Upon hearing this, every face in the room turned a shade grimmer.
Elder Chen Fan then asked, “Given the current situation, how should our Haoran Sect handle this?
Should we inform the Sect Master and the others?”
Elder Chi Yan responded,
“Before summoning you all here, we had already informed the Sect Master and the others about the matter.
According to their decision, our Haoran Sect will not concede even a fraction of the large Heavenly Crystal mine.
You all need to prepare.
Should any unexpected situations arise, you may be called upon to participate in a conflict.”
“Uh? Elder Chi Yan, do you mean to say our Haoran Sect is preparing for war with the Eternal Sword Sect and the Five Elements Heavenly Sect?”
“The Eternal Sword Sect, yes, but the Five Elements Heavenly Sect likely won’t join in the short term,”
Elder Chi Yan continued. “So far, the Eternal Sword Sect has not informed the Five Elements Heavenly Sect about the large Heavenly Crystal Mine.
I suspect they are testing the waters, possibly even hoping to reach some sort of agreement with us in secret.
However, I doubt such an agreement is likely.
So.
a confrontation between our sides might still be inevitable.”
“May I ask which Elder is currently stationed at the large Heavenly Crystal mine?”
Wen Tao inquired, bowing slightly towards Yuan Feng and Chi Yan.
After exchanging glances, Elder Yuan Feng answered,
“The one currently stationed at the large Heavenly Crystal mine is our senior brother, Elder Hua Feng.”
“Senior Brother Hua Feng?”
Hearing this name, everyone present could not help but be shocked.
It was clear everyone recognized Elder Hua Feng as one of the Haoran Sect’s most powerful cultivators.
Not only was his cultivation at the Seethrough stage, but he was also considered a standout even within that level.
With him there, unless an opponent of the Dao Integration came forward, there shouldn’t be much trouble under normal circumstances.
“Huh… ?”
Just then, both Elder Yuan Feng and Elder Chi Yan’s expressions changed as they each pulled out a communication jade talisman.
When they finished reading the contents of the communication jade talisman, their relaxed expressions immediately turned solemn.
Seeing their reaction, everyone else in the room tensed up, sensing that something was amiss.
“Senior Brothers, has something happened at the large Heaven Crystal mine?”
“That’s right.”
Elders Yuan Feng and Chi Yan did not hide anything in response to the questions from the crowd.
“Just now, Elder Hua Feng sent us a message, informing that Xu Lingzi from the Eternal Sword Sect led a surprise attack on one of our outposts at the large Heavenly Crystal mine.
Currently, Elder Hua Feng has engaged in several battles with Xu Lingzi and his people, and for the moment, our side holds the upper hand.
However, according to Elder Hua Feng, Xu Lingzi has already sent a message to their Eternal Sword Sect.
It won’t be long before more cultivators from their sect arrive.
He urged us to quickly arrange reinforcements to head to the Xichuan Plains.
We must set up a high-grade Level 7 array, the Vast Harmony Array, around the large Heavenly Crystal mine as soon as possible.
Only by doing so can our Haoran Sect gain a sufficient advantage and securely solidify our claim.”
With that said, Yuan Feng and Chi Yan didn’t waste any more time.
They looked around at those present, calling out several names.
“Those whose names have been called, come with us to the Xichuan Plains.
The rest of you, be prepared as well. If a large-scale conflict breaks out between our two sects, we might need your participation.”
After finishing their instructions, Yuan Feng and Chi Yan, along with the named individuals, quickly left the Elder Hall.
“Junior Brother Jiang, what do you make of this situation?”
At this moment.
Jiang Chengxuan and the others had already started leaving the Elder Hall.
Jiang Chengxuan, Wen Tao, and Hong Mei had not been called upon.
Wen Tao was the one who asked Jiang Chengxuan this question.
After a brief thought, Jiang Chengxuan replied to Wen Tao and Hong Mei,
“I suspect this might just be the beginning.
If things continue to develop this way, it might not be long before a war breaks out, possibly involving four sects or even more.
After all, there are already many conflicts between the human sects.
Some things, once they reach a certain limit, might explode even if no one wants them to.
What do you think, Senior Brother Wen, Senior Sister Hong Mei?”
Jiang Chengxuan’s words made Wen Tao and Hong Mei look solemn.
Upon reflection, they realized that what Jiang Chengxuan had said was indeed accurate.
This incident could potentially become a spark that ignites a war within their human race.
Of course.
That would be the worst-case scenario.
However, the situation might not necessarily develop in that direction.
After bidding farewell to Wen Tao and Hong Mei, Jiang Chengxuan went straight to the Shenwu Peak where his Shifu was.
Upon arriving at Shenwu Peak, Jiang Chengxuan found that his senior sister, Xie Xiangyao, and his senior brother, Zhao Tianfan, were both there.
Their expressions briefly showed surprise upon seeing Jiang Chengxuan, but soon turned into delight.
“Little junior brother, have you advanced to the Celestial Radiance stage?”
“Yeah.”
Jiang Chengxuan smiled and nodded.
“I’ve just broken through recently. I came to report to our Shifu.
By the way, I just visited the Elder Hall and heard about something.”
“Is it about the discovery of a large Heavenly Crystal mine on the Xichuan Plains?” Zhao Tianfan asked.
“Yes, you both already know about it?” Jiang Chengxuan replied, slightly surprised.
Zhao Tianfan and Xie Xiangyao nodded. “We came to see our master today precisely because of this matter.”
“For this matter?” Jiang Chengxuan was puzzled.
Zhao Tianfan explained, “You might not be aware, little junior brother, but Saint Huang An of the Five Elements Heavenly Sect is attempting to break through to Mahayana.
For a Dao Integration Saint to break through to Mahayana, the first requirement is a complete large Heavenly Crystal mine.”
“Really? There’s such a thing?”
Jiang Chengxuan’s pupils dilated in shock, suddenly realizing the complexity surrounding the large Heavenly Crystal mine was far deeper than he had imagined.
If this matter were to be known by Saint Huang An, Jiang Chengxuan could almost predict the reaction.
After all, this concerned his own path towards the Dao, and no one would give up so easily.
Even if that place was discovered by the Haoran Sect first, it was no exception.
If things went wrong, the war he was worried about might really erupt..
