Chapter 244: The Disciples of the Divination Peak Get Work
After more than an hour of hard work, Qin Chuan found all of Masefield’s souls. There were more than 600 in total, and they were distributed all over the world.
Among them, 32 were the leaders of a country. Furthermore, more than half of them were very powerful.
Other than these 32 souls, the majority had infiltrated the management systems of many countries, especially the Bitver Empire. They were all high-ranking officials, and a few of them were even generals. Thus, they were qualified to activate nuclear weapons.
As long as there were enough nuclear weapons, they could blow up the entire world.
This was Masefield’s greatest source of confidence.
In addition to these identities, there were also super consortiums, just as Masefield said.
He controlled eight of the world’s top ten consortiums.
A consortium was not comparable to a country, but these were super consortiums.
Each super consortium could influence the economic lifeline of a country, but Masefield had eight. It was terrifying.
Other than consortiums, he controlled all kinds of religious and underground organizations.
The world-famous Dark Net was created by one of Masefield’s souls.
All of these were the bargaining chips in Masefield’s hands.
From this, one could see how deep his foundation was. It was no wonder he dared to challenge Qin Chuan.
After understanding the situation, Qin Chuan was startled too.
If Masefield had more time, he would have owned the world.
It made sense. After all, he had been given a few hundred years to develop. Even a pig would become a demon if they had that much time to live.
The current situation was very tricky.
Qin Chuan could instantly destroy all of Masefield’s souls, but all his souls shared the same thoughts.
The other souls must have learned about what had happened as well.
Given Masefield’s intelligence, he was definitely prepared to fight to the death.
Qin Chuan knew that it was very easy to kill Masefield, but Masefield must have nurtured some trusted aides.
If anything were to happen to him, those trusted aides would definitely carry out the missions he had given them.
So, to address the dangers posed by Masefield, Qin Chuan had to uproot all of Masefield’s connections.
This was a huge amount of work.
Qin Chuan couldn’t do it himself, as it would definitely alert Masefield.
If he were to act rashly, the gains would not make up for the losses.
Therefore, he could not do this himself.
Qin Chuan had already thought of some candidates—the disciples from the Divination specialization.
After the monsters awakened, only the Divination disciples did not participate in the battle.
With the divination arts they practiced, they were perfectly suitable to search for Masefield’s network of connections.
But before letting them do anything, he had to pave the way for them.
Qin Chuan silently chanted the incantation, and his eyes suddenly became Tai Chi symbols.
When he saw this, Masefield immediately had a bad feeling.
He was proud of himself earlier, but now, he was completely terrified.
Qin Chuan raised his hand, and Masefield was caught in his palm.
“Qin Chuan, don’t act recklessly. If you kill me, I will bury this entire world with me.”
Masefield panicked.
Although he still had other souls, judging from Qin Chuan’s current state, he obviously didn’t want to let him off.
Masefield didn’t want to die. He feared death more than anyone. He wanted to live forever.
Presently, the greyish-brown gas were like small snakes that coiled around Masefield’s body.
Masefield suddenly realized that he had lost contact with his souls, but he could still sense their presence.
This proved that they still existed.
At this moment, Qin Chuan released Masefield.
“What… what did you do to me?” Masefield shouted in horror.
“Nothing much. I’m just teaching you a small lesson.
“Let me remind you, don’t play any tricks behind my back.
“If you provoke me again, I can’t guarantee that I’ll be as calm as today. ”
After speaking, Qin Chuan left.
…
A day later, all the disciples of the sect had returned.
All of them gathered at the main peak’s training hall.
Qin Chuan stood on the platform.
In front of him, the twelve dead disciples lay quietly on the ground.
The disciples below lowered their heads as they mourned the death of their seniors and juniors. The atmosphere seemed rather heavy.
A few minutes later, Qin Chuan signaled for everyone to raise their heads. He had something to say next.
“Everything, I believe that all of you should have heard of the cause of death of these few brothers.
“We should learn our lesson from this.
“As immortal cultivators, we will attract the admiration or jealousy of others.
“As the saying goes, one should never have the intention to harm others, but one should always guard against others.
“People are unpredictable.
“I want everyone to learn from this and to be on your guard at all times. Do not let tragedy repeat itself.
“The path of cultivation is not smooth sailing, but full of hardships.
“Everyone should not lose their passion for cultivation because of this matter.
“At the end of the day, you are strong when you’re not affected by tricks that others play behind your back.”
The disciples listened attentively and remembered these words in their hearts.
Not long after, Qin Chuan unleashed his True Fire and cremated those disciples.
After they were done, Qin Chuan asked the disciples of the various peaks about the recent battles against the monsters.
After asking around, the threat from the monsters and experimental subjects had gradually decreased. Most of the monsters had returned to the oceans, while the experimental subjects were concentrated in Tu State and Dai State.
The next step of the plan was to clear the experimental subjects in those states.
Qin Chuan emphasized once again that everyone must not slack off. They must stay vigilant.
Then, he dismissed the disciples.
Not long after, Qin Chuan arrived at the Divination Peak.
The disciples of the Divination Peak were astonished when they saw Qin Chuan.
Is there work for us?
They thought.
In an instant, the disciples of the Divination peak rubbed their fists and palms, eager to give it a go. Their eyes were filled with anticipation.
Ever since the monsters awakened, the disciples of the other peaks had more or less participated in battle. Only the disciples of the Divination Peak stayed in the sect and never went out.
Every time the disciples of the other peaks returned, they would talk about how intense and exciting the battle was.
Although the disciples of the Divination Peak were not suited for battle, after Qin Chuan established the miscellaneous academy, they had cultivated many spells.
Even though their combat strength could not compare to the disciples of the Combat Peak, they would have no issues defeating monsters with their divination techniques.
Qin Chuan was aware of this. He had originally planned to let the disciples of the Divination Peak go out to temper themselves.
Now, there was a training program that was suitable for them.
Presently, all the divination disciples gathered in the training hall, staring at Qin Chuan with burning gazes, their hearts filled with anticipation.
Qin Chuan didn’t waste any more words. He directly stated his purpose for coming and explained the situation regarding the twelve dead disciples.
When the disciples of the Divination Peak heard this, they expressed their desire to avenge their fellow disciples.
“Sect Master, don’t worry. We will definitely complete the mission perfectly.”
The disciples of the Divination Peak had firm gazes. They patted their chests and promised loudly.
Qin Chuan nodded in agreement.
He divided them into groups of three.
Then, he divided all of Masefield’s souls equally among the groups.
“Disciples, each group’s current mission is to find all the connections of the people in your hands.
“Some of them are the leaders of the various countries and super consortiums.
“For such people with great authority, you have to be extremely careful and check a few more times.” Qin Chuan instructed.
“We understand. We will definitely not disappoint Sect Master.”
The disciples of the Divination Peak said solemnly.
“If you encounter any problems or questions during the process, tell me as soon as possible.”
“We understand.”
“Then I won’t say anything else. You can begin.”
Just like that, the disciples of the Divination Peak sat down and used divination techniques to search for the connections of Masefield’s souls.
Qin Chuan left the sect and flew towards the south.
