TO ACHIEVE IMMORTALITY, I CULTIVATE USING QI LUCK

Chapter 1467: Chapter 572 Revealing Identity_2 Chapter 1467: Chapter 572 Revealing Identity_2 As for my Taiping Dao, we only need the Southern Domain to sustain the size of our Grand Immortal Sect.

Therefore, we just need to reach a consensus with Changqing Immortal Sect to maintain our current size beyond the Southern Domain, and that should be enough to achieve a military balance with Changqing Immortal Sect.

As long as they ensure their absolute advantage, they don’t necessarily have to annihilate Taiping Dao.

After all, even when Changqing Immortal Sect was at its most prosperous, it didn’t occupy the entire territory of Changqing Domain.

It left a dozen countries for other Immortal Sects to establish their Tao inheritance.

As long as we can affirm this consensus and give up the ambition of dominating, Taiping Dao and Changqing Immortal Sect can naturally maintain peace.

On the contrary, for Nine Provinces…”

Lu Yuan said all this at length and then looked at Zhen Xuan with an indifferent tone, “After Taiping Dao makes concessions to Changqing Immortal Sect, without us as their allies, can you with your little strength possibly be a match for Changqing Immortal Sect?

Or even more ruthlessly, if you harbor the thought of profiting from a fisherman’s fight, we may as well join forces with Changqing Immortal Sect to wipe out Nine Provinces first, completely removing the instability and threats within Changqing Domain.

In that way, with you gone, Changqing Domain would stabilize.

Once Changqing Domain is stable, Changqing Immortal Sect can be at ease.

And as Taiping Dao submits this declaration of allegiance, in both reason and emotion, they would no longer have a reason to target us.

Taiping Dao and Changqing Immortal Sect could then coexist peacefully and without incident.

You think that after the strength of Taiping Dao is exposed, it will become the origin of calamity.

But what you don’t realize is that as long as Taiping Dao steps back, this strength will not only cease to be a calamity, but become the foundation for negotiating terms with Changqing Immortal Sect.

As long as we do not desire the entire Changqing Domain and just help Changqing Immortal Sect eradicate you, not only will Taiping Dao not suffer any losses.

It is quite possible that after eliminating you, we could also smoothly take back Qingyu Country and unify the entire Southern Domain.

Changqing Domain is large enough to accommodate a great sect of Heavenly Immortals and a Grand Immortal Sect, but it cannot accommodate both Changqing Immortal Sect and Jiuzhou Immortal Gate.

If you do not join forces with me, Taiping Dao has at worst lost the opportunity to vie for supremacy, but Jiuzhou Immortal Gate will have to face the consequences of annihilation.

As for weighing what is more or less important, I would think you could make the correct choice.”

Having said all this, Lu Yuan picked up his tea and took a sip, not continuing further but quietly waiting for the other party to digest it.

Zhen Xuan, who had been listening, had already turned pale and his expression was ashen.

Because he found that everything was indeed as Lu Yuan had said.

Between Taiping Dao and Changqing Immortal Sect, there really weren’t that many conflicts.

Nine Provinces and Changqing Immortal Sect had deep-seated conflicts over the restoration of the Tao inheritance, the struggle between the remnants of the former dynasty, and the current ruling power, the core interests entangled, leaving no room for negotiation.

Moreover, with the enmity forged through ten thousand years of bloodshed, reconciliation was now out of the question.

However, Taiping Dao was not in such a situation.

For Changqing Immortal Sect, Taiping Dao was equivalent to a vassal nation bordering the Central Plains Dynasty that occupied a corner of the territory.

It was just that, this vassal nation was now unruly, colluding with a bunch of remnants from the former dynasty, trying to invade the Central Plains and overturn their own rule.

That’s why it had to be reprimanded.

But if this vassal state ceased its disturbances and chose to submit obediently and pay regular tribute,

Then, for the Central Plains, there would naturally be no need to launch a distant expedition to annihilate this vassal state.

After all, for a great sect of Heavenly Immortals, territory is not about having more, but rather having just the right amount.

The people of Changqing Immortal Sect who wanted to become Heavenly Immortals had to occupy only those areas that could just accommodate their Heavenly Immortal Taoist Fruit, avoiding too much entanglement with Heaven and Earth, lest they cannot disengage.

Excessive territory, for those who already aspire to become Heavenly Immortals, is only a burden, a load.

The more they occupy, the more difficult it is to overcome the Celestial Immortal Tribulation, the more entangled with Heaven and Earth they become, and the lower the chance of becoming a Great True Person.

Didn’t the former Changqing Immortal Venerate do just that, directly giving up almost half of the Changqing Domain, controlling only the territory of twenty-seven countries, and then achieved the Heavenly Immortal Taoist Fruit?

The Tao inheritance of Changqing Immortal Sect, inherited from Changqing Immortal Venerate, has such a successful path, and as long as they’re not foolish, they wouldn’t rashly change it, but simply copy the successful answer.

So the bottom line for Changqing Immortal Sect is the territory of twenty-seven countries in Changqing Domain.

As long as they can secure this, then they can accept handing over the remaining territory to outsiders.

And coincidentally,

Taiping Dao, including the three tributaries, controlled merely ten countries.

The territory of thirty-nine countries in Changqing Domain minus twenty-seven leaves twelve countries spare, so theoretically, Taiping Dao could still expand by a couple of countries.

These two countries’ worth of interest could entirely be ceded by Changqing Immortal Sect in exchange for Taiping Dao’s assistance in wiping out Jiuzhou Immortal Gate.

Therefore, Changqing Immortal Sect and Taiping Dao joining forces does have common interests, a core driving force.

Taiping Dao doesn’t necessarily have to ally with Jiuzhou Immortal Gate; teaming up with Changqing Immortal Sect would be just the same.

The difference between the two is that allying with Jiuzhou would yield greater benefits but also carry greater risks.

Teaming up with Changqing Immortal Sect, on the other hand, would be about sacrificing our own future, but it’s relatively safer and the benefits are smaller.

However, regardless of which it is, Taiping Dao would gain advantages.

Now if Nine Provinces, due to the dramatically increased strength of Taiping Dao, refuses the generosity of Taiping Dao’s proposed alliance, it would be the same as pushing Taiping Dao out themselves.
