“Thanks to the guidance of the Tower Lord, the opportunity at the Bai Duan Mountain Range has been nearly resolved,”
Duan Wulu cupped his hands and spoke.
When this topic was brought up,
Both of the Saints felt a bit embarrassed.
This time,
In their eyes,
The Da Luo Sword Sect had truly gained an enormous advantage.
Four Saint-level weapons, traded for a Saint, along with countless other resources—such a windfall was rare, almost impossible to find anywhere else.
Although the process of seizing the opportunity had been somewhat tortuous,
In the end,
The Da Luo Sword Sect had proven superior, outmaneuvering both the Nine Nether Demon Sect and the Chi Yan Sacred Land, ultimately securing the opportunity at Greenwater Cliff.
Without this favor, how could they have rushed all the way from Bai Duan Mountain Range to help the Heavenly Mechanism Tower resist the Yao Guang Sacred Land?
“Since that is the case, the restoration of the Da Luo Sword Sect's former glory is surely just around the corner,”
Li Yun smiled and said.
This was just a polite remark.
The Da Luo Sword Sect had lost a Great Sage; expecting them to recover their vitality quickly was somewhat unrealistic.
“Tower Lord is joking,”
Duan Wulu gave a bitter smile and continued, “The reason my junior brother and I have come today is partly to express our gratitude for your kind intentions regarding my unworthy disciple.”
“The second reason...”
“Is for the future of the Da Luo Sword Sect.”
Previously,
Ren Qingtu had told them both that the Tower Lord of the Heavenly Mechanism Tower had the ability to alter the heavens. As long as the price was right, he could help the Da Luo Sword Sect produce another Great Sage.
The authenticity of this matter concerned the life and death of the Da Luo Sword Sect, so they couldn't afford not to make this trip.
For the future of the Da Luo Sword Sect, even if it meant offending the Yao Guang Sacred Land, they didn't care.
“Oh?”
Li Yun smiled faintly and said, “The future of the Da Luo Sword Sect...”
He paused for a moment, his voice full of meaning as he continued:
“Since the Sect Master Ren has mentioned the Heavenly Mechanism Tower to you, I presume he has also told you of the rules of the Tower. As for the future of the Da Luo Sword Sect, the value of this information...”
“You two might not be able to afford the price.”
The opportunity to create a Great Sage.
The rarity and value of such an opportunity could not be overstated.
It was the foundation of a Sacred Land.
Even the combined wealth of two Saints might not be enough.
If the system didn't deduct Heavenly Mechanism points, based on their actions today and the position they had taken, Li Yun could have given them such an opportunity as a gift.
Unfortunately,
Li Yun himself was currently as poor as could be; he hadn't yet reached the point where he could casually give away a Great Sage opportunity.
“Does the Tower Lord mean that there is indeed a way to help the Da Luo Sword Sect restore its former glory?”
Duan Wuyou's eyes flashed with a glint of sharpness, stroking his beard as he spoke.
As the saying goes,
“Seeing is believing.”
When they had first heard about this from Ren Qingtu, they had been skeptical. But now, hearing it directly from the Tower Lord, both Saints could no longer remain calm.
The question of price seemed secondary.
The accumulated resources of the Da Luo Sword Sect over countless years—there were still some things they could part with.
As long as
There was indeed a solution here, that was enough!
“Don't just think of restoring the Da Luo Sword Sect's former glory; advancing to an even higher level is not difficult either,”
Li Yun glanced at Duan Wuyou and continued, “It's normal for you to doubt, just like when your disciple came here—he was also skeptical, but didn't he eventually become a Saint?”
“Just like you, Duan Wuyou, you've been stuck at the peak of the Saint level for hundreds of years, unable to make the breakthrough. If you could resolve the flaw in your state of mind and reach the peak of the Saint realm...”
“With your foundation, Duan Wuyou, I believe it won't be long before the Da Luo Sword Sect adds another Saint King!”
“Huh??”
Duan Wuyou's body shook, and his eyes widened in disbelief.
This was information he had never shared with anyone. Only he himself knew that his state of mind had a flaw. How did this Tower Lord figure that out?
He knew that the Tower Lord had deep insights and could see through a person's cultivation, but to perceive such a hidden flaw—this was truly terrifying.
“Does the Tower Lord know how to resolve the flaw in my state of mind?”
Duan Wuyou asked, probing.
“This is simple. I'll tell you once you provide five Saint-level items,”
Li Yun extended his hand with a smile.
A flaw in the state of mind.
This was not a demonic obsession, but rather a mental block. Once the problem was understood and the correct insight achieved, everything else would fall into place.
If it couldn't be understood, it wasn't a big issue—at worst, the cultivation would remain stagnant.
For someone like Duan Wuyou,
The issue was clearly not small, but not a major problem either.
After all, many people spent their whole lives in such a dead end and never managed to escape it.
Duan Wuyou: “...”
The price was a bit too steep, to be honest.
He was well-known for having “empty sleeves” in the Da Luo Sword Sect—he had nothing but his strength and a Saint-level weapon.
To ask him to provide five Saint-level items was harder than killing him.
His junior brother, however, was wealthy and had even served as the Da Luo Sect Master in the past. But he had left in a hurry a few days ago, so it was unlikely he had brought anything valuable with him.
“Tower Lord, could you possibly hold on to this information for now and allow us to return to the Da Luo Sword Sect first?”
Duan Wulu spoke at the right moment.
“Of course.”
Li Yun nodded.
“Then, we will take our leave for today.”
The two stood up, quickly bowing in farewell and leaving.
Watching their retreating figures,
Li Yun's smile grew wider.
He hadn't expected that Ren Qingtu wasn't just helping him with business, but had also brought in a major client.
Their master had come.
If their master had come, then someone with even higher status couldn't be far behind, right?
He estimated
It wouldn't be long before the Saint King of the Da Luo Sword Sect would also be unable to sit still.
