76: Build your own sect with your own hands

“Seizing a Sect’s mountain gate?”

“Su Fan, we just left the Qingyang Sword Sect. Are we really going to establish a Sect so soon?”

Chu Qinglian couldn’t help but ask.

“Yes, Wuchen just obtained the Ten Thousand Army Swordplay. If we establish a Sect with this swordplay, many powerful individuals will surely emerge in the future.”

Su Fan’s decision seemed to have been thoroughly thought out, and his tone was very firm.

“But do we have to seize a Sect’s mountain gate directly? Lei Province is so vast, we can find another treasure land.”

Su Fan waved his hand.

“No, I want the Blood Shadow Demon Sect’s territory.”

Chu Qinglian gritted her teeth, showing a hesitant expression countless times. Finally, she couldn't help but continue to question:

“Do you know how powerful the Blood Shadow Demon Sect is?”

“Over the past hundred years, the Blood Shadow Demon Sect has acquired a large number of treasures and Spirit Stones by relying on the Ice and Fire Secret Realm. Coupled with such evil Cultivation Techniques of the Yao Race, they are even more bizarre and terrifying. Their Cultivation speed is even twice that of other Sects.”

“The current Blood Shadow Demon Sect not only possesses at least three Peak Ninth Level of the Spirit Sea Realm experts, but also more than twenty Late Stage and Mid Stage Spirit Sea Realm experts. Its strength is several times stronger than the Qingyang Sword Sect, even surpassing the Ji Family of Half-Mountain City.”

“No matter how strong you are, how can you defeat three Peak Ninth Level of the Spirit Sea Realm experts at the same time? It’s impossible!”

Among everyone present, Chu Qinglian was the most knowledgeable about the various forces in Lei Province.

The Blood Shadow Demon Sect’s strength was far greater than the Qingyang Sword Sect’s.

Otherwise, how could it have survived for so long in the Lei Province as an evil demonic Sect?

Su Fan smiled indifferently.

“A mere Blood Shadow Demon Sect. With just one man and one sword, I can slaughter their entire Sect.”

Chu Qinglian shook her head helplessly.

Forget it. Who told her to agree to be Su Fan’s Dao Protector back then?

Even if it was a mountain of daggers and a sea of fire, she would be forced to go with him.

Before the flying ship restarted, Chu Qinglian and Su Fan looked at Yu Ruoxue simultaneously, with a tacit understanding.

Ruoxue, what should we do?

“Ruoxue, Revered Master and Peak Lord Su have already broken ties with the Qingyang Sword Sect and had to leave the Sect. But you are still a member of the Qingyang Sword Sect. You don’t have to follow us and suffer. If you want to go back, Revered Master will send you back first.”

Chu Qinglian stepped forward and gently held Yu Ruoxue’s hand.

This was a Genius Disciple she had personally nurtured. Chu Qinglian had once placed high hopes on her, but unfortunately, she later followed Su Fan around and never returned after the Sect Competition.

“Ruoxue is willing to follow Revered Master. To the ends of the earth, Ruoxue will go.”

Chu Qinglian smiled with relief.

She gently held Yu Ruoxue’s hand, and after a difficult hesitation, looked at Su Fan.

If it were in the past, she would never have dreamed of saying such words.

“Su Fan, I have a request.”

Su Fan frowned, vaguely guessing Chu Qinglian’s thoughts.

“What is it?”

“Do you think Ruoxue is qualified… to be your Disciple?”

Yu Ruoxue’s body tensed.

“Revered Master!”

“Shut up!”

Chu Qinglian glared at her.

She was the Vice Sect Leader of the Qingyang Sword Sect, and her Cultivation was currently higher than Su Fan’s. Moreover, they had always treated each other as peers.

She couldn’t bring herself to ask Su Fan to take her as his Disciple.

But Yu Ruoxue could.

Chu Qinglian wasn’t foolish. Seeing Su Fan’s Disciples each receiving Heaven-Grade Magic Treasure rewards, and countless Earth-Grade and Profound-Grade Medicinal Pills and Magic Treasures, even she, a powerful Spirit Sea Realm expert, felt envious.

If Yu Ruoxue followed her, she would at most Cultivate to the Spirit Sea Realm in the future, and might even stop at the Fourth Level or Fifth Level of the Spirit Sea Realm. This was the upper limit for countless ordinary Prodigies.

But if she followed Su Fan, it would be different.

Her future achievements would at least be above her own.

“I need to consider this matter.”

Su Fan didn’t immediately agree.

Chu Qinglian grew anxious.

“Ruoxue’s talent is very good. In the Qingyang Sword Sect’s Sect Competition, her talent was only second to Ling’er’s. Although her Comprehension Ability is not as good as Ling’er’s, her Heart-Nature is excellent, and she Cultivates diligently. She is also an excellent seedling…”

Su Fan quickly raised his hand to stop her.

He called Yu Ruoxue in front of him, his tone still calm:

“I, Su Fan, have two standards for accepting Disciples. First, they must have extraordinary talent, with the bearing of a Prodigy. Second, they must have a pure disposition and a heart for good.”

At this point, Su Fan paused before continuing:

“I trust Sect Leader Chu’s judgment and know that you are devoted to good. However, your talent is still a bit short of the bearing of a Prodigy, so I still need to consider it.”

To actively explain so much, Su Fan had already given Chu Qinglian enough Face.

Although Yu Ruoxue was a Prodigy, she couldn’t be called a Prodigy.

Su Fan had recently obtained a large number of Saint Grade Medicinal Pills, but he had not obtained any more Ancient Soul Refining Pills.

He still had six Ancient Soul Refining Pills left, and each one was extremely precious.

If it weren’t for a Divine Grade Physique, Su Fan currently had no intention of accepting Disciples.

“Ruoxue understands. However, Ruoxue is willing to follow Revered Master on this trip and go to the Blood Shadow Demon Sect with Peak Lord Su.”

After being rejected by Su Fan, Yu Ruoxue, although momentarily disappointed, quickly adjusted.

Indeed, not just anyone could become Su Fan’s Disciple.

As long as she stayed by Su Fan’s side, there might still be an opportunity in the future… The flying ship headed north. Chu Qinglian’s personality was much more cautious than Su Fan’s. She deliberately bypassed the territories of many large Sects and major forces along the way to avoid unnecessary trouble.

After many detours, it took seven days to reach the Blood Shadow Demon Sect’s territory.

During these seven days, Su Fan and his Disciples also made further progress.

Su Fan took the Ancestral Dragon Blood and advanced from the Third Level of the Core Formation Realm to the Fourth Level of the Core Formation Realm.

His Core Formation patterns were truly too terrifying. If not for the help of the Ancestral Dragon Blood, he might never have been able to Breakthrough in his lifetime.

The immense spiritual power required was unimaginable.

On the day of his Breakthrough, the entire flying ship was almost burst open by the spiritual power that erupted. It was Chu Qinglian who exerted herself to stabilize the flying ship.

Then there was Xiao Ling’er, who broke through from the Fifth Level of the Origin Opening Realm to the Sixth Level of the Origin Opening Realm.

A minor Realm in seven days was already an unimaginably terrifying speed for other Prodigies.

But Xiao Ling’er was still somewhat dissatisfied.

Chu Wuchen’s Divine Soul strength did not increase, but he used the seven days to initially Revered Master Alchemy.

He had even begun to attempt refining Medicinal Pills.

Little Gu Yuan’s Yao Race Realm still remained at the second stage, equivalent to the Human Race’s Body Tempering Realm.

However, compared to before, it was more solid, and there was already a faint trend towards breaking through to the next Realm.

All four had made some degree of Breakthrough and progress, which made Chu Qinglian and Yu Ruoxue sigh inwardly.

“Su Fan, we’ve arrived.”

Chu Qinglian stopped the flying ship thirty miles outside the Blood Shadow Demon Sect.

There was a Human Race city here—Bei Han City.

It was just right for everyone to settle down.

“Revered Master, what do we do now?”

Su Fan took out two Storage Pouches filled with Spirit Stones.

“Purchase. Buy all the Materials needed to build a Sect, such as stone bricks, wooden boards, and Formations.”

“We… will personally build our own Sect!”
