Chapter 406: 353: The Rising Alliance, The Person Not to be Ignored

However, now that Xue Wuheng wanted to dispel them, Pei Xuanjing still didn’t mind. But if he took the blame for him, the slight compensation given by the other party was far from sufficient.

Having seen quite a few skills, Pei Xuanjing did not have much knowledge about the skills of the Brahman Gate and the Demonic Cult. This time he planned to demand some of the demonic skills to enhance his Taoyun proficiency.

After his life simulation was completed this time, Pei Xuanjing’s strength had risen to the Fourth Level of the Spiritual Realm, so the amount of Taoyun value he needed for a life simulation had greatly increased.

The required amount of Taoyun value for a simulation increased sharply from the original two hundred thousand to two million.

Two million Taoyun points for a simulation, such a massive amount almost gave Pei Xuanjing a headache. He was fretting over how to get the Taoyun value when Xue Wuheng voluntarily delivered it to his door. It would be a pity not to profit from this opportunity.

“Yes, I will take note of it!” Pang Hong nodded.

Pei Xuanjing continued to ask, “Are there any other matters? After all, the Demonic Cult has once again merged. The emergence of such a behemoth can’t possibly go unnoticed by the other major forces.”

“Master is wise.” Pang Hong laughed.

Pei Xuanjing wasn’t concerned with Pang Hong’s flattery, he simply smiled and listened to his explanation.

Since the Demonic Cult had already been re-established, its resurgence indeed led to a series of reactions, even without any action yet.

If it had been in the past, the merger might have been overlooked. But now, the united forces of the Demonic Cult were far from being the first to unite. The actual united forces were those led by Pei Xuanjing, which included the Shenxiao Sect, True Martial Sect, Dragon Tiger Mountain, Chunyang Sect, Baiyun Temple, and Bai Xiaosheng, among others.

During Pei Xuanjing’s retreat, some Taoist forces gradually approached them with the intention to join the alliance, especially forces like the Four Symbols Sword Sect, which had a deep relationship with the True Martial Sect.

In just a few years, their alliance’s influence rapidly grew to almost include all the Taoist forces, becoming a true behemoth.

If their union could previously only compete with the imperial court of Great Ming, their current strength was not inferior to the power controlled by the imperial court, and even seemed to have the upper hand.

With such a behemoth in the foreground, and the newly reunited Demonic Cult in the background, the other major forces could no longer remain idle.

After all, if they continued this way, these large forces that had once spanned provinces and paths would’ve been demoted from top-tier forces to second-rate forces, something they couldn’t accept.

The first to respond were the noble families. They had the keenest sense of these matters. After their secret discussions, they announced the establishment of the Family Alliance, becoming the third united major force in the world.

The noble families, the Five Surnames and Seven Sects, were already top-tier forces. Coupled with some other forces not weaker than them, their union left all parties astounded.

“After the noble families announced their union, the Buddhism School started making moves.” Pang Hong said softly.

Pei Xuanjing raised an eyebrow with a hint of interest, “Oh?”

In Pei Xuanjing’s memory, his encounters with the unusually low-profile Buddhism School of the Daming World were almost non-existent, except during the Netherworld Book projection dream he had six hundred years ago on Taihe Mountain.

It must be noted that in this era, although the Diamond Gate of Northwest Dao had some ties to the Buddhism School, there was deep-seated enmity between them and couldn’t be counted as part of the Buddhism School.

During the coronation of the new emperor, even though they were invited, they didn’t respond at all. It was surprising to see that they could no longer remain idle.

According to Pang Hong, when the Demonic Cult re-emerged, the two major factions of Buddhism, the North Zen Sect, and the South Zen Sect, had shown some minor reactions. Since primarily the Taoist School had split the Demonic Cult at that time, they didn’t harbor significant grudges against the Demonic Cult. Instead, under similar oppression by the Taoist School, they seemed somewhat sympathetic.

However, when the Taoist School, Demonic Cult, and noble families consecutively formed alliances, the always calm Buddhism School finally couldn’t sit still. Master from various Buddhist temples gathered at the North Zen Sect and discussed for a long time before dispersing. From this, everybody understood their intentions.

In addition, some other forces were also merging, but none of them were on par with the four major alliances and were hence insignificant.

Pang Hong said, “The current situation is such: apart from the Great Ming imperial court, there are our Taoist School, the Demonic Cult, the Family Alliance and the Buddhism School-led alliance. The rest are not worth mentioning.”

Over the years, under Pei Xuanjing’s guidance, Pang Hong had also grown a lot, having his own insights into the situation of world affairs.

“Mm, not bad!” Pei Xuanjing first uttered a word of praise, but then shook his head and added, “However, you’ve overlooked one group, and their power should not be underestimated.”

“One overlooked group?” Pang Hong was puzzled.

The information he had gathered was analyzed from the news provided by Bai Xiaosheng. He believed he had covered all the world forces and couldn’t have missed any.

Could there be any hidden forces?

And since his master had secluded himself for five years, taking no interest in worldly affairs, how would he know of any hidden forces?

Pei Xuanjing laughed, “Do you still remember the Mire Sect?”

“Ah!” Pang Hong was stunned, he incredulously said, “Master, do you think it’s the Mire Sect? But there hasn’t been any news about the Mire Sect for many years.”

“Indeed!” Pei Xuanjing nodded. “Zhao Baiyang shouldn’t be underestimated. Precisely because there hasn’t been any news about the Mire Sect for so many years is why it’s necessary to take note. A strong individual who dares to unite with others and assassinate the emperor in Tiandu is certainly worth attention.”

Among the people Pei Xuanjing had contacted, although Zhao Baiyang’s perception and viewpoint contradicted Pei Xuanjing’s, he never looked down on the other party.

The White Lotus Sect had been divided for many years, but Zhao Baiyang had always wanted to merge the branches of the White Lotus Sect again. Considering the impressive heritage of the Mire Sect, if they were to unite with other branches once again, they would rise with the tide, achieving a new level of power.

Furthermore, after Pei Xuanjing slayed the Ghost Emperor of Fengdu, Zhao Baiyang took over Fengdu’s influence and gathered the remaining Diamond Gate’s top warriors under his command.

All these powers, seemingly insignificant when scattered, would be an unstoppable behemoth when united.
