Zhang Yan sent brother and sister Lin Yong away and did not embarrass each other again. At the same time, what the other party brought back was the goodwill from the Wild Sky Territory and their willingness to join the Pastoral Sect and become a member of the Haoxue Sect's alliance.
However, there is a premise that the agreement will not take effect until the evolution of the Wild Sky Domain is completed. At the same time, he hopes that the alliance will not disturb the Desolate Sky Territory again during this period, so that the Desolate Sky Territory will have a stable environment that integrates the major living forces of the entire world.
As for the future. Zhang Yan did not take seriously what Lin Yong promised in front of him.
For one, verbal promises mean nothing. Secondly, Lin Yong's identity is just a core disciple of Haoxue Sect, and there is still a big gap in status between being able to represent the entire sect and making promises to others. Another point is that the "goodwill" given by Haoxuemen is not so easy to accept, and Zhang Yan feels that many of them still need to be discussed.
To put it bluntly, Zhang Yan was faced with the same dilemma as when he first arrived in the Wild Sky Territory: lack of strength.
At the world level, the information Lin Yong said today should not be false. Because this kind of thing cannot be hidden from anyone, once the desolate sky domain evolves completely, it will be easy to find out whether there is a "chaos sect". In front of the Chaos Sect, there is no doubt that the creatures in the Wild Sky Domain are far apart in strength, and the gap is even greater than when they faced the Three-Eyed Clan before. It is very possible that there is no comparability at all.
And what about Zhang Yan himself?
Although they have become immortals, just look at Lin Yong's attitude towards immortals and you will know that immortals are not rare among the so-called "Pastoral Sect", and the same is true among the "Chaos Sect".
The human fairyland will definitely not be the end point of the upper-level power of the great forces between the two worlds. Will it be an earthly fairyland? Or paradise? Or is it Golden Immortal or a higher strength?
unknown.
But what Zhang Yan knows is that the reason why the Pastoral Sect has such "good intentions" to win over the Wild Sky Territory is not only because the Wild Sky Territory can enhance the strength of the Pastoral Sect. As the saying goes, mosquitoes are still meat no matter how small they are. What's more important is the price that the creatures in the wilderness have to pay in order to obtain shelter.
This is like when Zhang Yan used the ghost-catching bell in Nanyuan Kingdom to collect ghosts in exchange for meritorious spiritual energy, and at the same time obtained a large amount of spiritual stone resources from Nanyuan Kingdom. And what Nanyuan Kingdom got was effective means of combating ghosts in various places to protect the peace of the whole country. The spirit stone is the price paid by Nanyuan Kingdom to Zhang Yan.
To put it bluntly, it is protection money.
All kinds of resources are definitely indispensable. And what is really attractive to the other party is definitely not the things that are currently available in the Desolate Sky Territory. Otherwise, Lin Yongyong would not say that in the past, there was plundering of the incomplete world, but later he felt that it was "not cost-effective" so he allowed the world to grow, and then harvested it after it evolved completely. This also shows that there will be huge changes after the Wild Sky Domain evolves itself completely. And the resources brought about by those changes are the real “big head”.
Zhang Yan can even say with certainty. If you want to obtain the asylum of the Pastoral Faction and escape the plunder of the Chaos Faction, you must hand over at least 60% or more of your resources. Because if you don't hand it over, you will be beaten and your life will be taken away. No choice.
Unless there is stronger power, there will be more room for bargaining.
But Zhang Yan knows his own affairs best. He has been in the Immortal Realm for more than 20 years now, and he is indeed making rapid progress when he talks about it, but the steps to see the next realm do not exist at all. Although the road ahead is clear, it is too far. Zhang Yan will no longer be able to leapfrog one realm after another in a short period of time as he did before.
And how long will it take for the Desolate Sky Domain to evolve to perfection? Do I need to experience the devouring of the world again?
Zhang Yan didn't know this. But we also know that this span will definitely not be ten or twenty years, but at least hundreds or even hundreds of years.
Looking further ahead, if it takes hundreds of years, Zhang Yan feels that he can at least take a step or two up to the human fairyland, right? But if it really wants to play a big role, Zhang Yan feels that he has to calm down and grasp the changes that will occur after the Huangtian Domain evolves completely.
Zhang Yan calculated in his mind that the "purple energy" mentioned in Taoist books would most likely appear at that time. Perhaps it is the latest opportunity for him to achieve a huge leap in his cultivation.
Before that, Zhang Yan really had no shortcuts this time.
Two days later.
The internal competition within the gate is over, and new chiefs of each generation have emerged, which means that the "powers" representing the various mountains in the gate have once again been sorted. The undercurrent at the feet of the disciples in the sect also has a new direction.
"Disciple, meet your master!"
Wang Nian and the others completed the competition and went to the cliff mountain together to seek a meeting. They reported the final results of the competition and some related situations to Zhang Yan.
Zhang Yan is not in a hurry to improve his disciple's cultivation. Even if the sky falls, it won't be their turn to lift it up. Rather than making rapid progress, Zhang Yan hopes that the disciples of Duoyashan will proceed steadily and try to make every step as solid as possible. Only in this way can the overall strength of the cliff mountain be steadily increased without appearing to be in limbo.
"The rewarded magic weapons are still too petty. I should just take out the few high-grade magic weapons I put in the arsenal. As rewards for each generation of chiefs, they also serve as tokens. As long as they are still chiefs for a day, the things can make them Take it for one day. In addition, supplement it with the rewards of elixirs and spiritual stones to push them up a bit.
As a role model, you must get enough benefits. At the same time, most of the competitive pressure must be absorbed. Do you know what I mean? "
Wang Nian and the others trembled in their hearts. They naturally understand what their master means. This is to roast the chief victor in the great competition on the fire! It is even said that there are now many disciples in Duya Mountain, and they are beginning to have sources other than Wang Nian and his three second-generation disciples. There is a tendency to follow the trend of opening new hills at the entrance of new halls.
In this case, set up a target. Will this add fuel to the fire?
This time, Wang Nian, who had a broad-minded and informal nature, couldn't hold his breath anymore. He was also the chief second-generation disciple. It was him who should have spoken out about these matters now, instead of waiting for Yang Rui and Liu Rui to speak.
"Master, I think that if this happens, the chiefs will be swarmed with pressure. It will also intensify the open and secret fights between the mountains. If it leaves a gap in the hearts of the disciples and causes internal friction, the gains will outweigh the losses. Master, please think twice. ." After saying that, Wang Nian knelt on the ground with his knees on the ground, not daring to raise his head.
Yang Rui and Liu Rui also knelt down and banged their heads on the ground, and together with Wang Nian begged Zhang Yan to take back the arrangement. They all felt that this would cause discord within the sect and undermine the unity among the disciples.
"Cultivation is all about following the will of God and practicing against it. There is always pressure. If you can sit in the position of chief, why can't you bear the pressure? Do as I say. Cliff Mountain needs some leaders who can withstand pressure and grow against the trend. Raise a flag."
