"Yi Jie, although I'm from the Blue Cloud Sect of the North Island, I've been in the secular world for so many years. I don't want to meddle in other people's business anymore. Now that I've revealed my identity to you, I have to ask about the current situation of the Archaic Alliance. Tell me the general situation." Lin Yi seized the opportunity to ask.
"Yes." Xin Yijie was not surprised. He thought that since Lin Yi was the Ancestral Master of the Blue Cloud Sect of the North Island, he should go back to the Blue Cloud Sect to have a look after his identity was revealed. Of course, he had to learn more about the Archaic Alliance. He asked, "What do you want to know?"
"Just tell me about the current power structure of the Archaic Alliance." Lin Yi said faintly. This was the most basic and important information. Only by understanding it in detail could he have a clear idea of the real strength of the Archaic Alliance. Knowing oneself and knowing the enemy would provide a reference for future countermeasures.
"Alright. All the forces in the Primordial Underworld are divided into two types, the sects and the clans. Among all the sects and clans, the top four sects and clans are followed by the top ten sects and clans, followed by some ordinary cultivation sects and clans," Xin Yijie explained.
"Oh? How do you differentiate the four major sects and families, the ten small sects and families, and ordinary sects and families? "Lin Yi asked carefully.
"Of course it's based on the strength of each sect and family. In addition to the basic number of disciples and strength, the most important criterion is the number of top masters in each sect and family. To put it bluntly, it's actually the number of Nascent Soul Realm Old Monsters." Xin Yijie continued.
"Tell me more." This was the question that Lin Yi was most concerned about. It seemed that the most powerful people in the Archaic Alliance were in the Nascent Soul Realm. However, he had to hear more about the exact number.
"Each of the four most powerful sects and families has at least three Old Monsters in the Nascent Soul Realm, while the next ten small sects and families have more or less one or two Old Monsters in the Nascent Soul Realm. Just like our Blue Cloud Sect in the north island, we have one Old Monster in the Nascent Soul Realm, who is the Grand Supreme Elder who is currently in closed-door training. That's why we can be one of the ten small sects and families. If we don't have Old Monsters in the Nascent Soul Realm, we can only be ordinary sects and families," Xin Yijie said.
Lin Yi couldn't help but feel shocked. Since the disciples of the Archaic Alliance who came to the secular world were only at the Foundation Establishment Stage, and even Xin Yijie, who was responsible for leading the team, was only at the Early-stage of Gold Core, he thought that even if there were Nascent Soul Old Monsters in the Archaic Alliance, there would be very few of them.
However, according to what Xin Yijie said, there were at least twenty to thirty Old Monsters in the Archaic Alliance. This number was incomparable to the Heaven Stage Island, which was full of experts. However, it was much better than what Lin Yi had imagined. According to what Xin Yijie said, the Archaic Alliance should not be underestimated.
Two years ago, Old Monsters in the Nascent Soul Realm were people that Lin Yi had to look up to. Even on the Heaven Stage Island, they could become the elders of a sect. He didn't expect that there were so many of them in the Archaic Alliance!
"Blue Cloud Sect is one of the ten small sects and families. How are Rising Sky Sect and Xuanji Sect doing now?" Lin Yi asked.
"Rising Sky Sect has two Old Monsters in the Nascent Soul Realm, which is also one of the ten small sects and families. As for Xuanji Sect, it hasn't been doing well in the past two years. The original Old Monster in the Nascent Soul Realm is missing, so it was removed from the ten small sects and families. Now, it can only be regarded as an ordinary sect." Xin Yijie sighed.
The three sects of the North Island were like brothers. Although there were all kinds of open and secret fights between them, they were always united against outsiders. Although they could only be ranked as one of the ten small sects and families, if the three sects of the North Island were put together, even the most powerful four sects and families would not dare to underestimate them. Now that Xuanji Sect had declined, it was inevitable that they would feel interdependent.
"By the way, there's a question I wanted to ask just now. Why did you add the North Island before the three sects? Is there another island in the Archaic Underworld?" Lin Yi asked thoughtfully.
"Oh, there's a question I wanted to ask just now. Why did you add the North Island before the three sects? Is there another island in the Archaic Underworld?" Lin Yi asked thoughtfully. Xin Yijie suddenly became suspicious. However, since Lin Yi had just recited the entire original version of the Green Cloud Calming Technique to him, he did not suspect that Lin Yi was a liar again. He just felt that Lin Yi's question was strange.
"No, at least during my time, it was only called Blue Cloud Sect, but I wouldn't add the North Island in front of it." Lin Yi made up a story in a serious manner.
He was sure that Xin Yijie did not know much about the Archaic Era. After all, it was hard to verify this kind of thing, unless he could find the real seniors of the sect who survived from the Archaic Era and confront them face to face. Even then, Lin Yi could make up a story without thinking. No one would really care about this kind of thing that had nothing to do with core interests.
"Well …" Xin Yijie was stumped by the question as expected. He shook his head and smiled bitterly. "Although I'm already an elder in the Blue Cloud Sect of the North Island, I really don't know much about these things. I only know that I've been called the Blue Cloud Sect of the North Island since I was young. But it's normal. After all, geographically speaking, the three sects are located in the north of the Archaic Underworld. It's not an exaggeration to say that it's the North Island across the lake. Besides, the three sects of the North Island also belong to the Cultivation North Alliance."
"The Cultivation North Alliance?" Lin Yi was stunned.
"Yes, the Archaic Alliance is just a unified name. In fact, it's made up of five top forces. They are divided into East, West, South, North, and Central. The three sects of the North Island and some other sects and families belong to the Cultivation North Island Alliance, also known as the Cultivation North Alliance. Meanwhile, the Snow Sword Faction and the Thousand Blades Faction belong to the Cultivation Central Alliance. The Qiankun Sect and the Evil Warding Sect belong to the Cultivation South Alliance. There's also the Cultivation ASEAN Alliance and the Cultivation West Alliance," Xin Yijie explained.
"…" Lin Yi was completely speechless. Wasn't this just a copy of the Five Major Islands of Heaven Stage? Other than some differences in details, the overall layout was almost the same. Now, he was even more convinced of his bold conjecture that the Heaven Stage Island and the Archaic Underworld came from the same mother's womb!
"Grand Master, the strength of the Grand Five Alliance is determined by the strength of the sects and families under its jurisdiction. Other than that, the Grand Five Alliance also has exclusive forces. But I don't know much about them. Only by joining the Elders of the Alliance can I get hold of these core secrets. My current level is far from enough," Xin Yijie said embarrassedly.
