Chapter 275: Chapter 170: I Have a Method_2

Those Dao Veins of the three prefectures, upon witnessing the prestige of the Taoist Immortal Path, the Path of Ten Directions, etc., wouldn’t they want to emulate them?
Looking at the nations in the world, the Dao Veins of these nations want to compete in the top three, all to gain benefits for their own Dao Veins.
The most useful venue for the countless Dao Veins to determine their victors would be events like the Inescapable Meeting, hosted by the Six Great Dao Veins of the Nine Provinces.
Therefore, the ambitious Dao Veins cannot wait to compete.
They want to express their own Dao Vein’s ideas in the two sections of lectures and debates, debate against the Dao Veins of the world, gain recognition by the Daoists in the world, and thus lay the foundation for the Qi Fate of their own Dao Veins.
That’s why in every Inescapable Meeting, or other similar events, the lecture and debate sections are the most fiercely contested and where the most conflicts arise.
There are quite a few Dao Veins that have lost in debates, their reputations in decline as a result. On the other hand, there are also numerous Dao Veins that have won and soared to great heights.
The rivalry between these winning and losing Dao Veins has led to deep-seated hatred, and who knows how many conflicts.
Upon saying this, Yang Jing couldn’t help but sigh with emotion, “Just by organizing one meeting, the six major Dao Veins managed to make the Dao Veins of the world compete against each other, truly amazing…”
Lord Yang didn’t finish his sentence.
But Lu Yuan was not a fool, he understood the meaning behind Yang Jing’s words.
It’s nothing more than the Six Great Dao Veins trying to prevent other Dao Veins from advancing and seizing their interests.
They deliberately set up such events to make the servants below fight over the leftovers that they throw them, creating deep hatreds and disunity among them.
Trapped in this situation, the Dao Veins in the world will never be able to unite and climb up to challenge their positions.
It has to be said, although such a move is a blatant scheme, those with some foresight can easily see through it.
However, at the same time, people are shortsighted by nature, or at least most of the time people have no choice but to be shortsighted.
Facing the leftovers thrown out by the Six Great Dao Veins, not fighting over them would be far-sighted.
But once your competitors get their hands on them, before you even get the chance to challenge the Six Great Dao Veins, you might be taken down by your competitors, never to rise again.
Therefore, for the sake of their own survival, the Dao Veins have no choice but to participate, even if they know they have no chance of success.
Everything is done for the sake of survival, after all.
“The lecture and debates will officially begin tomorrow.”
After discussing the interests behind the lectures and debates, the two had arrived at Ziyun Palace, where Daoists attending the conference were to stay. Yang Jing said to Lu Yuan, “Virtuous brother, you’d better find a place to rest first. I have something to do and won’t be able to keep you company.”
Lu Yuan hurriedly bowed, “If brother has things to do, then go ahead. I have gained much insight from your teachings these past few days, and I should taKe rms opportunity to retreat ror a wnne. Yang Jing nodded, “Then, I will take my leave.”
With that, he floated away.
Lu Yuan watched his departing figure, stood in place for a while, then turned and headed to an empty room nearby.
Just as he was doing so, a pair of eyes from the distance confirmed the room where he would stay before quickly turning and leaving.
Once inside his room, Lu Yuan brewed a cup of fragrant tea for himself and then sat at his desk, deep in thought.
Attending the conference this time had undoubtedly been the wisest decision he had made in recent years.
The biggest gain was obtaining a method to break through the Innate Realm, which had troubled Lu Yuan for a long time. He finally saw hope in breaking this barrier.
It could even be said that all he needed was to retreat for several months, or a year, and breaking through the Innate Realm should be quite possible.
As long as he achieves the Innate Realm, the threat of the Saintess of the Five Poisons, and any other threats, would instantly vanish.
With the threat to his life resolved, it naturally put him in a good mood. “And there’s also the court’s plan to cultivate ten Grandmasters.”
Lu Yuan felt a chill when he thought of this court strategy that he had discussed with Yang Jing in the past few days.
It was a huge undertaking for the court to gather and cultivate ten Inborn Grandmasters all at once – truly an ambition that swallowed the skies.
What’s even more terrifying is that the court has already gathered six Inborn Grandmasters and is in the process of cultivating one more. As for the progress of recruiting the remaining Jianghu Grandmasters, who knows when it’ll be completed.
It could be said that with each passing day, the court could have one more, two more, or even three more Grandmasters.
If the court were to succeed in this effort,
Then Lu Yuan’s original intention of ruling over Dongting and living as a carefree vassal,
Would probably be targeted by the court before he could even enjoy his carefree life, facing numerous Grandmasters and being wiped out in a single wave of attacks.
Wuyang Marquis Li Gui, after all, had lost his life to the assassination attempt by the Saintess of the Poison Sect and the Emperor of Shu, Li Xiong, due to a moment of negligence.
Lu Yuan didn’t think that he could have a lucky escape when facing the court’s carefully planned assassination.
The court has many second layer Innate experts after all.
Facing these veteran Innate masters, even if he could break through to the Innate realm, he might not have much power to resist.
Overcoming opponents from higher realms is a common event in novels, but Lu Yuan, who had been fighting on the Jianghu battlefields for so long, had never seen a real-life example.
Since such examples were not seen in reality, even though he was a traverser with certain advantages, Lu Yuan did not believe he could really overpower opponents from higher realms in combat..
