Chapter 543 - 245: Spirit Seed News Reemerges_2
Several Qi Refining Cultivators looked bewildered, clearly unaware of the Spirit Realm and Spirit Seed affair.
Jia Yuchang looked at Nie Guanghai with a smile and asked:
"Fellow Daoist Nie, where did you hear this news?"
"Actually, many people in Hong Lake City are already talking about it," Nie Guanghai chuckled, "I also heard that the Protector from our Profound Yin Sect had already clashed once with a Golden Core Late Stage Cultivator from the Daluo Sect of the Cloud Peak Alliance.
Everyone is guessing whether the place where they fought is where the Spirit Realm is forming.
This afternoon, many Loose Cultivators rushed there, but nothing much was discovered."
At this point, Nie Guanghai hesitated for a moment, but continued:
"I also heard that at the time, Protector You Jing was being chased by the people of the Daluo Sect and had even lost an arm.
Later, when the Golden Core Cultivators on both sides saw that they couldn’t do anything to each other, and with the appearance of people from the Celestial Extreme Alliance, they decided to stop.
But all three factions immediately arranged for quite a few people at the Hong Lake Entrance."
After finishing, Nie Guanghai didn’t forget to ask Jia Yuchang again:
"Brother Jia, do you know if these rumors are true?"
Jia Yuchang did not directly answer Nie Guanghai. Instead, he glanced at him and said lightly:
"Matters concerning the Protectors and within the Sect, it’s best not to ask too much.
This is Hong Lake City; if it were within the Sect and you dared to wag your tongue like this, heh..."
Jia Yuchang did not finish, but his final cold laugh sent a chill down people’s spines.
Hearing this, Nie Guanghai immediately wore an embarrassed expression, hurriedly shut his mouth, and dared not speak further.
The others naturally wouldn’t speak up again either, and various expressions appeared on their faces.
At this moment, Chu Ning wore a very surprised expression.
In fact, he was indeed quite shocked in his heart.
Chu Ning hadn’t expected to hear news about Spirit Seeds again after more than twenty years.
Previously, during his Foundation Establishment on the Thousand Lakes and Thousand Islands, Chu Ning vaguely sensed the aura of the Wood Spirit Seed.
That feeling told him that although the Wood Spirit Seed escaped back then, it still remained on the East Saint Continent.
And now, news related to the Spirit Realm and Spirit Seeds had appeared on the Western Alliance Continent, so it’s likely not the Wood Spirit Seed.
According to the classics he had found, there is only one Spirit Seed per attribute.
Even Spirit Seeds of different attributes rarely appear at the same time in a short period.
It usually takes hundreds or even several hundred years.
Yet it’s been only a little over twenty years, and news of Spirit Seeds has emerged again.
Even if it takes another twenty years or so for the Spirit Realm to finally form and Spirit Seeds to manifest, as Nie Guanghai suggested.
The interval is merely forty or fifty years.
Of course, this is just Nie Guanghai’s word, not necessarily true.
However, the information Nie Guanghai provided about the clash between the Profound Yin Sect and Daluo Sect cultivators seems somewhat credible.
After Chu Ning sensed Ao Langtian back then, he immediately used the Forbidden God Technique to block detection.
But it seems that You Jing didn’t have such a method, so being chased by Ao Langtian is understandable.
As for the later arrival of Profound Yin Sect cultivators, it should be due to You Jing calling for help.
As for why You Jing didn’t admit his arm was cut off by a Foundation Establishment Late Stage Cultivator, but attributed it to Ao Langtian from the Daluo Sect...
"Could it be that he doesn’t want others to know he was defeated by a Foundation Establishment Late Stage Cultivator?"
Thinking of You Jing’s proud demeanor, Chu Ning had some speculations.
At the same time, he secretly pondered.
"This place is ultimately a place of trouble; once the situation is roughly understood, it’s better to leave early."
With that in mind, Chu Ning, though not speaking much, occasionally chatted with other cultivators and heard some information.
The next day, Chu Ning walked around outside the courtyard.
From the information gathered, it seemed that the sects from the Demon Alliance and Celestial Extreme Alliance had arrived in numbers.
However, the reasons for the lack of support from other sects for the Cloud Peak Alliance were unclear.
Another day passed, and it was still heard that only the Daluo Sect cultivators were on the outskirts.
As a result, both the Profound Yin Sect within the Demon Alliance and the Celestial Extreme Alliance began pushing toward Hong Lake City, controlling various regions at the Hong Lake Entrance, and driving out numerous forces.
Meanwhile, the Daluo Sect from the Cloud Peak Alliance showed much less activity.
Another day passed, and Chu Ning finally received news that several sects from the Cloud Peak Alliance had come to support the Daluo Sect.
And the rumor that a Spirit Realm might be born and a Spirit Seed might appear at the Hong Lake Entrance became even more widespread.
It was heard that all three parties seemingly had Nascent Soul Cultivators arrive, making it incredibly difficult for cultivators to pass in and out of the Hong Lake Entrance.
However, the control zones of the three sides have not yet intersected, so no direct conflict has arisen.
In the blink of an eye, Chu Ning had stayed in the courtyard for three days.
It was once more his turn to be on night duty.
The number of Escape Lights in the evenings increased significantly during these two days, and among them were some extremely powerful auras, so much so that Chu Ning dared not casually extend his Divine Sense.
However, it seemed that since Hong Lake City wasn’t the birthplace of the Spirit Realm, no forces came specifically to occupy Hong Lake City.
Even High Tier Cultivators rarely appeared.
As for this unremarkable courtyard in the city, naturally, it attracted little attention.
So, although a few were on night duty, they had little to do and were all meditating and cultivating individually.
