Chapter 1941 New decrees, all are in motion!
"There is an elder who controls the core authority of the sect's protective formation!"
This Nascent Soul cultivator is a staunch loyalist of the sect, utterly devoted to the Myriad Immortals Sect, and would never surrender to our Cultivator Association.
"Moreover, this elder is extremely meticulous."
He didn't act rashly at first, but instead chose to bide his time, secretly using the power of the sect's protective formation to monitor the movements of all cultivators within the sect.
Especially those sect cultivators who intend to surrender to our association,
Every move was under his control.
"He only launched his attack after he had thoroughly investigated the backgrounds of all the surrendered cultivators and confirmed that none of them had been overlooked."
Without the slightest hesitation, he directly activated the supreme power of the sect's protective formation.
Ignoring years of camaraderie among fellow students,
Ignoring the pleas for mercy from those cultivators, he ruthlessly killed all the sect cultivators who intended to surrender, leaving no room for mercy.
According to intelligence reports, a full 80% of the cultivators left behind by the Ten Thousand Immortals Sect perished, their blood staining the sect's main hall.
The entire Ten Thousand Immortals Sect was shrouded in a thick stench of blood.
Speaking of which,
The tone of Fengying Banzun also became more solemn:
"That elder, who controlled the core authority of the Myriad Immortals Sect's protective formation, after killing the surrendered cultivators, carried immense killing intent and suppressed the remaining 20% of the sect's cultivators in one fell swoop."
It forcibly unified all internal voices.
In this way, on the surface, the Myriad Immortals Sect naturally had no cultivators willing to surrender anymore.
As soon as he finished speaking,
He added, his tone carrying a deeper meaning:
"At least on the surface, the Ten Thousand Immortals Sect shows no signs of surrendering."
Those surviving cultivators were either staunchly loyalists or had been forcibly coerced; they dared not harbor the slightest disloyalty.
"Under these circumstances, after Fellow Daoist Lingbao and his group arrive at the Myriad Immortals Sect, they intend to investigate the sect's cultivators to ensure no one has escaped..."
They could only forcefully attack the Wanxian Sect's protective formation.
There was no other way.
Fengying, the half-saint, continued, his tone tinged with helplessness.
"But fellow cultivators are also aware of how terrifying the protective formations of top sects are. They are forged by gathering the power of countless cultivators and consuming countless rare and precious materials, possessing boundless power."
Even if we, as semi-saints, joined forces, we would be utterly powerless to break through even the slightest barrier.
"Only by using the jade talisman bestowed by the sect leader and relying on the supreme power contained within it can we possibly break through this sect-protecting formation."
But no one expected that an accident would happen like this—
The jade talisman bestowed by the guild master possesses such terrifying power.
After Fellow Daoist Lingbao and his companions activated the jade talisman, they unleashed a single attack...
To wipe the entire Ten Thousand Immortals Sect off the face of the earth.
Not even a trace was left.
Even the spiritual veins stretching for thousands of miles beneath the Ten Thousand Immortals Sect were completely shattered by the power of the jade talisman, and could never be gathered again.
"That's why the Guild Master urgently changed the original decree, strictly forbidding us from using jade talismans to break the formation again."
They were terrified that such a tragedy would happen again, causing unnecessary losses.
Hearing this,
The pupils of the Celestial Pivot Half-Saint and the other Half-Saints shrank sharply, a look of disbelief flashing in their eyes.
The composed smile on his face vanished instantly, replaced by deep shock.
Silence fell once more on the deck, broken only by the howling of the cold wind.
All the semi-saints were still processing this astonishing news.
After a while,
The burly half-saint was the first to regain his senses, his voice trembling slightly as he looked at the Wind Shadow half-saint:
"Fellow Daoist, is this news true?"
Was the Ten Thousand Immortals Sect wiped out in one blow?
"Does the jade talisman bestowed by the guild master truly possess such terrifying power?"
"yes,"
Another half-saint chimed in, his eyes filled with apprehension.
"We've seen that jade talisman before; it seemed ordinary, but we never imagined it contained such terrifying power."
If we were to accidentally activate it, we ourselves might be affected.
"It's more than just a ripple effect; I think if we were to activate that jade talisman, we'd be instantly reduced to ashes."
Even half of his physical body couldn't be preserved.
Another half-saint said in a low voice, his tone full of lingering fear.
For a time,
Discussions arose again on deck.
The assembled half-saints all wore varying expressions, some shocked, some wary.
It was somewhat unbelievable.
see,
The refined-looking Half-Venerable Wind Shadow shook his head helplessly and said calmly:
"Whether you believe it or not, this is the information I received, and it is absolutely true."
However, this is not difficult to verify.
"As long as you fellow cultivators use your divine sense to inquire with your friends, it shouldn't be difficult to determine the truth of the news."
"That's true."
The Celestial Pivot Half-Saint nodded slowly, his expression gradually returning to calm.
“Fellow Daoist Fengying is always cautious. Since he said so, it is most likely true.”
It seems we underestimated the jade talisman bestowed by the guild leader.
They also underestimated the power contained within the jade talisman.
"yes!
Who could have imagined that a seemingly ordinary jade talisman would possess such devastating power?
"If you ever come into contact with that jade talisman again, you must be extremely cautious."
The other half-saints echoed his sentiments, their tone filled with apprehension.
After this incident, their respect for Chairman Cheng Buzheng increased even more.
Just then, a sudden change occurred—
The group of semi-saints on the deck all stopped moving at once, their expressions instantly becoming serious, and their auras becoming tense.
Then,
In their palms, one after another, a jade talisman, pure white and shimmering with spiritual light, appeared.
Runes flowed across the jade talisman, emanating a faint aura of power.
This is the communication jade talisman of the Cult of Monks.
Without the slightest hesitation, the group of half-saints each probed a wisp of divine thought into the communication jade talisman in their palms.
A moment later...
An urgent intelligence report immediately came to their attention.
As the intelligence arrived, the expressions of the group of semi-saints grew increasingly solemn.
Some had furrowed brows, some had gloomy faces, and some had a hint of urgency in their eyes.
The atmosphere on the deck instantly became oppressive.
quickly,
Tian Shu Half-Saint slowly lowered the communication jade talisman in his palm, his fingertips trembling slightly.
He glanced around at the group of half-saints on the deck, and seeing that everyone's expressions were solemn, he slowly began to speak:
"Fellow Daoists, I presume you have all received the Guild Master's latest decree?"
The group of half-saints nodded in unison, none of them speaking, but their eyes were fixed intently on Tian Shu Half-Saint, waiting for him to continue.
Tian Shu Half-Saint took a deep breath and said in a solemn tone:
"The president has issued his decree, ordering us to arrange two matters as soon as possible:"
Firstly, select one person to return to Zhenhai City to meet the Guild Master and receive the beacon tracking the remnants of the Ten Thousand Immortals Sect who are practicing rebellion.
Secondly, one person was dispatched to the front lines in the open sea to oversee the overall situation and defend against the Black Tiger Shark Clan's attack.
These two matters are of great importance, concerning the reputation and structure of our monks' association.
Let's discuss now who should meet with the chairman.
Who will go to the front lines?
next moment,
Fengying Half-Venerable spoke first, his tone firm, a hint of confidence flashing in his eyes:
"I am fast on my feet and skilled in escape techniques, as all of you fellow Daoists know."
Why don't I go see the guild leader and retrieve the treasure used to track down the rebellious cultivator from the Myriad Immortals Sect?
In this way, they can track down the rebellious cultivator hiding in the shadows in the shortest possible time, giving them no chance to catch their breath.
This will also expand the results of our trip.
I will not let the president down.
The voice just fell,
Another half-saint, dressed in black robes and with a sinister face, shook his head, his tone tinged with dissatisfaction:
"My speed is also quite good, in no way inferior to Fellow Daoist Fengying."
This matter is of great importance; it's not impossible for me to handle it.
"I also feel that it would be more appropriate for me to handle this matter."
"I am skilled in stealth, and even if I encounter danger along the way, I can still reach Zhenhai City safely."
Another half-saint spoke up, his tone carrying a hint of self-recommendation.
For a time,
The deck erupted into another debate as a group of semi-saints volunteered to meet the chairman and receive the beacon for tracking the rebellious cultivators.
After all, this matter is relatively easy.
There's no need to directly confront the powerful members of the Black Spirit Tiger Shark Clan, and there's even a chance to gain the guild leader's favor.
On the other hand, going to the front lines was extremely dangerous, and no one was willing to go voluntarily.
After a heated debate among the semi-saints...
Ultimately, it was decided that the fastest traveler, Fengying Half-Venerable, would go to Zhenhai City to meet the Guild Master and receive the tracking jade talisman.
After the matter was agreed upon, a deathly silence instantly fell on the deck.
No one spoke.
The atmosphere was extremely oppressive.
Obviously,
None of the semi-saints wanted to go to the front lines, and none of them wanted to take on this dangerous task.
The reasons are simply twofold:
Firstly, being stationed at the front lines inevitably means engaging in direct combat with the powerful members of the Black Spirit Tiger Shark Clan. The Black Spirit Tiger Shark Clan possesses formidable strength and a large number of members.
Those who are stationed at the front lines are most likely fighting alone, without any allies to help them.
The slightest mistake could lead to instant death;
Secondly, whether he will achieve any military exploits while stationed at the front lines remains to be seen.
Even if there are military achievements, how are they calculated and distributed?
And whether these battle achievements will be counted in the selection process for the vacant Hall Master position at the Cultivator Association headquarters...
These are all still unclear; everything is unknown.
After all, their achievements in this battle were related to their status and power within the Cultivator Association.
The higher one's status, the more cultivation resources they control.
Not only is it greatly beneficial to their own cultivation,
It can also provide significant support to the sects behind them.
Moreover, the higher one's status, the more opportunities one has.
The greater the probability of breaking through to the Nascent Soul Realm in the future, the higher the chance of success.
Although breaking through to the Nascent Soul Realm ultimately requires both opportunity and talent, the higher one's status, the greater the chance of encountering such an opportunity.
Even if the probability is extremely low?
It's not entirely impossible.
therefore,
None of the semi-saints wanted to go to the front lines, nor did they want to risk their lives to do something with an uncertain future.
They didn't want to miss out on the vacant position of Palace Master at the association headquarters.
This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
If we miss this opportunity, we may never have another chance like it in our lifetime.
To take it a step further is even more difficult than climbing to the sky.
Seeing this scene,
The Celestial Pivot Half-Saint frowned, pondering for a long time.
He was also aware of the concerns and worries of the group of half-saints. If he were to assign them tasks by force, it would likely cause dissatisfaction among them and would be detrimental to the progress of subsequent missions.
After thinking for a moment...
The Celestial Pivot Half-Saint spoke slowly, his tone carrying a hint of discussion:
"I am aware of your concerns and understand the dangers of going to the front lines."
And the importance of the position of Palace Master to everyone.
How about this: fellow cultivators who rush to the front lines, in addition to their own battle merits,
We can also share a portion of the battle merits earned by all of us fellow cultivators in this mission as compensation.”
Hearing this,
The eyes of all the semi-saints on the deck lit up, and several of them were immediately tempted.
He would share a portion of the war merits, although it seemed he had no chance of competing for the position of Palace Master.
However, battle merits earned while commanding troops on the front lines can also be counted in this selection of the Palace Master...
That would greatly increase the chances of succeeding as the Palace Master.
This requires taking a gamble—
Success would not only bring rich military achievements, but also the opportunity to succeed as the Palace Master.
One's own cultivation level is improved.
The sect behind them will also benefit, and their chances of breaking through to the Nascent Soul Realm in the future will greatly increase.
If they lose, they can simply return to their branch and continue being a regional overlord. Although they won't get the position of Palace Master, there won't be any major losses.
At most, it will just mean a loss of some time and opportunities.
Thinking of this,
The first half-saint to be moved flashed a resolute glint in his eyes, and without the slightest hesitation, immediately spoke:
"If all fellow Daoists agree with Fellow Daoist Tian Shu's proposal and are willing to share a portion of their battle merits with those who went to the front lines..."
"Then I am willing to go to the front lines in the outer seas in place of all of you fellow Daoists, to oversee the overall situation, and to resist the attack of the Black Spirit Tiger Shark Clan."
"Excellent! Fellow Daoist, you truly have courage!"
A hint of approval flashed in Tian Shu's eyes, and he immediately echoed her sentiments.
"In that case, I'll leave the matter of going to the front lines to you, fellow Daoist."
We promise that a portion of the spoils from this mission will be shared with you, and we will never break our word.
The other half-gods also nodded in agreement.
After all, someone volunteered to go to the front lines and solve their problems, so they naturally had no objections.
Moreover, since it was only a share of the war merits, it wasn't a significant loss for them.
Just as Tian Shu, the Half-Venerable One, and others were discussing and finalizing the selection of those to go to the front lines and finalizing related matters...
Other semi-saint teams scattered throughout the void also received the latest decree from Guild Master Cheng Buzheng.
Similar scenes unfolded one after another on the warships of the various Demi-Saint squads—
The group of semi-elders argued endlessly, none of them willing to go to the front lines.
Yet they dared not disobey the chairman's orders.
final!
After weighing the pros and cons...
Each team presented a plan that would satisfy the half-respecters heading to the front lines, thus allaying their concerns.
Although this period was accompanied by considerable controversy...
Some squads even had minor clashes.
However, faced with the time limit set by Cheng Buzheng's decree, none of the semi-saints in each squad dared to slack off in the slightest.
after all!
The president's authority is not to be violated.
If the arrangements are not completed by the deadline, the consequences will be dire.
After all the semi-saint teams reached a consensus...
Each side selected one half-saint to go to the front line of the outer sea to oversee the overall situation and resist the attack of the Black Spirit Tiger Shark Clan.
At the same time, each side also dispatched a half-saint to Zhenhai City to meet with the guild leader Cheng Buzheng and receive the jade talisman to track down the remnants of the Wanxian Sect who were rebelling against the Dao.
For a time,
A figure flew out from each of the warships and sped towards Zhenhai City and the front line.
