Chapter 511: Obeying Heaven, Defying Heaven


    The subsequent actions of Daoist Master Scarlet me did not surprise Meng Zhang. Shortly after leaving Taiyi Sect, he boldly visited the Qi Family in the Northern Desert. Upon arriving at the Qi Family, Daoist Master Scarlet me received a warm reception from Daoist Master Qi Nanfei. The details of their conversation remain unknown to the scouts of Taiyi Sect.


    Meng Zhang attempted to use the Grand Evolving Fortune Calction, but could only see a blurry scene. He had already anticipated this situation to some extent.


    After leaving the Qi Family in the Northern Desert, Daoist Master Scarlet me did not visit Taiyi Sect again. Instead, he returned directly to the residence of Fire Cloud Sect in the Endless Sea of Sand.


    Upon his return, Daoist Master Scarlet me did not immediatelyunch an attack on the Yellow Sand Ridge, the main gate of the Flying Swan Sect. Instead, he maintained the current situation.


    The improvement in the Grand Evolving Fortune Calction gave Meng Zhang more confidence to deal with various situations. Although he was unable to sessfully calcte the purpose of Daoist Master Scarlet me, as a master of fortune-telling, his ability to have sudden insights was strengthened. As long as it was not a direct intervention by a Primordial Spirit True Monarch or the interference of another diviner, he would remain vignt before the crisis arrived.


    On the surface, both Taiyi Sect and the entire Hanhai Alliance appeared normal, but preparations for war were secretly underway.


    Taiyi Sect upied arge territory in the Demon Wind Gobi, and even though it was only in the initial stages of development, it still generated considerable ie. Especially after the death of Qin Hongying, Taiyi Sect was relieved of a huge burden.


    When Qin Hongying voluntarily invited Meng Zhang to go to the Yachao, she promised him many benefits. Now that Qin Hongying was dead, Meng Zhang naturally had to fulfill her promises.


    Qin Hongying left behind many belongings in her residence at Taiyi Sect, which were promptly confiscated without hesitation by Taiyi Sect.Taiyi Sect was originally supposed to provide various resources to the Qin Family in installments, but now they no longer needed to do so. With the loss of Qin Hongying, the only Gold Core Daoist Master of the Qin Family, they would soon face various troubles and experience a rapid decline. It would only be when the family faced a life-or-death crisis that Meng Zhang and Daoist Master Luo Ye would intervene.


    The abundant resources saved by Taiyi Sect were continuously sent to Great Wind City, where they were sold in exchange for arge quantity of war supplies. In fact, even before this, Fire Cloud Sect and Flying Swan Sect had purchased various war supplies from Great Wind City multiple times.


    In the past few years, the various Shang Families in Great Wind City had made a fortune by selling various war supplies. Due to the prolonged war, Great Wind City, being the closest trading hub to the Endless Sea of Sand, saw the prices of various war supplies more than double.


    The major powers in Great Wind City were most willing to see the continued chaos in the Endless Sea of Sand, preferably without end. Fire Cloud Sect, Flying Swan Sect, and Taiyi Sect were well aware of this situation but were helpless.


    Speaking of Taiyi Sect, although important departments within the sect were already quite well-established, such as the production of pills, talismans, and magic tools, they still relied on external sources for various rare materials.However, once the war starts, the consumption of various war supplies will be astronomical, and the sect''s production capacity alone will not be able to meet the demand. They must procure arge quantity from the outside.


    What Taiyi Sect needs to do now is to desperately mine various resources in exchange for arge stockpile of war supplies.


    Since Fire Cloud Sect has not yet made a move against Flying Swan Sect, Meng Zhang has enough time to leisurely read various books. He has quite a few jade slips obtained from Myriad Layers Peakst time, and he takes this opportunity to carefully study them.


    Especially the "Fusang Golden Crow Canon" recorded in the Inheritance Pearl, which is a fundamental scripture that directly points to the Primordial Spirit Grand Dao. Although he cannot abandon his main cultivation method and switch to practicing it, he still benefits greatly from reading andprehending it, using it as an important reference.


    While reading various books, he also came across a big surprise. It was an inconspicuous jade slip that mainly recorded the travelogue of a Primordial Spirit senior from the Layered Mystery Sect.


    This Primordial Spirit senior loved to travel and had visited many ces in the Middle-Earth Continent. His knowledge was extensive, and he had encountered many interesting things.


    In one of his ounts, there were many introductions about the mysterious profession of diviners.


    Meng Zhang embarked on the path of a diviner through the book "Grand Evolving Fortune" and had never interacted with other diviners before. Although he had previouslye into contact with a diviner named Gu Yue Huaidie, he had never dared to reveal his own identity.


    Although he was already a rare master of fortune-telling among diviners, Meng Zhang still knew very little about the profession. Reading this ount was an important lesson for him.


    Among diviners, there are twopletely opposite paths: the Heaven Obeying Road and the Heaven-Defying Road.


    Diviners use various fortune-telling techniques to calcte the changes in fortune and explore the mysteries of the heavens.


    Calcting fortunees at a cost, and peering into the heavens naturally invites bacsh from the heavens. Diviners often have shorter lifespans and are more prone to cmities than other cultivators.


    Some diviners, in order to resolve the bacsh from the heavens, adhere to the principle of obeying heaven in their actions. They act in ordance with the will of the heavens and even make up for the shorings that the heavens overlook. Their ultimate goal is to be the spokesperson of the heavens and uphold the will of the heavens.


    Representatives of this type of diviner are the diviners from the Viewing Heaven Pavilion, a holynd for cultivation in the Cultivation World. The fundamental principle of the Viewing Heaven Pavilion is to observe the way of heaven and act in ordance with it.


    On the other hand, there are diviners who specifically seek out loopholes in the heavens and evade the bacsh from the heavens. These diviners walk the path of defying heaven, which naturally invites the disdain of the heavens. Their ultimate goal is topletely break free from the constraints of the heavens and seek true freedom.


    Although the ultimate goals and methods of the two types of diviners arepletely opposite, they are not ipatible. They often transform between the two.


    Diviners who obey heaven may sometimes have to go against the will of defying heaven. Diviners on the Heaven-Defying Road may also yield to the authority of the heavens.


    The truly terrifying individuals among diviners belong to a special category. They consider themselves as envoys of the heavens and are fanatically devoted to the heavens. They believe that other diviners, who have not received the recognition of the heavens, are disrespecting the heavens by casually peering into the mysteries of the heavens. This disrespect can bring terrifying cmities that affect all beings in the world.


    Therefore, they hunt down other diviners relentlessly. They almost always try topletely kill anyone theye across.


    These diviners are considered madmen by other diviners and are themon enemies of the divinermunity. They are almost universally hated and feared.
