourth-tier Demon Transformation Yuan Spirit Haoqi Cloud Dragon to perform Corpse Resolution and Slaughtering Demon, making him one of the most formidable amongst Corpse Resolution Immortals, even with prospects of attaining Divinity Transformation.”
“The Haoqi Cloud Dragon, a Demon Transformation Yuan Spirit, neither plant nor tree, neither beast nor fowl, is the essence of a Yuan Spirit born from the vast sea of Haoqi clouds—possessing immense potential. Even with the practice of Corpse Resolution Immortal Law, there is hope for Divinity Transformation. It’s Haoqi Sect’s greatest potentiality.”
“With Sect Master Haoqi’s personal arrival, it seems this alliance of the Seven Sects and Nine Immortals is all but secured.”
“The Seven Sects and Nine Immortals, their whole sects Ascending—can it truly be achieved?”
While the crowd was discussing, the Cloud Dragon had already entered the snow palace.
At this moment…
“Roar!!!”
Another dragon’s roar came forth, no less powerful than the first.
The onlookers raised their heads in astonishment to see a white dragon’s shadow coming from beyond the heavens.
The White Dragon had no horns, resembling a python, and its form was far grander than the Cloud Dragon, even exhibiting flesh and blood.
“The Snow God Dragon!”
“It’s the Snow God Mountain master!”
“He has also come…”
“The Snow God Dragon, a fourth-tier Demon Transformation Spiritual Beast, only White Dragon Ridge can produce one.”
“When Snow God Mountain was divided into three, they each possessed a treasured legacy; Snow God Peak got the Demon Transformation Spiritual Beast Snow God Dragon, Ice Polar Palace had the ancient Spiritual Treasure Myterious Ice Palace, Great Xing Mountain…”
Amongst the crowd’s astonished speculation, the White Dragon also made its way into the snow palace.
The two Nascent Soul Corpse Resolution Immortals had arrived one after the other, serving as a prelude to the grand assembly.
Following the two, another ray of light appeared, astonishingly also in the form of a dragon that radiated dazzling golden light.
“That is…”
“The Venerable of Longhua Temple, Monk Wu Que!”
“His Corpse Resolution relies on the Demon Transformation Spiritual Root, the most treasured artifact of Longhua Temple—the Longhua Treasure Tree!”
“Although it is a Spiritual Root, it too takes the form of a dragon, which is particularly suited to Longhua’s Wonderful Skill, holding the hope for Corpse Resolution and Divinity Transformation!”
“Three dragons gathering on the snow mountain is indeed a sight once in a millennium.”
The shadow of Longhua descended into the Scholar’s Palace, and then a silver crystal palace emerged, bringing with it an intense chill as it descended from the sky.
Indeed…
“The Ice Polar Palace!”
“He has also arrived.”
“An ancient Spiritual Treasure, truly extraordinary!”
Amidst the buzz of conversation, several more impressive presences arrived.
“The Great Vajra Bright King!”
“The Great Brahma Amitabha Monk!”
“Six of the Seven Sects’ Corpse Resolution representatives have arrived!”
“Plus the ancestor of Great Xing Mountain, Luo Lie…”
“With six Corpse Resolution Immortals gathered together, this lineup…”
“Does White Jade Capital still dare to come?”
“Hmph, those people from White Jade Capital love to lurk in the shadows. Although they’ve continuously forced Great Xing Mountain into a retreat, it’s only because Great Xing Mountain lacks a Corpse Resolution Immortal to hold the fort.”
“That master of the Five Palaces is indeed powerful, but he only dominates among those at the Golden Core level. Faced with a Nascent Soul Corpse Resolution, unless the five band together, merging into one entity, they stand no chance at all.”
“It’s not necessarily the case, forming a Nascent Soul by Slaughtering Demon is not a simple matter.”
“Now there are only six Corpse Resolution practitioners. The ancestor of Great Xing Mountain hasn’t even begun Nascent Soul Condensing. If Slaughtering Demon fails and Corpse Resolution does not succeed, and if a Nascent Soul Demon Item emerges instead, that would spell deadly trouble.”
“Rumors suggest that the reason for Snow God Mountain’s downfall was due to a Corpse Resolution candidate from the mountain who failed at Slaughtering Demon, resulting in a Nascent Soul turning to Demon Transformation, which Snow God Mountain couldn’t suppress. This led to the arrival of several True Demons, ultimately resulting in the formation of a vast Demon Realm that swallowed the entire Snow God Mountain Sect.”
“Thus, Great Xing Mountain has called this grand Slaughtering Demon Corpse Resolution assembly, inviting several Corpse Resolution Immortals to witness the event and provide support in case of an emergency.”
“If White Jade Capital takes advantage of this opportunity…”
