Top-level Qi Luck: Leading My Clan to Cultivate-Chapter 1250 - 651 Movements of All Parties
Chapter 1250: Chapter 651 Movements of All Parties
Currently, Hua Zhenxing and others have retreated to Yunshui Marketplace, relying on the Defensive Great Formation of this critical location and its unique geographical features to recuperate and restore strength.
As for the territories previously occupied, the four major factions have gradually abandoned control of them.
Immediately afterward, the invading forces from the four factions within the Liang Family Territory began converging at Yunshui Marketplace, seemingly preparing to gather their strength for a future showdown with the Liang Family.
As for the Liang Family’s strategy, it primarily focuses on recovery and restoration.
After all, this unprecedented war has been ongoing for over two years.
Especially after the recent major battle, the Liang Family suffered heavy losses, with almost everyone bearing injuries to some extent and experiencing significant personal exhaustion.
Since the war ended a month ago, the majority of participants have yet to fully recover.
Therefore, even though the four major factions of Yuanchen Sect have relinquished most of the occupied Liang Family territories, the Liang Family has not deployed significant forces to reclaim the lost lands, merely taking control of the territories closest to their heartland for the time being.
Additionally, the Liang Family established a sufficiently large buffer zone and arranged numerous spies to monitor the movements of Hua Zhenxing and the others at all times.
It is foreseeable that Hua Zhenxing and his forces will not retreat easily, and this war, which involves many factions, will not come to an end.
In all likelihood, it won’t be more than half a year before Hua Zhenxing and his group return in full force.
Moreover, it’s expected that the four factions of Yuanchen Sect will further mobilize troops, strengthening the forces attacking the Liang Family in a last-ditch effort.
These overt plans are so obvious that even if Liang Shaoguang didn’t articulate them, Lin Tianming could easily guess them.
In his mind, if he were in Hua Zhenxing’s position, he’d probably act just as recklessly.
After all, the Liang Family already possesses the foundational potential to break through to the Nascent Soul Stage, and all obstacles have essentially been eliminated.
Once someone from the Liang Family successfully crosses that threshold, all schemes and strategies against them will dissolve into nothingness.
The inevitable outcome awaiting the factions of Yuanchen Sect would be extinction or severe damage, forcing them to flee far away.
Under these circumstances, the reactions and arrangements of the opposing factions are quite understandable.
Likewise, the cautious stance of the Liang Family is equally reasonable.
Recognizing this and assessing the current situation, both the Yuanchen Sect’s factions and the Liang Family are recuperating and accumulating strength for an impending, potentially more intense battle.
It is foreseeable that the next major conflict will see both sides exhaust their full power, with a fierce battle that might very well lead to the ultimate showdown.
Either the Liang Family will secure victory, or they will face destruction and severe losses.
The same applies to the factions of Yuanchen Sect: either they will suffer heavy losses or annihilation, or they will triumph in the final battle, thereby crushing the Liang Family’s hard-won chance to ascend.
As an outsider looking in, there’s no absolute right or wrong in either side’s position.
It must be understood that the history of the Cultivation World over the millennia has always adhered to the survival of the fittest and the law of the jungle.
From the perspective of the Yuanchen Sect factions, if the Liang Family grows excessively strong and gains an overwhelming advantage, it will disrupt the balance among the six major powers of Jinfeng Nation.
From the perspective of the Liang Family, however, their pursuit of greater power to advance their family’s legacy is a normal and justifiable course of action.
Yet the Cultivation World operates on a principle of fierce competition over limited foundational resources.
Even if the Liang Family bears no malicious intent and refrains from eliminating its rivals entirely, the factions of Yuanchen Sect are compelled to stop the Liang Family’s rise for fear of their own interests being compromised.
This is particularly reminiscent of the situation in Wei Kingdom.
For the time being, the Lin Family has not openly drawn hostility from Zhenyang Sect and Myriad Medicine Valley.
But that’s only because the Lin Family isn’t strong enough yet, at least on the surface, to instill dread or trepidation in Zhenyang Sect and Myriad Medicine Valley.
Furthermore, with the downfall of Golden Sword Sect, Wei Kingdom’s overall strength has visibly diminished significantly.
Among the factions involved in the conflict, apart from the Lin Family, all have lost several cultivators of Golden Core Stage combat power, resulting in varying degrees of weakening.
After barely surviving a crisis, the factions in Wei Kingdom are now recovering their Yuan Qi and recuperating, leading to this period of fragile stability.
Beyond these tangible causes, external factors also play a crucial role.
It’s worth noting that various powers within the nations surrounding Wei Kingdom have kept their eyes on it like predators, with motives that are blatantly apparent to all.
To address these latent threats, the Lin Family cannot afford to fall while Zhenyang Sect and Myriad Medicine Valley have yet to restore their peak power, lest these external threats seize the opportunity.
Thus, Wei Kingdom’s Cultivation World has been able to maintain decades of relative peace.
However, it’s foreseeable that someday Wei Kingdom might face the same situation as Jinfeng Nation.
When that time comes, the Lin Family’s predicament won’t differ much from the Liang Family’s.
Therefore, in the Cultivation World, there’s ultimately no distinction between right and wrong—everything boils down to survival.
At present, the Liang Family’s strategies and the responses of Yuanchen Sect’s factions are all within Lin Tianming’s expectations.
What Liang Shaoguang explained merely served to confirm Lin Tianming’s speculations.
