Chapter 260 - 12 Jun Wuji, I Know Your Big Secret (4700 words, please subscribe)

"It's just that Founding Artefact of the Sect..."

Lin Yuan had a slightly grave expression.

Up to now, Lin Yuan had encountered the Taihao Immortal Instruments twice.

The first time was during the grand ceremony of the Ethereal Void, where Lin Yuan and his parents went to Mount Morality Immortal to congratulate Mu Qingliu.

During that period, Lin Yuan's Yang Spirit had annihilated the forces of the Black Gauze Archipelago, causing the plans of the Daode Immortal Sect to fail, which infuriated Mu Qingliu, who directly activated the Taihao Immortal Instrument and descended in incarnation upon the Eastern Sea Islands.

The second time was not long ago when Lin Yuan, using his Yin God, battled with an incarnation of the mirror light for a while and felt the true power of the Taihao Immortal Mirror.

Through these two encounters...

Lin Yuan determined that the tier of Taihao Immortal Realm must surpass the Refining Void Period.

That is, above the Refining Void Period, a treasure of the Unity Path Stage.

The Unity Path Stage... had already surpassed the limits of this world.

Only in the legendary 'Spirit Realm' did such mighty beings exist.

"Spirit Realm..."

Lin Yuan's expression sank into brief contemplation.

There were rumors that the Daode Immortal Sect holds the 'Ascension Platform' that leads from this world to the Spirit Realm.

Successive Immortal Sect Leaders, after managing the Daode Immortal Sect for ten to twenty thousand years, would disappear without a trace, precisely through the 'Ascension Platform' to the fabled Spirit Realm.

Of course, such a claim had no basis and probably only the Immortal Sect Leader of the Daode Immortal Sect knew the truth.

Perhaps the Refinement Void Ghost King of the Ghost Palace of Netherworld, the Lord of the Blood Demon of the Blood Demon Sea, and the Demon Saint of the Demon Saint's Nest also knew something.

"It's irrelevant."

"With just another two hundred years to cultivate to the peak of the Sixth Rank, or even break through to the Seventh Rank, no secrets would be secrets before me."

Lin Yuan shook his head slightly.

Now, he needed not pry into the secrets of the 'Spirit Realm' or 'Ascension'.

There was no significance in doing so.

It was better to focus all his time on cultivation.

First to become invincible under the heavens, then see.

...

Daode Immortal Sect.

Sect Master Mu Qingliu sat aloft.

Mu Mengting knelt below, his face pale and his expression filled with fear.

He had never thought that after using the treasured Symbol Talisman of the Ethereal Refinement Stage from the Mu Family's collection, he still failed to kill Jun Dongjin.

Not only had he failed to kill him, but the Sect Master noticed it immediately.

Now, having expended an extremely precious Symbol Talisman of the Ethereal Refinement Stage and Jun Dongjin not being dead meant that he, Mu Mengting, was not the sole candidate for the succession of the Immortal Sect.

Mu Qingliu had other options, such as reusing Jun Dongjin.

If that were the case, it would mean that Mu Mengting was completely out of favor with the Sect Master.

"Do you know where you went wrong?"

Mu Qingliu looked at Mu Mengting, his eyes showing disappointment.

He had not expected Mu Mengting to lack such resolution and utterly devoid of tolerance.

"Sect Master, I should not have acted against a fellow sect member; I shouldn't have acted against Jun Dongjin," Mu Mengting immediately admitted his mistake.

Since Mu Qingliu had called him aside alone and personally mentioned the matter, Mu Mengting realized that his antics could not have gone undetected.

If that was the case.

It was better to openly admit his wrongdoing.

Perhaps there was still a chance for things to turn around.

After all, his relationship with Mu Qingliu was far from being as simple as that of a Sect Master and a disciple.

"Incorrect."

"You erred in that you acted too soon."

"And too hastily."

Mu Qingliu looked at Mu Mengting and spoke indifferently.

When he took over as the leader of the Immortal Sect, he too had used some tactics, so Mu Mengting's preemptive actions to eliminate competitors were not uncommon; it was what Mu Qingliu had left over from his own strategies.

However.

Such actions required restraint.

With Jun Dongjin being transferred away from Mount Morality Immortal and distanced from the epicenter of power—his abilities being decent and his distinction between public and private affairs clear—it was far more useful to let him live than to have him dead.

"Ah?"

Mu Mengting looked baffled.

He originally thought that the Sect Master would chastise his actions, but instead, it seemed that the Sect Master thought he had been too hasty.

"When you reach the Refining Void Period, you will realize how laughable those former struggles were—be it Jun Dongjin or anyone else; they are all pawns in your hands. Killing them is like weakening your own power," Mu Qingliu said calmly.

This was also his greatest realization after stepping into the Refining Void Period.

From the perspective of an Ancient Saint, how ridiculous were some past actions? Having absolute power rendered everything subordinate.

"I..."

Mu Mengting's eyes widened.

When Mu Qingliu mentioned 'when you reach the Refining Void Period,' Mu Mengting trembled.

What did the Sect Master mean?

What was this about stepping into the Refining Void Period?

"The order to transfer Dongjin to Vast Cliff Mountain, could you not discern that I had already chosen you as the next Sect Master?" Mu Qingliu said blandly.

"Sect Master..."

Mu Qingliu was extremely agitated in his mind.

Indeed.

When Jun Dongjin received the transfer order.

He had indeed thought that Jun Dongjin had been eliminated from the list of candidates for Sect Master.

But Mu Mengting could only speculate, never sure whether his thoughts were true or false.

What if Jun Dongjin was only being sent away for a while and came back soon?

Thus.

For the sake of certainty, Mu Mengting decided to take a risky move.

From his high seat, Mu Qingliu looked at Mu Mengting, whose emotions were overflowing, and sighed internally again.

Mu Mengting really was not as good as Jun Dongjin.

But who could blame Mu Mengting for being his offspring?

Actually.

With the centuries-old foundation of the Daode Immortal Sect.

It made little difference who became the Sect Master.

Even if Jun Dongjin became the Sect Master, he wouldn't be able to flatten the Blood Demon Sea, Nether Palace, or Demon Saint's Nest.

Even if Mu Mengting was somewhat inferior, becoming the Sect Master wouldn't mean a significant reduction in the Daode Immortal Sect's power.

The strong foundation of the Daode Immortal Sect persisted.

Even if a pig became the Sect Master, as long as he possessed the cultivation of the Refining Void Period and held the Taihao Immortal Mirror, he could still slaughter widely.
