20: A storm is brewing

Dao Seeking Sect!

Chen Xuan brought Mr. and Mrs. Mu to the outside of Dao Seeking Sect.

Vice Minister Mu’s eyes widened, and he surveyed the scene before him with a look of utter astonishment.

The magnificent Sect Main Hall, like a heavenly palace, and the pavilions that pierced the clouds, seemingly reaching the Nine Heavens, were even more imposing than the imperial palace of the Great Yan Dynasty.

Although he had expected Sect Master Chen’s Sect to be extraordinary, this completely exceeded his imagination.

Vice Minister Mu felt that even the Immortal Realm described in the folk storybooks was probably no more than this!

Madam Mu walked carefully on the Sect Main Hall, feeling a bit uneasy at the moment.

"Qing'er, you usually Cultivate here? Is this really your Sect? Am I dreaming, Mother?" Her triple question made Mu Wanqing feel as if she was seeing her past self.

No wonder Revered Master used to live in a dilapidated Daoist temple to Cultivate.

"Mother, don't worry! Your daughter usually Cultivates in this Sect."

Vice Minister Mu glanced at his wife beside him, suppressing the shock on his face, and said, "Making a fuss, short-sighted."

"Sect Master Chen's Sect should naturally be like this."

Madam Mu gave an awkward smile and lowered her head a little shyly: "This humble woman has made Sect Master Chen laugh."

Chen Xuan waved his hand and said, "No matter, Wanqing, choose a quiet courtyard for Lord Mu. I have other matters, so I won't accompany you on your tour."

"Yes, Revered Master!" Mu Wanqing replied clearly!

Li Pingan also said, "Senior Sister, I'm going to Cultivate now too."

"Ah, Junior Brother, your injuries?" Mu Wanqing asked with some concern.

Li Pingan grinned and said, "After taking a Medicinal Pill Revered Master gave me, I've almost recovered."

Mu Wanqing breathed a sigh of relief, secretly thinking that Revered Master was indeed formidable.

Junior Brother is already at Martial Dao First Layer and still so diligent, I must also seize the time to Cultivate. As the dignified Senior Sister, my Realm is currently the lowest... After choosing a nice small courtyard for her Father and Mother, Mu Wanqing turned to devote herself to Cultivation.

If she had Revered Master's cultivation base today, Junior Brother wouldn't have been injured for this.

At the same time!

Inside a room in Dao Seeking Sect.

Ye Hao sat cross-legged on the bed, his surrounding Spiritual Qi suddenly surging violently, rushing into his body like a tide, a tingling, swelling pain erupting within him. His veins bulged like coiling Dragons, and every inch of his bones emitted tiny cracking sounds.

Pale golden fragments of immortal bone pierced through his skin from his flesh, reassembling. Ye Hao clenched his teeth tightly, his knuckles turning white, until the last piece of his spine let out a crisp resonance, and he finally collapsed, limp as if all strength had left him.

He wiped the sweat from his forehead, his eyes full of joy. "Revered Master's Chaos Heavenly Evolution Art is simply incredible; I actually truly reshaped my immortal bone. Not only that, but the immortal bone that grew back this time is even harder and of better quality than before!"

Thinking of this, Ye Hao couldn't help but clench his fists and look out the window: "Ye Jing, I wonder what kind of expression you'll have when we meet next time."

After resting for a moment, Ye Hao continued to devote himself to Cultivation.

If it were other Sects, one would have to go out to complete Sect missions! But within Dao Seeking Sect, as long as you are willing, all twelve hours of the day can be used for Cultivation.

In the Main Hall!

Chen Xuan glanced at the prestige value on the System panel. Buying a Nourishing Origin Pill for the second Disciple cost 10 points. Fortunately, he hadn't gone all-in before; he had foresight.

Now, 170 prestige points remained.

Golden Core Sixth Layer cultivation base requires 600 prestige points. Earning money is not easy!

"Shearing the wool of three Disciples is completely insufficient; I need to recruit more Disciples," Chen Xuan sighed lightly, but fortunately, things were much better now than when he first Transmigrated.

Moreover, there's another point: being worshipped can also earn contribution points. If I were to reason (threaten) with people based on my Realm, would that also count as worship?

Chen Xuan smiled at the corner of his mouth, thinking that the System shouldn't have such a loophole.

However, since the System is called the Strongest Sect System, it seems that besides recruiting Disciples, as long as the Sect is greatly promoted, corresponding prestige points should also be obtainable.

He caught a glimpse of the lottery with the corner of his eye; his luck value was 13!

Forget it, I'll save up money instead of drawing any damn prizes... The next day!

A piece of news was circulating among Cultivators in the outside world.

"Have you heard? A Sect called Dao Seeking Sect actually killed Po Shan Sect's Second Elder."

"What?! Is this Dao Seeking Sect so daring? They even dare to provoke Po Shan Sect? Don't they know that the previous one who provoked Po Shan Sect had their Sect's historic site dismantled?"

"Dao Seeking Sect? I think I have some impression! Ah... I remember now, I saw this Sect recruiting Disciples at the Immortal Ascension Assembly in East Stone Valley a few days ago. They wrote something about a daily reward of at least six hours of Cultivation time, isn't that just nonsense?"

"I remember too, there was indeed such a person that day! That person was incredibly bold, daring to kill Po Shan Sect's Outer Sect Elder with a single palm strike in broad daylight."

"Wow, that's too arrogant! Isn't that like slapping Po Shan Sect hard in the face? Didn't Po Shan Sect send people to hunt them down?"

"I don't know about that, but let's just wait and see the show. With Po Shan Sect's foundation, there will definitely be a big movement in the next two days."

Cultivators and various forces, big and small, near East Stone Valley all had different thoughts, quietly awaiting Po Shan Sect's next move.

Inside Po Shan Sect.

The Third Elder came to the Sect Main Hall and said, "Sect Master, I have already had the Disciples spread the news. All the Cultivators in this vicinity are aware of this matter."

Sect Master Song Ming nodded and said, "Very good."

The Third Elder's expression was puzzled, somewhat confused, and after thinking for a moment, he still asked, "Sect Master, why are we doing this?"

Song Ming glanced at him but did not speak.

The Grand Elder lightly coughed and explained, "This time, destroying Dao Seeking Sect, firstly, is to seek justice for the Second Elder and others, and to make the world understand a principle: our Po Shan Sect is not to be provoked casually."

"Secondly, and most importantly, the Sect Master has already broken through to the Golden Core Realm. Destroying Dao Seeking Sect is merely a flick of the wrist. How can such a good opportunity be without an audience?"

"The Sect Master intends to use this Dao Seeking Sect as a stepping stone to proclaim to the Eastern Region that our Po Shan Sect also has a Golden Core Expert presiding over it, preparing for our eventual separation from Azure Nether Sword Sect."

The Third Elder suddenly understood: "So that's it, Sect Master's insight is profound!"

"Then, when shall we depart for Dao Seeking Sect?"

Song Ming pondered for a moment, then said in a deep voice, "The day after tomorrow will be fine. Let the news ferment for two days; the more people who know, the better. Only then can it truly enhance the reputation of our Po Shan Sect."

The Third Elder remembered something and whispered, "Sect Master, what about that Cultivation Genius who caused the heavenly phenomena?"

"At that time, we will give him an opportunity. If he is willing to pledge allegiance to our Po Shan Sect, then we will give him an Inner Sect Disciple quota. If not..." Song Ming's lips curved into a sinister smile, his gaze dark.

"No matter how good a Cultivation Genius, they must be alive to Cultivate. In this world, the last thing we lack are so-called Geniuses."

The Third Elder nodded in agreement: "Indeed."

Only by breaking through to the Golden Core Realm and becoming a powerful figure in this Eastern Region can one be called a 'Cultivation Genius!'
