Nine Cauldrons Sect.
Half a month before Myriad Beasts Sect, Witch Sect, Immortal Alliance, and Limitless Star Palace resud hostilities, Alkaid had already received news from the Void Divine Realm.
The trade between Immortal Alliance and Limitless Star Palace took place in the Void Divine Realm.
Despite the extre caution of Lin Deng, Feng Ao, and Luo Fu—Dharma Phase Cultivators in covering up the news, Alkaid, by relying on the Formless Secret Technique of Heavenly Dao, still learned the true nature of their sche.
He didn't inform anyone else of this news, only contacting Li Hanqiu.
As expected...
This should be considered the final dress rehearsal for the last great battle of the Cangwu Great World.
...
After detailing the ssage he heard, Alkaid also felt sowhat reflective, "Limitless Star Palace actually joined forces with Immortal Alliance, sothing I did not foresee. I had thought that Limitless Star Palace sought to dominate the Cangwu Great World alone, to beco the only ruler of the Cangwu Great World."
"The power of Limitless Star Palace is indeed strong, possessing the strength to tower above all Sects, but they also have deeper considerations."
Li Hanqiu vaguely realized the key point, "That would be the Northern Sea Star."
"Northern Sea Star?"
Alkaid's heart stirred, quickly realizing sothing.
Limitless Star Palace was strong in this Cangwu Great World, but the true top figures of the Cangwu Great World were not concentrated here. After completing their counterattack against the Moon Demon Empire's holand and defeating the invasion of the Moon Demon Empire, they went to the more prosperous and powerful Northern Sea Star.
Counting the ti, this was also sothing that happened eighty years ago.
Eighty years!
Who knew how well this batch of people developed on the Northern Sea Star.
And who knew which faction was the strongest now.
Limitless Star Palace also couldn't assure that if they truly exterminated one faction to the last, when the people of the Northern Sea Star arrived, they wouldn't settle scores co autumn.
It was precisely for this reason that the so-called Golden Temple, which claid to occupy 311 Spiritual Power nodes and lacked impressive experts and Warships, with conventional forces so weak they were inferior to so large Sects, was still alive and well to this day.
On the contrary, powers like Artifact Sect, Pill Sect, Yang Divine Sect, and Divine Demons Palace had gradually faded into obscurity.
Artifact Sect was slightly better off, as only the forces in the Cangwu Realm were almost annihilated; it was said that so had survived.
But Pill Sect, Yang Divine Sect, and Divine Demons Palace...
It was almost tantamount to being completely obliterated, completely withdrawing from the history of both Cangwu Great World and Northern Sea Star.
"Therefore, Limitless Star Palace needs to attract a group of allies, at least... not to isolate themselves too much."
As Li Hanqiu spoke, he glanced at Alkaid, "We should do the sa."
Alkaid, upon hearing this, nodded in understanding.
He also ca to realize why top Immortal Sects, despite constant strife, always maintained a certain restraint and never truly burned bridges with one another.
He had thought this was because of the deterrent effect of the Golden Core, but now it seed...
The situation in the Northern Sea Star was also a factor they had to seriously consider.
"Then we'll proceed as we previously discussed, with Limitless Star Palace wooing Immortal Alliance and Supre Yin Sect, while we draw in Myriad Beasts Sect, Golden Temple, and Heavenly Law Pavilion," Alkaid said.
"Right, our next focus is to retake the Hundred Thousand Mountains, to develop them. It's not advisable to confront Limitless Star Palace too early, therefore, we must find sothing for Limitless Star Palace to deal with..."
Li Hanqiu gestured with an open hand, projecting the distribution of force in the Cangwu Great World as a light shadow, "We'll need to start with the Golden Temple!"
"The Golden Temple!?"
"Correct, we need to find a way to reconcile Holy Fire Sect with the Golden Temple, stabilize the situation in Black Fla Continent, and even achieve the unification of the Black Fla Continent!"
Li Hanqiu deliberated, "I believe that whether for the Golden Temple or for the Holy Fire Sect, they would be very happy to see this happen, after all… Black Fla Continent has been war-torn for nearly a hundred years. All Sects detest this state of chaos and hope to break free from war soon. Once Black Fla Continent can escape from war and focus on developnt, with their nurous Spiritual Power nodes, in the future, the Spirit Stone production value of the Golden Temple could even surge to one billion!"
"The Spiritual Power nodes of Black Fla Continent..."
Alkaid had collected quite a bit of information from the Void Divine Realm and was already aware that among the five continents of the Cangwu Great World, Black Fla Continent had the most Spiritual Power nodes.
If the production capacity of these Spiritual Power nodes was truly unleashed...
All Sects within the Black Fla Continent would witness rapid developnt.
"The Limitless Star Palace probably doesn't want to see a peacefully developing Black Fla Continent; its potential... is too great! If the nurous Spiritual Power nodes weren't abandoned or seized due to war but were all activated instead, the Black Fla Continent would visibly prosper. Coupled with the presence of powers like the Golden Temple, which is at the level of the Six Great Immortal Sects, once it unites the Black Fla Continent..."
Alkaid said this much and then stopped.
Should such a situation arise, the threat posed by the Golden Temple could be even more significant than that posed by the Nine Cauldrons Sect.
"Yes, so, they must stop it."
Li Hanqiu said as he pointed to a power displayed on the virtual map ahead.
"The Taiyi Sect."
Alkaid uttered a sound.
"Correct."
Li Hanqiu nodded, "This is a nail that the Limitless Star Palace has left in the Black Fla Continent. For a hundred years, the Taiyi Sect has been rapidly developing under the cultivation of the Limitless Star Palace. They aim to quietly infiltrate and annex the neighboring forces to strengthen themselves. The Golden Temple and the Holy Fire Sect coming to an understanding will not be sothing the Limitless Star Palace can just sit by and watch. They will move their chess piece, the Taiyi Sect... but this chess piece is quite special."
"Special!?"
"Right, a discord occurred within the Limitless Star Palace decades ago, resulting in a dispute between the modernists and the traditionalists. In the end, a representative of the traditionalists ca to take charge of the Taiyi Sect, and he is the current Sect Leader Hu Xi. In other words, the Taiyi Sect and the Limitless Star Palace are actually one entity, not a local power they supported."
Li Hanqiu paused in his speech at this point, "Over the years, this representative of the traditionalists has been trying to swallow the Black Fla Continent, to occupy this land abundant in Spiritual Power, to prove the capabilities their lineage possesses. The Limitless Star Palace starting a war with the Black Feather Sect in the Black Fla Continent was really to clear the path for the Taiyi Sect. Currently, as the Limitless Star Palace is retreating from the Black Fla Continent to suppress us, it has already caused dissatisfaction within the Taiyi Sect. If we allow the reconciliation between the Golden Temple and the Holy Fire Sect to go unchallenged, it will be even harder for such an external power as the Taiyi Sect to find room to grow."
"Thus, for the developnt of the Taiyi Sect, they must stop the reconciliation between the Golden Temple and the Holy Fire Sect. They must plunge the Black Fla Continent back into war and prevent them from having the opportunity to develop their strength,"
Alkaid said.
"Right, this is about the conflict of interests and values between the traditionalists and the modernists. If they fail, from this point on, the traditionalists won't have any say in the Limitless Star Palace. If they also lose the territory of the Taiyi Sect, the whole Limitless Star Palace will beco the domain of the modernists," explained Li Hanqiu, pondering for a mont. Considering that Alkaid would sooner or later find out when he turned his attention to the Taiyi Sect, he added, "It is said that the Sect Leader also has another identity; he is a descendant of Hu Daoyan, the previous Supre Elder who went to the Northern Sea Star for the Limitless Star Palace!"
"The Supre Elder who went to the Northern Sea Star!?"
"Yes."
Li Hanqiu nodded, "Therefore, this person is also likely doing everything possible to achieve so accomplishnt when the two sides reconnect. After all... a Supre Elder wouldn't only have such a single descendant."
"The situation in the Black Fla Continent... is indeed quite complicated," affird Alkaid.
"This continent, abundant in Spiritual Power nodes, has always been a battleground for the major Sects. The Supre Yin Sect and the Heavenly Law Pavilion have also made arrangents on the Black Fla Continent. However, with the presence of an elite Immortal Sect like the Golden Temple here, the forces they supported are far from reaching the extent of the Taiyi Sect. They are even inferior to the Black Feather Sect and can hardly affect the real situation on the Black Fla Continent," said Li Hanqiu as he looked at Alkaid. "The confidence I have in convincing the Golden Temple and the Holy Fire Sect cos from the Spirit Gathering Array improvent technology we possess. If we can step forward and help them construct improved Spirit Gathering Arrays to double the production capacity of all their Spiritual Power nodes—even if they are well aware of our true intentions—they absolutely won't be able to refuse this temptation."
Finally, he added, "Of course, in helping them improve the Spirit Gathering Arrays, they must give you the Spirit Stones they owe you, not a single one less. It all depends on whether you agree or not."
"Of course," Alkaid nodded slightly, "I can even sell the Separation Rings, let alone these improvents to the Spirit Gathering Arrays. Just negotiate a good price for , True Person. No matter how much profit you ultimately secure, I only need half of my share."
"Haha, then that's settled. Don't worry, I won't disappoint you. The Golden Temple needs no ntion. The Holy Fire Sect is also an ancient power with many Spiritual Power nodes; the gains definitely won't be ager," Li Hanqiu said with a laugh, "Moreover, improving the Spirit Gathering Arrays isn't an overnight job. During this period, our cooperation with the Golden Temple will inevitably beco close. When the ti is right, we can bring out the Separation Rings and forming an alliance led by our Nine Cauldrons Sect will naturally fall into place."
"Then we are counting on True Person Li to make the trip in person," Alkaid agreed.
If the Golden Temple and the Holy Fire Sect start clashing with the Taiyi Sect, the Limitless Star Palace, to protect their interests in the Black Fla Continent, would inevitably have to support the Taiyi Sect.
At that ti, they would have much less leeway to target the Nine Cauldrons Sect.
With so luck, the Nine Cauldrons Sect could continue to develop for another decade or two.
The Nine Cauldrons Sect, already in a phase of rapid growth, would see the first batch of cultivators who practiced the Mysterious Origin Creation Technique mature within another decade or two.
Alkaid's own cultivation could also reach a new level.
By then...
The Nine Cauldrons Sect would not only possess elite high-level combat power, Patrol Heaven Warships, and nurous Battle Courtyards but also have the strength to confront and even defeat the Limitless Star Palace head-on.
Together with allies from the Black Fla Continent, such as the Golden Temple and the Holy Fire Sect...
Even if the Immortal Alliance and the Supre Yin Sect wanted to make a move, they would have to carefully consider the consequences.
