Sect Master's Immortal Journey

Chapter 298: Thwarting

If it were just that, it would be fine.

Green Bamboo Mountain, as a sect, was always a disposable pawn in front of the Flying Swan Sect. After a series of setbacks, Green Bamboo Mountain suffered heavy losses, with only Azure Bamboo and Zhujian, two Foundation Building cultivators who were no longer young, remaining.

In consideration of the next generation of Green Bamboo Mountain and to ensure that there would be no gap in Foundation Building cultivators, Azure Bamboo repeatedly pleaded with the Flying Swan Sect to sell a Foundation Building Pill to Green Bamboo Mountain. However, after the chaos caused by the sand monsters, the Flying Swan Sect had used up all their Foundation Building Pills on post-war rewards. There were no spare Foundation Building Pills to sell to Azure Bamboo.

Azure Bamboo believed that the Flying Swan Sect was intentionally evading their request and refusing to help Green Bamboo Mountain continue its legacy. Feeling deeply loyal and devoted to the Flying Swan Sect, Azure Bamboo was disheartened by their treatment.

Recently, the Flying Swan Sect ordered Green Bamboo Mountain to attack the Forest Spring Watch without offering any benefits, simply commanding them to do their bidding. Azure Bamboo and Zhujian felt frustrated and resentful.

In the eyes of the Flying Swan Sect, Green Bamboo Mountain was considered inferior to even livestock.

At this critical moment, Guang HuiDaoist secretly contacted Azure Bamboo. Guang HuiDaoist carefully analyzed the situation for Azure Bamboo.

The Earthfire Sect had gained support from the Fire Cloud Sect, a major sect of the Jiuqu League, allowing Daoist Master Roaring Blaze to form the core. Behind the Forest Spring Watch, there was also great power supporting them. The Northern Desert Qi Family had formed an alliance with two other sects.

The strength of this alliance far surpassed that of the Flying Swan Sect. With sufficient preparation and the combined efforts of the three sects, they could completely overthrow the Flying Swan Sect's rule over the Endless Sea of Sand.

If Green Bamboo Mountain didn't choose a side in time, they would only end up being buried alongside the Flying Swan Sect.

Azure Bamboo, who already harbored resentment towards the Flying Swan Sect, was persuaded by Guang HuiDaoist's words and actually began to consider joining forces with them.

Finally, Guang HuiDaoist presented Azure Bamboo with a spiritual treasure that he would never refuse. It was a spiritual pearl produced by a special spiritual clam that had been nurtured for hundreds of years in the Forest Spring Watch. When a Refining Qi cultivator assimilates this pearl during the Foundation Building stage, its effect is no less than that of the Lesser Foundation Building Pill from Twin Success Valley.

Such spiritual pearls were rare even within the Forest Spring Watch, and Guang HuiDaoist had spared no expense in obtaining this one.

With this spiritual pearl, Green Bamboo Mountain could cultivate new Foundation Building cultivators before Azure Bamboo and Zhujian died during meditation. Only by avoiding a gap in Foundation Building cultivators could Green Bamboo Mountain preserve the legacy of their sect.

Azure Bamboo, who was concerned about the sect's legacy, finally fully sided with Guang HuiDaoist.

With Azure Bamboo's help, Guang HuiDaoist easily convinced Zhujian, who was even more dissatisfied with the Flying Swan Sect.

After Azure Bamboo and Zhujian joined the Forest Spring Watch, they naturally told Guang HuiDaoist about the Flying Swan Sect's plans. Guang HuiDaoist also knew that the Flying Swan Sect would not directly attack the Forest Spring Watch. As long as they could deal with the Taiyi Sect and other sects, they could completely cut off the Flying Swan Sect's hands and feet, preventing them from continuing to threaten the Forest Spring Watch.

To minimize their own losses and eliminate future troubles by taking out all their enemies at once, Guang HuiDaoist did not directly launch an attack but chose to use a trick. Several forces planned to ambush the Forest Spring Watch in the Golden Blade Sect's mountain gate, but the Forest Spring Watch set up an ambush in return and defeated the enemy.

Guo Tanghai and Shi Weida were the first to arrive at the Golden Blade Sect's mountain gate and were directly surrounded by nine Foundation Building cultivators, including three in the middle stage. Guo Tanghai and Shi Weida had no chance to resist or escape and were killed on the spot. It was a pity that Guo Tanghai was also an outstanding talent with excellent abilities in all aspects, but he died silently here.

Next, everyone waited quietly for the Taiyi Sect and Qiaoshou Sect to take the bait, but unexpectedly, the two sects were late to arrive. Guang HuiDaoist personally sent out a transmission talisman to urge them, but received no response. The people who realized that something was wrong still held a glimmer of hope that the two sects would come obediently.

However, the transmission talisman from Meng Zhang just now exposed that they already knew about the trap in the Golden Blade Sect's mountain gate and were planning to turn the tables on the Forest Spring Watch. Guang HongDaoist finished reading Meng Zhang's transmission talisman and made his own guess.

"Perhaps there is some special secret connection between Meng Zhang and Guo Tanghai. They knew as soon as Guo Tanghai died and realized that something was wrong."

After hearing Guang HongDaoist's words, Guang QuanDaoist immediately shouted, "Senior Brother is right. The actual situation may be like this."

"Ah, it's a pity. We shouldn't have acted so hastily. We should have waited until they were all here before suddenly attacking and taking them all out."

Guang HongDaoist rolled his eyes. If they didn't take them out one by one and waited for all the enemies to arrive before attacking, even with the help of the mountain protection great formation, it would be difficult to completely annihilate the enemy. If the enemy was willing to sacrifice a few people, their side might lose some Foundation Building cultivators.

"Okay, let's not speculate anymore. Since the enemy has already seen through the trap here, let's not worry about how they found out. Since Meng Zhang wants to lure us out, let's use his plan against him."

"Meng Zhang, Yang Xueyi, Wen Qiansun from the Taiyi Sect, and Aunt Jin and Jin Qigu from the Qiaoshou Sect. There are only six Foundation Building cultivators on their side. We have nine Foundation Building cultivators on our side, so it's not difficult to win. The difficult part is to kill as many enemies as possible and save the trouble of chasing them down in the future."

As Guang HuiDaoist spoke, he took out a scroll and handed it to Guang RuiDaoist below. "You and Xu Yishan and Lin Shenpo go to the location designated by Meng Zhang. When they surround you, immediately activate this formation map. With the power of the three of you, rely on the formation to defend. They won't be able to break the formation and will be trapped by it. They won't be able to escape for a short time."

This scroll was actually a formation map, a treasure that had been passed down in the Forest Spring Watch for hundreds of years. Its power was amazing and mysterious. Once a Foundation Building cultivator was trapped, they would be helpless and could only be captured. The Forest Spring Watch had almost never used this formation map outside, and outsiders had no idea of its existence.

Guang HuiDaoist was prepared for the worst and did not expect to rely solely on this formation map to take down the enemy. As long as this formation map temporarily trapped the enemy, they could reinforce in time and defeat the enemy with more strength.

Although Guang RuiDaoist was not well-known outside, he was actually one of the two mid-Foundation Building cultivators in the Forest Spring Watch. His combat power was strong and second only to Sect Master Guang HuiDaoist. He stood up and bowed to Guang HuiDaoist, then obediently followed his orders and set off with Xu Yishan and Lin Shenpo.
