Chapter 245: Twelve Systems, the Battle for Order
“Woo woo woo woo!”
A wild gust of wind swept through the sky, and when it landed in front of everyone, it was Fenggong Yuan returning.
After a fierce battle, Fenggong Yuan showed little damage, just a minor drop in his aura, indicating a substantial expenditure of magical power.
“Fenggong’s Grand Law, it seems the battle went well,” Yun Ye smiled.
“Although I don’t know where these fools came from, they were far from being able to hurt me! Fellow Daoist Xiang Ying, please don’t worry. I will report this matter to the Spirit Sect and conduct a thorough investigation. No matter who it is, they will have to pay a price!” Fenggong Yuan said coldly. After saying this, he revealed a proud expression. “Alright, we are now at the Spirit Sect, so there’s no need to dwell on this troublesome matter.”
“Our Cloud Heavenly Spirit Sect is the largest sect in the Great Wilderness Spirit Marsh and the ruler of Huangzhou. Only the most exceptional members of noble families can join the Cloud Heavenly Spirit Sect, often as heirs! Because of this, the Spirit Sect is filled with countless talents, flourishing with diversity, boasting a total of twelve systems.”
“My Qushuang lineage ranks high among the twelve systems, with seven major veins and twenty-seven branches, possessing overwhelming power that ordinary systems cannot compare with. Fellow Daoist Xiang Ying, joining the Qushuang lineage will undoubtedly be the wisest choice of your life, without exception.”
“Let’s go, enter the Spirit Sect!”
Fenggong Yuan swept the group up and crossed vast mountains, officially entering the region of the Cloud Heavenly Spirit Sect.
The Cloud Heavenly Spirit Sect was indeed immensely large. Although they had seen it from a distance, actually entering took quite some time; if left to find their way themselves, Yun Ye and his group would have surely lived out the saying about a horse struggling to reach a distant mountain.
Entering the Spirit Sect required identity verification, but Yun Ye and the others had already been recorded, so they proceeded directly inside.
“Where are we headed first?” Yun Ye asked.
“Naturally, we are going to the Qushuang Dao Palace. Elder Qushuang has decided to accept you as a disciple, so we’ll meet Elder Qushuang first before making any other choices. Before meeting Elder Qushuang, let me explain the ‘system’ of the Cloud Heavenly Spirit Sect; even as Elder Qushuang’s disciple, you will still need to start step by step,” Fenggong Yuan explained.
“Please, go ahead,” Yun Ye nodded, listening attentively.
“The Cloud Heavenly Spirit Sect is a massive cultivator sect centered around the twelve systems, continuously expanding. Its purpose, like all sects, is to sweep the world clean and achieve ascension.”
“The order is the foundation of the Cloud Heavenly Spirit Sect’s existence. The Spirit Sect follows the belief that everything has its order: there is a distinction between those who come first and those who come later, a difference between merit and sin. This distinction of order determines precedence and ultimately decides who becomes a True Immortal.”
“It can be said that the order confirms one’s qualifications; no one can deny its legitimacy, and no one can defy its correctness. Our Cloud Heavenly Spirit Sect is a perfect place for competition and development built on order.”
Fenggong Yuan spoke with absolute conviction.
The principle of order is similar to healthy competition; this ideology, in the broader context of the Luo Dynasty, truly resembles paradise, even if it only applies to ruling families.
“The twelve systems form the core of the entire Cloud Heavenly Spirit Sect. Each system has a main path, with a distinction of priority that can change at any time. The closer a system is to the front, the greater the rights it holds.”
“If one can advance to the first system, that becomes the ruling system of the Cloud Heavenly Spirit Sect, making it easier for the system master to become the sect leader.”
“Beneath the twelve systems are the affiliated main veins; each main vein occupies a spirit vein, while the head of the main vein is its leader. Below the main veins are the branches, with each branch occupying a Spirit Mountain, and the head of the branch is the summit master.”
“These are the key figures in our Spirit Sect, the core higher level. Besides this, there are four tiers of status: disciples, true disciples, guardians, and elders.”
“Upon entering the Spirit Sect, everyone is an ordinary disciple; only those who stand out among ordinary disciples and become true disciples have the chance to progress further and compete for summit master.”
“As for guardians and elders, that is another matter. Only those with exceptional cultivation who do not become summit masters can be appointed as guardians, enjoying privileges far exceeding those of ordinary true disciples and even summit masters.”
“To become an elder, one must contribute greatly to the Spirit Sect, holding a status equivalent to that of a system master. Elder Qushuang serves as both a system master and an elder; only two individuals in the entire Spirit Sect can be compared to her!”
“You are incredibly lucky to be able to join the Qushuang Family! With Elder Qushuang teaching you, even if you’re not talented, you can surely surpass the True Disciples and become a Summit Master. Besides, your innate talent is already exceptional!”
Fenggong Yuan led everyone to a heavenly area.
Light beams pierced through the heavens and the earth.
This was a gathering of countless spirit energies.
Upon closer inspection, Yun Ye and the others discovered that these light beams were actually composed of transparent, crystal-like spirit energies, and their expanse was as large as a city. Stepping inside felt like entering an ethereal paradise.
“This is solidified spirit energy?”
Yun Ye realized that this spirit energy could actually be touched and even walked upon. He was utterly astonished; how much spirit energy had been used to create this?
This was even more extravagant than the spirit energy pool at the Gate of Heaven of the Crescent Moon; that was only in liquid form, while here it was directly solidified!
This kind of solidification was different from the process of infusing spirit energy into Spirit Stones; it was purely made of spirit energy, with the internal spirit energy measured in tens of thousands times that of a Spirit Stone.
To form such a massive pillar of spirit energy, stretching from heaven to earth, was an astronomical consumption of Spirit Stones.
With Yun Ye’s limited experience, even when seeing it in person, he still found it hard to comprehend the vastness of this project…
And there were actually twelve such pillars of spirit energy!
When Fenggong Yuan first mentioned that the Cloud Heavenly Spirit Sect occupied half of a super spirit vein, Yun Ye hadn’t really grasped the significance.
But the moment he stepped onto the spirit energy pillar, everything clicked.
This was the weight of the words! This super spirit vein was genuinely super and had surpassed the limits of imagination!
“The Great Wilderness Spirit Marsh is the center of all Huangzhou. For countless years, countless dynasties have established their rule here, prospered, and then fallen. Perhaps they have been buried, but their traces remain on this land.”
“Because anyone who takes over this land will inevitably use the Spirit Vein Regulation Technique across generations for optimization—ten thousand years? A hundred thousand years? No one knows how long it has been. At least when the Spirit Sect was established, this place had already birthed a super spirit vein.”
“Only by mastering a super spirit vein could a spirit sect like the Cloud Heavenly Spirit Sect, which seeks the path of immortality, come into existence. And it is only with this that there are resources to support the competition among the Twelve Systems; this is the foundation of our Cloud Heavenly Spirit Sect!”
Fenggong Yuan laughed heartily as he descended into a palace.
This palace stood upon the spirit clouds, yet it could not be hidden by them. Its presence was strikingly strong.
“Qushuang Heaven!”
Three large characters, swirling like dragons and dancing like phoenixes, were written above. An overwhelming pressure surged upon gaze.
Fenggong Yuan immediately prostrated himself and paid great respects.
He proclaimed loudly, “Elder Qushuang, I have brought Xiang Ying here!”
