Chapter 672: The Union of the Two Sects
Over the past half year, the concerted efforts of over 300,000 disciples had finally brought peace and stability to the Seeking-Tao Sect.
Jiang Yun was trying his best to strengthen the power of Seeking-Tao Sect as much as possible.
Besides taking the Five Treasures and the Hidden Tao Sword with him, he left behind everything he could, including the techniques of The Human Tao and various elixirs.
He also believed that the numerous disciples of Seeking-Tao Sect could continue to survive safely even after he left or even after his death.
Although other disciples may not realize that Jiang Yun was planning to leave, Xia Zhongxing and others couldn’t be deceived, so Xia Zhongxing came to ask Jiang Yun directly.
Seeing Jiang Yun silent, Xia Zhongxing continued, "Brother Jiang, the Mountain-Sea World is now completely under the Sea clan’s control."
"Although your strength is good, there is still some gap compared to Hai Changsheng and others."
"Whatever you plan to do, it’s better to stay in The Great Wilderness Realm for now. At least it’s relatively safe here. Wait until your strength improves before returning to the Mountain-Sea World!"
This was Xia Zhongxing’s good intention, but after considering it, Jiang Yun decided to reject the suggestion.
Despite the protection of the white mist, the seals targeting strong beings above the Sky Blessed Realm, and the presence of The Mark of the Desolate World Lord in The Great Wilderness Realm.
Staying here might help Jiang Yun fight the Boundary Patroller better, but he is too scared to take the risk.
If the Boundary Patroller is not afraid of the Mark of the Desolate World Lord like Jiang Yun, or if his power is beyond what the mist can seal, it could bring disaster to the whole Great Wilderness Realm.
He doesn’t want to bring disaster to the whole Great Wilderness Realm and put the disciples of the Seeking-Tao Sect, who just found hope and stability, in danger because of him.
He also doesn’t want the split Mountain-Sea Desolate World to completely collapse and be destroyed in an instant!
Although the current Mountain-Sea World is completely submerged in seawater and there are no living beings other than the Sea clan, it is still a great place for battles.
If he and the Boundary Patroller fight, at least there would be no worries.
Faced with Xia Zhongxing’s concern, Jiang Yun shook his head with a troubled expression and said, "Brother Xia, I’m sorry, I can’t stay, and I can’t tell you what I’m going to do."
Xia Zhongxing understood Jiang Yun’s personality very well and knew that his reluctance to speak must be because he didn’t want to put himself and others at risk.
With a sigh, Xia Zhongxing didn’t ask further and just nodded, saying, "Let us know when you leave, we’ll be waiting for your return!"
"Good!"
After finishing his conversation with Xia Zhongxing, Jiang Yun left the Seeking-Tao Sect.
Just three days later, he returned with a large group of disciples from the Grand Medicine Sect.
Jiang Yun rescued all the cultivators, around thirty to fifty thousand, from the white mist.
Although he wanted to bring them all to the Seeking-Tao Sect, after careful consideration, he decided to abandon the idea.
After all, he knew nothing about them and bringing them into the Seeking-Tao Sect could cause unnecessary trouble.
Therefore, Jiang Yun only let them avoid receiving The Mark of the Desolate World Lord and entered Wilderness City.
Jiang Yun didn’t have the extra energy to think about how they would survive or thrive in The Great Wilderness Realm, so he left them to fend for themselves.
However, after getting their consent, he brought all the people from the Grand Medicine Sect back to the Seeking-Tao Sect.
Guan Yiming told Jiang Yun that after the Grand Medicine Sect and Samsara Sect joined forces, almost half of their disciples safely reached The Great Wilderness Realm despite facing many dangers along the way.
However, when facing The Mark of the Desolate World Lord, many of these disciples chose to accept it. That’s why Jiang Yun only brought back a little over three thousand people, which is all of Grand Medicine Sect’s disciples.
Most of Samsara Sect’s disciples chose to accept The Mark of the Desolate World Lord and entered The Great Wilderness Realm long ago, their current whereabouts unknown.
Jiang Yun wasn’t interested in Samsara Sect, his only concern was Feng Wuji.
Unfortunately, Feng Wuji had already left with the awakened bloodline of the ancient demon clan, leaving the Mountain-Sea World.
Jiang Yun had let go of his hatred towards Feng Wuji and just wanted to meet him to clear up a past misunderstanding.
So, Jiang Yun wasn’t bothered by Feng Wuji’s departure.
The arrival of the Grand Medicine Sect members was anticipated by the disciples of the Seeking-Tao Sect, who showed kindness towards them.
The disciples of Grand Medicine Sect were completely astonished.
Because they left Mountain-Sea World earlier than Jiang Yun and the others, they did not know about the situation of Seeking-Tao Sect.
At this moment, seeing the huge size of Seeking-Tao Sect, seeing three hundred thousand disciples who had experienced wars, and seeing experts like Zuo Haochen and Xia Zhongxing from Sky Blessed Realm Earth Protection Realm, made them simply unable to believe it!
The Calamity of the Mountain-Sea World and No-Returning Road caused all the sects and clans of Mountain-Sea World to be almost completely destroyed. Even if they managed to reach The Great Wilderness Realm, they suffered heavy losses and great injuries.
But Seeking-Tao Sect was exactly the opposite.
Now, the strength of Seeking-Tao Sect has far exceeded their expectations!
Jiang Yun looked at Grand Medicine Sect’s master, Mei Yuyao, and said, "Master Mei, this mountain range is very large, and I have set up many defensive formations nearby. It is enough for our two sects to stay here. If you don’t mind, you can stay here temporarily."
Hearing Jiang Yun’s words, Mei Yuyao’s face showed a hint of shame.
In the past, she had planned to kill Jiang Yun in order to obtain the Medicine God Inheritance.
But now, Jiang Yun not only forgave the past, but also helped the Grand Medicine Sect in a time of danger. His kindness made her speechless.
After discussing with Master Hui, Elder Shen, and others, Mei Yuyao made a surprising decision, which was to bring all the disciples of Grand Medicine Sect and join Seeking-Tao Sect!
Even though this action might seem disrespectful, Mei Yuyao was very clear that without Jiang Yun, they would all die in the white mist.
Instead of relying on Seeking-Tao Sect’s protection for survival, Mei Yuyao and the others decided to give up their useless pride and reputation and join Seeking-Tao Sect.
Moreover, since Jiang Yun received the complete inheritance of the Medicine God and is the sect master of Seeking-Tao Sect, it made sense for them to join.
Jiang Yun was a bit surprised by Mei Yuyao and the others’ decision, but it was within his expectations, so he welcomed them with open arms.
Grand Medicine Sect excelled in the field of medicine, and with their joining, Seeking-Tao Sect would be greatly strengthened, so their agreement was gladly given.
Thus, Seeking-Tao Sect and Grand Medicine Sect merged, and although there were many matters to be dealt with, Jiang Yun didn’t need to personally oversee everything.
Jiang Yun then approached Mei Bugu and said, "Senior Mei!"
Mei Bugu softly asked, "Where is your master?"
Even though Mei Bugu didn’t talk to Jiang Yun along the way, when they arrived here, Mei Bugu kept looking among the 300,000 disciples of Seeking-Tao Sect, but couldn’t find the face she wanted to see, realizing something long ago.
"Our master had already left for another world before I returned to the Mountain-Sea World!"
Jiang Yun’s words made Mei Bugu shiver slightly and slowly close his eyes.
Jiang Yun, standing on the side, quickly continued, "Our master’s departure was not voluntary, but forced."
So Jiang Yun explained in detail the reason for the master’s departure.
After hearing this, Mei Bugu showed no emotion, just opened his eyes and pointed to the top of Hidden Peak, saying, "Can I live there?"
"Yes!"
"Thank you!"
After saying these words, Mei Bugu slowly turned around, stepped up to the top of Hidden Peak, sat down cross-legged, the lonely figure resembling Gu Bulao from years past.
