Chapter 425: Resources Exposed (Part 2)
The Extreme Formation Sect Leader said those words, but after leaving, they did not first fly to the Hundred Peaks Sect. Instead, they stopped to chat with people from two mountain gates they passed by, looking at the situation of these two Great Teachings from outside.
Under normal circumstances, each Great Teaching can completely conceal their mountain gates, making it difficult for outsiders to find.
But now, these Great Teachings have only just found this place. They haven't completely transformed their mountain gates, so naturally, one can directly see these mountain gates, and even the conditions inside them. Even without entering the mountain gates of these two Great Teachings, just standing outside, he could sense the spiritual energy within.
Indeed, as the Truth Seeking Sect Leader had said, the spiritual energy within these two mountain gates is even scarcer than that within the mountain gates of the Truth Seeking Sect and Azure Cloud Sect.
"Let's go, let's take a look at the Hundred Peaks Sect."
The group continued flying forward and soon flew into the Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty.
Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty, in front of the Hundred Peaks Sect mountain gate.
After receiving the Heaven and Earth Ring, the Grand Preceptor didn't even look at the rings, directly throwing them in Cao Zhen's direction.
He had previously promised Cao Zhen to help gather those medicinal materials for him, and was worried about not having a place to obtain them. When the Death River Sect proactively came to deliver them, he naturally took advantage ruthlessly.
The Death River Sect Leader looked at the Grand Preceptor's actions from afar, stunned. Is this Grand Preceptor really so straightforward? He directly handed the Heaven and Earth Rings to the Hundred Peaks Sect Leader. Doesn't he want those resources?
After Cao Zhen received the Heaven and Earth Rings, he quickly opened them, and a multitude of medicinal materials were revealed.
These medicinal materials are truly abundant!
The Hundred Peaks Sect, having endured a Sect Tribulation, has accumulated quite a few medicinal materials over the years, but cannot compare even to the quantity of medicinal materials within just one Heaven and Earth Ring.
Let alone the medicinal materials within two Heaven and Earth Rings.
Moreover, the quality of the medicinal materials inside the Heaven and Earth Ring is quite high; most are Immortal Herbs, and even high-grade Immortal Herbs.
He quickly opened another Heaven and Earth Ring, the medicinal materials within not lesser than those in the first, perhaps even higher in quality.
Truly worthy of being a Great Teaching from the Central Continent, truly wealthy beyond compare.
However…
Cao Zhen suspects greatly whether the Death River Sect Leader would obediently hand over all the medicinal materials to them.
Though he doesn't know how many medicinal materials a top-tier Great Teaching truly possesses, someone knows.
"Elder Xi Mu, come take a look at the medicinal materials within these two Heaven and Earth Rings." Cao Zhen looked up at Immortal Lord Xi Mu in the void, though Xi Mu had not declared himself as an elder of the Hundred Peaks Sect, only saying he joined them. Yet with only one True Immortal Realm in the Hundred Peaks Sect, not appointing Xi Mu as an elder wouldn't make sense.
Immortal Lord Xi Mu heard his call and immediately flew down from the void, taking the two Heaven and Earth Rings from Cao Zhen to inspect.
After a moment, Xi Mu's face turned somber, and she turned back with a freezing gaze towards the Death River Sect Leader.
"Death River, is this truly all your sect's medicinal materials? Do you assume our Hundred Peaks Sect is easy to deceive? These medicinal materials aren't even as abundant as our Great Teaching's during its peak! Your mere Central Continent Great Teaching got only this much? Who are you trying to fool! I suppose you truly wish to let your entire Death River Sect perish in the Death River today!"
Though unaware of the precise quantities of medicinal materials during the peak of the Ten Thousand Immortals Sect, she knows roughly that there's far more than this!
And given the Death River Sect hails from the Central Continent, where resources are richer, their quantity of medicinal materials couldn't possibly be so minimal.
She even suspects that the Death River Sect hid another Heaven and Earth Ring's worth of resources!
The Death River Sect Leader stared at Immortal Lord Xi Mu, momentarily uncertain whether Xi Mu truly knew how many medicinal materials they possessed, or whether she was bluffing.
He tended towards the latter, as he had really inquired previously, the Hundred Peaks Sect was just a sect, and became a Great Teaching due to a unique moment by acquiring an Instant Millennium Pearl; thus, such a Great Teaching couldn't possibly possess so many resources.
Xi Mu seemed to have guessed what he was thinking and chuckled coldly: "Perhaps you're unaware, but I, previously did not belong to the Hundred Peaks Sect, but rather hailed from another Great Teaching.
Don't think we're oblivious to how many resources a normal Great Teaching should have."
The merger of the Hundred Peaks Sect with the Ten Thousand Immortals Sect isn't secretive, and Xi Mu has some fame in the Eastern Province. Before long, these members of Death River Sect will know her identity, so there's no need for concealment.
From another Great Teaching?
The Death River Sect Leader was briefly stunned; someone from a Great Teaching can't just freely join another Great Teaching?
Not to mention whether the Heavenly Dao allows it or not, leaving a Great Teaching to join another could incur Heavenly Dao's punishment.
Even if one could withstand that punishment, having someone this powerful, possessing seven Immortal Palaces, join another Great Teaching, would her previous Great Teaching agree?
Even between two Great Teachings with great rapport, the other would still not consent!
Besides, who would choose to join a Great Teaching lacking a True Immortal Realm for no reason!
Unless forced to join, and perhaps Immortal Lord Xi Mu's previous Great Teaching was on the verge of annihilation.
Indeed, the Hundred Peaks Sect utilized an Instant Millennium Pearl.
The Instant Millennium Pearl necessitates merging with or acquiring another Great Teaching. It's possible that the Hundred Peaks Sect merged with another, and thus Immortal Lord Xi Mu, from the acquired Great Teaching, had no choice but to join the Hundred Peaks Sect.
