Chapter 1126 - 1226: So I Can Do It Too?

Because everyone in Taichu Sect knows, if they were to ask Master Taichu, then it would definitely be remembered by him.

Because from Ye Tianfan's actions with Master Taichu, it's clear that the creation of pure spiritual power is an indescribable process.

And to ask Master Taichu about it now would be like sprinkling salt on a wound.

Therefore, everyone wisely refrained from asking, but they were all very curious. So what could be done? They hoped for someone bold enough without sense.

For that person to ask those questions. Even if it leaves a bad impression in Master Taichu's mind, it wouldn't harm the bold one.

After all, the bold one couldn't perceive this situation, but since setting off until now, they hadn't encountered such a daring person. Everyone actually hoped Ye Tianfan would ask, because they all knew Ye Tianfan had a great chance of becoming the next Sect Leader of Taichu Sect.

And even if Ye Tianfan isn't the next Sect Leader, he would eventually be the one after. This was inevitable.

After all, Master Taichu was already training Ye Tianfan as a Sect Leader.

Thus, Master Taichu wouldn't give Ye Tianfan a hard time, since this is the successor he personally chose. Therefore, even if Master Taichu doesn't answer, he won't hold a grudge against Ye Tianfan for asking questions.

Of course, Master Taichu might also answer the question, since Ye Tianfan, as his chosen successor, has the right to know things others don't.

But Ye Tianfan seems like an old hand, never taking the initiative to ask, as if he's not curious. Yet everyone knows Ye Tianfan is curious too.

After all, they each were curious; it stands to reason Ye Tianfan would be curious. But Ye Tianfan could remain calm and patient, something the others found remarkable. Although given Ye Tianfan's strength, his mindset shouldn't be so composed and steady.

Logically speaking, Ye Tianfan's mindset should be full of curiosity, considering he has only cultivated for about five years. For a normal person, five years in cultivation is just the beginning, even though Ye Tianfan's strength has reached the Thousand Source Realm, his mindset shouldn't be so mature!

Faced with such curiosity-inducing questions, Ye Tianfan showed no curiosity, or perhaps he's simply able to endure till now, utterly overturning the impression others had of Ye Tianfan, even making them hold him in higher regard.

Because those among them with Thousand Origin Realm strength are no longer able to hold back their curiosity, having come close to asking several times, only to be restrained by others by their side, for as members of Taichu Sect, asking the Sect Leader such an embarrassing or awkward question would be like asking your boss on the job about the time they went to the bathroom today.

So despite their deep curiosity, nobody asked, and those who wished to inquire were intercepted by others.

They were all waiting for someone who wouldn't be resented for asking, like Ye Tianfan or Senior Brother Yun Tian; Ye Tianfan wouldn't be resented by Master Taichu, nor would Senior Brother Yun Tian, though he might face slight trouble, given Yun Tian is Master Taichu's true disciple.

If it weren't for Ye Tianfan's appearance, the next Sect Leader would be Senior Brother Yun Tian. Everyone recognized this consensus, but Ye Tianfan's sudden rise snatched the Sect Leader position from Yun Tian. Of course, one couldn't say it was taken; it shows Ye Tianfan is simply outstanding.

Such is the situation, especially since Senior Brother Yun Tian had the breadth of mind not to hold such matters against Ye Tianfan, merely acknowledging Ye Tianfan surpassed him and had suitable temperament for leadership.

Thus, Senior Brother Yun Tian sincerely supported Ye Tianfan becoming the next Sect Leader.

Returning to the matter, Ye Tianfan and the others had scarce amounts of pure spiritual power left. If the next attack of creatures beyond the wall were numerous, it was quite possible that these powers would be depleted completely in one go, and if that happened, they would have no choice but to return to their previous location, though this return wasn't like the last, which was disgraceful.

But nearly so, since they've run out of pure spiritual power, if the creatures attack then, they may retreat disgracefully again, with the territories Ye Tianfan and the others occupied suffering losses from their departure, losing as much as they gained, no less.

Consequently, Ye Tianfan and the others found themselves at an impasse, not wishing their previous efforts to be for naught, yet powerless should they fail.

Thus, Ye Tianfan and the others were pondering methods, such as having Master Taichu create another batch of pure spiritual power, for without it, they lacked alternatives.

After all, they didn't wish to retreat disgracefully to previous areas, having already endured such once, unwilling to face it again.

However, it seemed neither Master Taichu nor those involved in the creation wished for a repeat attempt; no one knew why, yet none had solutions.

While Ye Tianfan considered persuading Master Taichu to produce another batch, contemplating the awkwardness it might entail, the necessity was apparent because without pure spiritual power, exploration outside the wall was impossible.

Suddenly, Ye Tianfan thought, pure spiritual power was a form of energy; could it be possible for Ye Tianfan himself to convert demonic and evil qi into pure spiritual power?

After all, they were energy forms. This realization brought clarity to Ye Tianfan.

Ye Tianfan suddenly remembered he could indeed create pure spiritual power, although Ye Tianfan was uncertain whether he could truly convert demonic and evil qi into pure spiritual power, since he hadn't tried converting before.

Despite knowing some characteristics of pure spiritual power, Ye Tianfan couldn't confirm a successful conversion; nevertheless, he felt compelled to try, as lives were at stake.
