Chapter 150: Chapter 149: The Secret of the Thick Earth
Translator: 549690339
“Do you know why, seven years ago, I warned you to avoid Foundation Establishment Masters with the character ‘mountain’ in their dharma titles if you ever come across them?”
When He Song and Wei Fan sat down with solemn expressions, they were ready to listen carefully to what Meng Guan had to say about it.
At the moment Meng Guan’s voice sounded, it made the two exchange glances.
This matter.
He Song had also thought about it before.
But at that time, the information was too limited, and there was no way to guess.
Therefore, after half a day of pondering, he had to put it aside and think about it later.
But now.
Listening to Meng Guan’s words, was there really a secret hidden in this matter?
With a puzzled look in his eyes, He Song looked at Meng Guan.
Next to him, Wei Fan, who had just broken through the Foundation Establishment and consolidated his cultivation, also looked at Meng Guan at this moment.
Seeing that both of them were looking at him, Meng Guan realized that neither of them knew the reason for this matter yet.
“This matter has its roots in the main peak of the Thick Earth Sect.”
“The main peak of the Thick Earth Sect is the high mountain in the center of the sect, but in fact, it is not a mountain, but a spirit artifact, a high-quality spirit artifact – the Mountain Seal!”
“It is a high-quality spirit artifact refined by a Nascent Soul Realm Ancestor! When controlled by a Yuanying Ancestor, it can kill a Nascent Soul, and when controlled by a Golden Elixir Master, it has the power to kill a Golden Elixir.”
“This is one of the foundations that have allowed the Thick Earth Sect to stand for tens of thousands of years, and it is also the location of the sect’s treasury.”
As Meng Guan spoke, he looked at the two of them, but he didn’t see any surprise in their eyes.
They had already heard about this matter from Ping’er seven years ago.
Now that Meng Guan mentioned it again, it made the two of them somewhat disinterested.
Seeing this, Meng Guan knew that he had said something unnecessary and quickly continued.
“More than seven thousand years ago, the Nascent Soul Realm Ancestor of the Thick Earth Sect who refined the Mountain Seal passed away, and the high-quality spirit artifact, the Mountain Seal, became a symbol of the Thick Earth Sect Leader.”
“Many generations have passed since that Ancestor with the Nascent Soul Realm appeared. After his passing, the position of the Sect Leader has always been under the control of his descendants.”
“The Ancestor’s dharma title was Lianshan, and most of his descendants took the character ‘mountain’ in their dharma titles.”
“For example, Master Yuan Shan, Master Cheng Shan…”
“Thus, the Mountain Seal has been passed down from generation to generation, and now it is controlled by the current Sect Leader, Master Fa
Xuan.”
At this point, Meng Guan stopped talking and looked at the two people in front of him.
A trace of doubt flashed across He Song’s face.
Ancestor Lianshan.
Master Yuan Shan.
Master Cheng Shan.
The character “mountain” was included in their dharma titles.
At first glance, these dharma titles seemed to belong to the same family.
But the dharma title of Master Fa Xuan… didn’t seem to resemble those of the mountain family, did it?
Wasn’t it said that the position of Sect Leader of the Thick Earth Sect would always be held by the descendants of Ancestor Lianshan? How did it suddenly change when it came to Fa Xuan?
He Song was puzzled.
At the side.
Wei Fan’s face was also filled with doubt.
“You’re not mistaken. Master Fa Xuan is indeed not a descendant of that Nascent Soul Realm Ancestor. ”
“With the resources of the Thick Earth Sect, they can only cultivate at most one Golden Elixir Master in each generation to inherit the tradition and suppress the sect.”
“More than a hundred years ago, when the previous Sect Leader passed away, the Thick Earth Sect used all its resources to cultivate a Golden Elixir Master, Master Yan Shan.”
“In theory, Master Yan Shan should be the Sect Leader of the Thick Earth Sect in the future.”
“But it’s hard to predict the will of heaven. During Master Yan Shan’s seclusive cultivation for a breakthrough, Master Fa Xuan, with great perseverance, wisdom, and fortune, managed to advance from a Foundation Establishment Master to a Golden Elixir Master without the support of the sect.”
“By the time Master Yan Shan broke through, Master Fa Xuan had already taken control of the sect and seized the position of Sect Leader.”
“Since then. there have been two Golden Elixir Masters in the Thick Earth Sect
suppressing the sect, and their prestige is unparalleled.”
As Meng Guan spoke, his face turned a little flushed, and even his voice grew a little louder.
It seemed as if the scene of the two Masters fighting was right in front of him, and he witnessed it with his own eyes.
He Song remained calm, but he was moved in his heart.
Master Yan Shan.
Master Fa Xuan.
Two Golden Elixir Masters in one sect.
The Thick Earth Sect… seemed to be much stronger than he had guessed.
However, would Master Yan Shan really give up his position as Sect Leader and hand it over to Master Fa Xuan?
He Song didn’t quite believe it.
Both of them were Golden Elixir Masters. In theory, the position of Sect Leader should have been reserved for Master Yan Shan.
Master Fa Xuan merely took advantage of Master Yan Shan’s breakthrough and used his Golden Elixir strength to suppress the sect, seizing the position of Sect Leader in the process.
If they were to get serious, there must be a deadly battle between the two.
But from what he saw now, Master Fa Xuan’s position as Sect Leader seemed quite stable, and the Thick Earth Sect had not experienced any violent disputes.
At most, they were just reminded to avoid the Masters with the character “mountain” in their dharma titles as much as possible.
What was going on?
With doubts, He Song looked at Meng Guan.
He knew that since Meng Guan had said so much, he would definitely continue to speak.
After calming down a bit.
Meng Guan looked at his two friends who were patiently waiting for him to continue speaking. Feeling a little embarrassed, Meng Guan hurriedly continued.
“For thousands of years, descendants of that Nascent Soul Realm Ancestor have always taken the position of Sect Leader in Thick Earth Sect. Now that something unexpected has happened, it has naturally aroused dissatisfaction among them.”
“In the past, they simply had no Golden Elixir Masters who could contend with Master Fa Xuan, so they had no choice but to accept the situation.”
“But when Master Yan Shan broke through and came out of seclusion, a fierce battle ensued.”
“Master Qingyue did not disclose the details to me but made it clear that the sect has now been divided into two factions.”
“One faction is led by Master Yan Shan and consists mostly of the descendants of that Nascent Soul Realm Ancestor.”
“The other faction is led by Master Fa Xuan and mostly includes the newly promoted Foundation Establishment cultivators of the past hundred years.”
“Ahem, in the beginning, both of you were categorized into Master Fa Xuan’s faction. Because of this, I specifically warned you both to avoid encountering
Masters with mountain characters in their dharma titles as much as possible.”
“Although they won’t make things difficult for you, they will generally not show you a friendly face.”
In the end, an embarrassed expression flashed across Meng Guan’s face.
At first.
He had followed Master Qingyue to the Thick Earth Sect in a daze and met with Master Fa Xuan.
Unbeknownst to him.
This meeting had put him, as well as He Song and Wei Fan, in Master Fa Xuan’s faction.
Master Fa Xuan giving them the two Foundation Establishment Elixirs.
It was probably done to win them over.
He accepted them.
Of course, that also meant agreeing to it.
Now that Wei Fan had also broken through the Foundation Establishment, he had to tell them everything in its entirety and not conceal anything anymore.
Of course, hiding this matter was not because he had any ulterior motives.
It was simply because their cultivation levels had been too low before, so there was no need to mention it.
Now, Wei Fan had broken through the Foundation Establishment and was about to meet Master Fa Xuan. It was better to speak up so that He Song wouldn’t think he had any ulterior motives..
