Tai Chi and Zifang both had weird expressions as they looked at Zhao Yanran. However, they didn't say anything.
Cang Shengdao's survival didn't have much to do with the Buddhist Faction, so Zifang didn't care.
However, it did have something to do with the Kenzō Sect. In the past, the two of them were interdependent.
However, since the Kenzō Sect was prepared to move a portion of their foundations to the Yuanren World.
Then, whether Cang Shengdao lived or died, they could just coldly look on from the side. At most, when the situation allowed, they could help in the dark.
In the past, they were worried that Zong Shou would be affected by Cang Shengdao's destruction.
After all, the two of them had a really good relationship. Zong Shou and the Taoist Faction also had huge animosity.
If Cang Shengdao died, the Taoist Faction might attack Da Qian.
However, now that they knew that Zong Shou was the top heir of the Sky Burning Lu Family, the two of them naturally didn't have any worries.
The Taoist Faction didn't have a solid reason to attack, so the chances of them attacking were really low.
In the past, they attacked Zong Shou viciously many times and they could say that they didn't know about it.
However, if they attacked for no reason, they would be targeting the Lu Family and not placing the Sky Burning Saint Dynasty in their eyes.
This was why the two of them could only sigh emotionally towards Cang Shengdao's situation and there wasn't much they could say.
Zong Shou also kept silent. However, he knew that this wasn't the time to speak.
He decided to change the topic and directly talk about other matters.
How many cultivators did the Kenzō Sect, the Buddhist Faction, and Cang Shengdao need to send each year to serve under him? There was also the number of casualties allowed each year. When Da Qian was attacked, the disciples of the three factions needed to work together to defend.
It took half a day to settle all the details. Feng Taiji and Zifang knew that Zong Shou was so busy that his feet didn't touch the ground. After he was satisfied, he tactfully took his leave.
However, before he left, Tai Chi hesitated and reminded, "I heard that Ruler is prepared to return to the Cloud World? Forgive me for being direct, but the Cloud World is in chaos. After Ruler returns, your life might be in danger. I advise Monarch to postpone the trip. "
When Zifang heard that, he nodded his head, "Those words are good, ruler please consider it."
Zong Shou just smiled and said nothing. Just by looking at his expression, Tai Chi and Li Qiye knew that they would not be able to persuade him.
They weren't that disappointed. In their eyes, Zong Shou returning to the Cloud World was risky. But it wasn't a big deal.
The combined forces of the Kenzō Sect and Buddhist sects were more than enough to protect Zong Shou.
Even if the Dao Sects were to make things difficult for them, they would be able to fight back.
Since they couldn't dissuade him, they decisively shut their mouths and left.
Only Zhao Yanran was left to accompany Zong Shou.
The latter frowned and was in deep thought, keeping silent for a long time. She finally opened her mouth and asked, "What are my few Senior Brothers planning? They are obviously in danger, but they sent so much manpower to Yuanren World. Are they really prepared to give up on the Cloud World and Common People's Vast Habitat? "
Zhao Yanran's expression was dim. When she heard that, her eyes were filled with bitterness, "Wei Xu noticed that something wasn't right when he broke through his tribulation 4 months ago. However, at that time, he couldn't back down. His tribulation was set and he couldn't back down. He was prepared to leave alone. At that time, the calamity would only affect him and he could ensure that Cang Shengdao had a chance to rise up. However, he was caught by Ancestral Master Xiuguan on the way. He said that if Cang Shengdao missed him, then sooner or later they would be wiped out. Sooner or later, there isn't much difference. Why not go all out and have a chance. "
Zong Shou's brows furrowed even tighter.
Since he made up his mind to go all out, then he shouldn't have sent people who weren't strong enough to this side to split their strength.
"The other few Elders also said the same thing and agreed with Xiuguan. Wei Xu was helpless and could only stay. However, after learning about the changes here, especially after you have taken down dozens of worlds, they were delighted. In the end, they decided on this plan. At that time, Xiuguan didn't object. "
Zhao Yanran tried her best to be calm, "This portion of people were sent over by the Common People's Vast Habitat. Later on, the 3 sects and 6 schools will send more disciples over. However, most of them are Earth Grade disciples. "
Her tone was filled with sadness. Just now, she purposely reported a lot less.
Cang Shengdao, a sect that was about to fall, took up 13% of the rights in the Da Qian Celestial Dynasty. It was already a little too much, exceeding the Kenzō Sect and on the same level as the Buddhist Faction.
If it was any more, it would make these 2 sects unhappy.
She had cultivated for dozens of years and this was the first time she faced such a situation. It was also the first time she had to be so careful like she was walking on thin ice.
Zong Shoxin's heart turned cold once more.
Senior Master Xiuguan didn't object? Which meant that even Senior Master didn't have high hopes for this battle?
This was why he chose to silently agree to Wei Xu arranging a path for Cang Shengdao.
Apart from shock, he was also at a loss.
In his memory, Wei Xu should have passed the revered position to that person when the Cloud World spiritual wave was at its peak.
A few thousand years later, although Cang Shengdao didn't prosper, it would be able to maintain its orthodoxy and stand side by side with the Taoist Faction.
Why did it suddenly have such a life and death calamity?
Was it because of him?
Zong Shoxin's emotions were in turmoil. He tried to calm himself down but there was no effect.
He knew that it was because of him that things in the world changed too much. After a chain reaction, there were such changes.
At this moment, the memories of the last life were totally useless.
"It won't be so simple to wipe out Cang Shengdao!"
Thinking back to Lin Xuanshuang, who was nowhere to be found, Zong Shou shook his head.
This was also one of the variables that the Taoist Faction wouldn't have thought about. His Master had successfully broken free from her tribulation and stepped into the End Realm, rebuilding her body.
Lin Xuanshuang had already deduced that Wei Xu was going to change his plans. Naturally, there was no reason for her not to see the dangers within.
Who knew where she went? Was she going to heal up or was she working hard to save Cang Shengdao?
Anyways, he couldn't sit still and watch on.
"At most, in 10 days, I will personally make a trip to the Cloud World!"
At this moment, it was useless to think about how to fight for a chance of survival for Cang Shengdao. He needed to return to the Cloud World to take a look at the specific situation before making plans.
When Zhao Yanran heard this, she wasn't happy but worried instead. Her brows furrowed, "The Revered One wants you to stay here. Wait for the outcome and there is no need to return. If he is lucky enough to succeed, then naturally everything is good. However, if not, then Cang Shengdao needs you to take care of him. Today, only you, Zong Shou, have such ability … "
Zong Shou was lazy to say more and didn't plan to argue with her.
Zhao Yanran's words not only didn't make him give up on returning, but instead made him more anxious and impatient.
After sending away Zhao Yanran, Zong Shou returned. However, he didn't go to the warm room that he used to deal with administrative matters. Instead, he walked into his sleeping palace.
Sitting cross-legged, Zong Shou was in deep thought.
This time he had an army but he couldn't bring it back.
The only thing that could help Cang Shengdao was the power of the Da Qian Sect within the Cloud World. It should be able to restrict the Taoist Faction.
Next would be his own body. Initial Celestial Realm, barely able to beat some God Realm Cultivators.
In this battle, it wasn't worth mentioning.
However, apart from that, he had another advantage – World Burning Blood Eye!
This eye technique might be helpful to Cang Shengdao. Locking down space, seeing the enemy's true situation etc.
However, if he wanted to bring out the full potential of the Blood Eye Technique, he would need to reach a higher realm.
Next would be King Path Martial Arts!
Attacking the Celestial World to obtain this relay point. It could allow his country strength and King Energy to partially affect the Cloud World.
However, if he didn't have a certain level of cultivation and foundations, even if he controlled billions of worlds, it would be useless.
Unless his Martial Path Intent could be raised a little and he had a stronger cultivator. Only then would he be able to use King Path Martial Arts and some secret techniques to temporarily have strength comparable to Saint Realm Cultivators in the Cloud World.
However, one had to cultivate bitterly, step by step. It was tough to find a shortcut.
He had just reached Celestial Realm not long ago. Originally, he needed dozens of years of accumulation before he could advance once more.
However, the bloodline mutation in the Nine Extreme Death Jail allowed him to have enough Dao Cultivation Accumulation.
At this moment, he coincidentally grasped a technique that could quickly raise his cultivation without many problems.
He took out the Book of Eon Extreme Life. He flipped it to the fifth page.
Zong Shou hesitated once more.
The Book of Eon had a total of nine pages, corresponding to Body, Earth, Heaven, Spirit, Celestial, God, Saint, End, and True Realms.
At this moment, his cultivation corresponded to the fifth page.
Not long ago in Cangling World, not long after he broke through to Celestial Realm, he had already flipped it open.
Apart from more profound Fate and Time Techniques, there were also two techniques that were really important to Zong Shou.
One was to control the Book of Eon, to throw in more Mind Stones and Celestial Stones to increase the speed of time by a hundred times.
However, the consumption ratio wasn't at a multiplicative level, but at a geometric level!
It consumed so much that even Zong Shou felt heartache. It wasn't worth it at all.
The other was to turn back time.
It could cause the soul of the caster to return to a certain period of time. To fully recover and experience everything he had seen.
However, he couldn't move and couldn't do anything. He could only look on.
It also required more Celestial Stones and Spells, but Zong Shou didn't lack any of that. However, apart from that, he also needed to consume 300 years of lifespan.
Before this, Zong Shou had been hesitating and unwilling to do so. At this moment, he had no choice.
"It really makes one feel conflicted! After stepping into the Celestial Realm, I finally gained 4,000 years of lifespan. This time, I will probably use it all up … "
From Spirit Realm to Celestial Realm, depending on one's talents, it would increase lifespan by 1,600 to 2,000 years.
Zong Shou's physical body was similar to the Indestructible Body of a God Realm Expert and was recorded in the Mysterious Golden Life Book.
This was why the moment he entered the Celestial Realm, his lifespan increased by 4,000 years.
If his calculations were correct, then this time, he would need to consume at least 3,000 years of lifespan.
Breaking out into a laugh, Zong Shou closed the Book of Eon.
It wasn't that he wanted to back out, but that he had made up his mind. He would use these 3,000 years of lifespan to take a gamble.
However, to use this technique, he needed a long time to calm down and he also needed experts like Ao Kun to protect him. He still had many things to do and it wasn't time yet. (To be continued.
