Immortality Through Array Formations-Chapter 1200 - 712 Junior Brother_2

Elder Master Xun’s expression turned grave again, as he was about to reprimand, but before the words came out, he suddenly paused.

He stared at Mo Hua for a long time, then frowned and asked:

"Your Divine Sense, has it... become a bit stronger?"

Mo Hua nodded timidly but modestly, "Yes, it’s gotten a little bit stronger, seventeen patterns..."

Elder Master Xun’s eyes widened slightly.

Seventeen patterns...

Foundation Establishment Early Stage, seventeen patterns...

Foundation Establishment Early Stage realm, with Divine Sense of Foundation Establishment Late Stage?!

Elder Master Xun fell silent, his mind as tumultuous as a sudden storm, at a loss for words for a long time.

"Elder Master?" Mo Hua said weakly.

Only then did Elder Master Xun come back to his senses, looking at Mo Hua with incredulity filling his heart.

After a moment, Elder Master Xun’s expression returned to normal and he said lightly:

"It’s nothing, you can go back now."

Mo Hua was taken aback.

Elder Master Xun waved his hand, no longer angry, and his voice softened a lot, "Go back to class."

"Oh..." Mo Hua was a bit puzzled, then bowed and said, "Then, disciple takes his leave."

"Hmm." Elder Master Xun nodded slightly.

Mo Hua left in a daze.

After Mo Hua left, Elder Master Xun pondered for a long time before slowly rising, using the Void Escape Skill to tear through the void and directly entering the back mountain.

In the back mountain, there was a shrine.

The shrine was solemn and magnificent, very imposing, with ancestral tablets of dark base and white patterns as well as portraits of all the past Taixu Ancestral Masters.

The white-haired Elder Master Xun offered incense with reverence.

But his hands, they could not stop trembling slightly.

From the simple incense burner, wispy blue smoke rose.

Elder Master Xun, his emotions surging, unable to calm down, his voice carrying a slight tremble, said:

"Blessings be upon our lineage..."

"Our Taixu Sect has truly encountered a great fortune!"

"The slim chance of survival within the enigma of the Heavenly secret... should indeed be embodied in this child!"

The incense smoke, like mist, ascended, enveloping the portraits of the lineage of the Taixu Sect, pure and enduring without end.

Elder Master Xun let out a long breath.

...

The next day, Elder Master Xun went to find the Taixu Sect Master.

The Taixu Sect Master had a dignified and kind manner, an extraordinary aura, specializing in cultivating character, with long and thick black hair.

He was of noble birth with his own heritage, and his forte was Swordsmanship, his cultivation was noteworthy, holding a special status within the Taixu Sect.

However, even the Taixu Sect Master looked somewhat grave at this moment.

Though he did not cultivate Divine Thought or understand divination, at his level of cultivation, he could vaguely sense the shifts and omens of Heavenly Secrets.

The peaceful years of the Taixu Sect seemed over, as though a storm was brewing in the distance.

Yet, the specific omens of calamity he could not discern.

In front of the elegant rosewood desk, the Taixu Sect Master and Elder Master Xun sat opposite each other. After the water boiled and the tea was fragrant, the Taixu Sect Master personally stooped to pour a cup of tea for Elder Master Xun, then sighed and said:

"Taixu, Tai’a, Chongxu, though the Sword Dao has split into three and became three different Sects, we ultimately share common ancestry, same alliance..." ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom

"I’ve spoken to their Sect Leaders, but they don’t believe me."

"The Tai’a Sect is strong and seems to aspire to go further, to claim supremacy among the Eight Great Gates."

"The Chongxu Sect is a mid-tier faction but also aims to be among the top ranks."

The Taixu Sect Master chuckled self-deprecatingly, "Ironically, it’s our Taixu Sect that lags behind, contented without ambition."

Elder Master Xun took a sip of tea, but remained silent.

The Taixu Sect Master sighed, with a hint of lamentation, and continued:

"The Tai’a Sect has been gathering Heavenly Prides in recent years, especially the Ouyang Family; that young man named Ouyang Feng, seemingly inconspicuous but he has deeply cultivated the Sect Protecting Swordsmanship, is composed, does not show off his brilliance, a talent truly worth employing."

"In the Chongxu Sect, it seems this generation has a Sword Dao Genius with exceptional talent. Not long after joining, he sensed the Chongxu Sword Tomb, cultivating Chongxu Sword Qi, regarded as the disciple with the highest talent in the past five hundred years within the Chongxu Sect."

"As for our Taixu Sect, we’re just lacking somewhat... We have those with good Spiritual Roots and those who cultivate Swordsmanship, but in the end, we’re ’Median’, compared to these true Heavenly Prides, still one step behind."

The Taixu Sect Master shook his head, his expression resigned:

"No wonder the Tai’a Sect and Chongxu Sect aren’t too enthusiastic about associating with our Taixu Sect."

"They don’t take my words seriously; they are probably afraid that our Taixu Sect will hold them back."

Elder Master Xun frowned slightly.

Although the three Sects are of the same alliance, they indeed have gone their separate ways, each to their own destiny, unable to intervene in the affairs of others.

The Taixu Sect Master glanced at Elder Master Xun, his expression turning grave, and asked in a low voice:

"Elder Master, what... has actually happened?"

Elder Master Xun sighed, "I am not quite sure myself."

The Taixu Sect Master’s expression grew serious.

"In any case," Elder Master Xun said, "from now on, instruct the Sect Disciples to be cautious in their words and deeds, and keep some of the Sect’s arrangements conservative, avoid rash actions..."

The Taixu Sect Master nodded.

Resigned to maintain health, he’s familiar with that.

Elder Master Xun said, "The days ahead might not be peaceful, just keep a low profile, protect the foundation, survive through it all."

"Being uneventful is an achievement in itself, no need to compete with others; if they want fame and fortune, let them fight for it."

Elder Master Xun’s expression was indifferent.

"Elder Master speaks wisely." The Taixu Sect Master agreed.

Afterward, the two continued to drink tea, discussing some Sect affairs, then Elder Master Xun said, "However, there’s a small rule that needs to be changed."

The Taixu Sect Master was startled.

Elder Master Xun said, "Starting with this cohort, during the large Formation class, all Disciples of the same generation will attend the Formation class together."

The Taixu Sect Master, puzzled, frowned and asked:

"Elder Master, forgive my ignorance, but does this action... have some deeper meaning?"
