Chapter 390: Chapter 295 Silver Sky Sect_1

The sect’s grand competition ended with an unexpected outcome.

Although Mu Yuan still ranked first with his profound base in the Immortal Life Scripture, the Rank-2 Green Sun Tree Seed in his hand, and his Rank-2 Magic Artifact. He was still able to withstand a few moves even when faced with cultivators in the state of Foundation Establishment.

But the second place was surprisingly taken by the suddenly appeared Yu Lian.

If it wasn’t for him becoming a True Disciple through challenges, and being targeted by all during the last few rounds, with almost all of his cultivation technique cards exposed by the time he entered the finals, perhaps Mu Yuan would have had a fierce fight with him.

Nonetheless, Yu Lian becoming the second True Disciple still caused a huge sensation within the Divine Wood Sect.

As the stepping stone of Yu Lian’s rise, Luo Yixiu was secretly complained about by quite a few True Disciples.

If he had refused Yu Lian’s challenge in the first place, the latter wouldn’t have been able to become a True Disciple due to not having signed up, and all these troubles wouldn’t have occurred.

While the grand competition was progressing to the last two rounds, the news that the Alchemy division was preparing to refine a furnace of a Demonic Beast Foundation Building Pill was finally spread and was known to all the True Disciples.

Following Chen Mobai, Mu Yuan, who had held the first position among True Disciples for three consecutive years, would undoubtedly receive one.

According to the pill formation rate of Zeng Woyou three years ago, there would be at least two pills.

The second Yu Lian, instantly became the object of all True Disciples’ jealousy.

The two True Disciples who ranked third and fourth found their respective department heads in a bid to invalidate this year’s performance of Yu Lian.

Despite knowing that such an act would lead to them being ridiculed by other True Disciples and even all the Qi Cultivation disciples, in the face of the Foundation Building Pill, they had no other choice than to abandon any notion of shame.

After all, the good example of Chen Mobai suppressing the entire sect’s three thousand Qi Cultivators with one sword strike three years ago, obtaining the Demonic Beast Foundation Establishment Pill, and then catapulting overnight to become the sect’s youngest Foundation Establishment elder was right in front of their eyes.

As long as they could drive Yu Lian away, they would have the hope of obtaining the Foundation Building Pill.

When the department heads of the Puppet division and the Artifact Refining division came to meet him, Sect Leader Meng Hong naturally showed a bit of interest. Once he learned about the whole story, he also became a bit curious. He let his subordinates from the Witchcraft division and the Technique Transmission division investigate Yu Lian’s background.

Upon investigation, they found some surprises.

Thus, on the second day of the sect’s grand competition, Meng Hong convened the upper echelons of the Reward Virtue Hall and Punishment Hall to discuss, and finally decided to temporarily freeze Yu Lian’s second place results.

The news reached Chen Mobai, surprising him.

“Oh, why would the Sect Leader do that?”

Chen Mobai was in the Reward Virtue Hall. He was led by Sun Gaochang to visit Chu Zuoshu. The latter was dressed in brocade and had a straight-looking face. Visually, he could beat Meng Hong ten times over.

The news of Yu Lian’s results being frozen was told to Chen Mobai by Chu Zuoshu.

“He seems to be an orphan of the Silver Sky Sect. Although he used a knife as a sword during the sect competition, traces of the Silver Sky Thousand Absoluteness Sword Scripture were still discovered by the Witchcraft Division. The Sect Leader consulted me and the Vice Hall Master and we decided, just to be safe, to freeze his results.”

“Silver Sky Sect?”

This was an unfamiliar term to Chen Mobai, as he had never heard of it. However, he didn’t bother understanding the forces in Tianhe Realm or even Eastern Wilderness. The time may be better spent cultivating his Pure Yang Daoist Body.

“The Silver Sky Sect is the inheritance of the Wangu Sect. The Wangu Sect was the overlord of Eastern Wilderness before the Five Elements Sect. They were wiped out by the seven great sects in Eastern Wilderness.”

“The Silver Sky Sect was established by disciples of the Wangu Sect who conceded to our Five Elements Sect back in those days. It’s a pity that the Silver Sky Sect made some minor moves during the split of our Five Elements Sect and was expelled from their original place in Yun Country by the Ancestor of the Fire Vein.”

“It’s unexpected though, that after the Silver Sky Sect relocated to the neighboring Snow Country, it quickly began to decline. After the sect’s three Foundation Establishment cultivators each passed away, the sect was raided by a group of mysterious cultivators twenty years ago. All inheritances and foundations obtained from the Wangu Sect were completely looted.”

Chu Zuoshu was very pleased that Chen Mobai was willing to come to the Reward Virtue Hall, with Yue Zutao accompanying them and brewing tea. They sat together, all at the Foundation Establishment realm, discussing the origins of the Silver Sky Sect and the Wangu Sect.

“So, the fall of the Silver Sky Sect has nothing to do with my Divine Wood Sect.”

Chen Mobai was puzzled as he opened his mouth. The fall of the Silver Sky Sect, although it originated from the infighting of the Five Elements Sect, was in the final analysis due to their own lack of strength, holding the foundation of the Wangu Sect, and the sin of harboring precious things.

“True as it may be, who knows what the descendants of the Silver Sky Sect think. If they harbor resentment, wouldn’t giving him the Foundation Building Pill be inviting a wolf into the house.”

Chu Zuoshu’s words made sense, and both Sun Gaochang and Yue Zutao nodded in agreement.

Chen Mobai merely took a sip of his clear tea and said nothing.

“Does Junior Brother Chen have a different opinion?”

Of course, Chu Zuoshu also noticed this and asked.

“A little bit. Yu Lian became a True Disciple completely according to the rules and laws of the Divine Wood Sect. If today his achievements are stripped away due to such unfounded resentment, then in the future, could the upper ranks of the sect use the same excuse to strip other True Disciples of their Foundation Building Pills?”

Although Chen Mobai’s words weren’t explicit, everyone present was quick-witted and understood what he meant.

This precedent must not be set.

“Actually, I don’t really have any opinion on this matter. After all, I’ve agreed with the Sect Leader that I’ll support whatever he wants to do for the next two years.”
