Chapter 196: Rebellion Against the Sacred Land of Lingxu
“What did this mean? Was the Sacred Land of Lingxu trying to cut off our sects’ path of survival!”
“They didn’t look at aptitude at all and wanted to build flying ships in every territory, constantly conducting spiritual root tests.”
“Then wouldn’t the annual tribute we paid have been for nothing.”
At this moment, the sects across the various regions under the jurisdiction of the Sacred Land of Lingxu had also received this message. All kinds of murmurs and stray talk were secretly cursing in anger.
They had never expected that the Sacred Land of Lingxu, as a sacred sect and great power, would actually compete with them for people with cultivation aptitude.
Originally, the entry requirements of the Sacred Land of Lingxu were extremely high. After spiritual root testing, they would basically only keep a few people.
These people would then choose to join ordinary sects. Now that the Sacred Land of Lingxu no longer maintained high requirements, it was equivalent to leaving them without even a sip of soup.
Although these local forces secretly tested spiritual roots and had taken in quite a few people with good spiritual roots,
Li Tianwei’s demand to establish teleportation arrays and spirit ships was telling all the ordinary sects in various regions that the Sacred Land of Lingxu was about to take direct control of all territories under its rule.
That also meant the Sacred Land of Lingxu would compete with those small sects for disciples with cultivation aptitude.
As for the resistance from the sects of various regions, Li Tianwei had already anticipated it long ago. When he thought about it, he did not even spend a few seconds considering it.
In his view, the Sacred Land of Lingxu was rotten, but some other cultivator forces were rotten to their very core.
Without doubt, it was precisely these local forces in various regions that were truly ruthless in their methods.
Because within a single region there existed all kinds of sects, competition between forces, various means, as well as rogue cultivators, in the eyes of these forces, the law of the jungle prevailed. Humans were not treated as humans, and cultivators were the truly supreme beings.
It was precisely because of this that they constantly exerted pressure on the mortals under their rule.
As for the stationed envoys of the Sacred Land of Lingxu, there was no need to say more. Once they arrived in a territory, the first batch to meet them would definitely be these forces.
The first thing they did was to push the stationed envoys to a position of supreme authority.
It could be said that these people had already formed a certain kind of ideology. Precisely because of this, they entrenched themselves in one place and continuously corrupted the entire cultivation world.
The so-called atmosphere of the law of the jungle, slaughter and struggle, and reverence for the strong was thus formed.
Therefore, after setting these changes in place, Li Tianwei clearly understood that the first batch to come and resist him would be all the first-rate and second-rate forces under the Sacred Land of Lingxu.
After receiving news that the Sacred Land of Lingxu was about to undergo reform, they were, as expected, furious.
On the other side, the Qingyuan-Yincang Sacred Sect also received the news and began fanning the flames, wishing to make the matter known to everyone.
With the publicity of the Qingyuan-Yincang Sacred Sect, almost all sects within the territory of the Sacred Land of Lingxu received this message.
The Three Sacred Lands knew Li Tianwei’s strength and wanted to use these people to probe Li Tianwei’s situation.
But the various forces under the rule of the Sacred Land of Lingxu were different. They did not have their tentacles extended deep into the Sacred Land of Lingxu, and they did not know that the great turmoil inside the Sacred Land of Lingxu had been caused by a single person.
One person killing more than ten Union Realm Ancestors—if they had known, they probably would not have dared to act like this.
They had not reached inside before, and now it was even more impossible.
Under the cleansing influence of Li Tianwei’s Scripture of Supreme Virtue and Radiant Purity, those disciples and cultivators were far beyond their ability to control.
Thus, the intelligence these local forces possessed was only that the Sacred Land of Lingxu had previously experienced great chaos, with more than ten Union Realm experts having died.
And it was precisely under such circumstances that the Sacred Land of Lingxu still carried out such reforms.
In the eyes of these local first-rate and second-rate forces, this situation was undoubtedly an opportunity.
The fall of more than ten Union Realm Ancestors would definitely have severely damaged the vitality of the Sacred Land of Lingxu.
Under the territory controlled by the Sacred Land of Lingxu, there were nearly ten thousand sects and cultivation families of all kinds.
Among them were several sects with Union Realm cultivators stationed within. In their view, the Sacred Land of Lingxu’s conduct was undoubtedly digging its own grave.
Quite a few forces had already begun contacting each other in secret.
Among them were the covert support of the Three Sacred Lands, and more importantly, the presence of Evil Demons.
That was right—Evil Demons.
Along with the disappearance of the Same-Origin Connection, basically all Evil Demons received an order during the final period, that was to eliminate the Sacred Land of Lingxu at all costs.
Now, these forces had secretly condensed into a single mass and could strike the Sacred Land of Lingxu with a heavy blow at any moment.
Of course, these matters were of no importance to the Sacred Land of Lingxu.
Li Tianwei currently had no time at all to pay attention to them. The first thing he did was to have all stationed envoys in various regions return to the Sacred Land of Lingxu.
At the same time, the disciples of the Sacred Land of Lingxu who had listened to his preaching were assigned to various regions to become new stationed envoys.
Those stationed envoys, however, did not know why the Sacred Land of Lingxu had ordered them to return.
On the other side, with the assistance of the three major forces and the secret alliance of Evil Demons,
the sects within the territory of the Sacred Land of Lingxu secretly communicated. With the Supreme Sect, the Three-Extremes Sect, and the Bright Delusion Sect—three forces with Union Realm cultivators—as leaders, together with more than two hundred other large and small sects, they formed a new force.
“Haoran Righteous Alliance”
For a time, the sects under the jurisdiction of the Sacred Land of Lingxu blocked the affairs Li Tianwei intended to implement, and some had even expelled the stationed envoys of the Sacred Land of Lingxu.
The speed was extremely fast, instantly spreading across the entire territory of the Sacred Land of Lingxu.
However, this Haoran Righteous Alliance merely expelled the disciples of the Sacred Land of Lingxu and did not kill them.
Within the Haoran Righteous Alliance.
Representatives from several hundred sects gathered together.
“All the stationed envoys have already been expelled.”
“The Sacred Land of Lingxu has not reacted, just as we expected.”
“There must definitely be major problems internally, so they needed replenishment, which is why they did this—”
Representatives from several hundred sects gathered together.
“All the stationed envoys have already been expelled.”
“The Sacred Land of Lingxu has not reacted, just as we expected.”
“Perhaps because internal strife caused excessive losses and they needed replenishment, they came up with this matter of not recognizing aptitude.”
“We have been suppressed by the Sacred Land of Lingxu for far too long.”
“Now, our Haoran Righteous Alliance will be the next Sacred Land of Lingxu. Rebel against them.”
A Union Realm cultivator looked at the gathered representatives of the Haoran Righteous Alliance and spoke loudly.
Under his words, the representatives of the other sects were also extremely excited.
In their view, without the Sacred Land of Lingxu, their sects would be able to obtain more resources and would no longer need to watch the Sacred Land of Lingxu’s expression.
