Watching from the Sidelines
"Such a pure and authentic meaning of the sun."
In another private room of a restaurant, a handsome young man with a reserved demeanor and a two-colored emblem of the Red Pine Sect embroidered on his chest sighed in surprise.
"Young Master Liu, is this person truly cultivating a seventh-grade Sun Cultivation Method?"
Li Qiushui, sitting gracefully to the side, glanced slightly to the side with her watery eyes, her exquisite, ethereal face revealing a look of amazement.
"Qi Refinement Fourth Layer can kill a seventh-level Rogue Cultivator Qi Refinement Seventh Layer; a rogue cultivator couldn't do that."
Although he knew that the Sun Path was domineering and unparalleled, the most prominent of all paths, possessing combat power far exceeding his own cultivation level.
Generally speaking, the wondrous power of the Immortal Foundation only gradually emerges after one has Foundation Establishment, and the higher their cultivation level, the more domineering and powerful they become.
Logically speaking, regardless of their lineage, Qi Refinement cultivators should not be so much weaker in combat without the aid of external forces.
She was very curious.
Fortunately, the person beside me comes from the Red Pine Sect, has broader knowledge, and is at the Qi Refinement Perfection, so he should have different insights.
"Even a seventh-grade Cultivation Method cannot achieve this level. This person possesses such pure solar essence, unlike someone from Rogue Cultivator background."
Liu Changfeng frowned slightly, his mind racing.
My purpose in coming to Black Sea City was to seek an opportunity to break through my cultivation fortuitous opportunity in seclusion.
I've heard that a mysterious Alchemist has appeared in Black Sea City, capable of refining two kinds of pills that are extremely effective for Qi Refinement cultivators, and are said to have the effect of enhancing Divine Sense.
Moreover, it's quite strange that he's a cultivator who practices the path of the sun and is also searching for the Cultivation Method of the moon. That's why I came to take a look and see if the pills are genuine.
Upon seeing this person now, the pure essence of the sun he exuded made him feel that this person's destiny was extraordinary.
Currently, the Supreme Yang Dao Lineage only has two True Lord. The appearance of this person suggests some unforeseen event.
However, he soon shook his head inwardly, not to mention whether those two Lesser Yang True Lord would be willing for the Sun Path to produce a True Lord.
The Underworld, the Sword Sect, and the Buddhist Land would certainly not allow True Lord of the Sun Path to appear.
Thinking of this, he instantly felt a sense of unease and became somewhat reluctant to take the initiative to contact this person.
If so many things are really involved behind the scenes, let alone someone at the Qi Refinement Perfection, even the Red Pine Sect wouldn't be able to withstand it.
"Not like Rogue Cultivator?"
"Then what is this person's purpose in appearing in Black Sea City?"
Li Qiushui frowned slightly, her gaze shifting downwards.
The appearance of this person brought with him the so-called Minor Restoration Pill and Divine Intent Pill, making it possible for the Qi Refinement Ninth Layer in the Du Household to Foundation Establishment.
What are the benefits of disrupting the original balance of Black Sea City?
"Just keep watching."
Liu Changfeng shook his head slightly.
Even if someone is plotting against this person, it's not clear from their Qi Refinement level alone; they must at least have reached the Immortal Foundation.
The immortal lords have ascended to the heavens, and things are getting more and more chaotic now.
You're fine.
Fang Mingyuan's face was gloomy.
Seeing Du Qingluo naturally blocking Wu Song's path, he ultimately chose not to make a move.
Based on the strength this person has displayed, even with Du Qingluo, who is at the Qi Refinement Sixth Layer, the two of them working together would not gain any advantage.
If you can't take it, there's no point in waiting any longer.
The Du Household thought that with this person, they could dominate Black Sea City, but little did they know that it would only hasten their demise.
Let those two be smug for a while.
He snorted coldly, flicked his sleeve, and turned to leave.
"Brother Wu, are you alright?"
Seeing Fang Mingyuan leave, Du Qingluo breathed a sigh of relief, turned around, and looked him up and down with a smile.
This time, I truly witnessed Wu Song's power.
Are these cultivators of the Sun Path?
To think that someone could possess such combat power while only at the Qi Refinement.
It's true that we can't judge things by common sense.
"I'm not the one in trouble."
Xu Fan shrugged and smiled:
"Let's go, lest we be stared at like monkeys."
He glanced at the city guards who had arrived late, and then left with Du Qingluo.
"Fang Mingyuan just left like that?"
"Two against one, if you don't leave, you'll just be embarrassing if you stay?"
"This person's actions have thoroughly offended the Fang Household, and he's likely to face trouble in the future."
"This person is eccentric and lacks social skills; it's best to stay away from him in the future."
"Otherwise, if we happen to run into them that day, it wouldn't be good if we got covered in blood."
The crowd in the market below was buzzing with discussion, but gradually calmed down.
"It seems this person has spotted us?"
Upstairs, Liu Changfeng's expression shifted; he understood the implied meaning in the previous words, and a smile curled at the corner of his lips.
"Interesting, such powerful Divine Sense."
Compared to this person's possession of pure solar essence, the strength of his Divine Sense is rather unremarkable.
To be able to sell pills like the Divine Intent Pill, which enhance Divine Sense, one must have consumed quite a few oneself.
Besides, he didn't try to hide it, so it's not a big deal if he finds out.
"We'll see if those bald monks cause trouble for this person later; then we'll naturally see some clues."
I recall what Master once said: that the one in the Buddhist Land on the sun and had the intention to spread Buddhism to the east.
Nature does not allow anyone to possibly attain the position of the Sun Fruit.
Whether it will succeed depends on the Sword Sect and the Underworld.
"Indeed, there are quite a few Buddhist practitioners appearing in the Land of Wu nowadays, and I've heard they're spreading the Great Universal Dharma Flower Return to Oneness Scripture, causing chaos in many places."
Li Qiushui sighed and shook her head.
Her knowledge was limited, unlike Liu Changfeng, who came from the Red Pine Sect and had a True Person, so she could only inquire indirectly.
Externally, Foundation Establishment dragon is wreaking havoc on the islands of the South Sea, causing damage to the family's business.
With the Du Household constantly rising in power, it is necessary to establish two Foundation Establishment within one family.
The Li Household has always been associated with the Water Virtue and has a long-standing feud with the Du Household, making them the most vulnerable among the three families in Black Sea City.
The Fang Household cultivates the Metal Virtue element, and with that Sword Sect present, their Metal Virtue spiritual energy is most active, making them the strongest in combat, far more relaxed than the Li Household.
"That's a matter for the adults. We're just Qi Refinement at the Qi Refining stage; it's good enough if we don't get involved."
Liu Changfeng shook his head slightly.
Even his master remained tight-lipped about anything involving those three, daring not to elaborate.
Even Purple Mansion True Person is like this, so he, a Qi Refinement cultivator, was unwilling to say more, since he didn't know much either.
As for the Buddhist Land and the Sword Sect sect, just observe them.
The only thing to remember is not to get involved.
That's why he gave up the idea of contacting Wu Song; he figured he could just get the Divine Intent Pill and the Minor Restoration Pill through other means.
"That's true."
"It's just Young Master Liu."
"If that black dragon isn't eliminated, you'll likely miss out on that fortuitous opportunity. I wonder..."
Li Qiushui bit her lip lightly, her watery eyes falling on this person.
According to her father, even if the three Foundation Establishment families joined forces, they might not be able to eliminate that Foundation Establishment Black Dragon.
The Black Dragon has extremely high bloodline, so even if it is brought to land, there is still not much chance of success.
Among the three Foundation Establishment, her grandfather was the least skilled in combat, and his direct strength was no match for the Fang Household and Du Household.
Cooperating with the Fang Household is like asking a tiger for its skin.
If something goes wrong, the situation might not be any better than it is now.
A balance of power among the three parties is what the Li Household desires most.
Eliminating either the Fang Household or the Du Household would not be ideal.
Therefore, her grandfather had been waiting to see if the Du Household who had gone into seclusion to attempt to break through to the Foundation Establishment would succeed.
"This matter still needs to be handled by the three of you. I am merely at the Qi Refinement Perfection; I do not possess the strength to confront that black dragon."
Liu Changfeng remained expressionless and gently shook his head.
The purpose of this visit is to seize the fortuitous opportunity to Foundation Establishment, and to urge the three families to do so as soon as possible. How could I possibly waste my own trump cards to interfere?
What happens to the three families in Black Sea City, or the Li Household, is none of his concern.
