Immortal Skills - Chapter 573
573 Various Plans
In the northeast of the South Moon Grotto-Heaven, a large number of experts had gathered. With a single glance, it was obvious who they were!
“They’re from the Cultivation Alliance!”
Some of the people from the other forces noticed the strange situation here and their expressions changed slightly.
This time, the incident at the South Moon Grotto-Heaven had attracted many powers.
Some grotto-heaven-level or even stronger forces wanted to seize the Grotto-Heaven and establish their own branches to increase their strength.
Some second-class forces wanted to take down the South Moon Grotto-Heaven and develop their own forces there.
“It was the Cultivation Alliance that interfered. That’s why only one of the three grotto-heavens came, the Immortal Feather Grotto-Heaven. Of the other major forces, only the Green Feather Cultivation Academy, Spirit Silkworm Mountain, and Ghost Spirit Sect came. However, the royal family of the Feather Kingdom has also stepped in, and it has even affected some deep-rooted immortal cultivation families!”
These immortal cultivation families had always been hidden in the depths of the Feather Kingdom. They were essentially the aristocrats of the kingdom. They usually did not reveal their true identity.
However, at this moment, these forces chose to make a move one after another. They wanted to use this opportunity to suppress everyone. Their goal was also to support the royal family of the Feather Kingdom in suppressing the other sects and groups.
After Jiang Ming learned of all of this, he could not help but chuckle. “Since ancient times, aristocratic families have always been enemies with royalty. Now, in order to further consolidate their power, the aristocratic families are actually supporting royalty. It seems like the influence of these sects on the aristocratic families is not something to scoff at” Jiang Ming said casually.
Zhu An’an, who was standing at the side, said softly, “I heard about it when I was still in the Ghost Spirit Sect. In the early years, there were many battles between the aristocratic families and the sects. Among them, the top four of the nine aristocratic families fell. Now, there are only five aristocratic families left. On the other hand, the three grotto-heavens were not damaged at all, while the six blessed lands had suffered heavy losses. This was all because of the Immortal Feather Grotto-Heaven… However, it was not absolute, the other two grotto-heavens were not as powerful as the Immortal Feather Grotto-Heaven, but their strength could not be underestimated. Of course, something else must have happened. However, I don’t know what it is exactly. I only know that after Reverend Mo became the sect master of the Immortal Feather Grotto-Heaven, the power of the Feather King plummeted, and he was completely suppressed by the Immortal Feather Grotto-Heaven.”
When Jiang Ming heard this, he said in surprise, “After being suppressed for hundreds of years, the Feather Kingdom’s royal family suddenly launched a counterattack. It seems that this generation’s king is very ambitious. Or well, he might be an idiot.”
“Master, if the royal family of the Feather Kingdom, the aristocratic families, and the group led by the Immortal Feather Grotto-Heaven have a conflict, which side should we help?” Rao Wuqing asked.
Zhu Asi glanced at him. He also wanted to hear Jiang Ming’s explanation and see how talented Ning Caichen was in controlling a force.
As the most talented of the Zhuyan Palace’s outer disciples, he was also one of the leaders of all the outer disciples. He was also the leader of the largest faction of the Zhuyan Palace’s outer disciples. Naturally, he was good at managing his forces and other aspects.
However, he never expected Jiang Ming’s next words to be so shocking.
“Naturally, we will remain neutral. After all, we have Mr. Zhu and the entire Zhuyan Palace behind us. Why should we care about the internal disputes of the Feather Kingdom?”
“What the f*ck?”
Zhu Asi couldn’t help but roar in his heart. He immediately wanted to brandish his sword and attack Jiang Ming! However, in the end, he held back.
“Ning Caichen is definitely trying to provoke me on purpose. He is so annoying. Why is he teasing us like this?”
Zhu Asi was indignant in his heart, but he did not know that Jiang Ming was not joking.
“Elder Mo wants me to join their sect, so the Zhuyan Palace must be our sect’s backer. The Feather Race’s ancestral village is included as well!”
Jiang Ming planned to go to the Feather Race’s ancestral village immediately after the battle for the South Moon Grotto-Heaven. He knew very well that he had a lot of issues to deal with.
Initially, he only had to deal with Mo Lingche and Yu Tianhua. However, now there was a mysterious expert plotting against him. The lightning tribulation he had faced earlier had almost taken his life.
Jiang Ming could not take it anymore. He urgently needed a force to back him up and ensure the safety of himself and the entire Flowerfruit Sect.
The Zhuyan Palace was undoubtedly the best choice for such a task. As for the Feather Race’s ancestral land, it was a force that Jiang Ming wanted to absorb.
However, what he did not know was that at this moment, on the territory of the Flowerfruit Sect, a figure was sneaking close to the sect master’s hall.
It was Murong Zhenyang!
He had been hiding in the Flowerfruit Sect under the alias Zhen Yang for quite a long time. His cultivation level had also increased continuously, and he was now a genuine Nascent Soul Realm cultivator.
He approached the hall step by step, wanting to seize the opportunity to find out all of Ning Caichen’s secrets!
“This Ning Caichen must have a huge secret to be so powerful. If I can find out what it is, my strength will definitely increase!”
Murong Zhenyang smiled. He had just sent those two idiotic seniors away! Now was the best time to make a meteoric rise.
Alas, he was wrong.
“This guy is the real idiot. Does he think that the master’s hall is a brothel that anyone can enter?”
“That’s right. The master’s hall is the place with the highest level of security in the Flowerfruit Sect. What kind of trouble does Murong Zhenyang want to stir up?”
Gu Chi and Sha Luo revealed themselves and sneered. They had seen idiots before, but they had never seen someone as stupid as this.
After all, Jiang Ming had predicted Murong Zhenyang’s arrival.
“I have to say, the methods of the master are indeed extraordinary. He is clearly not a clairvoyant, but he can use his extraordinary wisdom to calculate every step Murong Zhenyang takes. Gu Chi, what do you think this guy’s goal is? Can’t he just stay in the Flowerfruit Sect obediently?”
“Who knows? Previously, he was still happily staying in the sect to cultivate. Now, he has evil thoughts… Since that’s the case, let’s make him understand that we’re not to be trifled with!”
Gu Chi and Sha Luo kept talking, wanting to teach Murong Zhenyang an unforgettable lesson.
Murong Zhenyang was completely unaware of this. He continued to approach to investigate, but he was soon blocked by an invisible barrier.
“A seal?”
Murong Zhenyang furrowed his brows slightly, and a talisman appeared in his hand.
“A Formation Breaking Talisman? It is not an ordinary Formation Breaking Talisman. Could it be a gift from the owner of the General’s Tomb? How can a dead person give away such a powerful talisman? Don’t joke around, the royal edict was probably a legacy left behind by the Murong royal family. I wonder when this guy will reveal his true body and let us obtain the true location of the treasure left behind by the Murong royal family. That’s what the master is most concerned about!”
