Chapter 151: Chapter 150: Conflict Between Two Factions
Translator: 549690339
Moreover, when Wei Fan first attempted the Foundation Establishment, the Foundation Establishment Elixir he used indeed came from the hands of Master Fa Xuan.
Even if it was with the purpose of courting Meng Guan.
But since the offer came in generosity, he needed to remember this kindness as well.
Now, Wei Fan has successfully broken through to the Foundation Establishment Realm.
He must go to see Master Fa Xuan.
It is necessary to understand these matters before meeting him.
As a Foundation Establishment Master who already bears the mark of Master Fa Xuan’s faction, if he was to perform actions favoring Master Yan Shan’s faction… It probably wouldn’t end well.
At his side,
After hearing Meng Guan’s description, a flash of realization passed through He Song’s eyes.
No wonder Master Qingy Yue rushed to sway Meng Guan immediately after his Foundation Establishment.
No wonder Master Qingy Yue was intercepted by Master Yuan Shan when he was leading Meng Guan back to the sect.
No wonder Master Qingy Yue, without any respectful face, left directly with the spirit boat when intercepted by Master Yuan Shan.
No wonder Master Fa Xuan generously gave two Foundation Establishment Elixirs to win over Meng Guan, as a Foundation Establishment Master.
No wonder…
They are short of manpower.
The conflict between Master Fa Xuan and Master Yan Shan has already entered a stable period.
Without any significant clashes seen, the Thick Earth Sect seemed peaceful on the surface.
But the more power gathered around him, the greater the chances of success.
A Foundation Establishment Master,
They are worth courting.
As a Golden Elixir Master, recruiting some Foundation Establishment Masters as followers is pretty standard.
But…
How come he suddenly got involved in the sect’s internal struggle without any indication?
Moreover, it seemed that his side appeared more like the villains.
Suppressed the whole sect with his Golden Elixir strength while Master Yan Shan was going through the Golden Elixir breakthrough, forcibly seizing the position of Sect Leader and took control of the entire Thick Earth Sect.
Such actions are usually common with villains, aren’t they?
He Song could even predict the future development of the situation.
When the time comes and Master Yan Shan’s strength is sufficient, Master Yan Shan, who has more support, will naturally try various means to regain the Sect Leader’s position.
Suppose Master Fa Xuan fails to hold on.
Won’t someone like him who has been tagged as a follower of Master Fa Xuan be immediately made a scapegoat?
With this thought flashing through his mind, He Song felt a chill running down his back, and a cold sweat broke out instantly.
It seems that he couldn’t afford to stay in the Thick Earth Sect.
Should he run now?
Or should he wait a while longer to run? Before running,
Should he bring his two friends along?
However, would having two Foundation Establishment Masters fleeing along make them a big target?
In the blink of an eye, countless escape plans had emerged in He Song’s mind.
However,
After thinking it over carefully, He Song’s emotions gradually calmed down.
He could stay in the Thick Earth Sect for the time being.
He was just a little Qi Refining cultivator now.
Although he had two friends in the Foundation Establishment Realm, in the Cultivation World, personal strength still came first.
As a small Qi Refining cultivator, as long as he minds his own business and avoids those Foundation Establishment Masters with “mountain” in their dharma title, he shouldn’t face any danger.
Even if he provokes them, given the current peaceful atmosphere within the Thick Earth Sect, there shouldn’t be any big trouble.
Suppose things turned out exactly as he anticipated, and the struggle between Master Yan Shan and Master Fa Xuan became endless, finally leading to Master Fa Xuan’s defeat and escape.
That would still take a considerable amount of time.
For a Golden Elixir Master,
A few years, a few decades, or even a hundred years, are simply a brief period.
And for him?
He only needs a dozen more years to achieve his breakthrough to the Foundation Establishment Realm.
By the time he completes Foundation Establishment and absorbs all the knowledge within the Thick Earth Sect, it shouldn’t take too long.
If it goes like this,
By the time the conflict between the two sides heats up,
He Song would have achieved his Foundation Establishment and mastered all kinds of necessary knowledge.
At that time,
He Song could leave whenever he wanted.
However, he should be more cautious in his future days at the Thick Earth Sect.
He should strive to remain low-profile.
Only in this way would he not draw too much attention.
By the time he needs to flee, he can escape before anyone notices.
His mind raced through all these thoughts.
He Song felt as though a weight was lifted off his chest.
At the same time, he couldn’t help but feel grateful that he didn’t join the Thick Earth Sect as a Formation Genius back then.
If he had indeed acted rashly and used his status as a Formation Genius to join the Thick Earth Sect, every move he made would probably have attracted attention from both factions.
An Array Path Master can’t keep a low profile like an ordinary disciple.
With an Array Path Master joining, either faction would experience significant improvement. Had he really done that,
Forget about escape.
He would surely have been under intense scrutiny from both sides.
Having felt relief, He Song gained assurance, and he also had a plan regarding the internal struggles within the Thick Earth Sect.
Next to He Song,
After hearing Meng Guan’s words, Wei Fan also showed a look of understanding at this moment.
Wei Fan was not like He Song, who thought through a great deal in a mere instant.
Wei Fan simply understood a few things.
Also, knowing that there were internal struggles within the Thick Earth Sect, he realized he had been involuntarily drawn into it.
“I understand now, we three are already on the same side as Master Fa Xuan.”
“Which means, this time upon my breakthrough to Foundation Establishment, if I go to meet Master Fa Xuan with Lao Meng…”
As he spoke, a light shone in Wei Fan’s eyes. Looking at Meng Guan, an unusual expression emerged.
Then, he turned to He Song.
He wanted to go with Meng Guan.
If Master Fa Xuan bestows two more Foundation Establishment Elixirs, or even one, He Song’s chance of Foundation Establishment would significantly increase.
He Song, like Wei Fan, has a Four Spirits Root.
Even with steady cultivation, he would get one chance for Foundation Establishment.
With the Foundation Establishment Elixir and a bit of diligence, he’ll have two opportunities for Foundation Establishment just like Wei Fan.
Two chances of Foundation Establishment, with a Foundation Establishment
Elixir available each time,
The chance of He Song’s successful Foundation Establishment would naturally increase significantly.
If He Song also breaks through into the Foundation Establishment Realm,
Then wouldn’t their small circle have three Foundation Establishment Masters?
Three Foundation Establishment Masters,
That would be an imposing force.
Whether for Master Fa Xuan’s faction or for themselves, it would be a boon.
At his side,
Seeing Wei Fan looking at He Song as well, a slight smile emerged on Meng Guan’s face.
“Alright, let’s not get too hopeful, it’s not our call, it depends on the Sect
Leader’s mood.”
“However, now that the matter is settled, let’s get going and meet the Sect
Leader.”
Signaling Wei Fan to calm down, Meng Guan rose to his feet, looking toward the main peak of the Thick Earth Sect.
There, Master Fa Xuan must have been waiting for a while..
