Keeping a Low Profile

What was the Clear Sky Sect like at its peak? When Tang Chen was around, who dared to provoke them? Why didn't they talk about biding their time and concealing their abilities back then?

It's because their strength has declined and they can't win anymore, so they're hiding.

If a powerhouse of Tang Chen's caliber were really in charge, let's see if they would still hide.

Therefore, ancestral precepts and rules are all meaningless; strength is the only true measure of success.

When a nation is strong, it opens its doors wide to welcome all nations; when it is weak, it closes its doors and pretends not to exist.

Very realistic.

So, will the Clear Sky Sect just keep hiding like this?

Of course not.

According to historical patterns, the Clear Sky Sect always makes a comeback after each period of seclusion.

After the first time Tang San sealed off the mountain, he returned, leading the Clear Sky Sect back into the martial world, and even defeated the Spirit Hall, enjoying immense glory.

What about the second time the mountain was closed?

According to Tang San's plan, he must have also arranged the timing of his comeback.

When will you return to the court?

It's very simple, when the new "Tang San" appears.

That is, Huo Yuhao.

Think about it, who is Huo Yuhao?

Tang San's handpicked successor, the future son-in-law of the Divine Realm, and a core piece in the grand scheme of the Douluo Continent.

What if such an important piece is in danger? What if the Tang Sect can't hold on?

Then it's time for the Clear Sky Sect to step in.

It's time to reveal the trump card that's been hidden for ten thousand years.

Therefore, it is foreseeable that the Clear Sky Sect will make a comeback in the near future.

Moreover, the timing of his comeback will definitely be exceptionally good, either when Huo Yuhao faces a life-or-death crisis, and a powerful figure from the Clear Sky Sect descends from the sky to save him from dire straits.

Either it was during the most chaotic time on the mainland that the Clear Sky Sect suddenly appeared and turned the tide.

Make it as dramatic as possible.

That's Tang San's style after all; how could he not show off a little?

What happens after his comeback?

Of course, we should support Huo Yuhao, help him level up, help him unify the continent, and help him become a god.

Then, after Huo Yuhao ascends to immortality, the Clear Sky Sect will continue to hide away, waiting for the next genius.

A perfect loop.

It's a cycle that happens every ten thousand years, and each time it relies on a genius to carry it to success, after which it goes back to its old ways.

You know what, this model is actually quite stable.

As long as the Tang Family bloodline continues, and as long as a peerless genius emerges every ten thousand years, the Clear Sky Sect can continue to be passed down.

It was tough on the disciples in the middle, who spent their entire lives hiding in the mountains and never even saw the outside world.

Being born into the Clear Sky Sect, I don't know if it's a blessing or a curse.

Fortunately, resources are plentiful, so there's no need to worry about cultivation. As long as you're not too stupid, you can cultivate to a very high level.

Unfortunately, he was trapped in the mountains his whole life, like being in prison, possessing great strength but having nowhere to use it.

Of course, it's not like you can't come out at all.

Every few decades, the sect will select a few outstanding disciples to go out and gain experience, broaden their horizons, and incidentally make their presence felt.

But while it's a training exercise, one must not reveal their identity, must not cause trouble, and must return once the training is over.

Like taking a break for exercise.

It's quite frustrating to think about.

However, everyone's pursuits are different.

Some people like to roam the world and dominate the scene, while others prefer to cultivate themselves quietly and live a life free from worldly strife.

The disciples of the Clear Sky Sect are most likely the latter type.

After all, the ideas instilled in us from childhood are "low-key, patient, and not involved in disputes," and over time, we get used to it.

It's just tough on those ambitious and aspiring disciples who have great skills but are bound by the sect's rules and can't fully utilize them.

I wonder if anyone has ever been unable to stand it and run away over the years.

I think so.

After all, where there is oppression, there will be resistance.

But what good would running away do? The Clear Sky Hammer Martial Soul is too distinctive; one look and you know you're from the Clear Sky Sect.

If the sect elders come after us and drag us back for a beating, it will be a losing proposition.

Therefore, most people still choose to stay put.

Anyway, there are plenty of cultivation resources and no worries about food and drink, so I might as well stay put.

Living a life of leisure and waiting to die is also a way of life.

It remains to be seen whether the Clear Sky Sect can regain its former glory this time around.

After all, times have changed.

Ten thousand years ago, the hammer was the ultimate truth.

Now? Soul Tool have appeared. A single shot from Level Nine Soul Guidance Device can obliterate even Titled Douluo.

No matter how powerful your Clear Sky Hammer is, can it withstand Soul Guidance Cannon? That's hard to say.

Star Dou Forest, at the Lake of Life.

After hearing this, Gu Yuena's lips curled into a meaningful smile.

"Tang San's plan is quite shrewd."

One is overt, the other covert; one is offensive, the Tang Sect defensive Clear Sky Sect is responsible for expanding territory, while the Haotian Sect is responsible for providing a safety net.

All possibilities have been considered.

Unfortunately...

Gu Yuena slowly opened her eyes, a cold glint flashing in her purple pupils.

Unfortunately, he miscalculated one thing.

His daughter is not a pawn to be manipulated.

With Gu Yuena's intelligence, she had already guessed that the Diary Copy could not possibly be hers alone.

Since the Three-Eyed Golden Lion has it, it's not surprising that Wang Dong'er would also have Diary Copy.

Lin Ye could see all of this, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion could see it, and Wang Dong'er could naturally see it as well.

After Wang Dong'er sees this and learns the whole truth, how could she possibly allow Tang San to arrange things as she did in the original timeline? Wouldn't that turn them into enemies?

The Clear Sky Sect, is it? Their trump card hidden for ten thousand years, is it?

Gu Yuena sneered.

Whether revealing this trump card will help Huo Yuhao or harm him remains to be seen.

She wanted to see how Tang San's game of chess, which he had been playing for ten thousand years, would end up in such a mess.

Gu Yuena closed her eyes, her divine sense sinking into silence once more.

No rush, take your time.

This game of chess is only just beginning to get interesting.

Having discussed so much history, what role does the Clear Sky Sect actually play in the storyline of the Peerless Tang Clan Sect?

To be honest, not many.

At least in the early and middle stages, the Clear Sky Sect was basically invisible, with no one even making a direct appearance.

However, not appearing in a prominent position does not mean they lack presence.

The shadow of the Clear Sky Sect has always been there.

Does Huo Yuhao possess the Clear Sky Hammer in his Martial Soul? It's not explicitly stated, but is it hidden?

Don't forget, Tang Wutong is Tang San's daughter, and the blood of the Tang Family flows in her veins.

Will Tang Wutong possess the Clear Sky Hammer, Martial Soul inherited by the Tang Family?

Of course there are.

It's just been sealed away.

Just like Tang San's Clear Sky Hammer back then, he always kept it hidden and didn't reveal it until the crucial moment.

Tang Wutong's Clear Sky Hammer will probably follow the same pattern.

When a life-or-death crisis occurs, or when the plot requires it.

With a "bang," the Clear Sky Hammer was unsealed, its combat power soaring, astonishing everyone.

A standard Tang San- style operation.

Furthermore, where is the Clear Sky Sect? Nobody knows.

But one thing is certain: it's in some extremely well-hidden, easily defensible location.

It might be deep in the mountains, in a secret realm, or even in a secluded little space.
