Boom!

The words of the Water Fire Boy struck Daoist Duobao and the others like a thunderclap, leaving them utterly stunned.

Daoist Duobao's position under Sect Master Tongtian had always been as stable as Mount Tai, unshakeable by anyone.

But this time, Daoist Duobao was actually rejected?!

Not to mention Daoist Duobao, even the disciples of the Sect of Interception who followed him couldn't accept it.

How could this be? Was Daoist Duobao out of favor simply because of a newly promoted core disciple who appeared out of nowhere?

However, Sect Master Tongtian and Fang Yang truly had important matters to discuss.

Fang Yang submitted a propagation plan called the "Plague Plan" to Sect Master Tongtian, with the main objective of whitewashing the Sect of Interception.

Lü Yue's act of spreading plague had invisibly damaged the Sect of Interception's image in the world, causing it to fall from being a grand orthodox Xuanmen to a place that harbored evildoers and hid dirt and filth.

The various races of the Great Desolation were not afraid of being slaughtered, because the harm of slaughter was temporary; once it was over, it was over. But plague was different.

Once a plague spread, it meant the destruction of a race's future.

Those with powerful cultivation might have a chance to survive the plague, but newly born infants and weaker juniors would only die if they encountered Lü Yue's plague.

This was why Meng Zhen had intervened in time, and Fang Yang had promptly filled the gap, otherwise, Sect Master Tongtian's merit would have been reduced again.

Even so, the Sect of Interception's standing in the hearts of the myriad races was no longer the same as before.

Fang Yang not only had to salvage the situation but also tell the myriad races that the Sect of Interception was not a fraud, and that its words counted.

All of this required the help of the Taiqing Saint.

Fang Yang only had the ability to propose plans, not the strength to implement them.

The core of the "Plague Plan" was to spread another "plague" throughout the Great Desolation, but this "plague" would be benign.

All beings infected by this "plague" would gain the ability to be immune to all illness and be healthy and well.

In the future, even if beings like Lü Yue spread plagues, they would not be infected.

Therefore, this matter absolutely required the Taiqing Saint, the leading figure in the path of medicine, to resolve it.

Of course, this was also Fang Yang's plan.

By cooperating with the Human Sect, they could share merit and gradually bind the interests of the Human Sect and the Sect of Interception together.

Although Fang Yang could not consider the Human Sect and the Sect of Enlightenment as one family, establishing cooperative relationships with them was achievable.

Guangchengzi's prejudice against the Sect of Interception does not mean that all disciples of the Sect of Enlightenment and the Human Sect are prejudiced against the Sect of Interception.

Grand Master Xuandu, True Person Yu Ding, True Person Huang Long, Venerable Manjushri, and others could still be won over.

After all, the Three Pure Ones are brothers, not enemies.

He believed that Taiqing Saint and Primordial Heavenly Venerate would also be willing to see the disciples of the three sects get along, like a family.

Sect Master Tongtian saw through Fang Yang's plan at a glance. He didn't say anything on the surface, but an unprecedented sense of comfort arose in his heart.

He had received a disciple who truly had a grand vision and the ability to develop the Sect of Interception.

Saint Mother Jin Ling, Saint Mother Wudang, Zhao Gongming, and others were not bad. Their character and cultivation were top-notch among their peers.

However, they lacked the concept of cooperation for mutual benefit. They understood even less how to develop allies and unite those around them who could be united.

They preferred to rely on their cultivation to settle matters, but once cultivation proved insufficient, they had no other means.

"Fang Yang, you want to unite the Human Sect and the Sect of Enlightenment to spread the Dao together, right?"

Sect Master Tongtian's words hit Fang Yang's ultimate goal.

Fang Yang had never intended to hide this. He cupped his hands and said.

"Precisely. In fact, the philosophies of the Human Sect, the Sect of Enlightenment, and the Sect of Interception are a series of progressive relationships, and there is no Great Dao Struggle between them."

"The Human Sect advocates the Daoist principle of following nature, which is to respect the laws of nature."

"The Sect of Enlightenment's Path of Chan Heaven is to act in one's own favor based on conforming to the opportune time and Heavenly Mandate."

"And our sect's Intercept a Glimmer of Life is a step deeper than the philosophy of the Sect of Enlightenment, seeking a way out in desperate situations, contending for Opportunity outside of Heavenly Mandate, and ultimately converging with the Human Sect and the Sect of Enlightenment, all for the continuation of the Great Dao of the Primordial World."

Fang Yang's eyes shone brightly as he spoke each word like a pearl, explaining his understanding of the relationship between the Human Sect, the Sect of Enlightenment, and the Sect of Interception.

Sect Master Tongtian nodded repeatedly as he listened. In fact, Fang Yang's words struck a chord with him.

The philosophies of the Three Pure Ones had never conflicted. They were brothers first, and then they each proposed their own philosophies.

Given their brotherhood, it was impossible for them to intentionally propose a philosophy that clearly contradicted the others.

Unless they did not understand each other, or the third person to propose a philosophy intended to deliberately oppose the first two.

Clearly, such a situation would absolutely not occur.

From the very beginning, the philosophies of the three sects were complementary.

This relationship was something that Daoist Duobao and others had not seen even after following him for so many years, yet Fang Yang saw through the mystery as soon as he appeared.

One could imagine how complex Sect Master Tongtian's feelings were at this moment.

"The three sects uniting to spread the teachings together is indeed a good idea. However, among the disciples of the Sect of Enlightenment, there are many who hold prejudice against my Sect of Interception. Are you not taking a risk by cooperating with the Sect of Enlightenment?"

"That is why this disciple first sought out the Human Sect. By first reaching a cooperation with the Human Sect, we can then unite with the Fellow Daoists of the Sect of Enlightenment through them. If this matter succeeds, there will be no problem in improving the relationship between the three sects."

"Are you truly trying to improve the relationship between the three sects, or are you trying to help the faction within the Sect of Enlightenment that is at odds with Guangchengzi, and suppress Guangchengzi's position in the Sect of Enlightenment?"

Sect Master Tongtian once again saw through Fang Yang's plan. He didn't even need to divine it; he simply thought about it and reached a conclusion.

Fang Yang even enslaved disciples of the Sect of Interception, so how could he possibly take the initiative to show favor to the Sect of Enlightenment? His intentions were as clear as day before a Saint.

Fang Yang, however, did not feel ashamed but rather proud:

"This is all for the sake of the Human and Enlightenment Sects. Fellow Daoist Guangchengzi holds too much prejudice against our sect. If he is not suppressed, there will surely be a life-and-death battle between the Sect of Enlightenment and the Sect of Interception in the future."

"Moreover, since our sect intends to intercept a glimmer of life for all beings, we cannot ignore the Dragon Clan. That Fellow Daoist Huang Long is the best breakthrough point for our sect."

Sect Master Tongtian ultimately did not object. As long as Fang Yang was not actively provoking a conflict between the Sect of Enlightenment and the Sect of Interception, he could give Primordial Heavenly Venerate an explanation.

Besides, watching the younger generation spar was quite interesting.

"Regarding this matter, I, your teacher, will go find your two senior uncles and discuss it with them. If this plan proves effective, I will capture a Heavenly Dao from a Great Thousand World for you alive to help your World Tree advance."

Concerned with the harmony of the three sects, Sect Master Tongtian became more generous. With a single word, he intended to reward Fang Yang with World Origin.

Fang Yang was overjoyed. He lacked this very thing to contend head-on with Grand Unity Golden Immortals.

With the World Tree helping him sustain his power, he could make Innate Spiritual Treasures unleash Grand Unity Golden Immortal-level power for extended periods.

With increased strength, he could accomplish more.
