Elder Lie Yan has transford into Daoist Master Roaring Blaze, but this change is not just a re title shift; it signifies an impending upheaval in the entire Endless Sea of Sand.
Initially, Twin Success Valley, a large sect, was suppressed by the Flying Swan Sect because they wanted to cultivate their own Gold Core Daoist Master. Later, they were annihilated by the Flying Swan Sect when they attempted to seize the Heavenly Rainfall.
Similarly, Guang ZhiDaoist Master of Forest Spring Watch grasped the opportunity during that chaotic period to form his own core.
Flying Swan Sect repeatedly pressured and plotted against Guang ZhiDaoist Master, but he, being decisive and intelligent, managed to escape their sches with the help of Qi Family's Gold Core Daoist Master.
Then, coincidentally, the chaos of the sand monster erupted, and the Flying Swan Sect had no choice but to compromise and recognize Guang ZhiDaoist Master's position.
Flying Swan Sect made peace with Qi Family and hired Guang ZhiDaoist Master to participate in the conflict, eventually pacifying the sand monster upheaval.
Unexpectedly, the Elder Lie Yan of Earthfire Sect took advantage of the Flying Swan Sect's distractions and successfully ford his core at this opportune mont.
Elder Lie Yan of Earthfire Sect was already renowned, known as a late-stage Foundation Building cultivator with significant fa in the Endless Sea of Sand. However, nobody expected that he would one day beco a Gold Core Daoist Master.
In reality, so senior mbers of the Flying Swan Sect had seen him before and evaluated his potential, doubting his prospects on the path of cultivation.
Although Earthfire Sect had considerable influence, it was ultimately a Foundation Building sect. Due to the flaws in their cultivation techniques and limited resources, reaching the late stage of Foundation Building was already their limit. His potential was nearly exhausted, leaving little room for further advancent.
In fact, throughout Earthfire Sect's history, there were many geniuses even more astonishing than Elder Lie Yan. However, due to the flaws in their techniques, they were unable to form their cores and remained trapped in the Foundation Building stage for their entire lives.
Elder Lie Yan's successful core formation seed to prove that the Gold Core Daoist Masters of Flying Swan Sect had indeed misjudged him.
Having served as the Taiyi Sect Master for many years, ng Zhang possessed detailed information about the surrounding cultivation forces.
He had so understanding of Earthfire Sect, a trading partner for many years.
ng Zhang could not have anticipated that Elder Lie Yan would suddenly beco Daoist Master Roaring Blaze at this particular ti.
Considering the collusion between Earthfire Sect and Fire Cloud Sect, ng Zhang couldn't help but suspect that Daoist Master Roaring Blaze's successful core formation was due to assistance from Fire Cloud Sect.
Fire Cloud Sect, an ancient Gold Core sect, had a heritage even longer than that of the Flying Swan Sect. Such a major sect might possess secret legacies capable of helping others form their cores.
If Daoist Master Roaring Blaze indeed relied on Fire Cloud Sect to succeed in forming his core, then the relationship between the two sects was not as simple as it seed. The intricacies of the situation felt overwhelming.
As for the plan to use evidence to threaten Earthfire Sect, ng Zhang had long abandoned it as futile. Earthfire Sect was now a Gold Core sect; any attempt to intimidate them would be courting disaster.
Even if news of their collusion with Fire Cloud Sect were leaked, Earthfire Sect had nothing to worry about. Flying Swan Sect couldn't even handle Guang ZhiDaoist Master, let alone Daoist Master Roaring Blaze.
With the core formation of Daoist Master Roaring Blaze, the situation in the Endless Sea of Sand had truly beco complex.
In recent years, a series of events indicated that the once dominant Flying Swan Sect was gradually losing control over the Endless Sea of Sand's situation.
Shortly after quelling the chaos caused by the sand monsters, Guang ZhiDaoist Master of Forest Spring Watch departed from the territory of Flying Swan Sect and returned to Forest Spring Watch.
During his journey back, it is said that Guang ZhiDaoist Master passed by Earthfire Sect.
Daoist Master Roaring Blaze personally received Guang ZhiDaoist Master, and they engaged in deep discussions and enjoyed each other's company.
Moreover, with the resolution of the sand monster incident, the alliance between Qi Family and Flying Swan Sect naturally dissolved.
Before long, the two factions resud their confrontational state.
If Forest Spring Watch, Earthfire Sect, and Qi Family could unite, Flying Swan Sect would be at a disadvantage, particularly on the level of Gold Core Daoist Masters, as they would only have three compared to the combined strength of the other three factions.
During the sand monster incident, not only did Flying Swan Sect suffer heavy losses as a vassal, but many of its subordinate forces were completely annihilated. Even Flying Swan Sect itself paid a heavy price in casualties.
ng Zhang closely monitored the situation in the Endless Sea of Sand after the chaos, continuously gathering intelligence from various sources.
The current situation in the Endless Sea of Sand was one of four opposing poles.
If the three factions, Forest Spring Watch, Earthfire Sect, and Qi Family, joined forces, there was a real possibility of bringing down Flying Swan Sect.
Taiyi Sect, as one of the Foundation Building sects in the Endless Sea of Sand, was destined to be swept up in the coming storm. If the four factions engaged in a large-scale conflict, Taiyi Sect would undoubtedly be involved.
At that ti, ng Zhang and Taiyi Sect would face a dilemma of how to proceed.
Whenever he thought about this issue, ng Zhang felt a headache.
If the response was mishandled and the faction aligned with incorrectly, it could indeed lead to the catastrophe of annihilation.
ng Zhang acknowledged his lack of wisdom and convened the high-ranking mbers of Taiyi Sect for multiple discussions, but they couldn't co up with a good solution.
As a vassal of Forest Spring Watch, Taiyi Sect should have been on the sa side as them. However, ng Zhang had no loyalty or trust towards Forest Spring Watch and was unwilling to place the fate of Taiyi Sect in their hands.
Since the internal discussions yielded no conclusive results, ng Zhang decided to seek the advice of external experts.
Forest Mountain School was a staunch supporter of Forest Spring Watch, so it wasn't a viable option. Gu Tanghai of Shi Family was a cunning old fox, and he couldn't be trusted either.
Qiaoshou Sect, as Taiyi Sect's ally, had maintained a good relationship over the years. Aunt Jin was also a seasoned and crafty individual.
ng Zhang thought it might be a good idea to visit her and hear her opinion.
With this in mind, ng Zhang left Taiyi Sect and headed to Qiaoshou Sect.
Upon arriving at Qiaoshou Sect, he was led to the sect's main hall and easily t Aunt Jin and Jin Qigu.
Jin Qiao'er was still the sa as before, always accompanying the two of them. Despite reaching the Refining Qi Late stage, she remained as lively and innocent as a child.
As soon as she saw ng Zhang, she clamored to play with Zhui Dian (Chasing Lightning) and Liu Li (Colored Glaze).
ng Zhang put the two little ones into the spirit beast bag when he went out and carried them with him.
After years of evolution and ample resource supply, the two little ones had made significant progress.
They both had at least the combat power of the Refining Qi Middle stage and had beco smarter and more human-like, making remarkable progress in their respective areas of expertise.
Zhui Dian (Chasing Lightning) was even faster now, as not even an ordinary Foundation Building cultivator could catch up to him.
Liu Li (Colored Glaze) had awakened talents in illusion techniques and could release so simple illusions. Mischievous by nature, she often used these illusions to play tricks on the new disciples of Taiyi Sect.
ng Zhang released the two little ones from the spirit beast bag.
When they saw Jin Qiao'er, although it had been many years, they still rembered this little girl who used to give them red fruits to eat.
Jin Qiao'er cheered and imdiately beca close friends with the two little ones.
They all played and had fun together, leaving the main hall and leaving only ng Zhang, Aunt Jin, and Jin Qigu behind.
