Becoming an immortal against the will of heaven
#702 - Chapter 702: Like a thorn in the back
After flying another ten thousand miles, Chen Tian finally stopped with the group on a low mountain peak.
After briefly arranging the disciples he brought, Old Ancestor Motian walked up to Chen Tian, his expression solemn, and said, "Now can you tell me why you refused the Immortal Cultivation Alliance's invitation just now? After all, this is a good opportunity. If we can join the Immortal Cultivation Alliance, then even if Supreme Master comes to take revenge on us in the future, we won't have to be afraid."
Old Ancestor Motian was indeed somewhat surprised by Chen Tian's decision just now.
You should know that they had just split from the Brahma Heaven Sect, and in the blink of an eye, the Immortal Cultivation Alliance, with equal strength, came to recruit them. Such a wonderful thing is rare to come by in three lifetimes.
If they joined the Immortal Cultivation Alliance, they could use their power to fight against the Brahma Heaven Sect and no longer fear Supreme Master's revenge in the future.
That's why Old Ancestor Motian felt Chen Tian's decision was a bit unbelievable.
Chen Tian naturally knew what Old Ancestor Motian was thinking, but at this moment, he said with a gloomy expression, "Why do you think the two of them came to recruit us at this time? Have you thought about the deeper meaning behind this?"
"Deeper meaning?" Old Ancestor Motian was stunned for a moment and shook his head, saying, "I really haven't thought about that. Do you know something?"
"Heh heh, we just left the Brahma Heaven Sect, and not even the time it takes for an incense stick to burn has passed before these two people caught up. There is only one hidden meaning behind this, and that is that the Brahma Heaven Sect has completely broken with the Immortal Cultivation Alliance!" As he said this, Chen Tian looked back, a cold glint appearing in his eyes.
"What?" Old Ancestor Motian was immediately shocked and, following Chen Tian's gaze, looked back as well. He opened his mouth in disbelief, saying, "That's impossible, right?"
"Nothing is impossible." A cold and firm sentence completely shattered the last bit of hopeful fantasy in Old Ancestor Motian's heart. Chen Tian coldly said, "I've lived in your Brahma Heaven Sect for some time, after all. I know that you've been preparing to break with the Immortal Cultivation Alliance for a long time. And just now, we caused such a big commotion, even Supreme Master would find it difficult to explain to the Immortal Cultivation Alliance. So, I think he must have taken this opportunity to formally separate from the Immortal Cultivation Alliance."
"Hiss…"
Old Ancestor Motian sucked in a cold breath. He hadn't expected that Chen Tian, who looked quite young and whose name he had never heard before, could see through the relationship between the Brahma Heaven Sect and the Immortal Cultivation Alliance in such a short period of time and boldly deduce the information that the two had already broken up.
Although Old Ancestor Motian had known from the beginning that Chen Tian was very clever, this time, he couldn't help but admire Chen Tian's wisdom once again.
After calming down for a while, Old Ancestor Motian finally steadied his mind and nodded, saying, "That's right. In fact, the Brahma Heaven Sect began secretly contacting other sects ten years ago to discuss jointly resisting the Immortal Cultivation Alliance. After all, as the Immortal Cultivation Alliance gradually became stronger, it began to affect the Brahma Heaven Sect's position. Two tigers cannot share a mountain. Sooner or later, there will be a life-or-death struggle."
Chen Tian nodded after hearing this and sneered, saying, "That's why I'm sure that the Brahma Heaven Sect and the Immortal Cultivation Alliance have already broken up at this time. The reason why the Red and Blue Venerables left so quickly is probably related to this matter."
Old Ancestor Motian had already believed Chen Tian's idea at this time, knowing that something abnormal must have happened in the relationship between the Brahma Heaven Sect and the Immortal Cultivation Alliance.
However, this still didn't dispel the doubts in his heart. He asked Chen Tian in confusion, "Even so, you didn't need to reject their invitation. Wouldn't it be good for us to join the Immortal Cultivation Alliance together?"
"Heh heh, do you think things are that simple?"
Chen Tian's words were like a cloud of mist, trapping Old Ancestor Motian within it, unable to understand.
Seeing his confused look, Chen Tian shook his head and chuckled, taking the initiative to explain, "Let me put it this way. If the Brahma Heaven Sect and the Immortal Cultivation Alliance have really broken up, then before long, a fierce battle will break out between the two. And are they really being kind by asking us to join at this time? I don't think so. They just want to use us."
"Use? What do you mean by that?" Old Ancestor Motian asked in confusion.
"This is very simple." Chen Tian smiled, saying, "What do you think is most important when two armies are facing each other?"
"Of course, it's scouting the enemy's situation and understanding information. After all, knowing yourself and your enemy is the only way to win every battle." Hearing Chen Tian's question, Old Ancestor Motian blurted out.
"That's right, that's the point." Chen Tian nodded and smiled, saying, "Then let me ask you again, who knows the most about the Brahma Heaven Sect's situation now?"
"This…"
Old Ancestor Motian pondered for a while after hearing this. Then, as if he had thought of something, his face suddenly turned horrified.
Seeing Old Ancestor Motian's appearance, Chen Tian knew that he must have thought of it. He smiled slightly and continued, "That's right. The people who know the most about the Brahma Heaven Sect's situation now are us, who have just broken away from the Brahma Heaven Sect. And the reason why they came to us is precisely because they thought of this, planning to use us to spy on the Brahma Heaven Sect's information. Now, do you know why I rejected their invitation?"
As Chen Tian slowly explained, a storm had already risen in Old Ancestor Motian's heart.
He was not a stupid person and naturally understood the meaning in Chen Tian's words.
If the Brahma Heaven Sect and the Immortal Cultivation Alliance really went to war, then as the people most familiar with the Brahma Heaven Sect's situation, they would definitely be pushed to the forefront.
And Chen Tian, seeing his appearance, suddenly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. In fact, there was another reason that Chen Tian didn't tell Old Ancestor Motian.
Chen Tian knew that one of the biggest factors in why the Red and Blue Venerables came to win them over was that they had taken a fancy to Chen Tian's strength.
They felt that Chen Tian's strength, which he had shown in the Brahma Heaven Sect just now, should have reached the late stage of the凝海境 (Ninghai Realm/Sea Condensation Realm).
But only Chen Tian himself knew that the strength he had shown just now was fake. In fact, his true cultivation was only at the 化泉镜 (Huaquan Realm/Spring Transformation Realm).
Of course, the reasons for this were very complicated and also contained some of Chen Tian's secrets, so he didn't mention it to Old Ancestor Motian.
However, Chen Tian knew that his troubles would probably become greater and greater in the future!
