Chapter 993 Reaction
Everyone withdrew and returned to the mountain gate and cave.
Some of them would directly close the mountain gate and cave residence as soon as they returned, and would not allow their disciples to go out, only allowing them to meditate and practice in seclusion inside the mountain gate.
Some strictly instructed their disciples to go out less as much as possible to avoid conflicts with the people from Shangzhangtian.
Immortal Lord Yuanyou is an official of the Great Savage Sea Immortal Court, so it is not easy for him to close the mountain gate. However, his style is completely different from that of previous years. He basically no longer sends people to patrol the Great Savage Sea, and the entire Immortal Lord's Palace is almost non-existent.
The news that Wujimen and the sects that had the closest ties to Wujimen had retreated completely spread quickly.
The entire Savage Continent was in uproar.
They originally thought that Wuji Sect was rising like a comet, a super-class Taoist force with great strength, and with the support of Rou Zhaotian behind it. They would certainly not be willing to be sealed off in the Great Savage Sea. Even if they knew they could not win, they would definitely break out from all sides and set off a bloody storm in the Great Savage Sea.
Unexpectedly, before any real conflict broke out between the two sides, Wujimen immediately chose to shrink its head.
"During the opening ceremony, the head of Wuji Sect was so tough that he didn't even dare to give face to Yuwen Zun. I thought that Yuwen Zun would send his capable general Leng Rui to block the Great Savage Sea. He would definitely get angry and send his disciples to fight Leng Rui. But I didn't expect that Qin Ziling was just stubborn. Once Yuwen Zun got serious, he would be scared and dare not make a move ."
"Yeah, I never expected that after all, he is a super-class Taoist immortal. After being sealed off from the mountain gate, he actually didn't even have any temper. It's really shocking."
"You can't say that. The Fire Nation was so powerful back then. Didn't Zhang Tian and Yong Tian destroy it easily? Although Wuji Sect is a super-class Taoist force , how can it compare with the Fire Nation back then? Now that Master Yuwen wants to blockade the Great Savage Sea, if Wuji Sect does not retreat and takes a tough stance, it will end up like the Fire Nation back then. In this situation, what else can Wuji Sect do except retreat!"
“Hmph, if I had known this would happen, I wouldn’t have done it in the first place! Since you knew that Shang Zhangtian was so powerful, you shouldn’t have tried to show off at the mountain gate opening ceremony!”
"How can this be blamed on Wuji Sect? The grand ceremony of opening the mountain gate is so important, but Master Yuwen insisted on humiliating Wuji Sect in the ceremony. In front of so many people, Sect Leader Qin, as a super-class Taoist immortal, must have tried to defend himself."
"Haha, what about now? I still say the same thing, if you don't have that kind of strength, just keep your head down and don't try to be brave!"
"You can't tell right from wrong!"
"Strength is truth!"
“…”
For a time, there were many different opinions in the Savage Continent.
It's just that when the wall falls, everyone pushes it.
At that time, Wujimen rose like a comet and became the third largest super force in Savage Continent. I don't know how many Taoist immortals from Savage Continent came to visit and ask questions, and how many people praised Wujimen and wanted to have a relationship with it.
Now, when most people saw that Wujimen was sealed in the Great Savage Sea, they felt like a salted fish that could never turn over. Everyone started talking about Wujimen overestimating its own capabilities, as if the tragic outcome today was all Wujimen’s own fault and had nothing to do with Zhang Tian’s arrogance and bullying of the weak.
Even many immortals in the Great Savage Sea who had heard the teachings of Wuji Sect and received favors from it, seeing Wuji Sect's retreat, began to blame Wuji Sect gradually, believing that it was Wuji Sect that had implicated them and caused them to be trapped in the Great Savage Sea.
Later on, some people simply went to pay a visit to Shang Zhangtian's people and distanced themselves from Wujimen.
Due to the rules of the Immortal Court, Yuwen Qi could not do anything too extreme, so he did not take the initiative to attack the Great Savage Sea, but only blocked the Great Savage Sea. His purpose was to cut off the Wuji Sect's way out and make Wuji Sect deserted by its friends and relatives.
As a result, gradually Wujimen not only failed to expand outward, with no new forces joining, but also the original people left one after another, and it completely "dried up" and died.
Therefore, as soon as the various parties in the Great Savage Sea made their positions clear and distanced themselves from the Wuji Sect, Leng Rui not only did not make things difficult for them, but also gave them some small favors.
As a result, more people began to distance themselves from the Wuji Sect. Even some Taoist forces in the Great Barbarian South Sea, where the Wuji Sect's base was located, chose to distance themselves from the Wuji Sect, for fear that they would be implicated when Shang Zhangtian destroyed the Wuji Sect one day.
Wujimen did not react at all to the departure of various forces from the Great Savage Sea.
The foggy sea where the Mirage Dragon Mountain is located is shrouded in thick fog all day long. It is extremely quiet, as if it is a dead place.
The Dayin Sect, the Seven Star Palace, the Red Fire Sect, as well as the Taishi Family and the Xu Family of the Great Barbarian West Sea, and other sects and forces that have the closest ties with the Wuji Sect, all closed their mountain gates and showed no reaction.
These powerful forces completely retreated, the Immortal Lord Palace did not intervene, and with the instigation and secret cultivation of Shang Zhangtian's power behind them, the Great Savage Sea began to become chaotic and disorderly, with various forces fighting and vying with each other every day.
Immortal King's Palace.
Immortal King Saint Lou and Emperor Mou Tian were drinking alone.
"Yuwen Qi has gone too far. Doesn't the Immortal Emperor have any response?" Emperor Mou Tian said.
"Even Qinghan didn't show up this time, so why would the Immortal Emperor be in a hurry to express his opinion? Let's just wait and see what happens!" said the Immortal King Shenglou.
"That's right. Qin Ziling had disputes with others several times, and Qinghan intervened. Now there is no movement from Rou Zhaotian, so why would the Immortal Emperor be in a hurry to express his position?" Emperor Mou Tian sighed.
"This is a different time. The previous times it was Yong Tian, but this time it's Shang Zhang Tian. Moreover, Yuwen Qi was so powerful when he made his move. It is obvious that he wants to suppress Wujimen completely. Even Rouzhaotian dare not step forward rashly. Unless Wujimen can show the strength to compete with Yuwen Qi's men, then not only will Rouzhaotian come forward to uphold justice, but the Immortal Emperor will most likely also come forward." said the Immortal King Shenglou.
"How is that possible? Yuwen Qi has been practicing Taoism for much longer than you and me. He is almost at the level of a half-master. He has a profound foundation and many powerful men under his command. Qin Ziling has only just risen to prominence. Even Jin Qing was given to him by Rou Zhaotian. How can his men compete with Yuwen Qi's men?" Emperor Mou Tian shook his head.
“If not, then neither Rouzhaotian nor Xianting will be able to show up. Even if they do, it will be of no help.” Immortal King Shenglou sighed.
"That's true. A blacksmith must have strong tools himself! If Qin Ziling's men could compete with Yuwen Qi's men, Rou Zhaotian and Xianting would be able to step in to maintain the rules and justice, preventing men other than Yuwen Qi from going into battle casually. But now, Qin Ziling's men can't even compete with Yuwen Qi's men. What's the point of them coming forward to talk about it?" Emperor Mou Tian nodded.
“After all the talk, the bad thing is that Qin Ziling inherited a part of the Fire Nation’s Taoist tradition, and he himself is a super-class Taoist immortal, and he has Rou Zhaotian’s support behind him, so Shang Zhangtian must suppress him completely, so as not to raise a tiger to cause trouble.” said the Immortal King Sheng Lou.
"Hmph, I think this is just one of the reasons. Another important reason is that Shangzhang Daozun has been low-key and silent for too long. He is unwilling to be lonely, so he wants to use Wuji Sect to crack down on some forces from all sides and re-establish his former prestige!" Emperor Mou Tian sneered.
Upon hearing this, Immortal King Sheng Lou fell silent, with a hint of worry in his eyes.
"Also, I heard that recently many Taoist immortals who practice the earth-based avenue have sensed that there are changes in the avenue. There have also been many strange phenomena appearing in Yongtian. It is very likely that a Taoist master will reappear in Yongtian." Emperor Mou Tian said.
"It seems that Brother Mou Tian is well-informed!" Immortal King Saint Lou looked up at Emperor Mou Tian and said with a wry smile.
