BXBX NOVEL Chapter 115
Chapter 115
The Ascension Ceremony was still in full swing, growing livelier by the minute. Many cultivators aspiring to join the seven major immortal sects were showcasing their abilities, with some already participating in the competition stage.
This Ascension Ceremony also allowed the selection of outstanding independent cultivators or those from smaller immortal families and sects to join the seven major immortal sects each year. Opportunities abounded in the vast Northern Territory, and there were always independent cultivators. Although their spiritual roots might be average, they often possessed opportunities for rapid advancement. Those who worked diligently also had a chance to excel.
Regarding the Immortal Sect’s ancient sect ruins, the entrance would open six months from now. At that time, all seven major immortal sects would dispatch many cultivators to explore.
“This time, we will revise the resource allocation within the ancient sect ruins,” a mid-Nascent Soul stage cultivator from the Bi Xia Sect proposed. “Each sect is guaranteed at least half a share, while the Bi Xia Sect is guaranteed one and a half shares. The rest will be distributed based on each sect’s contributions.”
“Flying Immortal Sect has two Nascent Soul stage cultivators but lacks those in the middle or later stages. They will receive a guaranteed six percent. How does everyone feel about that?” The proposed resource allocation was six percent.
This allocation plan was based on the strength of each sect. The weakest was the Wind Thunder Sect, with a guaranteed five percent, and they had two early Nascent Soul stages, making it six percent. If a sect had three Nascent Soul stages or cultivators in the middle or later stages of Nascent Soul, they would receive even more. The Bi Xia Sect, as the most powerful, had a guaranteed one-and-a-half share, equaling 15%.
In the end, with the inclusion of the Flying Immortal Sect, eight immortal sects were guaranteed a total of 58%. The remaining 37% would be earned based on each sect’s contributions, and Li Su had no objections.
“Leader Xiang, Leader Jiang, I’ve been entrusted by someone to return two items to you,” Li Su said after settling the matter, addressing the leaders of the Falling Clouds Sect and the Purple Extreme Sect.
The two sect leaders looked at Li Su, and he then released the two sets of bones he had stored in the jade coffin.
“Friend Li, who are they?” asked the leader of the Falling Clouds Sect.
“These are the remains of Elder Yan Yi and Elder Liu Chuan,” Li Su replied, explaining the condition of the two sets of bones but withholding some details. He didn’t mention the “Holy Command” and would claim not to know in case of inquiries. The Holy Command had been taken from a dark cultivator, and while Li Su had rightfully claimed it after defeating it, he didn’t want to complicate matters unnecessarily. He simply stated that he had found their remains underground and omitted mention of the Great Yan Sword Formation. Despite his increased strength, the assistance he had received from the Great Yan Sword Formation back then had been significant, so Li Su still showed respect to these two deceased cultivators by addressing them as “Elders.”
“Yan Yi, Liu Chuan, it’s them!”
“After they disappeared, our sect searched for many years without any news. We never expected that they had really…”
Both sect leaders were visibly moved. This mid-Golden Core stage formation master was respected in both sects and had a close relationship with these leaders. These two leaders appeared unaware that Yan Yi and Liu Chuan had been killed due to the Holy Command.
Both sect leaders looked at the two sets of bones with melancholy, while Li Su breathed a sigh of relief. His task was now complete. After the two sect leaders put away the remains, Li Su brought up the matter of medicinal herbs. Although Bi Luo had been willing to help, she had tried to recruit Li Su into the Bi Xia Sect at that time.
“Elder Li,” she began, “concerning the medicinal herbs, Bi Luo is still willing to assist you,” she offered.
As Li Su started speaking, Bi Luo said, “However, if the Bi Xia Sect lacks the necessary medicinal herbs, please allow Elder Dan Chen to support you, Elder Li.”
Bi Luo then turned her attention to an old figure, the leader of the Danxin Sect. “That’s certainly not a problem,” the Danxin Sect leader readily agreed.
“Elder Li, the Ascension Ceremony will continue for another ten days. How about I escort you to the Bi Xia Sect?” Bi Luo suggested.
Li Su accepted the idea, so they embarked on a cloud boat early the following morning. This time, the sect leaders didn’t accompany them. Li Su asked them to remain behind and manage the matters related to joining the Immortal Alliance. He had already charted a new course for the Flying Immortal Sect and didn’t intend to get overly involved in other affairs. This approach was similar to his stance in the Wishing Immortal Corner.
The sect leader’s aunt seemed competent in handling day-to-day tasks, allowing the sect leader to concentrate on cultivation. Li Su didn’t need to be concerned about the rest. Of course, he didn’t mind taking action when significant issues arose. Li Su could now concentrate on dealing with the Celestial Demon Seal of the Moon’s Saintess and continued his self-improvement with the help of the system. While Nascent Soul appeared formidable to others, Li Su regarded it as a new starting point, with his ultimate goal still distant.
