Zheng Yi merely listened quietly. The voice of the other party seemed light, yet perhaps due to a long time in a high position, there was always an air of looking down from above when it fell into the ears of others.

Of course, Zheng Yi also understood that with the other party’s status and cultivation, this was all too normal.

Moreover, he realized that the reversal in the latter half of the sentence was the most crucial part.

"Of course, the primary importance in this area is to maintain stability!"

Golden Core Zhenren Yin Shili did not continue speaking. With just a simple sentence, it carried a significant meaning.

It meant that the whole matter ends here.

The Taiyin Profound Celestial Sect would not pursue Zheng Yi’s killing of five Purple Mansion Stage cultivators, but neither did they wish for the situation to escalate further.

Yin Shili’s presence here already signaled an attitude, undoubtedly to prevent Zheng Yi from dispatching troops to invade and swallow the territory of the Golden Palace Sect.

Should he take advantage of this to also deal with the Star-devouring Demon City and the Barbaric Beast Sect, then, the Daluo Alliance would occupy a broader region and become the undisputed sovereign of the surrounding areas.

Clearly, this did not align with the interests of the Taiyin Profound Celestial Sect. Under the three mountain ranges they governed, they could not allow any force to grow so large and strong that it became uncontrollable; their goal was to maintain balance.

This was the only way to strengthen the Taiyin Profound Celestial Sect’s control, better managing the subordinate major sects and preventing any more powerful sects from existing and threatening their ruling position.

A seemingly simple sentence stirred up a massive wave in Zheng Yi’s mind, leaving him unable to calm for a long time.

But the situation was more powerful than him, and Zheng Yi had no ability to defy the decision of the Taiyin Profound Celestial Sect; he could only silently accept it.

All he could do was maximize the benefits, obtaining more good things to strengthen himself and the Daluo Alliance, amassing power.

However, Zheng Yi also put forward his own demands.

"The decision of the Upper Sect is of course agreed to by the Daluo Alliance, but the attack by the Golden Palace Sect on the Daluo Alliance caused a great loss, and some compensation must be made."

Since he didn’t have the ability to resist, he could only strive for greater benefits from other aspects to strengthen himself.

Seemingly satisfied with Zheng Yi’s response, the Golden Core Zhenren Yin Shili assertively stated, "You may present your request, and I will try to accommodate it!"

Evidently, this was meant as compensation for Zheng Yi and the Daluo Alliance. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

Zheng Yi did not hold back, directly demanding that the headquarters of the Golden Palace Sect be vacated and handed over to the Daluo Alliance to serve as the new sect residence.

This request was not to show off the Daluo Alliance’s strength, nor to humiliate the Golden Palace Sect, but because after breaking through to the Purple Mansion Stage, he needed a Tier Three Spirit Vein for regular cultivation.

As for the Daluo Alliance, it was still using the Second-level Spiritual Vein of the Soul Catching Sect as its headquarters, which could not meet his cultivation needs at all.

Moreover, as the number of High-Tier Cultivators in the Daluo Alliance continued to increase, the total amount of Spirit Veins required also increased, and the original vein strength could no longer satisfy the alliance’s needs.

Just in time to seize this opportunity, directly occupying the headquarters of the Golden Palace Sect to alleviate the Daluo Alliance’s demand for Spirit Veins.

Because within the Golden Palace Sect, there were six second-level spiritual veins, and one tier three high-grade spiritual vein, which could perfectly meet the cultivation needs of the increasing high-tier cultivators in the Daluo Alliance.

While preparing to attack the headquarters of the Golden Palace Sect and root out its foundation, Zheng Yi had already sent people to investigate all the information.

Plan carefully before acting, to act confidently with a mind at ease.

Now, since the Taiyin Profound Celestial Sect wanted to prevent the Daluo Alliance’s retaliatory actions, they naturally had to make some concessions. Just by using this opportunity, openly, and with a justified reason, to smoothly occupy the headquarters of the Golden Palace Sect.

This was undoubtedly a great opportunity for both Zheng Yi and the Daluo Alliance.

"Do as you say!"

The Golden Core Zhenren Yin Shili didn’t overthink, simply asked a few questions, and then agreed.

Obviously, in the eyes of the Golden Core Zhenren Yin Shili, a mere Purple Mansion Sect’s headquarters was utterly insignificant.

With just a few simple words, the fate of two major sects was decided. Such a powerful display finally let Zheng Yi understand the attitude of those standing at the pinnacle of the Cultivation Realm towards the multitude of beings and the weaker cultivation forces.

This also made him more deeply realize the harshness of the Cultivation Realm and developed a stronger aspiration for the Golden Core level.

Many forces below fight life and death for certain things.

Perhaps in the eyes of those esteemed Golden Core Zhenren, they’re utterly trivial, decided in a sentence.

...

After resolving the dispute between the two major sects, Zheng Yi also abandoned the plan to attack the Golden Palace Sect, and through this, gained the occupation rights of the Golden Palace Sect’s headquarters.

Soon, the Taiyin Profound Celestial Sect’s Golden Core Zhenren Yin Shili finally revealed the true purpose of his visit.

Six months later, the Dao Destruction Conference would commence; Zheng Yi had already qualified to participate. This time, I came to inform you to attend!"

This time, the Golden Core Zhenren Yin Shili changed from his previous casual attitude, his words becoming solemn.

The area where Zheng Yi resided was known as the chaotic region, which directly adjoined the territory controlled by the Righteous Sect, becoming the forefront of the confrontation between the Righteous and Demonic Dao.

In the past, Zheng Yi escaped from Profound Void City through this chaotic area and joined the Soul Catching Sect.

However, as a newly risen Zheng Yi, who wasn’t originally a native cultivator of the Demon Realm, coming from the Righteous Dao, he was once the lowest level in the cultivator ranks, completely unaware of the so-called Dao Destruction Conference.
