Zheng Sanjin has not been idle over the years, and the reach of his Wanxian Palace has been extending outward.
The Tianqing Sect had been completely parasitized by the Wanxian Palace. The disobedient Nascent Soul cultivators were placed on the upper sect's recruitment list by the temporary sect leader, True Lord Fuhai.
As for the Golden Core and Foundation Establishment, they went from resisting in the beginning to being reluctant to accept the attack under the resources of the Ten Thousand Immortals Palace, and now everyone is a brother of the Ten Thousand Immortals Palace.
Perhaps the only thing that belongs to the Tianqing Sect is the huge stone with the name engraved on it in front of the mountain gate.
Not only the Tianqing Sect, but also several nearby sea areas, now many third-level fairy islands and even some fourth-level fairy islands have purchased the Wanxian Palace's once-ridiculed logo formation.
If someone goes there without knowing, they might think it is the territory of the Palace of Ten Thousand Immortals.
Even the senior sect leaders could only turn a blind eye to this. There was nothing they could do. They were unreasonable and could not be defeated.
During one incident, a looting team from the Wanxian Palace was wiped out by the dominant force in a certain sea area, which angered Zheng Sanjin.
It happened that he was called up by the upper sect during that period, but he endured it. After all, there were Divine Transformation cultivators roaming around in the open sea, so it was better to be cautious.
Later, we learned from the Tianqing Sect that a major change had occurred in the inner sea, and there was no sign of cultivators coming out of the secret realm. In the future, those recruited cultivators might not be able to appear in the outer sea.
Zheng Sanjin finally stood up again.
It just so happened that he was doing a training exercise to formally announce his existence, and directly pulled out all the monks of the Ten Thousand Immortals Palace who had been depressed for a long time.
The dominant force had no idea or thought that the pirate leader they thought was just a mediocre person could be so violent.
Zheng Sanjin and Chu Yangming suddenly went to the overlord's door to block it.
Relying on his high combat power as a sword cultivator and the coordination of various formations, he blocked the enemy for nearly half a year.
After he left, the overlord forces came out and saw that the sea area was in chaos. The small and medium-sized forces in the sea area under their rule were almost completely looted by the group of monks from the Ten Thousand Immortals Palace.
There were also several tragic island destruction incidents.
What's more, two fourth-level immortal cities also suffered some harassment, and the losses were not small.
What to do? There is no way. The surrounding hegemonic forces are all relatively weak, and there are almost no peak Nascent Souls. What can a master similar to Tianqing Sect do?
He had to be ruthless and pay out of his own pocket to make up for some of the losses, but compared with the losses, it was less than one tenth of the total. After making up for the losses of some small and medium-sized forces, he also gained a fourth-tier immortal city.
Those fourth-tier immortal cities were also unlucky. They barely withstood the calamity of the Palace of Ten Thousand Immortals, but were ultimately stabbed in the back by their own overlords.
The entire sea area was devastated.
The Hall of Ten Thousand Immortals and the Sea of Chaos are officially showing their fangs in front of the big and small forces in the outer sea.
In addition, Zheng Sanjin's pleasure is to teach and train the two monks from the Sea Clan's Holy Temple.
They would start by torturing their muscles and bones, and then throw their sealed Nascent Souls into the City of Ten Thousand Immortals to broaden their horizons.
Then came all kinds of PUA. I am doing this for your own good, so that you don’t act so high and mighty. Instead, you should go among the lower-level monks and feel what they feel.
Although the two monks didn't understand why they had to do this, they had to bow their heads under the eaves and could only do this.
Gradually, it became a habit, and Zheng Sanjin began to carry out reverse brainwashing, instilling some extreme ideas from the perspective of the Sea Clan Temple.
He had experience in this, and then he started to tell them some short stories based on the situation on Gu Ming's side.
What with treacherous ministers killing loyal officials, what with the need to purge those rubbish for the sake of the sea clan's cause, they were told in detail what they should do when they encounter someone like Liu Yizi.
The rest is simple, just keep strengthening this extreme. Without any cultivation, they have no way to resist this kind of thing.
This is the great gift prepared for Liu Yizi. Gu Ming only needs to create a specific scenario, and these two will complete their "mission" of safeguarding the interests of the Sea Clan Holy Hall according to their own extreme ideas.
Once the Dingying method was solved, no trace of it could be found.
Moreover, they are really for the Sea Clan Holy Temple and are much more fanatical than those monks who keep saying that they yearn for the Sea Clan and want to protect the Sea Clan Holy Temple.
Zheng Sanjin often thought that no matter whether it was a human, a monk, or anything else, one should not be too extreme. This thing was sometimes triggered, and it was difficult to correct oneself without the help of external forces.
Just like these two fellow Taoists, they exist in this life.
In addition to their various arrangements, the four dominant forces in the outer sea and close to the inner sea were discussing their response to the Holy Temple, but this time the discussion was a little different.
"Even now, you still plan to continue the appeasement?"
"What should we do? What do you want us to do? Others may not know, but how can you not know what's going on in the sea?"
"Yes, if we take action now against the Sea Tribe Temple that even the Inland Sea cannot handle, wouldn't that be a direct enemy?"
"We still have to put the overall situation first."
"Bullshit, what is the overall situation? As I said before, we have no control over the inner sea, but the outer sea is under our noses. We give up a third-level fairy island today, a fourth-level fairy island tomorrow, and what about the day after tomorrow?"
"Sit down and talk. Why are you so anxious? It's not like what you said. We have to deal with it, but we can't use too drastic methods."
"Yes, the big powers in the Inland Sea seem to have acquiesced. What do you want us to do? We should just avoid the limelight when it is at its peak."
"Let's take a step back and say that we haven't suffered any major losses yet. We are just like those big powers in the Inland Sea, and we have acquiesced. If our fundamental interests are affected, we will just cut off their outstretched hands. This is equivalent to drawing a bottom line."
"That's right. Why do we stay in the outer sea? Isn't it for the continuation of the sect? To put it bluntly, it's really because the Sea Clan Holy Hall is so powerful that they finally seized the inner sea. We can also rely on our current strength to switch to other places."
"That makes sense. Whether it's the senior sects, those from the inland, the demon cultivators, or the Sea Tribe Holy Hall, there will always be a place for us in the end. It's enough for the sect to continue. There's no need to blindly follow those who disappear into the dust of history. Just go with the flow, fellow Daoist."
"You are just going with the flow. You guys just keep appeasing me. I have to go back and make some arrangements. Goodbye."
After a short silence, a cultivator spoke up, "Alas, I don't know whether it is a blessing or a curse for the uncles and uncles of Tianbo Sect to keep this fellow here."
"You're a little too impatient."
"That's right, right? At this moment, we just need to keep calm, but the more we do, the more loopholes there will be, and the more loopholes there are, the faster something will go wrong."
"The situation is turbulent. Now is not the time to treat the symptoms without addressing the root cause. Never mind. Let it be. The three of us need to be firm."
It was a dialogue between the dominant forces, and it seemed to end in an unpleasant manner, but a consensus was eventually reached, although it was ultimately reached by three parties.
The Tianbo Sect was excluded.
