Chapter 1372: The Appointment
Yu Wuxing saw that the new Outer Sect disciples had all arrived and said in a deep voice, "Now that you have become people of our Feather Spirit Sect, no matter what background you had before, since you have come to Feather Spirit Sect, you belong to this sect."
"No matter who it is, if anyone does anything to harm Feather Spirit Sect, including its reputation, we will not forgive easily! Even if you flee to the ends of the earth, we will not let you go."
"Of course, our Feather Spirit Sect disciples are also sheltered by the sect. Whoever dares to harm our disciples will be called to account even if they escape to the ends of the earth."
"Even if it is our disciple’s fault, outsiders have no right to harm them wantonly, otherwise the sect will certainly hold them accountable!"
While speaking, Yu Wuxing slowly released an aura of the late stage of Divinity Transformation, making the air in the entire grand hall seem to solidify.
For a moment, everyone felt oppressed by an invisible force, unable to move their bodies, and even had difficulty breathing.
Fortunately, as his words came to an end, the mountain-like heavy aura disappeared, as if it had never appeared.
However, the cold sweat on everyone’s bodies proved that everything had indeed happened.
Except for Yang Yan, who was already aware of Yu Wuxing’s power, the rest of the people looked at him in shock, not daring to make a sound.
Yu Wuxing glanced at everyone, pausing for a moment on Yang Yan, before continuing:
"Our Feather Spirit Sect was separated from the Thousand Feather Sect’s Pill Hall, but our ancestors have severed all ties with the Thousand Feather Sect."
"Now the Thousand Feather Sect has collapsed completely, leaderless, with internal remnants fighting among themselves and other hostile forces besieging them, basically declaring its fall."
"Feather Spirit Sect does not concern itself with the roles you played in this matter. As long as you do not harm the Feather Spirit Sect, we will train you well, allowing you to become dominant figures."
Yang Yan maintained a calm appearance, but he couldn’t help but be startled inside.
He hadn’t expected that in the midst of the sea shrouded in mist, the Feather Spirit Sect would still be so well-informed about external affairs.
Yang Yan even speculated that these words, seemingly addressed to everyone, were actually intended to reassure him, demonstrating the Feather Spirit Sect’s stance.
Once he finished giving instructions, Yu Wuxing called a disciple to lead everyone to select their cave abodes and receive the items needed for cultivation.
Outside Feather Spirit Sect, an old man sat cross-legged in the sky above a wide ocean.
The void around him continuously fractured but was instantly erased by overwhelming spiritual power.
The waves below churned violently, as if boiling, indicating the terror of the situation.
The old man suddenly opened his eyes, and a beam of light, seemingly tangible, pierced through the void.
Rumble——
Space trembled violently, and the void suddenly collapsed.
The old man glared in the direction of Feather Spirit Sect, a chilling voice emanating: "Yang Yan, you destroyed my son’s body, robbed him of his opportunity, this hatred is irreconcilable!"
"If you remain hiding in Feather Spirit Sect, consider yourself lucky. If you dare step out of Feather Spirit Sect, hmph! I will grind your bones to dust, destroy your form and spirit."
With that, he closed his eyes and said no more, quickly returning everything around him to calm.
While choosing a cave abode, Yang Yan felt an overwhelming chill, as if being watched by a peerless predator.
Yang Yan couldn’t help but let out a bitter smile.
When you defeat the young, the old come. It’s indeed troublesome to have a background.
Three days passed in a flash.
Aside from spending at least two or three hours selecting a cave abode on the first day, Yang Yan didn’t dare delay for a moment the rest of the time.
Whether it was out of envy or jealousy, Yang Yan and Jian Mingyin chose two cave abodes close to each other.
This was because their performance was excellent, and even though the supervisor looked impartial, he promptly complied when the two made their requests.
This scene left other disciples gnashing their teeth.
But there was nothing they could do about it.
Although the supervisor was merely a steward, he possessed Nascent Soul peak strength, and with the authority granted by the sect, the newly entered Outer Sect disciples naturally did not dare to act rashly.
Some who were resourceful were trying to curry favor with him to secure better positions.
Everyone could sense that the closer these cave abodes were to the Alchemy Pavilion of the sect, the purer and more concentrated the spiritual energy emanating from underground.
But Yang Yan and Jian Mingyin didn’t deliberately occupy the best spots; those with truly strong power didn’t waste words. Even if others had complaints, they didn’t dare speak out.
Every day, aside from discussing the Alchemy Dao with Jian Mingyin, Yang Yan focused on refining the celestial power within him.
With Jian Mingyin’s help, Yang Yan had a large supply of pills that could greatly boost spiritual power in a short time.
Due to his possession of the Flawless Divine Body, he could almost ignore the side effects of the medicinal power burning within him, which consequently sped up his consumption of celestial power.
Unfortunately, another mysterious force inside him still remained a puzzle.
Though it wasn’t causing trouble at the moment, having a time bomb inside him always made him uneasy.
He once intended to use Wish Power to experiment, but after just one attempt, he gave up.
The celestial power ignited by spiritual power actively attacked this mysterious force, but as a result, the celestial power absorbed a large amount of it and began to increase rapidly.
Fortunately, Yang Yan was quick to react, immediately releasing Wish Power to isolate the two, stopping the celestial power from continuing to grow.
But because of this, he dared not casually take any more risks.
That day, Yang Yan finished his meditation, suddenly opened his eyes, and looked towards the entrance of the cave, muttering to himself:
"If it’s a blessing, it won’t be a disaster; if it’s a disaster, it can’t be avoided! Whatever it is, I’ll face it."
Having said that, Yang Yan ascended into the air and headed towards Spirit Bamboo Peak.
A moment later, Yang Yan arrived at the peak of Spirit Bamboo Peak.
At that time, aside from a few spiritual bamboo trees full of Spiritual Qi, there was nothing else on the peak, adding to the sense of solitude in the midst of the swirling celestial mist.
However, he quickly noticed that the Spiritual Qi here was concentrated and undispersed, centered within a ten-meter radius around the Spirit Bamboo.
It was indeed a great place for peaceful cultivation!
It was far superior to their cave abodes.
Yang Yan, seeing that no one else was present, decided to meditate on a rock near the Spirit Bamboo, frantically absorbing the concentrated and undispersed spiritual power and integrating it all into his body to consume the remaining celestial power.
Unbeknownst to Yang Yan, Ling Chongzi was in the void above Spirit Bamboo Peak, silently observing his every move.
Ling Chongzi continued to observe, becoming increasingly astonished, finally revealing an expression of excitement.
"I didn’t expect this youngster to possess the rare Flawless Divine Body, and he’s already activated eighty percent of its bloodline!"
As he spoke, his brows suddenly furrowed, and he shook his head as he listened: "What a pity! Heaven is envious of talents; smooth sailing is always difficult!"
