Chapter 297: Another Breakthrough, Nascent Soul Nine Realms!
Boom!
After a soul-searching interrogation, the Guardian did not hesitate at all. With a wave of his hand, he instantly killed the six newly discovered traitors.
Xing Yuzhu glanced at the bodies on the ground, her gaze becoming increasingly gloomy.
"It's unbelievable that even the Vice Head Teacher of Qingyun Immortal Gate has become a spy for the Illusory Moon Immortal Gate!"
"And Zhao Qian, Yin Yuexin, and others also hold important positions in the main peak of Qingyun Immortal Gate!"
"If I remember correctly, they should be responsible for the defense of Qingyun Great Hall, right?"
"Good, this is really good!"
"The three founders of the sect didn't die in vain. They were watched over by so many traitors every day, yet they managed to hold on until yesterday before perishing. It's truly rare!"
Clap!
As Xing Yuzhu spoke, she couldn't help but slam the teacup on the table.
The tea and porcelain shards splattered everywhere, many of them landing on Zhong Ten Thousand Year's body.
Zhong Ten Thousand Year trembled and stood still, not daring to move.
In fact, he was also confused.
Jia Jingzhi, Zhao Qian, and others had all been practicing in the sect for thousands or even tens of thousands of years. They practiced together every day and knew each other inside out.
Who could have imagined that these people would suddenly transform and all become members of the Illusory Moon Immortal Gate?!
"Zhong Ten Thousand Year, you really have sharp eyes as the Head Teacher!"
Xing Yuzhu looked at Zhong Ten Thousand Year with resentment and disappointment, scolding him in a stern voice.
"Look, look, look!"
"What have you turned Qingyun Immortal Gate into?!"
"I've long known that you are narrow-minded and like to eliminate dissidents. Over the years, you have banished all those senior brothers and sisters who you didn't like or who didn't support you to the outer gate!"
"Well, I can understand that. I'll consider it as you wanting to better control and develop the Immortal Gate."
"But now, look at who you have promoted?!"
Xing Yuzhu didn't hold back in her words.
Not only did she expose his shortcomings, but she even wanted to raise her hand and slap Zhong Ten Thousand Year's old face.
The vast Qingyun Immortal Gate had almost been infiltrated like a sieve by the Illusory Moon Immortal Gate. He, as the sect leader, was simply useless!
"Master's teachings are right, disciple knows his mistake!"
Zhong Ten Thousand Year didn't retort, obediently bowing his head like a frost-bitten eggplant and admitting his mistake.
Actions speak louder than words.
Who made him personally promote and trust these Nascent Soul Elders, all of whom turned out to be traitors?!
This was no longer a matter of bad luck; it was simply blindness!
Zhong Ten Thousand Year now seriously doubted whether his judgment of people was flawed.
Otherwise, why would every Nascent Soul Realm Elder he favored turn out to be a traitor?!
This was too bizarre!
"Is admitting your mistake enough?"
Xing Yuzhu looked at Zhong Ten Thousand Year dissatisfied.
Before the investigation began, she never expected that the problems within the main peak of Qingyun Immortal Gate would be so severe!
Even the Vice Head Teacher had become a member of the Illusory Moon Immortal Gate. It was truly shocking and unbelievable!
The entire leadership of the main peak of Qingyun Immortal Gate had completely rotted away!
The only thing worth celebrating was that the other four peaks hadn't discovered any major problems and were still under control.
Otherwise, the entire Qingyun Immortal Gate may truly be beyond salvation.
"Now, I have every reason to suspect that you, as the Head Teacher Perfected Being, have also betrayed and joined the Illusory Moon Immortal Gate!"
"So, in order to prove your innocence and let Master Jing evaluate you as well!"
Swish!
Zhong Ten Thousand Year suddenly looked up, his eyes filled with disbelief as he looked at Xing Yuzhu.
What does this mean?
Master Yuzhu actually suspects even him, the Head Teacher?
How is this possible? How could Master Yuzhu have such absurd thoughts?
Zhong Ten Thousand Year grew up in the Qingyun Immortal Gate since he was young, and he is even the leader of one of the factions in the Qingyun Immortal Gate. Even if he were to die, he would never betray the Qingyun Immortal Gate, alright?!
This proposal from Master Yuzhu is simply an insult to his character!
"What's wrong, are you unwilling?"
Xing Yuzhu raised her eyebrows and focused on Zhong Ten Thousand Year, saying:
"Or is it that you're already feeling guilty?"
Zhong Ten Thousand Year trembled and quickly lowered his head, respectfully saying:
"Disciple obeys Master's arrangement and is willing to let Master Jing search and verify!"
The situation is stronger than people, indeed.
Who made him have so many internal traitors and defectors?
If he cannot prove his innocence during this opportunity, not only would Master Yuzhu not believe him, even the disciples and elders in the sect would also have doubts about him!
Strictly speaking, although Master Yuzhu's proposal would damage his dignity and the authority of the Head Teacher, it is currently the best and most advantageous solution for him.
"Good, at least you have some brains!"
Seeing that Zhong Ten Thousand Year finally reacted, Xing Yuzhu nodded slightly.
"Zongyang, let's begin."
"Not only our Head Teacher, but also the Peak Masters of the other four peaks should also be verified, just in case!"
The infiltration methods of the Illusory Moon Immortal Gate truly frightened Xing Yuzhu.
Before this, even if someone killed her, she probably wouldn't believe that the Vice Head Teacher of the Qingyun Immortal Gate would actually be an undercover agent sent by another Immortal Gate!
Now, within the entire Qingyun Immortal Gate, besides the Keeper of the Books, Jing Zongyang, Xing Yuzhu saw everyone as suspicious, as if they were all undercover agents sent by the Illusory Moon Immortal Gate!
"That's fine!"
The Keeper of the Books did not refuse and said calmly:
"Let's conduct the verification in advance to avoid baseless suspicions in the future!"
Saying that, the Keeper of the Books appeared in front of Zhong Ten Thousand Year, using his immortal power to imprison Zhong Ten Thousand Year's figure.
"Don't worry, as long as you don't resist and cooperate with my investigation, it won't harm your soul essence!"
Comforting the slightly nervous Zhong Ten Thousand Year, the Keeper of the Books instantly extended his Spiritual Sense, forcefully invading Zhong Ten Thousand Year's sea of consciousness.
One breath, two breaths...
After five breaths.
The Keeper of the Books withdrew his Spiritual Sense and released the restrictions on Zhong Ten Thousand Year, nodding towards Xing Yuzhu.
"Junior Ten Thousand Year doesn't have any major issues and has had no private contact with the Illusory Moon Immortal Gate or the Broken Star Hall!"
Upon hearing this, Xing Yuzhu also felt relieved.
Fortunately, the Head Teacher of the Qingyun Immortal Gate has no problems, otherwise their sect's reputation would be completely ruined.
However, Zhong Ten Thousand Year is no longer suitable to continue as the Head Teacher of the Immortal Gate.
It is not only because of his serious mistakes in protecting the three ancestral masters, but also because of his narrow-mindedness and prejudice against others.
But as the leader of a faction, Ten Thousand Year's judgment of people is truly disappointing.
If he continues to stay in the position of Head Teacher, who knows what Qingyun Immortal Gate will become under his management?
Ten Thousand Year also breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
Although he had a clear conscience and had never betrayed the sect, he was worried that the Keeper of the Books would take the opportunity to settle personal grievances and tarnish his reputation.
After all, he had had several unpleasant encounters with the Keeper of the Books because of that little servant Liu Zimo.
Moreover, in his sea of consciousness, he had some plans to settle scores with Liu Zimo after the matter was resolved, even to the point of killing him directly.
Ten Thousand Year was very worried that if the Keeper of the Books saw these thoughts during the soul search, he would vent his anger on him and either blame him or kill him with a single palm.
Fortunately, the Keeper of the Books did not lie or hold him accountable.
He finally passed this test.
"I'll go to the other four peaks!"
The Keeper of the Books glanced at Ten Thousand Year, who had breathed a sigh of relief, and left with these words.
At the same time.
Library.
After finishing lunch, Liu Zimo, who was lying on the third-floor windowsill watching the show, suddenly heard a prompt in his ear:
[Your good brother Jia Jingzhi has had a string of bad luck and disasters, and was killed by someone with a single palm, his soul no longer exists!]
[The 'Stealing Heaven' Talent attribute has been triggered, and you have inherited half of the remaining gifts from your good brother Jia Jingzhi before his death: Moon Illusion Technique +1000, Turtle Breathing Technique +1000, Immortal Dao Cultivation Base +800, Spiritual Sense +800, Sea of Consciousness Space +50000.]
[Your good brother Jia Jingzhi has gone offline, currently available binding targets (565/1000).]
[...]
[Your good brother Zhao Qian has had a string of bad luck and disasters, and was killed by someone with a single palm, his soul no longer exists... currently available binding targets (560/1000).]
Liu Zimo was stunned.
What's happening today?
Why do all his "good brothers" and "good sisters" like to die together?
In such a short time, how did six Nascent Soul realm "good brothers" and "good sisters" suddenly perish?
Especially Jia Jingzhi, Liu Zimo clearly remembered that he was the deputy Head Teacher of Qingyun Immortal Gate!
As a cultivator in the Nascent Soul realm, his status in Qingyun Immortal Gate was only slightly lower than Ten Thousand Year's!
Compared to the four peak masters like Dai Yingyu and Yue Qiguang, he was no less inferior, right?
But now, even such a high-ranking figure suddenly perished within the Immortal Gate?
Liu Zimo couldn't help but look towards the main peak of Qingyun.
Because of the presence of the Keeper of the Books, Liu Zimo had never dared to use his Spiritual Sense to spy on the main peak of Qingyun.
Now it seemed that there was likely internal strife in the Great Hall of Qingyun!
It's really interesting.
In the face of a major enemy, these Immortal Gate cultivators are not thinking about how to unite and fight together, but instead are fighting among themselves!
Look, it's only been a few hours, and the number of Inner Sect and true transmission Elders who died on the main peak of Qingyun has already exceeded twenty!
This time it's even more ruthless.
Even the deputy Head Teacher Jia Jingzhi couldn't protect his life!
A Nascent Soul realm cultivator didn't die outside the mountain gate, but silently died at the hands of his own people. It's truly tragic and ridiculous!
Liu Zimo shook his head slightly.
He didn't know what had happened on the main peak of Qingyun.
But he knew that no matter the reason, the death of a deputy Head Teacher indicated that there were major problems within Qingyun Immortal Gate.
The Immortal Gate and the Broken Star Palace have not yet officially started a war with the Illusory Moon Immortal Gate, but the situation at the Qingyun Immortal Gate has already become chaotic.
How can this battle be fought?
"It seems that we really need to prepare in advance!"
While refining the massive amount of Cultivation Base energy surging within him, Liu Zimo muttered to himself in his mind:
"If things go wrong, I can just run away directly to avoid being implicated."
"However, the many books and Jade Slips in this library are all treasures that cannot be wasted. It would be best if I can take them all with me!"
"And Liu Yun, if possible, I should bring her along too!"
Liu Zimo calculated in his mind.
He didn't have much attachment to the Qingyun Immortal Gate, except for Liu Yun. The tens of thousands of books and inheritances in front of him were also important to him.
He believed that once the gate of the Qingyun Immortal Gate was breached, the guardians of the books would definitely not have time to care about these treasures.
At that time, with just a thought, he could take away all the books and inheritances that the Qingyun Immortal Gate had accumulated over hundreds of thousands of years!
In Liu Zimo's eyes, the so-called Heavenly and Mortal Treasures and Spirit Stones were not worth mentioning compared to the books and Jade Slips in this library.
Boom!
There was also a rumbling in Liu Zimo's sea of consciousness.
His Cultivation Base Realm had unknowingly made a great breakthrough!
"Nascent Soul Ninth Stage!"
Liu Zimo's mind trembled slightly. He didn't expect to break through to the Nascent Soul Ninth Stage so quickly!
Originally, according to his previous calculations, with the help of his "good brothers" and "good sisters" who provided various opportunities for cultivation every day, it would take him at least two to three years to successfully break through to the Nascent Soul Ninth Stage.
Unexpectedly, just because of an accident and calamity at the Qingyun Immortal Gate, he had advanced three levels in just one day!
"Indeed, if you want to quickly improve your Cultivation Base, you still have to diligently exploit others!"
Liu Zimo sighed in his heart.
Under normal circumstances, he didn't like sacrificing his "good brothers" and "good sisters" to quickly improve his own Cultivation Base Realm.
Because it was too bloody and demonic, it was easy to accumulate too much Karma and Killing intent, which had a great impact on one's state of mind.
More importantly, it was a one-time deal and not cost-effective.
In general, unless someone actively sought death or threatened his own life, Liu Zimo preferred to take the sustainable development path.
Let those "good brothers" and "good sisters" grow and improve freely, providing him with various opportunities for cultivation.
If conditions allowed, Liu Zimo would even personally nurture and help them grow quickly.
But now...
It was a conflict and game between the three major Immortal Gates, completely beyond Liu Zimo's control.
If nothing unexpected happened, more people might lose their lives as a result.
Liu Zimo had been lurking in the Qingyun Immortal Gate for so long, and it was not easy to bind those geniuses. He didn't know how many of them would survive in the end.
"Well then! Since I can't control it, I'll just go with the flow!"
"After reaching the Nascent Soul Ninth Stage, I also have a certain self-defense power!"
"Afterward, even if I encounter a Nascent Soul peak-level guardian, I should have the ability to fight."
Liu Zimo cheered himself up and whispered:
"If I only want to escape and run for my life, even with a little burden like Liu Yun, I should be able to easily leave this place of turmoil!"
The Nascent Soul Ninth Stage could be considered a powerful force among the Apex Level Immortal Gates like the Qingyun Immortal Gate.
Under normal circumstances, as long as he wasn't deliberately targeted, the safety factor should be quite high.
