Xuantian Immortal Cultivation Record

However, what Fire Crow Daoist said did strike a chord with him. How could a mistake made in a moment become a shame that could never be washed away!

He asked himself, when he was questioned by Ling Xiao, he did reveal many secrets out of a desire to survive, but these things did not bring any harm to the Xuan Tian Sect.

And when he entered the Void Demon Space and contacted Wu Yuankui with the Sound Transmission Spiritual Jade, it was not out of cowardice or surrender to power, but to help Real Man Qi, Senior Brother Wu, and several elders, a sincere and devoted intention.

It was just that his knowledge was too limited, and he did not expect that because Ling Xiao's strength was too strong, he would bring that terrifying alien demon to the Xuan Tian Sect cultivators, which eventually led to the tragic battle of Real Man Qi.

Zhang Yuanjing's thoughts turned frequently, and he pondered for a long time before calming down and nodding, "What the senior said is very true. However, the mistakes I have made are too serious, and it will not be easy to make up for them and gain the approval of the real people and the Jindan elders in the sect."

Fire Crow Daoist said with a smile, "Elder Yu and Elder Liu have sent Yuanjing to deal with the Thousand Swords Sect, obviously intending to help you establish merits as a capital to return to the sect. If one is not enough, then do a few more. As long as it is a Jindan realm battle, this old Daoist can help."

Zhang Yuanjing felt that things might not be so simple. Xie Tianwei was not a magnanimous person, and he had had many disagreements with Wu Yuankui back then.

"Yuanjing, if you want to return to the sect, there must be a few people in the sect to help you. What are the identities of these Elder Yu and Elder Liu? What is their relationship with you?" Fire Crow Daoist asked solemnly after seeing Zhang Yuanjing's silence and hesitation.

This was the most concerning issue for this experienced and sophisticated rogue cultivator master.

Zhang Yuanjing suddenly understood and briefly told Fire Crow Daoist about the identities of Yu Tianwan and Liu Yuanqing and their relationship with him. At the same time, he also mentioned the situation of Tong Tianfu and Xie Tianwei.

Fire Crow Daoist's eyes lit up, stroking his white beard and saying, "Yuanjing, this matter depends on the direct disciple of this Nascent Soul True Man."

Zhang Yuanjing also had this idea, but he wanted to hear Fire Crow Daoist's opinion, so he cupped his hands and said, "Please tell me in detail, senior."

Fire Crow Daoist smiled slightly and asked, "Yuanjing, I wonder who usually serves as the Sect Leader of the Xuan Tian Sect?"

Zhang Yuanjing said, "For nearly two thousand years, it has almost always been a disciple of a Nascent Soul True Man. Occasionally, it is not, it is because the Nascent Soul disciple's cultivation has not reached the Jindan realm."

Fire Crow Daoist asked again, "If a Nascent Soul disciple advances to Jindan, how long will the cultivator who previously served as Sect Leader give up the position of Sect Leader?"

Zhang Yuanjing recalled for a moment before saying, "The longest has not exceeded ten years. Does the senior mean that Sect Leader Xie is reluctant to leave his position and has a conflict with True Man Tong?

"However, the relationship between these two is not ordinary. Sect Leader Xie's master has the grace of teaching True Man Tong, these two, although not fellow apprentices, are no different from fellow apprentices."

Fire Crow Daoist asked, "This relationship is certainly very important, but it is definitely not as important as the master-disciple relationship. I wonder why the Xuan Tian Sect has insisted on having a Nascent Soul True Man's disciple serve as Sect Leader for nearly two thousand years?"

Zhang Yuanjing pondered for a moment and said, "For two thousand years, the Xuan Tian Sect has rarely had two Nascent Souls at the same time, and there are hostile forces such as the Thousand Swords Sect, the Candle God Sect, the Zixia Sect, and the Heavenly Demon Abyss around, so in order to ensure that the sect is united, this custom has formed."

Fire Crow Daoist smiled and said, "In that case, Liu Yuanqing should be the Sect Leader."

Zhang Yuanjing said, "But before, Liu Yuanqing had not yet entered the Jindan realm."

Fire Crow Daoist said, "Now that he has entered, he should abdicate. This is a sect custom and cannot be broken because of someone, even if he and the True Man can be called brothers. Moreover, there is still a hidden danger, has Yuanjing ever thought about it?"

Zhang Yuanjing shook his head, "Please enlighten me, senior."

Fire Crow Daoist said, "Since Xie Tianwei is already at the Great Perfection of the Jindan realm, if he breaks through to the Nascent Soul realm one day, then who should succeed as Sect Leader?"

Zhang Yuanjing was stunned and said blankly, "Xie Tianwei's disciple has not yet entered the Jindan realm, so naturally Liu Yuanqing will succeed."

Fire Crow Daoist said, "That is not necessarily the case. Since Xie Tianwei was unwilling to give up his position when he was at the Great Perfection of the Jindan realm, why would he necessarily give up his position after entering the Nascent Soul realm? Tong Tianfu has benefited from Xie Tianwei's master in the past, but this kind of favor will not always exist.

"Tong Tianfu's support for Xie Tianwei to serve as Sect Leader can be considered as fulfilling his gratitude. Moreover, after he served as Sect Leader, he was also very accommodating to him. However, after forty or fifty years, this person is still reluctant to leave his position, doesn't Tong Tianfu have any resentment?

"If there is only one Nascent Soul in the sect, it is natural and acceptable for a Nascent Soul disciple to serve as Sect Leader. If there are two Nascent Souls, which Nascent Soul's disciple should serve as Sect Leader?

"Yuanjing, don't use the previous situation to infer the current situation. It is true that Xie Tianwei and Tong Tianfu have a close relationship, but that was in the past, when both of them were Jindan cultivators.

"Now, the status of the two has undergone major changes, and their relationship has also changed accordingly. Tong Tianfu is the only Nascent Soul True Man of the Xuan Tian Sect, and he certainly hopes that his direct disciple Liu Yuanqing can take over as Sect Leader as soon as possible, so as to ensure that he has the final say in the sect.

"And Xie Tianwei, as the current Sect Leader, and the next Jindan cultivator most likely to advance to Nascent Soul, naturally does not want to hand over the position of Sect Leader, and even hopes that after advancing to Nascent Soul, his own disciple will take over the sect. Therefore, no matter how harmonious these two are on the surface, the internal contradictions are irreconcilable."

Zhang Yuanjing had never thought of this before, and he was stunned to hear it. However, upon careful consideration, the truth was indeed so. He had heard Wu Yuankui say that the Sect Leader of the Xuan Tian Sect was not a puppet of the Nascent Soul True Man, and he held many secret orders that could restrain the Nascent Soul.

In this kind of large sect with tens of thousands of years of inheritance, internal management has always been based on establishing rules and governing according to rules, not who has the bigger fist and can act arbitrarily. That kind of sect will sooner or later decline due to internal strife.

Seeing that Zhang Yuanjing seemed to have gained something, Fire Crow Daoist asked again, "Liu Yuanqing is a dignified first disciple of the True Man, why would he risk coming to this Two Dragon Mountain? He only has two people, and Elder Yu is only in the middle stage of Jindan."

Zhang Yuanjing said, "Does the senior mean that Liu Yuanqing was sent out by True Man Tong to gain experience and establish merits?"

Fire Crow Daoist nodded, "This is actually an attitude, an attitude shown to Xie Tianwei. However, Xie Tianwei, as the Sect Leader, pretended not to know and did not send him more helpers, only giving him an injured Yu Tianwan! Isn't the meaning of this very clear!"

Zhang Yuanjing remembered Yu Tianwan saying that with his help, Liu Yuanqing could "raise his eyebrows and show his heroic spirit", wasn't that what he meant! And his way back must also be opened from here.
