Zhang Yi naturally knew that he did not have thousands of years to live after killing Elder Su Lian, if he did not kill her he could even die within a few years of discovering the truth, so he would leave Sword Sect after this tournament and go to a secluded place and then enter his mental energy world and cultivate until he had the ability to kill her.He knew he could even die without being able to kill her, after all, he would have to go inside the Sacred Phoenix Sect to kill elder Su Lian, after all, she would almost never leave the sect and after Sword Sect would kill almost all infiltrates in the divine Sect she would still be more careful after that.
With his current mental energy, he might not be detected by the emperor"s realm warriors, but it was impossible to hide from the divine realm elders and that would be the greatest danger to him.
Luckily he had the laws of the time when he came to a supreme understanding and would give him more chances of survival by invading the Sacred Phoenix Sect, but this he could think of for years to come while cultivating, now was the time to see the infiltrators of the organization of devouring soul die and thus quench his thirst for revenge a little.
After the elders returned with Zhang Yi from the visits and elder Yi received the list they had another meeting this time with the divine realm elders as well, so all sects naturally knew how important this next meeting was and would decide how Sword Sect would catch the infiltrators.
Divine realm elders already knew they had infiltrated the largest sects that had divine realm elders, and they also agreed that it was not a good idea for Sword Sect to capture the infiltrates of the largest sects.
But sects that had only one divine realm elder might be easier to deal with, Sword Sect had three divine realm elders in this tournament and they could speak privately with the divine realm elders of those sects to ask if they could do like them should.
They were certain that the divine realm elders of the smaller sects would accept that Sword Sect would investigate, but the larger sects and the other 9 major sects could never accept anything like this so it was better for Sword Sect to keep this secret for now.
The elders also searched for Elder Su Lian"s name to see if Zhang Yi could be attempting some kind of personal revenge using the Sword Sect, but when they didn"t see her name they took their suspicions of Zhang Yi.
After a few hours of discussion the Sword Sect elders decided how they were going to do, the divine realm elders would only talk to the biggest sects a few minutes before investigating to give the elders time to think while pressing for a quick response as well.
After all that was decided as it was done in the last tournaments the Sword Sect"s strongest elders made a big circle around an area so everyone knew the soul search would begin, so Elder Yi was the one with the full list went forward to speak with the sects.
"So another amazing tournament is over and I"m glad to see that Zhang Yi from my sect won the tournament among the disciples of the soul refinement realm and a Serenity Sect disciple won the tournament between the disciples of the emptiness realm."
"I don"t know when we will see such a big tournament and I was very happy with the presence of all the sects that came, now we are going to the saddest part after this tournament."
"All the sects here must know the agreement between the 10 largest sects and the many major sects that represent the greatest strength of this divine plane for our sect to seize the infiltration of organization among the divine plane sects."
"I need not say the evil that the soul-eater organization has done to our divine plane and so we gain that authority, for this particular tournament as the sects here have agreed to come to this tournament will do something different."
"We will capture the disciples and elders of the sects and do a soul search without killing or seriously injuring their souls and only then killing them if they are guilty."
"But let it be clear that once the guilt is proved and our sect uncovers and shows all the information, we are the ones who will kill these disciples and elders and the sects will not be able to say anything, it"s just a show of respect from our sect."
The sects were pleased to hear this because it was at least a major show of respect for the sects by giving the disciples and elders a chance to be innocent, if they are guilty the sect could say nothing about their death.
"Let"s call the name of the sect and I ask all members of that sect to come to the place marked and so we will begin the trial to make sure no one will run away."
After that elder Yi as well as other mind-energy elders gathered in front of the place marked that was surrounded by the strongest Sword Sect elders, only the strongest sects could fight to get out of this circle made by Sword Sect elders and to the minor sects was a perfect prison.
So the sects that were called went forward and entered the place marked and only after the disciples first began to be captured and pa.s.sed out by some elders, were some disciples at the same time for the investigation to proceed more quickly.
Just as promised the elders who cultivated mental energy were very careful and did not kill the unconscious disciples and just searched their souls and set them in a projection for all to see.
It was immediately clear that these disciples were infiltrated by the organization of the soul-eaters in this sect, and soon after the information on complicity was revealed these disciples were killed by the elders.
Even though everyone agreed that it was better for the sects that these disciples did not die before they were found guilty, the problem that happened was that after some disciples were caught in their memories some disciples and elders were infiltrating and were in this tournament were revealed too.
Fortunately, Sword Sect was quick and captured these people, when he was a ninth-level elder of the emperor"s realm even the elder of Sword Sect"s divine realm acted to capture this elder.
Even though revealed in the memories of the infiltrated disciples these disciples and elders were not yet killed in soul searching and only after proven guilty that they died, this first sect was chosen on purpose because all members of that sect came to this tournament.
And everyone could see that most of this sect was infiltrated members of the soul-eater organization, which left the elders and disciples of this sect shocked and frightened knowing that for many years they had lived with the enemy.
Of course, it was rare for sects in which most members were infiltrated by the soul-eater organization, but it still impressed everyone by showing that the problem was bigger than anyone imagined.
