Chapter 5776
He turned his gaze to Lie Tian and asked, “Lie Tian, the Myriad Souls Demon Sect has been rampant in the Tenth Heaven for many years, arrogant and domineering. Hasn’t it made any mortal enemies?”
“Or rather, is there any force with serious conflicts of interest with them, where they are wary of each other, and even have occasional friction, but only maintain a superficial peace because their strengths are comparable?”
Upon hearing this, Lie Tian was slightly taken aback, and then fell into deep thought.
Elder Xiong Tuo, standing next to him, suddenly brightened up, as if he had seen a ray of dawn in endless darkness.
He quickly stepped forward, his voice somewhat hurried with excitement: “Yes! Of course they are! The Myriad Souls Demon Sect acts domineeringly and has made many enemies! But if we talk about the deepest grudges and the closest strength, enough to threaten their foundation, it has to be the Profound Heaven Sword Sect!”
“The Profound Heaven Sword Sect?”
Kai raised an eyebrow, revealing an interested expression.
“Indeed!”
Lie Tian was also enlightened, nodding affirmatively and quickening his pace: “The Xuan Tian Sword Sect is located in the Ten Thousand Swords Mountain Range, forming a tripartite balance with my Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range and the Crimson Blood Plain of the Demon Sect.”
“Most of the Sword Sect cultivators are upright and unyielding, cultivating the supremely yang and powerful Xuanmen sword path. Although they don’t have deep ties with my beast race, they generally keep to themselves.” ”
However, they are natural enemies with the Ten Thousand Souls Demon Sect, which specializes in Yin Soul Demonic Arts and acts in a treacherous and cruel manner! Their cultivation methods clash, and their ideologies are contradictory!”
Xiong Tuo eagerly added details, as if pouring all his hopes into this name: “According to reliable records, about three hundred years ago, the two sects fought an unprecedented war over the ownership of an ancient sword cultivator’s cave dwelling.”
“Both sides lost several Heavenly Immortal Realm elders, and countless disciples were killed or wounded. Although a ceasefire agreement was signed afterward, maintaining peace on the surface, the friction, probing, and sabotage behind the scenes never ceased.”
“In order to compete for newly discovered spirit stone veins and rare medicinal fields, conflicts of all sizes occur almost every few years.”
“However, since the strength of both sides is roughly equal, neither side has an absolute certainty of defeating the other, which has created a fragile balance. They are wary of each other, yet unable to do anything to each other.”
“The Xuan Tian Sword Sect… sword cultivators… supremely yang and strong, able to counter Yin Soul Demonic Arts, their strengths are evenly matched, and they are wary of each other…”
Kai’s eyes flashed with wisdom, and the corners of his mouth slightly turned up, outlining an arc of complete control. “Very good, absolutely perfect, they are the ones.”
“Senior, what do you mean?”
Lie Tian seemed to have guessed Kai’s thoughts, his heart pounding, feeling that this idea was both bold and crazy.
“It’s very simple.”
Kai stood up, hands behind his back, his gaze seemingly piercing through the barriers of the hall, traversing thousands of mountains and rivers, seeing the Ten Thousand Swords Mountain Range, like countless sharp swords pointing to the sky.
“Aren’t they going to launch a full-scale attack? Then we’ll cut off their supply lines. In their supposedly secure homeland, we’ll light a fire—a fire strong enough to attract attention.”
“We’ll make the Xuantian Sword Sect attack them, forcing the Soul Fiend to retreat and defend, even… making these two tigers tear each other apart, leaving them both severely weakened!”
“Make the Xuantian Sword Sect attack the Myriad Souls Demon Sect?” The elders below gasped. This plan was even more shocking than they had imagined!
It was like dancing on a knife’s edge, playing with fire between two giants!
“That’s right.”
Kai’s tone was firm, filled with unwavering confidence. “As long as the conflict is sharp enough, the evidence is conclusive enough, and the situation is urgent enough, the Xuantian Sword Sect Master, Ling Yunzi, will have no choice but to act.”
“Sometimes, a seemingly solid balance only needs a perfectly timed spark to ignite the entire powder keg.”
