Chapter 107: Chapter 106: The Victor

Above Celestial Profound City, the gathered spiritual qi cloud is slowly dissipating.

“Has someone succeeded in forming the Core!?”

Watching the dispersal of the Core Formation phenomenon, Lin Chang’an’s face was filled with gravity; this completely touched the blind spot of his knowledge.

Not only him, but every loose cultivator within the entire Celestial Profound City also held the same question.

“Lu the Tortoise, Profound Sound Pavilion, you collude with the Demon Cult, a disgraceful alliance!”

The angry roar of a Core Formation cultivator from Li Huo Palace came from outside Celestial Profound City, while the loose cultivators inside were still bewildered.

This chaos of the Core Formation phenomenon continued until evening, leaving all loose cultivators inside the city utterly confused.

“Mr. Lin, something feels a bit off here.”

While the snow continued to drift, Chen Qing’s face showed a tinge of amazement.

Beside him, Lin Chang’an nodded gravely, “Yes, indeed something feels off. Looking at this, it seems Master Lu and the Profound Sound Pavilion have allied.”

Lin Chang’an’s words left Chen Qing beside him in disbelief.

“This… even major powers can be so… chaotic?”

Chen Qing found it hard to say, but deep in Lin Chang’an’s heart, he quietly understood that major powers playing rascals is what seems just.

However, the situation in the Yue Kingdom is about to undergo some new changes.

Master Lu and the Profound Sound Pavilion allying, Li Huo Palace and Divine Sword Sect forming an alliance, what does this mean?

The weak huddle together, the strong join forces.

A great upheaval occurred in Celestial Profound City; cultivators of Li Huo Palace fled in panic, even True Treasure Tower was overtaken.

Yet, this area of the major sects has little to do with these loose cultivators.

“Celestial Profound City and Profound Sound Pavilion, colluding with the demon thugs!”

“Li Huo Palace and Divine Sword Sect are remnants of the Demon Dao!”

Both sides accused each other, calling the other remnants of the Demon Dao.

Half a day later, with a boom! A formidable aura of a Core Formation cultivator emanated from Profound Sound Peak.

Eventually, this turmoil concluded as the aura of a new Core Formation cultivator was felt coming from Profound Sound Pavilion’s mountains.

…

Until the next day.

The snow and frost gave Celestial Profound City a silver sheen, yet the entire situation inside had undergone earth-shattering changes.

Or rather, the entire situation of the Yue Kingdom had undergone earth-shattering transformations.

“My heavens, who would have thought that Fairy Ni Chang was not an Earth Spirit Root but a Celestial Spirit Root! Profound Sound Pavilion hid this so deeply, the first in our Yue Kingdom in hundreds of years.”

“What do you know? Wasn’t it Li Huo Palace and Divine Sword Sect, remnants of the Demon Dao, trying to join forces to dominate Yue Kingdom, forcing the Profound Sound Pavilion to ally with Master Lu?”

At this time, the rumors of yesterday’s chaos were spreading in every corner of the streets.

This made Lin Chang’an, who was in the Gathering Immortals Tower, secretly shake his head.

“Li Huo Palace’s essence was not to destroy but to drive Master Lu and Profound Sound Pavilion out, yet unaware that Master Lu was also eyeing a piece of land in Yue Kingdom.”

After Lin Chang’an pondered carefully, he reached a conclusion.

This Master Lu was the real winner behind the scenes.

Yue Kingdom was initially a matter for the Three Major Sects, yet after forcefully intervening, they had indeed established their footing.

“Forcing Li Huo Palace out of Celestial Profound City, Profound Sound Pavilion facing the covetous eyes of two major sects, even with a newly cultivated Celestial Spirit Root cultivator, they had to eagerly ally with Master Lu.”

“Even Master Lu’s disciple wanting to form the Core, the Profound Sound Pavilion is eager for a strong ally.”

After pondering over it, Li Huo Palace lost its foothold in Celestial Profound City’s arrangements, and Divine Sword Sect gained nothing.

Profound Sound Pavilion became the weakest, yet had to acknowledge Master Lu as the owner of Celestial Profound City.

Only Master Lu, this foreign loose cultivator not only established his footing but also gained an ally in Profound Sound Pavilion.

Thinking of this, Lin Chang’an couldn’t help but gasp in shock.

“This truly is inviting the god easily, but sending it is hard, in this circle, Master Lu not only secured his position as the fourth great power in Yue Kingdom, Celestial Profound City, but even Profound Sound Pavilion might withdraw, as a gesture of alliance.”

Truly worthy of being the number one loose cultivator, this tremendous reputation is not just built on strength alone.

“Mr. Lin, great news!”

Stepping off the flying sword, Chen Qing came over with a face aglow, took a sip of spirit tea, and then excitedly announced.

“Li Huo Palace has been driven out of the influence range of Celestial Profound City, Profound Sound Pavilion not only acknowledges Master Lu’s dominance over Celestial Profound City but also officially recognizes Celestial Profound City as the Independent Cultivator City of Yue Kingdom.

Even Profound Sound Pavilion voluntarily withdrew from Celestial Profound City, forming an eternal alliance with Master Lu, jointly opposing the demon remnants, Li Huo Palace and Divine Sword Sect…”

Goodness, after hearing this information, Lin Chang’an was left speechless.

Now Li Huo Palace and Divine Sword Sect are labeled as demon cult remnants.

“It truly is a piece of great news.”

Lin Chang’an nodded and sighed.

Although this was probably orchestrated by Master Lu behind the scenes, a more stable Celestial Profound City means better prospects for these loose cultivators.

“Brother Lin, don’t think I’m speaking nonsense; these are true, many female disciples of Li Huo Palace have defected, claiming Yellow Master of Li Huo Palace used sect female disciples as furnaces to break through his cultivation…”

With Chen Qing’s justified words, as of now in Celestial Profound City, several defected female cultivators have directly labeled Li Huo Palace as Demon Dao.

“Using one’s own sect disciples as furnaces, what kind of behavior is this? Not even the Demon Dao is like this!”

Chen Qing said with indignation, and the Divine Sword Sect, allied with Li Huo Palace, was naturally not free from guilt.

“Not only that, there are rumors that Li Huo Palace secretly used the Demon Dao’s Foundation Stealing Technique, causing harm to our loose cultivators to expand the sect over the years…”

Good Lord!

Hearing these reports, Lin Chang’an’s eyelid twitched, though he believed at most only thirty percent.

“Brother Lin, do you know? We loose cultivators have a home! Celestial Profound City will truly be the Independent Cultivator City from now on, with the two sect influences retreating, Master Lu has already issued a decree.

He widely invites all loose cultivators, and the spirit ore and spirit veins that the two major sects used to occupy will now serve as family territories for loose cultivator clans.”

“What boldness.”

Though he had anticipated it, Lin Chang’an couldn’t help but admire this, Master Lu is truly a master of making something out of nothing.

In a mere eight years, he secured a vast foundation in Yue Kingdom.

He even suspected that from the moment Master Lu returned to Yue Kingdom, he was calculating to build a vast foundation.

“If he indeed captures all spiritual ores and veins within a thousand miles of Celestial Profound City, this would indeed be remarkable.”

With Celestial Profound City founded on spirit veins discovered in the Secret Realm, such a principal vein will undoubtedly reveal more abundant resource mines.

Such an enterprise is enough to rival the foundation of a sect.

Previously, these enterprises were occupied by Li Huo Palace and Profound Sound Pavilion and were not entirely exploited, given that Master Lu was merely an invited mediator.

Who would have thought, he truly staged a play of making something out of thin air.

Previously, Li Huo Palace and Profound Sound Pavilion, responsible for resource development, ended up preparing bridal clothes for Master Lu.

This is why Lin Chang’an couldn’t withhold his admiration.

“Mr. Lin, Master Lu is handing out rewards and promotions based on merit, let’s go have a look.”

“Alright.”

Lin Chang’an nodded, now that the upheaval had settled, Celestial Profound City indeed stepped on the right track, though under the governance of Master Lu instead of the previous tripartite rule.
