Sect Master’s Immortal Journey

Chapter 512: Striking

This category of frenzied Diviners was given a nickname by other Diviners, known as "Blood Diviner Hunter". The origin of this nickname is due to their crazed and bloody hunting of other Diviners.

Many Diviners believe that these so-called Blood Diviner Hunters have already fallen into madness and lost their own consciousness. They are no longer individuals with independent will but rather complete puppets controlled by an unknown power.

In reality, due to the rarity of Diviners in the Cultivation World and their deliberate efforts to remain mysterious, many Cultivators are unaware of the conflicts between Diviners.

Countless cultivation forces desire to possess Diviners, and those who do have them will protect their Diviners at all costs, keeping any information about them tightly guarded. Gu Yue Huaidie is a highly renowned cultivator in Great Wind City, but her identity as a Diviner remains unknown to outsiders. If not for a fortuitous encounter, Meng Zhang would not have discovered it either.

After reading through this lengthy content, Meng Zhang gained sufficient understanding of Diviners. He also felt relieved that his caution in not revealing his own identity as a Diviner to Gu Yue Huaidie had been justified. Although Gu Yue Huaidie appeared gentle and friendly, one couldn't read anything from the face of a Blood Diviner Hunter.

As for the divergence between the paths of Obeying Heaven and Defying Heaven among Diviners, Meng Zhang currently had no clues. Nevertheless, in his daily conduct, he inclined towards the path of Obeying Heaven and obeyed the will of others. He wasn't an immature youth shouting for the Heaven-Defying Road, wanting to dominate the heavens, the earth, and the air.

Meng Zhang still had some doubts. It was said that Diviners were prone to attracting calamities, but even though he had been a Diviner for a long time, he hadn't encountered any major catastrophes. Could it be that because he was a transmigrator, the heavens favored him and didn't send down calamities at random?

Putting aside these dubious speculations, Meng Zhang decided not to waste his energy on these unfathomable matters. To prevent attracting the mad hunts of Blood Diviner Hunters, he would continue to keep his Diviner identity as secret as possible.

Apart from the information about Diviners, the other content in the records also broadened Meng Zhang's horizons. The various Holy Lands of the Middle-Earth Continent, the distribution of different cultivation forces, and the entanglements between them were all fascinating.

The abundance of Middle-Earth Continent mentioned in the records made Meng Zhang envious. Compared to the Endless Sea of Sand and Demon Wind Gobi, Middle-Earth Continent seemed incredibly prosperous and a coveted cultivation paradise for numerous cultivators.

In Taiyi Sect, outside appeared relaxed while inside was strict, and Meng Zhang lived a leisurely life. However, this leisurely life was interrupted by an unexpected visitor after less than two months.

Jin LiDaoist Master, who had been absent for a long time, suddenly arrived outside the Grand Lion Ridge, wanting to meet Meng Zhang.

Meng Zhang respectfully invited Jin LiDaoist Master in and was trying to guess the purpose of his visit when Jin LiDaoist Master shouted, "Meng Zhang, you have a lot of nerve! How dare you collude with Fire Cloud Sect!"

Meng Zhang was startled but quickly regained his composure.

Jin LiDaoist Master could simply attack if she had malicious intent. With her Cultivation Base at the Gold Corelate stage, even with the assistance of the Third Rank mountain-guarding great formation, Meng Zhang wouldn't stand a chance against her.

Jin LiDaoist Master seemed to be intimidating him, but in reality, she was giving him a chance to explain. Meng Zhang dared not be negligent and immediately started explaining.

He incessantly spoke, saying that despite Daoist Master Scarlet Flame of the Fire Cloud Sect offering various conditions and tempting him desperately, he had steadfastly adhered to his principles and rejected the enticement.

Jin LiDaoist Master looked at Meng Zhang with a half-smile, and only after Meng Zhang finished speaking did she say, "You're still honest enough not to hide the fact that you had dealings with Daoist Master Scarlet Flame."

"If you had not honestly admitted to having dealings with Daoist Master Scarlet Flame just now, I would have had to take action against you, even if I didn't want to." Meng Zhang wiped a non-existent cold sweat and sincerely expressed his loyalty to Jin LiDaoist Master, assuring her that he would never collude with the Fire Cloud Sect.

In his mind, though, he secretly complained. Daoist Master Scarlet Flame's first visit could be overlooked, but making such a commotion during the second visit was hard to hide from anyone.

Jin LiDaoist Master looked at Meng Zhang meaningfully and said, "Daoist Master Meng, within the Endless Sea of Sand, as long as True Monarch Tian Zhu is willing, nothing can be hidden from him." Meng Zhang appeared to have a humble expression, but he didn't believe it for a moment.

True Monarch Tian Zhu's vast Divine Ability and all-seeing eyes were true, but he wasn't an all-knowing and omnipotent immortal. Leaving aside other matters, he certainly wouldn't know that Meng Zhang was a transmigrator.

Next, Jin LiDaoist Master scolded Meng Zhang severely. True Monarch Tian Zhu, as a powerful expert at the Primordial Spirit late stage, was the true ruler of the Endless Sea of Sand. Even Flying Swan Sect, the ruler of the Endless Sea of Sand, was only his minion.

Taiyi Sect, as a sect of the Endless Sea of Sand, no matter how prosperous it became, had to obey True Monarch Tian Zhu as long as it lacked the power to confront a Primordial Spirit True Monarch. Since True Monarch Tian Zhu had chosen Flying Swan Sect as the ruler of the Endless Sea of Sand, Taiyi Sect should submit to Flying Swan Sect. Even if Taiyi Sect became a Gold Core sect, it couldn't easily defy Flying Swan Sect.

Recently, Taiyi Sect's actions had led to a confrontation with Flying Swan Sect. Especially the fact that Taiyi Sect dared to have secret dealings with the outsider, Fire Cloud Sect, had displeased True Monarch Tian Zhu.

Fortunately, there was no substantial collusion between Taiyi Sect and Fire Cloud Sect, and Meng Zhang hadn't accepted any of Fire Cloud Sect's conditions or entered into any agreements with them. With Jin LiDaoist Master speaking in favor of Taiyi Sect, True Monarch Tian Zhu didn't press the matter too much.

Hearing this, Meng Zhang naturally felt grateful to Jin LiDaoist Master and expressed gratitude profusely. However, Jin LiDaoist Master paid no attention to these pleasantries and directly revealed her purpose.

Fire Cloud Sect was about to engage in a major battle with Flying Swan Sect. In this conflict, Taiyi Sect must stand with Flying Swan Sect and assist them against Fire Cloud Sect. This was True Monarch Tian Zhu's intention, and Taiyi Sect couldn't offer the slightest resistance.

Though Meng Zhang knew Taiyi Sect couldn't refuse True Monarch Tian Zhu's command, he still showed a troubled expression. He wasn't going to defy True Monarch Tian Zhu's orders but intended to negotiate for better benefits for Taiyi Sect.

Thus, Meng Zhang began to lament his situation.
