Chapter 828: Origin of the War, New World

Editor: Henyee Translations

Xue Ping paused briefly before continuing,

“For this conflict, our Haoran Sect, as always, will stand alongside our allies from Thunderclap Valley.

Our opponents are the super and overlord sects of the demonic path, the Ghost Hall and the Joyous Union Valley.”

“Huh? The Ghostly Hall and Joyous Union Valley?”

The mention of these names stirred the a.s.sembly, as these two demonic sects were well-known to everyone present.

The Haoran Sect had clashed with them numerous times in the past, though those encounters were mostly limited to the Soul Formation and Void Returning levels, never escalating to involve Dao Integration Saints as it did now.

This time, the conflict threatened to draw upon the very foundations of their sects.

Xue Ping then elaborated on the details of the conflict, eventually dismissing everyone to await further instructions from the sect.

Jiang Chengxuan, Zhao Tianfan, and Xie Xiangyao, after exchanging pleasantries with familiar cultivators, made their way to their Shifu, Qin Shenwu’s, location at Shenwu Peak.

Given the gravity of the situation, they felt it imperative to consult with their Shifu.

Soon, the three of them landed on the Shenwu Peak.

As for their Shifu, Qin Shenwu, he seemed to have known that they would come and actually waited at the peak in advance.

“Shifu!”

Jiang Chengxuan and the other two immediately bowed.

Qjn Shenwu turned around and nodded at them.

“I already know why you’re here.

To be honest, there is indeed a huge risk in this war.

As my disciples, I can try to delay your deployment to the battlefield if you wish.”

Hearing this, Jiang Chengxuan, Zhao Tianfan, and Xie Xiangyao felt a tremor in their hearts, sensing the severity of the upcoming war and the deep care their Shifu had for them.

At the same time, they felt a strong sense of love from their Shifu.

They could not help but feel touched.

However, they also knew that as Qin Shenwu’s disciples, although they had the right to delay going to the battlefield,

In this kind of war that concerned the fate of the righteous and demonic paths, once they retreated, the impact on the entire battle would be huge.

More importantly, they pondered how their inaction would be perceived by others within the sect and the potential impact on Qin Shenwu’s prestige and the sect’s future.

They knew that Qin Shenwu, being a supreme elder, was acutely aware of these considerations.

Despite this, Qin Shenwu had offered them this option.

Jiang Chengxuan, Zhao Tianfan, and Xie Xiangyao looked at each other.

It was as if they could see determination in each other’s eyes.

The three of them suddenly said at the same time, “Shifu, we’re willing to follow the sect’s arrangements!”

Qin Shenwu momentarily appeared surprised, then smiled and nodded in approval.

“Very well, then I won’t have to ‘beg’ for you.

Since you are my disciples, the arrangements for your partic.i.p.ation in the battlefield will be decided by me.

Wait for my instructions when the time comes.”

Hearing this, Jiang Chengxuan and the other two couldn’t help but look at each other again and answer in unison, “Yes.”

At this moment, Xie Xiangyao suddenly thought of something and could not help but ask Qjn Shenwu,

“Shifu, is this war between the righteous and demonic paths truly just about our conflicts, or is there something more hidden behind it?”

This question clearly reflected the concerns of both Jiang Chengxuan and Zhao Tianfan as well, who turned their attention to Qjn Shenwu, eager for his response.

After a moment of contemplation, Qjn Shenwu finally revealed,

“You’re right to suspect. This war isn’t as straightforward as it appears.

To be frank, this is a battle over the control of a new world.”

“A battle for a newworld?”

When they suddenly heard Qin Shenwu’s words, Jiang Chengxuan and the other two could not help but be shocked with a look of disbelief on their faces.

Clearly, they already knew what new world Qin Shenwu was referring to.

However, regardless of whether out of uncertainty or shock, the two of them still continued to ask.

“Shifu, by ‘newworld,’ do you mean a realm akin to our Celestial Floodgate Realm?”

“That’s right.”

Qin Shenwu confirmed directly with a nod.

“If it weren’t for something as significant as this, neither the righteous nor the demonic paths would engage in a war of such magnitude.

Do you think we have nothing better to do than to start a ma.s.sive conflict without cause?”

“Hiss!”

The revelation left Jiang Chengxuan, Zhao Tianfan, and Xie Xiangyao gasping in shock.

They fully grasped the significance of a new world on par with their Celestial Floodgate Realm.

The potential value of such a world was immense, considering the treasures and resources it could contain, especially if it was a newly formed realm.

There must be countless precious treasures inside.

Most importantly, in such a newly formed world, there might be precious Skyforge Purple Qi, a substance even ascended immortals would covet.

Should this realm fall into the hands of either the righteous or the demonic paths, it could decisively tip the balance of power in the future.

In the distant future, the side that controlled the new world would definitely be able to easily defeat the side that did not.

The conflict over this newworld represented an irreconcilable contradiction between the two sides, unless they agreed to co-manage it.

Even then, battles would inevitably be fought to determine the extent of each side’s control.

Qin Shenwu further cautioned, “On this matter, both the righteous and demonic paths have sworn oaths to the heavens not to disclose this information to other races, including cultivators from other realms. Anyone who breaks this oath will suffer retribution from the Heavenly Dao.

So.

Keep this information to yourselves. Those who need to know will find out in due time.

Those who don’t, simply aren’t meant to know yet.

Understand?”

“Yes, Shifu!”

Jiang Chengxuan and the other two immediately nodded solemnly.

After spending some more time with Qin Shenwu, absorbing his teachings, Jiang Chengxuan and the other two left Shenwu Peak, each returning to their respective cave abodes.
