Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World

Chapter 1448: Chapter 671: Sect Development, a Thousand Integration Sovereigns, Two Hundred Thousand Refining Void Experts (Part 2)

A layer of translucent yet immensely thick energy shield completely enveloped the island city.

The shield was not static, but rose and fell like a breath. With each rise and fall, the seven colors would cycle once: golden radiance, wood lushness, water gentleness, fire fierceness, earth solidity, wind speed, and thunder majesty. On the light membrane, patterns densely wove like a spider web yet remained orderly, marking the operation trajectory of the grand array. Sunlight piercing through the shield would refract into a rainbow of colors encircling the island city, appearing afar like a celestial dao crown atop a giant city.

Inside the island, the city climbed with the mountain’s rise, layered like a celestial ladder, leading straight to the ten thousand fathom main peak at the island’s heart.

Atop the main peak, there was no forest, but a Lingxiao Main Temple, with its roof embedded with seven core crystals blazing like the sun, serving as the center of the tier seven grand array. Around the main temple, numerous side halls, altars, plazas, and corridors spread out in the Bagua orientation, roads engraved with guiding runes. In the air, spiritual boats and flying shuttles traveled back and forth, yet they all adhered strictly to rules, not daring to breach the slightest restriction.

The entire island city was majestic to the point of suffocation, mysterious enough to seize one’s heart.

It stood silently between the sky and the sea, with undying runes and an unceasing grand array, resembling an ancient deity forgotten by heaven and earth but still guarding the myriad realms.

”Is this your territory?”

The tier seven flood dragon Jiaochenyuan asked.

It could sense the terrifying aspects of this island.

Even with its own cultivation level, venturing in implied certain death.

To be honest, it had rarely attacked human islands before.

Because it knew human islands were heavily guarded and inhabited by numerous powerful human cultivators.

Rashly attacking these human islands was purely seeking a path to death.

Countless demon beasts, in their recklessness, were killed by human cultivators and turned into corpses for these reasons.

So naturally, it wouldn’t be so foolish.

However, once it truly entered this human island, it realized how terrifying the power contained on the island was—and it was nothing it could rashly intrude upon.

Back in the day, it considered itself clever; otherwise, it wouldn’t have survived to this day.

”Indeed, this is my domain, this island is my creation.”

”One of my properties.”

”There are many similar islands in the Endless Sea Region, this is just a small part of it.”

Tang Zirui said with an air of inevitability.

”How is this possible? This is a tier seven island.”

”At least a tier seven grand array is set up inside, the manpower and resources needed for it are astronomical.”

”Even an Integration Sect would exhaust its resources to construct an island like this.”

”Yet you have many similar islands? Are you kidding me?”

Jiaochenyuan simply couldn’t believe it, it felt this human cultivator before it was utterly talking nonsense.

Mere human Sects, how could they be so wealthy, this was simply too exaggerated.

It couldn’t be blamed, after all.

It truly was ignorant, just staying within this sea region, utterly unaware of the outside world.

So naturally, it didn’t understand how wealthy the Primordial Talisman Sect was.

”Little flood dragon, you’re truly too uninformed.”

”Although indeed you’ve lived for thousands of years, you’re utterly ignorant of worldly affairs.”

”No wonder you daringly advanced to tier seven.”

”Honestly, even tier seven demon beasts, powerful as they are, don’t count for much in our Primordial Talisman Sect.”

”Simply the number of tier seven cultivators in our Primordial Talisman Sect exceeds a thousand.”

”As for Void Refining Cultivators, the number is beyond two hundred thousand, and it’s still growing.”

Tang Zirui said calmly.

This was the result of the Primordial Talisman Sect’s development over five thousand years.

Now this Sect was undeniably dominant, with a thoroughly grown number of high-tier cultivators.

No longer was it entirely reliant on the Lord Sect Master’s support.

Even without the Lord Sect Master here, merely relying on the other high-tier cultivators was enough to support the prestige of the Primordial Talisman Sect, instilling fear in countless cultivators.

”A thousand Integration Great Powers? You’re joking.”

”How could this world possibly host so many Integration Great Powers, how could this be achieved?”

Jiaochenyuan was struck dumb, utterly bewildered.

Because it felt its cultivation level was at least among the top ranks of the Void Realm.

After all, the time of Spiritual Energy Revival in the Void Realm was still very short.

But now, just within the Primordial Talisman Sect, there were already over a thousand Integration Great Powers.

This was truly astonishing.

It was utterly unaware that the external world had grown to such an extent.

”Haha, naturally this is our Primordial Talisman Sect’s capability, the outside world is vast and unchanged.”

”The sea region you inhabit is merely a small part of the Void Realm, barely worth mentioning.”

Tang Zirui chuckled.

Under normal development, naturally, it would be impossible to produce over a thousand Integration Great Powers.

After all, if that were the case, the cultivation efficiency would be exceedingly staggering.

In fact, most of the Integration Great Powers come from the Ten Ancient Major Sects.

Such as the Guiyuan Sect, Blood River Sect, Divine Weapon Sect, Five Elements Sect, Thousand Illusion Sect, etc. Although these ancient sects previously suffered miserable defeats in front of the Primordial Talisman Sect, they remained sinisterly persistent.

Even to compete for the Void Realm’s opportunities and treasures, they continued dispatching Integration Great Powers into the Void Realm relentlessly.

With each battle, these ancient sects’ Integration Great Powers naturally were defeated by the Lord Sect Master.

Then they were enslaved by the Lord Sect Master, becoming puppets for the Sect—one of the Sect’s combat forces.

There were very few who were Primordial Talisman Sect’s native cultivators advanced to be Integration disciples.

Most of the prodigious disciples’ cultivation still remained at the Void Refining level.

After all, from refining void to integration was an enormous bottleneck, not something easily crossed over.

However, this was the Primordial Talisman Sect’s truly top-secret information, naturally not to be known by outside cultivators.

But letting the other party understand the Sect’s foundation and strength, thus intimidating this tier seven flood dragon, was beyond reproach.

”No wonder the Primordial Talisman Sect can oversee the entire Endless Sea Region.”

”If indeed so many tier seven dominators exist, then this is quite normal.”

”And for each tier seven dominator appearing, one was captured.”

”The Primordial Talisman Sect’s power will only grow stronger.”

”The development of this human Sect has become entirely unstoppable, growing like a snowball.”

Jiaochenyuan sincerely sighed in its heart.

It finally understood just how mighty this human Sect named Primordial Talisman Sect was.

Previously, it heard this human Sect was the most dominant force.

But the degree to which it reached, it had no concept of.

It was precisely out of ignorance that it had no fear.

But hearing now, the number of Integration Great Powers alone exceeded a thousand.

What unnerved it more was that the opponent now merely sent one Integration Great Power over, simply deploying one talisman to effortlessly capture it.

If it hadn’t experienced this personally, it wouldn’t believe it.

Because, after all, it was a tier seven dominator, how could it be so weak to this extent.

But faced with this terrifying talisman, it simply had no strength to resist.

”The talisman you used to capture me just now, is it your ability?”

Jiaochenyuan inquired.

”No, it wasn’t my ability, but the Lord Sect Master’s ability.”

”This was an immortal talisman refined by the Lord Sect Master, containing unimaginable power.”

”Needless to say for you, any Integration Great Power facing such an immortal talisman would have no power to resist.”

”This is our Primordial Talisman Sect’s true foundation.”

”From a certain perspective, as long as we control these immortal talismans, no other same-level cultivators are our opponents.”

Tang Zirui remarked sentimentally.

Of course, he knew it was the Thirty-Three Celestial Spirit Talisman.

Even knowing the cultivation methods for these Immortal Realm spirit talismans.

But knowing was one thing, mastering it was beyond him, leaving him in utter bewilderment.

It wasn’t just him.

In the past, the Primordial Talisman Sect was the same, one generation of cultivators after another, at most mastering a few talismans.

Being able to master even one talisman marked immense talent.

Not like now, where comprehending all Thirty-Three Celestial Spirit Talismans seemed utterly surreal.

This made him utterly admire the Lord Sect Master.

Undoubtedly, the Lord Sect Master was the first genius in the history of the Primordial Talisman Sect.

Even the first-generation sect master couldn’t compare.
