There were a total of five people in this box. Yui Kimi recognized three of them at a glance. The middle-aged man with a handsome face was the sect master of the Celestial Sect, the father of Childe Remains. There were also two old men, the one with a long beard was the sect master of the Nine Stars Peak, and the other was the sect master of the Pure Sun Sect.
The reason why these three people left a deep impression on Yui Kimi was entirely because of the battle in Qilin City. At that time, Hayashikawa had just come out of the Floating Spirit Temple. Due to the participation of the Soul Refining Sect, many disciples died in that incident. The major sects joined forces to force Hayashikawa to give an explanation. As a result, they were defeated by Hayashikawa using the Flying Thunder God Technique. At that time, the cultivation of those people was at the peak of the Apotheosis Stage. They could do nothing to Hayashikawa, who had the ability to control space. Under the siege of many powerful sect masters, many of them were killed by Hayashikawa.
Among them, the sect master of the Pure Sun Sect was killed by Hayashikawa. Half of the body of the sect master of the Celestial Sect was destroyed, and he was seriously injured. Hayashikawa didn't intend to let the sect master of the Nine Stars Peak go, but the elder altar seemed to feel that the situation was getting out of hand and chose to intervene. In the end, the killing was not completed.
The current sect master of the Pure Sun Sect was actually the sect master of the previous generation. After Hayashikawa killed the younger generation, he had to come out to take charge of the overall situation. Now, the three people who were originally only at the Apotheosis Stage had all reached the middle stage of the Voiding Realm. Their strength had increased a lot.
Looking at the other two people, although Yui Kimi didn't know them, she felt that they were familiar. She guessed that these people were also present during the battle in Qilin City. Like the other three, their cultivation was also at the middle stage of the Voiding Realm.
"It seems that the growth of Tangerine's cultivation has a great impact on the Floating Spirit Region!" Hayashikawa said softly, he has already seen the scene through the Tenseigan through the Yi Qi Into Three Pure Ones.
When Hayashikawa first came to the Floating Spirit Region, the ones with the highest cultivation were the Five Spirit Elders of the Elder Altar. They were all at the Void Refining Stage, but because of the curse, they were trapped in the altar and could not leave for a long time. The ones with the highest cultivation in the outside world were the Sect Master of the Celestial Sect. They were all at the Peak of the Apotheosis Stage, which was very similar to the situation in the South Ming Continent.
"Their strength has grown a lot, I'm afraid that Floating Spirit Hall won't be able to suppress them anymore, plus, I'm not here …" Hayashikawa whispered to himself as he activated his Mangekyou Sharingan and looked at the box next door.
"What's wrong?" Mu Bai was a little confused. He only felt that the atmosphere seemed a little strange.
"Let's see what these old friends of mine are plotting here!" As soon as Hayashikawa's voice fell, the blood-red Mangekyou Sharingan turned slightly and turned into the shape of a windmill. Immediately, a black color emerged and turned into a crow. Its eyes were exactly the same as Hayashikawa's Mangekyou Sharingan. After flying out, it directly disappeared into the wall.
In the next moment, everyone felt that the light in the room had dimmed a little. Five figures appeared not far away, making everyone feel as if they were in the room next door, as if they were in the same room.
"Illusion!"
Mu Bai and the other Sky Solitary Sword Sect members' expressions changed slightly. They knew that they had entered Hayashikawa's illusion, but what shocked them was that they didn't feel anything when they entered the illusion. If it was Hayashikawa who attacked them, they probably wouldn't have any time to react. This person was simply terrifying.
In the private room next door, the five strongest experts of the Floating Spirit Region were seated around a round table. All five of them had rather relaxed expressions, and one of them even seemed a little arrogant. However, Lin Chuan didn't recognize this person, so he didn't pay too much attention to him. Instead, he focused his attention on the sect master of the Celestial Sect. After all, the Celestial Sect was the number one sect in the Floating Spirit Region aside from the Floating Spirit Hall.
At the same time, Hayashikawa was also afraid that the others wouldn't understand. While stroking the cat, he explained the identities of these people and their previous grudges.
It was also at this time that the Sect Master of Pure Sun Sect spoke first, "What do you all think?"
His words came out of nowhere, and Hayashikawa didn't know what he was asking. He could only continue to watch.
"I still feel a little uneasy!" Nine Star Peak's Sect Master said with a frown.
"What's there to be uneasy about? That Blue Dragon definitely won't come back. Why should we be afraid of him? "The younger and more arrogant middle-aged man said.
"Black Moon Sect Master, you haven't fought with Blue Dragon before. You don't know how terrifying he is!" Nine Star Peak's Sect Master glanced at the middle-aged man and said coldly.
The Black Moon Sect was a major force that had only appeared in recent years. Previously, it had always been obscure and unknown. When the various major forces confronted the Azure Dragon Sect, it didn't have a chance to participate. However, this person had become the fifth cultivator of the Floating Spirit Region to break through to the Void Refinement Stage. As a result, the status of the Black Moon Sect also rose with the tide and reached its current status.
"Hmph! You were all scared out of your wits by that Blue Dragon from before. Now you don't even dare to resist! " The Black Moon Sect Master snorted coldly and said, "According to the latest news from Dayin Tower, that Blue Dragon is being hunted down by the Nakagawa Imperial Family. That's the largest force in the entire Cultivation World. He can't even protect himself now, so how can he have the time to care about the Floating Spirit Region? Besides, I don't think he'll live for much longer!"
"He was able to survive for so long under the pursuit of the Nakagawa Imperial Family. How do you know he won't be able to return to Floating Spirit Region alive?" Pure Sun Sect Master asked.
"I say, have you gone senile? Your son was killed by the Blue Dragon, and you're still speaking up for him!" Changing the topic, the Black Moon Sect Master looked at the Celestial Sect Master. "Your son was also killed by the Blue Dragon, right? Have all of you forgotten the blood feud from back then? Or are you saying that you can't stand up after kneeling for so long?! "
His words were very unpleasant to the ears, and the faces of the Pure Sun Sect Master immediately turned unsightly. The Pure Sun Sect Master was so angry that the spiritual energy in his body became somewhat unstable.
"Black Moon, we're different from you. The Celestial Sect, Pure Sun Sect, Nine Star Peak, and my Flying Feather Sect have already taken over the Floating Spirit Hall's jurisdiction over the continent. The Five Spirit Elders can't leave the Elder Altar, so the Floating Spirit Region is actually ours. Why do you insist that we join forces to destroy the Floating Spirit Hall?" Another person that Hayashikawa wasn't familiar with spoke up. At the mention of the Flying Feather Sect, Hayashikawa thought of this person.
"It's not that we don't want to help you, but …" The Celestial Sect Master's expression was unsightly. After pondering for a moment, a green cross mark and two reverse hooks appeared on his forehead. Then, the same pattern appeared on the foreheads of the Pure Sun Sect, Nine Star Peak, and Flying Feather Sect.
"This is the Caged Bird Curse. Back then, your Black Moon Sect didn't have the qualifications to participate in the Floating Spirit Council, so Blue Dragon didn't do anything to you!" The Nine Star Peak Sect Master slowly said, "Once this curse is left, we can't get rid of it no matter how hard we try. As long as the Blue Dragon comes back, he can turn us into ashes with a single thought. We're already very satisfied with the current situation and don't plan on changing it. Once the Floating Spirit Hall is destroyed, there won't be any leeway left!"
As his voice fell, everyone fell silent.
Did they forget about their grudge? Actually, they didn't!
They just couldn't resist. In the battle of Qilin City, they still lost to Hayashikawa, who had just advanced to the Soul Formation stage. Later on, during the Floating Spirit Council, they didn't plan on acknowledging Hayashikawa, but they were controlled by Hayashikawa's illusion technique. With the help of the Floating Spirit Hall, they really couldn't resist. And the last bit of courage they had was completely destroyed when Hayashikawa took out the Floating Spirit Domain's accompanying immortal artifact, the Nine Heavens Mysterious Jade, and the Orange Cat that he was hugging.
Those who didn't experience that incident couldn't understand the nightmare that Hayashikawa left for them. That feeling of helplessness was the most painful experience of their lives.
Furthermore, the Caged Bird had severed all of their hopes. When this curse was cast, they had completely lost all of their chances. They had even been forced to act against those who were unwilling to submit during the Floating Spirits' meeting, becoming chess pieces in the hands of the Azure Dragon.
"To be honest, I'm already used to our current life. We still have some leeway. Even though the Floating Spirit Hall is just a figurehead, they didn't say much. After all, the current situation is because the Immortal Spirit Pavilion has lost its usefulness. The system that Blue Dragon established was also destroyed by him. The Floating Spirit Hall doesn't have a better solution!" The Pure Sun Sect Master said.
Hearing this, Hayashikawa frowned.
The Immortal Spirit Pavilion was built when he left the Floating Spirit Hall. It was filled with Immortal Qi separated from the Mysterious Jade of the Nine Heavens. Cultivating there would be twice the results with half the effort. Hayashikawa also set many conditions for entering the Immortal Spirit Pavilion. One of the main conditions was to contribute medicinal herbs. The existence of the Immortal Spirit Pavilion allowed the Floating Spirit Hall to better govern the mainland. However, there was a problem, which was that the Immortal Qi would be depleted. Every once in a while, the Mysterious Jade of the Nine Heavens would have to be used to replenish the Immortal Qi. Otherwise, the Immortal Spirit Pavilion wouldn't be able to operate.
Ever since Hayashikawa went to the Nakagawa mainland, he hadn't returned. The Immortal Qi in the Immortal Spirit Pavilion had long been depleted. Without the Immortal Spirit Pavilion, the various powers didn't pay much attention to the Floating Spirit Hall. Coupled with the increase in the cultivation of cultivators in the outside world and the restriction of the Five Spirit Elders being unable to leave the Elder's Altar for long periods of time, the Floating Spirit Hall's rule slowly became a figurehead. The people who truly controlled the mainland were the five people present and the sects they belonged to.
However, the sect masters all knew how powerful Blue Dragon was. Hence, they didn't fall out with the Floating Spirit Hall and tried their best to maintain a harmonious atmosphere on the surface.
Unfortunately, the Xuanyin Sect's ambition was too great. They had already begun to have thoughts of destroying the Floating Spirit Hall. Especially after news of the Blue Dragon being hunted down in the Nakagawa mainland, they couldn't suppress their thoughts any longer. They were prepared to pull everyone into action.
Just as the few of them were trying to persuade the Xuanyin Sect's sect master to give up on this crazy idea, he was still immersed in his own world, thinking about how to drag the four of them down with him.
Suddenly, the Nine Stars Peak sect master's eyelids twitched. He realized that a black crow had appeared on a carved railing behind the Xuanyin Sect's sect master. Its blood-red eyes stared coldly at the five of them. A picture that looked like a windmill spun slowly within it.
At this moment, the Nine Stars Peak sect master's scalp went numb. He almost screamed out loud.
"Shh!"
A familiar voice rang out in the Nine Stars Peak sect master's mind, causing him to give up all his struggles.
