Infinite Save: I Cultivate Immortality Through Reincarnation - Chapter 337: Dreams Will Eventually Awaken
“Patriarch Kong said, since the Star Heaven Sect has always been searching for Realman Sun and Moon’s Dao Basis, he is naturally very willing to do them this favor and gift it to the Star Heaven Sect as a present.”
Chu Xiyao said.
“……”
Qin Qingyu’s expression was impassive, she simply remained silent.
Kong Yang was a great power in the Immortal Ascension Realm, his methods reaching to the heavens.
That he could find Realman Sun and Moon’s Dao Basis before the Star Heaven Sect did not surprise Qin Qingyu in the slightest.
She wasn’t even surprised that Kong Yang would gift Realman Sun and Moon’s Dao Basis to the Star Heaven Sect.
What truly weighed heavily on Qin Qingyu’s heart was that Kong Yang actually knew the Star Heaven Sect was searching for Realman Sun and Moon’s Dao Basis.
Gu Jiancheng wanted to comprehend Realman Sun and Moon’s Dao Basis to break through to the Immortal Ascension Realm.
This matter, even within the Star Heaven Sect itself, was only known by high-level individuals at the rank of Grand Elder or above, and the disciples of the Moon Void Sect responsible for searching for the Dao Basis.
It was a secret.
If Kong Yang knew this secret, it meant that within the current Star Heaven Sect, there might still be spies or informants from the Kongshan Sect.
As for why “still” was used, it was because although the mastermind behind the Heavenly Summit Mountain Cataclysm seventeen years ago was from the Kongshan Sect, in reality, people from the other four great sects had all participated.
If they were all uprooted, it would inevitably cause the prestige of the Five Great Sects to suffer immense damage within the cultivation world of the Chenping Continent.
The decision-makers of the Five Great Sects were no fools.
After all, they were all thousand-year-old foxes.
They were well aware that after the Heavenly Summit Mountain Cataclysm, Wei Mian was merely a scapegoat pushed out by the Kongshan Sect.
But they all chose to tacitly accept this outcome.
Precisely because within the other four great sects, there were people who had some rather obscure connections with the Kongshan Sect’s Huo Mu and his subordinates.
It’s just that these people were basically all dealt with by the four great sects for various reasons and justifications, or were completely marginalized within their sects.
But there were exceptions.
For example, Xiao Bo’an of the Mirage Palace. Even though on Heavenly Summit Mountain, he clearly belonged to the faction of Wen Hongli and He Furen, after the cataclysm ended, he did not face any purge.
The main reason was that during the Heavenly Summit Mountain Cataclysm, he did not personally kill anyone, and in reality, he did not belong to Huo Mu’s faction, but rather had a cooperative relationship with Qi Yi.
It’s just that these reasons were unknown to outsiders.
After the Heavenly Summit Mountain Cataclysm ended, the Star Heaven Sect naturally conducted a rather strict internal reshuffling, sweeping away unstable elements within the sect.
If there were now traitors within the Star Heaven Sect who would leak information to other sects, although Qin Qingyu was still surprised, she could not completely dismiss this possibility.
Because among the current Five Great Sects of the Chenping Continent, only the Star Heaven Sect lacked an Immortal Ascension Realm cultivator.
This naturally caused a certain degree of deviation in the mindset of the disciples within the sect.
Under these circumstances, if the other four great sects wanted to infiltrate the Star Heaven Sect, the difficulty would be greatly reduced compared to before.
“May I ask Elder Chu, where is Realman Sun and Moon’s Dao Basis?”
Qin Qingyu asked.
“The Dao Basis of an Immortal Ascension Realm great power cannot be touched by cultivators whose cultivation has not yet reached the Upper Three Realms.”
Chu Xiyao said lightly:
“Elder Qin need not worry. My Kongshan Sect’s Supreme Surveillance Elder Xue Xiangming will personally lead eight Grand Elders to deliver Realman Sun and Moon’s Dao Basis to the Star Heaven Sect.”
“Then, on behalf of the Star Heaven Sect, I thank True Person Kong for his kindness here in advance.”
Qin Qingyu stood up and made a respectful bow.
There was no joy in her heart.
A late-stage Divine Ability Realm great power, leading eight Unity Realm cultivators to arrive together.
This level of reception was unprecedented for the Star Heaven Sect in nearly ten thousand years.
Dominant.
Since Kong Yang returned to the Kongshan Sect, over the past two-plus years, the operational style displayed by the Kongshan Sect could be summed up in just two words.
Dominant.
Qin Qingyu had heard some secret rumors. It seemed the Mirage Palace currently had an immortal artifact that had also fallen into Kong Yang’s hands.
The Mirage Palace’s Realman Sun-Eroding was said to have already asked Kong Yang for that bronze tower three times, but each time Kong Yang had brushed him off with various excuses.
In this matter, the Mirage Palace was clearly in the right.
Anyone with eyes could see that Kong Yang was simply being unreasonable.
But if this matter continued to stalemate, the only one who would lose face would be the Mirage Palace.
Realman Sun-Eroding was enduring, but there was a limit to endurance.
Your Kongshan Sect can throw its weight around in the northwestern region of the Chenping Continent, or bully those small and medium-sized cultivation sects, fine.
But bullying my Mirage Palace? Not acceptable.
If things continued like this, no matter how much the Mirage Palace restrained itself, it seemed only a matter of time before friction and conflict between the two great sects erupted completely.
……
Heavenly Summit Mountain, Profound Scripture Hall.
A young woman dressed in moon-white daoist robes sat atop the building’s roof, her slender legs dangling over the eaves, swaying gently.
Her figure had grown even more slender compared to two years ago.
The young woman looked up at the jade-white palace suspended overhead, then slowly sighed.
Below the Profound Scripture Hall, several Wind Ravine Valley disciples holding brooms passed by. When they looked up and saw the young woman sitting dazedly on the roof of the building, they all stopped in their tracks, then bowed respectfully.
Yet the young woman simply ignored their presence.
“How have you been lately?”
A gentle young man’s voice came from behind her.
The Eighth Generation Steward of Heavenly Summit Mountain, Realman Lingxuan, Gu Jing.
The young woman turned her head listlessly, swept a glance in Gu Jing’s direction, then continued to ignore this Immortal Ascension Realm great power, lifting her head again to gaze at the pure white palace in the sky:
“Still at a bottleneck.”
Si Youyou replied.
Two years had passed, yet her cultivation still remained firmly at the mid-stage of the Qi Sea Realm, completely unmoved.
“I see.”
Upon hearing this, Gu Jing merely nodded, saying nothing.
He naturally understood what was really going on behind this. If Si Youyou wanted to, with these two years of time, plus the half portion of the Pure Dust Glazed Art he personally retrieved from the Kongshan Sect after making a deal with True Person Caiyun, it would be more than enough for her to easily break through to the Spirit Connection Realm.
She simply didn’t want to.
“As long as you can take this step, you can ascend to immortality.”
Gu Jing said slowly:
“In this world, there is nothing you cannot do.”
“Then why haven’t you taken back that broken mirror yet?”
Si Youyou retorted sharply.
Gu Jing’s expression remained unchanged, he just continued calmly:
“When it’s time to retrieve the Heavenly Summit Mirror, I will naturally retrieve it. Next, I need to make a trip to the Southern Region. I hope that by the time I return, you will have returned to the Immortal Ascension Realm.”
“I’ll do my best.”
Si Youyou replied with a weak, listless tone.
“Jingchen, you need to know one fact.”
Gu Jing slowly turned around, the wind brushing past the hem of his daoist robes, his voice like warm water:
“Dreams will eventually awaken sooner or later.”
“……”
The young woman said nothing, just continued swinging her slender legs dangling outside the eaves, looking up in the direction of the Heavenly Summit Palace.
