Dual Cultivation: Ying Yang is way to Chaos-Chapter 327: Lotus Bloom City
Lin Feng was sitting inside the pavilion on Mission Peak. All of his aunts, along with his senior sisters, were also present
This time there was one more person inside here. It was an elder of Mission Peak.
"So, they have taken Lotus Bloom city." Xuan Xue said nonchalantly.
The elder nodded. "Yes, Sect Master."
Xuan Xue looked at the others. "So what should we do, reclaim it or... let them get more cities."
Her thought process was simple—to let them feel they were winning and allow those who always wanted to betray Frozen Heart Sect to do so.
This way everything could be taken care of together, securing the strongest foothold in the world.
"I think we should show weakness here. They are righteous sects, so they won’t harm the common people of these cities anyway "Xuan Lian quipped.
Suddenly they all looked upward as they felt a strong spiritual sense. It belonged to a peak Tribulation Ascendance cultivator. "It’s Li Xiang. When will she understand that she needs permission to enter the sect."
Just as Xuan Xue finished speaking a woman appeared inside the pavilion. She was wearing red silky robes and the moment she came Lin Feng heard her little enraged voice. "What are you guys doing here sitting as if nothing happened? Those bastards already got Lotus Bloom City."
It had been a while since Lin Feng had seen her. He wondered how her disciple was doing right now. If he had to estimate the amount of time that had passed after the sect competition then it would be around five years.
Given the average amount of cultivation according to this world Wu Jian would be around Soul Sea realm unless Li Xiang helped him extensively.
Xuan Xue shook her head. "Calm down would you—"
"No, you guys would just endure this again like how you have been doing all the time. What happened to your hidden card? If you can’t handle it then just give up as sect master of Frozen Heart Sect." Li Xiang hadn’t come here to calm down.
Xuan Xue became speechless. True they had avoided deeper conflicts due to not having enough numbers on their side. They were the youngest of all these sects.
Even in Northern Region there are two sects which are far older than them. In terms of resources in Northern Region these two sects might have more than what they have accumulated till now.
So it wasn’t hard to guess how much a sect like Yin Yang and Crimson Palace have gathered. Not to mention these two behemoths have more control over their regions than Frozen Heart Sect has on Northern Region.
Not to mention other than her no one was in Tribulation Ascendance realm inside Frozen Heart Sect.
If they had gone into escalated conflicts before today then they would have been on the backfoot always.
"It was just not the time Li Xiang. Stop acting like a child for some time and sit down calmly for a few minutes. We are discussing about it. We aren’t backing down either."
When Li Xiang heard that she finally glanced at everyone in the hall. She frowned in confusion seeing Xie Ruyue and when her eyes fell on Lin Feng she stopped and her eyes widened as she sensed his cultivation realm. "How?"
Lin Feng sighed. It was an obvious reaction he would be getting a lot. He was currently at Late Stage of Void Tribulation Realm a feat almost impossible without all the primordial yin qi he got.
Others wouldn’t even reach the conclusion that he had dual cultivated. It was an almost impossible notion given the reason why Frozen Heart Sect existed.
"It’s been a while senior Li." Lin Feng couldn’t tell her about dual cultivation so he could only try to just avoid talking about it.
Li Xiang squinted her eyes. "You guys really are hiding some unimaginable secret it seems. Whatever, I hope you haven’t sacrificed your foundation for increasing your cultivation realms."
After saying that Li Xiang sat down on an empty seat near her. She was curious to ask about many things like this new girl sitting beside Mo Yan and the young girl she saw on spirit peak but for the time being she would listen to what they are discussing.
Xuan Lian calmly explained what they were thinking to Li Xiang and Li Xiang’s expression finally went from annoyed to relaxed. "I see... that does seem like a good plan to me... but you can’t just blatantly ignore their invasion. It will show too much weakness. Even those who are loyal to Frozen Heart Sect might waver. You have to do something to make them feel the pinch."
"That is a given. Not to mention we have already released a lot of beasts around the border so if they didn’t take teleportations or secured routes to move inward then they will definitely feel the pinch.
Let’s discuss what is the best response which should be enough yet it also shows that we can’t win against them completely. Should I go and just kill some of them?" Xuan Lian stated.
Wars are fought mainly by cultivators below Tribulation Ascendance Realm. It was an unspoken rule. Tribulation Ascendance realm cultivators are mainly for deterrence as even a single attack from them causes unimaginable destruction to the world.
They don’t step in before the war reaches their main region where their sect is located.
Xuan Lian was sure that those who are holding the city right now must have someone in Heaven Ascension realm.
Even before mastering Heavenly Dual Cultivation technique she was one of the strongest Heaven Ascension Cultivators in the world. Now her strength had increased further.
She was totally confident in entering Lotus Bloom City and killing anyone she wants even if there are more than one Heaven Ascension Cultivators there.
"Sounds good. Should I join in?" Zi Mei was eager to test her strength too. She had recently reached Peak of Heaven Ascension Realm.
"I don’t think you guys should go aunts." Lin Feng stood up. Those who attacked definitely aren’t elders of these sects and if you guys go then it wouldn’t look good.
They might defame you guys and that is something unacceptable for me. I will be back shortly." After saying that Lin Feng calmly left the pavilion.
They all understood that he was going to Lotus Bloom City and yet none of them tried to stop him.
Li Xiang on the other hand frowned. She didn’t know where he was going as unlike the others she didn’t reach the conclusion of Lin Feng going to Lotus Bloom City. "Where did he go?"
Zi Mei who was craving to have some good fight sulked. "Where else, Lotus Bloom city."
Li Xiang’s eyes widened. "Why didn’t any of you stop him?"
Xuan Xue stood up too. "Leave it. You will understand it soon. Come let’s go somewhere. It’s been a while since I have sparred."
Li Xiang frowned but nodded. "Alright, let’s go. I am also curious how much I have improved."
The others’ eyes lit up. Watching a battle of Peak Tribulation Ascendance would be quite insightful for them too.
....
Lin Feng arrived at the teleportation array inside the sect and decided to see if the teleportation array worked or not. The chances of that happening were low as they might have destroyed it.
But if they had enacted any traps they might be confident and wouldn’t have done it.
"Senior brother, the teleportation array isn’t working for Lotus Bloom city."
The attendant working here stated and Lin Feng nodded. "Alright, just teleport me to any nearby city."
....
After a few minutes of flying Lin Feng finally reached Lotus Bloom city. Looking at it from above everything looked calm but that in itself is a problem for a bustling city.
He went a little below and opened his spiritual sense to the extreme. Lotus Bloom city was big but his spiritual sense which had reached 10,000 meters was enough to see almost all of it.
Destruction of cities in wars of this scale still happens even when Tribulation Ascendance cultivators don’t take part in it. It is just up to the conscience of the perpetrators if they want to cause havoc.
Although none of them would do it openly so Lin Feng had a feeling they would come out to meet him.
As expected in response to his spiritual sense he felt multiple spiritual senses enveloping him of which four belonged to Heaven Ascension realm cultivators.
They all immediately flew out and faced him. Looking at their robes one was from Yin Yang sect and one was from Crimson Flame Palace. As for the other two it seemed they belonged to some factions which had aligned with these two sects.
So Yin Yang Harmony and Crimson Flame Palace had reached some kind of agreement. Well it’s better this way.
"Tsk, I thought that we might have a chance to lay eyes on one of the top fairies of Frozen Heart Sect but alas..." One of the Heaven Ascension Cultivators from an unknown faction shook his head.
