TO ACHIEVE IMMORTALITY, I CULTIVATE USING QI LUCK

Chapter 1466: Chapter 572: Revealing Identity Chapter 1466: Chapter 572: Revealing Identity Zhen Xuan was a man of action.

Having harbored suspicions in his heart, upon seeing Lu Yuan’s candid demeanor, he naturally wouldn’t conceal his curiosity and directly asked his question.

Lu Yuan admitted frankly, “Fellow cultivator’s thoughts are correct.

I indeed wish to align with your sect to jointly defeat the Evergreen Immortal Sect, thwarting their rising momentum.”

The current situation had become extremely clear.

The strength of the Evergreen Immortal Sect was rapidly accumulating.

The longer time dragged on, the greater their advantage and the more difficult their position would be to shake.

And for Taiping Dao and the Jiuzhou Immortal Gate, if they did not want to end up crushed by the overwhelming power of the Evergreen Immortal Sect eventually,

then the best method was to take action now while the opponent had yet to fully develop, interrupting their growth trend.

This was how the tense atmosphere in the Changqing Domain had come about.

All three Immortal Sects were fully aware of each other’s intentions.

It wasn’t something one could deny just by wishing to deny it.

The belief of the other party was also needed.

Originally, an alliance between Taiping Dao and the Jiuzhou Immortal Gate to face a common enemy was not a problem.

After all, it was only natural for the weaker to unite.

But now, with the reveal of Lu Yuan’s and Venerable Yi’s cultivation from Yi Dancheng, the situation had instantly changed.

What was once a union of the weak against the strong suddenly became a matter of two strong versus one weak.

At this time, as the weaker party, the Jiuzhou Immortal Gate forming an alliance with another second strong party to contest the strongest,

involving strategic risks that were completely different.

With two weaker parties against a strong one, when everyone’s strength was similar, there was no need to worry about being annexed by an ally once the strong party was defeated.

But in an alliance between a weaker and a stronger party, opposing another strong party, the weaker one must worry whether, after the other strong party was eliminated, they themselves would then be devoured by their own strong ally.

These examples were all too common throughout the history of the Immortal Realm.

As the weaker party, Zhen Xuan really had to consider this.

However, what confused him was why Taiping Dao, with this strength, had revealed its hand.

Wouldn’t it have been better to keep it hidden?

With a weaker identity, forging an alliance with Jiuzhou would not raise the ally’s concerns.

At the same time, keeping Lu Yuan and Venerable Yi hidden until a critical moment would undoubtedly have a greater effect and impact.

By revealing oneself now, not to mention jointly confronting the Evergreen Immortal Sect, even the prospect of forming an alliance had become an issue.

This truly baffled him.

After pondering, Zhen Xuan couldn’t help but ask, “Fellow cultivator is so frank, disclosing the hidden cultivation of your sect’s experts and Venerable Yi without reservation to me.

Aren’t you worried that by learning of this, it will affect our two sects’ alliance?

The strength of each sect is so formidable, just like my sect in the past.

Back then, when your sect faced a decisive battle with the Evergreen Immortal Sect, you chose to stand by and reap the benefits.

With the situation now reversed, aren’t you concerned that Jiuzhou might do the same, watching from the sidelines as Taiping Dao and the Evergreen Immortal Sect fight to the death, so we can pick up the pieces?

After all, there’s a precedent set by your sect.

We just need to follow suit without any concerns.”

Zhen Xuan spoke his true thoughts.

With the current strength of Taiping Dao, they could completely hold their own against the Evergreen Immortal Sect.

As long as he made Taiping Dao’s full capabilities known, in an instant, Taiping Dao would become the number one concern for the Evergreen Immortal Sect, facing their greatest hostility and oppression.

With this target in front, Jiuzhou would just need to sit back and watch the drama unfold.

Perhaps after the two sects had battled, they could imitate Taiping Dao, exhausting the victor further until the winner was forced to concede a portion of their gains.

Without deploying a single soldier or paying any price, they could share in the spoils of victory.

Such a tempting scenario was hard for anyone to resist.

“Wanting to profit as the fisherman requires taking both strength and the situation into account.

A thousand years ago, the decisive battle between your sect and the Evergreen Immortal Sect erupted over millennia of accumulating conflict, reaching a critical point, hence the battle.

This war wasn’t sparked just because of Taiping Dao’s emergence.

Whether Taiping Dao existed or not, this battle would have occurred.

The only difference was that Taiping Dao’s appearance hastened the war, creating more favorable conditions.

Therefore, between the Evergreen Immortal Sect and the Jiuzhou Immortal Gate, this battle was inevitable.

It was decided by your millennia of enmity and the struggle for dominance over the Changqing Domain.

With these underlying conditions, the battle broke out.

But between us, Taiping Dao, Jiuzhou, and the Evergreen Immortal Sect, there is no such ancestral vendetta, no war driven by hatred.

Our only conflict is the struggle for dominance over the Changqing Domain.

But this dominance is not a necessity for Taiping Dao.

We are not Jiuzhou, with the Tao Inheritance of the Nine Spirits Sect, obligated to carry on the previous teachings and revitalize the entire lineage.

Thus, having to battle with the Evergreen Immortal Sect over the entirety of the Changqing Domain.

Taiping Dao doesn’t carry this burden; we don’t have a core interest conflict with the Evergreen Immortal Sect, only some territorial disputes.

But these are secondary issues, negotiable.

To revive its sect, the Evergreen Immortal Sect does not necessarily need to occupy the entire Changqing Domain.

They need only more than two-thirds of the territory.

This would be sufficient for them to produce a Great True Person, to maintain their hegemony, imposing their authority over other sects within the domain.”
