Chapter 203 Struggle for power and profit
Gong Hua smashed the defensive formation of Chaoxia Peak, and Ding Huan was awakened.
At this moment, the third nebula has formed in his dantian.
When Ding Huan sent out his spiritual sense, he saw Gong Hua and Liu Yinzhu.
Seeing Gong Hua was about to attack Liu Yinzhu, Ding Huan wanted to rush out to help. But then Elder Person and Elder Jiasha came over and wanted to hold a meeting of the sect elders.
Ding Huan knew that he should be called to the meeting.
Ding Huan simply stopped practicing, he knew that he had to improve his knowledge of formations first.
Ding Huan was not afraid of the sect meeting. What he was worried about was that the bastard Gong Hua would sneak up to Chaoxia Peak at night and kill him.
Since I can't practice, I might as well refine the weapon.
Ding Huan has practiced the art of formations and talismans, and his ability in making talismans is not bad. Now that he has the magic weapon talisman pen, he can also make third-level talismans.
He chose to refine weapons not because he wanted to become a weapon refiner, but because he wanted to refine good formation flags for himself.
As long as he has good formation flags and works harder on his formation skills, he can at least upgrade the Chaoxia Peak's protective formation to level three.
The current second-level protective formation was not set up by him. Wouldn’t it be terrifying to live in it?
The level of the refining room in Chaoxia Peak is not low. At least the level of the earth fire inside is much stronger than Ding Huan's foundation-building true fire.
Arriving at the refining room, Ding Huan grabbed all the materials.
This was what was left over from his talisman refining. To become a third-level formation master, he had to at least become a second-level weapon refiner first.
Ding Huan himself is a third-level talisman maker, and his instruments and talismans are connected.
In addition, Ding Huan had refined a bunch of formation flags before, and now he had a basic reference book on refining equipment.
This time, Ding Huan only took one hour to successfully refine a first-level magic weapon formation flag.
Just at this moment, someone came to call him, and it was Elder Jiasha.
Ding Huan already knew that he had to attend this meeting of elders, otherwise Gong Hua would not give up.
"Friend Ding, Gong Hua may not give up this time. If it really doesn't work, we can make some concessions first.
Elder Gong Hua's cultivation is far stronger than Elder Liu and I, and he is at the True Dan Perfection Realm. He wants to reach Chaoxia Peak in order to reach the Yuanhun Realm."
Jia Sha didn't know Ding Huan's character, and took the initiative to introduce Gong Hua to Ding Huan on the way, with fear in his tone.
Ding Huan knew what Jia Sha meant. He wanted him to give up Chaoxia Peak.
Chaoxia Peak is a perfect fit for his cultivation. How could he possibly give up such a good place?
Besides, Chaoxia Peak was still given to Gong Hua to reach the Yuanhun realm. Isn't this helping Gong Hua sharpen his knife to kill himself?
He was sure that Sect Leader Gu Mo would not ignore this matter. If Gu Mo did not care, then he would run away as far away as possible.
"Don't worry, Elder Jia, I know what to do." Ding Huan knew that Jia Sha was used to being cautious, so he was too lazy to talk to him.
Jiasha was an old and experienced man. He could tell at a glance that Ding Huan did not take his words to heart, so he could only sigh and continue to say:
"Although the sect master's injury has been cured, the previous injury was too serious and he cannot take action now, so the sect master needs to recuperate for a while. When the time comes, I will ask the sect master to help you get Chaoxia Peak back."
Ding Huan frowned. Sect Master Gu couldn't take action?
How can this be?
He was the one who saved Sect Master Gu, so he knew Gu Mo's situation very well.
Even though Gu Mo was only skin and bones when he saved him, as long as the poison was removed, Gu Mo could recover more than 70% of his strength in half a month at most.
In other words, Gu Mo can definitely come to the sect elders meeting now.
If that’s the case, why did Jia Sha say that Gu Mo couldn’t take action?
"How many Yuanhun Realm elders are there in Zixia Valley?" Ding Huan asked again.
If Gu Mo cannot take action, and there are other powerful Yuanhun masters in Zixia Valley who support Gong Hua, then he doesn't even want to go to the conference.
Jiasha smiled bitterly and said:
“If there were a powerful Yuanhun master in my Zixia Valley, the Jiuyin Sect would not dare to be so arrogant.
There are three powerful Yuanhun masters in my Zixia Valley, one is the sect master, and the other is the guardian elder Pujun. The sect master was seriously injured, and Elder Pujun died, which is why the Jiuyin Sect bullied us. "
"What about the third one?" Ding Huan wondered.
Jia Sha said: "Elder He has been in seclusion to break through to a higher level. He is also the backer of Gong Hua and others. But he never intervenes."
Ding Huan realized that there were also powerful Yuanhun masters behind Gong Hua and the others.
This Yuanhun strongman is not good. His own sect is bullied by other sects, and this guy is like a dead man, and he doesn't even come out.
"Zixia Valley has been destroyed. Isn't Elder He going to come out?" Ding Huan was a little surprised.
Jiasha shook his head and said nothing.
Ding Huan was filled with contempt in his heart. If he were the sect leader, this guy who occupied the sect's resources and didn't care about the sect's life or death should get as far away from him as possible.
This also allowed Ding Huan to feel at ease in fighting against Gong Hua, because even if Elder He was Gong Hua's backer, he would not come out.
"Then there are many powerful Yuanhun masters in the Jiuyin Sect?"
Jasha disdains:
"They only have one Yuanhun cultivator. If it weren't for Ziyuan Chongshan, they wouldn't even have a Yuanhun."
"Oh." Ding Huan nodded. There was only one Yuanhun cultivator in the Jiuyin Sect. Why did he dare to be so arrogant?
"By the way, Elder Jia, is Tianqi Sect far from Zixia Valley?" Ding Huan asked again.
Jia Sha looked at Ding Huan in silence, thinking that this fellow Daoist Ding was really out of his mind. Just now he was talking about the Yuanhun realm cultivators, and in the blink of an eye he asked about the Tianqi Sect. This change was extremely fast.
"It's not far. We've arrived at the sect's meeting hall. Let's go in together. Remember to be careful with what you say." Jia Sha pointed to a big door in front of them and walked in while speaking.
Ding Huan followed Jia Sha into the council hall.
The sect hall of Zixia Valley also looks very imposing. There are a total of twenty-one people in the hall, including the elders of Jiasha.
Ding Huan did not use his divine sense to scan, but he practiced the Great Universe Technique, and as soon as he came in, he sensed that all the people here were True Dan realm cultivators.
Liu Yinzhu's seat was almost at the back. Jia Sha was with Liu Yinzhu and was obviously one of the elders with the lowest status.
Ding Huan thought to himself, these two guys are really mediocre.
If Sect Master Gu Mo had not been rescued by him, he would have advised the two to leave the sect as soon as possible.
What surprised Ding Huan was that Gu Mo was not sitting in the sect leader's position, but a Zhendan monk wearing a monk's robe.
Judging from this guy's appearance, he seems to be stronger than Gong Hua.
This broken sect has no unity at all. The leader is not dead yet, but he is already sitting in the position of leader.
What's the difference between this guy's actions and what Gong Hua did before, when he sent people to guard outside his Chaoxia Peak?
They were all waiting for Gu Mo to die, and then they would divide the profits among themselves.
"Ding Huan, why do you want to occupy Chaoxia Peak?" a stern shout came.
The powerful aura seemed to suppress Ding Huan to the point where he could not speak.
The one who spoke was the guy sitting on the suzerain's seat.
Ding Huan laughed in his heart. A mere Zhen Dan wanted to use his aura to suppress him so that he couldn't speak?
I guess this guy thought that he couldn't bear the pressure and knelt down?
"Ding Huan meets the Sect Master."
Ding Huan took a few steps forward, clasped his fists and greeted him politely, as if the guy who had just intimidated him was not the one sitting on the sect leader's seat.
"I am the sect's law enforcement elder Dong Lishang, not the sect master. Please be careful with your words."
Although Dong Lishang scolded Ding Huan, he did not use intimidation this time.
After all, Ding Huan's words touched his heart. Now that the sect leader had died, the position of sect leader belonged to him.
This is the result of everyone's exchange of interests, just like Chaoxia Peak has been turned into a palace and no one else can take it away.
Ding Huan calculated that he was safe this time, and he understood what was going on.
He was sure that Gu Mo was here too. Why didn’t he go and become sworn brothers with Lao Liu?
Gu Mo is not coming out now because he is waiting for things to develop. He probably wants to find out how many traitors there are.
Ding Huan despised Gu Mo's behavior.
You said that as a sect leader at the Yuanhun realm, is it necessary for you to do this?
Just come out and lay out the terms, pull out the mistakes, beat them when necessary, suppress them, and kill them.
"So you are not the sect master? According to the Zixia Valley Sect Discipline General Principles, Sect Mastership, Article 17, Article 31, Sub-Article.
If a disciple or elder of the sect who is not the sect master takes the position of the sect master, the punishment will be imprisonment in Canyuan Cliff for one year at the lightest, three years at the worst or his martial arts will be abolished.
Elder Dong, you have violated the sect's rules."
Dong Lishang was furious, but he couldn't say that Ding Huan was wrong.
Although everyone knew about this, the sect leader was about to die, and he was sitting here to warm up the new sect leader.
When he becomes the suzerain, who would dare to say that he has violated the suzerainty?
Now that this unspoken rule had been openly spoken out by Ding Huan, how could Dong Lishang be more than just angry?
"Ding Huan, it's not your turn to talk nonsense about Elder Dong's affairs. Now it's about your problem. Let me ask you, what qualifications do you have to occupy Chaoxia Peak?"
Gong Hua's words temporarily focused everyone's attention on Ding Huan again.
This is because Gong Hua didn't know that Ding Huan was not yet a disciple of Zixia Valley. If he knew, he would have clamored even louder.
Indeed, Liu Yinzhu was responsible for recruiting disciples this time. If she insisted that Ding Huan was the disciple she recruited, no one could refute it.
Ding Huan said calmly, "I went to live in Chaoxia Peak with the Sect Master's order. Is there a problem with this?"
Gong Hua sneered:
"The Sect Master can't even speak now, and you have the Sect Master's warrant? Not only that, you also teamed up with Liu Yinzhu to kill my disciple Gao Ou."
After saying this, Gong Hua clasped his fists towards Dong Lishang:
"Law Enforcement Elder, Liu Yinzhu and Ding Huan occupied Chaoxia Peak and killed disciples in the sect. How should they be punished?"
"Elder Liu has been imprisoned in Canyuan Cliff for ten years. As a disciple, Ding Huan has no respect for his elders and kills without mercy. Come here..." Dong Lishang said coldly.
Ding Huan laughed and said:
"Master Dong, do you mean that whatever you say is final? Elder Liu and I no longer have the power to defend ourselves?"
"My Zixia Valley is fair and just. I brought you here so that you can die with a guilty conscience." Dong Lishang snorted.
Ding Huan gave a thumbs up:
“Sect Master Dong said it very well. Just now, Sect Master Dong said that those who disrespect their elders will be killed without mercy. I agree with that because Zixia Valley does have such a rule.
What I want to say now is that the reason why Gao Ou was killed was because Gao Ou not only disrespected his elders, but also committed treason and disrespected the clan leader."
"What you said is useless. If you can't produce any evidence, it's all just slander. But the fact that you occupied Chaoxia Peak is irrefutable evidence." Gong Hua's murderous intent became stronger and stronger.
If Elder Person hadn't been interfering, why would there be a need for a meeting? They would just be beaten to death.
