Chapter 1897 Turning the Tables
However, as the four sect leaders gained deeper insights and the impact intensified, the load on the entire resonance field also suddenly surged!
Different laws and principles, stirred by the starlight, began to generate more intense rejection and collision.
The swiftness of the wind and the ferocity of the fire are inherently conflicting, but now they are simultaneously amplified to a higher level within the confined space.
Even with Mingchuan's spatial power acting as a buffer, it still triggered a small-scale energy turbulence, emitting a hissing sound!
Although the Chu Sect Master's powerful water force and the Mu Sect Master's crane purification did not directly conflict, the flow of spiritual energy began to stagnate and become disordered at the point where the two intersected!
"Humph……"
Mingchuan groaned, his face suddenly turning pale.
He felt as if his consciousness was being torn apart by several enormous forces at the same time, and the spiritual power that maintained the stable output of the Star Pivot Order was also being rapidly consumed in order to suppress the energy turbulence.
Sweat had gathered on his forehead and dripped down his temples.
"Don't panic! Stay calm!"
He gritted his teeth and muttered under his breath.
When the "Myriad Transformations Return to One" technique is used to its fullest extent, the vision of all rivers flowing into the sea of consciousness, and the ocean embracing all rivers, becomes clearer than ever before.
He no longer merely passively reconciled things, but began to actively guide and organize.
Using himself as the core and the power of space as the warp and weft, he forcibly wove invisible channels into the chaotic energy field.
The excessively violent fire-elemental sword intent was guided upwards, connecting with the blazing portion of the star projection. The sharp wind blade force was directed to the edge, where it rubbed against the spatial barrier, dissipating some of its sharpness.
The condensed water vapor was channeled downwards, connecting with the foundation of the array, and the ethereal life-purifying power spread evenly, nourishing the minds of everyone present.
This is an extremely demanding and dangerous process, like threading a needle in boiling oil.
But the results are also significant.
The chaotic energy flow was gradually brought into a relatively orderly track. The auras of the four sect leaders, which had been slightly fluctuating due to external interference, stabilized again, and their momentum to break through the bottleneck became even stronger!
Seeing this, Mingchuan felt much relieved.
I hope everyone can... get what they want!
He himself must not slack off. He not only has to break through to the Nascent Soul stage by himself, but also take four others with him. If he does not establish the necessary resources to protect himself in time, he will probably perish with everyone else!
Mingchuan took a deep breath, not daring to relax even a little bit.
Just as Mingchuan and the four sect leaders were working to break through to the next level, time in the outside world was also flowing at its own pace.
The Wanchuan Sect's protective formation always maintains the highest level of alert.
Faint starlight and spatial ripples enveloped the entire mountain range, isolating it from the outside world.
The sect disciples continued their routines of cultivation, patrolling, and mission execution, but observant individuals could sense an unusual tension and chill in the air.
The number of patrol and guard missions issued by the Deacon Hall has increased significantly, and the rewards for contribution points have also risen accordingly.
Access to some core areas has been restricted, and the disciples of the Battle Hall, personally led by Ji Zhou, patrol day and night with eyes as sharp as eagles.
Jin Man, dressed in a practical outfit with a black gauze robe over it that signified his status as the deputy sect leader, sat in front of the main control platform of the Heavenly Mirror.
I don't know when it started, but she has lost her original charming look, leaving only a cold and focused expression.
She hasn't been her true self for a very, very long time...
The huge mirror in front of them was divided into dozens of areas, displaying the situation in various parts of the spiritual realm.
Leng hope and the others stayed by her side, helping to process the intelligence jade slips that were pouring in like snowflakes, and conducting preliminary screening and classification.
Ah Xiong and Meng Dalang sat on either side, ready to carry out Jin Man's orders at any time.
"Reports from Ironwall City in the Western Regions: The abnormal spatial fluctuations in the Blackwind Ridge area have continued for seven days without weakening, but no new signs of invasion have been detected. The Wind Feather Guards of the Qingfeng Feather Gate and the Hidden Edge Squad of the Battle Hall are taking turns patrolling, and there have been no conflicts so far."
"Traces of a small group of unidentified cultivators have been discovered on the edge of the Northern Ice Plains. They are suspected to be rogue cultivators from the Holy Domain, and their purpose is unknown. Xuantian Sect has strengthened the defenses of the Frozen Valley."
"In the direction of the Fallen Star Wasteland in the Eastern Region, the concentration of evil energy is showing a slight upward trend. The formation of the Heaven-Mending Holy Sect has expanded its coverage area. No large-scale activities of the Silent Zen Temple have been detected yet."
……
Jinman's fingers tapped unconsciously on the edge of the jade platform, her gaze quickly sweeping across the mirror. As she heard these reports, her heart sank lower and lower.
Compared to the various unexpected situations that occurred before, things are now much calmer.
But the quieter it was, the more unsettling it felt...
"Order Ironwall City to remain vigilant and continue monitoring, paying particular attention to any anomalies in the underground veins. Notify Xuantian Sect to focus on monitoring that group of unidentified cultivators for now, and not to alert them unless there is any obvious hostile behavior. As for Fallen Star Wasteland... instruct the Heaven-Mending Holy Sect to be on high alert and ready to activate the purification plan at any time."
"Yes!" A disciple immediately recorded the order and transmitted it out.
Ah Xiong scratched his head, somewhat irritated: "Sister Jinman, are we just going to wait like this? Ming and the others are working hard inside, while these flies are buzzing around outside, and who knows what kind of bad scheme Yueyao is plotting... I'm not at ease."
Meng Dalang nodded in agreement: "Yes, it feels like there's unease all around, but we can't pinpoint a clear enemy to target."
Jin Man glanced at them before leaning lazily to the side: "Don't rush. Ming Chuan left the outside to me, not so we could just sit around worrying. Passive defense is always the worst strategy."
She pointed to an area on the mirror that showed the vast buffer zone between the Holy Realm and the Spirit Realm:
"Yueyao suffered a setback at Black Wind Ridge last time and was even frightened away by the power of the Star Pivot Token. Given her personality, she will never let it go easily. But she doesn't dare to infiltrate again herself; the risk is too great."
I suspect she'll be more inclined to use her spies within the Spirit Realm to create chaos, distract us, and simultaneously accelerate the Silent Zen Temple's actions in the Chaotic Sky Sea.
“Then we…” Leng hope looked at Jin Man.
"What we need to do is turn the tables and take the lead."
Jin Man's eyes flashed with a sharp light: "A Xiong, you take a team of elites and work with Shi Guangyang to make an example of them based on the suspicious list that was previously screened."
"We can make bigger moves and be more assertive. We don't need to have solid evidence, but we need to let them know that we are watching them all the time and that no unusual activity can escape our notice."
"Stir up the water and make the fish hiding underneath jump out!"
"Yes, ma'am! I'm good at this!" Ah Xiong perked up and rubbed his hands together, eager to get started.
He rubbed his hands together, and his previous tired and listless appearance vanished in an instant.
Jin Man then turned to Meng Dalang: "Dalang, spread some news through external channels. Say that the Ming Sect Master of Wanchuan Sect and the four sect masters are in seclusion, comprehending a combined divine power obtained from an ancient relic, and will soon succeed."
"At that time, the Spirit Realm Alliance will have made a great breakthrough in strength, enough to deal with any external threat."
"What?!" Meng Dalang's heart skipped a beat: "This... doesn't this expose crucial information about Doflamingo and the others' seclusion?"
