After Fang Yun finished refining ten batches of Five Qi Chao Ling Pills, Bai Heyan settled the Sect Contribution Points with him.
"Five Middle Grade, forty-seven Lower Grade. That’s a total of twenty-nine thousand, five hundred Contribution Points."
Fang Yun took out his token. After Bai Heyan perford a few operations, the amount of Sect Contribution Points in the token increased once again.
"See? I told you. You have so many Contribution Points now, you’ll never be able to spend them all."
While adding the points for Fang Yun, Bai Heyan also glanced at Fang Yun’s current balance of Sect Contribution Points.
With this latest addition, Fang Yun’s Contribution Points had broken the six-figure mark.
Over one hundred thousand Sect Contribution Points was equivalent to over one hundred thousand Lower Grade Spirit Stones. In terms of Contribution Points alone, Fang Yun was now definitely among the wealthiest of the Elders.
Bai Heyan looked at his own Contribution Points and found he had quite a bit less than Fang Yun.
And this was despite the fact that he rarely spent his points and had been an Elder for over a century, whereas Fang Yun had only held the position for a little over twenty years.
After bidding farewell to Bai Heyan, Fang Yun was about to return to his cave residence when a glimr of spiritual light suddenly floated before him.
It was a ssage from Battle Peak.
After receiving the ssage, Fang Yun imdiately hurried to Battle Peak.
The ssage instructed him to attend a eting of the Battle Peak Elders.
This would be the second ti he had attended such a eting.
The last ti was when the Demons launched a full-scale assault on the Foundation Establishnt Influences, during which he had gone to support the Xiao Family.
He arrived at the Battle Peak conference hall quickly.
Unlike last ti, he was not the last to arrive; several other Battle Peak Elders had yet to appear.
Just as before, he sat down next to Bai Qinying.
After sitting down, Fang Yun imdiately sent a ntal transmission to Bai Qinying beside him. "Have the Demons made another big move?"
"It seems so. We’ll have to wait for Elder Miao to explain the specifics."
For the mont, Bai Qinying hadn’t received any news from her master, Feng Tianrui, either.
Bai Qinying knew that since Fang Yun had also been summoned to a Battle Peak eting, it had to be sothing of great importance.
Since he couldn’t get any concrete details from Bai Qinying, Fang Yun didn’t press further and simply waited quietly for the remaining Battle Peak Elders to arrive.
Once all the expected Elders had arrived, Miao Qinghong spoke, delivering a piece of major news.
"The Demon Spirit Sect is no longer hiding its support for the Celestial Demon Sect."
As soon as this was announced, most of the Battle Peak Elders showed expressions of surprise.
This was clearly terrible news. In their experience, the Demon Spirit Sect usually avoided open conflict with them.
"What benefits could the Celestial Demon Sect have possibly offered the Demon Spirit Sect to make them stop hiding?"
"We could turn a blind eye to the Demon Spirit Sect’s covert support for the Celestial Demon Sect. But if they’re providing aid openly, we can’t treat them the sa way we used to."
"I thought the Demon Spirit Sect always preferred to watch from the sidelines. Why the change?"
In the past, the Demon Spirit Sect’s covert support clearly indicated they didn’t want to provoke a major conflict with the Celestial Cloud Sect.
The Celestial Cloud Sect, in turn, lacked the resources to deal with two major Core Formation Demon factions at once, so they did their best to avoid confronting the Demon Spirit Sect whenever possible.
Over the past few centuries, the Demon Spirit Sect had suffered very few losses at the hands of the Celestial Cloud Sect.
"Perhaps the Celestial Demon Sect not only gave them benefits but also made them a lot of promises, like how to divide our sect’s territory afterward."
"So what do we do now?"
"What else can we do? We defend against their attacks as best we can."
The Battle Peak Elders began to chi in one after another.
Throughout this, Fang Yun remained silent, listening and thinking.
’The Demon Spirit Sect coming out into the open will undoubtedly make the sect’s external situation even worse.’
’With more Demons appearing in the Celestial Cloud Sect’s territory, the number of clashes and battles will increase.’
’For , the only upside to this situation is that I’ll be able to accumulate Talent Points faster.’
’More conflicts an more reinforcent missions.’
Fang Yun hoped he would be given priority for these kinds of reinforcent missions. That way, he could acquire Combat Talent Points while also alleviating more of the pressure on the other Sect Elders.
With his current strength, he had nothing to fear as long as he didn’t run into a Core Formation Stage Demon.
Currently, among the Celestial Demon Sect and the Demon Spirit Sect, the sect had highlighted three Foundation Establishnt Demons to be wary of: two from the Celestial Demon Sect and one from the Demon Spirit Sect. All of them were at the Peak of Foundation Establishnt.
"I say we need to make the Demons of the Demon Spirit Sect feel so pain! That’ll teach them that our Celestial Cloud Sect is not to be trifled with. From now on, we should use a small portion of our strength to handle the Celestial Demon Sect and focus the majority of our power on the Demon Spirit Sect."
"Our conflict with the Demon Spirit Sect is nowhere near as deep as our conflict with the Celestial Demon Sect. Elder Zhou, I find your idea very dangerous. Think about it. If we focus most of our power on the Demon Spirit Sect, won’t that just deepen the feud? Perhaps their open support for the Celestial Demon Sect will end in a few years. If we anger them like this, our situation will beco even more perilous in the future."
"Elder Jin, are you suggesting we just let the Demon Spirit Sect do as they please? I’m telling you, if you treat them like that, they’ll just think our Celestial Cloud Sect is an easy target and beco even more audacious in the future!"
"I never said we should let the Demon Spirit Sect run wild. I just don’t think it’s necessary to specifically devote a large amount of our forces to dealing with them."
As the discussion wore on, two main viewpoints gradually erged.
So Elders felt they should deal the Demon Spirit Sect a heavy, head-on blow.
The other faction of Elders believed it was better to keep focusing the majority of their strength on the Celestial Demon Sect, and simply manage the threat from the Demon Spirit Sect as it ca.
