Chapter 1942: Phenomenon
Translator: Lordbluefire Editor: Lordbluefire
The news about the matters that happened in the Desolate Region were extremely terrifying but it didn’t cause too much commotion. Because, right now, there weren’t any hegemonic powers governing the Desolate Region and an even more important matter that was unprecedented that would affect the entire Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms was happening.
The western world wanted to interfere in matters of the Heaven Vault. It was said that they have successfully convinced the Qiankun Sect and Nine Heavens Mystical Palace to pull out from the Qin Heavenly Divine Sect.
The Buddhist Sect personally sent people to the two hegemonic powers. Given their strength, even the powerful Qiankun Sect and Nine Heavens Mystical Palace had to give them some face.
Because of these rumors, the atmosphere in the Qin Heavenly Divine Sect became somewhat subdued.
Qin Wentian didn’t question the Qiankun Sect Leader or Mystical Maiden. If they really made their choices, Qin Wentian wouldn’t hate them for it. After all, they might be allies but their relationship wasn’t as solid as one would imagine.
Today, the Qiankun Sect Leader and Mystical Maiden arrived at Qin Wentian’s side. Qin Wentian naturally welcomed them warmly.
“Sect Leader, Nine Heavens Fairy.” Qin Wentian smiled.
“Qin Wentian, we don’t wish to beat around the bush, I’ll tell you directly that the western world wants us to pull out from this alliance that is the Qin Heavenly Divine Sect.” The Qiankun Sect Leader went straight to the point.
“Did Sect Leader agree to it?” Qin Wentian asked.
“My master has already agreed. The western world said that after the Buddhist Sect gains control, they would still allow the core members of my Qiankun Sect to cultivate in the Heaven Vault.” The Qiankun Sect Leader spoke, staring at Qin Wentian.
However, he only saw that Qin Wentian was incomparably calm. In fact, there was even a faint smile on his face. Qin Wentian replied, “It is indeed easy to make such a choice. I don’t wish to try and persuade you since this is a decision made by the old sect leader. Did fairy make the same choice too?”
The Nine Heavens Mystical Maiden was extremely beautiful, just a glance at her was sufficient to cause ordinary men to lose themselves in her beauty. Her beautiful eyes stared at Qin Wentian as she nodded her head lightly. When facing such an immensely powerful entity that is the western world, she didn’t have any better choice. If she continued to ally with Qin Wentian, the western world and the other hegemonic powers of the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms would surely target her.
In the past, no one dared to do anything to their two powers. But now, the western world wanted to interfere. The scales were instantly unbalanced. The Qin Heavenly Divine Sect was in an extremely unfavorable position.
“However, I can guarantee that the Nine Heavens Mystical Palace won’t act against the Qin Heavenly Divine Sect.” The Mystical Maiden spoke.
“My Qiankun Sect won’t as well.” The Qiankun Sect Leader nodded.
“Many thanks to you two seniors.” Qin Wentian spoke with gratitude. Although he had lost two allies, at the very least, they weren’t enemies.
“You don’t hate us?” The beautiful eyes of the Nine Heavens Mystical Maiden stared at Qin Wentian as she asked.
“Seniors, both of you are rulers of a faction, you naturally have to make the correct choice for your faction. Back then, it was precisely because of so that you chose to join me in alliance. And now, it’s also normal for you to pull out. There’s no hatred to speak of. As long as we are not enemies, we can part as graciously as we joined together before.” Qin Wentian spoke in a free and at ease manner.
“Straight-forward indeed. It’s a pity, I don’t know if we would still have the chance to drink with you in the future.” The Qiankun Sect Leader laughed.
“If Sect Leader is keen on drinking, you can come and look for me anytime.” Qin Wentian smiled. The Qiankun Sect Leader nodded his head. After that, both of them stood up and bid their farewell.
Qin Wentian had a contemplative look on his face when he saw their leaving backs. A white-robed maiden then walked in as unhappiness flashed in her eyes.
“Big Brother Qin, do you really not mind?” Purgatory’s eyes gleamed with a cold light as she spoke.
“I’m naturally willing to treat them as allies. But before the face of benefits, it’s also normal that they don’t wish to treat me as friends. After all, this would implicate their entire sect. Their actions are understandable.” Qin Wentian casually spoke.
“But can they really confirm that the western world would be able to seize the Heaven Vault if they acted?” Jun Mengchen also walked in. Clearly, what happened earlier was already heard by them. Qin Wentian’s close friends all stayed in the same area as him, they would frequently come over to find him.
“The strength of the western world plus the strength of the other hegemonic powers in the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms is something that the Qin Heavenly Divine Sect cannot compare to.” Qin Wentian spoke.
“In the future, if the western world fails to take control of the Heaven Vault, I wonder what the Qiankun Sect Leader and Mystical Maiden would think. Senior brother, at that time you mustn’t be soft-hearted. Don’t allow them to enter the Heaven Vault for cultivation ever again.”
“Also, those hypocritical monks that wear the masks of mercy don’t seem to be any different from the Jiang Clan of our Azure Mystic Immortal Realms. Seems like only the monks from the Askheart Temple can be considered eminent reverends.” Jun Mengchen’s voice was filled with unhappiness.
“Do you think that unreliable fellow Bujie is an eminent reverend?” A strange look appeared on Qin Wentian’s face as he started to laugh. Upon thinking about Bujie, Jun Mengchen’s face was filled with black lines. Indeed, Bujie doesn’t even seem like a monk at all.
“Hahaha.” Qin Wentian laughed. The so-called buddhist path was just a path of cultivation where the people on it cultivates a certain energy type. People of the world have different talents and the paths they walk naturally would differ from each other. The Buddhist Sect was simply such a path, in truth, there was no difference between it and the other paths of cultivation.
The Qiankun Sect and Nine Heavens Mystical Palace moved their experts out from the Qin heavenly Divine Sect. A storm was about to land, the discussion in the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms about this matter was extremely intense. Everyone felt that right now, the Qin Heavenly Divine Sect only existed in name but they are in truth, already dead. Although no battles erupted yet, but the simple fact that the western world was acting, there was no suspense that the Qin Heavenly Divine Sect would collapse.
Seems like that majestic divine sect above the Boundless Sea Region was created for nothing. Most probably, Qin Wentian and his allies would have to evacuate into the Heaven Vault to hide for their lives.
Not only for the outside world, even within the Qin Heavenly Divine Sect, many people felt fear and panic.
Ever since the Qin Heavenly Divine Sect was established, many powers in the Heaven Region wanted to become their vassals, and there were many experts who joined. But now that the Qin Heavenly Divine Sect was encountering danger, the true sentiments of many people were instantly revealed.
Qin Wentian gathered Qi Yu, the Southern Phoenix Matriarch, Bai Qin and the other people with important statuses. He told them to make use of this chance to do an overhaul, restructuring their factions and the vassals attached to them, kicking away those unfaithful ones. Everyone naturally understood what to do, they immediately acted and informed the vassals attached to them saying that the Qin Heavenly Divine Sect would soon be in a crisis. If people wanted to leave now, the divine sect would understand and wouldn’t stop them.
Many people immediately left the Divine Sect. The Qin Heavenly Divine Sect had just been established not long ago but because of the forceful interference by the western world, they were now in a situation where there’s internal trouble and outside aggression.
After that, the western world sent word to the Qin Heavenly Divine Sect telling them to relocate, leaving the Boundless Sea Region. Qin Wentian has to give up control of the Heaven Vault, including the method of controlling it. The experts of the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms wouldn’t make things difficult for the Qin Heavenly Divine Sect, the divine sect would still be allowed to exist in other locations. The Buddhist Sect was merciful, they wouldn’t harm the innocent.
When this news circulated out, the gazes of the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms turned to the Heaven Vault again. The western world was telling Qin Wentian to move. They said they were merciful and wouldn’t harm the innocent. But the requirement was that Qin Wentian had to hand the Heaven Vault over. This was the root of everything.
In the Divine Sect, after Qin Wentian’s friends learned of this, all of them were incomparably enraged. They cursed the western world for being bald donkeys due to their shamelessness.
The buddhist sect was merciful? Handing over the Heaven Vault and relocating? How ridiculous. The moment there’s no Heaven Vault, would the other hegemonic powers of the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms spare Qin Wentian and his group? The Buddhist Sect could be merciful because they basically didn’t even need to act, others would take the chance to settle everything with Qin Wentian. They could simply sit in their Pureland of Bliss and issue orders.
The Qin Heavenly Divine Sect didn’t reply. But not replying was already considered a reply. Undoubtedly, Qin Wentian has rejected.
The majority of people in the Qin Heavenly Divine Sect all entered the Heaven Vault, preparing to face anything that might happen. It seemed that the situation would soon revert back to the situation in the past. But right now, Qin Wentian’s opponent would be unprecedentedly powerful, stronger than any he has ever faced before.
At the seashore, the sea breeze was intense, causing the waves to churn wildly. In the air, a group of figures suddenly appeared. Their auras were terrifying, and they were all the leading characters of a hegemonic power.
“They are here.” Someone spoke. These people were from the Thunder Clan. Their purpose here was naturally for the Qin Heavenly Divine Sect.
And at this moment, another group of experts arrived. The man in the lead had a cold look on his face and was wielding a halberd.
“Qin Zheng from the Qin Clan. He is colder than before. Heaven’s Son Qin Dangtian isn’t here though. Could it be that he is still cultivating in some secret realms?” Someone mumbled. Staring up at the sky. The Qin Clan had remained low profile for many years. But the moment they appeared, they still targeted Qin Wentian.
More and more experts gathered here at the Boundless Sea Region like in tacit agreement. All of them then waited, and when everyone they were waiting for was here, they stepped out together, flying towards the Divine Sect above the Boundless Sea Region.
“No one from the western world came. It seems that they only need to give the order, they don’t even need to show themselves. This is their confidence. But if the Heaven Vault was truly captured, the Buddhist Sect would be the one controlling it. This is the agreement the hegemonic powers came to.
At the area where the sea and sky meet, Qin Wentian stood there, calmly staring at the experts who came.
Those experts stopped not far away from him. Both parties didn’t speak, the silence was so loud that it was terrifying.
Qin Zheng and his wife glared at Qin Wentian, the hatred in their eyes was like a burning fire. Qin Wentian caused the Qin Clan to decline, he wrecked their son’s wedding and destroyed almost half of the foundation of the Qin Clan.
The raging wind whistled as the waves frenziedly churned, slapping on the shore.
The violent airflows clashed in the air, it was like a destructive might was brewing in the midst of this tense atmosphere.
At this moment, black clouds suddenly appeared in the sky. These black clouds caused the people below to feel a wave of pressure, the color of the clouds were that of deathly stillness and they were growing increasingly blacker.
“Mhm?” Everyone inclined their heads as a strange look appeared on their faces. The various experts of the hegemonic powers also frowned. What was going on. What were these black clouds?
More and more black clouds gathered, it felt like hell has arrived in the sky above everyone. Even for heavenly deities, they felt an intense pressure. Even breathing was difficult under the pressure exuded by the black clouds.
“Who is it that came?” A heavenly deity spoke, his voice ringing out thunderously. The violent sound waves wanted to shatter the black clouds in the air but the black clouds weren’t affected at all.
Qin Wentian also had a strange look on his face as he stared up at the sky. What was going on?
It seemed that both parties had no idea about the origin of these black clouds.
The black clouds continued multiplying, covering the entire sky, blotting out the sun. At this moment, the clouds churned as a scene suddenly manifested. The scene showed a world, an entire world of nothingness, a world dominated by deathly stillness!
