Chapter 337: Cleaning the Divine Plane 1
"As you could see here, our sect has a method that allows us to find out who are the members of the soul-eaters organization within the sect, so today we are going to eliminate all infiltrators who are in the sect here."
"Using this method that you have seen we can investigate whether the captured disciples are really to blame and only then do we kill them by the rules of the divine plane, so if we capture someone innocent what is impossible then that person will be released without any injury."
After seeing that the Sword Sect caught only the members of the organization, the sects calmed down and the normal disciples and elders became calmer, those who were members of the organization were trying to find out how the Sword Sect could know who the members of the organization were.
The disciples and elders who were members of the organization could not know who a member of the same organization was unless an order from a superior came to advise who it was for them to work with.
The reason for this was so that there would be no betrayal among members of the organization, so the members of the organization imagined that the Sword Sect could have captured a high-level member of the organization.
But they thought this was impossible because the highest level members of the organization should have ways to keep it secret even if they were captured, they could never believe that the Sword Sect really had a method for finding out who was a member of the organization.
So the members of the organization were sure that the Sword Sect could not find everyone and so they would expect that they would not be captured, Zhang Yi also knew that they should think so and that capturing and killing the members of the organization was so easy.
After a few days, all members of the organization were captured and after it was proven that they were members of the organization they were killed, some sects had no members of the organization infiltrated like the Justice Sect, but some had almost half of the members of the sect killed.
Zhang Yi felt no pity because only the members of the organization were killed, the easier a sect was for the organization to infiltrate, the easier it was for the organization to take control of that sect.
Zhang Yi can this time accompany these sects for hundreds of years and he can see that a few hundred years ago these sects had much less infiltration from the organization, and many members of the sects who were never in the organization became members after being tempted.
If Zhang Yi waited a few hundred more years, the organization could have dominated several sects of the divine plane, in fact, it was possible that they had already dominated sects that Zhang Yi had never seen in distant territories where the Sword Sect was.
The sects did not like being arrested like that and being investigated without knowing about it before, but seeing how many members of the soul devourers' organization had been killed they were happier.
All members of these sects came to this tournament, which meant that these sects were cleared of members of the organization and infiltrated, Zhang Yi, warned these sects to try not to have new members for a few years just in case.
After that Zhang Yi and the elders of the Emperor Realm returned to the main territory of the sect and the others returned to the territory of the Sword Sect region, the members of the Sword Sect of that territory were able to see how the elders of the Emperor Realm treated Zhang Yi with much respect.
They didn't know that Zhang Yi was in the Divine Realm and thought it was because Zhang Yi was a genius if they knew that Zhang Yi was now one of the most important elders in the sect they would be ashamed.
Zhang Yi was happy after the Sword Sect started the war against the soul devourers' organization secretly, the organization could not know what happened until the 10 strongest sects knew about it.
These sects that the Sword Sect cleared of the organization's infiltrators were sometimes just branches of the main sects that were in that territory just as the Sword Sect did, so the highest level sects had to be informed of what the Sword Sect did.
This information would be passed on to the 10 largest sects that would hold a meeting to discuss what the Sword Sect had done, of course, nothing would happen because the Sword Sect did good for the divine plane and because most of the 10 largest sects were Sword Sect allies.
It was also part of Zhang Yi's plan that he would tell the Sword Sect elders to use this success to show that they really had a way of finding out who the members of the soul-eaters organization were.
At that meeting, they could ask for approval to do more tournaments like this for the sake of the divine plane, and after what happened it was certain that they would receive approval from most of the 10 largest sects.
Zhang Yi decided not to go to that meeting in order not to cause the displeasure of other sects who did not know that he was in the Divine Realm, Zhang Yi could not simply lie saying that he was at the ninth level of the Emperor Realm.
After a few months just as the Sword Sect expected the 10 largest sects to decide to hold a meeting after knowing what the Sword Sect had done, it would not be an accusation because without a doubt Sword Sect had done something very good for the divine plane, and yes they would question their motives and methods.
The great sects wanted to know how the Sword Sect could do this and if other sects could and would also want to know why the Sword Sect didn't do it before if they could, and they would question the wrong way the Sword Sect did it.
After all, they practically arrested several large sects by threatening them with Emperor Realm elders who were not allowed in the weaker territories, and did so or any authorization.
At the meeting, the Sword Sect elders calmly explained everything that happened and answered all the questions as they had already rehearsed, as it was not really an accusation after talking about it for some time the other sects accepted the Sword Sect explanation they had done something very good for the divine plane.
After the questioning was over Sword Sect applied for authorization to do more tournaments and investigations like these for the sake of the divine plane, the major sects naturally accepted after seeing the success of the Sword Sect in the last tournament.
Only two sects denied it as well as the Sword Sect, but most won and the Sword Sect got the authorization they hoped to continue Zhang Yi's plan, this time they had to be more careful and decisive to be able to destroy the organization before they could to react.
So two years passed quickly and in those years Zhang Yi's plan moved forward quickly, all the sects already knew that the Sword Sect had received full authorization to investigate, but whoever was not in the organization of the soul-eaters had no reason to be afraid because they knew that the Sword Sect was a just sect.
As soon as Sword Sect received authorization, they quickly scheduled tournaments in all territories where Sword Sect had a branch sect, in these tournaments all sects in the region were required to attend the tournament and bring in all members of the sect.
The tournaments were on different days because Zhang Yi had to be in all investigative groups as he was the only one who could discover the members of the soul-eaters organization.
In the first weeks, 4 sects disobeyed the requirements of the Sword Sect, one of them did not bring all the members of the sect and the other sects did not even go to the tournament, Zhang Yi took a group of elders from the Emperor Realm and invaded those sects.
Zhang Yi and the elders broke some of the sects' barriers before invading and then Zhang Yi found the members of the organization infiltrated and killed them without using the soul search, then he and the elders left those sects and went to the tournament.
As Zhang Yi had not done a soul search before killing these disciples and elders these invaded sects did not know if Zhang Yi had really killed only the members of the organization or if he killed whoever he wanted.
They complained to the biggest sects that only replied that if they had gone to the tournament this would not have happened, after these examples, no sect was missing from the tournaments that the Sword Sect organized.
In these two years, Zhang Yi's wives were also able to advance in cultivation, having the memory of the past life it was easier for them to advance in cultivation, Lusserina and Saphielle were able to advance to the initial layer of the Spiritual Sea realm.
Luna and Solar were able to advance to the advanced layer of the Core Revolution realm, they were able to advance more quickly in cultivation because they had the memories of the past to help, but their talent prevented them from cultivating as quickly as Zhang Yi did.
