The next day.
A spirit boat soared into the sky and headed in the direction of the Qianyuan Sword Sect.
Inside the spirit ship.
Chen Daoxuan, Zhou Mubai, Zhang Xuanling, Fire Spirit Daoist, and the others sat around a table.
“Brother Zhou, I saw Old Ancestor Zhou’s attitude yesterday. Is your Zhou family planning to break off relations with the Ye family?”
“That’s right. What’s the attitude of your Zhou family now?”
Upon hearing this, the Fire Spirit Daoist asked impatiently.
Seeing everyone’s expressions, Zhou Mubai sighed.””Now that things have come to this, so what if our Zhou family and the Ye family don’t break off?
The Qianyuan Sword Sect will definitely recover the Southern Mountain Pass and not break off with the Ye Family. Do you want Ye Wudao to lead the Cangzhou cultivators to recover the Southern Mountain Pass?”
“What a joke!”
Zhang Xuanling stood up excitedly and then sat down again. He said angrily,” The Zhang family will never let Ye Wudao command anyone of the Zhang family again!”
“Look!
Zhou Mubai opened his hands at Chen Daoxuan.
Hearing this.
Chen Daoxuan frowned.
It had to be said that Ye Wudao’s escape this time made all the cultivators in the Azure Continent, including the Ye family’s original clansmen, completely cold to this Ye family ancestor.
No matter how high his cultivation level was, how could they allow such a villain to lead the army to recover the Southern Mountain’s City?
“Then…What do you guys plan to do next?”
“Brother Chen, what do you mean?”
Zhang Xuanling looked at Chen Daoxuan.
“My meaning is that since everyone has decided to fall out with the Ye family, then we might as well go all out!”
“What do you mean by being completely ruthless?”
Daoist Fire Spirit’s interest was immediately piqued.
“Everyone knows that the Cangzhou Immortal City is the largest immortal city in Cangzhou. Apart from that, it also plays the role of the trading hub of the various prefectures.”
Upon hearing this, Fire Spirit Daoist thought for a moment and said,””That’s true. Most of the spirit jade mines of my Zhao family are sold to the various prefectures in Cang Prefecture.”
“My Zhou family’s medicinal pills are also sold to the various prefectures in Azure Continent.”
Zhou Mubai nodded.
It’s the same for my Zhang family.” Zhang Xuanling frowned.”
So, as long as the Ye family holds the Azure Continent Immortal City in their hands, it’s equivalent to holding the trading rights of the various prefectures in Azure Continent in their hands. How effective is our so-called breaking off with the Ye family?”
Hearing this.
Everyone fell silent.
After a long while, Zhou Mubai looked at Chen Daoxuan with his deep gaze.””You mean that we should choose an immortal city among the various immortal sects to be the new trading hub?”
“Yes, but not entirely.”
Chen Daoxuan paused for a moment.” Let me ask, if we choose Guang ‘an Prefecture Immortal City as the new trade hub, are the immortals from the various prefectures willing?”
Hearing this.
Zhang Xuanling and Fire Spirit Daoist fell silent.
Although they had a good personal relationship with Zhou Mubai, Fire Spirit Daoist and Zhou Mubai had a life-and-death friendship.
However, this involved the interests of the clan and the hundreds of thousands of cultivators in the clan.
They couldn’t possibly abandon the public for personal reasons.
By the same logic, if he chose the immortal city of the Zhang Clan in Jin ‘an Prefecture or the Zhao Clan in Shuo’ an Prefecture, the other clans would be unhappy.
“The only solution now is to give up the Azure Continent Immortal City and build a new immortal city!”
Zhang Xuanling said firmly.
“But where is the position of the immortal city?”
Daoist Fire Spirit sighed.
The distance between the mansions in the Infinite Star Sea was at least 100,000 miles.
This distance wasn’t much to Zifu Disciples.
Be it his speed or the spirit ship, he could easily travel within the Azure Continent.
However, for Qi Condensation cultivators.
The distance between each prefecture was too far.
For example, the Chen Clan of Shuanghu Island had to spend a month to reach Guang ‘an City.
And this was only within the territory of the prefecture.
What if he went to the other prefectures in Cangzhou?
Wouldn’t it take months or even years to travel?
The lifespan of Qi Condensation cultivators was limited, so how could they waste so much time on the road?
Originally, the Azure Continent Immortal City was used as a transit hub because the Ye family had connections and could mobilize the large transport ships from the Yun Nation’s frontline to and from the various states.
The various prefectures could use the transport ships at the front line to transport their goods to the Azure Continent Immortal City to complete the trade.
However, if the Ye family was excluded.
They did not have such a large transport ship that could be used for trade between the various prefectures of Cang Prefecture.
Seeing that everyone was at a loss, Chen Daoxuan said seriously: “In the end, it’s still a transportation problem!”
“Yes, I am!”
The three of them nodded.
Compared to this problem, no matter which immortal city was chosen as the business hub, it was better than Cang Prefecture!
Anyway, everyone now hated the Ye family, especially Ye Wudao, from the bottom of their hearts.
Chen Daoxuan leaned forward slightly and said,””I think this is an opportunity!”
“What opportunity?”
“Think about it. Ye Wudao abandoned the city and fled this time. Not only are the cultivators of Cangzhou dissatisfied, but there will also be many people in the Qianyuan Sword Sect who are dissatisfied with him.”
Zhou Mubai nodded.” Indeed. Ye Wudao abandoned the Southern Mountain’s City and ran away. It caused a huge disturbance in the Qian Yuan Sword Sect. In the end, it was the Third Elder of the Qian Yuan Sword Sect who calmed the disturbance.
However, although the storm could be calmed, the dissatisfaction in everyone’s hearts could not be calmed.”
“Yes!
Chen Daoxuan clapped his hands and said,” In addition, he abandoned the city and fled this time. The internal dissatisfaction of the Qianyuan Sword Sect with him will become stronger.
After all, the Southern Mountain’s City was about to be recovered, and the main force of the Southern Mountain’s City was the cultivators of Cangzhou. Would the Qianyuan Sword Sect still be willing to let Ye Wudao be the commander of the Southern Mountain’s City?”
“Are you saying that the Qian Yuan Sword Sect wants to suppress the Ye Family?”
“Of course!”
Chen Daoxuan nodded.
“But…What does this have to do with us building a new city?”
The Fire Spirit Daoist looked at Chen Daoxuan in a daze.
Chen Daoxuan patiently explained,” Even if the Qianyuan Sword Sect is dissatisfied with Ye Wudao and the Ye Family, it’s not appropriate for them to suppress Ye Wudao’s father.
However, if we Cangzhou cultivators boycott the Ye family, I don’t think the
Qianyuan Sword Sect would mind taking advantage of the situation.”
Zhou Mubai frowned.” How do we know that the Qian Yuan Sword Sect is willing to go with the flow?””
“It’s simple,”
Chen Daoxuan took a deep breath.” We just need to see if there are any large transport ships in the rewards of the Qianyuan Sword Sect.”
Zhang Xuanling looked at Chen Daoxuan deeply.
Half a month later.
A spirit ship broke through the sky and flew towards the giant spirit island where the Qian Yuan Sword Sect was located.
“Brother Zhang’s Windwing Spirit Ship is truly incomparably fast. It’s actually twice as fast as my Zhou Family’s Spirit Void Battleship!”
Seeing that the Qian Yuan Sword Sect was already in sight, Zhou Mubai sighed.
“Brother Zhou is envious of me, but I’m also envious of your Zhou family.”
Zhang Xuanling smiled and shook his head.” No matter how good my Wind-Winged Spirit Ship is, I only have this one. Unlike your Zhou Family, who not only has more than a hundred Spirit Void Battleships, but also has mastered the refining method of Spirit Void Battleships.”
“Look, the Universal Yin-Yang Space Lock Formation!”
The Fire Spirit Daoist pointed at the countless islands outside the huge Spiritual Island.
Everyone knew that each island represented a disciple of the Qian Yuan Sword Sect.
“The outer circle is for the outer disciples, the middle is for the inner disciples, and the closest to the giant island is for the personal disciples.”
Daoist Fire Spirit leaned against the railing and introduced the place as if he was counting his family’s treasures.
Chen Daoxuan looked in the direction of his finger.
Outside the giant Spiritual Island, there were many large islands that were comparable to or even larger than the Spiritual Shell Island.
These large islands were the dojos of the direct disciples of the Qian Yuan Sword Sect.
It seemed that Fairy Chi Yao and Fairy Yue ‘e’s dojos were on these giant islands.
Chen Daoxuan said silently.
At this moment.
He finally knew how powerful the Qianyuan Sword Sect was.
Not to mention the huge spiritual island in the center.
Just the countless large islands in the surroundings showed how strong the strength of the Qian Yuan Sword Sect was!
Each of those large islands represented a cultivator whose combat strength far exceeded that of his peers.
Not to mention the top power of the Qian Yuan Sword Sect.
Just these personal disciples were a terrifying force that could suppress the Infinite Star Sea.
One had to know.
There was no hard and fast rule for the personal disciples of the Qian Yuan
Sword Sect.
Among them were Foundation Establishment cultivators, Golden Core cultivators, and even Nascent Soul cultivators.
The status of the pro-disciples of the Qian Yuan Sword Sect was extremely high. Generally speaking, their status was equivalent to that of ordinary elders.
Moreover, as the personal disciple’s cultivation increased, his status would also increase.
If a pro-disciple advanced to the Nascent Soul Stage, he could even automatically obtain the inheritance of the next sect master of the Qianyuan Sword Sect.
Of course.
There was a special situation here.
For example, some personal disciples had not reached the Nascent Soul Realm yet and had already obtained the inheritance rights of the sect master of the Heaven Essence Sword Sect.
These cultivators were all heaven-defying and had unlimited potential.
Fairy Chi Yao was one of them.
Chen Daoxuan had comprehended sword essence at the Qi Refining Stage.
But unfortunately, the sword essence he comprehended was only a branch of the water element sword essence, so its potential was limited.
He was not like the previous Sea-calming Palace Master, who had just comprehended the sword essence and had already comprehended the space sword essence of the spacetime sword essence. He was known as the most talented and talented cultivator in the history of the Qian Yuan Sword Sect.
The spirit ship stopped outside the huge island.
It was not that Zhang Xuanling was willing to stop, but that there was no way ahead.
The space in front of them had been completely sealed by the Universal Yin-Yang Space Lock Formation.
The space within this formation was ten times more solid than the outside world.
Not only that.
Everyone discovered that there was an invisible spatial barrier in front of them, blocking their way.
The spirit ship floated outside the spatial barrier. Chen Daoxuan could not help but touch the spatial barrier. It was like a transparent wall that completely isolated the inner and outer space.
“This kind of spatial barrier is very common in the Qian Yuan Sword Sect.”
The Fire Spirit Daoist explained,” Each island of the Qian Yuan Sword Sect is actually an independent grotto-heaven. Generally, without the permission and invitation of the owner of the grotto-heaven, it is difficult for outsiders to enter.”
“This is too exaggerated!”
“Yes, I am.”
Zhou Mubai nodded in agreement.
As they talked.
A spatial door suddenly opened.
Chen Daoxuan only felt a stream of pure spiritual energy that he had never heard of before surging out of the Heavenly Abode.
“Everyone! Let’s go in!”
Zhang Xuanling said solemnly..
