Chapter 2199: Chapter 1018: The Truth
After reaching an agreement, Earth Virtue was very pleased and shouted as he went downstairs, announcing a grand event to be held at Nine Heavens Tower, inviting several witnesses present.
“I have some matters…”
Hong Yun, however, forced a smile and left Nine Heavens Tower.
“I wonder when Sect Master Chen might be available, I have something I’d like to discuss privately with you.”
Mu Youyi hesitated for a moment, and considering the need to report to the Ten Thousand Spirits Sect, he resolutely asked this question.
“Tonight, I will send someone to invite Fellow Daoist Mu.”
Chen Mobai surmised Mu Youyi’s concerns and thought it wise to be candid, saying this.
“Alright.”
Mu Youyi nodded, then bid farewell to Ni Yuanzhong and the others present, and left Nine Heavens Tower as well.
“It seems they don’t wish for us to reconcile.”
Master of Earth Virtue Mountain noticed the two departing individuals and spoke with intent.
“It’s likely because of the Communicating Holy Spirit Pill; after all, the quantity per batch is limited…”
Ni Yuanzhong spoke directly what Earth Virtue left unsaid, as the Sect Leader of Nine Heavens Morality Sect, he needn’t hold back.
This time, the Dao Morale Sect’s expedition dispatched many Nascent Soul forces from East Continent, including Fire Cloud Palace and Beast Commanding Sect, which are prominent on the list of Communicating Holy Spirit Pill exchange.
One batch of Communicating Holy Spirit Pills, with Dustless True Monarch’s success rate, yields about seven or eight pills.
Taixu MiaoMiao Palace reserved two pills, and Nine Heavens Morality Sect at least guaranteed one pill as the bare minimum. The Dao Morale Sect, having exerted the most effort, claiming two pills isn’t unreasonable.
That’s five pills already accounted for.
This means that, for cultivators outside the Three Great Sacred Lands, at most three pills are available.
Among them, Yi Yuan Dao Palace, Star Heaven Dao Sect, and Fire Cloud Palace rank in the top three exchange forces.
Beast Commanding Sect, due to familiarity with True Spirit, ranks sixth but essentially has no chance, unless the True Spirit’s Blood extracted from the Golden Flame Manticore is abundant enough to refine two batches.
Because of this, Chen Mobai was aware that Mu Youyi sought him likely due to the Poisonous Dragon matter.
“Congratulations to the two Daoist friends, you reconcile with a smile and spare East Continent from warfare.”
Ni Yuanzhong slightly mentioned the Communicating Holy Spirit Pill, then quickly changed the subject, raising his hand to Chen Mobai and Earth Virtue, expressing congratulations.
“Thanks to Sect Leader Ni for intervening, however, there’s one more matter that requires your sect’s aid…”
Earth Virtue first expressed gratitude to Ni Yuanzhong, then sighed, bringing up a matter weighing on his heart for a long time.
“Oh, is this true!”
Upon hearing, Ni Yuanzhong’s face grew stern, his demeanor filled with murderous intent.
“Absolutely true, since I publicly accused, I naturally have full confidence and am willing to abide by your sect’s guidance, directly confront that person, and even make a Daoist Heart Oath!”
Master of Earth Virtue Mountain portrayed a righteous and intimidating demeanor.
This time, he represented Yi Yuan Dao Palace and Five Elements Sect to reach an agreement, publicly perceived as Dao Palace bowing to the latter as a Holy Land.
And to restore Yi Yuan Dao Palace’s dignity as a Holy Land, naturally someone had to be scapegoated.
This individual, Master of Earth Virtue Mountain had prepared for hundreds of years, and now was the opportune time to bring them out.
All wrongs were with the Demon Path.
He, Earth Virtue, for the resurgence of Yi Yuan Dao Palace, endured humiliation and bore burdens.
“Please wait, I will invite Dao Morale Sect’s Dustless True Monarch.”
After listening, Ni Yuanzhong became cautious.
As the matter involved Ming Zun, a master of the Eastern Demonic Path, it was prudent to call upon a Divinity Transformation from the Righteous Path for reinforcement.
Previously, when Ming Zun clandestinely acted against Ye Qing, his potential had already been revealed.
Although Yuan Qingque slayed Ming Zun for Ascendance, East Continent’s Three Great Sacred Lands remain alert to this Eastern Demonic Path master.
Since he could twice advance to Divinity Transformation, there might very well be a third.
The fortunate aspect is Ming Zun’s reliance on the Demon Path Supreme Treasure, the Wheel of Reincarnation, was taken to the Upper Realm by Yuan Qingque, ensuring Dustless True Monarch could easily suppress even if Ming Zun reincarnates and advances again.
Dao Morale Sect also possesses Sixth Rank Treasures.
“Master of Earth Virtue Mountain, what a skillful tactic.”
After Ni Yuanzhong left, only Chen Mobai and Earth Virtue remained in Nine Heavens Tower. Listening to their conversation, Chen Mobai viewed Earth Virtue differently.
“Although somewhat cautious, the skill in scapegoating is unmatched.”
“Not at all, back when Nephew Liu was murdered and Nephew Su went missing, I suspected an infiltrator from the Demon Path within Mount Wudi all along.”
“But to avoid alerting that person, I pretended to focus solely on cultivating to Divinity Transformation, staying in retreat, while secretly using Secret Techniques to monitor all Dao Palace cultivators on Mount Wudi. That person was very cautious, leaving no traces since then.”
“It wasn’t until Ling Ming’s Nascent Soul Formation that I narrowed suspects down to a few but couldn’t truly pinpoint. The revelation came during the righteous and demonic clash, when they revealed Elder Xiao and others’ troop movements, allowing Xuanji Demon Sect’s Kuang Jiyuan to calmly setup a large formation for an ambush…”
As Master of Earth Virtue Mountain spoke of this, he sighed, seemingly grieving for the deceased Fire Virtue Mountain master and others.
“It’s my incompetence; if only I realized sooner.”
Upon hearing this, Chen Mobai finally understood why this person could maintain the top position in Mount Wudi for so long after the Great Elder Ling Ming’s demise.
