Chapter 306: Shixian Sect Mystery

Meanwhile, in the Moongazer Serpent Realm at Shixian Sect, a conversation was going on.
“Senior brothers, do you think the elders have gone crazy? As devil cultivators, they actually dare to go directly to the territory of the righteous way sects. Despite how near the territory is, how can they guarantee that the immortals from the Upper Realm won’t treat them as demons and get rid of them?”
“Sigh, I’m not sure about this. This time, a few elders led a team to the Qingyun Sect. They said that there were immortals present and that hose hypocritical righteous way cultivators definitely wouldn’t dare to make a move. Moreover, our Shixian Sect has recently turned over a new leaf. The disciples in the sect rarely do immoral things like digging up people’s ancestral graves.”
“In my opinion, the elders are too concerned with being immortals. The Upper Realm is good, but no matter how we look at it, we are not on the same cultivation path as those righteous way cultivators. Moreover, those righteous way cultivators can enter the Qingyun Sect because they’re most likely on the same path as those guys from the Qingyun Sect. Even if we have the potential to become immortals, they probably aren’t interested in cultivators from the Shixian Sect.”
“I think so too. If 1 had known earlier, 1 wouldn’t have joined this sect recklessly. What do you think if 1 abandon the sect now and transfer to the Qingyun Sect?”
“Shh, be careful with your words! Junior brother, your idea is very dangerous. We are all direct disciples of Shixian Sect now. Even if we want to change our cultivation techniques, we obviously can’t catch up with others. If the sect master knew what you were thinking, he might sacrifice you to the heavens.” Upon hearing that, an ordinary disciple of the Shixian Sect was immediately frightened. It was obvious that he did not want to be used by the sect master to worship the heavens.
“You’re right. The sect master has been getting stranger and stranger recently. He often calls his disciples to the blood pool, and those summoned senior brothers haven’t been spotted for a long time. Do you think they…”
“Be careful with your words. The sect master is under pressure from the righteous way sects, so he gave those disciples special treatment.”
“I know, I know.”
However, the Shixian Sect disciples didn’t notice that not far away from the three of them, a Paper Man was lying on a tree and eavesdropping on their conversation.
io kilometers away from the Shixian Sect mountain, Lu Yuan frowned after hearing their conversation.
Strange. According to the conversation between the three of them, the Shixian Sect should have sent many elders to the Qingyun Sect this time.
However, Lu Yuan remembered very clearly that the only devilish sects that dared to come to the Qingyun Sect this time were the Xueyang Sect and the Huanxi Sect.
Of the three devilish sects, Shixian Sect did not send a single person.
Why did they say that the elders of the Shixian Sect had all been sent to the Qingyun Sect?
Something must have happened that he didn’t know about.
Thinking of that, Lu Yuan felt that his operation to dig up the dragon bones this time might not be as smooth as he had imagined.
The entire Shixian Sect was built upon low-lying land. From the sky, it looked like a huge bowl.
Meanwhile, the location of the dragon bones was the entire Shixian Sect.
The dragon’s head was at the entrance, and most of the dragon’s body was buried underground. The other buildings in the Shixian Sect were built around the huge Apotheosis Stage dragon bone.
Lu Yuan knew that there would be a huge Apotheosis Stage dragon bone in the Shixian Sect and that piece of information was not considered a big secret in the entire cultivation world.
Any cultivator with a bit of general knowledge knew that news.
However, very few people would have any ideas about taking the dragon bones in the Shixian Sect.
If one wanted to take the dragon bone away, they would have to fight the entire Shixian Sect.
Before Lu Yuan, there were not many people or forces in the entire Lower Realm who had the confidence to claim that they could completely take down the Shixian Sect.
Shixian Sect had been established for more than io thousand years, and the entire dragon bone had long been forged into a part of the sect’s territory.
It was rumored that if the Shixian Sect was in danger of being wiped out, they could even revive the entire dragon bone in a short period of time, allowing the dragon bone to display the strength of a Nascent Soul Stage peak level cultivator.
Including the patriarch of the Shixian Sect, there were two Nascent Soul Stage cultivators in the entire Shixian Sect. It was undoubtedly very difficult to defeat them.
If possible, Lu Yuan actually wanted to come over with his main body.
However, because Lu Yuan wasn’t able to rope in Xu Ziyu and the others into helping him this time, Lu Yuan had no choice but to adopt Plan B, which was to use the power of the Moongazer Serpent Realm underworld.
If one wanted to use that power, one had to fulfill two conditions.
The first was to open the passageway between the two worlds, allowing a large number of underworld souls to come over in a short period of time.
The second condition was to set up the Corrupted Divine Soul Array around Shixian Sect.
In the World of Living, there was barely any corrupted divine soul power.
It was fine for ordinary souls to come to the World of Living for a short period of time. Once they fought for a long time, they were limited by the sparse amount of corrupted divine soul power and could not replenish it. Then, their strength would be greatly limited.
However, the Corrupted Divine Soul Array could allow the transmission of corrupted divine soul power from the underworld to the World of Living for a fixed duration.
Therefore, only by satisfying the two conditions at the same time could the underworld’s strength be maximized.
Whether it was opening the gates to the underworld or setting up the Corrupted Divine Soul Array, those were not things that Lu Yuan’s clone could do easily.
The former required a great being from the World of Living to use themself as a coordinate for the location of the door to the underworld.
The latter simply needed a large scale and enough spiritual energy to maintain the array.
For those reasons, Lu Yuan could only perform the actions with his main body.
Besides the two conditions mentioned above, Lu Yuan had another very important reason for going personally..
