307. Chapter 304: The Triple Layer Star Continent Sect Assembly

Ding Huan had seen the Zhan Shen Hao, which was undoubtedly large.

Yet compared to this giant before him, the Zhan Shen Hao was a speck among specks.

The warship opened, and the divine race cultivators surged inside rapidly.

Ding Huan had given them one hour; after the warship opened, all twenty to thirty thousand divine race cultivators entered within just over half an hour.

Under the threat to their lives, every divine race cultivator unleashed astonishing potential.

San Yan Ku Shen didn't even greet Ding Huan—he immediately took control of the warship and charged forward.

"I'll go watch it," Dan Beishu said, worried San Yan Ku Shen might hide the warship in some corner of the Triple Layer Star Continent and intended to follow and monitor it.

"No need—there's another cosmic vortex exit here."

As Ding Huan spoke, a massive cosmic vortex exit appeared before them.

Previously, this cosmic vortex exit had been sealed by a protective array.

Just now, when San Yan Ku Shen lifted the warship, he opened this cosmic vortex exit.

The warship controlled by San Yan Ku Shen charged toward the cosmic vortex and vanished in an instant.

"A fine treasure," Mu Chengzi muttered, his eyes gleaming with longing—he clearly coveted that giant warship just now.

"Alas… they can leave from here, and someday they can enter from here too," Cen Huan sighed.

"I won't give them the chance to enter. From now on, we have two tasks: first, seal all cosmic vortex exits on the Triple Layer Star Continent; second, set up a planetary protective array for the Triple Layer Star Continent."

Ding Huan said firmly.

Everyone drew a sharp breath—forget how hard it was to seal these cosmic vortex exits; even if sealed, they'd eventually be swept away by the cosmic vortexes over time.

And setting up a protective array for the Triple Layer Star Continent? Was that even possible?

"This seems unlikely," Xun Youshan said doubtfully. "We're so few. Not to mention setting up a protective array for the Triple Layer Star Continent—even circling the entire planet wouldn't be easy."

Ding Huan said:

"Of course a few people can't do this—it requires the collective effort of every cultivator on the Triple Layer Star Continent, and it won't be finished in a day or two."

Mu Chengzi said: "Sealing the cosmic vortexes isn't hard—it's maintaining the seal long-term that's difficult. The divine race's previous seal was merely superficial—it was useless in reality."

"I do have a way to seal the cosmic vortexes," Ding Huan said. "The condition is finding every single cosmic vortex exit."

He truly had a method to seal the cosmic vortexes.

When he had just gained insight into the Great Cosmic Art, Ding Huan had already considered this problem.

As his Great Cosmic Art grew more refined, he found the answer.

His Foundation Establishment was unlike others—he built his foundation on his own Dao.

The stronger his cultivation, the more solid his foundation became.

Plus, his Great Cosmic Art was derived from insights into cosmic vortexes.

Ding Huan had a method to construct a defensive array by infusing its structure with the aura and resonance of cosmic vortexes.

As long as the cosmic vortexes continued to exist, his defensive array would remain active—and the cosmic energy of the vortexes could even serve as its spiritual source.

Of course, the prerequisite was that the materials must be top-tier.

That didn't matter—he had plenty of excellent materials, provided just now by San Yan Ku Shen.

…

Several days later.

Mu Chengzi, Ji Gu, Xun Youshan, Cang Yongqian, Cen Huan, Fei Zhankong, and others took the array cores and array plates Ding Huan had forged to seal all cosmic vortex exits except Zang Jian Mountain.

Ding Huan, meanwhile, convened the Triple Layer Star Continent Sect Assembly in Jiuyuancheng.

All sects and clans on the Triple Layer Star Continent attended.

Not only had Liu Liu Yinzhu, vice sect leader of the Lanxing Sect in the Dao Cultivation Realm, arrived, but also Mo Zheng, Hu Wu Xin, and others had all come to Jiuyuancheng.

Ding Huan, accompanied by a group of powerful cultivators, had done something monumental in the Ascension Realm's Jiuyuancheng—driving out the divine race.

Any cultivator on the Triple Layer Star Continent had heard of this great event.

The first matter of the Triple Layer Star Continent Sect Assembly in Jiuyuancheng was to rename Jiuyuancheng as Sanzhong Dao City.

This meant restoring Jiuyuancheng's original name—it had been called Sanzhong Dao City before the Jiuyu invasion of the Triple Layer Star Continent.

The second matter was establishing the cultivation laws of the Triple Layer Star Continent.

Establishing laws on a cultivation planet was likely unprecedented—the only such laws on any cultivation planet.

The third matter was establishing the Triple Layer Star Continent's Mission Hall, divided into Sect Contribution Points and Personal Contribution Points.

Contribution points could be exchanged for any cultivation resources, and in the future, even for entry slots into secret realms.

The Triple Layer Star Continent already had many secret realms; after driving out the divine race, Ding Huan turned the divine race's own base into the largest secret realm on the entire continent.

Entry into this secret realm would require contribution points.

The fourth matter was summoning all array masters to prepare for setting up the planetary protective array of the Triple Layer Star Continent.

Materials were provided by the divine race—almost all of which Ding Huan had seized. Some materials were contributed by the Geda Sects.

This contribution not only raised a sect's rank but also earned contribution points.

The fifth matter was opening direct passage between the Ascension Realm and the Dao Cultivation Realm—no restrictions remained, and no Ascension Platform was needed to travel between the two realms.

…

After the Sect Assembly in Sanzhong Dao City, the entire Dao Cultivation Realm and Ascension Realm underwent a complete transformation.

Although Ding Huan presided over this assembly, he had neither the time nor the energy to serve as the first mayor of Sanzhong Dao City.

The first mayor was appointed as Geng Qianxing.

What puzzled Ding Huan was that everything on the Triple Layer Star Continent had settled into order.

The Jiuyu people had not yet reached the Triple Layer Star Continent.

The people of Jiuyuan must have long received word that their people were killed on the Third Layer of Starfall Continent.

Since they know the news, why haven't they come to Starfall Continent's Third Layer to seek revenge? This puzzled Ding Huan.

Besides, they must have laid plans on the Third Layer of Starfall Continent—could they really just ignore it?

Ding Huan tried calculating several times what Jiuyuan had arranged in the Third Dao City, but could not uncover anything; he also questioned Jiuyuan's cultivators, yet learned nothing of value.

Logically, this matter should end here—just guard against Jiuyuan Star's people returning to the Third Layer of Starfall Continent.

But Ding Huan always felt something strange lay hidden within this.

Ding Huan summoned Liu Liu Yinzhu, who was preparing to return to her sect.

"Zongzhu, are you planning to return to the sect with me?" Liu Liu Yinzhu assumed Ding Huan would accompany her.

To be honest, Liu Liu Yinzhu had never imagined she could become the vice-zongzhu of the First Sect on the Third Layer of Starfall Continent.

A few years ago, her Purple Cloud Valley trembled before other sects; now, others tremble before her.

Although Lansheng Sect resides in the Dao Cultivation World, now both the Dao Cultivation World and the Ascension Realm tacitly acknowledge Lansheng Sect as the First Sect.

This is not merely due to Ding Huan's status on the Third Layer of Starfall Continent, but more importantly, Lansheng Sect's disciples are invincible within their own realm.

Lansheng Sect's Little Universe Art is universally recognized as the most powerful technique on the entire Third Layer of Starfall Continent.

Thus, joining Lansheng Sect is now the dream of Dao Cultivation World cultivators—and also of Ascension Realm cultivators.

Ding Huan removed all conditions between the Dao Cultivation World and the Ascension Realm; any Dao Cultivation World cultivator may freely enter the Ascension Realm, which also drew some geniuses from the Ascension Realm into the Dao Cultivation World, seeking to join Lansheng Sect.

"I must remain here for some matters. You, along with Liu Zongzhu, will return to Lansheng Sect to cultivate," Ding Huan called over Lou Buzhi.

Here, he decided to use the Great Calculation Art once more to calculate what Jiuyuan truly intended on the Third Layer of Starfall Continent.

If he still could not uncover it this time, he would strive to establish the grand array on the Third Layer of Starfall Continent.

"Huan-ge, I've fallen far behind you. Thinking back to the past… sigh…" Lou Buzhi sighed deeply.

Back then, both he and Ku Qi were accepted by sects—yet Ding Huan was rejected by every single one.

Now, Huan-ge stands at a height they can never reach.

"Bu Zhi, once you reach Lansheng Sect, switch to the Little Universe Art. I believe you'll soon reach Liu Zongzhu's current realm."

Ding Huan comforted Lou Buzhi, then turned to Liu Liu Yinzhu:

"Liu Zongzhu, who is currently in charge of recruiting disciples for the sect?"

Liu Liu Yinzhu froze, puzzled why Ding Huan suddenly asked this—but immediately reacted and answered quickly:

"My disciple Mo Huanping has assigned someone, but I don't know who exactly."

Ding Huan sighed and said:

"The most vital thing for a sect is the source of its disciples. If we recruit nothing but disreputable cultivators into Lansheng Sect, how will we differ from Shuanghun Sect in the future?

And that's still secondary—what matters more is that this would sever Lansheng Sect's lineage."

In his past life, Ding Huan was a commoner; though by chance he reached the starry heavens and encountered gene cultivation,

his ability to read people's expressions and intentions far surpassed ordinary people. He did not ask Lou Buzhi whether he had visited Lansheng Sect—he knew Lou Buzhi had gone there and been turned away.

Liu Liu Yinzhu could not possibly know this, so the error must lie in the disciple recruitment process.

Liu Liu Yinzhu fell silent, instantly understanding, and hurriedly said: "This is my fault. When I return, I will thoroughly investigate."

Ding Huan said: "To destroy the source of my sect's disciples is no different from destroying the Dao foundation of my sect. I recall there is a rule in our sect's laws—return and enforce it according to the law."

"Yes." Liu Liu Yinzhu's back broke into cold sweat.

Though Ding Huan was usually easygoing, she knew full well how severe the consequences were if she violated his taboos.

Lansheng Sect is the foundation of Ding Huan's Dao lineage; if someone seeks to destroy this lineage, how could Ding Huan not rage?

The calmer Ding Huan appeared, the greater his inner fury.
