Chapter 96: This Phenonon Couldn't Be Caused by Shen Mo
Shen Mo excitedly flew in the air for a while before slowly descending.
His face still couldn't hide his joy.
"A cultivator in the Core Formation Realm has a lifespan of five hundred years, far stronger than the two hundred years of a Foundation Establishnt cultivator."
"From now on, I'll be a significant figure in Xuanjiang Prefecture."
Shen Mo was very clear.
Although he was just at the entry-level of the Core Formation Realm, if he used all his trump cards, he could easily crush a cultivator at the middle level of the Core Formation Realm.
Even when facing a cultivator at the major accomplishnt level of the Core Formation Realm, he would at least have a chance to escape.
"However, the commotion caused by my breakthrough was too great. I'm guessing soone is already on their way here. I need to leave quickly."
Shen Mo threw a few thunder crystals to the Great Rock Python before turning into a stream of light and quickly leaving.
His guess was correct.
Such a huge commotion in the Qingcang Mountains imdiately attracted the attention of nearby cultivators.
As soon as he left, several figures arrived from all directions.
Without exception, they were all cultivators in the Core Formation Realm.
The first to arrive were naturally the cultivators from Qingxuan Sect.
Leading them was none other than Murong Yue.
This beautiful woman in a light purple palace dress frowned as she surveyed the surroundings.
Song Chaofeng followed behind her. Seeing the strange situation, he was also greatly astonished.
The area still had residual pure Five Elents spiritual energy.
Interacting and counteracting, intertwined without end.
The dense Wood spiritual energy in the Qingcang Mountains was thus affected, becoming very chaotic.
Those with Wood spiritual roots would feel very uncomfortable in this environnt.
Moreover, judging by the concentration of these residual Five Elents spiritual energies, it would probably take at least three to five days to dissipate.
"Master, it looks like soone broke through to the Core Formation Realm and triggered the Five Elents phenonon, but the range is just too vast." Song Chaofeng whispered.
Murong Yue nodded slightly.
She thought so too.
A typical Core Formation cultivator, condensing an ordinary Golden Core, would also trigger such a Five Elents phenonon.
But the affected range would be no more than ten zhang (approx. 33 feet).
Even with a Flawless Golden Core, the affected range would be around 50 feet.
When Murong Yue condensed her Perfect Golden Core, the phenonon affected a range of 100 feet.
On that day, Core Formation cultivators near the Qingcang Mountains rushed over from all directions to witness it.
But now, the phenonon here had a range of over 330 feet!
And this was the phenonon as it was dissipating.
It was hard to imagine just how vast the range was at the mont the unknown cultivator broke through to the Core Formation Realm!
This was too astonishing!
Swish, swish, swish.
Several more figures arrived.
They were elders from Feishuang Sect and Lingxi Sect.
They looked at Murong Yue deeply and cupped their hands in greeting.
Even though it had only been a day since Qingxuan Sect conquered Heavy Weapon Sect.
This news had already spread like a hurricane.
The sects around the Qingcang Mountains naturally knew it first.
Among the Core Formation cultivators of Feishuang Sect was a woman with delicate features and fair skin.
She was none other than Pang Ziyu, the daughter of Pang Longxiang, the sect leader of Feishuang Sect.
Pang Ziyu looked around carefully and said in a deep voice, "It should be an unknown Core Formation cultivator who broke through here, but the commotion is just too big."
"A person like this shouldn't be a nobody; they should be soone notable."
The elder of Feishuang Sect beside her said in a low voice, "It might be one of the Six Supres of Xuanjiang, choosing to break through here instead of in the sect."
Pang Ziyu said calmly, "It's six supres now. I always remind you, don't forget Shen Mo."
"Yes, yes, yes, I was careless." The elder, even though his cultivation was higher than Pang Ziyu's, nodded repeatedly as if he had been severely reprimanded.
"Then do you think it could be Shen Mo?" the elder asked.
Pang Ziyu shook her head firmly, "It couldn't be him. Even if Shen Mo condensed a Perfect Golden Core, he couldn't possibly trigger such a phenonon."
"This kind of phenonon must be caused by soone with a Heaven-grade constitution, cultivating Heaven-grade techniques, and condensing a Perfect Golden Core."
"Such a Golden Core is even above the Perfect Golden Core."
The elder nodded repeatedly, agreeing with her view.
Pang Ziyu suddenly looked at Murong Yue, "Sect Master Murong, what do you think?"
Murong Yue glanced at her and said calmly, "I think the sa."
Pang Ziyu continued, "Sect Master Murong, Qingxuan Sect annexed Heavy Weapon Sect without any consideration. This might provoke Thunder Fire Sect. If they find out, they will likely be furious."
"You don't need to worry about that," Murong Yue said, not wanting to continue the conversation. She turned and left.
Pang Ziyu's expression didn't change.
After Murong Yue and her people left, her face turned cold.
"I didn't expect that both my father and I overestimated Heavy Weapon Sect. They turned out to be so incompetent, losing everything in just a month."
"Find out what happened in Heavy Weapon Sect. Who was stirring things up from the inside!"
"Understood."
...
The annexation of Heavy Weapon Sect by Qingxuan Sect not only reached the ears of Lingxi Sect, Feishuang Sect, and Storm Rain Sect nearby.
It also spread rapidly through word of mouth, becoming widely known throughout Xuanjiang Prefecture within just ten days.
Since the end of the Hundred Sects Grand Ceremony, after the prefecture lord announced the sect ranking system, there had been an undercurrent in Xuanjiang Prefecture.
There were occasional frictions between the various sects.
But it hadn't yet escalated to open conflicts and large-scale annexations.
The annexation of Heavy Weapon Sect by Qingxuan Sect seed to ignite a long-brewing powder keg.
Sects with old grudges imdiately declared war.
Even those who preferred to remain neutral started targeting smaller sects.
Big fish ate small fish, and small fish ate shrimp.
Once the lid of Pandora's box was opened, it would never close again.
...
Giant River City.
This city was the prefectural capital of Xuanjiang Prefecture and the strongest seat of governnt power.
However, its prosperity was no match for Divine Sword City, placing it second.
The center of Giant River City was the prefectural governnt office.
The governnt office wasn't as grand as people might imagine; it was rather shabby.
In so places, the red lacquer had dried up and peeled off, but there were no repairs.
When commoners passed by the governnt office, they would mutter, discussing the strange new prefecture lord.
"Do you know why the governnt office looks so poor?"
"I heard that the spirit stones allocated from Yuzhou were all spent by the new prefecture lord on the barracks, not a single one left."
"Heh, this new prefecture lord is sothing else. Since taking office, he hasn't taken money for himself or repaired the governnt office, only focused on the barracks, like a general."
"You don't know? Before coming to Xuanjiang Prefecture, he worked in Lingyun Prefecture. He was a general and even led troops to flatten Jinyang Sect and other sects!"
At this mont, the sound of horse hooves suddenly rang out.
A rider, like a flash of lightning, crossed the street and arrived at the governnt office gate.
"Urgent report! Urgent report! Two second-rate sects in the southern part of Xuanjiang Prefecture have gone to war, and Qingxuan Sect has annexed Heavy Weapon Sect! Let in quickly!"
The soldier on horseback shouted loudly.
The two soldiers standing guard at the governnt office gate were shocked and hurriedly helped the rider inside.
Upon entering the governnt office, the first thing they saw was the main hall.
But the main hall was only used for major ceremonies.
The prefecture lord usually worked in the second hall behind the main hall.
At this mont, the prefecture lord was handling docunts sent from various parts of Xuanjiang Prefecture.
Beside him was a young man with a jade-like face and a sinister expression, assisting in processing various docunts.
Suddenly, the urgent report sounded from outside.
"Lord Prefecture, a sect war has broken out. In one day, Qingxuan Sect annexed Heavy Weapon Sect!"
The soldier knelt on one knee, presenting the fire-sealed letter.
The prefecture lord stood up abruptly, took the letter, but didn't open it imdiately.
"Qingxuan Sect..."
"I seem to have so impression."
"Isn't that the sect where Shen Mo, the first place winner of the Hundred Sects Grand Ceremony, belongs?"
The three soldiers below imdiately replied, "Reporting to the lord, it is indeed!"
A strange light flashed in the prefecture lord's eyes as he quickly opened the letter to examine it carefully.
