Chapter 177: Preparing to Open the Peak, the Lan Family Relocates

Soon after.

The magnificent Azure Cloud Hall.

Mu Shuixian and Luo Chen both walked in.

Behind them followed Shi Hao's three personal disciples and the five inner-gate heavenly-chosen disciples.

As soon as they entered the hall, they saw five figures standing ahead.

"Huh? Who are these five people?"

"Not seeing through at all! Could they all be high-ranking emperors?" Mu Shuixian's beautiful eyes flickered—when did the sect gain so many high-ranking emperors!

Although the sect has an immortal guarding it, according to her knowledge, the only high-ranking emperors are the Azure Phoenix Peak Master Mingyue and the old ancestor.

Could it be that another sect senior has returned?

No longer pondering, Mu Shuixian took the lead, clasped her hands, and said, "Greetings, Sect Master."

"Greetings, Master, Sect Master."

Luo Chen and the eight disciples behind her spoke in unison.

Hearing this, Feng Qingyang on the main seat nodded satisfactorily, and his dignified voice rang out.

"Well, you performed well in this Heaven-Chosen Grand Assembly; our sect has rich rewards."

Reward merit, punish fault.

This is an unchanging rule among all factions in Huangwu.

His three personal disciples and the inner gate's five heavenly-chosen, whom he sent out, won first place at this Heaven-Chosen Grand Assembly, bringing fame to the Azure Cloud disciples, doing well.

Thus Feng Qingyang waved his hand: "Each of the two elders will be granted the opportunity to choose an immortal method, 10,000 contribution points, and 100,000 top-grade spirit stones."

"You eight disciples also each receive the opportunity to choose an immortal method, 10,000 contribution points; the five inner-gate heavenly-chosen are exceptionally promoted to core disciples, enjoying core disciple treatment."

Hearing this, Elder Mu Shuixian, Elder Luo Chen, and the eight disciples all had their eyes light up.

"Thank you, Master and Sect Master, for the reward."

Especially the five inner-gate heavenly-chosen were delighted.

Exceptionally promoted to core disciples, enjoying core disciple treatment.

"Sect Master truly is a good Sect Master! Where can one find such a Sect Master?"

No exploitation, no oppression.

Merit rewarded, fault punished.

Wholeheartedly for the Azure Cloud, sleeves clean as wind!

At that moment, in the Azure Cloud Sect's Pill Refining Hall.

Dan Qing circulated his own cinnabar fire, continuously refining pills.

One furnace after another, he refined frenziedly!

Suddenly he paused for a moment, but his hand movements, having become muscle memory, did not stop.

Soon after, he quickly regained his composure and continued refining.

"Damn! This old man actually got distracted while refining pills—truly useless!"

One must focus on serving the sect.

Working desperately for the sect brings rewards!

The sect's rebuilt body for this old man is quite good.

After adapting a bit longer, I can set off for the Central Region; then I'll dig out… invite those old friends from the Pill Sect over.

Meanwhile, in the Azure Cloud Hall.

"Well, core disciples are not the pinnacle; you few continue to strive in cultivation, aiming to become my Azure Cloud sequence disciples as soon as possible."

"These five are the sect's sequence elders."

When Feng Qingyang's words fell, they all felt a jolt in their hearts: "Sequence elders! So these five seniors are actually the sect's sequence elders."

In order to become part of the sect's sequence, they gave it their all!

Qin Han and the five disciples who had just been promoted to core disciples secretly made up their minds.

Although this grand assembly delayed much time, the progress and gains were also huge.

So next, we'll go to the Spacetime Tower to cultivate frenziedly for a few days.

"Right, because of the assembly, the Immortal Peak's recruitment was delayed; it will open in three days, so get ready."

"Alright, you may all go down."

After Feng Qingyang had arranged everything, he gave an order.

After all the elders and disciples left, Feng Qingyang checked the system interface.

The sect's value still lacked ten thousand to break past one hundred thousand and rise to a third-rank sect.

The prestige value also increased considerably; after that previous battle, having dominated Huangwu, the prestige value had soared to five million.

However, he does not plan to rush to redeem an emperor now; first, the sect currently lacks none; second, the limit of one exchange per month is too troublesome.

It would be better to wait until the sect reaches third-rank, then after the prestige value store updates, redeem a stronger cultivator.

All major powers: Do you want to see what you're saying? One emperor per month is troublesome! I ***

"After reaching third-rank sect, the prestige value should probably list the immortal realm," Feng Qingyang muttered.

The next day.

The Chaotic Flow Star Region, Borderland City.

Today, the number of cultivators in Borderland City has noticeably increased; they are all from factions in Huangwu unwilling to submit to the Azure Cloud, who have migrated en masse.

Many of these forces are major powers from the Thirteen Provinces of the Central Region; after all, minor powers would simply submit, serving an immortal sect—what's the big deal?

Anyway, even without the Azure Cloud, there are Blue Cloud, Red Cloud, etc., dominating Huangwu; minor powers just need to have the awareness of minor powers.

As for the many top powers that didn't flee, do you think they're stupid?

That's because they've already thought further ahead; even if they relocate to the Turbulent Star Region, could they escape the Azure Cloud?

Brother, you also just fled from Desolate Martial... and moved to Boundary City?

Yeah, Brother, you too?

I can't stay in Desolate Martial anymore; if you don't submit to Azure Cloud, you'll die. If I can't afford to provoke them, can I still hide?

Boundary City was especially lively; from time to time, several batches of familiar faces but with powerful auras of cultivators entered Boundary City.

Make way, make way.

At that moment, a large group of guards entered Boundary City, domineeringly driving away the cultivators ahead.

Which power is this? They dare to be so arrogant even in Boundary City?

The cultivators nearby muttered in surprise.

I guess it's another major power from the Central Region; look, they're even pulling their cart with a Saint Realm demonic beast! Can't afford to provoke them, can't afford to provoke them.

Behind that group of guards, a demonic beast with thick fur, sharp mouth and fangs, emanating a Saint Realm aura, pulled a luxurious carriage steadily over.

The carriage was made of high-grade wood, engraved with formations all over, and inlaid with countless top-grade spirit stones that sparkled.

Inside the carriage, a clear, melodious voice rang out.

Father, even the Divine Nation has submitted to Azure Cloud; why doesn't our Blue Clan submit as well?

Do you think coming to Boundary City lets you escape Azure Cloud?

I estimate it won't be long before the Immortal Sect sweeps across the Turbulent Star Region.

Upon hearing that, the tall middle-aged man beside her responded, "Yun'er, the Dustless Imperial Sect has been completely wiped out, that Step Shocking Cloud is dead, and you are now the rightful top genius on the Desolate Martial Genius Ranking."

"It's me, the transcendent power Blue Clan, capable of shaking half the Divine Nation's realm; as your father, you are even the top genius of Desolate Martial."

"How can our Blue Clan remain subordinate forever?"

The middle-aged man snorted coldly, releasing endless pressure; his every gesture bore the air of one long in high office, oppressive and overwhelming.

"But, Father..."

"No 'buts'; Father knows what you worry about, Yun'er, but Father has it figured out."

"That day, the Chief Elder of the Floating Life Pavilion came in person to discuss matters with Father, telling him that if the Blue Clan refuses to submit to Azure Cloud, they should come to Boundary City to find him."

Having said that, he lifted the curtain beside the carriage, gazed outward toward Boundary City, and murmured, "That Floating Life Pavilion is not simple."
