The Holy See of Light aggressively eliminated the power of the Dark Council, and the Dark Council was not to be outdone and also fought back. For a while, the conflict between the two major forces in Taixi became more and more acute. The power of the Holy See of Light was mostly in the open, while the Dark Council controlled the underground forces. The struggle between the two sides directly led to the situation in Taixi becoming somewhat unstable.
However, the Taixi top leaders could only turn a blind eye to this matter. After all, the two major forces were too powerful and they were not something that the Taixi top leaders could afford to provoke.
The crazy actions of both sides also caused considerable losses. There were reports of casualties every day, but they were all practitioners below the level of martial artists. Facing the fierce offensive of the other side, both the Dark Council and the Holy See of Light withdrew their forces and sent their strong men into the dark, but even so, the losses of both sides were still not small.
Even North had to personally take charge of directing the actions of the Dark Council.
"Brother Yang, no wonder you were able to break through the Martial Sect level so quickly. Now the outside world is in chaos, but you can still practice peacefully." North looked at Yang Qi who had just finished his practice and sighed.
During these few days, North was busy with the affairs of the Dark Council, but Yang Qi actually took advantage of these days to practice, which made North have to look at him differently.
“I am different from you. I don’t have any big forces behind me, and there is nothing I need to deal with.” Yang Qi smiled slightly. This might be the advantage of being an independent cultivator. The fights between big forces mostly have nothing to do with them, so it is easier for them to focus on their own martial arts.
Practitioners with great power, more or less, have some miscellaneous matters to deal with. Practitioners have limited energy, and if they waste time dealing with miscellaneous matters, they will naturally have less time for cultivation.
"Hearing what you said, I feel a little envious." North sighed.
North was extremely envious of Yang Qi's casual style of doing things, but the Dark Council trained him, his relatives and friends were all in the Dark Council, and the Dark Council was his home, and he could not give up his home.
“Every gain has its own trade-off. The Dark Council is huge and can provide a lot of resources for cultivation, but it will also consume a lot of energy.” Yang Qi said with a smile.
North’s ability to become a martial master is inseparable from the training of the Dark Council. Being in a big force is beneficial, but it naturally has its limitations.
"You're right. If you want to gain, you have to pay. There is no free lunch in this world." North chuckled. He was originally a martial arts master with a firm heart for martial arts. He just had some feelings just now.
After talking to Yang Qi at this time, he naturally felt relieved and knew clearly what he should do as the chairman of the Dark Council.
"President North, what actions has the Holy See of Light taken recently?" Yang Qi asked.
North smiled and said, "Although the Holy See of Light has been trying its best to eliminate our forces recently, it is only limited to the vicinity of the Kingdom of Light. We are also eliminating the Holy See of Light forces nearby. I guess everyone has suffered losses."
It can be said that neither side gained any advantage in the secret struggle during this period, but overall, the Holy See of Light suffered greater losses, after all, they had lost three nine-star warriors. However, the overall strength of the Holy See of Light was originally above that of the Dark Council, and even after such losses, the Holy See of Light was still extremely powerful.
"But I recently received news that all the powerful men of the Holy See of Light have gathered, and I'm afraid a war is about to happen." North said.
As the Dark Council's forces near the Kingdom of Light were eliminated, the Dark Council's understanding of the movements of the Church of Light was not as clear as before. Without powerful practitioners, it was impossible to sneak into the core of the Church of Light to investigate information. They could only rely on ordinary people to investigate. Many important places were inaccessible to ordinary people.
"Is the war coming?"
Hearing what North said, Yang Qi's expression became serious.
Once the war comes, he will have to face the Holy Emperor of Light, the number one person in the world of cultivation!
While feeling some worries in his heart, Yang Qi was also somewhat expectant deep down. Having stepped into the Martial Sect level, he was no longer using his full strength. The Holy Emperor of Light was the number one in the world of cultivation, and no one knew exactly how strong he was!
Being able to fight with such a strong man is a rare opportunity. After all, there are only four martial arts masters in the current Earth cultivation world, including Yang Qi himself. The Dark Council and the Chinese cultivation world are far apart and there is no conflict. Yang Qi and North can only exchange a few points at most. This is even more true for Long Yi. Yang Qi has a relatively close relationship with the Long family. It can be said that in the entire Earth cultivation world, the only one who can make Yang Qi go all out and fight to the death is the Holy Emperor of Light.
Time passed in the blink of an eye, and a few days passed. After absorbing the blood and flesh essence stored by the golden cicada, the two practitioners of the Southern Border Holy Land also improved their strength. The reason why the Southern Border Saint Lord sent two people here, and even brought the golden cicada, was to take advantage of this battle to absorb the blood and flesh essence of the dead practitioners. These things are rare resources.
"Dear Yang, the president asks you to come over immediately." On this day, Yang Qi was practicing when the voice of the corpse demon was heard outside the house.
Before Yang Qi started practicing, he had already instructed that if there was nothing important, his practice should not be disturbed. The corpse demon was very aware of this, but now it came when he was practicing, which obviously meant something big had happened.
Is the war coming
Yang Qi's eyes fixed, he ended the meeting with the cultivators, and came to the meeting hall of the Dark Castle. There were nearly thirty people in the hall, including the thirteen elders of the Dark Council, the vice president, the twelve masters sent by the Chinese cultivation world, and Yang Qi. You know, when Yang Qi and others first arrived, there were not so many people at the welcome banquet, but now the entire high-level of the Dark Council has arrived.
"President North, you are so anxious to call us together, but what big move is the Holy See of Light making?" Yang Qi looked at President North not far away.
"Just a few hours ago, our people lurking near the Kingdom of Light sent us news that a huge phantom of a statue suddenly rose in the Kingdom of Light." North nodded slightly and said in a deep voice, "The power of the Holy Grail has been restored!"
Hearing this, the faces of the Chinese practitioners changed slightly. Regarding the Holy Grail, not only the Dark Council knew about it, but the Chinese practitioners as well. After all, when the Holy See of Light marched eastward, the ancestors of these holy places had fought with the Holy Emperor of Light of that generation.
The war is coming!
Yang Qi's eyes narrowed. With the restoration of the power of the Holy Grail, the war that the Holy See of Light had been planning for a long time would begin at any time. This war involving the practitioners of the entire cultivation world was finally about to begin. (To be continued)
