29: When all rules are established, divine soldiers descend from the heavens!

The affair of the Qingyun Branch had settled.

Chu Xuanjin returned to the Myriad Dao Divine Mountain, the core Holy Land that belonged solely to him and his Personal Disciple.

Inside the Myriad Dao Hall, he sat alone upon the Sect Master's throne, his fingertips lightly tapping the armrest; the hall was vast, and the echoes were clear.

Thousands of Disciples, one affiliated Sect.

This was no longer child's play.

A mature Sect must have its own rules and order.

"System, check the grand gift package rewards." His thoughts stirred.

【Counting for you...】

Rows upon rows of dazzling item lists scrolled through his Sea of Consciousness like a waterfall.

Cultivation Techniques, Magic Treasures, and Medicinal Pills—the sheer quantity was enough to make any Sect in the Eastern Desolate Region green with envy to the point of madness.

Chu Xuanjin's gaze skipped directly over the Yellow Rank and Profound Rank miscellaneous items, landing on the very top line.

【Immortal Artifact * 1 (Growable type, unnamed, requires the Sect Master to personally name and activate)】

With a thought, that Immortal Artifact appeared in his palm.

It was a sword.

A long sword, pitch-black throughout, yet it seemed as if molten gold were flowing within it.

The blade was long and narrow, without a guard or scabbard, and the edge shimmered with a dark golden sharpness that seemed capable of swallowing light itself.

At the hilt was carved a coiled black Dragon, its eyes tightly shut, as if in slumber.

An aura of dominance, nobility, and endless destruction emanated from the sword body.

"Not bad, I am just in need of a handy weapon."

Chu Xuanjin's fingers lightly brushed over the cold blade.

He could feel that this sword was yearning for battle, yearning to drink blood.

He placed the sword to the side and shifted his gaze further down.

【Sect Growth-level Cultivation Technique: Myriad Dao Origin Returning Art * 1!】

Chu Xuanjin carefully examined the introduction of this Cultivation Technique.

【Myriad Dao Origin Returning Art: Those who Cultivate this method will have a solid Dao foundation and can master all techniques; it is the best primary Mind-Cultivation Technique for Disciples of the Myriad Dao Divine Sect.】

"Good stuff."

He immediately understood the value of this Cultivation Technique.

The 《Dao》 was too profound and only suitable for himself.

The divine skills of his Personal Disciples were all unique.

This Myriad Dao Origin Returning Art perfectly solved the Cultivation problems for ordinary Disciples and those of the affiliated Sect.

"However, I cannot give it all away at once."

A trace of calculation flashed in Chu Xuanjin's eyes.

"Human hearts need guidance. No one will cherish things obtained for free."

He decided to only distribute the first three levels of this Cultivation Technique—the methods corresponding to Qi Refining, Foundation Establishment, and Golden Core—as the basic Cultivation Technique.

As for the rest, it would naturally have to be exchanged for things of equal value.

Thinking of this, a complete Sect operational System gradually took shape in his mind.

"With so many things, I cannot just stuff them all into my storage ring."

He looked at the massive list of resources and had another idea.

【Ding! Detected Host's needs, triggered special reward!】

【Congratulations Host for obtaining: Divine Artifact · myriad dao ring * 1!】

【myriad dao ring: Bound to the space of the Myriad Dao Divine Mountain, the Host can use this ring to retrieve any item from the Myriad Dao Divine Sect treasury anytime, anywhere.】

A simple, pitch-black ring carved with starlight patterns appeared silently on Chu Xuanjin's fingertip.

He put on the ring and probed it with his Divine Thought.

Cultivation Technique Pavilion, Treasure Artifact Pavilion, Medicinal Pill Room...

Those rewards he had just obtained were already categorized and neatly arranged within.

"Much more convenient."

Chu Xuanjin nodded with satisfaction.

Everything was ready; the only thing missing was the east wind.

"System, in the name of my Myriad Dao Divine Sect, establish a complete contribution point System."

【Ding! Generating 【Contribution Point System】 for you... Generation complete!】

A clear light screen unfolded before Chu Xuanjin's eyes.

Chu Xuanjin looked at this detailed list, a satisfied expression appearing in his eyes.

Rewards and punishments, input and output.

This System was enough to stimulate the ambition of any Disciple.

With a thought, a voice transmission was sent directly to the ears of Yun Tianqing at the Qingyun Branch.

"Come to the Myriad Dao Hall to see me."

...

After only a moment.

Yun Tianqing's figure appeared outside the Myriad Dao Hall.

Today he had changed into a simple gray robe, his expression respectful, not daring to overstep in the slightest.

"Disciple Yun Tianqing pays respects to the Sect Master."

"Come in."

Yun Tianqing walked into the main hall and looked at the figure sitting high on the throne; his awe deepened.

"From this day forth, you are the Branch Master of the Myriad Dao Divine Sect's Qingyun Branch, and also an Outer Sect Elder of my Sect."

As Chu Xuanjin spoke, an Elder token cast from silver floated slowly toward Yun Tianqing.

Yun Tianqing hurriedly received it with both hands.

"Thank you, Sect Master!"

"This is my Sect's contribution point System; take a good look."

Chu Xuanjin flicked his finger, and a light screen clearly presented that System before Yun Tianqing.

Yun Tianqing's gaze followed from top to bottom, reading every word.

His breathing gradually became rapid.

An unprecedented light erupted in his eyes.

As a Sect Master himself, he knew better than anyone the value of this System!

This was not just a set of rules; this was clearly a path to the heavens!

It pointed out an incredibly clear path of advancement for every Disciple within the Sect!

As long as they worked hard and made contributions to the Sect, they could exchange for resources they previously dared not even imagine!

Earth Rank Cultivation Techniques! Heaven Rank Medicinal Pills! Even... even the opportunity to gain enlightenment under the legendary ancient enlightenment tea tree!

"The Sect Master is far-sighted; this Disciple... is impressed to the point of prostration!"

Yun Tianqing's voice trembled with excitement.

"This is the method for the first three levels of the Myriad Dao Origin Returning Art."

Chu Xuanjin flicked out another Jade Slip.

"Take it, make ten thousand copies, and distribute them to all Disciples of the Branch."

"Tell them this is just the beginning. If they want the subsequent Cultivation Techniques, stronger Divine Abilities, endless Medicinal Pills and Magic Treasures..."

Chu Xuanjin's voice carried a hint of temptation.

"Then let them use their swords and their sweat to earn enough contribution points for the Sect."

Yun Tianqing gripped the Jade Slip tightly and nodded heavily.

"This Disciple understands! This Disciple will go do it immediately!"

He turned and was about to leave.

"Wait." Chu Xuanjin called him back.

"Does the Sect Master have any other instructions?"

Chu Xuanjin's gaze became profound.

"Give orders to the Branch's Intelligence Hall to compile a list for me of all the famous Geniuses in the Eastern Desolate Region—whether they are Sect Saints, noble family goddesses, or wild Loose Cultivators—as long as they possess Luck and extraordinary talent."

He paused, a curve appearing at the corner of his mouth.

"The doors of my Myriad Dao Divine Sect should be opened once more."

Yun Tianqing felt a chill in his heart and immediately understood.

The Sect Master intends to... take in more Personal Disciples!

"This Disciple obeys!"

Yun Tianqing received the order and left, his steps hurried and full of drive.

Inside the main hall, silence was restored.

Chu Xuanjin picked up the black-gold long sword and stood up.

He walked outside the hall, looking at the churning sea of clouds and the magnificent mountains and rivers.

"A sleeping Dragon should also have its own name."

He looked down at the black Dragon on the sword body with its eyes closed, as if he could hear its low growl before awakening.

He thought for a moment and spoke.

"From now on, you shall be named..."

"Immortal Slayer."
