Early in the morning, Liang Sheng pushed away the six or seven Jade Lotuses lying on top of him, and left nonchalantly under their resentful gazes.

Previously, when the entrance to the Cultivation World was found at Xigu Pass guarded by disciples of the Hua Tian Sect and even Chen Fengchen appeared in the secular world, he had no choice but to return to the mortal realm reluctantly.

After investigating and confirming that there were no problems with his conjecture, Liang Sheng decided to go to the Capital.

However, he did not go directly to the Imperial Palace in the Capital, as Chen Fengchen most likely had already rushed over there.

Since there were Hua Tian Sect disciples in the Imperial Palace, why should he go there? Therefore, Liang Sheng’s actual destination was to Zhou Village on the outskirts of the Capital.

He knew he could get the information he wanted there because they were part of the Great Zhou Royal Family. They must be aware of the current situation.

When Liang Sheng arrived at Zhou Village on the outskirts of the Capital, it appeared unchanged, almost identical to the situation before he left, and they were still acting in a lowkey and cautious manner.

Liang Sheng remained hidden for three days, and through the Zhou Village Patriarch, he finally figured out what had happened recently and learned the cause of the situation.

As far back as the fifteenth year of Weizong, the Great Zhou Royal Family had managed to send fifteen of their young members to join the Hua Tian Sect due to their impressive performance around the hundred-year mark.

The Hua Tian Sect was extremely satisfied with these young Zhou family members, granting three of them Inner Sect disciple quotas and all others ordinary disciple statuses, with no outer sect disciples.

After all, among the Zhou family members was a senior who reached Foundation Establishment within just eighty-six years, in whom the Hua Tian Sect held great expectations.

If it were just this, there would be nothing to talk about, but this year an accident happened: two more of the first batch of Zhou family disciples who were sent to the Hua Tian Sect successfully reached Foundation Establishment.

This meant that three of the ten Zhou family disciples from the first batch reached Foundation Establishment within just a bit more than a hundred years, an astonishing success rate.

However, the straw that broke the camel’s back was the Refining Device Peak Elder.

In these hundred-plus years, he had successfully refined two spirit tools, a feat that shocked the other Three Sects and Six Orders.

The Upper Green Sect was well aware of the root cause of this and knew the role the Great Zhou Dynasty played in it.

It was not just the fortune of the secular Great Zhou in supplying the dynasty luck to the Hua Tian Sect, but also the Zhou family members who enjoyed heavenly favor in their cultivation journey.

There had already been friction between the Upper Green Sect and the Hua Tian Sect regarding secular matters, and before the Dayan period, the secular realm was an affiliated sect of the Upper Green Sect.

Moreover, ever since the manager of the Hua Tian Sect was cursed to death by Liang Sheng’s Nail-Head Seven Arrows Technique, misunderstandings between the two sides continued to grow.

A series of problems led to the ultimate result: Great General of Zhou Zhou Yikao was killed by a disciple of the Upper Green Sect infiltrating the mortal world.

It is true, the so-called critical injury that Zhou Yikao sustained was actually a bewildering array set up by the Great Zhou Royal Family, a testimony to their caution and prudence in their actions.

On the night of Zhou Yikao’s death, Zhou Weizong and the patriarch of the Zhou Village in the outskirts of the Capital met to discuss and quickly decided to set off immediately for Mount Kunwu to strike the Nine Ding.

With their cultivation level as Innate Masters, it would only take them one day to reach Mount Kunwu, and it happened that Zhou Kang was in the market at this moment.

After receiving the news, Zhou Kang directly went to the secular world out of concern for Great Zhou’s situation and made contact with the royal family of the Zhou lineage.

Subsequently, the plan to have Zhou Yikao critically injured and brought into the Capital was hatched. They deliberately spread this news, so if any disciples of the Upper Green Sect were still in the secular world, they might appear directly in the Imperial Palace to investigate the cause, given the arrogance cultivators usually held towards the secular world.

As for Chen Fengchen and others, they were dispatched to the mortal world at the first opportunity due to Hua Tian Sect’s importance to the Great Zhou secular world and Chen Fengchen’s familiarity with it.

This resulted in Liang Sheng being blocked by them outside of Xigu Pass and being unable to return to the Cultivation World, caught in the crossfire between them.

In any case, Great Zhou, or more accurately, the center of the whirlpool formed in the Great Zhou Capital, prompted Liang Sheng to leave Zhou Village and head straight to Jinzhou City after obtaining insider information.

Since he was shocked by the events, Liang Sheng decided to console himself by visiting the Yichun Building. At this moment, he could only be glad that the crisis hadn’t escalated and, for the time being, the secular world was still relatively safe with only Chen Fengchen, a Foundation Establishment cultivator, being deployed by the Upper Green Sect.

If it was only a Foundation Establishment cultivator, even at the late stage, Liang Sheng would not be afraid. After all, with the Nail-Head Seven Arrows Technique, he had nothing to worry about as long as he hid in the shadows.

As for Golden Core Daoists?

That would be absolutely impossible!

Unless the Upper Green Sect was ready for a life-and-death battle with the Hua Tian Sect, they would not use Golden Core Daoists. When Golden Core Daoists were used, it would mean that both sides would fight to the death.

Liang Sheng hid in Jinzhou City, waiting for the storm to pass before returning to the Cultivation World because he still needed to find the recipe for the Golden Yuan Pill.

Breaking through from the Foundation Establishment Realm to the Golden Core required the assistance of a Golden Yuan Pill, just as breaking through from the Qi Refining Realm to the Foundation Establishment Realm required a Foundation Establishment Pill.

Obtaining the Golden Yuan Pill was even more difficult than obtaining the Foundation Establishment Pill. Naturally, he needed to prepare in advance, and he had no idea how long it would take to get the pill formula for the Golden Yuan Pill.

Liang Sheng shook his head at this moment and couldn’t help but let out a bitter laugh. It was a bit too early for him to think about these things, as he still had a long way to go before breaking through to the Golden Core realm..
