I Can Upgrade My Talent Infinitely

If a Nascent Soul gets involved, things will get complicated.

"The Black Dragon Hall has its own conflicts with the Blood Spirit Sect, so it's unlikely they would help them directly. We don't need to overthink that." Lin Ke gestured for Fang Yun not to worry.

A Nascent Soul Influence isn't toppled so easily.

If the Purple Mist Sect were to truly fall, the other Spirit Refiner Core Formation Influences in the Qionglin Domain wouldn't be far from extinction.

"Oh, right, Fang Yun. Some of the Elders in our Purple Mist Sect are unhappy with you. If they come looking for you, just ignore them." Lin Ke suddenly brought this up, having thought of something.

Fang Yun heard this and nodded in understanding.

Some of the Purple Mist Sect's Elders were unhappy with him. Although Fang Yun didn't know the specific reason for their displeasure, he knew this was a completely normal phenomenon.

The Purple Mist Sect was a Nascent Soul Influence, a massive organization. It was acceptable that a small number of Elders were dissatisfied with him.

If a majority of the Elders were unhappy with him, then he would really have to figure out what was going on.

"Especially our sect's Elders of Alchemy," Lin Ke added.

Hearing this, Fang Yun quickly understood. "Is it because of the Alchemy for the Wind Ling Sect, Star Moon Valley, and Vast Sea Sect?"

Right now, our Celestial Cloud Sect is refining all the Third-Tier pills for those three Core Formation Sects.

And he personally handled all of the Celestial Cloud Sect's Third-Tier pill Refining.

The Purple Mist Sect's Elders of Alchemy need to refine Third-Tier pills to improve their own Alchemy standards.

"More or less."

"That's because my Alchemy skills are superb and my Alchemy Talent is powerful. If they're not satisfied, I don't mind having a competition with them." Fang Yun smiled as he said this.

As Alchemy Masters, they should let their Alchemy skills do the talking.

Within the Purple Mist Sect, he, the Sect Leader of the Celestial Cloud Sect, didn't need to keep a low profile. Otherwise, it would be difficult to negotiate with the Purple Mist Sect as equals later on.

By being high-profile, he could make future arrangements fall into place much more naturally.

"Besides the Elders of Alchemy and some of the Artifact Refining Elders, the remaining dissenters are simply unhappy that you've caused the Purple Mist Sect to draw fire. However, their reasoning doesn't hold water, so very few Elders support them.

Our conflict with the Blood Spirit Sect runs deep. Even if the Blood Spirit Sect doesn't move against us now, they will eventually. Plenty of similar incidents have occurred throughout history."

A Nascent Soul Influence with tens of thousands of years of history accumulates even more grievances and grudges.

As Lin Ke spoke, Fang Yun listened, occasionally adding a few words of agreement.

The last time Lin Ke visited the Celestial Cloud Sect, their long conversation revolved around the Celestial Cloud Sect. This time, it was all about the Purple Mist Sect.

Through Lin Ke's narrative, Fang Yun gained a deeper understanding of the Purple Mist Sect's history.

They started with the Purple Mist Sect, and the conversation eventually shifted to the entire Qionglin Domain.

At this point, Fang Yun asked, "We are at a disadvantage within the Qionglin Domain. Is the situation any better in other regions?"

By now, he knew a great deal about matters within the Qionglin Domain, but very little about the world outside it.

The Celestial Cloud Sect was developing steadily and would likely become a new Nascent Soul Influence in the future. Once it did, it would be a top-tier power in the Qionglin Domain, so it was definitely best to learn more about the situation in other domains.

"I don't know much about the situation in other regions. I only know that in this regard... the situation in the Red Cloud Domain, to our northeast, is much better than ours. But in the Crescent Domain, to our southeast, things are far, far worse."

Lin Ke was only relaying the information she knew.

In her understanding, the circumstances for Cultivators like them, who walked the path of Spiritual Power cultivation, were average at best in any given region. Some regions might not even have any 'normal' Cultivators like them at all.

"There are Lands of No Spirit between the regions. It's quite difficult for us to go to them, or for them to come to us."

Fang Yun nodded. He was already aware of this information.

These so-called Lands of No Spirit produce no Earth Veins, and there is nowhere within them to recover your Spiritual Power or any other kind of energy.

The Lands of No Spirit are vast. Therefore, to cross one, you must prepare a large supply of items that can restore Spiritual Power.

This wasn't a major issue for Fang Yun. He consumed Spiritual Power slowly, and now that he was in the Late-stage Core Formation, he could easily cross a Land of No Spirit even without replenishing any Spiritual Power.

Of the other regions near the Qionglin Domain, Lin Ke focused mainly on the Red Cloud Domain and the Crescent Domain.

These two major regions were not much different in size from the Qionglin Domain and should both be considered Central Domains.

"Fang Yun, if you can break your Core and form a Nascent Soul, becoming a Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator and making the Celestial Cloud Sect a Nascent Soul Level influence, our situation in the Qionglin Domain would surpass even that of the Red Cloud Domain."

"I'll do my best," Fang Yun replied.

'In my future plans, if the Celestial Cloud Sect became powerful enough, I would definitely consolidate the Qionglin Domain and raise the Celestial Cloud Sect's influence within it to one hundred percent.

That way, the bonus to my Talent Points could exceed 4,000%.

After I was done with the Qionglin Domain, the more distant future would naturally involve expanding outward.

But those future plans were still distant. For now, my two most immediate goals are, first, to cultivate to the peak of Late-stage Core Formation and then break through to the Peak of Core Formation, and second, to complete the Star Promotion for my Life Talent and reach Ten Stars.'

Before he settled in at the Purple Mist Sect, Lin Ke also took Fang Yun to see Cai Qingyan.

Gao Tianxing was currently on a mission in the Outer Sect. Otherwise, Lin Ke would have taken Fang Yun to see him as well.
