The large sects would speak up for the small sects and fight for the benefits of the small sects. The small sects would support the large sects and increase the influence of the large sects. This was the relationship between the large sects and the small sects.
In the Sword Spirit Realm, the various small sects would also rely on the cultivation techniques they cultivated to find a large sect to rely on. The large sects would also rely on the cultivation techniques they cultivated to protect the small sects so that the small sects would support them even more.
Although the Scouring Sea Sect wasn't a pure sword cultivation sect, it was publicly acknowledged in the Sword Spirit Boundary that the predecessor of the Scouring Sea Sect was the Sword Controlling Sect. The Sword Controlling Sect was a pure sword cultivation sect. Because of this, it was understandable that the Sword Cultivation Alliance would look for the Scouring Sea Sect and make them their leader.
After the Scouring Sea Sect and the Sword Cultivation Alliance made their statements, the matter of the Scouring Sea Sect becoming the leader of the Sword Cultivation Alliance suddenly calmed down. No other sects came forward to make irresponsible remarks. The large sects also didn't express any stance on this matter and didn't suppress the Scouring Sea Sect or the Sword Dao Alliance. This was really beyond the expectations of the Demon Sword Sect and the Evil Ghost Sect. They didn't think that this matter would be raised so high and then put down so easily.
This was especially true for the Demon Sword Sect. They originally planned that if the large sects really suppressed the Scouring Sea Sect or the Sword Cultivation Alliance, they would also take action and teach the Sword Cultivation Alliance a lesson. They believed that at that time, the Scouring Sea Sect that was being suppressed by the large sects wouldn't be able to interfere with the matters of the Sword Cultivation Alliance. At that time, the people of the Sword Cultivation Alliance would naturally know that the Scouring Sea Sect was unreliable. At that time, as long as the Demon Sword Sect came forward, the various sects of the Sword Cultivation Alliance would naturally lean towards them.
However, they didn't expect that the Scouring Sea Sect and the Sword Cultivation Alliance would only rely on two statements to make the large sects remain silent. This caused their plan to be aborted once again.
The Demon Sword Sect's people didn't understand why those large sects would suppress the Sea Exploration Sect, allowing it to grow from a small sect to its current state.
After issuing this statement, the Sea Exploring Sect and the Sword Cultivator Alliance didn't stay idle. They immediately began to investigate how this news got out. It didn't take long before they found out that this news was released by the Evil Ghost Sect. However, Laura denied the Sword Cultivator Alliance's suggestion to retaliate against the Evil Ghost Sect. This was because Laura and the others knew that the Evil Ghost Sect wasn't the only one involved in this matter. There was also the shadow of the Demon Sword Sect behind the scenes. For the Demon Sword Sect to get this news, it was certain that the Sword Cultivator Alliance's higher-ups were bribed or controlled by the Demon Sword Sect. Otherwise, this wouldn't have happened.
Therefore, after this news passed, Laura immediately ordered the various sects of the Sword Cultivator Alliance to investigate themselves. First, they had to find the Demon Sword Sect's spies in their sects. Then, they would talk about other things.
The various sects of the Sword Cultivator Alliance also felt that something was wrong. Just as Laura said, the news of Zhao Hai becoming the Sword Cultivator Alliance's Alliance Master was a secret. Not many people knew about it. So, how did this news get to the ears of the Demon Sword Sect? This really made people suspicious.
When the people of the Sword Cultivator Alliance started to investigate the spies in their sects, many of the people who had been bribed by the Demon Sword Sect were exposed. These people were either captured, killed when they resisted, or ran away when they heard the news. Among these people, there were a few who were really in the upper echelons of the Sword Cultivator Alliance. This made the various sects of the Sword Cultivator Alliance hate the Demon Sword Sect even more.
Naturally, Laura didn't completely believe them. In Laura's opinion, there were certainly spies from the Demon Sword Sect in those sword cultivator sects. It was even possible that those sword cultivator sects were completely controlled by the Demon Sword Sect. Just like the Eight Sword Sect, they completely relied on the Demon Sword Sect. Once they found out that the situation wasn't right, their entire sect would turn to the Demon Sword Sect.
However, Laura wasn't prepared to investigate further. If she did, it might cause the other sects of the Sword Cultivator Alliance to feel disgusted. There was no need to do so. However, this didn't mean that the matter was over. Laura was very clear that this matter wasn't over yet. Once the Sea Exploring Sect was stronger, and once Zhao Hai thought that they were ready, this matter would be resolved once and for all. At that time, they would only have one enemy to deal with, the Demon Sword Sect. As long as the Demon Sword Sect was destroyed, those who relied on the Demon Sword Sect would naturally be nothing.
However, Laura was very clear that now wasn't the time. Although they relied on the two statements to get through this crisis, the Sea Exploring Sect had become the focus of attention of the other sects. In the following period of time, they would need to be more low-key in their actions.
Low-key wasn't just for show. Laura didn't only keep a low profile, she also told the Sword Cultivator Alliance to keep a low profile and not cause any trouble.
Naturally, Laura was very clear that they still had two enemies. The first was the Demon Sword Sect. Not only did the Demon Sword Sect have a grudge with the Sea Exploring Sect, they also wanted to regain control of the Sword Cultivator Alliance. Therefore, the Demon Sword Sect wouldn't let the Sword Cultivator Alliance off.
The second was the Evil Ghost Sect. The Evil Ghost Sect had been the most diligent in dealing with Zhao Hai's group. Therefore, they already had a deep enmity with the Sea Exploring Sect. Naturally, they wouldn't let Zhao Hai's group off.
But now, they could only keep a low profile. This was because they didn't want to provoke a third enemy, which was the other sects. The Sword Cultivator Alliance had already become a thorn in the eyes of the other sects. If they didn't keep a low profile, then they would be looking for trouble.
However, if the Demon Sword Sect and the Evil Ghost Sect really wanted to deal with them, then they wouldn't need to worry about anything. This was because Zhao Hai was very clear that if the Demon Sword Sect and the Evil Ghost Sect really wanted to deal with them, then the other sects wouldn't care. This was because the other sects were hoping that both sides would suffer.
Because of Zhao Hai becoming the Sword Cultivator Alliance's Leader, the entire Sword Spirit World became lively for a while. In the end, it slowly calmed down. This was because everyone knew that this was already a fact. No one could change it, so they could only accept their fate.
The strength of the Sea Exploration Sect wasn't weak. Although the Sword Cultivator Alliance had lost a lot of strength, they weren't weak either. It wouldn't be easy to deal with them right now.
The entire continent was strangely quiet once again. The other sects were now staring at the Demon Sect. They didn't have too much time to care about the Sea Exploration Sect. This was because the Sea Exploration Sect was also their ally. If they really went against the Demon Sect in the future, then the Sea Exploration Sect would certainly help them. Therefore, they couldn't deal with the Sea Exploration Sect right now. Otherwise, they would only turn the Sea Exploration Sect into their enemy.
After knowing that the Sea Exploration Sect had become the Sword Cultivator Alliance's Leader, Master Hui Neng and Daoist Tian Xuan came to the Sea Exploration Sect to see Zhao Hai. On one hand, they wanted to congratulate Zhao Hai. On the other hand, they naturally wanted to tell Zhao Hai about the Demon Sect. They wanted to see what kind of attitude Zhao Hai had towards the Demon Sect.
Although Zhao Hai was busy with the formation, he couldn't neglect these two. He directly met the two and expressed his attitude. Naturally, he would stand with the Righteous Sects.
Hearing Zhao Hai's words, the two felt relieved. After the two left, Zhao Hai handed the matter of the Sea Exploration Sect over to Laura while he went to refine artifacts.
Time passed by bit by bit. The Sword Spirit World was now in a very strange state. The Evil Ghost Sect wanted to deal with the Sea Exploration Sect and the Sword Cultivator Alliance. However, they didn't have the ability to do so. The last time they attacked the Sea Exploration Sect, they had already suffered heavy losses. They needed to rest for a while.
On the other hand, the Demon Sword Sect also wanted to deal with the Sword Cultivator Alliance. However, they had some misgivings about the Sea Exploration Sect. Naturally, there was another point. The other Great Sects were now eyeing them. If the Demon Sword Sect dared to attack the other Sects like how they attacked the Iron Buddha Temple, then the other Great Sects would certainly make a move.
It was precisely because of this concern that the Demon Sword Sect didn't make a move. This caused the entire Sword Spirit World to calm down. It was as if it had really returned to how it was before. Everyone was doing business peacefully, and nothing happened.
On the other hand, the Scouring Sea Sect became even more low-key. The Sword Tomb and the Iron Buddha Temple were also very low-key. Not a single disciple could be seen coming out from these two places. The entire Scouring Sea Sect was like a mouse that drilled into the ground. It suddenly disappeared in front of everyone without any movement.
But now, no one dared to look down on the Sea Exploration Sect. Although the Sea Exploration Sect didn't make any moves, their strength and influence were still there. No one dared to look down on them.
The Great Sects were still expanding. They established small sects in places where they could establish small sects. Almost all the Rogue Cultivators in the Sword Spirit World were taken in. In just a short time, one couldn't see any Rogue Cultivators in the Sword Spirit World. Even the Rogue Cultivators of the past were now people with sects.
However, the Sea Exploring Sect wasn't present among these people. It seems like the sect didn't accept many Rogue Cultivators and didn't have any intention of expanding. Looking at their appearance, it seems like they only wanted to focus on their own development. They didn't establish any small sects. This made the other sects puzzled, but they didn't say anything. The development of the Sea Exploring Sect was their own business, nobody else would care. In fact, the weaker the Sea Exploring Sect was, the better it would be for the other sects. This meant that the threat of the Sea Exploring Sect would be reduced.
However, no one would have thought that the Sea Exploring Sect had already absorbed a lot of people into the sect. This place was the Spirit Pool Mountain.
Spirit Pond Mountain was the first stop for people ascending from the lower realms. Zhao Hai didn't stay there for a long time because he immediately went to Tideview City after ascending. Because of this, he didn't stay there for long. On the other hand, Wen Wenhai and the others stayed there for a long time, so they knew the place very well.
The Spiritual Pond Mountain was a place that was deliberately forgotten by the sects of the Sword Spirit Realm. Nobody would go there. In the eyes of the Great Sects, there were only people who ascended from the lower realms. Such people simply didn't need to go there. This was because they were too weak and old. They didn't have any potential for growth. They were even worse than Rogue Cultivators. On the other hand, Zhao Hai and the others had accepted a lot of people from the Spiritual Pond Mountain into the Sea Exploring Sect.
