To be honest, Chen Shuangbai wasn't very interested in tracing the origins of the Chen Clan family.
But as for that ancient Daoist temple... I'm still quite interested.
However, the aura emanating from this jade vessel, which resembled both Secret Method and a prayer, was rather incomprehensible. Perhaps one would need to carefully consult Nengren or ponder it.
There's no rush.
"Master, news has come from home that the Flood Dragon Clan has conquered Feiyu Cave and Green Mud Cave in just a few days, showing a clear intention to annex the outer sea!"
Jade Screen Peak.
Moon-Gazing Pavilion.
Chen Shuangbai was organizing his cultivation in front of the pavilion, and also taking the opportunity to comprehend more of the profound principles of Grand Yin.
Gao Yi arrived in a hurry, looking somewhat uneasy, and said the following.
Chen Shuangbai stood up, took the Jade Slip from Gao Yi's Gao Clan, and examined it. Sure enough, she heard Gao Ling's voice coming from it, saying:
"Sword Immortal!"
" Beigong Xuan made a ruthless move a few days ago, targeting the Sixteen Demon Caves... Now, the outer seas are in turmoil, and the Flood Dragon Clan is advancing with unstoppable momentum. Feiyu Cave and Green Mud Cave have fallen one after another, and the remaining demon caves are filled with panic. Many cave masters have already sent envoys to surrender to the Flood Dragon Clan."
"At this rate, the outer seas will be entirely under the control of the Jiaolong within half a month at most."
Chen Shuangbai knew that the Flood Dragon Clan was restless.
Or perhaps, dragons are inherently cunning and domineering.
There are only two openly recognized Nascent Soul Late Stage at sea.
Both of them are from the Flood Dragon Clan.
Beigong Xuan and Beigong Lan.
Some time ago, the Flood Dragon Clan suffered a setback in the cultivation world of the sea, thinking that they might be able to live a peaceful life for a while... But now, it seems that they can no longer hide their ambitions.
That old dragon certainly chose a good time.
Chen Shuangbai muttered to herself.
The domestic situation is currently unstable, and major domestic factions have historically paid little attention to maritime affairs.
No matter how much trouble the Flood Dragon Clan causes, as long as they don't intend to go ashore, no one has ever bothered them.
However, Gao Ling's Jade Slip merely described the situation without making any request for assistance.
I thought about it.
Chen Shuangbai understood, and looking at his four disciples, asked, "Of the eight great immortal markets at sea, how many are in the Nascent Soul Late Stage?"
Gao Yi told the truth.
"The sea is different from the sea at home; sectarian lineages here have a more orderly tradition."
"There are several Nascent Soul Late Stage within the seas, but among the human cultivation forces at sea, there is only one Nascent Soul Late Stage."
"The ancestor of Clouds Arrive Immortal Market, the foremost of the eight immortal markets, was also a descendant of the pioneers of the immortal market system—"
" Tower Lord Yunlai!"
"This master of the building is said to be of extremely high seniority and has an exceptionally long lifespan. Since achieving the Nascent Soul Late Stage, he has been controlling a magnificent building, which has been suspended in the fierce winds for a long time, rarely falling back to the sea."
"But whether he appears often or not, it is precisely because of his existence that our eight great immortal cities have been able to establish themselves in the inner sea."
This was something that Chen Shuangbai, a younger generation, had never heard of before.
Gao Yi looked thoughtful and continued:
"Although the eight immortal markets have their own disagreements, the immortal market system is the foundation of the cultivation world in the Inner Sea... Even if the Flood Dragon Clan wants to make a move against the Inner Sea, the Tower Lord Yunlai is an obstacle they absolutely cannot overcome!"
"Therefore, this is the fundamental reason why the family did not intend to seek help from overseas!"
Gao Yi's analysis is both right and wrong!
Aside from having a senior Nascent Soul Late Stage on their own side to suppress the fortune, the main reason was that they didn't want the people at sea to interfere too much.
Otherwise... the current maritime landscape will also change!
But with the Flood Dragon Clan so ambitious, Chen Shuangbai couldn't help but have some doubts.
Although he did not know or had never seen this Tower Lord Yunlai.
But in the end, he was just a person.
However, the Flood Dragon Clan only has two Nascent Soul Late Stage: Beigong Xuan and Beigong Lan.
It's still a dragon...
The waves at sea are, after all, just waves at sea.
The various sects and factions within the country only spared a little attention to occasionally inquire about the news, and then let it go.
Chen Shuangbai knew that the current situation wouldn't be stable for long.
But to his utter surprise, it only lasted for such a short time.
After Xuanchengzi established the Renewed Net Sect under the pretext of continuing the lineage of the True Net Cult, Chen Shuangbai knew that this senior was a restless person.
Just as expected!
The Renewed Net Sect and the Compassionate Chan Way of the Yuan Kingdom announced their alliance and established the Net Chan Dao.
In a short period of time, a large army of cultivators numbering tens of thousands was assembled and, starting from the Renewed Net Sect, invaded the territory of the Yuan Kingdom.
Furthermore, the Compassionate Chan Way School was originally Yuan Kingdom faction.
In just a few days, they have already encroached on one-third of the Yuan Kingdom's territory and are now engaged in fierce fighting with the Buddhist Alliance!
Furthermore, Luo Chan Dao's target was not only the Yuan Kingdom, but also two Nascent Soul cultivators who crossed the border and launched a large-scale invasion into the territory of the Xuanxiao Sect in the neighboring Zhao Kingdom.
The Profound Firmament Sect naturally launched a counterattack immediately.
The flames of war have reignited in the border region between the Yuan Kingdom and Zhao Kingdom!
A crimson communication sword streaked across the sky, whistling sharply as it landed directly in front of the Moon-Gazing Pavilion, embedding itself in the bluestone floor, its blade still trembling.
Chen Shuangbai raised an eyebrow slightly, and with a wave of his hand, the communication flying sword flew into his palm on its own.
He probed into it with his Divine Sense, and after a moment, a pair of handsome eyebrows twitched slightly.
"Yo!"
"I knew it. This old senior is indeed a restless fellow."
The message came from the Sword Alliance.
It is said that within the Net Chan Dao, there are not only the two major sects, the Compassionate Chan Way and the Renewed Net Sect, but also the Lifeless City and the Blood Sea Dao, which have been completely defeated and fled from the Ancient Kingdom by the Sword Alliance.
The two Nascent Soul Cultivator from Blood Sea Dao and Lifeless City are now leading the invasion of the Profound Firmament Sect's territory.
Jade Soul Palace.
The figure of True Lord Jihai appeared on the water mirror.
" Xuhong, True Lord Xuanyuan of the Profound Firmament Sect has sent a letter requesting that our Vast Waves Alliance send troops to reinforce his family."
"That's not surprising."
Chen Shuangbai chuckled and said, "Before the Old Devil Hentian attacked my sect, his Profound Firmament Sect planned to join my Vast Waves Alliance... However, due to the Old Devil Hentian's affair and the changing situation in the sea, my family was too busy to take care of ourselves."
"His Profound Firmament Sect delayed the matter, and my family no longer has this idea."
"His family only has two Nascent Soul; how could they possibly be a match for Net Chan Dao?"
Two more water mirrors appeared.
The figures of True Lord Suwen of the Turbid Wave Pavilion and Old Man Fish Pillow of the Flower Washing Sword Sect also appeared above.
True Lord Suwen looked at Chen Shuangbai with gentle eyes and asked, " Xuhong, in your opinion... should our alliance send troops to help the Profound Firmament Sect this time?"
"Out!"
"Of course we'll pay!"
Chen Shuangbai laughed and said, "This is a great opportunity to manipulate the Profound Firmament Sect, a chance to force them to bow down to our alliance!"
"But the most pressing matter is that they want reinforcements from the Vast Billows Alliance without making any promises... They're really overestimating themselves."
None of those who can cultivate to the Nascent Soul stage are fools.
These three veteran Nascent Soul had long harbored the idea of ruthlessly annihilating the Profound Firmament Sect... Now that they've finally encountered this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, why would they agree so quickly?
