Building a sect from scratch.

Chapter 219 Taiyi Ziwei Sect

Inside the solemn and majestic palace, several monks were gathered together discussing something.

The one sitting at the head of the table was a cultivator at the Nascent Soul stage, none other than the Grand Elder Si Yin Xianren of the Taiyi Ziwei Sect.

The Immortal Si Yin and the Immortal Si Yang were fellow disciples. When they chose their names, they were very confident. One called himself Si Yin, and the other called himself Si Yang. They were quite arrogant.

Compared to the immortal Si Yang, who was already halfway to immortality, the immortal Si Yin had only recently entered the Nascent Soul stage and had no hope of becoming an immortal in the near future.

The reason why Immortal Siyang has not yet become an immortal is because the power of the tribulation lightning is too great, and he himself cannot withstand it with his strength. Therefore, he decided to suppress his cultivation. The reason he has not yet undergone the tribulation is to prepare for a longer period of time and use some magical treasures and methods to successfully avoid it.

Such methods are common in the cultivation world. Not to mention, at least seven or eight out of ten rogue immortals "cultivated" their immortal bodies in this way.

"The Taiyin Sect has declared war on our sect."

The Immortal of Yin, with a gloomy expression, said, "Gentlemen, what do you think?"

An elder with white hair and beard standing nearby chuckled and said, "I have cultivated for hundreds of years and have never seen such foolish and overconfident people gathered together! How strange! How bizarre!"

Another elder, who was sitting to the side with his eyes closed, said softly upon hearing this, "Siyin, you called us all here just for this?"

Another elder was sitting in his seat, looking back and forth at the newly dyed nail polish on his hand, and asked lazily, "I remember, didn't someone go to their sect's grand ceremony a while ago to join in the fun?"

Elder Tushan said with a dark face, "Elder Qianzhi, no matter what, Bai Zhongqi is one of the best among the seventy-ninth generation disciples of the sect. How can you be so sarcastic?"

"Oh, I don't understand what you're saying." Elder Qianzhi withdrew his hand and smiled contemptuously: "I have a bad memory and can't remember so many people, is that a fault? There are so many disciples of the seventy-ninth generation, if I have to remember every Tom, Dick, and Harry, what's the point of their own masters? Heh, the best? The best who have disappeared without a trace, I don't know who's trying to pin this on Pinglin Peak!"

"you--"

The Immortal Si Yin slammed his hand on the table to stop the two, saying, "Alright! With a formidable enemy at hand, both of you should refrain from saying more!"

Elder Qianzhi chuckled and said, "A formidable enemy? Elder, you must be joking! A newly established sect already has a formidable enemy?"

"The Taiyin Sect is nothing to fear, but behind it stands the Taiyin God!"

At this point, the Immortal Si Yin's expression grew increasingly sinister—back when he and his senior brother were known as Si Yin and Si Yang respectively, he harbored ambitions. The position of Taiyin had been vacant for a long time, and then, out of nowhere, a "Taiyin Goddess" appeared! How could this not infuriate him? But as much as he was furious, there was nothing he could do. Divine positions were predetermined, and unless the Taiyin Goddess perished, he had no chance of ascending to the position, not to mention that even becoming an immortal was still a long way off for him!

Elder Qianzhi snorted, "So what if it's the Taiyin God? Immortals and gods can't easily intervene; that's the rule. Just because we're afraid doesn't mean they aren't. Besides, they attacked out of nowhere, so they're even less likely to intervene! It's just a farce. With Immortal Wantong, Immortal Siyang, and you, the Grand Elder, are you afraid of them?"

The elder who had been resting with his eyes closed said calmly, "Immortal Wantong recently took away all the ranks and titles within the sect, he's probably planning to leave the Ziwei Sect." Upon hearing this, Elder Qianzhi clapped his hands in delight and said, "Serves you right! You've been trying to pin the blame on his disciple, you should have known this day would come!"

The Tu Shan elder coldly asked, "What? Qianzhi, are you also planning to betray the sect?"

Elder Qianzhi clutched her chest, feigning fear, and said in a coquettish voice, "Oh, this humble woman wouldn't dare! I'm just a mere True Person, how could I dare to betray the sect? You damned fox, don't make false accusations!"

Who are you insulting?!

"Whoever answers me, I'll curse them!"

The Immortal Si Yin could no longer contain himself and roared, "Both of you, take a break! If you can't behave, then relinquish your positions as elders! If you want to fight, then go outside and fight!"

"Humph!"

The two snorted in unison, but ultimately refrained from further argument due to the imposing presence of the Yin Immortal.

It's not uncommon for these two to dislike each other.

Elder Qianzhi's real name is Wei Congrong. He comes from the Wei family, a family of cultivators. The Wei family was originally affiliated with the Penglai Sect, but later, due to some conflicts with some cultivators in the Penglai Sect, they went to Wuzhizhou to establish their own sect. However, they did not establish a sect, but continued to interact with various sects and forces through family inheritance. Of course, the Wei family dared to do this because of their own skills in alchemy and medicine making.

Kui Congrong broke with her family at a young age and accidentally traveled to Zhongzhou, where she joined the Taiyi Ziwei Sect by chance. She dared to act arrogantly, sometimes not even giving face to the Immortal Siyin, precisely because she had taken over almost all of the Taiyi Ziwei Sect's supply of elixirs.

As for Elder Tushan, as his name suggests, he is a descendant of the Tushan clan of Qingqiu Kingdom. For some unknown reason, he left Qingqiu Kingdom and joined the Taiyi Ziwei Sect. Because of his high cultivation level and his keen understanding of human relationships, he has a good relationship with all the other elders except for Elder Qianzhi, which allows him to maintain his position as an elder without any background or power.

Coincidentally, Elder Tushan was also skilled in alchemy. Although not as skilled as Kui Congrong, she still had some expertise. In addition, Immortal Siyin was willing to promote her, which led to the two of them competing against each other.

Although on the surface, Immortal Siyin seems to always side with Elder Qianzhi because of the sect's dependence on Kui Congrong, in reality, Elder Tushan's momentum is growing stronger and stronger. In recent decades, he has recruited an unprecedented number of disciples, almost equal to the total number of disciples from all other sects combined. He has also begun to gradually erode Elder Qianzhi's power and take over the supply of low-grade pills within the sect!
It seems that because of this, Kui Congrong has become increasingly displeased with the Tushan Elder. Whenever they meet, the two have a long argument, and it is not uncommon for them to even fight.

However, this time, since they were in the main hall of the sect, with many elders watching and the Grand Elder, Immortal Si Yin, speaking up, the two of them, no matter how much they disliked each other, didn't have the heart to continue their outburst.

Seeing that the two had finally quieted down, the Immortal Si Yin slowly spoke: "Each of you will send one hundred disciples, and my Si Yin Peak will send three hundred. Tomorrow at noon, after annihilating those who came, we will go straight to the Taiyin Sect's lair! Any objections?"

“Yes! If we’re going to send out disciples, we should send out the same number of disciples equally,” Elder Qianzhi said. “I’ve heard that the Taiyin Sect has a magical treasure called the Douxuan Mirror, forged by an ancient god. I wonder if we obtain the mirror, will it be put into the main treasury or belong to our respective sects?”
