666: Chapter 210_5 666: Chapter 210_5 Great Lai Dynasty.
Star Moon Mansion.
The Great Lai Dynasty’s three major Immortal Sects comprised of the Eastern Sea Mirage Pavilion above the vast ocean, while the Void Breaking Sect and the Star Moon Mansion occupied the two highest mountains within the Great Lai Dynasty.
Among them, the Void Breaking Sect was situated on the highest peak, and the Star Moon Mansion on the second highest.
Although the three great Immortal Sects were closely matched in strength, there was still a discernible hierarchy among them.
The Eastern Sea Mirage Pavilion was the strongest, while the Star Moon Mansion was the weakest.
Every thousand years, the Great Lai Dynasty would select one Immortal Sect to govern the dynasty.
Within a span of ten thousand years, the Eastern Sea Mirage Pavilion had controlled the Immortal Sect for almost half the time, while the Star Moon Mansion had only governed twice.
Atop the Star Moon Mansion, on the highest point of Star Moon Peak, two men and a woman, the three acting heads of Star Moon Mansion and also its strongest three beings in the Golden Core Stage, were gathered together.
Besides these three, there was a man shrouded in a black robe, his face obscured by a black mask, rendering his features indiscernible.
Among the three from Star Moon Mansion, the sole woman turned to this mysterious figure in black and asked, “What now?
The Eastern Sea Mirage Pavilion already knows everything.
They’ve discovered that Elder Xue and Elder Yang are from our Star Moon Mansion and the Void Breaking Sect.
“They must also suspect, among our two great Immortal Sects, that one wishes to assassinate them or even suspects we have joined forces.
Now that the Minor Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth has fully arrived, all masters above the Golden Core Stage are sleeping.
The people from the Eastern Sea Mirage Pavilion have already messaged us, asking all three great Immortal Sects to join forces and head towards the Hundred Peaks Sect to eliminate them.
However, if there was not another force already attacking the Hundred Peaks Sect, they surely would not have made their move.
Once they do, they will grow even more suspicious of us, and with the people from the Eastern Sea Mirage Pavilion becoming more cautious, our plans will only become more difficult to accomplish.”
Elder Xue and Elder Yang were respectively from their Star Moon Mansion and the Void Breaking Sect, but in fact, both were from their Star Moon Mansion.
Elder Yang, although he had attained the Earth Immortal Realm and had joined the Void Breaking Sect when he was a child, was now no longer the Elder Yang of the past, after becoming an Earth Immortal.
It was none other than the mysterious person before them who had somehow used a special method to control Elder Yang.
Then, he revealed his plan.
Once successful, their Star Moon Mansion would become the only Immortal Sect in the Great Lai Dynasty!
The Great Lai Dynasty did not need three Immortal Sects, one would suffice!
The plans were all well and good, but who could have foreseen the appearance of the Sun and Moon Demon Sect?
These people from the Sun and Moon Demon Sect also knew which day the Minor Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth would arrive, and that within one day of its arrival, all masters above the Golden Core would fall into a deep sleep!
Even more, these people from the Sun and Moon Demon Sect knew that Cao Zhen, Ling Xi, Xiang Ziyu, and others were not in the Hundred Peaks Sect!
They wanted to join forces with the people from the three great Immortal Sects of the Great Lai Dynasty to attack the Hundred Peaks Sect, completely disrupting all their plans!
With his face masked, there was no telling what expression the man in black was making, yet through his exposed eyes, it was clear there was no change in his gaze.
He let out a strange, sardonic laugh and said, “Attacking the Hundred Peaks Sect was originally part of our plan, just that our initial plan was far greater and more complex.
This time, the Sun and Moon Demon Sect has actually helped us, accelerating the progress of our plan!
So, why should we not send people to attack the Hundred Peaks Sect?
And who told you that no other forces would attack the Hundred Peaks Sect before us?
Do not worry, the Red Refinery Demonic Sect has already set out.
They will attack the Hundred Peaks Sect before us.”
“The Red Refinery Demonic Sect?” One of the men, who looked handsome and remarkably young, immediately showed a look of surprise on his face and exclaimed, “Why would the Red Refinery Demonic Sect attack the Hundred Peaks Sect?
They shouldn’t know that Cao Zhen, Ling Xi, Xiang Ziyu, and the others are not there.
Have they gone mad to assault the Hundred Peaks Sect directly?
Wait, the Hundred Peaks Sect is still one of the ten Immortal Sects of the Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty.
Even without Cao Zhen and the others, the foundation of the Hundred Peaks Sect remains.
If the Red Refinery Demon Sect clashes head-on with the people from the Hundred Peaks Sect, they would suffer heavy losses even if they take it down.
Why would they do such a thing?”
“Why can’t they do it?
The Red Refinery Demonic Sect has a grudge against the State Preceptor, but they also harbor resentment against the ten Immortal Sects.
Originally, the Red Refinery Demonic Sect and the Sun and Moon Demon Sect approached the ten major Immortal Sects hoping for a united front against the Grand Preceptor.
This included the current ten major Immortal Sects.
They believed that with the combined strength of the various Immortal Sects, it was plausible to severely injure or even slay the Grand Preceptor.
Yet, all the Immortal Sects refused.
The reason for the refusal was that, as Sects of the Righteous Path, they would not join forces with those of the Demonic Path against the Grand Preceptor.
Because of the incident back then, the Red Refinery Demonic Sect and the Sun and Moon Demon Sect harbored a deep grudge against all the major Immortal Sects.
Thus, it’s not surprising that they would seek revenge against the ten Immortal Sects.
And the Hundred Peaks Sect…
currently, the National State Preceptor of the Town Immortal Dynasty resides there.
If they were to choose, they would naturally target the Hundred Peaks Sect first for revenge.
In short, the people from the Red Refinery Demonic Sect will certainly attack the Hundred Peaks Sect.
When the time comes, you and the people from the Sun and Moon Demon Sect will enter the Hundred Peaks Sect together.”
