"They're both geniuses who can impress the higher-ups of Blue Cloud Pavilion. When they grow up, they'll definitely influence the overall situation! However, it's precisely because the two of them are so similar that it can't be two tigers on the same mountain. Ma Mufan deliberately causing trouble for us today is proof of that. So, when Boss Lin Yi returns, everyone, including Jia Mufan, will have to make a decision in time to support Ma Mufan or Boss Lin Yi! "Li Zhengming became more and more certain as he spoke.
"In other words, Jia Mufan has already decided to support Boss Lin Yi?" Xiao Ran's heart skipped a beat. This was a rare piece of good news. After all, Jia Mufan was a truly important figure in Blue Cloud Pavilion. His status was even higher than some of the elders of Blue Cloud Pavilion!
"Looks like it." Lu Bianren nodded, but then he asked doubtfully, "But why would he make such a choice? If he waited for Junior Brother Lin to return, it wouldn't be strange for him to make such a choice. But now that Junior Brother Lin's life is uncertain, isn't he afraid of angering that arrogant and despotic Ma Zhuo?"
"I think he's betting on something other than Boss Lin Yi, but someone else," Li Zhengming said in a low voice.
"Who is that?" Lu Bianren and Xiao Ran asked at the same time.
"The Soaring Sky Pavilion's Pavilion Master, Shangguan Tianhua!" Li Zhengming's answer was shocking. However, when they thought about it carefully, they found that it made sense.
Everyone in the Three Great Pavilions knew that Lin Yi had a close relationship with Shanghai Laner. What's more, he was a genius that Shanghai Tianhua had personally appointed. So basically, everyone automatically added the two words "Shangguan" to Lin Yi's name. This could also be understood as offending Lin Yi was offending Shanghai Tianhua, and expressing goodwill to Lin Yi was expressing goodwill to Shanghai Tianhua.
"According to your analysis, Zhengming, Senior Brother Jia really has a big plan. But then again, Senior Brother Jia. If even someone like him can't sit in that position, then I'm afraid no one in the world can. "Lu Bianren sighed with emotion.
Xiao Ran nodded. Although he didn't say it out loud, they already knew what Jia Mufan wanted to do.
Under normal circumstances, a senior disciple who was in charge of the inner sanctum of the Blue Cloud Pavilion would not have any interaction with Shanghai Tianhua, the pavilion master of the Soaring Sky Pavilion. However, there was one exception, and that was when he had set his sights on the position of the pavilion master of the Blue Cloud Pavilion!
According to the rules passed down from their ancestors, anyone who wanted to be the Cabinet Master of any of the Three Pavilions must pass the decision of the North Island Elders, especially the support of the Cabinet Masters of the other two Pavilions. Not a single one could be omitted.
Based on Jia Mufan's current strength and status, although he was still far from the position of Clear Cloud Pavilion's Pavilion Lord, based on his experience, when his strength reached a certain level, it wasn't impossible for him to fight for the position. Jia Mufan was planning for a rainy day ah.
Lu Bianren, Xiao Ran, and Li Zhengming left after a long discussion. With their current strength and level, they were still far away from Jia Mufan, let alone the position of the pavilion master of the Blue Cloud Pavilion.
No matter what. Jia Mufan's choice was a good thing for them. After all, it was equivalent to having a strong ally. What they needed to do next was to recuperate and cultivate well, waiting for Lin Yi to come back. An eye for an eye!
… …
Five Poisons Swamp, South Island.
Stepping on the broad back of the Five Evils Dragon, Lin Yi had been cultivating surrounded by the murderous aura of the Five Elements for more than three months, just like before. Recently, Lin Yi gradually found that the effect of the murderous aura of the Five Elements on his cultivation was constantly weakening. At least, it was not as fast as it was at the beginning.
At the same time, the result of the three months' cultivation was … Lin Yi's strength had successfully broken through from the Early-stage of the Nascent Soul Realm to the peak of the Early-stage of the Nascent Soul Realm!
He only leveled up one level in three months. This progress was obviously much slower than before, but it was still very gratifying. First, Lin Yi did not take any elixirs during the process. It was a pure breakthrough, which was commendable. Second, the higher the level, the more difficult it was to make a breakthrough. Naturally, it would take a longer time. This was an eternal truth.
For ordinary people, it would take dozens of years for a Golden Core Stage expert to level up. Once they reached the Original Infant Stage, this time span would be more than a hundred years. It was normal for most Original Infant Stage experts not to level up for hundreds of years. In comparison, Lin Yi was able to level up one level in just three months. This in itself was already very impressive!
Lin Yi was not a greedy person, but this was a rare opportunity. Merely reaching the peak of the Early Nascent Soul Stage was not enough to satisfy him. He had to continue cultivating and continue to break through.
However, if he wanted to level up, the murderous aura of the Five Elements in this place was not enough. Lin Yi immediately said to the Five Evils Dragon, "Go up a little more. I need stronger murderous aura of the Five Elements!"
"I'm afraid that's not possible …" The Five Evils Dragon said.
"Why? Could it be that even you can't withstand the murderous aura of the Five Elements? " Lin Yi was stunned. However, after thinking about it carefully, he realized that this was not possible. Previously, the Five Evils Dragon was swimming freely in the swamp. Even though the murderous aura was densely packed in the middle layer, the murderous aura of the Five Elements was not a threat to it at all. Instead, the murderous aura of the Five Elements scared it away.
"Of course I can. However, even if I go up, it will be of no use to you." The Five Evils Dragon shook its head and said.
"What do you mean?" Lin Yi was confused. Right now, he needed even stronger murderous aura of the Five Elements to aid in his cultivation. This didn't even require him to go up to the middle layer. All he had to do was fly up a little bit. How could it be of no use to him?
"Roar, roar. Even if I explain it to you like this, you won't understand. You'll understand when you go up." As soon as the Five Evils Dragon finished speaking, it flapped its wings and flew up a little bit. Then, it stopped. Although it hadn't reached the middle layer, the murderous aura of the Five Elements around it was much stronger and more numerous than before.
Lin Yi was quite satisfied. However, just as he was about to start cultivating, he suddenly realized that something was wrong. He couldn't help but cry out in surprise, "How could this be?"
Before this, all the murderous auras of the Five Elements that Lin Yi had encountered, regardless of whether they were strong or weak, were single-minded. Basically, as long as they sensed Lin Yi's aura, and as long as Lin Yi didn't use his primary energy to cover his body, they would immediately attack. Unless Lin Yi escaped or the murderous aura of the Five Elements gradually dissipated in the process, they would definitely not stop until one of them died.
