Chapter 267: Chaotic Situation

Elder Lie Yan has transformed into Daoist Master Roaring Blaze, but this change is not just a mere title shift; it signifies an impending upheaval in the entire Endless Sea of Sand.

Initially, Twin Success Valley, a large sect, was suppressed by the Flying Swan Sect because they wanted to cultivate their own Gold Core Daoist Master. Later, they were annihilated by the Flying Swan Sect when they attempted to seize the Heavenly Rainfall.

Similarly, Guang ZhiDaoist Master of Forest Spring Watch grasped the opportunity during that chaotic period to form his own core.

Flying Swan Sect repeatedly pressured and plotted against Guang ZhiDaoist Master, but he, being decisive and intelligent, managed to escape their schemes with the help of Qi Family's Gold Core Daoist Master.

Then, coincidentally, the chaos of the sand monster erupted, and the Flying Swan Sect had no choice but to compromise and recognize Guang ZhiDaoist Master's position.

Flying Swan Sect made peace with Qi Family and hired Guang ZhiDaoist Master to participate in the conflict, eventually pacifying the sand monster upheaval.

Unexpectedly, the Elder Lie Yan of Earthfire Sect took advantage of the Flying Swan Sect's distractions and successfully formed his core at this opportune moment.

Elder Lie Yan of Earthfire Sect was already renowned, known as a late-stage Foundation Building cultivator with significant fame in the Endless Sea of Sand. However, nobody expected that he would one day become a Gold Core Daoist Master.

In reality, some senior members of the Flying Swan Sect had seen him before and evaluated his potential, doubting his prospects on the path of cultivation.

Although Earthfire Sect had considerable influence, it was ultimately a Foundation Building sect. Due to the flaws in their cultivation techniques and limited resources, reaching the late stage of Foundation Building was already their limit. His potential was nearly exhausted, leaving little room for further advancement.

In fact, throughout Earthfire Sect's history, there were many geniuses even more astonishing than Elder Lie Yan. However, due to the flaws in their techniques, they were unable to form their cores and remained trapped in the Foundation Building stage for their entire lives.

Elder Lie Yan's successful core formation seemed to prove that the Gold Core Daoist Masters of Flying Swan Sect had indeed misjudged him.

Having served as the Taiyi Sect Master for many years, Meng Zhang possessed detailed information about the surrounding cultivation forces.

He had some understanding of Earthfire Sect, a trading partner for many years.

Meng Zhang could not have anticipated that Elder Lie Yan would suddenly become Daoist Master Roaring Blaze at this particular time.Ñ00v€l--ß1n hosted the premiere release of this chapter.

Considering the collusion between Earthfire Sect and Fire Cloud Sect, Meng Zhang couldn't help but suspect that Daoist Master Roaring Blaze's successful core formation was due to assistance from Fire Cloud Sect.

Fire Cloud Sect, an ancient Gold Core sect, had a heritage even longer than that of the Flying Swan Sect. Such a major sect might possess secret legacies capable of helping others form their cores.

If Daoist Master Roaring Blaze indeed relied on Fire Cloud Sect to succeed in forming his core, then the relationship between the two sects was not as simple as it seemed. The intricacies of the situation felt overwhelming.

As a vassal of Forest Spring Watch, Taiyi Sect should have been on the same side as them. However, Meng Zhang had no loyalty or trust towards Forest Spring Watch and was unwilling to place the fate of Taiyi Sect in their hands.

Since the internal discussions yielded no conclusive results, Meng Zhang decided to seek the advice of external experts.

Forest Mountain School was a staunch supporter of Forest Spring Watch, so it wasn't a viable option. Gu Tanghai of Shi Family was a cunning old fox, and he couldn't be trusted either.

Qiaoshou Sect, as Taiyi Sect's ally, had maintained a good relationship over the years. Aunt Jin was also a seasoned and crafty individual.

Meng Zhang thought it might be a good idea to visit her and hear her opinion.

With this in mind, Meng Zhang left Taiyi Sect and headed to Qiaoshou Sect.

Upon arriving at Qiaoshou Sect, he was led to the sect's main hall and easily met Aunt Jin and Jin Qigu.

Jin Qiao'er was still the same as before, always accompanying the two of them. Despite reaching the Refining Qi Late stage, she remained as lively and innocent as a child.

As soon as she saw Meng Zhang, she clamored to play with Zhui Dian (Chasing Lightning) and Liu Li (Colored Glaze).

Meng Zhang put the two little ones into the spirit beast bag when he went out and carried them with him.

After years of evolution and ample resource supply, the two little ones had made significant progress.

They both had at least the combat power of the Refining Qi Middle stage and had become smarter and more human-like, making remarkable progress in their respective areas of expertise.

Zhui Dian (Chasing Lightning) was even faster now, as not even an ordinary Foundation Building cultivator could catch up to him.

Liu Li (Colored Glaze) had awakened talents in illusion techniques and could release some simple illusions. Mischievous by nature, she often used these illusions to play tricks on the new disciples of Taiyi Sect.

Meng Zhang released the two little ones from the spirit beast bag.

When they saw Jin Qiao'er, although it had been many years, they still remembered this little girl who used to give them red fruits to eat.

Jin Qiao'er cheered and immediately became close friends with the two little ones.

They all played and had fun together, leaving the main hall and leaving only Meng Zhang, Aunt Jin, and Jin Qigu behind.
