Taoist Xiuyu chuckled, “Fellow Taoist, do you need information about the Taixu Immortal Alliance? This organization isn’t weaker than the Great Lunar Palace, but now all it takes is a mere 300 medium-grade Spirit Stones to get the information. It’s quite affordable.”
Listening to Taoist Xiuyu’s tone, Su Yu asked in surprise, “Aren’t you worried about the Taixu Immortal Alliance?”
Taoist Xiuyu calmly replied, “Worries would be of no use. My Heavenly Ruin Hall is just a small intelligence organization. However, Fellow Taoist here should be more careful. Because you possess the extraordinary Golden Cicada Method which has extraordinary effects on cultivation, the Taixu Immortal Alliance may possibly be keeping an eye on you, or others like Luo Qianyu or Fairy Fengling.”
After some thought, Su Yu agreed. Indeed, the power of the Book Pavilion was more astonishing than he initially thought. Considering the mystery and power of Heavenly Ruin Hall, it could be even more fearsome than Taixu Immortal League. There really was no need to worry.
As for him
“I shouldn’t need to fear either.” Su Yu thought of the Book Pavilion’s Identity Token that he had with him.
He almost forgot he was under that kind of protection.
The Taixu Immortal Alliance might trouble him because of his breakthrough into the Core Formation Realm.
But would they dare to provoke the Book Pavilion?
Probably not.
However, Su Yu didn’t dare to gamble. What if the Taixu Immortal Alliance consisted of daring bullies or fools?
So, after some hesitation, Su Yu chose to purchase the intelligence from Taoist Xiuyu.
The fee—payable later.
Taoist Xiuyu immediately transmitted the information: “The Taixu Immortal Alliance is a grand power that emerged thousands of years ago. Its Immortal Mansion is called Purple Light Mansion. Its founding patriarch was the True Monarch Taixu, an expert in manipulating the soul, known for his myriad methods like pills, talismans, and formations.”
“Unlike the Great Lunar Palace, the Taixu Immortal Alliance is an external faction. They have eighteen branches in the Purple Light Mansion, accepting various factions and cultivators into their alliance, turning no one away.”
“In terms of size, it’s twenty to thirty times larger than the Great Lunar Palace.”
“Furthermore, the Alliance Hierarch of the Taixu Immortal Alliance is likely a True Monarch. Their previous Hierarch, who went into seclusion over two hundred years ago, might have reached his life limit.”
“There are over thirty Core Formation cultivators in the Taixu Immortal Alliance.”
“The number of Foundation Establishment cultivators has exceeded one thousand and there might be over a hundred thousand under the Foundation Establishment Realm.”
Long after, Taoist Xiuyu’s voice finally fell silent and the Intelligence on the Taixu Immortal Alliance was fully unveiled.
It took Su Yu quite a while to digest the information before he exclaimed in astonishment, “So many cultivators?”
Taoist Xiuyu explained, “The rules differ. The Great Lunar Palace has strict regulations on recruitment, accepting only geniuses. Their unity is the strongest. On the other hand, the Taixu Immortal Alliance is more lax. The main alliance and its different branches work independently, only heeding the Hierarch’s orders.”
“Although the Taixu Immortal Alliance has more members, it doesn’t necessarily mean they are stronger than the Great Lunar Palace. Moreover, the majority of its members have weak cultivation levels with a majority of them in the Qi Refinement Realm.”
I see.
Su Yu began to understand after this explanation.
Perhaps this compared to the difference between the Beggar Sect and the Wudang Sect.
No wonder the Taixu Immortal Alliance was powerful enough to sneak into the Great Lunar Mansion and cause chaos. They did indeed have a large number of people able to execute such a plan.
Even though the Taixu Immortal Alliance’s unity was loose and their cohesion low, having so many cultivators would make them difficult to deal with.
The disorder caused by the Taixu Immortal Alliance would not be easily resolved.
Knowing this, Su Yu felt an increased sense of urgency. Previously, he had not decided when to visit the Yunjian Sect, but now that he knew the situation of Taixu Immortal Alliance, he felt it was time.
If Luo Qianyu could arrange for him and the likes of Yu Ke’er to cultivate in the Yunjian Sect’s secret domains, that would be much safer.
Even True Monarchs might not be able to breach the defensive line of the Yunjian Sect.
At this point, Taoist Xiuyu added, “I’m not concerned about the Taixu Immortal Alliance, but should other powers like the Nine Souls Demonic Palace and Phoenix Fall Residence join in the fray… It’s not an impossibility, so you need to be prepared for every eventuality.”
Afterwards, Taoist Xiuyu didn’t send any more transmissions.
Su Yu’s pupils constricted slightly. What Taoist Xiuyu mentioned was a possibility.
The Nine Souls Demonic Palace had previously attempted to lay their hands on the Golden Jade Fairy Gate relics, and Phoenix Fall Residence was not a soft touch either. A cultivator family from another jurisdiction had previously attempted to attack the Yunjian Sect.
Kicking them when they are down might not be out of the question.
If such an event occurs, could the Great Lunar Palace handle it?
Black Rock Mountain.
The Cloud Tigers appeared outside the Yu Family’s residence. The terrifying aura did not frighten the Yu Family. Instead, they cheered and felt elated. The heavy burden in their hearts lightened a little.
On top of the third Spiritual Mountain owned by the Yu Family, Su Yu saw Yu Baihe, who was extremely weakened, lying unconscious on a jade bed.
Frowning, he placed a hand on Yu Baihe’s shoulder browsing through his condition.
Upon checking, Su Yu sighed internally.
Yu Baihe’s soul was majorly damaged, having only one tenth left, and was dissipating quickly at an alarming rate. He might only survive for a month or two at most.
In this condition, with a near scattered soul, it would be impossible to bring him back.
‘This was brutal. They were clearly targeting his soul’s eradication.’ Su Yu felt a surge of anger well up inside him but he did not show it outwardly. After all, Yu Baihe was his father-in-law. How could he not be angry?
He secretly circulated the Golden Cicada Method. His powerful soul force quietly poured into Yu Baihe, nourishing his extremely weak soul.
