Chapter 1032: Taoist Faction calamity

Pretty much at the same time, in the Daoling Vast Habitat which was tens of thousands of miles away, the atmosphere was really depressing and cold, dark and sunken.

“We lost, the three factions joined hands and we actually still lost...”

“How is that possible?”

“Nine End Realm Saint Venerables, five God Venerables. They actually couldn’t break through a single Common People’s Vast Habitat?”

“What a scary Ten Thousand Celestial Formation and terrifying Common People’s Seven Swords!”

“10,000 years ago, the things left behind from someone half a step to True Realm Expert were actually so strong.”

“Without that Great Gan Monster Lord Zong Shou, how would the Seven Swords and the formation even get completed...”

That person is really the cause of all of this! That year, I found it weird why Great Gan and Common People’s Path were so close to one another.”

“Even Ancestor Kunming fell.”

“His body was destroyed, luckily his soul could be gathered and formed once more.”

“If Cibei Taoist Lord was still here, this battle wouldn’t have ended like that...”

“Nonsense, how dare you say such things?”

Within the Taoist Palace, Qingming stood on a cloud bridge, tears flowing down her face. Her jade hands were tightly clenched and she was grinding her teeth.

Zong Shou once again, that evil Ruler!

Last time he nearly killed her, this time he killed someone so close to her...

Although someone of the End Realm wouldn’t die and his soul would be formed after a few thousand years, when she thought to how she wouldn’t be able to see him in 5,000 years, she felt a heart splitting pain!

If she wasn’t able to break through, then after this time they wouldn’t be able to see one another anymore.

She really wished that she could skin him alive and feed on his flesh!

She looked out at the entire Vast Habitat, there were cultivators everywhere, sitting crossed legged and healing up. Most of them had defeated expressions on their faces.

Apart from the fact that they had suffered such a defeat, their morale was really low because of Zong Shou’s sword.

Although Qingxuan was able to block it and the 800,000 Taoist Faction disciples weren’t wiped out, most of them suffered from the damage of the Will of the Heavens, their souls were seriously injured.

If they weren’t able to get across that, then a portion of them would be unable to advance in their life. Most of the disciples who were really talented might become trash just like that.

This was the calamity of the Taoist Faction! A huge disaster for them!

Qingming’s eyes were filled with shock and her tightly clenched fist relaxed a bit.

At this point, the Daoling Vast Habitat and the 3,000 Taoist Sects were at their weakest; Kunming’s death and the two Taoist Lords had suffered severe injuries.

Many disciples felt annoyed when they decided to join hands with the Demon Sect. At this point, there were many elders, many sects who blamed the Vast Habitat and the Taoist Lords.

If they weren’t able to safely survive this, it would be the start of the fall of their sect. How would they even manage to get revenge?

She suddenly got up and flew outside of the 10,000-lamp room.

As the Daoling Palace Head, no one stopped her when she came in and out of this place. When she stepped in, she wasn’t blocked by those restrictions.

Those Taoist Cultivators had no intention to stop her.

Although Kunming died, he died to save Qingxuan. Qingming’s position in the Taoist Faction would not only not drop but instead she would be more well-liked.

The moment she entered, she heard the voice of Taihuang Taoist Lord, “This time we indeed suffered heavy losses, luckily our foundations weren’t damaged. A large number of the Purple Qilin Flame Spear Cavalry were shifted back and all the True Martial Sword Soldiers were protected. Why does Senior Brother Qingxuan have to worry? Unfortunately, Kunming...”

Qingming’s face dimmed.

A bitter expression appeared at the corner of her lips. It was true that the True Martial Sword Soldiers and Purple Qilin Flame Spear Cavalry were protected.

However, the true foundations of the Taoist Faction weren’t those but those cultivators who had hopes of improving and advancing.

After all, even if they had a billion Dao Soldiers, it couldn’t be compared to just one End Realm.

The Common People’s Seven Swords was an exception. If it left the Vast Habitat and away from the restrictive ability of the Ten Thousand Celestial Formation, then its effects would be really small.

It needed five End Realms to block it but just one to restrict it.

But now, not only did a portion of the futures of their cultivations get wiped out, but they also lost unity. Zong Shou alone wiped out 37 Taoist Sects and in this battle he damaged the souls of hundreds of thousands of people.

Both times they had suffered such heavy losses. There was nothing the two Taoist Ancestors could do, so how could people not feel annoyed and unhappy?

“Although that is the case, close to 200,000 disciples suffered the momentum of the Common People’s Seven Swords, so how can I not worry?”

Qingxuan who was in the middle of the room was ashen white, his face was extremely ugly. Seeing Qingming enter, she was slightly distracted, happily nodding her head and a look of pity showed in his eyes.

“We still need to come up with an explanation for this and not let the disciples blame us and hate us. From today on, I will enter secluded meditation and craft 200 Nine Cycle Energy Pills to give it to them. There is no inside or outside of the Faction, as long as one is injured one can take it.”

Taihuang’s brow rose up and he was filled with shock. The Nine Cycle Energy Pill was a top-grade Celestial Pill which helped God Realm Cultivators used to train their Spiritual Sense.

However, to refine this pill, one needed to consume large amounts of materials. Crafting also required the Heart Blood and True Essence of the Pill Refiner.

Even if one was at the End Realm, one would need to consume a lot. This was why it wasn’t common in the world. If a God Realm Cultivator was able to get one, they would be delighted.

If the 200 pills were split and shared, they could help to heal the injuries of those 200,000 disciples.

Within this Ten Thousand Lamp Cave, there were close to 20 Saint Realm Cultivators and the Sect Leaders of the various sects.

When they heard this, they all fidgeted and grateful expressions appeared on their faces.

If he refined these 200 pills, within 20 years, Qingxuan wouldn’t be able to fight others.

After he refined it, his Essence Energy would be affected and his cultivation will reduce. The price to pay was huge.

“If the disciples learn about it, they will thank Senior Brother for your care.”

Taihuang was slightly shocked, after which he laughed, “Taihuang can’t let Senior Brother do everything. Since you are prepared to give them the Nine Cycle Energy Pills, then I will take out 600 Huangya Pills.”

Qingming’s expression changed once more. After returning to the Vast Habitat, her heart was carried up by her and now it finally relaxed.

Huangya Pills were Intermediate Grade Celestial Pills, something only owed by Taihuang Taoist Lord. They were also really hard to refine.

The Nine Cycle Energy Pill could help recover one’s Spiritual Sense while this Huangya Pill could increase one’s cultivation.

It was obvious that the two Taoist Lords knew what was happening within the Taoist Faction. They were taking the pills out to calm everyone down.

With a few words from the both of them, the suppressed atmosphere within the room changed.

“The disciples suffering damage to their souls is one reason, what I am worried about is still Zong Shou! Even if they have four End Realm Cultivators, I am still not worried about it.”

Qingxuan’s gaze was still dark and sunken, “This kid is in charge of Great Gan and his Sword Path and cultivation is famous around the world. Apart from Saint Realm Cultivators, he is pretty much invincible in the Cloud World. How should we deal with this kid now that he has returned? To kill him is not tough but we will offend the Sky Burning Lu Family. However, if we allow him to grow like this, sooner or later, he will cover the heavens and it will be tough to waver. It will also put our 100-year plan at risk...”
