"All right."
Old Man Shen nodded.
He no longer intervened.
Because only at the higher levels can one understand the importance of choosing a consolidating energy technique.
The Sun and Moon can be cultivated quickly because they both have reference objects.
But after quick success, there’s no road ahead.
However, the Star Formation is endless.
But the problem is that few have the aptitude to support cultivating the Star Formation.
So, when choosing, no matter how ambitious, one must bow to reality—among the billions of stars in the universe, who can sweep them down with one spear?
In this life, Fang Che holds the belief of achieving greatness or dying trying, never considering where his prospects might lead, as long as everything points to the infinite.
Without hesitation, it was the Star Formation.
Sword, spear, halberd, all are Star Formations.
Star Soul Sword Formation, Star Soul Spear Formation, Star Soul Halberd Formation.
Old Man Shen could only sigh helplessly.
"They’re all incomplete scriptures."
"It seems you wanted to help you choose only to witness that you’ve chosen incomplete ones."
Old Man Shen said dejectedly, "Throughout history, although Star Formation techniques exist, no one has truly cultivated them to their peak. No one knows what it’s like in the later stages."
"People don’t even know if the early stages are correct. Do you still want to persist?"
"Persist!"
Fang Che was very determined.
Because he knew that if he could forge this path with the Star Formation technique, the future would be infinitely vast!
At least in this world, he knew there were two people who surely were cultivating the Star Formation technique.
At least two people!
One is the Sword of Love Breaking, Snow and Flute, and the other is Shattering Dream Spear Duan Xiyang!
This he had overheard in his previous life by accident.
So he resolutely chose the Star Formation.
And chose the Star Soul Formation within the Star Formation.
"All right!"
Old Man Shen said, "I hope you can truly forge this starry path."
Then he walked out with Fang Che, saying lightly, "I didn’t try hard to stop you because you have considered it all deeply. I have already lost the Martial Arts, but this kind of understanding has increased sowhat; I feel in the unseen that the Star Formation can go far."
"But at a certain point, you’ll have to rely on yourself, as there are no footprints of predecessors for you to follow."
"This is the most fatal."
"I understand."
"So, whether your choice is right or wrong can only be validated with your future life. No one else knows."
"Yes."
"Master Shen, may I ask, how many people from Baiyun Martial Academy have chosen the Star Formation over the years of choosing consolidating energy techniques? What were their final outcos? How far did they get?"
"Those choosing the Star Formation are rare, generally only one or two percent of those who co to select a consolidating energy technique; and many of these, finding no way forward, eventually turn to logistics, administrative positions, or the staff departnt. Many have perished, many disappeared, and many went back to develop their Shi Family."
"None have stood out. In the last twenty or thirty years, if a thousand people ca to choose a consolidating energy technique, only one or two would pick the Star Formation."
"And they all did it with a mindset of trying."
Old Man Shen sighed and said, "Do you understand?"
"I understand."
Fang Che felt no disturbance in his heart.
"You cannot take this Jade Scroll out, just absorb it on the first floor."
Old Man Shen said, "The rare scriptures are on the upper floors, the first floor is not a problem."
"Yes."
Fang Che sat cross-legged, focused his spirit, activated the Bingche Spirit Platform, and Infinite Scripture simultaneously.
His heart was like ice and snow, his body like an empty valley, his spirit road beyond the sky, his intention guarded the Dantian.
He placed a Jade Scroll against his forehead.
The cultivation technique instantly surrounded him, suddenly connecting, feeling a vast amount of knowledge rushing in abruptly.
For a mont, his vision was dizzy, as if a galaxy suddenly appeared before him, stretching endlessly into the distance...
...
Just as Fang Che was choosing the consolidating energy technique.
A fierce dispute erupted within the Yixin Sect.
Ren Zhongyuan never expected that the sub-branch in Baiyun State would be taken out.
And it was after executing an order from the Yin Shen Palace that it was dismantled.
This was clearly removed by the Yin Shen Palace.
Although Baiyun State had few experts in residence, it was a crucial part of Ren Zhongyuan’s power puzzle, and everyone there had clear identities on the surface, ensuring no problems.
Over so many years, it had ford a fixed circle, so Ren Zhongyuan never changed its structure.
Whether for extracting money, resources, Heavenly Treasures, or task completion, due to its high secrecy, the contribution of the Baiyun State sub-branch had always been at the forefront of all branches in the Yixin Sect.
Now, suddenly being taken out.
It equated to the loss of a major economic source. Various kinds of economics.
Ren Zhongyuan was imdiately anxious.
After convening his think tank for discussions and communicating with higher-ups, Ren Zhongyuan imdiately sought an audience with the Yin Shen Palace.
"Sect Leader! Our Baiyun State sub-branch was dismantled by the Guardian."
Ren Zhongyuan went straight to the core.
The Yin Shen Palace sat on the throne, casually tending to his fingernails, not even lifting his eyelid, teaching, "Vice Sect Hierarch Ren, it’s important to understand the target, it was a Guardian, not a Guardian."
Ren Zhongyuan gritted his teeth and said, "Yes, it was taken out by a Guardian, but does the Sect Leader know about this?"
The Yin Shen Palace finished his nails, looked at his fingers for a mont, and said lightly, "Whether I’m aware... haha, Vice Sect Hierarch Ren, do you think anything in this world could evade the knowledge of this Sect Leader?"
Ren Zhongyuan said directly, "Sect Leader, I have sothing stuck in my throat that I must say."
The Yin Shen Palace said lightly, "Vice Sect Hierarch, speak freely, when have you beco so shy?"
A trace of sorrow appeared on Ren Zhongyuan’s face, "Sect Leader, during this ti, there have been too many irregularities in our sect. I originally thought it was a temporary fluctuation, so I didn’t mind; but recently, it seems as if the Sect Leader has been... seems to be..."
"Seems to be what?"
The Yin Shen Palace tilted his head slightly, his gaze like two sharp arrows shooting at Ren Zhongyuan’s face.
"Seems to be... sowhat different to than before."
Ren Zhongyuan gritted his teeth and finally spoke, "I don’t understand why this is? I don’t know what I’ve done wrong, please enlighten the Sect Leader, if I have really erred, then let resolve it here with a swift cut!"
He stood upright, his face full of sorrow, feeling deeply wronged.
Below, the high-ranking mbers of the Yixin Sect stood solemnly.
Watching the confrontation between the Sect Leader and Vice Sect Hierarch.
The Yin Shen Palace said nonchalantly, "Vice Sect Hierarch Ren, you’ve overthought this. From beginning to end, the Vice Sect Hierarch’s hard work and accomplishnts have made you my most reliable assistant in the Yin Shen Palace."
He slightly raised his head, saying, "Vice Sect Hierarch Ren, might you have overthought it?"
Ren Zhongyuan took a deep breath and said, "But the Sect Leader’s actions this ti have left Zhongyuan puzzled."
"Oh?"
The Yin Shen Palace said, "In what way?"
Ren Zhongyuan found himself in a dilemma.
Originally, their group’s discussion was that since the Yin Shen Palace had already acted, it certainly wouldn’t continue to hide things, so it was better to lay cards on the table and openly confront.
Everyone should have an open and honest discussion.
Then he could demonstrate weakness to dispel misunderstandings and pledge loyalty, making retreat an advance, to dispel the Yin Shen Palace’s suspicions.
But he hadn’t expected the Yin Shen Palace not to take the bait at all.
This created an awkward situation.
He had no choice but to continue: "Sect Leader, just handing over the Baiyun State sub-branch like that, I find it inappropriate."
The Yin Shen Palace let out a sinister laugh, "Handing it over?"
His voice grew ever more indifferent, "Vice Sect Hierarch, what do you an by this?"
Ren Zhongyuan respectfully said, "Baiyun State had been under my control for a hundred years, it’s our staunch direct lineage. But now, receiving the Sect Leader’s secret order, it was lost by Baiyun Lake..."
The Yin Shen Palace leaned back, sitting on the throne, looking down with a condescending gaze, "I understand, Sect Leader Ren’s aning is that I have beco an insider... sold out the Baiyun State sub-branch, is that it?"
"I would never dare suggest that!"
Ren Zhongyuan broke out in cold sweat, realizing that although what he said was correct, it was stated rather hastily.
The Yin Shen Palace decisively rebuked, "Vice Sect Hierarch Ren! I have always considered you a trusted confidant, and now, you dare suspect of conniving with a Guardian to sell out my own people? Hmm?"
He suddenly stood up, saying coldly, "Then let ask you, if I have truly sold you all to the Guardian, wouldn’t that be a bigger credit than one Baiyun State sub-branch? Why haven’t I sold you out?"
Ren Zhongyuan said nervously, "I wouldn’t dare."
"You wouldn’t dare? I think you dare a lot!"
The Yin Shen Palace’s cold gaze swept over everyone present, saying lightly, "You’ve gathered so many people to co here, are you here to hold accountable?"
"I wouldn’t dare!"
Sweat like beans appeared on Ren Zhongyuan’s forehead.
Ren Zhongyuan spoke incorrectly right from the start.
Or he misjudged the reaction of the Yin Shen Palace.
Everyone thought that since the Yin Shen Palace had already acted, based on this mindset, they were here to go all out and turn the situation around.
Because the situation still wasn’t mature, a delay was necessary.
But what they hadn’t expected was that even though they had co with great montum, the Yin Shen Palace showed such indifference.
Easily executing a counter with softness against hardness, and seizing Ren Zhongyuan’s loophole, directly cornering him.
Mu Lin Yuan, wearing a Sacrificial Robe, masked, stood in the shadows.
He couldn’t help but sigh inwardly.
Although Ren Zhongyuan is the Vice Sect Hierarch, his cunning and strategy are far inferior to the Yin Shen Palace.
The Yin Shen Palace has ruled the Yixin Sect for many years, his scheming and strategy reaching Divine Transformation.
Truly, those following Ren Zhongyuan’s rebellion, what were they trying to achieve?
But what he couldn’t understand was why, having forced them into the open, the Yin Shen Palace didn’t comnce with purging?
In Mu Lin Yuan’s view, with today’s lineup, isn’t it already quite obvious?
However, the Yin Shen Palace had its own considerations.
As the sect master, his thoughts were far more complex than those of Mu Lin Yuan.
This visit from Ren Zhongyuan was within his expectations, but the decisiveness of it left the Yin Shen Palace puzzled.
It was only one Baiyun State sub-branch that was taken out.
Why such a big reaction?
