Jifeng Sect.
As a top sect with a Heavenly Being, Jifeng Sect's status in the Ancient Barren World had always been high.
Unfortunately, as the Heavenly Being aged and no new Heavenly Being was born, the sect's power had declined day by day.
Until now.
Although Jifeng Sect was a top sect, it did not have the strength that a top sect should have.
Sect Hall.
The current Sect Master of Jifeng Sect, who was also the only Heavenly Being in Jifeng Sect, exuded an aura of old age, as if he would pass away at any time.
Below him sat many elders of the Swift Wind Sect.
Now, everyone's expression was different. Some were angry and some were worried.
"Now that the Array Faction Martial Arts Academy is closing in, do you have any plans?"
Sect Master Yu Xiu's expression was calm as he looked at the changes in everyone's expression. It seemed that he did not feel much anger towards the Array Faction Martial Arts Academy.
As soon as he finished speaking.
The hall suddenly became silent.
After a long time.
An Elder cupped his hands. "Sect Master, the Array Faction Martial Arts Academy's reputation is like the sun in the sky. The Sect Master, Zong Yi, has obtained some kind of opportunity and his strength has increased by leaps and bounds. Although he has not reached the Heavenly Being Realm, he has reached the peak of the Divine Martial Realm.
Not only that, but he has also made a breakthrough in Array Dao and become one of the rare Array Dao Masters in the Ancient Barren World.
If our sect has a direct conflict with the Array Faction Martial Arts Academy, I'm afraid it will be disadvantageous. "
Hearing this, Yu Xiu looked at the others. "Do you think so too?"
"— —"
The Elders did not reply.
At this moment.
A middle-aged Elder with a red face shouted angrily, "What is the Array Faction Martial Arts Academy? When it was founded, it had some reputation, but now it has been weak for many years.
Zong Yi was weak in the past and could be killed by me with my bare hands. Now that he has obtained some kind of opportunity, he has a chance to turn things around.
Jifeng Sect has existed for thousands of years. When have we ever been afraid of a small Array Faction Martial Arts Academy? "
"Elder Liu, you're wrong."
"What does Elder Zhang have to say?" Elder Liu looked unhappy and glared angrily.
Elder Zhang heard this, his expression was calm. "The Array Faction Martial Arts Academy in the past was indeed nothing, but the current Array Faction Martial Arts Academy is no longer what it used to be. It is undoubtedly a mistake to look at it in the past.
There were some things that should be done in the present.
We have to admit that the strength of the Array Faction Martial Club is no weaker than our Jifeng Sect. In fact, they might even be stronger. "
"After all …"
At this point, Elder Zhang looked at Yu Xiu and cupped his hands respectfully.
"Sect Master, this old man did not mean to be disrespectful. I just wanted to say that everything I did was for the sake of the Swift Wind Sect."
"Speak your mind."
Yu Xiu nodded slightly, indicating for him to continue.
Seeing this.
Elder Zhang continued, "Although the Sect Master is a Diviner, he is already old. Not to mention whether his strength is at its peak, if he suffered any losses in the battle with the Array Faction Dojo, he might pass away early.
You must know that once my Swift Wind Sect loses a Celestial, it will definitely fall from being a top sect.
If it's just a drop in status, that's fine. When an outstanding disciple becomes a Diviner again in the future, my Swift Wind Sect can rise again.
However, my Swift Wind Sect has been on bad terms with many forces over the years. Without you, the Sect Master, those forces will not let my Swift Wind Sect go easily.
At that time, if we are not careful, our sect might be destroyed. "
At this moment, Elder Zhang suddenly stood up and bowed to Yu Xiu.
"I don't know why this old man is afraid to fight. If it is really beneficial to the Swift Wind Sect, this old man will not hesitate to give up his life.
However, if we do it knowing that it is impossible, it will put the great Swift Wind Sect in a dangerous place.
At that time, if the Swift Wind Sect is destroyed because of this, we will not be able to answer to the ancestors of the Swift Wind Sect in the underworld! "
Immediately after.
Without waiting for Yu Xiu to speak, Elder Zhang straightened up and looked at Elder Liu.
"This old man is not really opposed to Elder Liu's proposal. As a top sect, our sect should not lose its backbone. However, in the face of the crisis of the sect's survival, we have to bow our heads for the time being.
You must know that a man does not have a thousand days of happiness, and a flower does not bloom for a hundred days. Our Swift Wind Sect was glorious in the past, and it is normal for it to decline now. It is just like how the Array Sect Martial Arts Dojo has declined for a long time, and now it has risen again.
As long as we can be patient, we will have a chance to return to the peak sooner or later.
This old man has said what needs to be said. That's all I have to say. The rest is up to the elders. "
After saying that.
Elder Zhang sat down again.
Elder Liu's face seemed to turn a little redder. He wanted to refute, but the other party's words were reasonable, so he did not know how to refute for a while.
In the main hall.
Many people nodded in agreement.
It was obvious that Elder Zhang's words had struck a chord in their hearts.
Sect Master Yu Xiu waited for a long time before nodding in agreement.
"Elder Zhang is right. A man does not have a thousand days of happiness, and a flower does not bloom for a hundred days. No one dares to say that they are invincible. Even if they are invincible for a while, they will eventually fall from the altar.
I don't have much time left. I only have about thirty years left. Once thirty years are up, even a True Immortal will not be able to reverse the situation.
If you want to fight, then I will fight with you. Even if I have to sacrifice my old bones, I will still be able to take Zong Yi down with me if I self-destruct.
However, after I self-destruct, whether or not the Swift Wind Sect can hold on to its foundation is your problem. "
Yu Xiu paused, paying attention to the changes in everyone's expression.
After a long while.
He continued.
"If you don't fight, then our Swift Wind Sect will give up the fight for the mine. In addition, we will close our doors and never walk in the world again. I will spend the last thirty years trying my best to cultivate a Heavenly Being for the Swift Wind Sect.
Of course, I am not 100% sure that a Heavenly Being will be born within thirty years. I can only say that I will try my best. "
After Yu Xiu finished speaking.
Elder Zhang continued, "The way of the world now is different from the past. After the game was released, everyone entered the game to cultivate. As long as they can raise their realm in the game, they can also quickly raise their realm in the real world.
Thirty years in the real world is ninety years in the game.
If you can raise your realm to the Heavenly Being Realm in the game during this time, then you can also quickly raise your realm in the real world.
Thirty years may not seem long, but it may not be impossible for our Swift Wind Sect to give birth to a new Heavenly Being. "
After saying that, Elder Zhang silently added another sentence in his heart.
He even suspected that Zong Yi was able to raise his realm so quickly because he had obtained some unknown opportunity in the game.
However, these were just his thoughts and he did not say it out loud.
