Chapter 98: Two Real People
Naturally, no one was willing to take the lead, so they set their sights on the Golden Yue Sect.
After all, Jin Yue Sect does bear an undeniable responsibility for the current situation.
Therefore, Master Taixi had no reason to refuse and could only nod and say:
"Can."
Seeing that Taixi agreed, True Man Xuandu nodded slightly, his gaze sweeping over all the True Man present, and said slowly:
"Since Fellow Daoist Taixi has agreed, then it is settled. The three fellow Daoists from Jin Yue Sect will be the vanguard, and the other three Daoist lineages will each send three Purple Mansion cultivators, for a total of twelve True Persons. We will choose a day to attack Qin."
"Twelve?"
A real person frowned slightly and said:
"Isn't this a bit excessive? The Qin Kingdom is no longer the celestial dynasty it once was; it doesn't even have a single Purple Mansion cultivator now. Why bother with such a grand display?"
The other real people also nodded and said:
"Yes, the Qin state has long since declined, and now it has no true masters left. Why bother sending so many true masters?"
"many?"
Master Xuandu smiled faintly and shook his head, saying:
"If it were only the Golden Yue Sect, that would be fine, but Zhen Lei Pei Xiyan has already broken through to the Purple Mansion realm, so there will definitely be True Persons coming from Jade Forest Mountain. What's even more troublesome is the Three Pure Ones Mountain..."
Upon hearing the mention of Sanqing Mountain, the expressions of all the masters present changed.
Then a Jurchen woman from Shu whispered:
"Will the Supreme Clarity Immortal really take action personally?"
"meeting."
Master Taixi spoke slowly, his voice calm yet resolute:
"The three energies of fortune, longevity, and prosperity are related to the foundation of all living beings. Fellow Daoist Shangqing... no, given the style of Sanqing Mountain and the character of True Man Shangqing, he will not sit idly by."
"But isn't he being watched by our people?"
"So what if we're watching?"
Master Taixi opened his eyes and smiled calmly:
"With his mastery of the Five Elements and his profound understanding of sword intent, could an ordinary Purple Mansion cultivator possibly stop him?"
Upon hearing this, everyone fell silent.
The perfection of the Five Elements is the ultimate state of the Purple Mansion realm, just one step away from the Golden Core stage.
Not to mention that Master Shangqing has also comprehended sword intent, making his combat power far surpass that of others at the same level.
If they were to actually face him, no one present was confident of victory.
Seeing that they remained silent, Master Taixi chuckled and continued:
"Furthermore, everyone must not forget that the Qin Kingdom also has a great formation that was set up by the two True Lords, [Fu Qi] and [Lu Qi], together."
"Even if the Qin Kingdom doesn't have a Purple Mansion True Person now, the power of that great formation can only be unleashed to one-tenth or one-twelfth of its full potential, but who among you is confident that you can break the formation in a short time?"
Upon hearing this, the other cultivators all showed thoughtful expressions and nodded repeatedly.
"In that case, the Qin state is indeed not to be underestimated."
Seeing this, Master Xuandu said in a deep voice:
"That's why I need ten True Immortals to go together. No matter how strong the Shangqing True Immortal is, it's impossible for him to face the siege of more than five Purple Mansions at the same time."
"As for the [Blessing All People Array] and the [Thunderclap] True Man, I'm sure Fellow Daoist Taixi can withstand them."
Master Taixi nodded slightly and smiled:
"Of course."
At this moment, a real person suddenly asked:
"How long will it take Li Wu to break through to the Purple Mansion realm?"
Master Taixi replied:
"Li Wu's aptitude is not low; he will probably be able to break through to the Purple Mansion Realm in three to five years."
"In that case, we can't wait any longer."
Master Xuandu decisively said:
"Three days later, the twelve immortals went to the Qin State to destroy the three energies of fortune, longevity, and prosperity, severing their foundation."
"If the Supreme Pure One obstructs..."
He paused, his gaze sharp:
"Then let him know that our four kingdoms' lineage is not without the power to fight."
…………
at the same time.
The True Man of Wood Origin and the True Man of Upper Purity from Mount Yulin also descended upon the Qin State.
King Ji of Qin looked at the two immortals who had suddenly appeared in his palace and recognized their identities.
The Shangqing Zhenren of Sanqing Mountain and the Muyuan Zhenren of Yulin Mountain are both great masters who have perfected the Five Laws.
He dared not be negligent and quickly stepped forward to bow and say:
"I have met the two real people."
"Your Majesty, there's no need for such formalities."
Shangqing nodded slightly, then looked at Muyuan Zhenren and nodded, saying:
"Fellow Daoist Mu Yuan, it's been a long time."
Mu Yuan looked at the young man Shang Qing in front of him and smiled faintly:
"Fellow Daoist Shangqing, it's been a long time."
The two had met once several hundred years ago, when they were both just beginning to enter the Purple Mansion Realm.
They later entered a secret realm together and traveled together for some time, so they had some kind of relationship.
"I never expected to see Fellow Daoist Shangqing here."
The position of Sanqing Mountain has always been ambiguous. As for whether it sided with Lei Palace, Sanqing Mountain did indeed contribute to Lei Palace's destruction.
However, it would be incorrect to say that he sided with the four kingdoms' lineages.
After all, after the destruction of Lei Palace, Sanqing Mountain did not, like other sects, extensively refine human pills to improve cultivation. Instead, it kept its gates closed and did not taint itself with blood.
Therefore, even Master Muyuan couldn't figure out what Sanqingshan was up to.
The Supreme Pure Immortal nodded slightly, then looked at King Ji of Qin and said:
"I have long heard that there is a great formation left behind by a True Lord in the Qin Kingdom. I wonder if Your Majesty would be so kind as to let us see it?"
King Ji of Qin nodded repeatedly and said:
"Please follow me, esteemed gentlemen."
The group arrived deep within the national treasury and saw the [Great Array for Blessing All People].
The Supreme Pure Immortal stood with his hands behind his back at the edge of the great formation, scanning the intricate array patterns. After a long while, he slowly nodded and said:
"The work of the True Lord is indeed extraordinary. Even the True Lord would not dare to enter this great formation lightly if it were at its peak."
He paused, then changed the subject:
"Unfortunately, the Fu and Lu energies are now in decline, and the power that the great formation can exert is less than one-tenth of its peak."
Master Mu Yuan stepped forward, carefully examining the [Gathering Fortune Cauldron] and the [Prosperity Seal], and pondered:
"The two spiritual treasures are intact, but no one can truly activate them. If a Purple Mansion True Person with [Fortune Qi] or [Prosperity Qi] were to preside over them, the power of this great formation could be increased by at least 30%."
Upon hearing this, King Ji of Qin looked ashamed and sighed:
"It is because of the incompetence of the Ying clan that the two paths of fortune and prosperity have declined to this extent."
"King Qin need not blame himself."
Master Muyuan offered words of comfort:
"The decline of the two energies of fortune and prosperity is not something that happened overnight, nor is it the fault of one person. The most important thing now is how to deal with the offensive of the four countries."
Master Shangqing nodded slightly and said:
"Even without a Purple Mansion True Person in charge of the formation, with the help of the Qin Kingdom's Fortune and Prosperity Qi, this [Blessing the People Formation] can easily hold off two or three Purple Mansion True Persons."
Master Muyuan stroked his beard and said:
"The four Purple Mansion True Persons will not come out in full force, at most a dozen or so, after all, their real target, [Divine Thunder], is currently in the East Sea Dragon Palace."
"Fellow Daoist Shangqing and I can each hold off three or four without any problem. If the great formation holds off two or three more, the rest can be left to Pei Xiyan."
Although Pei Xiyan only possesses one supernatural power at present, he is still a [Thunderclap] cultivator. He can easily hold off one or two Purple Mansion True Persons who rely on consuming human pills or those with less than three supernatural powers.
Upon hearing this, King Ji of Qin's last trace of worry dissipated, and he bowed deeply with his hands clasped.
"The survival of the Qin state depends entirely on you sages."
