Chapter 511: Obeying Heaven, Defying Heaven

The subsequent actions of Daoist Master Scarlet Flame did not surprise Meng Zhang. Shortly after leaving Taiyi Sect, he boldly visited the Qi Family in the Northern Desert. Upon arriving at the Qi Family, Daoist Master Scarlet Flame received a warm reception from Daoist Master Qi Nanfei. The details of their conversation remain unknown to the scouts of Taiyi Sect.

Meng Zhang attempted to use the Grand Evolving Fortune Calculation, but could only see a blurry scene. He had already anticipated this situation to some extent.

After leaving the Qi Family in the Northern Desert, Daoist Master Scarlet Flame did not visit Taiyi Sect again. Instead, he returned directly to the residence of Fire Cloud Sect in the Endless Sea of Sand.Th.ê most uptodate novels are published on n(0)velbj)n(.)co/m

Upon his return, Daoist Master Scarlet Flame did not immediately launch an attack on the Yellow Sand Ridge, the main gate of the Flying Swan Sect. Instead, he maintained the current situation.

The improvement in the Grand Evolving Fortune Calculation gave Meng Zhang more confidence to deal with various situations. Although he was unable to successfully calculate the purpose of Daoist Master Scarlet Flame, as a master of fortune-telling, his ability to have sudden insights was strengthened. As long as it was not a direct intervention by a Primordial Spirit True Monarch or the interference of another diviner, he would remain vigilant before the crisis arrived.

On the surface, both Taiyi Sect and the entire Hanhai Alliance appeared normal, but preparations for war were secretly underway.

Taiyi Sect occupied a large territory in the Demon Wind Gobi, and even though it was only in the initial stages of development, it still generated considerable income. Especially after the death of Qin Hongying, Taiyi Sect was relieved of a huge burden.

When Qin Hongying voluntarily invited Meng Zhang to go to the Yachao, she promised him many benefits. Now that Qin Hongying was dead, Meng Zhang naturally had to fulfill her promises.

Qin Hongying left behind many belongings in her residence at Taiyi Sect, which were promptly confiscated without hesitation by Taiyi Sect.

Taiyi Sect was originally supposed to provide various resources to the Qin Family in installments, but now they no longer needed to do so. With the loss of Qin Hongying, the only Gold Core Daoist Master of the Qin Family, they would soon face various troubles and experience a rapid decline. It would only be when the family faced a life-or-death crisis that Meng Zhang and Daoist Master Luo Ye would intervene.

The abundant resources saved by Taiyi Sect were continuously sent to Great Wind City, where they were sold in exchange for a large quantity of war supplies. In fact, even before this, Fire Cloud Sect and Flying Swan Sect had purchased various war supplies from Great Wind City multiple times.

In the past few years, the various Shang Families in Great Wind City had made a fortune by selling various war supplies. Due to the prolonged war, Great Wind City, being the closest trading hub to the Endless Sea of Sand, saw the prices of various war supplies more than double.

Diviners use various fortune-telling techniques to calculate the changes in fortune and explore the mysteries of the heavens.

Calculating fortune comes at a cost, and peering into the heavens naturally invites backlash from the heavens. Diviners often have shorter lifespans and are more prone to calamities than other cultivators.

Some diviners, in order to resolve the backlash from the heavens, adhere to the principle of obeying heaven in their actions. They act in accordance with the will of the heavens and even make up for the shortcomings that the heavens overlook. Their ultimate goal is to become the spokesperson of the heavens and uphold the will of the heavens.

Representatives of this type of diviner are the diviners from the Viewing Heaven Pavilion, a holy land for cultivation in the Cultivation World. The fundamental principle of the Viewing Heaven Pavilion is to observe the way of heaven and act in accordance with it.

On the other hand, there are diviners who specifically seek out loopholes in the heavens and evade the backlash from the heavens. These diviners walk the path of defying heaven, which naturally invites the disdain of the heavens. Their ultimate goal is to completely break free from the constraints of the heavens and seek true freedom.

Although the ultimate goals and methods of the two types of diviners are completely opposite, they are not incompatible. They often transform between the two.

Diviners who obey heaven may sometimes have to go against the will of defying heaven. Diviners on the Heaven-Defying Road may also yield to the authority of the heavens.

The truly terrifying individuals among diviners belong to a special category. They consider themselves as envoys of the heavens and are fanatically devoted to the heavens. They believe that other diviners, who have not received the recognition of the heavens, are disrespecting the heavens by casually peering into the mysteries of the heavens. This disrespect can bring terrifying calamities that affect all beings in the world.

Therefore, they hunt down other diviners relentlessly. They almost always try to completely kill anyone they come across.

These diviners are considered madmen by other diviners and are the common enemies of the diviner community. They are almost universally hated and feared.
