Chapter 1894 Leading Everyone into Seclusion
Seeing that no one had any objection to the first point, Mingchuan continued speaking solemnly.
"Secondly, we need to take immediate action. The primary goal is to find other Star Pivot Tokens and confirm the status of the remaining gatekeepers, attempting to awaken or contact them in order to prepare for restarting or repairing the Zhou Tian Zhen Xu Grand Array."
"Based on the vague clues in the Star Mark Record and the influence of the Star Pivot Token, other tokens are likely scattered throughout the myriad realms, or even in the Spirit Realm or adjacent realms."
"I need the four major sects to use all your ancient traditions, secret texts, and most clandestine investigative channels to find any clues related to the Star Pivot, the Gatekeeper, and the Ruins Seal."
"At the same time, we will strengthen the monitoring of abnormal energy fluctuations, unusual movements of ancient relics, and especially events related to stars, space, and the power of annihilation within the territory."
"Third, the Silent Zen Monastery is our direct enemy. Their search for anchor points and attempts to open channels will not cease."
"We must consolidate our forces, take the initiative to strike, and thwart their schemes. At the same time, we must guard against Yueyao and her Longyin Temple taking advantage of the chaos. She may even know more about the inside story and have deeper schemes."
After Mingchuan finished speaking, everyone's mood became even more somber.
After a long while, Ye Chuhan sighed deeply.
“Mingchuan, we understand what you’re saying. We’ve done so much preparation for battle with you before, but was it actually useful? Let’s not even talk about Yueyao’s side; the strength of those people from the Silent Extinction Zen Temple is terrifying to the extreme. The fact that they could injure three Nascent Soul stage experts like Lingxu Zhenren like this means that the Silent Extinction Zen Temple also has Nascent Soul stage or even Integration stage experts!”
"As for our Spirit Realm... the four strongest warriors in the Spirit Realm are all in your sect, and they are at most at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage. Even if we join forces, how can we possibly deal with those terrifying opponents?"
This really speaks to everyone's feelings.
Mingchuan's eyes darkened, and after a long silence, Chu Huai spoke again.
“We are not only in the Spirit Realm and the Holy Realm. Perhaps we can contact people in other realms and talk about joining forces? In addition, there must be many people in the Holy Realm who want to oppose Yueyao and the others. We can try to join forces with them.”
Mingchuan pursed his lips tightly.
Master Huineng of Dafan Temple had already made his stance very clear: he remained neutral and would not help anyone.
And the Moon Wheel Pavilion had a grudge against him.
Currently, the only group he hasn't officially contacted is the Holy Domain Dynasty...
The air in the council chamber seemed to freeze; Ye Chuhan's words were like a bucket of cold water poured over everyone's hearts.
Reality is so cruel.
The high-end combat power of the Spirit Realm is indeed far behind that of its opponents.
Although Chu Huai's suggestion sounded like a solution, it was equally difficult to implement.
The forces within the Holy Domain are deeply entrenched and their interests are complex. Finding reliable and powerful allies in a short period of time is no easy task.
Moreover, faced with a world-destroying threat like the Eye of the Ruins, how many forces would choose to believe and wholeheartedly help, rather than protect themselves or even take advantage of the situation?
All eyes were once again focused on Mingchuan, awaiting his decision.
Mingchuan remained silent, his fingers unconsciously stroking the cool surface of the Star Pivot Order.
The faint starlight emanating from the token seemed to carry a trace of timeless calm.
His gaze swept across the faces present, and finally, a resolute light flashed deep in his eyes.
"Ye Chuhan is right, and Chu Huai's suggestion makes sense."
"But whether we unite with outsiders or fight against powerful enemies, in the end, if our own fists are not strong enough, it's all just empty talk. It's better to rely on ourselves than on others. At the negotiating table, strength is the best bargaining chip."
He raised his head, his sharp gaze fixed on Ye Chuhan and the other three: "What we lack is time, but even more so, top-tier combat power. Senior Lingxu and the others were injured not only because their opponents were powerful, but also because the gap in the top-tier power of our Spirit Domain is too severe!"
"The Nascent Soul stage is a watershed moment, and the Body Integration stage is even more unattainable. If we had a few truly capable Nascent Soul cultivators on our side, the situation might be completely different!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Chuhan, Lin Ruowei, Chu Huai, and Mu Yaoyao all showed expressions of embarrassment and helplessness.
How could they not know?
Breaking through cultivation levels, especially after reaching the Nascent Soul stage, is incredibly difficult, requiring not only massive resources and exceptional talent, but also fortuitous opportunities and profound understanding.
Their sect leader has been stuck at the early Nascent Soul stage for many years, which has become a major concern for him and is one of the reasons why the four major sects have been subtly suppressed by the Holy Domain in recent years.
Mingchuan noticed their expressions but didn't point out the awkwardness. Instead, he directly stated his plan:
"The 'Star Mark Record' and the Star Pivot Token that my master brought back not only record secrets, but also contain profound mysteries of the laws of stars and space. In particular, the Star Pivot Token has a very strong auxiliary effect on comprehending the relevant laws."
"My cultivation method is special, which may allow me to make a breakthrough in a short period of time. But it's not enough for me alone."
He looked intently at the four of them: "Ye Chuhan, Lin Ruowei, Chu Huai, and Mu Yaoyao, you must immediately return to your respective sects. Please ask the four sect leaders to put aside all their affairs and come to my Wanchuan Sect as quickly and secretly as possible!"
"I will open the core secret realm of the Wanchuan Sect, and with the help of the power of the stars activated by the Star Pivot Token, as well as some of the resources accumulated by our sect, and combined with the ancient Daoist rhymes in the 'Star Mark Record' that may resonate with the cultivation methods of various sects, I will try to help the four sect leaders... break through their bottlenecks!"
"what?!"
Ye Chuhan and the other three exclaimed almost simultaneously, their faces filled with shock and disbelief.
Helping four people break through to the early Nascent Soul stage?
This sounds like a complete fantasy!
Improving one's cultivation level is never that easy.
Moreover, helping others break through involves unimaginable risks and difficulties.
"Mingchuan, will this... will this work?" Lin Ruowei couldn't help but ask, her eyes filled with both anticipation and deep doubt.
Sect Master Lin had been stuck at the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm for a long time, to the point that it had almost become an obsession.
“I know this sounds incredible,” Mingchuan said frankly.
“I’m not 100% certain. But the Star Pivot Token and the Star Mark Record are of extremely high level, and the fragments of laws they contain might provide that sliver of opportunity. With the help of spatial power to harmonize them, and by concentrating resources and giving it my all, there’s at least a 50% chance that they can at least step into the mid-Nascent Soul stage, or even… touch the threshold of the late-Nascent Soul stage!”
A 50% chance! From the early to mid or even late stages of the Nascent Soul realm!
For the four sect leaders who had been in distress for many years, this was undoubtedly a ray of light in the darkness!
Chu Huai took a deep breath, suppressing his excitement and regaining his composure: "How long will it take?"
"I will try to keep the timeline within a month. This is a window of opportunity we must seize. During this period, Wan Chuanzong and I will do our utmost."
