In Fairy Lei Ying's eyes, all they had to do was spread the essence of the rune mystic arts, and Chi Xue's group would stop targeting the Rune Cultivators. After all, the Rune Cultivators were powerful, and the rune formations they set up were formidable. Even if Chi Xue's two factions joined forces to attack, they would suffer some losses. Once they could obtain the essence of the rune mystic arts for free, they naturally wouldn't attack the Rune Cultivators anymore.
Ling Tian, however, didn't see it that way. He said bluntly that even if they spread the rune mystic arts, they still wouldn't be able to stop Chi Xue's group from targeting the Rune Cultivators.
"Why?" Fairy Lei Ying asked, though she already had a guess in mind.
"Chi Xue's group won't believe that the essence of the rune mystic arts we spread is genuine. They'd rather capture some Rune Cultivators themselves; that's the only way to ensure nothing goes wrong," Zhuge Xun explained for him. Then he continued, "Besides, even if Chi Xue's group believes the essence we spread is genuine, they'll still attack the Rune Cultivators, because what we're spreading isn't complete. After all, there's still part of the essence that we haven't comprehended."
That was true. Although Feng Xi had comprehended the rune mystic arts used to attack, defend, and temper cultivators, she still hadn't grasped the art that directly increased a cultivator's strength. So there was no way they could spread the complete teachings. With the rune mystic arts incomplete, Chi Xue's group would naturally attack the Rune Cultivators to obtain the complete version.
"Actually, even if we comprehend the rune mystic arts that increase a cultivator's strength and spread every last part of them, we still won't be able to stop Chi Xue's group
