Immortality Through Array Formations Chapter 2224 Chapter 1034: Three Mountains Legacy_3

"Furthermore, the prodigies from other sects aren't lagging much either."

Chongxu Sect Leader let out a sigh, saying frankly, "To be honest, Mo Hua is quite gifted, but even exceptional talents reach their boundaries."

"For him to truly guide Taixu Gate in facing the world, battling against the Four Sects and Eight Gates plus the Twelve Streams, even if Mo Hua shows bravery, we still need that solid base..."

"With the current power of Taixu Gate's disciples, how could they possibly rival them?"

"It's an absolute impasse."

"How should we bring this up to Mo Hua?"

"The three Sect Leaders like us can't just shamelessly dump such a massive load onto his young shoulders, right?"

The trio sank into quiet reflection.

Taixu Sect Master, who had remained silent throughout, cast a faint look and breathed a gentle sigh:

"Even so, we can't simply await destruction passively."

"Since the Sword Discussion began, we've all seen Mo Hua's capabilities firsthand. In terms of cultivation level and combat skills, he's not the foremost."

"Yet when it comes to array formations, strategies, and cleverness, this kid truly excels."

"On top of that, as Taixu Gate's beloved 'Junior Brother,'

he's admired by all, holds great respect, and the disciples place their faith in him."

"Hence, for the Shura Sword Discussion, our main hope rests on Mo Hua."

"Being the Junior Brother, bearing this duty is unavoidable."

"He must sense it deep down; so we Sect Leaders don't need to elaborate. However, in terms of support, we can't hold back."

"I suggest..." Taixu Sect Master's eyes grew keen, his voice firm as he declared:

"In readiness for the fight, grant Mo Hua access to the three lineage heritages of Taixu, Tai'a, and Chongxu!"

"Allow him to pick anything useful from each heritage and prepare accordingly."

"All in service of the Sword Discussion Conference!"

"Unite the might of one sect's three lineages to strategize this ultimate Earth Grade Shura confrontation!"

Taixu Sect Master expressed his thoughts with bold openness.

Tai'a Sect Leader and Chongxu Sect Leader showed somewhat nuanced expressions.

Having served as Sect Leaders for numerous years, how could they fail to grasp these subtleties?

"Doesn't this seem too sudden?" Chongxu Sect Leader wavered.

Taixu Sect Master exhaled slowly, "We're fully aware of the Sword Discussion's vital importance ahead."

"If we falter in resolve and skip this choice now, regret will strike too late should the Shura battle end in defeat."

"At that point, if Taixu Gate endures a crushing loss, revealing the heritage would prove pointless."

"What if defeat comes?" Chongxu Sect Leader creased his brow.

Taixu Sect Master replied straightforwardly, "Should we lose, then loss it is; what more can one do?"

"You..."

Taixu Sect Master declared with gravity:

"What immense rewards link to the Sword Discussion Conference? In the whole Qian Learning State Boundary, which major sect isn't grasping for every tiny opportunity?"

"Nothing in this world guarantees victory."

"Success arises from striving. With even a faint prospect, others seize it—they might triumph or stumble."

"But without striving, starting with doubt and fretting over outcomes, defeat becomes certain."

Chongxu Sect Leader stood briefly dazed, then gave a nod, somewhat concurring, though his face held a peculiar tint as he questioned Taixu Sect Master:

"This... doesn't resemble your usual words?"

Everyone knew Taixu Sect Master as a thinker, focused on inner cultivation, aloof from mortal concerns, unlikely to mention 'seizing chances' or 'striving to evade sure defeat!' Taixu Sect Master heaved a profound sigh, "Times compel me; no alternative exists."

Were he solitary, he could confront existence with indifference.

Should the sect enjoy tranquility, it might stay apart from worldly matters.

Yet the present differs; the sect's entire welfare hangs in balance, shaping the fate and tomorrow of countless cultivators.

In such a moment, clinging to worldly detachment would mark him as self-centered and unwise.

Regardless of weariness or discomfort, he had to endure till the close.

For Taixu Gate to advance, even a single higher step would bring gain.

Chongxu Sect Leader and Tai'a Sect Leader came to respect Taixu Sect Master even more.

In hardship, refine the self; in prosperity, aid the community.

Stay lofty as required, and engage the world when called, contending for honor and gain.

Tai'a Sect Leader pondered shortly, then affirmed first:

"To offer and receive; to provide, then gain."

"I'll return to consult Ancestor, and if Ancestor voices no dissent, I'll unlock Tai'a's heritage for Mo Hua. Let him select and check for any value in Shura battle readiness."

"With urgency burning at our heels, if not now, then when to battle?"

Chongxu Sect Leader nodded too, "I'll confer with Ancestor as well..."

As Chongxu Sect Leader, his true authority remained constrained, with key choices, particularly on sect heritage, resting with Ancestor.

Taixu Sect Master offered a thankful bow:

"My gratitude to you both for seeing the broader picture."

Upon parting from Taixu Sect Master and descending Taixu Mountain, Tai'a Sect Leader and Chongxu Sect Leader journeyed side by side in a carriage.

"Are we really opening the heritage?"

Chongxu Sect Leader lingered in doubt.

Tai'a Sect Leader shot him a resolute look:

"Yes! Not just standard heritages— in my view,

your Chongxu Gate's essential sword techniques ought to go to Mo Hua too."

Chongxu Sect Leader knitted his brows, "He's not into swords, no Sword Cultivator at all, so why hand him sword techniques?"

Tai'a Sect Leader replied, "Whether he pursues swords or applies them, offer it to him anyway. If you don't offer, how will you know he can't make use of it?"

Chongxu Sect Leader contemplated briefly, then came to understand, sighing:

"Born from Taixu, mastering Tai'a's Sword Array, then acquiring my Chongxu's Sword Qi... this boy could genuinely emerge as the 'Crown Prince' across three premier lineage heritages."

"Is this... Ancestor Xun's notion?"

"Would your Taia Mountain's ancestor consent?"

Tai'a Sect Leader shook his head, "I haven't fathomed Ancestor's mind; my focus is solely the Sword Discussion."

"Others' opinions don't matter to me; I aim only to safeguard the sect's standing."

"If this boy can indeed aid Taixu Gate in preserving its Sword Discussion position, he'll surely stand as the Crown Prince of Taixu's three lineages!"

Tai'a Sect Leader voiced his thoughts directly.

Chongxu Sect Leader hesitated, then gradually sighed, nodded, and murmured: "If Crown Prince he becomes, so be it—other sects yearn for such a Crown Prince yet can't attain it!"
