457: lottery

The Azure Origin Sect has a total of four major factions.

The faction with the most power is the ruling faction headed by the Sect Head, which includes the former head of the Law Enforcement Hall, Zhou Changqing's Revered Master, True Person Tianshu, and the heads of other powerful departments within the Sect.

In the Azure Origin Sect, this faction possesses the greatest influence.

The second faction is led by the Grand Elder who manages all departments related to techniques. He is responsible for the peaks where skills are taught to Disciples, including the Alchemy Hall, the Formation Hall, and so on.

If the Sect Head's faction has the most power, then the Grand Elder's faction has deeper influence.

After all, the four major cultivation arts, along with other miscellaneous skills, are basically all managed by this Grand Elder.

The third faction is relatively weaker than the first two, primarily led by the Second Elder who is in charge of logistics and allocation within the Sect.

The highest power structure of the Azure Origin Sect is the Elder Council led by the Sect Head. This Elder Council consists of only four Elders, who are responsible for discussing and deliberating on major Sect affairs.

Below this are the heads of the various peaks and halls, followed by the Deputy Hall Revered Masters and Deputy Peak Revered Masters, and further down are the Inner Sect Elders.

Although these people are also called Elders, everyone generally refers to them as Inner Sect Elders.

Only the four Elders of the Elder Council can be called Grand Elder, Second Elder, and so on.

Below the Elders are the Deacons, and below the Deacons are the Disciples, who are further divided into different Ranks.

In addition to this, the entire Sect is divided into two parts: inner and outer.

People in the Outer Sect are naturally a Rank lower than those in the Inner Sect.

This constitutes the entire power structure of the Azure Origin Sect.

Although this Second Elder does not have as much power and influence as the first two, he controls the lifeblood of the Azure Origin Sect, so naturally, many people follow him.

For example, Zhou Changle's Revered Master, Purple Yang True Person, belongs to his faction.

The final faction is jointly formed by the Third Elder and the Fourth Elder; calling it a faction of two Elders is not quite accurate.

Because they share a common Revered Master: the strongest Nascent Soul Great Cultivator on the surface of the Azure Origin Sect, the Sect's Grand Elder.

Although this Grand Elder basically never interferes with Sect affairs, because both the Third Elder and the Fourth Elder are his Disciples, combined with his own strength, they also form a faction of their own.

Compared to the open and secret struggles of the first three factions, this fourth faction has always been a neutral existence, rarely getting involved in the disputes of other factions.

But who in this world can remain indifferent to power and strength?

Although the two Elders have always maintained a stance of not fighting or competing on the surface, who knows what schemes they have behind the scenes?

For instance, this time, when Zhou Changqing said those words, he was facing members of the Heaven Alliance, and only one Disciple belonged to the Third Elder's faction.

Now that these words have spread, who is manipulating all of this behind the scenes?

Therefore, it is said that crows are black all over the world; one should never judge things solely by their appearance.

It is estimated that this incident will bring about new twists and turns.

Compared to these, Zhou Luo is more concerned about which Golden Core True Person the Azure Origin Sect will send to take charge this time.

A few days later, the new Golden Core True Person arrived at Qingyuan Immortal City.

The other party was very low-key, so this matter did not spread, but among Foundation Establishment cultivators like Zhou Luo, it was already known.

This time, the one from the Grand Elder's faction replacing Mystic Dragon True Person to manage Qingyuan Immortal City is known as Mystic Shadow True Person.

That's right, this Golden Core True Person and Mystic Dragon True Person are fellow Disciples.

It seems the Sect also knows that with a great enemy at hand, things cannot be pushed too far.

Therefore, it was unanimously decided internally to let Mystic Dragon True Person's Junior Brother take over his position, which can be considered a form of indirect appeasement.

The arrival of Mystic Shadow True Person did not cause much of a sensation because he specifically emphasized that he was only temporarily acting in the role, so there was no need for a grand welcome; he even declined congratulatory gifts sent by several Foundation Establishment powerhouses.

Upon learning this news, Zhou Luo felt it was just as well, as it saved him from having to second-guess the thoughts of this Golden Core True Person.

Qingyuan Immortal City had changed its person in charge, but it did not change everyone's daily routine. Everyone continued to cultivate hard for the Golden Core Realm, and occasionally some would be curious about the great war between the two Immortal Sects and head to the Dragon Phoenix Mountain Range to observe.

Half a year later.

Zhou Luo welcomed his seventy-second child, as one of his concubines conceived again.

【Congratulations to the Host for your tireless efforts in successfully causing a Dao Companion to conceive. You have received one lottery chance.】

This time, when heading to the Golden Cloud Domain, he had already used the Rank 3 Spirit Pill he drew last time.

Although the residual Sword Intent was still in his body and helping him transform his Physique.

But after using it, it was no longer possible to unleash the terrifying might he had displayed back then.

So under these circumstances, he naturally hoped to draw something good to use as his trump card.

It would be best if it could improve his immediate combat power, like a Rank 3 Spirit Pill or something similar.

With this thought in mind, he immersed his consciousness into the lottery interface.

The large red wheel was already covered with purple patterns, like vines, which were eroding the entire wheel.

It seems that once he completely steps into the Golden Core Realm, he will be able to obtain a brand-new purple wheel.

"Start the lottery!"

Zhou Luo silently thought to himself, hoping to draw something good.

The golden light orb spun rapidly and, under his gaze, gradually stopped in the 'Other' section.

Seeing this section, Zhou Luo's heart sank by half.

Because he had more than once drawn various things in this section that were beneficial to his offspring.

Whether it was Physique, Innate Qi, and so on.

Although having powerful offspring could also benefit him.

But compared to relying on his children, he preferred to make himself stronger, which would make doing things much smoother.

"Please, don't let it be for my descendants, or I'll really have to call you a 'dad-scamming' System."

Zhou Luo thought to himself.

【Congratulations to the Host for obtaining a Battle Puppet!】

【The reward has been automatically placed into the Host's inventory. Please check it!】

"Battle Puppet?"

Zhou Luo was shocked, his heart stirred with turbulent waves.

He had originally thought that this lottery would most likely be something to be used on his descendants again.

Unexpectedly, he had actually drawn the very Battle Puppet he had once seen at the Golden Cloud Auction House.

As a type of Puppet, the Battle Puppet possesses attack power far exceeding other Puppets. Although it lacks intelligence, the power it releases is incomparable to other Puppets.

Back at the auction, that damaged Battle Puppet was originally a being capable of unleashing Golden Core Realm power.

It's just unclear what Rank the Battle Puppet he drew is.

With this thought in mind, Zhou Luo immediately looked at his inventory.

In the nine-grid inventory slot, he saw the mark of the Battle Puppet.

【Five Elements Battle Puppet】

【Rank: Rank 3】

【Description: Created by a Rank 4 Puppet Revered Master using five different elemental materials, this Battle Puppet contains the power of the Five Elements within its body and can itself unleash the might of a Low Grade Golden Core Realm...】
