I Have A Martial Arts Panel-Chapter 279 - The Source Sect’s Crisis

A month later.

State Fengling

Inside a suburban sect.

In a dark room, there were only candlelights flickering

There were two men in the room, and both of them had serious expressions on their faces.

“Sect Master, are we really going to the canton sect conference?”

One of the men took the initiative to ask.

If Xu Ning was here, he would recognize that this man was Teng Yunkong from the Source Sect in State Wansheng.

Xu Ning, Teng Yunkong, and Gu Man had once traveled together on the Endless Sea.

“Yes.”

The man called Sect Master by Teng Yunkong spat out a word with difficulty.

The man’s hair was black and white, and his eyes were full of vicissitudes.

He was the Sect Master of State Wansheng’s Source Sect, Xin Andao, a dao realm second stage astral qi realm master.

“But I feel that the canton sect conference this time will be very disadvantageous tos…”

Teng Yunkong looked troubled.

“Indeed.”

Xin Andao said, “It’s just that we have no choice. If we don’t go this time, we will definitely be talked about by others, saying that we are not harmonious with the sects in the canton. If this spreads, they will definitely use this as an excuse to target us. Moreover, our Source Sect is an unofficial sect. If we are attacked by a group, we will face a crisis of destruction.” 𝗳𝒓𝙚e𝓌e𝚋𝙣𝚘𝐯𝙚𝙡.𝑐૦ｍ

“Crisis of destruction…”

After hearing this, Teng Yunkong felt a chill on his back.

“These people are too greedy!”

Teng Yunkong suddenly spat out angrily.

Several years ago, the disciples of the Source Sect accidentally discovered a mine near the sect.

Below the mine, it was filled with green-patterned winter iron ore.

The green-patterned winter iron was an extremely valuable material that could be used to forge a dao weapon.

In the martial arts resource market, the demand for green-patterned winter iron was quite high.

After discovering the green-patterned winter iron ore mine, the Sect Master and elders of the Source Sect were overjoyed.

They knew very well that for a sect like theirs with no foundation, if they wanted to quickly grow, they had to either have a backer, a top genius in the sect, or grasp some high-value resources.

And this opportunity was presented right in front of them.

However, after their joy subsided, the Sect Master and elders of the Source Sect realized a serious problem.

Although they had discovered a green-patterned winter iron ore mine near the sect, once this news spread, other nearby sects would definitely target them.

The Source Sect was not an official sect with a sect token. If other sects wanted to plunder them, it would not be difficult. Therefore, the Source Sect had been extremely cautious and low-key when mining the green-patterned winter iron ores.

But even so, the secret of the green-patterned winter iron ore mine was exposed in less than three months.

Instantly, the Source Sect became a fat piece of meat. Many sects in the canton, whether they had a sect token or not, were eyeing it covetously.

During this critical period, Xin Andao found a way to survive the crisis.

When Xin Andao first came to State Wansheng, he got to know a disciple of an official sect.

Afterwards, the disciple grew up to be an elder of the sect.

After Xin Andao got the man’s help and gave away some of the mining rights of the green-patterned winter iron ore mine, he temporarily protected the Source Sect’s safety.

But even so, the Source Sect still had to bear the pressure from all parties.

However, compared to the sect’s previous predicament, this result was already quite

good.

After Xin Andao finished making all the arrangements, he thought that he could continue to mine the green-patterned winter iron ore.

However, more than a year ago, the official sect elder who Xin Andao had gotten help from had died in an accident, causing the Source Sect to lose its protection again.

The various sects in the county who had been restraining their greed suddenly released their evil intentions towards the Source Sect.

Especially recently, Xin Andao noticed that the major sects in the canton had secretly joined forces and planned to attack the Source Sect, in order to snatch the green-patterned winter iron ore mine and divide it.

And in the coming canton sect conference, there were sects that planned to use this opportunity to pressure the Source Sect.

This was why when Xin Andao and Teng Yunkong communicated, the two both felt tremendous pressure.

“Sect Master, if they really exert pressure on us during the sect conference, what should we do?”

Teng Yunkong was worried.

“If it really comes to that….”

Xin Ando paused for a moment. “Then we can only cut off our arms to survive.”

“Give up the green-patterned winter iron ore mine?” 𝗳𝐫𝘦e𝘸𝗲𝚋𝓃𝚘v𝘦𝘭.𝑐𝒐m

Teng Yunkong’s expression was painful.

He knew very well that this was the only opportunity for the Source Sect to rise.

If they could mine this green-patterned winter iron ore mine for a few decades, they would have the opportunity to improve the quality of the entire sect.

But if they gave up the green-patterned winter iron ore mine, they could not be sure when the next opportunity for the sect to soar would come, or even whether this opportunity would appear ever again.

“There is no better way…”

Xin Andao was a little helpless.

“Go back.”

Xin An said, “Organize the disciples that are participating in the sect conference. We will prepare normally for this sect conference.”

“Understood.”

Teng Yunkong seemed a little lonely as he walked out of the room with a depressed mood.

“Source Sect…”

Xin Andao was exhausted.

A few days went by.

State Fengling, Zuiyue Canton, Yuxiang County.

This was the center of Zuiyue Canton.

“State Wansheng is State Wansheng. Even on the road, void realm martial artists are everywhere, and dao realm masters are also occasionally seen.”

He Mingye spoke.

At this moment, Xu Ning, He Mingye, and Si Ying had all arrived at the Source Sect.

They passed through Yuxiang County and arrived at the outskirts, where the Source Sect was stationed.

“Yeah…”

Si Ying also sighed at the prosperity of State Wansheng. “Moreover, the most surprising thing is that martial arts masters and ordinary people can coexist together. In the city, because of the existence of the Imperial Court’s laws, everyone’s status is equal, and they are not afraid of being threatened by the difference in martial arts strength.”

Xu Ning walked between the two without interrupting.

When Xu Ning first came to State Wansheng, his behavior was the same as the two.

“Huh?”

As he walked along the street, Xu Ning noticed that there were martial artists in uniform rushing towards the east of Yuxiang County.

These people were obviously from a sect. Xu Ning had discovered that more than one group was rushing to the east. “Yuxiang County seems to be holding a sect conference.” Xu Ning said. “A sect conference?”

After Xu Ning finished speaking, He Mingye and Si Ying’s eyes lit up.

“I wonder if we can take a look?”

He Mingye and Si Ying had just arrived in State Wansheng, so they were extremely curious about the sects in State Wansheng.

Currently, except for the Swallow Heron Sect behind Xu Ning, they had never seen other sects.

“Let’s find a place to rest first.”

Xu Ning said, “Then, we’ll find someone to ask about what kind of sect activity it is.”

“Okay.”

He Mingye and Si Ying quickly agreed.

They all wanted to take this opportunity to experience the local culture of State Wansheng.

Xu Ning led the two into a luxurious restaurant.

They ordered dishes cooked with precious ingredients. With He Mingye and Si Ying’s current cultivation, they could solidify their foundation after eating them.

After serving the dishes, Xu Ning stopped the waiter.

He threw two Pure Source Pills to the waiter, whose eyes lit up. “Is there a sect conference in Yuxiang County?” Xu Ning asked directly.

The waiter was very enthusiastic. “Yes, guest. Today at Yuxiang County, there will be a sect conference for all sects in Zuiyue Canton. Most of the big and small sects will participate.”

“Then do they let outsiders in?”

Xu Ning asked again. “Sure…”

The waiter said, “It’s just that for outsiders to watch, each person must pay a hundred Pure Source Pills.”

“A hundred Pure Source Pills…”

Xu Ning nodded.

A hundred Pure Source Pills was not a lot. Even He Mingye and Si Ying could easily take it out.

“There is a sect near Yuxiang County called the Source Sect. The Source Sect should also participate in this sect conference, right?”

He Mingye asked the waiter.

“Of course.”

The waiter responded.

Afterwards, he lowered his voice. “Apparently, part of the reason for this conference is to pressure the Source Sect.”

“Oh?”

When the waiter was done, Xu Ning and the other two frowned.

The meaning of this waiter’s words was obvious—the Source Sect was in a difficult situation.

“Why are they pressuring them?”

Si Ying asked.

“For resources…”

Perhaps because he came into contact with a lot of news every day, the waiter knew a lot about the Source Sect.

He then explained the situation of the Source Sect to the three of them.

“I see…” The three of them suddenly realized after the waiter finished speaking.

“You can leave first.”

Xu Ning rewarded the waiter with another two Pure Source Pills.

The waiter couldn’t help but smile.

Four Pure Source Pills was half a year of his harvest.

“Thank you, thank you!”

The waiter left happily.

“It seems that Sect Master Feng Xiu is right.”

He Mingye said, “The Source Sect in State Wansheng is really in trouble.”

“Junior Brother Xu, can we help them?”

Si Ying looked at Xu Ning.

Although they had joined the Swallow Heron Sect and were below Xu Ning, they still called each other with the same terms as before.

“Let’s wait and see.”

Xu Ning did not immediately give an affirmative answer.

However, Xu Ning felt that with his strength, he should be able to resolve this matter.

Zuiyue Canton was not a strong canton. The top masters in the canton might only be in the fifth stage of the dao realm. With his combat power that was comparable to the peak of the dao realm sixth stage, no one was his opponent.

Logically speaking, Xu Ning must help the Source Sect.

But now that they were in State Fengling, they had no power to rely on.

But now that they were in State Fengling, they had no power to rely on.

Even if he wanted to help the Source Sect, Xu Ning could only rely on his own strength.

“Let’s eat first.”

Xu Ning said, “After dinner, let’s go to the venue of the sect conference.”

“Okay.”

He Mingye and Si Ying nodded.

After enjoying the food, the three left the restaurant and rushed towards the east of Yuxiang County.
