Chapter 262 - 262: 254: Demon Sect Alliance

“Of course, we will not betray the sect either.”

“If it comes to the moment when everything is about to collapse, our actions are blameless.”

“But for now, we must continue to guard this Heaven Power Immortal City.”

“As long as we are still in the Heaven Power Immortal City, who can say we don’t consider the faction’s interest?”

Having shared his thoughts on initiates who joined halfway and those with a formal inheritance, He Song looked at the other two, wanting to see their reactions.

He had mentally prepared for the difference in treatment between the two categories of cultivators.

It was not a novelty.

Who could truly trust someone who wasn’t raised from a young age by themselves?

Even if one broke through Foundation Establishment within the influence of the faction, confirming that the person had always been cultivating under the faction’s power, so what?

It is impossible to entrust important tasks to someone who is not a direct descendant cultivated since childhood.

If He Song were in charge, he would definitely do the same.

Meanwhile, the three of them are now safe in the Heaven Power Immortal City.

Of course, there is no need to consider desperate battle situations.

Although they feel that it isn’t worth risking their lives for the annual salary of three thousand spirit stones,

since they don’t have to think about desperate situations, the three of them can continue to muddle along in the Heaven Power Immortal City.

As for betraying the sect, it is also impossible.

Now that the Heaven Power Immortal City is very safe, they can just sit and guard it.

It doesn’t matter how they think, as long as they don’t act on it.

A gentleman judges actions, not intentions. If even thinking is not allowed, there probably won’t be any good people left in the world.

He Song also had some guesses about Meng Guan and Wei Fan’s thoughts.

These two must have been somewhat disturbed after being transferred to Heaven Power Immortal City.

Otherwise, they couldn’t have shaken their previous favorable impression of the Thick Earth Sect.

There is a considerable difference between sect elites and Loose Cultivation Base Building within the Thick Earth Sect.

Whether it’s the trust of the high-ranking sect members or battle capabilities and experience.

As for what Wei Fan mentioned earlier,

that only sect elites could fight to the death during times of crisis for the sect, He Song finds this very normal.

Loose Cultivation Base Building and the Thick Earth Sect are in a mutually beneficial relationship.

The Thick Earth Sect provides Foundation Establishment techniques, an annual salary, ensuring the Master’s cultivation and battle prowess.

In return, Loose Cultivation Base Building members join the Thick Earth Sect and contribute to the sect, including guarding Immortal Pavilions and Immortal Cities, and other tasks.

Neither party owes the other.

If the Thick Earth Sect does not provide Foundation Establishment techniques and annual salaries,

Would a Loose Cultivation Base Building starve to death? Other factions would covet having a Foundation Establishment Master in their ranks.

Of course, if a Loose Cultivation Base Building decides not to join the Thick Earth Sect, it would not be a huge loss.

It would just mean one less Foundation Establishment cultivator in the sect.

But because it’s a mutually beneficial relationship,

expecting a Foundation Establishment Master to risk their life for an annual salary of three thousand spirit stones is hardly feasible.

There are other places to go.

As a Foundation Establishment Master, one would receive respect wherever they go, there’s no need to hang oneself on a single tree.

And this is the mindset of the majority of Loose Cultivation Base Building Masters.

In the time of war, Loose Cultivation Base Building is definitely unreliable.

Surely, the sect’s higher-ups know this as well.

It’s fine when the winds are favorable — having more people can at least create a show of strength.

But if the wind is against them…

They would undoubtedly run the fastest and may even cause a collapse in morale on the battlefield.

That would be quite a sight.

Those who truly go to battle,

Most of them are sect elites and some Loose Cultivation Base Building who have just joined the sect and do not fully recognize their own identity.

For example, Meng Guan and Wei Fan from before.

At that time, they had been transferred to Mountain Immortal City, where they fought many battles with the Foundation Establishment Masters of the Seven Star Sect.

At that time, they had just joined the sect and did not know the difference between sect elites and Loose Cultivation Base Building and had been sent to battle unsuspectingly.

Luckily, they both had good fortune and survived.

It wasn’t until after the war, when Meng Guan and Wei Fan advanced and were transferred to Heaven Power Immortal City and interacted with the real sect elites, that they finally realized something.

In the eyes of the sect’s higher-ups, they were just Loose Cultivation Base Building.

They were entirely different from the gen uine sect elites.

Perhaps it was because they came to Heaven Power Immortal City and experienced the difference fully combined with the accumulation of days and months that Meng Guan and Wei Fan’s perception of the Thick Earth Sect declined.

Until today,

Wei Fan has already started sharing his views on the Thick Earth Sect with He Song.

The favor was repaid,

Seeking shelter under a big tree, People are ultimately different, and so on…

In the past, Wei Fan probably wouldn’t have said these things.

From the looks of it, Wei Fan and Meng Guan must have gone through a lot over these years and figured out a lot of things.

“What you said makes sense, friends.

“Based on your calculation, if there really is a war, this place will receive a Golden Elixir Master.”

“With the Golden Elixir Master guarding us, our safety is naturally assured.” “In this case, there’s no need to think about going to battle and such.”

“There’s also no need to ponder whether it’s worth risking our lives for three thousand spirit stones.”

“In that case, let’s stay in Heaven Power Immortal City and watch the world’s changes.”

“Anyway, it’s highly unlikely that the sect will send us to the battlefield.”

“With the sect’s elites present, all we loose cultivators need to do is cheer from the back.”

After some contemplation, Meng Guan eventually responded to He Song’s remarks, indicating agreement.

Wei Fan, who was sitting aside, also came to his senses and nodded in agreement with He Song’s words.

According to He Song’s words.

From now on, the three of them only need to guard this place.

Since this place is the heartland of the Thick Earth Sect, even if a war does break out, it will most likely not spread here.

Even if it does reach here, once the battle begins, a Golden Elixir Master is likely to be stationed here.

What is there to fear with a Golden Elixir Master supporting us?

The three of them were only the Master Guardians of the Heaven Power Immortal City, and as long as they remained in the city, no one could criticize them.

As for the matter of betraying the sect, it was utter nonsense.

The three of them were loyal to the Thick Earth Sect, constantly guarding Heaven Power Immortal City — how could they have thoughts of betrayal?

Wei Fan’s words from before.

It was nothing more than venting out frustrations.

After all, anyone who had been sent to the battlefield without their knowledge and later found out that their treatment was drastically different from the elite sect members would undoubtedly harbor some resentment.

Expressing it now served as a way to release some of the pent-up emotions and prevent them from dwelling on it.

“Sigh, it seems that the difference between loose cultivators building the foundation and true sect elites is truly irreconcilable.” “No matter how hard we work, we can never truly integrate into them.”

“A loosel cultivator is, after all, just a loose cultivator.”

“Compared to true sect elites, we are still outsiders.”

Although Wei Fan had already agreed with He Song’s view, he still let out a long sigh, seemingly with a bit of reluctance on his face. Seeing this, He Song didn’t show any change on his face.

But some doubts arose in his heart.

He didn’t know what his two friends had been through in the past few years.

Why did they seem so unhappy when talking about this?

According to his thoughts, although there was a difference between loose cultivators and sect elites, it shouldn’t be that obvious.

If the disparity was too apparent, wouldn’t it push people away? How can one win over people’s hearts that way? With doubts in mind,

He Song finally chose to ask a question.

“Wei, do you know something unfair? Why do you have such bitterness towards the gap between loose cultivators and sect elites?”

Knowing Wei Fan,

If he had not learned of some unfairness and was also powerless to resist it, he would not have acted this way.

Given his fondness for the Thick Earth Sect, he wouldn’t have expressed such words before.

In the past, if the Thick Earth Sect had given an order, Wei Fan wouldn’t have hesitated to rush forward, at least among the first batch to do so.

Regarding the Thick Earth Sect,

Wei Fan used to be full of yearning.

After joining, he became even more excited.

Even when he was initially sent to Mountain Immortal City, Wei Fan showed no fear and his eyes were brimming with excitement.

But now,

Wei Fan’s attitude towards the Thick Earth Sect has become so resentful.

What exactly happened to cause such a significant change in Wei Fan’s attitude towards the Thick Earth Sect?

He even said that people are inevitably different from one another, And talked about taking a break under a big tree.

He even said that if it were him, he would have run away as well.

Although it was just venting, He Song could still sense the changes in Wei Fan’s thoughts from these words.

From being initially very proactive, To now just slacking off.

What had happened during this change?

He Song felt that he should investigate further.

“Unfairness?”

“It’s not really an unfairness.”

“Lao Meng and I learned of this matter by chance. I trust you not to tell anyone.”

Wei Fan explained as He Song suddenly sensed a powerful divine sense enveloping the area.

The divine sense belonged to Wei Fan.

With his divine sense covering the surroundings, it ensured that no one could overhear their conversation.

It seemed,

Wei Fan was about to reveal some secrets.

He Song nodded, indicating for him to continue.

“Do you know about the Golden Core Path?”

At Wei Fan’s words, He Song felt as if his heart was shaken. The Golden Core

Path?

After Foundation Establishment comes the Golden Core stage.

But what exactly is the Golden Core Path? He Song didn’t know, and had never received any such information before..
