Chapter 200 - 200: Destruction of the Everlasting Sect
At the Illusionary Cloud Sect of the Dachu Empire.
The Illusionary Cloud Sect was an extremely powerful sect in the Dachu Empire.
At its peak, it could even be compared to the Great Mystery Sacred Sect.
However, with the appearance of Su Chen in the Great Mystery Sacred Sect, it became a sacred sect in a single leap, and for a time, it outshone the other forces in the Dachu Empire.
On the other hand, the Illusionary Cloud Sect had shown signs of decline in recent years.
But even so, the Illusionary Cloud Sect was still a formidable power within a radius of ten thousand miles!
The Illusionary Cloud Sect occupied an extremely vast area, situated in a mountain range.
There were 108 main peaks in total!
It was rumored that each main peak was guarded by a Nirvana Realm expert.
Of course, this was only the Illusionary Cloud Sect’s side of the story.
In fact, not many people in the outside world were willing to believe it.
After all, breaking through to the Nirvana Realm was not easy.
Just one Nirvana Tribulation was enough to make countless talented prodigies die in frustration.
It was doubtful whether the Illusionary Cloud Sect truly had so many Nirvana Realm experts, but no one had investigated how much truth there was to this claim.
Today, there were numerous people in front of the mountain gate of the Illusionary Cloud Sect.
There were many ordinary people among them, but there were also many people dressed in luxurious clothes. They crowded the path up the mountain.
These people all had one thing in common.
Behind each of them was a young girl or boy.
Their goal was very clear, and that was to participate in the annual disciple recruitment event of the Illusionary Cloud Sect.
“It’s said that the Illusionary Cloud Sect only recruits 1,500 people this year!”
On the way up the mountain, some people whispered.
Upon hearing this, many felt their hearts sink.
“Uh… How can this be so few? Didn’t the Illusionary Cloud Sect usually start by recruiting 5,000 disciples in the past?”
“Hehe, you don’t know about this, do you? In the past, the main reason why the Illusionary Cloud Sect recruited a large number of disciples was that it lacked talented disciples. They wanted to nurture more prodigies in the sect through the method of raising Gu. After so many years, the number of outer sect disciples in the Illusionary Cloud Sect has increased greatly, but there are very few people who can become inner sect disciples. Of course, none of this is the most important thing. The most important thing is that I heard that a prodigy has appeared in the Illusionary Cloud Sect! That prodigy’s talent is said to be second only to the Great Mystery Holy Son!”
“What? There’s actually such a thing?”
The surrounding people exclaimed in surprise.
The name of the Great Mystery Holy Son, Su Chen, had already spread throughout the Dachu Empire. There were also people from the Great Mystery Holy Land who had secretly helped promote his name, making him known to almost everyone.
All cultivators dreamed of becoming the next Su Chen!
“Haha… A sect like the Illusionary Cloud Sect dreams of producing another figure like the Great Mystery Holy Son?”
“I heard that the Great Mystery Holy Son entered the Dashang Empire alone and killed dozens of Nirvana Realm experts! Even Dashang’s Marquis Champion died at the hands of the Great Mystery Holy Son. Marquis Champion had an Invincible Divine Body! He could be said to be unmatched among those at the same level!”
“That’s right. The Great Mystery Holy Son is not someone any random person can compare to!”
“The Great Mystery Holy Son has the Crimson Flame Divine Body to begin with. Does the Illusionary Cloud Sect really think some random prodigy can be compared to the Great Mystery Holy Son?”
“Your news is a little outdated. A few days ago, news came from the Dashang Empire that the Great Mystery Holy Son reappeared after disappearing for half a year. He even killed a Duke! A Duke of Dashang! They were all at least at the late stage of the Nirvana Realm, and some were even Quasi-Saint Realm experts!”
“I think the Illusionary Cloud Sect is trying to oversell themselves, right?”
“Lower your voice! This is the mountain gate of the Illusionary Cloud Sect, but you’re talking about the Great Mystery Holy Son here. If the people of the Illusionary Cloud Sect hear this, do you still want to enter the mountain gate?”
Upon saying this, the surrounding crowd instantly quieted down.
Just as they stopped talking, a green divine light tore through the air.
As the light faded away, a beautiful woman in a light purple robe appeared.
Her clothes were embroidered with a few cloud patterns, revealing an elegant and otherworldly temperament amidst the luxury.
“Well… This is the uniform of a core disciple of the Great Mystery Sacred Sect!”
Some sharp-eyed people recognized the identity of the woman from her attire.
“Hiss… A core disciple of the Great Mystery Sacred Sect?”
The surrounding crowd gasped when they heard that.
The Great Mystery Sacred Sect had become too famous recently.
Half a year ago, the Great Mystery Holy Lord personally oversaw the battle and destroyed the Everlasting Sect!
With the addition of the Everlasting Sect’s massive resources, the Great Mystery Sacred Sect had undergone a qualitative leap.
It was said that…
Some of the internal rules of the Great Mystery Sacred Sect had changed.
Among them, the most striking one was that core disciples had to reach the peak stage of the God Altar Realm before they could take the test!
This rule was very difficult for the disciples of other sects.
However, it was nothing to the Great Mystery Sacred Sect.
Along with increasing the requirements, the treatment of outer sect disciples, inner sect disciples, and core disciples had also increased severalfold!
With the support of such enormous resources, it was foreseeable that the Great Mystery Sacred Sect would only grow stronger and stronger.
The stronger a sect was, the more resources they would obtain.
This was a virtuous cycle.
From now on, sects that could previously stand on equal footing with the Great Mystery Sacred Sect might be left behind in just a few years.
Many people present dreamed of joining the Great Mystery Sacred Sect.
Unfortunately, they currently were too far away from the Great Mystery Sacred Sect. Ordinary people among them would never be able to step into the territory of the Great Mystery Sacred Sect even in their lifetime!
Now, the appearance of a core disciple of the Great Mystery Sacred Sect made many people excited.
The moment this person appeared, it meant that her strength was at least at the peak stage of the God Altar Realm.
If she was slightly stronger, she would most likely be an expert in the Spirit Sea Realm!
“What does a core disciple of the Great Mystery Sacred Sect want to do in the Illusionary Cloud Sect?”
A question arose in everyone’s hearts.
At this moment, the two outer sect disciples guarding the entrance of the Illusionary Cloud Sect looked at each other and bowed respectfully to the woman.
“May I ask what matter brings Senior Sister from the Great Mystery Sacred Sect to my Illusionary Cloud Sect?”
The Great Mystery Sacred Sect was becoming more and more powerful.
In the territory of the Dachu Empire, no sect dared to go against the Great Mystery Sacred Sect.
The Everlasting Sect was a stark lesson!
They had once targeted the Great Mystery Sacred Sect in every way.
As a result, their cultivation methods had now become a branch of the Great Mystery Sacred Sect’s teachings.
The Illusionary Cloud Sect naturally did not want to repeat the same mistake.
“Tell Ye Fan that Mu Qingxue is here today!”
The beautiful woman said calmly.
As soon as her voice fell, confusion appeared in the eyes of the two outer sect disciples of the Illusionary Cloud Sect.
“Are you looking for Senior Brother Ye?”
Ye Fan’s name might not be famous in the outside world.
But within the Illusionary Cloud Sect, he had already reached an unparalleled position!
After entering the sect for five years, he quickly cultivated from an ordinary person to reaching the God Altar Realm.
Not long ago, he had obtained a great opportunity and successfully entered the Spirit Sea Realm!
Half a month ago, he had reached the middle stage of the Spirit Sea Realm!
In the entire Illusionary Cloud Sect, from the sect leader, elders, to the ordinary disciples, everyone believed that Ye Fan would definitely become a saint in the future!
Even…
There was a small portion of people in the Illusionary Cloud Sect who believed that Ye Fan could be compared to the Great Mystery Holy Son, Su Chen!
In the eyes of many, the only difference between Ye Fan and Su Chen was that one had a divine body and the other didn’t.
If Ye Fan had a divine body, his achievements might not be inferior to Su Chen’s!
