Chapter 577: Shocking data, discussion in the main hall

~15 min read 2,868 words

Facing Cen Zhe's inquiry and guess, Ye Qingxuan did not deny it, but looked directly into Cen Zhe's eyes and nodded calmly:

"Not bad, the resources of the Green Demon Realm can indeed accelerate the growth of the Dongxuan Fudi, but the specific method is only known to me for the time being, and this is also part of the Dongxuan Fudi cultivation path I have already perfected."

When putting forward this request to Cen Zhe, Ye Qingxuan didn't think about hiding it from Cen Zhe.

Without admitting this point, Cen Zhe would probably not agree to his second demand.

At that time, wouldn't his second demand be put forward in vain? Only by admitting that the resources of the Green Demon Realm can accelerate the growth of the Dongxuan Fudi and indicating that this is part of the perfected Dongxuan Fudi cultivation path, would Cen Zhe have hope of agreeing to his request.

Therefore, Ye Qingxuan simply directly admitted Cen Zhe's guess.

Sure enough, after Ye Qingxuan admitted Cen Zhe's guess, Cen Zhe's gaze shrank slightly.

The intention to refuse also faded.

Since the resources of the Green Demon Realm can accelerate the growth of the Dongxuan Fudi, are extremely important to his disciple, and involve the perfection of the Dongxuan Fudi cultivation path.

Cen Zhe naturally would not easily refuse Ye Qingxuan's request again.

But the sect rules and laws of the Profound Yi Tianzong... after pondering for a long time, Cen Zhe finally spoke slowly:

"Your second request is inconsistent with the laws of the Profound Yi Tianzong."

Seeing the disappointed look on Ye Qingxuan's face, Cen Zhe changed the subject again:

"However, this master can allow you to open shops in the states, counties, and prefectures belonging to the sect within the sect's scope, and acquire Green Demon Realm resources from the outside at a slight premium."

"As for how much you can eat, it depends on yourself."

"The shops you open will be protected by the sect, but the manpower and material resources required to open the shops will not be provided by the sect."

Although this would still infringe on the sect's interests to a certain extent, it would at least not violate the sect's rules and laws on the surface.

For the sake of his disciple Ye Qingxuan and the future of the Dongxuan Fudi cultivation path, Cen Zhe ultimately chose to compromise.

Hearing Cen Zhe's plan, Ye Qingxuan's face suddenly showed excitement, and he said decisively:

"Master, don't worry, all the needs for opening shops can be solved by disciple himself, and I dare not trouble the sect anymore."

He had laid out his forces in the four domains outside the Di Xuan Realm for so many years, and the thing he lacked the least was manpower.

Besides, even if he didn't mobilize manpower from the four domains outside the Di Xuan Realm to avoid arousing the sect's suspicion and causing unnecessary trouble.

With sufficient spirit stones, wouldn't there be as much manpower as he wanted to manage the shops?

At that time, as long as he left one of his clones in the outside world to coordinate.

As long as there is the protection of the Profound Yi Tianzong, opening more shops is nothing more than consuming a large sum of spirit stones.

Looking at the excitement on Ye Qingxuan's face, Cen Zhe nodded slightly, and a trace of a smile hung on his face.

After pondering for a moment, Cen Zhe restrained the smile on his face, looked at Ye Qingxuan with his eyes, and spoke sincerely:

"Qingxuan, today the sect helps you, hoping that you can also repay the sect in the future."

The reason why he gave Ye Qingxuan such a big reward at once, and even didn't hesitate to damage the interests of the Profound Yi Tianzong, naturally had reasons.

From a long-term perspective, Cen Zhe believed that his choice was far more beneficial than harmful to the Profound Yi Tianzong.

Although Ye Qingxuan is a disciple of the Profound Yi Tianzong, although he is Cen Zhe's disciple.

But ever since Ye Qingxuan became a Dongxuan Fudi cultivator, his cultivation base has advanced by leaps and bounds, and in this process, whether it was the sect or Cen Zhe himself, the help to Ye Qingxuan was minimal.

In the future, when Ye Qingxuan grows up, one cannot hope to bind Ye Qingxuan to the Profound Yi Tianzong completely relying on the nominal master-disciple relationship, right?

Especially a cultivator like Ye Qingxuan who has great opportunities, great secrets, and has the opportunity to perfect the Dongxuan Fudi cultivation path in the future.

So some things, even if Ye Qingxuan doesn't ask for them actively, the sect must give them actively.

Whether as the Sect Master of the Profound Yi Tianzong or as Ye Qingxuan's master, he should give Ye Qingxuan the help he needs before Ye Qingxuan has completely grown up.

Only in this way, after Ye Qingxuan grows up, will he not easily break away from the Profound Yi Tianzong.

After the Mahayana realm, the constraints on cultivators, besides the Dao oath, only remain in karma and Dao heart.

But as a Dongxuan Fudi disciple, Ye Qingxuan has few interpersonal relationships in the Profound Yi Tianzong, and is vaguely half-transcendent outside the Profound Yi Tianzong.

Coupled with the fact that Ye Qingxuan's growth speed is too fast, the karma produced with the Profound Yi Tianzong is too small, so that Ye Qingxuan's karma and Dao heart are not deeply entangled with the Profound Yi Tianzong.

Therefore, Cen Zhe gave Ye Qingxuan great help before Ye Qingxuan had completely grown up, further deepening the karmic entanglement between Ye Qingxuan and the Profound Yi Tianzong.

Let Ye Qingxuan's Dao heart have some connection with the Profound Yi Tianzong.

Ye Qingxuan doesn't know this point now, but even if he knew, Ye Qingxuan wouldn't refuse Cen Zhe's reward.

Because up to now, although Ye Qingxuan has established no small forces outside the Profound Yi Tianzong, the establishment of these forces is only to help him scrape resources and accelerate his growth speed.

As long as the Profound Yi Tianzong doesn't fail him, he, who is peaceful by nature, didn't intend to break away from the Profound Yi Tianzong in the future.

So after hearing Cen Zhe's words, Ye Qingxuan looked at Cen Zhe with a firm gaze and said sonorously: "Master, don't worry, the sect will not fail Qingxuan, and Qingxuan will definitely not fail the sect!"

"That's very good!"

Hearing this, Cen Zhe nodded with satisfaction.

After thinking for a moment, Cen Zhe suggested with a smile:

"Qingxuan, if you want a large amount of high-order spiritual minerals, or even other high-order resources, you can try to spend some thought on the Dongxuan Fudi cultivation path."

"After you really successfully perfect the Dongxuan Fudi cultivation path in the future, let alone mere eighth-order spiritual minerals, even tenth-order spiritual minerals, or even other tenth-order heaven-and-earth treasures, this master can help you ask for them from the Di Xuan Realm Alliance."

Hearing Cen Zhe's words, even Ye Qingxuan, who was calm, couldn't help but be moved, and said with emotion:

"Tenth-order heaven-and-earth treasures? Really? Master, you must keep your word?"

Seeing Ye Qingxuan take the bait, Cen Zhe looked up at the sky, held his head high and chest out, and said: "That's natural, this seat is the Sect Master of the Profound Yi Tianzong, would I lie to my own disciple?"

After speaking, Cen Zhe calculated the time and spoke again:

"Alright, this master still needs to go to the Central Domain to participate in the Di Xuan Realm Alliance meeting, so I'll go first."

"Spend more thought on the Dongxuan Fudi cultivation path. If it is really perfected, it will have no small benefits for the entire Di Xuan Realm and for yourself."

Cen Zhe didn't explicitly state the importance of the Dongxuan Fudi cultivation path to the Di Xuan Realm.

Although Ye Qingxuan kept saying that there was hope of completely perfecting the Dongxuan Fudi cultivation path, Cen Zhe also very much hoped that this disciple of his could completely perfect the Dongxuan Fudi cultivation path. Even he was just racking his brains to motivate Ye Qingxuan to perfect the Dongxuan Fudi cultivation path.

But in Cen Zhe's heart, he actually didn't hold much hope that Ye Qingxuan could perfect the complete Dongxuan Fudi cultivation path in a short time.

After all, the Dongxuan Fudi cultivation path that hadn't been perfected in the Di Xuan Realm for tens of thousands of years, how could it be perfected by Ye Qingxuan in a few hundred or a thousand years?

It was precisely because the difficulty was too great that Cen Zhe didn't explicitly state the importance of the Dongxuan Fudi cultivation path to the Di Xuan Realm now, not wanting to put this heavy burden directly on his disciple.

However, Cen Zhe didn't say it, but Ye Qingxuan, who had been observing the situation of the two worlds in secret, how could he not know this point? Therefore, after hearing Cen Zhe's entrustment, Ye Qingxuan also restrained his expression and said solemnly: "Master, don't worry! Disciple will definitely completely perfect the Dongxuan Fudi cultivation path."

After leaving the Qingxuan Dongxuan Fudi with satisfaction, Cen Zhe fled into the void and rushed toward the Central Domain.

After traveling in the void for a period of time, Cen Zhe successfully arrived at the headquarters established by the Di Xuan Realm Alliance in the Central Domain.

The headquarters of the Di Xuan Realm Alliance, established in the Central Domain, Central State, high above the clouds, is a group of palaces standing in the air, sitting on the clouds, looming.

Teams of cultivators, or high-order cultivators traveling alone, are currently very busy going in and out of various palaces.

On each palace, profound array patterns are engraved, echoing with the array patterns on other palaces, giving people a feeling of being naturally formed.

If cultivators below the Mahayana realm look directly, their hearts will sense a vast pressure within it.

And the main hall of the Di Xuan Realm Alliance headquarters is an immortal spiritual palace comparable to a large city in the middle of the palace group.

After Cen Zhe entered this main hall, more than a dozen Mahayana realm powerhouses had already arrived in the main hall.

Including the Sect Master of the Immortal Xuan Sect, Immortal Xuanzi, the Patriarch of the Zhan Tai Immortal Clan, Zhan Tai Donghua, the Sect Master of the Blade Sect, Yan Wuji, the Sect Master of the Sword Sect, Qingtian Sword... After Cen Zhe entered the main hall and exchanged greetings with everyone, he sat in his seat and waited quietly for Master Lingxiao's arrival.

As time passed, a Mahayana realm powerhouse would enter the main hall from time to time.

The seats in the main hall were all standing in the air, arranged in a circle, and there was no distinction between high and low.

Half an incense stick of time later, the representatives of the Mahayana realm powerhouses of the major hegemon-level forces, pseudo-hegemon-level forces, and rogue cultivator alliances in the Di Xuan Realm had all entered the main hall one after another.

When everyone arrived, Master Lingxiao's figure slowly appeared in the main hall and stood before his seat.

After looking around at everyone, Master Lingxiao spoke with a stern expression:

"In the ten years since you fellow Daoists returned, I think you have already understood the current situation in the Di Xuan Realm, right?"

After speaking, looking at the many Mahayana realm powerhouses in the seats nodding, Master Lingxiao continued:

"Today's meeting, I want to discuss whether the two-world wormhole passage still has the necessity to continue to exist."

"According to recent statistics from the Di Xuan Realm Alliance, since the two-world wormhole passage was opened in the Di Xuan Realm, nearly forty percent of the mid- and low-order cultivators in our Di Xuan Realm have fallen."

"This is still data after a steady stream of people have stepped onto the path of cultivation every year."

"Otherwise, the number of fallen mid- and low-order cultivators of the older generation could reach an astonishing seventy percent or so."

"Besides this, the number of mortals in the Di Xuan Realm, in the past few hundred years, not only has not grown, but has begun to decline on a large scale."

"Compared to before the two-world wormhole passage was opened, the number of mortal living beings in the Di Xuan Realm has decreased by nearly thirty percent."

"If it weren't for the fact that many mortals were protected within the scope of your fellow Daoists' forces, I'm afraid the proportion of the decline in the number of mortal living beings in the Di Xuan Realm would be even greater."

Hearing the data provided by Master Lingxiao, the faces of the many Mahayana realm powerhouses in the main hall also began to become solemn.

Even Cen Zhe, at this moment, was also frowning tightly.

As a hegemon-level force, the Profound Yi Tianzong has a relatively large defense force for the states within its sphere of influence.

Although many older generation disciples did fall in the process of fighting with the Green Demon Clan, the proportion did not reach the astonishing seventy percent, and even the comprehensive data of forty percent was not reached.

And the mortals slaughtered by the Green Demon Clan within the scope of the Profound Yi Tianzong were even as low as less than ten percent.

This casualty proportion was originally within Cen Zhe's acceptable range.

But what Cen Zhe didn't expect was that the casualty proportion of the entire Di Xuan Realm would be so outrageously high.

In fact, this casualty proportion seems outrageous, but it is actually reasonable.

The Di Xuan Realm is too big, and not every state, county, or prefecture has high-order cultivators sitting in charge.

Among them, the fall of cultivators, besides dying in the invasion and hunting of the Green Demon Clan, more fell in the process of invading the Green Demon Realm.

As for why so many mortals in the Di Xuan Realm fell? When the nest is overturned, there are no whole eggs.

Green Demon Clan invasion, after the powerhouses in an area are slaughtered, this area is destined to be full of misery.

Other cultivators still have room to escape, but the mortals living in this area can only wait for death helplessly.

Since the two-world passage was opened a few hundred years ago, the Di Xuan Realm has

The reason why regions like Star Fall Continent, where many of Ye Qingxuan's clones are located, are calm and peaceful is simply because Ye Qingxuan's clones are strong enough.

It is not that Star Fall Continent and other such places were already calm and peaceful, and thus Ye Qingxuan's clones settled there.

Rather, it is because Ye Qingxuan's many clones settled in these places that these areas became calm, peaceful, and gradually stabilized.

It is just like the important areas within the territories of various powerful factions in the Di Xuan Realm, where strong individuals stand guard.

If it were not for the fact that the Di Xuan Realm Alliance later organized teams of Deity Transformation realm cultivators and many high-order cultivators to patrol various parts of the Di Xuan Realm, tracking and killing the invading Green Demon race.

Coupled with the fact that over these years, in the process of fighting against the Green Demon race, strong individuals have risen in many places to protect their homelands.

The data mentioned by Master Lingxiao would be even more exaggerated.

It can only be said that in this great era, luck is a very important thing.

Sometimes, luckily living in a stable area is already better than many small opportunities.

After all, even within the Di Xuan Realm, when facing the invasion of the Green Demon race, most cultivators below the Void Penetration realm are powerless to control their own destiny.

Once caught in the aftermath of an invasion by the strong of the Green Demon race, and unfortunately falling, then everything becomes empty.

After the arrival of the great era, it indeed brought hope to all cultivators to break through innate shackles, but it brought even more death.

It is not just the Di Xuan Realm; isn't the Green Demon Realm the same?

Not to mention anything else, just the number of Green Demon race members slaughtered by Ye Qingxuan's various clones in the Green Demon Realm over these years is probably already countless, right? Every time he encounters a Green Demon tribe below the Seventh Order, Ye Qingxuan's clones basically leave no survivors.

Accumulated over hundreds of years, I am afraid even Ye Qingxuan himself cannot remember exactly how many Green Demon race members have died at his hands, right? In the great hall, after a moment of silence, the Sect Master of the Immortal Xuan Sect, Xuan Xuanzi, finally spoke and suggested with some hesitation: "How about we find all the wormholes opened by the Green Demon Realm in the Di Xuan Realm and destroy them all?"
