He didn't know how Lonemoon fooled them, but more and more Divine Heavens Sect disciples came to Honesty Sect, and all of them were sword cultivators who came to challenge the sword array. Honesty Sect received so many spirit stones that their hands were sore, and it was more than ten times more expensive than the spirit stones used to enter the mystic realm.
Lou Hong was confused about this, and didn't even know when Lonemoon and the Divine Heavens Sect Sect Master agreed on this. Why did every Divine Heavens Sect disciple look like they got a great deal when they clearly paid a huge price to enter the sword array that disciples could enter at will?
Besides, although Supremacy Lonemoon's sword array was exquisite, other sects had it, not to mention a big sect like Divine Heavens Sect. The only advantage was that even Nascent Soul cultivators could enter the sword array.
Lou Hong was full of doubts, until the sect welcomed the first batch of Nascent Soul cultivators. The spirit stones each cultivator brought made him even more speechless, almost as much as Honesty Sect's income in half a year. He couldn't help but ask.
"Oh." Lonemoon answered matter-of-factly, "I told them that within three years, other than our sect, only Divine Heavens Sect's Nascent Soul cultivators can enter the sword array." The premium exclusive membership price was, of course, more expensive.
Lou Hong: "…"
So that was it. It didn't matter if their own sect didn't have many Nascent Soul cultivators, but there were many in the Three Azure Realms. But it was extremely difficult to ascend to the Soul Formation stage. Nine out of ten failed. Mainly because they lacked the opportunity to ascend, it was very difficult to find a place to train. So a sword array that could allow Nascent Soul cultivators to enter would naturally attract the attention of various sects. The earlier they entered, the earlier they had the chance to ascend. As the number one immortal sect, Divine Heavens Sect was naturally willing to have a few more Soul Formation cultivators, and the sooner the better. The sooner they became the number one immortal sect, the more stable their position would be. Naturally, they were willing to pay any price.
And their Honesty Sect gave Divine Heavens Sect so much convenience. Presumably, the relationship between the two sects would be different in the future, and it would be more beneficial to Honesty Sect. As expected of a Soul Formation Supremacy, he had already thought so far ahead? As the sect master, he was really ashamed!
"Supremacy, you are really far-sighted!" He cupped his fists and bowed seriously, having the urge to throw out the position of sect master for the umpteenth time.
Lonemoon, who only wanted to raise the price, so he pulled a living signboard: "…"
Reality proved that Lonemoon's sword array was indeed very useful. In just a few years, the cultivation of the disciples in the sect had reached a new level. There were even some disciples who were originally at the Golden Core stage who successfully formed their Nascent Souls. Wu Wang was no longer a sect that only had two Nascent Soul cultivators.
It was the same for the people from Divine Heavens Sect, especially the few Nascent Soul cultivators. After coming out of the array, although they didn't directly advance to the Soul Formation stage, the cultivators who hadn't moved for many years had more or less loosened up. Everyone was pleasantly surprised, and they were even more generous with their Spirit Stones. Some even took the initiative to increase the price.
Honesty Sect's treasury was filled up at a visible speed, and they were completely out of poverty.
To this, Lonemoon felt that it was too boring to farm low-level instance dungeons. After handing everything over to Lou Hong, he didn't care anymore and focused on watching Yi Qing's cultivation. He was determined to prevent Shen Ying from pulling him astray to become a body cultivator. This went on for three years.
Since returning from that mystic realm, Yi Qing didn't know what stimulated him, but he became more and more diligent in his cultivation. His set of sword techniques became more and more perfect. His original cultivation was there, and he just lacked the recovery of spirit power. Once he got serious, his cultivation rose even more. In less than three years, he directly reached the Golden Core stage and was about to form his Nascent Soul.
Lonemoon could only stop him. How long had he been cultivating? In less than six years, he formed his Core. He could still explain that he had an epiphany in the mystic realm, but to form his Nascent Soul in less than ten years was too scary. Although they weren't afraid of others coveting him, he hadn't recovered his previous memories after all. If he jumped too fast, something would really happen to his body. Then all their efforts would be in vain.
To this, Yi Qing didn't say anything. Stuck at the half-step Nascent Soul stage, he really stopped when he said so.
"What? Sect competition? "Lonemoon glanced at Lou Hong, who was smiling confidently.
"That's right!" Lou Hong nodded and said, "There is a sect competition in the Three Azure Realms every ten years, and each sect takes turns to host it. In recent years, the disciples in the sect have been quite active in cultivating. It's a good thing to be able to participate in the competition. "
"Yes, then let's go!" Why tell him?
"But …" Lou Hong looked troubled. Looking at Lonemoon's expression, he gritted his teeth and said, "The sect competition this time, the various sects suggested … to be held in our sect!"
"What?" Lonemoon glanced at him. It was written all over his face that if he wanted to hold it here, would they pay?
Lou Hong wiped his cold sweat. "This … In the past, the sect competition was always held in first-class sects like Divine Heavens Sect and Mystic Essence Sect. I don't know why, but this time they want to hold it here? " Although in recent years, especially after Supremacy Lonemoon came, Honesty Sect's financial strength had improved, especially in terms of financial strength, but ultimately, immortal sects valued strength. Honesty Sect only had two Soul Formation Supremacies, so it naturally couldn't be counted as a first-class sect.
"What do you think?" Lonemoon frowned.
"Hosting the sect's grand ceremony is an important thing to raise the sect's status, and it's just providing a venue for the competition. I think … it's worth a try." Lou Hong nodded and said.
"Since you've already settled it, you can arrange it." Lonemoon nodded. Thinking of something, he added, "Oh yes, from tomorrow onwards, the sword array will be temporarily sealed. Just tell those Divine Heavens Sect Nascent Soul cultivators that it's for the preparation for the competition."
Lou Hong's eyes brightened, and he instantly understood something. He nodded hard. "Lou Hong understands!"
Pushing the sect competition to a mid-tier sect, anyone could guess that all the sects had their own reasons. And the only thing that could make people think about Honesty Sect was that sword array. Yet in these three years, they only accepted Divine Heavens Sect disciples into the array. The other sects probably heard the news long ago, and wanted to take advantage of the sect competition to find out more about the void, and also to send their disciples to try it out.
Even Divine Heavens Sect probably didn't know about this, so the other sects directly informed Lou Hong. That was why Lonemoon closed the sword array, and let the Divine Heavens Sect cultivators go back to report.
But to Honesty Sect, this really wasn't a loss. Back then, Lonemoon had promised three years. Now that the time limit had passed, in theory, it wouldn't matter if other sects went. But the key was that the number of people entering the sword array was limited. If other sects entered, then Divine Heavens Sect's people would correspondingly decrease. It would be strange if they weren't anxious.
So in order to get a few more places, Divine Heavens Sect would naturally do their best to help in this sect competition. So that they could get a few more places to enter the array. And Honesty Sect … just had to lie down and earn money.
