Dual Cultivation: Ying Yang is way to Chaos-Chapter 330: Impossible To Hide
Lin Feng knew why she would say that and that was something he also understood very well. "I see...what do you think of me now master?"
He really wanted to know how she saw him. Did his change affect her opinion of him or not.
Xuan Xue smiled ruefully. "I don’t know. Your past self was more of a scoundrel. Your current self is far more restrained. If I have to really pick one then I want your real self and I have a feeling that you are still somewhat not there yet."
She had a little inkling as to why he was getting such a drastic change which was impossible to have in a short term.
Lin Feng wasn’t surprised hearing that. If he thought thoroughly then reaching some conclusion about his condition wasn’t impossible. Having so much knowledge, battle sense, mastery of almost all professions.
These things weren’t something which one could have without true experience with them. He had a feeling that not only his master but his aunts also had a true inkling about it.
He took a deep breath. "I am also waiting for it."
Xuan Xue looked at him and grabbed his hands. "Well you wanted to cultivate right? Let’s go."
Lin Feng smiled and shook his head. He had used that reason to just leave quietly. Nonetheless no matter how much he changed he still loved dual cultivating with her the most.
....
In the mountains of Northern Region which were closest to the central region.
There was a sprawling sect carved with blades among the mountains. Those who saw it always got awed with the strength and precision of the mighty figure who had created this heaven for sword cultivators.
An elder who had gone to observe the conflict arrived back and went to the main sword peak where everyone was waiting for him.
After he entered he bowed toward the main seat where the person sitting was not the sect master but the supreme elder who was on the verge of leaving this world.
The other elders and sect master were also present inside the hall.
"What happened? Explain everything clearly without omitting anything."
The supreme elder spoke and the elder bowed and explained everything.
When the others heard they were a little stunned.
"Is it really some kind of hidden cultivation technique? Is it even possible to hide your cultivation realm while you attack?" The sect master was quite intrigued.
While others began discussing among themselves about what kind of qi it was and who the cultivator actually was. There weren’t many Tribulation Ascendance cultivators in the whole world much less Northern Region so everyone was already known somehow.
The supreme elder on the other hand was thinking of something else. He had heard this from the previous sect master before he went on his journey.
The words he heard were simply from an insight sharing session.
..
"It’s impossible to hide your cultivation realm when you attack as qi isn’t something you can make appear weak or strong just because you want.
Most of the hidden cultivation techniques work on the principle of suppressing the qi emission from the body rather than suppressing the strength of the qi.
Even when someone restricts their strength they do it by how much qi they can use not by decreasing the strength of the qi they use."
..
So it was totally given that the person who faced the elder from Crimson Flame Palace was a Void Tribulation and this thought made him tremble inside.
A Void Tribulation took an attack of an Early Stage Tribulation Ascendance cultivator. If he mentioned it somewhere then everyone would label him as a blind fool.
In fact he wanted to do the same to this elder who mentioned about this but since it had happened publicly and soon news would spread everywhere so it was a truth no matter how much he denied it.
Oh well it seemed Frozen Heart Sect had gotten one more monster. They really surprised everyone every time people thought that they were weak.
"Listen you all."
Everyone immediately stopped talking and intently paid attention to him.
"We never planned to go against Frozen Heart Sect from the start. First of all our previous sect master had crossed some path with the founder of Frozen Heart Sect and he had mentioned only one thing.
That no matter what happened never go against Frozen Heart Sect. We all knew how he came to that conclusion.
So let’s now discuss how much we can help Frozen Heart Sect in the war."
All of them nodded. They knew that the previous sect master was able to divine fortune and he had seen the fortune of Frozen Heart Sect. He mentioned that if others were like flickering flames then Frozen Heart Sect was like a massive flame.
His intentions were clear. Nothing would happen to Frozen Heart Sect in coming centuries. In fact their rise was evident. This was proven quite true when everyone saw Xuan Xue’s might. Her strength was still an enigma to them till date.
...
At the edge of a sprawling lake which was covered with blue lilies existed one of the three strongest sects in Northern Region, Moonwater Sect.
The scene inside the main pavilion was restless yet peaceful just as their doctrine of being peaceful.
Most of the sect members of this sect were women. Their cultivation technique suited them but they weren’t totally a women sect like Frozen Heart Sect.
"What should we do? Although I would prefer if we aren’t dragged in this mess but that is just wishful thinking." The sect master was a mature woman with an innocent demeanor. But she wasn’t weak at all. She was in late stage of Tribulation Ascendance.
"Sect master if we sided with Frozen Heart Sect and lost then the price we would pay would be crippling. So we have to make the decision wisely or else it would be a disaster." One of the elders spoke and with his tone it was clear what he was hinting.
Most of them had an inclination that Frozen Heart Sect wouldn’t be able to stop the advance of the top behemoths.
There were various factors. First was that Frozen Heart Sect had only one Tribulation Ascendance Realm cultivator. Second they didn’t have many sect disciples.
Their strength was undisputed but this time numbers overwhelmed them completely.
"Does anyone have a thought about why Frozen Heart Sect hasn’t approached us or any powers in Northern Region for extensive help?" It was the supreme elder who was also the previous sect master of the sect who spoke.
Similarly to the supreme elder of Clear Blade Sect she was waiting for an opportunity to begin her journey on the path of Dao.
It was true till now Frozen Heart Sect hadn’t approached any of the existing powers even when they seemed to be on the peril of destruction.
"Maybe they already know that they won’t win and might just save their strength and protect only their sect?" The male elder stated.
The supreme elder shook her head. "I have a feeling that isn’t the case. We don’t have much interaction with the founder of Frozen Heart Sect but we do know that she never felt threatened by anything. Anyway it is your decision to make but my advice is follow what Clear Blade Sect does."
After saying that the supreme elder left quietly.
...
Inside Frozen Heart Sect Lin Feng and Xuan Xue were still in their passionate dual cultivation session when Li Xiang left.
"We all can see that something is happening with Feng’er." Xuan Lian sighed after Li Xiang left.
"True he has been becoming more and more lost in thoughts." Hua Ying chirped in.
"Xuan Xue definitely understands that so I have a feeling she will discuss that with him. Let’s talk to her about it later. As long as Feng’er is safe I can accept anything." Zi Mei quipped in.
"We all have had an inclination about it for a long time anyway. It seems as if his breakthroughs are the reason. Every breakthrough made him more calm and restrained." Bai Ning spoke while sighing.
"It’s quite funny, I always wanted him to be like this from the start but now it feels like a very abrupt change." Zi Mei said again and stood up. "I am going to check on the preparations in the sect."
They were officially in the war and no matter how confident they were precautions should be made.
"Alright, I am going to refine some pills..." Bai Ning stood up too.
One by one they all left for preparing some more resources while waiting to meet Xuan Xue to clear their doubts.

The next few days went as everyone had imagined. Yin Yang Harmony Sect and Crimson Flame Palace captured five more cities on the border area and officially created bases for their sects for further invasion.
Lots of disciples had begun gathering inside these cities and residents were forced to leave in small areas.
And finally the first official announcement of a faction from Northern Region joining these two sects happened.
