Ninth In The World Chapter 332 - The Radiant Fortune Immortal Sect

Following the sunset of the Immortal World, there were still very few people who would appear.

What traveled the fastest, in both the ordinary non-cultivation worlds and the Immortal World, were rumors and not escape techniques. Using an escape technique could only allow one to travel unidirectionally, but rumors spread into multiple directions. The latter could reach every place accessible by humans.

In a short three years, a true Newborn Immortal City appeared in the Immortal World. The news that one could cultivate in this Immortal City just like in the past, before the sunset era had arrived, and one could even complete a Tribulation Transcendence to become a Perfected Immortal, spread across the majority of the Sunset Immortal Protectorate.

Numerous cultivators flocked over to the Starry Sky Immortal City. Some Immortal City Lords even gave up their positions to go there.

The cultivators who went there had all prepared sufficient immortal crystals and Spirit Stones, for they a.s.sumed that every Immortal City in the Sunset Immortal Protectorate would require immortal crystals and Spirit Stones as entrance fees. In truth, that was also what the rumors said. According to the rumors circulating, one could enter the Starry Sky Immortal City if they possessed sufficient immortal crystals and Spirit Stones.

Every cultivator who arrived was extremely excited, for they could already sense the Immortal Spirit Qi at the outskirts of the Starry Sky Immortal City, even though they had yet to enter the city. Some cultivators even underwent the Tribulation Transcendence and broke through to the Perfected Immortal Realm while they were at the outskirts of the city.

The closer one was to the Starry Sky Immortal City, the denser the Immortal Spirit Qi and the more effective the cultivation was. The cultivators felt that all the light from providence in the entire Immortal World was gathered and s.h.i.+ning on the Starry Sky Immortal City before it dispersed slowly from the inside out.

There had to be a top-notch Fortune Gathering Immortal Array in the Starry Sky Immortal City. Otherwise, such an effect would not have been possible. Moreover, a mere Fortune Gathering Immortal Array would be insufficient in creating and gathering such an amount of life-force, which included the presence of water bodies and flouris.h.i.+ng spiritual plants, surrounding the city.

However, they were dumbfounded when they attempted to enter the Starry Sky Immortal City. The issue was not that they had brought insufficient immortal crystals or Spirit Stones. It was that the entrance fee did not include immortal crystals or Spirit Stones. Instead, it was based on a more astringent requirement. First, one had to be able to pa.s.s an examination array. One or two out of ten cultivators would be able to pa.s.s the test at best.

After pa.s.sing the examination, one would owe the Immortal City a large number of contribution points, a debt that could be cleared by searching for materials in the Immortal World or contributing to the city.

None of the cultivators were willing to leave, despite the fact that they could not enter the Starry Sky Immortal City. Almost all the cultivators were gathered outside the city, for they would be able to cultivate so long as they were near the city.

Out of all these cultivators, the ones filled with the most regret were those from the Three-Element Immortal City, as they were well aware of who had founded the Starry Sky Immortal City. They had been given the opportunity to be the first to enter the city in the past. Although some of them now entered by pa.s.sing the examination array, they were not a.s.signed any cave abode and they had to owe a large sum of contribution points.

It was said that the first batch of cultivators who had gone there with City Lord Di had been given cave abodes located near the Sky Bamboo River and 100,000 contribution points.

On the contrary, they owed a sum of contribution points. Fortunately, the City Lord a.s.signed them a new task, which was to construct an auxiliary Immortal City outside the new Immortal City. The people who partic.i.p.ated in construction work would also be able to obtain contribution points.

Nonetheless, this did not mean that it would be easy to enter the auxiliary Immortal City. One would not be examined based on how many people they had killed in the past, yet this auxiliary city would still be governed by the same laws as the Starry Sky Immortal City. Cultivators could utilize their contribution points to rent cave abodes or open commercial buildings in the auxiliary Immortal City. However, no one was allowed to defy those laws.

Any cultivators who wanted to defy the system and attempted to do so by force were all turned into dust without exception.

The light from providence s.h.i.+ning on the Immortal World was oppressed by the Major Five-Element Array, resulting in an increased Immortal Spirit Qi density within the Starry Sky Immortal City and a bigger circ.u.mference of dispensation.

Some cultivators who were unable to enter the Starry Sky Immortal City started to build markets outside the auxiliary Immortal City. The crowd gathering around the Starry Sky Immortal City increased, and so did the presence of life-force, as more light from providence started to gather.

…

The Radiant Fortune Immortal Sect of the Newborn Immortal Protectorate was one of the most respected and most powerful immortal sects in the Immortal World. This was because the Radiant Fortune Immortal Sect was the sect that possessed the deepest understanding of the light from providence s.h.i.+ning on the Immortal World. The Radiant Fortune Mountain, where the Radiant Fortune Immortal Sect was located, was the best location for cultivating in the entire Immortal World.

Some large sects that wished to build their garrison would seek help from the Radiant Fortune Immortal Sect to predict the ideal location for construction. All predictions made by the Radiant Fortune Immortal Sect were accurate and every sect that came forth would head back satisfied.

Before the sunset of the Immortal World, Immortal Emperor Yi Mang, the Radiant Fortune Immortal Sect Master, had gone missing. Nonetheless, the Radiant Fortune Immortal Sect was still extremely useful in the Immortal World.

The Radiant Fortune Immortal Sect was the first to predict that the light from providence s.h.i.+ning on the Immortal World would disperse soon and that cultivators living in the Immortal World would have to leave the world, which would be experiencing the sunset soon. No one knew, however, where to go.

The Heavenly Fortune Immortal Sect’s prediction had caused the entire Immortal World to descend into chaos, while murder and robberies took place everywhere. The b.l.o.o.d.y ma.s.sacre sped up the sunset of the Immortal World.

On the other hand, the Radiant Fortune Immortal Sect remained unscathed. No one attacked the Radiant Fortune Immortal Sect disciples, nor did they dare to.

During the ma.s.sacre happening in the Immortal World, the Radiant Fortune Immortal Sect had once again predicted the formation of the Newborn Immortal Protectorate. Everyone had come to the Newborn Immortal Protectorate under the Radiant Fortune Immortal Sect’s lead, to build the Sky Wall and separate the Newborn Immortal Protectorate and the Sunset Immortal Protectorate.

In the Newborn Immortal Protectorate, the Radiant Fortune Immortal Sect was still the number one sect, even though it had lost its sect master.

The acting sect master of the Radiant Fortune Immortal Sect was Yi Zhen, the personal disciple of Immortal Emperor Yi Mang. Due to the scarce resources in the Immortal World, his cultivation level was stuck at the Immortal King Realm, despite the fact that he was the eldest disciple of the Immortal Emperor.

Immortal Kings had always been the most powerful existences in the pre-sunset Immortal World and the current Newborn Immortal Protectorate.

Immortal Emperors, on the other hand, would rarely show themselves in the Sunset Immortal Protectorate and the Newborn Immortal Protectorate.

According to some rumors, following the sunset of the Immortal World, most Immortal Emperors had failed to survive the degeneration of the Immortal Dao. Few Immortal Supremacies had survived as a result of attempting to prevent this degeneration from happening.

Therefore, Immortal Kings were the apex experts of the Newborn Immortal Protectorate.

At the moment, Yi Zhen was standing on the Radiant Fortune Immortal Sect’s Radiant Fortune Platform. The eye on his forehead was open, emitting a soft black light.

The eye on his forehead closed after looking for several long moments. He had a look of disbelief on his face as he murmured, “How could this be possible? The light from providence s.h.i.+ning on the Newborn Immortal Protectorate is actually flowing out towards the Sunset Immortal Protectorate. This… is impossible.”

This was the top-notch supernormal ability of the Radiant Fortune Immortal Sect, which allowed one to check on the light from providence s.h.i.+ning on the world. It was a supernormal ability that did not belong to the Immortal World. Yi Zhen had only obtained this supernormal ability because he was the eldest personal disciple of Immortal Emperor Yi Mang.

It was because of this supernormal ability that he was able to find the Newborn Immortal Protectorate and also build the Sky Wall to separate the Newborn Immortal Protectorate and the Sunset Immortal Protectorate.

Yi Zhen opened the eye on his forehead after resting for two hours. This time, he saw even more clearly that the light from providence s.h.i.+ning on the Newborn Immortal Protectorate was indeed flowing out towards the Sunset Immortal Protectorate. Unfortunately, his cultivation level was too weak and he had yet to fully master this supernormal ability. Therefore, he was unable to determine the exact direction it was flowing in.

Perhaps it was the vast universe the light from providence was flowing towards, and not the Sunset Immortal Protectorate.

Yi Zhen had used the eye for too long. Hence, a stream of pitch-black blood trickled down from his eye.

Yi Zhen closed the eye once again. He now understood why the ma.s.sacre within the Newborn Immortal Protectorate was starting to happen. It was because the light from providence s.h.i.+ning on the Newborn Immortal Protectorate was flowing out, which meant that there would come a day in the future when the Newborn Immortal Protectorate would suffer the same fate as the Sunset Immortal Protectorate. When that time came, the laws of the Immortal World would disintegrate and the world would collapse thereafter.

Where would the Radiant Fortune Immortal Sect go when the Newborn Immortal Protectorate also started to fall apart?

As he looked in the direction of the Sunset Immortal Protectorate, whose view was obstructed by the Sky Wall, Yi Zhen murmured once again, “Perhaps I could visit the Sunset Immortal Protectorate…”

He did not take the ma.s.sacre happening in the Newborn Immortal Protectorate seriously. He had been the one to incite the ma.s.sacre that had occurred back in the Sunset Immortal Protectorate. This was all for the sake of survival.

The land in the Newborn Immortal Protectorate was smaller than the land of the Sunset Immortal Protectorate. Therefore, not many Immortal World cultivators would be allowed to head over to the new Immortal Protectorate. This was why most of the Immortal World cultivators had to die before entering the Newborn Immortal Protectorate.

….

It had been seven years since the Starry Sky Immortal City had been established.

In these seven years, the auxiliary Immortal City outside the Starry Sky Immortal City had expanded significantly in size. Many cultivators, who had gathered sufficient materials and array formation jade slips to exchange them for contribution points, had taken up residence in the auxiliary Immortal City.

The Immortal Spirit Qi density and the cultivating benefits in the auxiliary Immortal City were inferior to those of the Starry Sky Immortal City. However, one did not need to pa.s.s the examination array there. One’s past actions were taken out of account, and only the amount of contribution points were taken into consideration. Of course, one had to still abide by the laws of the Starry Sky Immortal City.

The cultivators residing outside the auxiliary Immortal City could also sense the meager Immortal Spirit Qi. However, the amount sensed was far inferior to that within the auxiliary Immortal City. Moreover, following the upgrade of the Spirit Gathering Array within the auxiliary Immortal City, the Immortal Spirit Qi outside became even scarcer, so one could barely cultivate.

During these seven years, Di Jiu did not cultivate. Thus, his cultivation level remained at the fourth-stage Perfected Immortal Realm. During the course of these seven years, he had been conducting research on the various Immortal Arrays.

An extremely important way to obtain contribution points and enter the auxiliary Immortal City was through the exchange of array formation jade slips and blacksmithing materials from the Immortal World. Over the past few years, Di Jiu had obtained numerous Immortal Array jade slips. The Sangharama Flame he had borrowed from Yan Xiaosha had also been upgraded to a level-five immortal flame, providing Di Jiu with even greater convenience while researching the Array Dao.

During these seven years, Di Jiu’s array formation skills had reached the standard of peak level-six Immortal Arrays. He was almost able to create level-seven Immortal Arrays now.

It was unfortunate that he was unable to achieve a breakthrough. Di Jiu suspected that this was because the level of the Sangharama Flame was too low. This meant that he had to search for a higher-level flame if he wished to improve his array formation standards.

Di Jiu was really desperate to improve his Array Dao. He knew very well that he would not be able to become a top-notch expert in a very short time, no matter how hard he cultivated.

The Starry Sky Immortal City was currently a coveted item. If he was unable to fend off any top-notch experts who came, all his efforts would go down the drain. Therefore, the Dharma Array of the Starry Sky Immortal City had to be powerful.
