Complete Main Quest: Master of the Three Prefectures

Promotion Rewards:

Including the Fengling branch Sect in the statistics, the total number of Disciples and Elders under the Moonshadow Sect has now exceeded 380,000!

There are five Void Refinement Stage Cultivators. Within the territory of the three prefectures, excluding Yu Zhaohua and Shui Wanqing, the Realms of Yu Lingshuang, Yu Linglong, and Chi Shuying can reach the Tribulation Transcendence Stage.

There are 520 Body Integration Stage Cultivators and over 3,000 Soul Transformation Stage Cultivators. In terms of the number of Soul Transformation Cultivators alone, it may not yet equal the total of the entire Cangwu Prefecture, but these 500+ Body Integration Stage powerhouses have their names engraved on the everlasting light tablet. Within the territory of these three prefectures, they are walking Void Refinement Stage Cultivators!

Excluding Ling Hao, with this foundation, the Moonshadow Sect is enough to sweep across the Cangwu Prefecture with one Sect, holding its head high above the rest.

As for the conditions for promoting to a Rank 8 Sect—needing 30 Void Refinement Stage Cultivators and 3 Tribulation Transcendence Stage (2-Tribulation Loose Immortal) Cultivators, while somewhat challenging, it is not unattainable.

What truly made Ling Hao feel a bit "painful" was the second condition: 100,000! 100,000 core Disciples at the Golden Core Stage or above must engrave their true names on the everlasting light tablet.

This... plus daily maintenance, just thinking about the massive consumption of Origin Spiritual Qi, I fear that even a Mahayana Stage Physical Body could not withstand such "drain".

It seems that only by completing the "Master of the Three Prefectures" main quest as soon as possible will it work.

His gaze fell on the newly acquired "Ambrosia Pavilion". Ling Hao's mind stirred, and a detailed introduction appeared before his eyes.

Ambrosia Pavilion: When a Cultivator's cultivation reaches the Peak of this Realm (Mahayana Perfection), they can channel their own supreme cultivation Origin and infuse it into a Disciple's jade marrow spiritual apertures, helping them temporarily enter the "State of No Defilement".

In this state, the Disciple's spiritual platform is clear as a newborn infant, and the Meridians throughout their body are unobstructed, like uncut jade. It can seamlessly carry the infusion of a Mahayana Supreme's cultivation insights and Dao principles. The progress of cultivation is like "Ambrosia filling the top" (sudden enlightenment), advancing a thousand miles in a single day.

This pavilion is truly a supreme Sharp Weapon for rapidly improving Disciples' cultivation Realms! Of course, the price is...

Well, it is quite "cultivation-consuming", literally.

His gaze shifted downwards,

"Promote to Rank 8, and you can obtain a Low Grade Immortal Vein?!!"

A surge of joy welled up in Ling Hao's heart.

For a Mahayana Cultivator to ascend, the essential path is to convert the spiritual power within their body into Immortal Qi of a higher level.

This process can be done slowly through grinding effort, or by seeking Heaven And Earth Treasures containing Immortal Qi or even auxiliary Immortal Stones. The latter can significantly shorten the conversion time.

Ling Hao was worrying about this very matter, and the System delivered this generous gift just in time. Good, very good!

If not for the fact that Su Shang could not appear for the time being, Ling Hao would really want to hold her and kiss her a few times to show his commendation.

"Ding! Please designate the placement location for the [Ancestral Blood Pool]."

This Ancestral Blood Pool is set up for Awakening or purifying the Yao Race Bloodline. At the moment, only the Merfolk Race in the Sect is applicable. For them, this pool is undoubtedly a supreme treasure.

Ling Hao firmly believes that as the Moonshadow Sect's territory expands and its reputation spreads far and wide, it will definitely attract more Yao Race Bloodlines to join in the future.

Moreover, the Ancestral Blood Pool not only benefits the Yao Race but also has an evolutionary effect on Cultivators with ordinary Physiques. It is truly a commonly used facility. Placing it next to the Five Elements Chaos Spirit Pool is the most appropriate.

"Houde Peak!"

Houde Peak, beside the Five Elements Chaos Spirit Pool.

The ground trembled slightly, and spiritual mist surged. A blood-colored pool appeared out of thin air. The pool walls were engraved with prehistoric Yao patterns. The pool water was viscous like paste, with a dark red color approaching black, exuding a majestic and primitive vitality and a faint pressure. It stood side by side with the Five Elements Chaos Spirit Pool, which was shrouded in five-colored clouds, forming a strange and harmonious scene.

Ling Hao's figure appeared silently by the pool.

In and around the Five Elements Chaos Spirit Pool, many Disciples were using the pool water to improve the quality of their Spiritual Roots.

Most of them were draped in thin gauze. The pool water soaked the thin gauze, clinging to their exquisite jade bodies, with spring scenes appearing and disappearing, adding a bit of allure.

Suddenly seeing the Sect Master arrive in person, the women were pleasantly surprised, and the sound of orioles and swallows immediately rang out.

"Ah! Sect Master!"

"It's Sect Master!"

"Is the Sect Master here to watch us Cultivate?"

"What is that newly appeared blood pool next to it? It feels so mysterious..." "Could it be a new Opportunity bestowed by the Sect Master?"

The commotion quickly alerted the Elder in charge here. A graceful figure drifted over.

"Sect Master."

Luo Qianxue bowed respectfully, her eyes curiously cast toward the Ancestral Blood Pool with its vastly different aura.

Ling Hao nodded and said concisely:

"This is the Ancestral Blood Pool. It can help the Yao Race awaken or purify their Bloodline Origin, and it can also promote the evolution of ordinary Physiques."

As soon as these words were spoken, the watching Disciples were immediately excited, and their eyes flashed with brilliance.

Ling Hao swept his gaze over the scene before him. In the pool and by the pool, thin gauze was graceful, jade bodies were radiant, and where the water rippled, the scenery was limitless.

He coughed lightly and said loudly: "Disciples in the Five Elements Chaos Spirit Pool, come up for now."

As soon as these words were spoken, the Disciples in the pool and Luo Qianxue were all stunned.

Some quick-witted female Disciples looked at the Sect Master, then at the charming scene around them, and then thought of the Sect Master. They could not help but blush, strong anticipation and excitement flashed in their eyes. Some even quietly straightened their waists, letting the soaked gauze outline more seductive curves.

Luo Qianxue's eyes flickered, and she directly asked via voice transmission,

"Sect Master... are you planning to... preach and teach here?"

Ling Hao looked at this group of Disciples who had instantly misunderstood, showing anticipation and even some eagerness, as well as Luo Qianxue's meaningful gaze, and for a moment he did not know whether to laugh or cry.

"Cough,"

He explained somewhat helplessly,

"Do not overthink it. I just intend to make some slight modifications to this Five Elements Chaos Spirit Pool."

Those Disciples immediately showed disappointed expressions.

After they all came up, Ling Hao's mind stirred, and he clicked the confirmation on the System interface.

"Ding! Five Elements Chaos Spirit Pool upgraded to [Chaos Azure Lotus Pool]!"

In an instant, the Five Elements Chaos Spirit Pool burst forth with brilliant light!

Deep at the bottom of the pool, a point of bright cyan light broke through the soil, growing and dividing rapidly.

In the left area, stalks of emerald green azure lotuses rose up, the lotus leaves as wide as covers, with veins like Dao patterns.

The lotus flowers were about to bloom, thoroughly clear, exuding a pure Origin aura. The cyan Spiritual Qi was dense like smoke, covering half of the pool.

In the right area, patches of golden lotuses and jade lotuses with vastly different forms grew.

The golden lotuses were dazzling, the petals like forged gold foil, circulating a fierce and powerful aura; the jade lotuses were warm and flawless, the whole body carved like top-grade mutton-fat white jade, exuding a gentle halo that nourished flesh and blood and reshaped bones.

The gold and silver spiritual light intertwined and rose, distinct from the cyan clouds on the left but also perfectly integrated, together constructing this mysterious and extraordinary Chaos Azure Lotus Pool.

The pool water was diverted; the left cyan lotus area specialized in Spiritual Root improvement and Origin nourishment, while the right gold and jade lotus area focused on Physical Body tempering and reshaping. The layout was clear, and the divine effects were doubled!
