Sect Master's Immortal Journey
Chapter 244: Being Prompted by a Sudden Impulse
Chapter 244: Being Prompted by a Sudden Impulse
Liu Dajin carried two storage bags that contained various items like spiritual stones, talismans, and elixirs. As he was affected by the cold energy within his body, he seldom left the Liu Family's mountain gate and had little expenses, resulting in him accumulating a substantial amount of wealth.
However, what interested Meng Zhang the most was not the wealth but a seemingly ordinary jade pendant. After being identified by the Deep EarthSpirit General, it turned out to be a pass talisman for Liu Dajin to enter and exit the protective mountain formation of the Liu Family. With this jade pendant, Liu Dajin could freely come and go even when the formation was activated.
Of course, now that Liu Dajin had passed away, the jade pendant's usefulness would be lost as the Liu Family would promptly adjust the permissions of the protective formation. But Deep EarthSpirit General was a skilled geomancer, and with enough time, he could exploit the jade pendant to find the weak points in the Liu Family's protective formation.
While everyone was waiting for a response from Guang HuiDaoist, Ruan Dadao from the Golden Blade Sect finally arrived at the scene. He casually offered an excuse for his tardiness.
After a long while, Guang HongDaoist finally received a response from Guang HuiDaoist. Guang HuiDaoist mentioned that he had already communicated with the Flying Swan Sect, and they were taking the matter seriously by sending an envoy to handle it.
The search for the sand monster nest by cultivators from several sects temporarily ceased as they kept an eye on the Liu Family's mountain gate, waiting for the arrival of the envoy from the Flying Swan Sect.
Without making the crowd wait for too long, the Flying Swan Sect's envoy arrived at the Liu Family's mountain gate the next day. To their surprise, the envoy was none other than Zhao Jiudou, a disciple of Flying Swan Sect's War Hall Master, Zhao LieFeng, whom everyone knew well.
After exchanging greetings with the group, Zhao Jiudou assured them that he would handle the matter fairly and provide a satisfactory response to everyone.
Zhao Jiudou then proceeded to the front of the Liu Family's protective formation. Liu Dahai, not daring to be negligent toward the Flying Swan Sect's envoy, promptly opened the entrance and invited Zhao Jiudou in.
Knowing that once the matter of Liu Dajin's attack on Meng Zhang was confirmed, the Liu Family would be implicated, Liu Dahai humbly pleaded with Zhao Jiudou, offering numerous benefits. Touched by the promises made by Liu Dahai and bearing a personal grudge against Meng Zhang, Zhao Jiudou was soon inclined to help them.
To smooth things over, they also needed to take care of the situation with Forest Spring Watch. Thus, Zhao Jiudou informed Guang HongDaoist, who then got involved in the Liu Family's affairs.
The Liu Family, being a family with a heritage of several hundred years of Foundation Building cultivation, still had considerable resources. After Liu Dahai spared no expense and made countless promises, Guang HongDaoist was finally persuaded to agree to let the matter go lightly.
As for Meng Zhang, well, since he wasn't harmed in the end, compensating him should make up for the incident. It was ironic that despite killing a member of the Liu Family, he would end up receiving compensation from them, taking advantage of the situation.
Once the three settled on the plan, Guang HongDaoist and Zhao Jiudou left the Liu Family's mountain gate and gathered the key figures from the other sects together. After a moment of preparation, Guang HongDaoist announced the conclusion of the matter.
Liu Dajin had already passed away, leaving no evidence behind. No one could determine for certain how the conflict between him and Meng Zhang arose or who was right and who was wrong. Meng Zhang claimed that Liu Dajin had attacked him, but it was only his word against Liu Family's. Considering the historical enmity between Taiyi Sect and Liu Family, Meng Zhang's credibility was low.
Nevertheless, to demonstrate their sincerity in resolving the matter, Liu Family was willing to apologize to Meng Zhang and offer him a sum of spiritual stones as compensation for his losses.Given that Liu Dajin has already passed away, this matter shall be dropped, and from now on, the Liu Family and Taiyi Sect must not continue to entangle each other.
After listening to Guang HongDaoist's announcement, Meng Zhang looked at him with disbelief.
Guang HongDaoist's words indicated that they had reached some sort of agreement in secret. As a victim of Taiyi Sect, Meng Zhang was ignored by them.
A wave of desolation surged in Meng Zhang's heart. Did Forest Spring Watch treat him like this without any concern for his feelings? Was Taiyi Sect too weak, and was he himself not strong enough? Even if he felt cold and dissatisfied, could he dare to resist Forest Spring Watch?
Since Guang ZhiDaoist Master took over the core of Forest Spring Watch, the sect had changed, and so had Guang HongDaoist's character. The once ethereal and noble Guang HongDaoist had now turned opportunistic and ignoble.
Upon hearing Guang HongDaoist's announced conclusion, Aunt Jin and Jin Qigu looked at Meng Zhang with sympathetic eyes. Lin Shenpo felt somewhat displeased and wanted to say something, but Xu Yishan next to him stopped him. Ruan Dadao, on the other hand, watched Meng Zhang with a gloating expression.
With Guang HongDaoist's announcement, no matter how dissatisfied Meng Zhang felt, he could only endure it forcefully. At this moment, neither Taiyi Sect nor Meng Zhang had the strength to confront Forest Spring Watch, and they couldn't even express their discontent.
After resolving this matter, the various sects dispersed and continued searching for the sand monster's lair.
Back in his designated area for the mission, Meng Zhang had no intention of continuing to search for the sand monster's lair. Instead, he pondered alone about the peculiar state he experienced when Liu Dajin ambushed him.
Deep EarthSpirit General called for Wen Qiansun to study the jade pendant they obtained from Liu Dajin. Wen Qiansun's Cultivation Base was far inferior to Deep EarthSpirit General, and he was still far behind in the way of formations. Deep EarthSpirit General called him over to study together, intending to offer some guidance. Occasionally, Wen Qiansun's unique and unconventional ideas could provide certain inspirations to Deep EarthSpirit General.
The other disciples of Taiyi Sect diligently continued searching for the sand monster's lair.
After much thought, Meng Zhang arrived at a conclusion. The condition that occurred to him at that time should be the legendary "inspiration from the heart" in the Cultivation World.
It was said that those great powers in the Cultivation World would have a sense of induction when certain events closely related to themselves were about to happen. This sense of induction was especially clear when facing impending calamities.
This sense of future induction was what they called "inspiration from the heart."
Generally, only Primordial Spirit True Monarchs or some exceptionally outstanding Gold Core Daoist Masters could possess the ability of "inspiration from the heart." How could Meng Zhang, a mere Foundation Building cultivator, have such an ability?
Thinking it over, Meng Zhang realized that he had been studying the "Grand Evolving Fortune" all these years. Could it be that the "Grand Evolving Fortune" granted him this ability?
Legend had it that Diviners, regardless of their Cultivation Base, might also possess the ability of "inspiration from the heart."
However, after researching for so long, he had gained nothing. How could he inexplicably acquire the ability of "inspiration from the heart"?
Meng Zhang couldn't figure out this problem no matter how much he thought about it, so he had to temporarily set it aside.
