C3419 Faction
Senior Sister Ann rose to the 17th position of the Heaven And Earth Ranking and even obtained the authority to "establish a sect".
Being able to establish a sect outside of the Ninth Gate, one would also receive the support of the Ninth Gate. In the sect that he had established, the disciple would be the leader of Sect Master, and the person who takes in disciples would be the one to make the decisions for the disciple. The Ninth Gate would not interfere, but regardless of how the sect he had established would develop and develop, they were all disciples of the Ninth Gate.
On one hand, it would allow a disciple to begin cultivating their own followers and build up their own power. But on the other hand, it would also expand the scope of their power and influence for the Ninth Gate, because no matter what kind of sect they establish, all of it would be forces under the Ninth Gate, which would have its pros and cons.
But Ninth Gate, as a colossus of Thousand-Star Universe, wouldn't care if the disciple had their own faction. Thus, weighing the pros and cons, making the choice was very easy.
Ever since Senior Sister Ann had established her sect, the influence of the Chen Faction Sect had increased tremendously. Many disciples with lower realms could enter the the Sixth Palace and receive many benefits.
Every few months, Meng Fan would step into the the Sixth Palace once, mainly to chat with Chen Qin, to talk about the situation outside, and also listen to Chen Qin's instructions. For the rest of the time, Meng Fan would refine pills, bring disciples out for missions, or go into closed-door training for a long period of time.
Time passed in a very orderly manner, and was as calm as water. Time passed by very quickly.
One year. Two years. Ten years. A hundred years.
In the blink of an eye, Meng Fan had already lived in the fifth sect for a thousand years and became an elder disciple of the fifth sect. In the blink of an eye, Meng Fan had already lived in the fifth sect for a thousand years and became an elder disciple of the fifth sect.
Once he breaks through, he would become the third person to step into the the Sixth Palace. This way, Chen Faction would become a "large faction". Within the Ninth Gate, the formation of factions by elders and disciples was not a rare occurrence. Almost every single elder or disciple who had a certain reputation all belonged to a certain faction.
Therefore, Chen Qin and Meng Fan's relationship became more and more frequent. Time and time again, Chen Qin fought for Meng Fan's welfare, hoping that Meng Fan could break through to the next realm as soon as possible.
With Meng Fan's talent, in Chen Qin's eyes, it was inevitable that he would break through to the sixth level. He just hoped that it would be faster.
Finally, fourteen hundred years after he stepped into the sect, on a certain midsummer night, the disciples within the Ninth Gate were celebrating the Midsummer Festival. Countless fireflies filled the air and Meng Fan broke through to the sixth tribulation.
This incident caused quite a stir.
After Meng Fan broke through to the sixth level of tribulation, he remained in seclusion. External rumors say that his strength expanded too quickly and that he needed to stabilize his foundation. Chen Qin also came out to speak for Meng Fan and requested that no disciple or elder disturb Meng Fan.
A few days later, Meng Fan came out of seclusion and didn't chat with anyone. He first went to the the Sixth Palace to talk with Chen Qin.
By doing so, Chen Qin felt that he could do things. Chen Faction Faction suddenly appeared, and Three Celestial Kings of Six Tribulations's influence was too great. It was unknown how many factions, great elders, and great disciples would stare at them, but at this time, Meng Fan had chosen to keep a low profile, no matter how good it was, to avoid the limelight.
During this period of time, all kinds of documents flew up and down. Although Chen Qin had already tried his best to do a bit to reduce the complicated formalities, and hoped that the other big shots would not make things too difficult, in Ninth Gate, the fifth and sixth tribulations were indeed the threshold, and the examination was indeed strict.
It was a good thing that Meng Fan's previous experience was rich enough, and he couldn't find fault with it. Furthermore, his evaluation of the wind was extremely good, so even though it took quite a bit of effort, Meng Fan still managed to step into the the Sixth Palace two months later.
After settling down the Qingyun Peak, Chen Qin and Senior Sister Ann paid a visit, and told Meng Fan a lot of things that needed to be paid attention to within the the Sixth Palace. At this time, Chen Qin even told Meng Fan, with an equal attitude, about the many factions within the Ninth Gate.
Although Meng Fan already knew a lot, Chen Qin was more detailed.
In the Ninth Gate, Sect Master was high above everyone else, and this came from the consolidation of authority by Sect Master who had been in the Ninth Gate for generations. His words were the imperial edict, and those Supreme Elders in the highest realms only had the right to question him, but could not deny it.
Below Sect Master were the various factions of power.
They were all old monsters who had lived for tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of years. In terms of seniority, they were the same as Sect Master today, and there was even one who was a generation older than Sect Master today.
The status of these Supreme Elders in the Ninth Gate were also lower than that of the masses, so they would usually not participate in the matters of the factions, but now that Sect Master had already reigned for nearly two hundred million years, this period of time was a little too long, and Sect Master also expressed the intention of abdicating from the throne, after all, as the Celestial King of Ten Tribulations, Peak Life , the leader of the Ninth Gate, had no more requests. Under his leadership, the Ninth Gate continued its former glory, and he could do it.
Then he would need to elect a new Sect Master.
The Great Master did not have the qualifications to become Sect Master, this was a form of protection for Sect Master's authority, so the new Sect Master would definitely choose from the disciples, the disciples in Heaven And Earth Ranking s were the first choice, and although the current Great Elder's authority was unshakable, but all of them needed their disciples to become the next Sect Master, they all had their own selfish motives, even if their selfishness was small, it was definitely there.
Thus, although the three Nine Tribulations Supreme Elders did not participate in the matters of the factions, their attitudes were affecting the several large factions within the Ninth Gate.
There were two types of factions within the Ninth Gate. One was a large faction and the other was a small faction. The so-called big factions were very ambitious. Their goal was to become the next Sect Master.
Amongst them, the largest faction was naturally Eldest Senior Brother, Faang Haoyun's faction, led by Faang Haoyun, two eight tribulations, and three seven tribulations Great Elders. Below them were countless followers, as well as various great elders, elders, and disciples. Faang Haoyun, on the surface, seemed to be neither fighting nor snatching. His whole heart was focused on cultivation and his entire heart was focused on doing things for Ninth Gate. He had never once mentioned becoming Sect Master.
Secondly, was Lee Qingyun, the previous owner of the Qingyun Peak.2
He was already at the peak of the seventh level of cultivation. After stepping into the top ten of the Heaven And Earth Ranking, he had never tried to fight for the Heaven And Earth Ranking's rank again, so he had always maintained his position as seventh. However, many people knew in their hearts that with his strength, it wasn't difficult for him to advance just a few more steps, and he could even become second only to Faang Haoyun.
Similarly, there were a lot of people who followed Lee Qingyun.
After that, the second Gusu of the Heaven And Earth Ranking was vast, the third Yan Yunzi of the Heaven And Earth Ranking, and the fourth little stone spirit of the Heaven And Earth Ranking.
There were a lot of clan elders, clan elders and disciples behind these five disciples. Even many of the powerful disciples on the Heaven And Earth Ranking thought that they were weak and gave up on fighting over Sect Master's position to support one of them.
Faang Haoyun was Celestial King of Eight Tribulations, and the rest were all from Celestial King of Seven Turbulences. The next Sect Master would basically be chosen between them.
However, the forces between them were not even. Faang Haoyun's faction was almost equal to the sum of the other four sects.
So at present, Faang Haoyun becomes Sect Master is the "public hope".
