C2616 The Change in Spiritual Energy
Yun Xiao was indeed hiding something from Faang Yang. There were many things that Faang Yang wasn't clear about, but as the Sect Master of Hidden Sect, he knew a lot more than Faang Yang.
That was why they left Faang Yang behind and went to some of the famous mountains and rivers outside the country, and began to absorb the fortunes within.
Because of the Azure Dragon Jade Plate, Faang Yang had a bad time with them. Even Huang Aohan couldn't help feeling a knot in his heart.
They felt that if Faang Yang was willing to help, he would definitely be able to snatch the Azure Dragon Jade Plate back from Lair's hands.
Faang Yang was too lazy to explain himself. Only Yue Ying was still supporting Faang Yang unconditionally, and she did not leave like the other sect masters.
"Actually, we can't blame Grandmaster Huang and the others for all of this. The main reason is because of the relationship between the mages." Moon Shadow consoled Faang Yang.
Little did she know that Faang Yang didn't take it to heart at all. Right now, he had been focusing all his attention on breaking through to the Spirit Guiding Stage. Now that he was facing the Evil Spirit Hall, it was very difficult for him to gain the upper hand just by relying on his Heaven Rank Great Perfection cultivation base.
Especially since the Evil Spirit Hall had been hiding their strength quite well recently, no one knew how much strength they had gained.
Not to mention that there was also Six-desire Devil King above the Seven Emotional Devils, which made Faang Yang even more anxious to improve his strength.
However, in the face of Yue Ying's consolation, Faang Yang still replied with relief, "Don't worry, I'm not that weak. They have their own plans, and I have my own principles."
Faang Yang promised Mage Norvy that he would also take care of mages. Naturally, he would not break his own principles just because of an Azure Dragon Jade Plate.
When Yue Ying saw Faang Yang like this, she also heaved a sigh of relief in her heart. She was really worried that Faang Yang would walk further and further away from Hidden Sect because of this.
"Oh right, do you feel that the surrounding spiritual energy has become much denser recently?" At this moment, Yue Ying continued to search for a topic to talk about.
When Faang Yang heard this, he immediately replied, "That's right. I have the same feeling as well. It feels like this has happened since Mage Norvy's death."
Yue Ying said with a strange expression, "Could it be that you feel that all of this has something to do with Mage Norvy?"
Faang Yang's expression turned serious, and he said in a serious manner, "This is only my guess, but I think this should be the reason."
One should know that Mage Norvy had the cultivation base of a Spirit Guiding Stage, and the amount of spiritual energy in his body was astonishing. After his death, the spiritual energy in his body spread out, and it was enough to cause changes to the spiritual energy in Mortal Realm.
It was no wonder that all the disciples of Hidden Sect, including Faang Yang, had their cultivation base increased by a lot. Even the Hidden Sect Master that came later had the same feeling.
Although there was no evidence, Faang Yang had a vague feeling in his heart. It was because of this that the Sect Masters of Hidden Sect were so eager to seize the opportunity of becoming a mage.
"Could it be that after Mage Norvy's death, another Spirit Guiding Stage expert will appear in Mortal Realm and replace him?" Of course, Faang Yang could not say this out loud, but he had a faint guess in his heart.
After all, this was related to the Regulator. Faang Yang didn't dare to be careless, but he couldn't go and ask Yun Xiao himself. Otherwise, he might be thought to have ulterior motives.
It was true that Yun Xiao valued Faang Yang, but this did not mean that Faang Yang could do whatever he wanted. Talking about the benefits of the Regulator dying in front of Yun Xiao, Faang Yang was afraid that Yun Xiao would beat him to death.
Although he could not ask Yun Xiao directly, he could infer it from other aspects.
No wonder Norvy had asked Faang Yang to choose six Mage Successor before his death. It was likely that he had already made such preparations at that time. Unfortunately, Faang Yang didn't have this intention at that time.
At this time, Faang Yang couldn't help but recall the news of Yun Xiao's Regulator's death. He had actually asked the four sect masters to take over Faang Yang's command. Originally, Faang Yang was a little strange. Now that he thought about it, perhaps Yunxia had done it on purpose.
She had done this to prevent Faang Yang from breaking through to the Spirit Guiding Stage and replacing Norvy's Regulator after Norvy's death.
He had sent four Sect Masters of the Heaven Rank Great Perfection to share a lot of the scattered spiritual energy. Otherwise, Faang Yang's current cultivation base would be far beyond the Heaven Rank Great Perfection.
No wonder Faang Yang's strength had increased so quickly after Norvy's death. He never thought that there would be such a hidden reason behind it.
Faang Yang suddenly remembered that when he was talking to Yun Xiao, he told Faang Yang that he wouldn't be able to reach the Spirit Gathering Stage for the rest of his life. He was afraid that it was because of the shackles of the Regulator that he couldn't break through.
He naturally didn't want Faang Yang to take over the position of the Regulator since Faang Yang was so important to him.
"Could it be that the next human who breaks through to the Spirit Guiding Stage will become a Regulator?" Faang Yang thought in surprise.2
No wonder he suddenly told Faang Yang so much, even telling Faang Yang about the Spirit Gathering Stage and Essence Spirit Stage. It turned out that this was Yun Xiao's true goal.
After understanding this, Faang Yang couldn't help but feel touched by Yun Xiao. He didn't want to be tied to a mage's territory for the rest of his life.
Although the power of the Regulator was great, the responsibility was also great.
Although the cultivation of the Regulator was at the Spirit Guiding Stage, it was also restricted to this realm, unable to break through for the rest of its life.
Whether it was Norvy or Yun Xiao, it was the same.
If Faang Yang could understand this, the others might not be able to. The Sect Masters of the Hidden Sect were the same. Each of them was in secluded cultivation, and even the matter of dealing with the Evil Spirit Hall was thrown to the side.
In their hearts, there was nothing more important than breaking through.
Not everyone could resist the temptation of immortality, and the distance between them and immortality was not too far.
Immediately, Faang Yang told Yue Ying his speculation. After listening to what Faang Yang said, Yue Ying's expression turned exceptionally shocked, "I didn't expect this to be the case. No, I have to inform Sect Master Huang and the others as soon as possible."
Faang Yang waved his hand and said, "No need. Even if you tell them, they might not believe you. Perhaps they have already known about this in their hearts. They are just pretending to be ignorant."
"Besides, who said that one must stay in the territory of a mage after becoming a Regulator? They can also return to the Hidden Sect. Perhaps, because of the identity of the Regulator, their status in the Sect will increase tremendously."
After listening to Faang Yang's words, Yue Ying finally reacted. No wonder the few sect masters who came to support Faang Yang had started to occupy the territory. It turned out that they had such a purpose.
At the same time, she couldn't help but look at Faang Yang. Not many people could remain indifferent in the face of such temptation. Even Yue Ying couldn't help but feel a little moved in her heart.
She didn't know that Faang Yang's ambition was even more astonishing. It was far from something that a Regulator could get rid of.
"A mere Regulator is nothing. It's only a Spirit Guiding Stage. Essence Spirit Stage is my ultimate goal." A bright light flashed across Faang Yang's eyes as he thought in his heart.
Even if the Regulator wasn't killed by the Nether Essence Spirit, once it reached the Spirit Gathering Stage, it would be able to avoid the Five Despairs of Heaven and Earth, freeing itself from the shackles of life and death.
