"Stand in line …" Mu Chen's expression changed slightly.
"That's right, stand in line!" Mu Yunshu said softly, "The rise of the Akatsuki and the Lin family is unstoppable. No matter who wins this time, it's very likely that they'll overturn the current structure of the Nakagawa Continent in the future. Therefore, your side is very important now. You don't want to continue the life of the building that's about to collapse, you want to find a new master!"
"So, are we standing in line now?" Mu Chen asked.
The Sky Yi Sword Sect had a very close relationship with the Akatsuki. The relationship between Mu Bai and Hayashikawa, the fact that Hayashikawa rescued Mu Yunshu, and even the fact that Mu Chen worshipped Elixir Immortal Xiaoyao, made them inseparable from the Akatsuki. It was not an exaggeration to say that they were completely on the side of the Akatsuki.
"We're standing in line because if we want to go further, we have to enter the Nakagawa Continent. However, the current Nakagawa won't tolerate another First-class Cultivation force. Therefore, we can only rely on the Akatsuki to find an opportunity in the ever-changing Cultivation World!" Mu Yunshu said softly.
Mu Chen thought deeply about Mu Yunshu's words. Although he didn't pay much attention to the things on the continent, he still attached great importance to the development of his sect. Once he made a mistake in choosing a side, he might be annihilated. In history, First-class Cultivation forces had been annihilated because of this.
However, compared with other First-class Cultivation forces, the Sky Yi Sword Sect had a unique advantage because even if they failed, they could retreat to the Western River Continent and not be uprooted. If the royal family of Nakagawa wanted to deal with the Sky Yi Sword Sect, they would have to pay a great price.
"So be it. I don't think we'll make a mistake this time. Elixir Immortal Xiaoyao has already chosen a side. I'll go after him myself!" Mu Chen said after thinking for a while.
On the other side, the three Supreme Elders of the Sanqing Sect, who were also practitioners of the Crossing Calamity Stage, had also appeared near the Dasi Lianshui.
"I have a feeling that this duel will set off a huge war in Nakagawa. It's going to be hard for us to stay out of it!" Lu Chen, the Great Elder of the Shangqing Sect, said worriedly.
"The situation is changing too fast. We can only barely adapt to the situation. Originally, I thought that the Nakagawa Empire wouldn't have any problems in the short term. However, the last time they attacked the Nanming Continent, they revealed that they were helpless against the Akatsuki. This time, I reckon that several First-class Cultivation forces won't be peaceful anymore!" Lin Xuan, the Supreme Elder of the Taiqing Sect, said softly.
"No matter what, I believe in Tao Zu's choice. Since Hayashikawa is his direct disciple, the Yuqing Sect will definitely follow him!" Unlike the other two sects, the Supreme Elder of the Yuqing Sect, Shangguan Hong, was completely on Hayashikawa's side this time.
Hearing this, Lin Xuan's eyes moved slightly, and he immediately said, "Shangguan Hong, don't tell me you've already …"
"I've already taken the pill. Indeed, as Hayashikawa said, it can directly increase my strength by more than 30%. There's nothing to hide. I didn't find any side effects of this thing. The only bad thing may be that, as Hayashikawa said, he can harvest this power at any time!" Shangguan Hong said without hiding anything.
When his voice fell, Lin Xuan and Lu Chen looked at each other and saw the surprise in each other's eyes.
"Then your strength …" Lu Chen's eyes narrowed slightly.
"You can try it!" As Shangguan Hong spoke, he pointed out a finger. Immortal Qi Chakra operated and fell in front of Lu Chen. Lu Chen's reaction speed was not slow either. He raised his hand and pointed out a finger as well.
The surrounding space collapsed silently. The two people's fingers didn't really touch, but Lu Chen's expression changed slightly. He took a few steps back in an instant with a look of shock on his face.
Among the three of them, Shangguan Hong's strength was originally the weakest. After all, the Yuqing Sect had always been at the bottom of the Sanqing Sect. However, in this collision, Lu Chen was no match for Shangguan Hong at all.
"The improvement of the pill is really so great!!!" Lin Xuan was also shocked when he saw this scene. Judging from the collision just now, Shangguan Hong's strength was obviously higher than his. It hadn't been long since they last met, but Shangguan Hong's strength had improved so much. This was a Crossing Calamity cultivator ah. How could such a change happen without a hundred years?
"I've already chosen the team I want to stand on. It's up to you guys now!" Shangguan Hong looked at the two of them and said.
Lin Xuan and Lu Chen looked at each other. It would be a lie to say that they weren't envious. At their current stage, every bit of improvement in strength had become very difficult. It was just that they hadn't decided whether to completely stand on Hayashikawa's side. After all, Hayashikawa also had the possibility of losing this battle. Although the pill was easy to take, it wasn't so easy to spit it out.
Just as the two of them were frowning, Shangguan Hong's expression suddenly changed. He immediately said, "There's news from Dieche's side. He said that Hayashikawa wants to see us before the final battle!"
"See us?" The two of them were a little surprised.
"There might be a surprise!" Shangguan Hong said softly.
By the lake of Dasi Lianshui, two figures stared at the lake filled with dense fog. The tides rose and fell here, and the wind blew and clouds surged. It didn't look like a lake at all, but more like a vast ocean.
"Dasi Lianshui, interesting, interesting …"
Standing at the front was a young man with an ordinary face. His eyes were deep, reflecting the turbulent waves of Dasi Lianshui. His whole body had an indescribable temperament.
Behind him, an old man in black stood respectfully. His gaze fell on the young man, full of reverence.
If this scene was seen by others, countless jaws would drop in shock, because this old man wasn't an unknown person, but the sect master of a second-level cultivation force — Hun Shang!
His cultivation was only at the peak of the Dacheng stage, but his soul cultivation had reached the terrifying half-immortal level. Even if a Tribulation Passing stage cultivator saw him, they would be very afraid because he had the ability to kill a Tribulation Passing stage cultivator with the strength of a Dacheng stage cultivator. His terror had long become a symbol of the Soul Refining Sect. If Hun Shang's cultivation broke through to the Tribulation Passing stage one day, then with his strength alone, he was completely capable of promoting the Soul Refining Sect to a first-level cultivation force.
However, such a person was standing respectfully beside an unknown young man at this moment. People couldn't help but wonder who this young man was.
The roaring sound of the tide hitting the reef was heard. After a while, the young man turned around.
"Soul Ancestor, this time, we …" Hun Shang asked tentatively.
"Don't do anything for now. I need to wait for news from someone!" The young man said softly.
