Two Worlds: Demonic Cultivator with His Zombie Materials-Chapter 220 - 131: Territory! Daluo Alliance_3
Taking advantage of this window of opportunity, Zheng Yi decided to continue amassing power in secret.
The saying goes, "Amass abundant supplies to declare oneself king later."
This is not only the guiding principle of peasant uprisings in the Mortal World but is equally applicable in the Cultivation Realm.
It is no exaggeration to say that the region where the Soul Catching Sect is located is a lawless zone, a completely blank area with few powerful sects paying attention to it.
Therefore, this presented Zheng Yi with an opportunity.
Just in time to consolidate and integrate the three major forces under his control, gathering a stronger power to form the Daluo Alliance.
By exploiting the power vacuum, he could cultivate stronger forces under his command. With the resources and rate of progress Zheng Yi possessed, in less than ten years, he would become the true overlord of the surrounding area, qualifying to contend against other powerful Purple Mansion Sect and have the capability to dominate this region.
At that time, with a more powerful Daluo Alliance, Zheng Yi would also be better positioned to collect and provide more cultivation resources to support his future development.
Simultaneously, Zheng Yi's growth and the development of the Doomsday World would feedback into the Daluo Alliance, increasing its resistance to surrounding Demon Dao influences.
Everything is interconnected, and Zheng Yi understood clearly that without sufficient power support, fighting alone in either the Mortal World or the Cultivation Realm had no future.
...
Zheng Yi's orders quickly reached the three major forces.
The Qi Family, as a clan cultivated single-handedly by Zheng Yi, especially with the family leadership headed by Qi Lin, were almost all his staunch supporters and trusted aides, fully supported this alliance with both hands and feet.
On one hand, they were aware of Zheng Yi's methods and dared not harbor other intentions.
On the other hand, in the three-party alliance, the Qi Family was originally the weakest link. They had already gained a considerable advantage, essentially serving as an attachment, so what was there to be dissatisfied about?
Instead, under Qi Lin's command, they cooperated extremely actively, not daring to show any grievance.
As for the Soul Catching Sect, although there were some voices of dissent, since the higher-ups of the sect were already cleared by the Barbaric Beast Sect, the remaining were minor figures, unable to stir any significant trouble.
The current Soul Catching Sect was just a shell filled with fresh blood, and even with some minor flaws and a few troublesome individuals, Zheng Yi swiftly dealt with them using Yee Xunyou.
The only ones who reacted intensely were the Independent Cultivator Alliance of Black Cliff Mountain.
This time, the three Foundation Establishment Cultivators, Yellow Crane Daoist, Lady Yin Yu, and Spirit Illusion Sect Leader, came forward together, yet they couldn't completely suppress the situation.
When the announcement was made, it caused dissatisfaction among some cultivators.
Because this Black Cliff Mountain Independent Cultivator Alliance was initially established by Yi Qing Zi to collect information and resources, it was a loosely organized alliance.
Upon joining, there were hardly any strict rituals or rules, and after joining, except for some necessary alliance tasks, most of the time, no one managed these loose cultivators.
Yellow Crane Daoist, Spirit Illusion Sect Leader, and Lady Yin Yu were nominally the three leaders, yet each acted independently, each managing one of the three main markets of Black Cliff Mountain, without intervening much in the core forces of the alliance.
It can be said that this Independent Cultivator Alliance was akin to fighting their own battles, forming different factions that occasionally erupted into conflicts, sometimes even resulting in bloody battles when they encountered each other in private.
On the surface, the factions within the Black Cliff Mountain Independent Cultivator Alliance, were mostly attached to various Foundation Establishment Cultivators, with the three strongest forces coming from Lady Yin Yu and others, who were also agents and proxies of Yi Qing Zi.
However, to counterbalance the three, there were some secondary factions in Black Cliff Mountain, led by several loose cultivators at Qi Cultivation Great Perfection and Half-Step Foundation Establishment, who played politics to gain benefits while gathering a group of loyal followers, becoming an important force within Black Cliff Mountain.
Zheng Yi's intention to completely control Black Cliff Mountain meant that these troublemakers were the biggest obstacles, roadblocks that had to be eliminated.
Moreover, some hidden concerns in Zheng Yi's mind compelled him to take such aggressive measures.
Initially, after eliminating the Spirit Illusion Sect Leader, Zheng Yi quickly dealt with Lady Yin Yu and Yellow Crane Daoist, leaving Yi Qing Zi as his only target.
The result not only did not draw out Yi Qing Zi but instead caused Zheng Yi to become embroiled in the conflicts between the two forces, Nine Yin Hall and Black Mountain Monarch.
Although he eventually turned danger into safety and gained great benefits, Zheng Yi did not want a repeat of such events.
Zheng Yi also hoped that Yi Qing Zi would emerge to oppose this time because of the establishment of the Daluo Alliance, providing an opportunity to resolve this issue with ease.
If the opponent did not emerge, it would verify Zheng Yi's suspicion.
This fellow might have sensed something unusual and no longer trusted people like Yellow Crane Daoist and others.
Regardless of the outcome, it would not hinder Zheng Yi from making his powers more visible, as he now had several cards in hand. As long as he steadily develops, time was on his side.
Yi Qing Zi was merely a rat in the gutter, the longer the time dragged on, the less significant he would become.
However, Zheng Yi roughly believed it to be the latter because, based on the soul probes from Yellow Crane Daoist, Lady Yin Yu, and Spirit Illusion Sect Leader, he found Yi Qing Zi to be an extremely cautious person with a very prudent personality.
Perhaps he had long sensed something and had vanished without a trace.
Whether or not Yi Qing Zi emerged, the establishment of the Daluo Alliance was imperative and unstoppable!
...
After one or two years of development, the Soul Catching Sect was full of new vitality, completely unrecognizable from the previous ruined state.
The mountain gate was reopened.
The saying goes, "More hands make for lighter work." The Soul Catching Sect had a strong foundation and a long heritage. Although it was utterly destroyed, the foundation remained, making reconstruction relatively easier.
Moreover, the Soul Catching Sect still contained a second-level Spirit Stone Vein. As long as a Foundation Establishment Cultivator oversaw it, redevelopment was inevitable.
