Eternal Sacred King Chapter 2694: Sect Master's Scheme

2694 Sect Master’s Scheme

The Sect Master of the Academy smiled. “Initially, I didn’t have a good chance of getting my hands on the Grand Pure Jade Manual. However, the appearance of Desolate Martial of the Fiend Domain caused a huge commotion at the Nine Firmament Meet. Alongside the sudden awakening of the Builder Tree, an opportunity was opened up for me.”

Su Zimo recalled the situation at the Nine Firmament Meet and it was a complete mess.

Almost all the cultivators and Immortal King experts of the Nine Firmament Immortal Domain and Pure Land of Bliss focused their attention on the Martial Dao Prime Body and the Builder Tree. That was the reason why the Sect Master of the Academy had an opportunity to take advantage of them.

The Sect Master of the Academy’s scheme was indeed terrifying. Now, the Three Pure Ones Jade Manual had already fallen into his hands!

More importantly, the Sect Master of the Academy hid himself almost perfectly and was never exposed. As such, he was never targeted.

If anyone knew that the Three Pure Ones Jade Manual was in the hands of the Sect Master of the Academy, even Emperors would be tempted!

Right now, even King Yun You and the others merely knew that the Sect Master of the Academy had obtained the Jade Pure Jade Manual.

Every single move of the Sect Master of the Academy was extremely careful and could be said to be perfect.

Although the Sect Master of the Academy did not say it explicitly, Su Zimo guessed that the reason why the Sect Master of the Academy hid himself and used the ident.i.ty of Elder Eight to plot everything in secret was probably because he was wary of Die Yue.

The Sect Master of the Academy definitely knew that King Yun You’s clone was destroyed by Die Yue in Tianhuang Mainland.

He must be worried that he would attract Die Yue’s revenge, which was why he was so cautious.

But now that the Sect Master of the Academy had finally appeared, he was naturally certain that he was in control of the entire situation and had killed all variables!

The reason why the Sect Master of the Academy set up such a huge scheme was not only for the Three Pure Ones Jade Manual!

Su Zimo knew in his heart that he no longer had a chance in the current situation.

It was not only because the difference in strength between the two parties was huge. In front of the Sect Master of the Academy, he felt a sense of helplessness as well.

Everything about him was merely a part of the Sect Master of the Academy’s calculations.

Furthermore, his Essence Spirit was entangled by the Master Betrayal Curse.

Even if he was lucky enough to escape, the Sect Master of the Academy would be able to sense his location no matter where he fled!

As for the Master Betrayal Curse, he could not resolve it at all.

This was a dead end!

There might be other variables in between, but it was difficult to change the eventual outcome.

It was precisely because of this that the Sect Master of the Academy revealed his true appearance and was even willing to reveal all his schemes.

“Actually, the Immortal Sect Selection was planned many years ahead.”

The Sect Master of the Academy said, “I arranged for Yang Ruoxu to preside over the Immortal Sect Selection because I was waiting for you.”

Su Zimo said, “You know Senior Brother Yang’s character and know that he won’t submit easily against the might of authority.”

“Therefore, although a series of unforeseen events happened during the Immortal Sect Selection, it was all within your expectations.”

“That’s right.”

The Sect Master of the Academy nodded. “All of this was arranged to dispel your guard and make you think that joining the academy was just a coincidence.”

Su Zimo was silent and felt a chill in his heart.

Not only could the Sect Master of the Academy divine the heavenly secrets, his grasp of the human heart was extremely accurate as well!

In order to control all the variables of the Immortal Sect Selection, not only did he have to know Yang Ruoxu like the back of his hand, he had to understand all the Heaven Immortals who partook in the selection at that time such as Prince Yuan Zuo, Zither Immortal Meng Yao, Painting Immortal Mo Qing and everyone else!

The Sect Master of the Academy understood the reactions, bottom lines, strengths and choices each of them would make.

His mastery of the human heart had already reached a terrifying level!

Su Zimo thought of something else and frowned. “Since you wanted to dispel my guard, why did you summon me later on to expose the matter of the Green Lotus True Body?”

No matter how he looked at it, this matter seemed unnecessary and might even alert the enemy.

“Haha!”

When the Sect Master of the Academy mentioned that, he burst into laughter. “Haven’t you figured it out yet? At that time, my intention WAS to alert the enemy. I was reminding you to make preparations for your escape!”

“Hmm?”

Su Zimo was shocked.

The Sect Master of the Academy continued, “Of course, I didn’t intend to alarm you in the beginning when you joined the academy. However, you were too outstanding and obtained Rank 1 of the Earth and Heaven Ranking in succession. I couldn’t suppress the attention even if I wanted to.”

“Even if I sealed the news of you condensing the tenth step of the Dao Heart Stairs, it would still be noticed by those with sharp senses and they would naturally pay attention to you.”

“Thereafter, King Yun You, Immortal King Yan Yang and Immortal King Qing Yang discovered your Green Lotus bloodline one after another. Naturally, they came to demand a share of the loot. When King Jin came looking for me, I took advantage of the situation and did not hide this matter.”

“Since they wanted to join the game, I let them in. However, they’re far from capable enough to take advantage of me!”

Su Zimo was enlightened and finally understood the Sect Master of the Academy’s plan.

Right from the beginning, the Sect Master of the Academy had no intention of sharing his Green Lotus True Body with others.

However, because the Green Lotus True Body was exposed, the Sect Master of the Academy changed his plan and allowed King Yun You and the others to join the game before exposing Su Zimo’s Green Lotus True Body.

The Sect Master of the Academy had never stopped him from partic.i.p.ating in the Nine Firmament Meet or from meeting Immortal Queen Ling Long.

That was because all of this was the intention of the Sect Master of the Academy to begin with!

The Sect Master of the Academy wanted Su Zimo and Immortal Queen Ling Long to join forces and use the Jade Pure Jade Manual to create this decoy plan in order to escape the surveillance of King Yun You and the others!

With the guidance of the Master Betrayal Curse, the Sect Master of the Academy could look for him at any moment.

However, King Yun You and the others would not be able to obtain a single drop of the Green Lotus bloodline!

The scene in Heaven and Earth Palace was within the expectations of the Sect Master of the Academy.

The Sect Master of the Academy had only been putting on an act with him the entire time.

Thereafter, the Sect Master of the Academy made use of his clone to divert attention and charged into the Battle Kingdom with King Yun You and the others to get entangled with Lin Zhan and Immortal Queen Ling Long.

As for him, he sought Su Zimo on the Wither Star using his true body!

This plan not only schemed against King Yun You and the other three Immortal Kings, but it even implicated Lin Zhan and Immortal Queen Ling Long!

Suddenly, Su Zimo thought of an even more terrifying guess!

The reason why the Sect Master of the Academy plotted such a chess game might not only be for the Three Pure Ones Jade Manual and his Green Lotus True Body!

“Fufu.”

The Sect Master of the Academy’s eyes were deep and shone brightly, as though he had already seen through the thought that flashed through Su Zimo’s mind. He chuckled and asked leisurely, “From your expression, you’ve already guessed it?”

“You…”

Su Zimo clenched his fists with a cold expression.

“That’s right.”

The Sect Master of the Academy nodded slightly. “Since Immortal Queen Ling Long wants to join the game, I naturally won’t let her leave so easily.”

Indeed!

Su Zimo’s heart sank.

There was another legacy in the Taboo Mystic Cla.s.sic of the Technique Reserve, the Six Ren Divine Calculation. The Sect Master of the Academy wanted to obtain that from Immortal Queen Ling Long!

If the Sect Master of the Academy obtained the Yin Yang Talisman Sutra and the Six Ren Divine Calculation, it would be equivalent to mastering the complete Technique Reserve!

Su Zimo took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, “The Battle King and Immortal Queen Ling Long are both in the Battle Kingdom. The Battle King’s injuries have mostly recovered as well. It won’t be that easy for you to s.n.a.t.c.h the Six Ren Divine Calculation!”

“Not necessarily.”

The Sect Master of the Academy said with a fake smile. “I have you as bait.”

Su Zimo shuddered.
