At this moment.
The vital essence attached to the spiritual paper suddenly dispersed, and the table holding the spiritual paper was suddenly crushed into powder.
Boom!!
The main hall shook, and a big pit suddenly formed.
Yin Bancheng's face was gloomy, and he directly took the spiritual paper.
In his hand.
It felt heavy.
But to him now, this bit of weight was nothing.
He spread out the folded spiritual paper, and a word "Saber" appeared on the paper.
Then.
The word "Saber" came to life, and a terrifying killing intent erupted from it.
In an instant.
Yin Bancheng felt that the environment around him suddenly changed, and he didn't know when he was in a destroyed world. Above the broken sky, a terrifying saber light was swallowing everything.
"Illusion!"
Yin Bancheng's face was dignified, and a powerful divine mind erupted, about to collide with the saber light.
Boom!!
The world collapsed.
Yin Bancheng only felt a pain in his mind, as if he had suffered some kind of terrible attack.
When his gaze returned to the main hall, a trace of blood spilled from the corner of his mouth.
The spiritual paper in his hand also turned into flying ashes.
However.
Yin Bancheng didn't care about the survival of the spiritual paper at all. At this time, he was completely immersed in the saber light that swallowed the world.
After a long time.
Yin Bancheng came to his senses, and the blood at the corner of his mouth disappeared. His calm eyes contained deep fear.
"Qin Shujian!"
Yin Bancheng muttered this name.
He thought that after breaking through to the Celestial Being level, even if his strength was not as good as Qin Shujian's, it was not much worse.
But now Yin Bancheng realized.
Compared to Qin Shujian, he was still too far behind.
That spiritual paper was only attached with a wisp of the other party's divine mind, and at most, it was one-tenth of the other party's strength.
After all, a piece of spiritual paper could not carry the power of a Celestial Being.
But even so.
This time, Yin Bancheng had also suffered a crushing defeat in their battle across space.
Suddenly.
Yin Bancheng's complacent attitude after breaking through to the Celestial Being level was restrained a lot.
He realized.
Even if he broke through to the Celestial Being level, there was still a big gap between him and Qin Shujian.
They were both top sects.
If there was a ranking, Yuan Sect was at the top, and Traceless Sect could only be regarded as the bottom.
Thinking of this.
Yin Bancheng sighed again. "Being a Celestial Being is just a new starting point. If you want to truly control a region, you are still a little lacking."
Originally, he was prepared to destroy the Giant Spirit Sect.
But now that Qin Shujian had done this, Yin Bancheng could only suppress the impulse in his heart.
Unless he really wanted to sever ties with Yuan Zong.
Or else …
He couldn't touch Giant Spirit Zi.
At this moment.
Su Yuan also walked in from outside.
"Supreme Elder, our sect's injured disciples have almost been pacified. Everyone is ready to attack the Giant Spirit Sect. When can we start?"
As Su Yuan spoke, his face was filled with radiance.
Attacking the Giant Spirit Sect was the wish of many people.
The grievances between the two sects had accumulated for a long time. In the past, the Traceless Sect wasn't much stronger than the Great Spirit Sect. Wanting to resolve their grievances was just wishful thinking.
But things were different now.
Now that Yin Bancheng had broken through to the Deva Realm, he alone was enough to suppress the entire Giant Spirit Sect.
Once the Giant Spirit Sect was destroyed.
If the Traceless Sect absorbed the resources of the Giant Spirit Sect, its strength would definitely rise to a whole new level.
Yin Bancheng said, "Inform everyone to stop all actions against the Traceless Sect."
"Okay, I'll … What, what did Supreme Elder say?"
Su Yuan was about to accept the order and leave, but he quickly reacted and looked at Yin Bancheng with astonishment in his eyes.
Yin Bancheng said, "Our sect is temporarily recuperating and is not allowed to take action against the Giant Spirit Sect without permission. You can inform everyone about this matter."
"Our sect is now in full swing, why don't we take action?"
"There is no reason, just do as this old man says."
Yin Bancheng's face turned cold as he looked at Su Yuan with a chill in his heart.
Seeing this.
Su Yuan could only cup his hands and say, "I will obey Supreme Elder's orders."
After saying that, he left.
After leaving the main hall, Su Yuan's face was also very ugly.
Now that he canceled the plan to attack the Giant Spirit Sect at this time, it would have a big impact on the sect.
On second thought.
Su Yuan's attention fell on Zheng Fang.
Before the other party's arrival, Yin Bancheng was determined to take action.
But now.
He wanted to stop the action against the Giant Spirit Sect.
If he guessed correctly, there must be other factors in Yin Bancheng's change of mind.
"Yuan Zong!"
Su Yuan instantly thought of this name.
It was not that Yin Bancheng did not want to take action.
It was Yuan Zong who did not allow the Traceless Sect to take action.
Thinking of this, Su Yuan shook his head helplessly.
In this battle, the Traceless Sect had suffered a lot of casualties. It was the time when the crowd was agitated. Taking action against the Giant Spirit Sect was not only to settle their grudges but also to vent their suppressed emotions.
But now that the plan to attack the Giant Spirit Sect was canceled, it was bound to arouse the dissatisfaction of many disciples.
"Alas, in the end, this matter still fell on my head."
Su Yuan was a little helpless.
He was angry at himself for having nothing to do just now and having to go in and ask a few questions.
In the end, this troublesome matter fell on his head.
Su Yuan could foresee.
Once he announced this news, he was afraid that many disciples would bear a grudge against him.
However.
This matter had to be done by someone after all.
Yin Bancheng obviously did not want to come forward, so he threw this trouble to him.
Sure enough.
After Su Yuan announced that he would stop taking action against the Giant Spirit Sect, it immediately aroused the anger of many people.
"It doesn't matter why. The Giant Spirit Sect killed so many of our people. How can we swallow this anger if we don't take revenge?"
"My Senior Brother died in the hands of the Giant Spirit Sect. This hatred must be avenged."
"I think Elder Su is too timid to go to war with the Giant Spirit Sect."
"Our sect has the Supreme Elder. It's easy to destroy the Giant Spirit Sect. Why don't we fight!"
Many of the disciples were enraged.
The grudges between the two sects had been going on for a long time, and there were often conflicts and deaths.
For some disciples of the Traceless Sect, the people of the Giant Spirit Sect were life and death enemies.
Many of their seniors and friends had died in the hands of the Giant Spirit Sect.
If they did not take revenge at this time, many people would be resentful.
Regarding this.
Su Yuan could only smile bitterly in response.
He could not say that this was the Supreme Elder's decision. Otherwise, he would throw the blame to Yin Bancheng and he would not have a good ending.
In general.
Su Yuan still had to take the blame himself.
Inside the inner hall.
An Peng walked in angrily. As soon as he saw Su Yuan, he immediately questioned, "Why didn't you do it!"
Looking at this posture.
It seemed that if Su Yuan did not give an explanation, he would attack in anger.
Su Yuan said, "Elder An, don't be angry. Sit down first."
As he spoke, his face was also a little helpless.
Other disciples were unreasonable, but an elder was also so short-sighted, which made Su Yuan feel very tired.
An Peng sat down directly and said angrily, "Now is a good opportunity to take revenge. The Giant Spirit Sect definitely can't resist our sect. If we don't take action now, are we going to give them a chance to breathe?"
Su Yuan chuckled and said, "Elder An, don't be impatient. Why don't you have a cup of tea to calm down?"
"Drink? Drink what? Even if you give me Bejeweled Nectar now, I can't drink it at all."
The more An Peng thought about it, the angrier he became.
"Su Yuan, if you don't give me an explanation, I won't let this matter go."
Hearing this.
Su Yuan's face also became serious. He shook his head and sighed, "Elder An, don't you understand? I'm just a little elder. How can I decide whether to fight or not? "
"Is it the Supreme Elder's idea?" An Peng's anger also subsided a little.
After hearing the news, he immediately came to Su Yuan and didn't have time to think too much.
Now that he heard Su Yuan's words, An Peng reacted.
That's right.
Su Yuan was just an inner elder. He was not qualified to decide such a thing.
The people who could make the decision were either Yin Bancheng or Jing Bianyun.
But Jing Bianyun was seriously injured and was in seclusion. The only one who could really take charge of the overall situation was Yin Bancheng.
Thinking of this.
An Peng immediately stood up and said, "I'm going to find the Supreme Elder and have a good talk."
"Elder An, Elder An, please sit down first. You don't have to find the Supreme Elder. It's useless."
Su Yuan hurriedly stopped An Peng.
An Peng reluctantly sat down and said unhappily, "Elder Su, what else do you want to say?"
Su Yuan said, "Elder An should understand that if you want to destroy the Giant Spirit Sect, the Supreme Elder will definitely support it. But if you don't do it now, you have your own difficulties."
"What do you mean?"
Su Yuan said, "You have to understand that the Northern Cloud Mansion's cultivation world is not our Traceless Sect. The Supreme Elder was able to break through because of Yuan Zong. There are some things that our Traceless Sect wants to do, but we also have to consider many things."
An Peng frowned and said, "You mean, Yuan Zong wants to protect the Giant Spirit Sect?"
"Something like that."
Su Yuan nodded.
Hearing this, An Peng's face also turned gloomy.
This time, he didn't clamor to ask Yuan Zong for an explanation because there was no need to.
Su Yuan said, "Although our sect has become a top sect after the Supreme Elder's breakthrough, it's still Yuan Zong who can make the decision in the cultivation world of Northern Cloud Mansion. Yuan Zong stopped us from attacking the Giant Spirit Sect this time because he wants to beat us up.
The reason why the Supreme Elder swallowed his anger is that he doesn't want us to confront Yuan Zong head-on.
After all, once the two top sects start a war, the casualties will not be small.
If we really fight to the end, maybe the foundation of the Traceless Sect will be destroyed. "
An Peng still remained silent.
Su Yuan continued to persuade him, "It's fine to endure for a while. Right now, our sect doesn't have the capital to compete with Yuan Zong. Moreover, the attention of the other sects is now focused on the three major continents.
If our sect rashly fights with Yuan Zong, our strength will inevitably suffer a lot. At that time, we won't be able to invade the three major continents, which will not be good for the future development of our sect. "
The last sentence was made up by Su Yuan himself.
Anyway, An Peng didn't have much of a brain.
He was really afraid that the other party would directly go to Yuan Zong to ask for an explanation in a fit of anger.
So.
Su Yuan also found a random excuse to gloss over it. He barely managed to brush it off.
But as he spoke.
Su Yuan found that the matter seemed to be reasonable.
As for An Peng, he also calmed down at this time and nodded. "Elder Su is right. I was a little impulsive."
"Elder An, you're too serious. The grudges between our sect and the Giant Spirit Sect will be settled sooner or later, but not now. If there's a chance in the future, we will definitely not let them go."
Su Yuan casually comforted him again.
At the same time.
The changes in the Traceless Sect also attracted the attention of other sects.
Inside a sect.
Naturally, there would be spies from various sects.
So once the news was passed, it basically spread out.
Ju Lingzi put down the communication jade talisman in his hand and revealed a smile on his face. "It seems that Yuan Zong is really good. He was able to intimidate the Traceless Sect so quickly. However, 40% of the profit is not a small amount at all!"
Thinking of the things he had to give to Yuan Zong, Ju Lingzi felt a heartache.
However.
He had no intention of going back on his words.
To be precise, it wasn't that he didn't, but he simply didn't dare to.
Ju Lingzi looked at an elder beside him and said, "Immediately send thirty spirit stones to Yuan Zong."
"Yes, Sect Master."
On the other side.
The Tiangang Sect also did the same.
After this incident, the two sects could be considered to have officially relied on Yuan Zong, this towering tree.
Liang Mountain Spiritual Domain.
When Yin Bancheng opened the spiritual paper, Qin Shujian sensed it.
"I hope you know what's good for you. Otherwise, the Beiyun Manor will have one less Heavenly Being."
Qin Shujian shook his head and said to himself.
He knew that stopping the Traceless Sect would cause the other party to be dissatisfied.
But dissatisfaction was dissatisfaction.
Qin Shujian didn't expect that the Traceless Sect would stand on his side wholeheartedly. All he needed was an ally to share the pressure.
As for the rest.
It didn't matter much to him.
If Yin Bancheng knew what was good for him, then Qin Shujian would still keep the Traceless Sect for future plans.
If Yin Bancheng really didn't know what was good for him.
Then he would personally take action and wipe out the entire Traceless Sect.
After all —
Once the Traceless Sect insisted on going against him, keeping such a sect alive would only add to his troubles.
In the next few days.
The Beiyun Manor also calmed down a lot.
The commotion caused by Yin Bancheng's breakthrough didn't fully spread before it was forcibly calmed down.
Some people originally thought that after Yin Bancheng's breakthrough, he would set off a bloody storm in the cultivation world of the Beiyun Manor.
But after a few days.
The Traceless Sect didn't make any moves.
This also allowed them to understand that their original guesses had come to nothing.
The Traceless Sect didn't make a move!
Behind this matter, some people also guessed that it was Yuan Zong behind it.
Now that Yin Bancheng had just broken through, the Traceless Sect was in the limelight. Only Yuan Zong could suppress the Traceless Sect.
Baiyong Manor.
Yin Yang Sect.
Sect Master Shi Yinyang sat on the main seat, and below him were a group of Yin Yang Sect elders.
Compared to the past, the number of elders now was a little less.
Everyone's expression was a little ugly.
Shi Yinyang said, "Yuan Zong sent a message, asking us to compensate for the loss of 30 spirit stones. Otherwise, he will attack us."
Bang!
As soon as he finished speaking, an elder slapped the table heavily and said angrily, "Yuan Zong must be crazy for spirit stones. Compensation of 30 spirit stones? What did Yuan Zong lose this time?!"
"That's right. If it weren't for Yuan Zong, how could Yin Bancheng succeed in breaking through? Damn it, how dare he blackmail us now!"
Another elder was enraged.
In this battle, the Yin Yang Sect lost five elders, two of whom were at the peak of the Prominent Divine Realm and three in the God Martial Realm.
It could be said that the losses in this battle were too much for the Yin Yang Sect to bear.
What made them even angrier was that …
After the Giant Spirit Sect gave a deposit, there was no news.
They didn't give a single cent of the reward.
If the Yin Yang Sect took out 30 spirit stones at this time, they would have lost everything in this operation.
They would have lost the lives of five elders and 20 spirit stones.
Thinking of this, many people were so depressed that they wanted to vomit blood.
Shi Yinyang said calmly, "We don't know if Yuan Zong is crazy or not, but since Qin Shujian opened his mouth, it's obvious that he has taken note of our Yin Yang Sect. If this matter isn't settled, there will be endless trouble in the future."
"So what if there's trouble? Our Yin Yang Sect is far away in Baiyong Manor. No matter how powerful Yuan Zong is, he can't reach in. Don't forget, there's still the Nine Palace Sect above us."
The Yin Yang Sect elder sneered.
Baiyong Manor's cultivation world wasn't a place where anyone could reach in.
As the top sect in Baiyong Manor, the Nine Palace Sect naturally had the responsibility to protect the cultivation world in Baiyong Manor.
If Yuan Zong made a move against them, the first one he would have to face would be the Nine Palace Sect.
If the Nine Palace Sect allowed Yuan Zong to deal with them, their reputation would be ruined. They might even be ostracized by the entire cultivation world in Baiyong Manor.
When that time came.
Even if they didn't lose their title as a top sect, they would definitely not have an easy time.
Shi Yinyang fell silent.
After a long time, he said, "Contact the Crimson Heaven Sect and see what they plan to do."
Other than the Yin Yang Sect, the Crimson Heaven Sect was also attacking Traceless Sect.
As for compensation.
To be honest, Shi Yinyang didn't even have this thought in his heart.
30 spirit stones wasn't a small amount.
Moreover, if news of a sect in Baiyong Manor bowing to a sect in Beiyun Manor spread, it would be a laughing stock.
Therefore.
No matter what, the Yin Yang Sect wouldn't agree.
Therefore, in Shi Yinyang's opinion, Yuan Zong's message was more of a threat and warning.
— —
Yuan Zong.
In the Sundry Hall.
Qin Shujian took a sip of tea and said calmly, "Is there any news from Baiyong Manor?"
"No." Xu Yuanming shook his head.
Qin Shujian laughed and said, "In that case, the Yin Yang Sect and the Crimson Heaven Sect don't plan to pay a price."
"After all, the two sects are under Baiyong Manor. Our Yuan Zong is located in Beiyun Manor, so it's not easy to reach over. There's also the Nine Palace Sect above Baiyong Manor, so it's normal that they don't care."
"Yes." Qin Shujian nodded and said, "Find a few people to go to Yuan Pavilion as rogue cultivators and issue a few missions to kill the spirit of the two sects."
The Nine Palace Sect was a big trouble.
Although they were both top sects, the Nine Palace Sect was much stronger than the Celestial Array Sect.
Of course, that was the Celestial Array Sect before Fang Xinglan broke through.
Now that Fang Xinglan had successfully broken through, even if there was a gap between the Celestial Array Sect and the Nine Palace Sect, it wasn't much.
As for Yuan Pavilion.
It had been developing well during this period of time. Although other sects had effectively imitated them, Yuan Pavilion was still the most influential in terms of influence.
The rogue cultivators in the world.
At least 60% to 70% of them had registered their identities in Yuan Pavilion.
If they issued missions against the two sects, even if they didn't destroy them, it would definitely be enough to make them suffer.
However, there were also some hidden dangers in doing so.
After all, once Yuan Sect frequently issued assassination missions in Yuan Pavilion, Yuan Pavilion would become an exclusive assassin organization of Yuan Sect. This would make some sects and even rogue cultivators feel afraid.
Therefore.
Yuan Zong rarely issued missions in Yuan Pavilion. Even if it was an assassination mission, it was mostly done with the identity of a rogue cultivator.
And the people who issued the missions were basically traceable.
If they investigated further, they would know that there was indeed a grudge between the two sides.
Regarding this.
Xu Yuanming also had a deep understanding.
"Sect Master, don't worry. I know what to do."
"Yes."
Qin Shujian nodded, a cold light faintly appearing in his eyes.
He wasn't a magnanimous person.
The Yin Yang Sect and the Crimson Heaven Sect had ignored his words. In Qin Shujian's view, this was a provocation to him.
It was inconvenient for him to take action now.
Or else …
Qin Shujian had already led people to the White Yong Prefecture and destroyed the two sects.
However, this was just a thought.
Let's not talk about whether the Nine Palace Sect was easy to provoke.
If Yuan Sect made a big move, the imperial court might intervene and stop the fight between the two sects.
The disputes between the other sects were fine. Strictly speaking, in the eyes of the imperial court, it was just a small fight.
However, the disputes between the top sects were a big deal.
Because it involved the Celestial Beings.
What the imperial court wanted now was for the human race to be stable internally and to face the three major continents in a flourishing state.
At this moment.
If there was a battle between the Celestial Beings, it was not what the imperial court wanted to see.
Therefore, even if Qin Shujian didn't care about the Nine Palace Sect, he had to be wary of the imperial court.
However.
In Qin Shujian's view, Yuan Pavilion's missions were enough to annoy the two sects for a long time.
As for the remaining matters.
He would slowly settle them in the future.
Xu Yuanming said, "During this period of time, there have been frequent small-scale anomalies in the new area. I'm afraid a supreme treasure is about to be born."
"It's not that fast. In my opinion, it will take about one or two months for an Innate Spiritual Item to be born."
Qin Shujian said, "However, we can also make some preparations. When the Innate Spiritual Item is about to be born, we can let some disciples go in and explore."
At the same time, we can also take advantage of it.
Qin Shujian added another sentence in his heart.
During this period of time, the disciples of Yuan Sect had made a lot of money. Everyone had a lot of contribution points.
In his opinion, these contribution points were useless to him. It was better to contribute them to the sect.
When the Innate Spiritual Item was born.
It was time to start refining Cold Mountain City.
By that time, the time would have almost passed and it would be time for the mountain gate to open.
After that, in a few months, he would have to break the restrictions of heaven and earth and connect the three major continents.
However, before connecting the three major continents, Qin Shujian still hoped that he could go overseas to make some money and see if he could find some clues about the Dong Sheng Divine Continent.
He didn't know.
However, he was shocked.
Qin Shujian realized that a year was actually not much time. With so many things piled up together, it was not an easy thing to do.
Thinking of this.
He also sighed. "A year is really too short!"
