Chapter 564: Chapter 369: It’s Done! Master Yunyang Erupts!
Seeking to sell a Tier Four Cave Mansion?
As soon as these words were spoken, Master Cangming immediately furrowed his brows.
The Tier Four Cave Mansion on Jiuyi Mountain cannot be moved and can only be used atop the summit of Jiuyi Mountain.
If it were sold, wouldn’t that mean giving away one-third of Jiuyi Mountain to the Thousand Scripture Pavilion?
This is not merely seeking to sell a cave mansion; it’s clearly extortion, attempting to profit from one-third of Jiuyi Mountain.
"Fellow Daoist, do not jest. How can there be a rationale where two sects practice on a single mountain gate?"
Master Cangming squinted slightly, speaking with a hint of coldness.
"Haha, a mountain-breaking sect is something unheard of for thousands of years; what harm in having an extra mountain with dual cultivation?"
Upon hearing this, Master Lingfu merely laughed.
In his heart, he also felt dissatisfied.
How can one allow others to snore beside their bed?
The Thousand Waves Sect and Cyan Peak Daoist School, without saying a word, suddenly ambushed the Celestial Demon Sect and occupied Jiuyi Mountain, revealing the two sects’ ambitious intentions.
With no True Immortal present, it’s currently the perfect opportunity for us at the Thousand Scripture Pavilion to strive and practice extensively. The Celestial Demon Sect not only historically diverted some attention away from the Thousand Scripture Pavilion, as neither sect was from the Profound Sect, but the two could coexist without interfering with each other.
However, now the "bandit" neighbors have suddenly been replaced with "officials"—who could accept this?
Therefore, the purpose of his visit was not only to observe the situation but also to gather fellow cultivators to possibly disrupt and sabotage this "mountain-breaking sect" event.
Unfortunately, the two sects acted so swiftly and decisively. Had he gotten the news sooner, perhaps the Celestial Demon Sect could have been saved.
As it stands, lamenting over the already replaced Celestial Demon Sect is useless.
"Are you suggesting, Fellow Daoist, that you do not wish for us to occupy Jiuyi Mountain?"
"Is this your personal thought, or a decision by the Thousand Scripture Pavilion?"
Upon hearing this, Master Cangming did not get angry but instead asked cautiously.
But Master Lingfu did not answer directly. He just laughed and said, "If you can occupy Jiuyi Mountain, the Thousand Scripture Pavilion will naturally welcome it with both hands and offer congratulations. However, several Fellow Daoists here are old friends with the Celestial Demon Sect. Since you have occupied the mountain without prior notice, you might need to explain things to these Fellow Daoists, don’t you think?"
"Indeed, the Nine Flames Demon King was a close friend of mine. Now with his life or death unknown, how can I just let this go? You must provide an explanation!"
Upon these words, the Heaven-Cleansing Lark immediately spoke in agreement.
"There is a Profound Yin Ancient Wood within Jiuyi Mountain, which I loaned to the Nine Flames Demon King hundreds of years ago. Now that Fellow Daoist Nine Flames is missing, it is only right to return this tree to me!"
The Cyan Spiritual Crane immediately spoke, directly stating her purpose.
Upon these words, the elder of the Dipping God Sect immediately raised his head, looking at the Cyan Spiritual Crane with surprise, but quickly followed by saying:
"There is an outer expanse of Jiuyi Mountain containing eighteen Spirit Peaks and six large Spirit Fields, which the Dipping God Sect previously lent to the Celestial Demon Sect. Now that this sect has perished, these Spirit Peaks and fields should be returned to the Dipping God Sect!"
Hearing this, Master Cangming managed to suppress his anger, merely sneering as he said, "Is there any contract of restriction to prove ownership?"
"Over the long years, the contract has been lost, but the Nine Flames Demon King was quite powerful, and the Cave Mansion filled with mighty Spiritual Qi. If we can enter the Nine Flames Demon King’s Cave Mansion, we should be able to find that contract to verify ownership."
The Cyan Spiritual Crane immediately responded, her true intention obvious.
"Do you also wish to enter the mountain to search?"
Upon hearing this, Master Cangming once again turned to Master Lingfu.
"These fellow Daoists, having lost a dear friend, are understandably agitated and have spoken fervently. Fellow Daoist Cangming, there is no need for anger."
"If Fellow Daoist is willing to sell a Tier Four Cave Mansion, the Thousand Scripture Pavilion would gladly act as a mediator to ease the grudges between your sect and these Fellow Daoists."
Master Lingfu said with a smile, though the veiled threat in his tone was clear.
"Why waste words on him, Fellow Daoist? Let’s take action directly, avenge Fellow Daoist Nine Flames, reclaim our treasures, and the Thousand Scripture Pavilion shall gain the Tier Four Spiritual Land."
Seeing that the Thousand Scripture Pavilion seemed unwilling to completely offend the Cangming Daoist, continually engaging in "transaction and division" acts, the Cyan Spiritual Crane couldn’t remain silent.
With a long cry, cyan clouds churned behind her and a giant crane shadow appeared, its azure beak shimmering with brilliant Spiritual Light, like a sword piercing the heavens, suddenly pecking at the Flowing Flame Celestial Curtain ahead.
"Take action!"
"Avenge Fellow Daoist Nine Flames!"
The Heaven-Cleansing Lark and the elder of the Dipping God Sect also let out long cries at once. In an instant, fiery clouds filled the sky, poisonous creatures surged, and the entire Celestial Vault was shrouded by anomalies, attacking the Flowing Flame Celestial Curtain together with the Cyan Spiritual Crane.
Seeing this, Ascendant Lingfu sighed deeply, "So be it. One cannot allow others to snore beside their bed. Since offense has been given, might as well turn it utterly chaotic!"
With that said, he let out a long cry, sound waves echoing. Behind him, a cyan "abyss" emerged, seemingly imbued with infinite suction, suddenly pulling towards the Flowing Flame Celestial Curtain in front of them.
Furthermore, with a wave of his sleeve, a Command Sword flew out, heading towards the mountain gate of the Thousand Scripture Pavilion.
"Boom!"
Although the Flowing Flame Celestial Curtain is a Tier Four Array, the four opponents before them wield the power of Daoist Embryo, and together they are fearsome indeed, causing the heavens and earth to turn upside down with the Grand Array trembling.
The golden flowing flames on it extinguish one by one, and the descending barrier seems on the brink of shattering at any moment.
Amidst the array, atop the Spirit Pillar, Master Cangming held the Array Disc, his Dao Origin Magical Power surging rapidly, struggling to control the Grand Array and maintain the barrier’s unbroken state.
But even for a true Tier Four Array, it might not withstand the combined strength of four Daoist Embryo cultivators, much less this simplified version of the Celestial Sun Profound Light Array?
"Boom!"
