Chapter 768 - 374: Guangyun Spirit Venerable, Upheaval in the Cyan Spirit Sect
"Guangyun Spirit Warrior?"
Chongyuan was slightly startled upon hearing this name, and he carefully observed the elderly man who had suddenly appeared.
After sensing the ethereal, immortal-like aura of the elder, Chongyuan nodded slightly.
This is... the aura characteristic of a Spiritualist at the level of the Sky Dome Ship.
The elder who claimed to be the Guangyun Spirit Warrior was in fact the old ancestor of the Cyan Spirit Sect’s Spirit Cultivators.
Realizing this, Chongyuan couldn’t help but display a friendly and kind smile: "It turns out to be the Guangyun Spirit Venerable. Speaking of which, your Cyan Spirit Sect and I do have some connections."
The Guangyun Spirit Venerable glanced at Chongyuan and then smirked: "Oh, I dare not. Chongyuan Spirit King is the son of the former Holy Spirit King, an exalted status. My Cyan Spirit Sect wouldn’t dare to establish relations with Chongyuan Spirit King."
"Now you both have forced your way through the mountain gate, what might be the purpose of such an action?"
Listening to the words of the Guangyun Spirit Venerable, Chongyuan’s heart sank slightly, but he still maintained a solemn expression and spoke seriously: "Our Spirit Cultivators were once so glorious, the masters of this world."
"But now we’re forced into a corner of the world, shrinking back to the West Cyan Continent, handing over the vast lands."
"All of this is because my Spirit Cultivators were not united before, we couldn’t focus our collective strength, leading to our decline from the peak of the era."
"Now I have inherited my father’s vision, and specifically returned to the West Cyan Continent to unite the power of all our Spirit Cultivators and recreate a glorious era!"
"Currently, among the Four Great Spirit Sects, the other three have already agreed to jointly celebrate this grand occasion, and I have come this time to deliver this news to the Guangyun Spirit Venerable and invite the Guangyun Spirit Venerable to join us in reviving the ancient splendor."
"By then, when the era changes, the Four Great Spirit Sects will perform outstandingly, and everyone will seize this grand occasion to advance to the Spirit Saint level!"
The Spirit Saint corresponds to the pinnacle captain level in the Sea Ship System.
Chongyuan, at this point, had a determined gleam in his eyes and was full of righteousness.
But the Guangyun Spirit Venerable still wore a smirk.
He reached out, pointing at Yuanqi beside Chongyuan, and then chuckled lightly: "Chongyuan Spirit King has grand ambitions, which I truly admire."
"But... if we were to revive the ancient splendor of the Spiritualists, what would become of the one beside the Spirit King?"
"If I’m not mistaken, this gentleman was once a pinnacle soul fragment during the Alchemy Era, correct?"
"Does Chongyuan Spirit King intend to cooperate with this master, to present a future of the Spiritualist era or the Alchemy era?"
Upon hearing the words of the Guangyun Spirit Venerable, Chongyuan’s face changed dramatically, his eyes flashed, and he opened his mouth, but couldn’t speak for a long time.
"Naturally, the Alchemy Era!"
At this moment, Yuanqi’s icy voice resounded from beside Chongyuan.
He looked down at the Guangyun Spirit Venerable: "You old fart, what are you rambling about? Just decide whether to submit, it’s a matter of a single word."
"If you refuse to submit, then fine, I’ll start a massacre!"
Yuanqi, with his irritable temperament, had grown quite impatient listening to the Guangyun Spirit Venerable and Chongyuan going back and forth.
And with the Guangyun Spirit Venerable calling Yuanqi a soul fragment, which was his cornerstone and a taboo, his heart was filled with murderous intent as he gazed coldly at the Guangyun Spirit Venerable.
"Hahahahaha!"
At this moment, the Guangyun Spirit Venerable suddenly burst into laughter.
He looked at Chongyuan with both disdain and disappointment, even going so far as to spit disgustedly on the ground: "Ah Chongyuan, Chongyuan, your father, the Holy Spirit King, died at the hands of Alchemists, and yet you keep the company of an Alchemist, cheekily coming before me, trying to leverage past connections to persuade the Cyan Spirit Sect?"
"Heh... my Cyan Spirit Sect is loyal to the Holy Spirit King, hence we refuse to submit or heed the Alchemists’ orders!"
The Guangyun Spirit Venerable sneered repeatedly: "If you know any shame, join me and kill this Alchemist, and then my Cyan Spirit Sect will willingly submit and honor you as Spirit King!"
"Otherwise, you best leave; pardon us, but my Cyan Spirit Sect finds it hard to comply!"
Upon hearing the Guangyun Spirit Venerable’s words, Chongyuan’s expression shifted repeatedly, a touch of guilt and bitterness flickering in his eyes.
Just as the Guangyun Spirit Venerable said.
His father, the last Spirit King, originally filled with ambition, sought to reform and rekindle the glory of the Spiritualist era.
But he encountered the rise of the Alchemists, leading to the downfall of his cultivation, and was ultimately killed on the spot by a group of Alchemists.
Those Alchemists, seizing upon the event of slaying his father, unified the world’s will, changed the era, and became the initial pinnacle Alchemists.
The Spiritualist era was ended by the Alchemy Era.
And now, ironically, Chongyuan finds himself needing to ally with remnants of the Alchemy Era, which is no different than collaborating with those who killed his father.
Chongyuan’s heart was filled with a complex array of emotions.
On one hand, he admired the loyalty of the Cyan Spirit Sect.
On the other hand, he was helplessly bound by Yuanqi, trapped with no alternatives.
But all this bitterness and helplessness couldn’t be explained and eventually had to be swallowed, becoming a bitter water swallowed down.
After the Guangyun Spirit Venerable finished speaking, he kept looking at Chongyuan, anticipating Chongyuan to nod and join him in killing Yuanqi.
But he was unaware that Yuanqi had already placed Water Poison within Chongyuan, ready to erupt. If it were to burst, Chongyuan would face an era of silence, uncertain of when he might awaken.
Therefore, Chongyuan was naturally cautious and couldn’t express his difficulties.
