Chapter 332 Retreating to Advance

Ye Fan had anticipated the anger of the Sirius Palace. He knew that the power of the Sirius Palace should not be underestimated, but for him, this was just a test that he had to go through. Since he had provoked the Sirius Palace, the best strategy was to make them feel helpless and consume their time and energy until he had enough strength to deal with greater challenges.

Ye Fan ordered that all activities of the Nirvana Sect must be kept low-key, and no one should show up at this time. In this way, the Heavenly Wolf Hall can only focus on the empty Nirvana Sect, wasting their time and resources.

Ye Fan knew that only his own strength could support the entire sect and gain a foothold in this turbulent world. At this moment, he did not think about the anger of the Sirius Palace or their revenge plan, but concentrated on practicing, striving to break through to a new realm in a short period of time.

The cultivation environment of Nirvana Sect is very suitable for him. The abundant spiritual energy and resources make his cultivation process smoother. Ye Fan has a very high talent, and with some forbidden methods he learned from the Demon Emperor, his progress is much faster than that of ordinary cultivators. In particular, his attainments in alchemy and formations have far surpassed most of his peers, and he can calmly deal with many powerful enemies.

In the past few months, he has been constantly using the various methods and skills given to him by the Demon Emperor to train his body, improve his soul, and steadily improve his cultivation. By refining a large number of pills, his alchemy skills have become more sophisticated, and he has even begun to make breakthroughs in some specific areas.

During the cultivation process, Ye Fan did not ignore the existence of the Demon Emperor. Although the Demon Emperor was a fallen being, his experience and wisdom were undoubtedly a huge asset to Ye Fan. Whenever Ye Fan encountered a bottleneck in his cultivation or had new questions, the Demon Emperor would appear in time to provide help.

The soul of the Demon Emperor is still controlled by Ye Fan, but his existence is always influencing Ye Fan subtly. Although the Demon Emperor's nature is not kind, and even extremely tyrannical, he always maintains respect for Ye Fan, because he knows that Ye Fan can fully control his power.

"Ye Fan, your cultivation has entered a new stage," the voice of the Demon Emperor suddenly sounded in Ye Fan's mind, "but you must understand that the greater the power, the greater the responsibility and risk. The revenge of the Sirius Palace is only the beginning. The situation in the Western Region has become complicated. You must be prepared to face greater challenges."

Ye Fan was not surprised, as he was used to the Demon Emperor's reminders. At this moment, he opened his eyes, looked towards the distance of the sect, and said calmly: "I know, Demon Emperor. Strength is the hard truth. Only by making yourself strong enough can you be qualified to gain a foothold in this world."

He took a deep breath, and slowly condensed a vast spiritual energy in his hands. This spiritual energy did not come from heaven and earth, but from his own practice and accumulation. This was the energy he gained through various methods of practice such as alchemy, weapon refining, and formation. This energy was enough to allow him to break through his limits in a short period of time.

"I'm about to break through." Ye Fan smiled slightly, feeling the spiritual energy in his body begin to surge out. He did not rush to make a move, but adjusted his state first, ensuring that every detail was done to the best.

In the next few months, Ye Fan remained calm and steady. He was not in a hurry to fight against the Sirius Palace, but continued to improve his strength, accumulate more resources, and prepare for future battles.

The low-key operation of Nirvana Sect did not affect the cultivation of the sect. On the contrary, because of this period of calm, many disciples have been given sufficient time to cultivate, and the overall strength has been significantly improved. Ye Fan also gradually realized that although the Heavenly Wolf Hall was still secretly tracking them, because the Nirvana Sect kept a low profile at this time, the Heavenly Wolf Hall could not find out the true situation of the sect. Ye Fan regarded this as an excellent opportunity. He knew that the revenge of the Heavenly Wolf Hall would come sooner or later, but by then he would be able to face it with a stronger attitude.

As his cultivation level continued to improve, Ye Fan's confidence grew stronger. He knew that if he wanted to truly defeat the Heavenly Wolf Temple, the existing strength alone was obviously far from enough. The Heavenly Wolf Temple had a very deep foundation, and even if they were a little damaged now, they might not be able to defeat them easily. He needed time and accumulation.

With the help of the Demon Emperor, Ye Fan's cultivation level increased rapidly like riding the wind and waves. He even began to try some high-level methods that he had not dared to touch before. These methods could bring him powerful strength, but there were also extremely high risks. Ye Fan chose to meet the challenge without hesitation.

After a while, Ye Fan finally made a breakthrough, and his cultivation reached a new height, and he already had the ability to truly fight against the Sirius Palace. At the same time, the Sirius Palace was still looking for his traces everywhere, but they could not catch any clues.

"Ye Fan," the Demon Emperor's voice sounded again, "Are you ready?"

Ye Fan smiled slightly, his eyes firm: "It's time. I won't wait any longer. Sirius Palace, since you dare to provoke me, then you must be prepared to face retribution."

He stood up, turned around and walked out of the sect with a sneer on his face: "The future of Nirvana Sect is controlled by me."

Ye Fan knew that the road ahead was full of challenges, especially facing such a powerful enemy as the Sirius Palace, but he had a firm belief in his heart - he was no longer the ignorant boy who had just traveled to this world. Now Ye Fan had enough wisdom, strength and determination to fight for his beliefs and pave the way for the future of Nirvana Sect.

He knew very well that the road of cultivation would never end, and only by continuous breakthroughs could he continue to grow. And now was the time for him to show his true strength.

After searching for a period of time, the Sirius Hall still failed to find any trace of the Nirvana Sect. For such an emerging force, the Sirius Hall originally thought that they would quickly find their lair, but as time went by, the Nirvana Sect seemed to disappear in the vast world of the Western Regions. The top leaders of the Sirius Hall finally realized that the Nirvana Sect might have been hiding, and might even have taken concealment measures in some places.

"It seems that the Nirvana Sect really doesn't dare to confront us head-on." Inside the main hall of the Heavenly Wolf Hall, an elder sneered, his voice full of contempt, "But that's just right, since they choose to hide, we don't have to waste time looking for them."

Another elder snorted coldly: "It's just a newly rising sect. It's not worth our efforts to chase it. On the contrary, this land originally belonged to us. If the Nirvana Sect doesn't dare to show up, then we will directly occupy this land and warn other forces that dare to plot against the Western Regions."

Therefore, the Heavenly Wolf Hall decided to temporarily give up the pursuit of the Nirvana Sect, and instead began to prepare to establish its own power on the original territory of the Nirvana Sect. After all, the Western Region is vast and rich in resources, and controlling these lands will provide them with more strategic advantages.

The Tianlang Palace has a strong military force and abundant resources. They did not send too many high-ranking figures to occupy the Nirvana Sect's territory this time, but only sent an advance team, with the goal of quickly controlling the Nirvana Sect's territory and eliminating any resistance.

The leader of the advance team was a disciple of the Heavenly Wolf Temple named Zhuo Yang. He wore the Heavenly Wolf Temple's iconic battle armor, had a stern face, sharp eyes, and exuded a powerful aura. Zhuo Yang was always confident and believed that the Nirvana Sect was just an emerging force. Even if they might do something, it was just a temporary disguise and could not pose a threat to the Heavenly Wolf Temple at all.

"Nirvana Sect, no matter what you are hiding, this land is ours!" Zhuo Yang stood in front of the Heavenly Wolf Temple's formation and whispered with a bit of disdain, "Since you dare not come out, we will take back your territory today."

He waved his hand to command the troops to start advancing. After the order was issued, dozens of elite disciples of the Heavenly Wolf Hall quickly marched towards the Nirvana Sect's territory with the formation. This team had powerful formation masters who could effectively find and break the hidden formations that the Nirvana Sect might have set up. Although the Nirvana Sect did not show strong resistance, they still acted cautiously.

As the advance team entered the border of Nirvana Sect, they found it was deserted, as if there was no defense force. The once glorious Nirvana Sect now seemed to be deserted. The towering mountain gate and the magnificent palace seemed unusually deserted.

"As expected, the Nirvana Sect is nothing but a paper tiger." Zhuo Yang sneered and ordered the team to go deeper. He believed that the people of the Nirvana Sect must be hiding, and their hiding place would eventually be discovered by them.

As the large group of troops advanced, the Nirvana Sect's territory was gradually annexed, and large tracts of land and resources were successfully brought under the control of the Heavenly Wolf Temple. Important resources such as the spirit veins, spiritual medicine bases, and mining areas that originally belonged to the Nirvana Sect were also quickly searched for, and the disciples of the Heavenly Wolf Temple began to dig and collect them.

Zhuo Yang watched all this, and the sneer on his face became deeper and deeper: "I knew that such a small sect would not be able to hide for long. As expected, they can't even do the most basic defense. It's really ridiculous."

However, although the Nirvana Sect seemed to be deserted, Zhuo Yang still felt a little uneasy. He couldn't help but look back, his eyes slightly sharp: "No matter how deep the people of the Nirvana Sect hide, they can't escape our control in the end. Today, we will let them know that the Heavenly Wolf Palace is the real ruler of the Western Regions!"

However, just as they successfully occupied the Nirvana Sect's territory and gradually suppressed the forces that originally belonged to the Nirvana Sect, the true strength of the Nirvana Sect was not fully exposed.

Although on the surface the Nirvana Sect showed no signs of resistance, in fact, Ye Fan and the high-level leaders of the Nirvana Sect had already anticipated this moment. The Nirvana Sect's hiding was not a complete disappearance, but a carefully planned concealment operation. Everyone was consciously hidden, and even some of the most basic defensive formations were set up.

More importantly, Ye Fan did not completely regard the Sirius Palace as an enemy, but chose to let them occupy this territory first, and then attack in one fell swoop when the time was right.

"Since you are so confident, Sirius Palace, let you be proud for a while." Ye Fan sat in the secret room of Nirvana Sect and smiled slightly, "This chess game has just begun."
