"The one you killed last time was one of the Maoshan Sect's guardian beasts. However, the one you killed was an infant, and it was a jungle beast," Han Zifeng explained.
"Oh, so tell me more about those guardian beasts." Xiatian was very curious about those guardian beasts.
During the battle last time, he had to transform and was almost killed.
"There are generally three types of guardian beasts: land, sea, and air. The one you killed was King Kong. If you were to fight him in the jungle, his powers would be doubled, just like those sea beasts. They are very powerful in the water," Han Zifeng explained.
"Then why are they humans?" Xiatian found the Witchcraft Sect and the Maoshan Sect to be more and more mysterious.
"They aren't the combination of a human and a Divine Beast. As for how they were combined, I don't know. It seems that it takes a lot of resources to cultivate a Divine Beast Guardian. Our Witchcraft Sect only had two at that time." Han Zifeng was just a little guy in the Witchcraft Sect back then, so he knew very little.
"Interesting. This is getting more and more interesting." Xiatian liked to look forward to such things. "Tell me about the origin of the Witchcraft Sect. It might be helpful for us in the future."
Xiatian knew that the more they knew, the easier it would be for them in the future. "This is not a secret.
It was said that the Witchcraft Sect and the Maoshan Sect originated from the Warring States Period. A pair of brothers found a huge treasure by accident. The treasure contained countless wealth and resources, as well as cultivation methods. Later, the two of them were successful in their cultivation and opened the ultimate treasure. There was a supreme treasure inside, but there was no record of what the treasure was. So, the two of them decided to enjoy the treasure together. They cultivated bit by bit and lived in peace until one day, when the treasure was lost. The two of them flew into a rage and fought a great battle. However, the two of them cultivated in the same way, so neither of them could do anything to the other. "Han Zifeng paused for a moment when he said that." There were people from the Witchcraft Sect and the Maoshan Sect around. "
"It's fine. Continue! "Xiatian said casually.
"Later on, both of them believed that the other had stolen it. As such, they founded the Witchcraft Sect and the Maoshan Sect, intending to develop new powers to destroy the other party. According to historical records, the Maoshan Sect and the Witchcraft Sect were destroyed more than five times by each other, yet they were able to rise again in the end." At this point, Han Zifeng lowered his voice. "I suspect that the reason why he was able to make a comeback is because of the treasure."
"Interesting!" Xiatian smiled and Asked again, "Have the Witchcraft Sect and the Maoshan Sect been here since ancient times?"
"No, this place was moved here 500 years ago. It is said that there are great treasures in the Heavenly Lake, and it is because of those treasures that the Witchcraft Sect and Maoshan Sect have been able to prosper for so long." Han Zifeng went back to the Heavenly Lake.
However, Xiatian was willing to believe this conjecture because the Heaven Lake was too mysterious.
Furthermore, both the Witchcraft Sect and the Maoshan Sect had established their sects there because there were treasures and an environment for cultivation that they needed. Otherwise, after so many years, all the major sects and clans would have been exhausted.
"How powerful was the Witchcraft Sect at its peak?" Xiatian Asked.
"The Great Ancestor, the Left and Right Guardians, the Cave Lords of the 32 Caves, and the Mountain Lords of the 760 Mountains," Han Zifeng explained.
"What were their levels of power?" Xiatian Asked again.
"The Mountain Lords of the 760 Mountains ranged from late Mystic Level to Great Completion Mystic Level. The Cave Lords of the 32 Caves were all at Earth Level. As for the Left and Right Guardians and the Great Ancestor, I'm not sure about their levels of power," Han Zifeng explained.
"That's amazing. The Maoshan Sect and the Witchcraft Sect together should be able to take on the Yin Sect, right?" Xiatian exclaimed. The Yin Sect was indeed very powerful, but none of the other sects and clans in the Yin Sect were as powerful as the Maoshan Sect and the Witchcraft Sect.
"It's different. Even if they were to fight, they would still need to consider the environment. I've read in the records that the Yin Sect is very powerful. Furthermore, they seem to have some kind of power within them, which is why the people of the Witchcraft Sect and the Maoshan Sect dared not go there. Of course, if they were to come and attack the Witchcraft Sect or the Maoshan Sect, they would still be sending themselves to their deaths." Han Zifeng explained, "Whoever is the main battlefield will win."
"I see." Xiatian became more cautious. At the same time, he decided to go inside and look for records to read. He would use his photographic memory to memorize everything in the records and slowly digest them when he got back.
"Yes. Although the Maoshan Sect is currently the most powerful sect, they have almost exhausted all of their resources to deal with the Witchcraft Sect. They want the treasures of the Witchcraft Sect more than anyone else to increase the strength of the Maoshan Sect's Great Ancestor. As long as the Maoshan Sect's Great Ancestor can make another breakthrough, he will definitely be able to enter the Heavenly Lake and obtain more cultivation resources." Although what Han Zifeng knew was only superficial, it was often the most superficial things that could be used to explain the situation.
Xiatian speculated that the Maoshan Sect and the Witchcraft Sect chose this place as their base because there were great treasures in the Heavenly Lake. However, there were also water monsters running rampant in the Heavenly Lake, so they did not dare to set foot there carelessly. When one's strength reached a certain level, they would be able to enter the water to obtain a portion of the great treasures and use them to increase their strength. When their strength increased again, they would be able to dive deeper.
Furthermore, those divine guardian beasts were definitely not to be underestimated.
They must have used some kind of method to nurture those divine guardian beasts.
It was especially so for the divine beasts in the water, which were used to transport the great treasures.
Furthermore, no matter how powerful a person was, once they entered the water, they would not be able to unleash more than 50% of their strength.
However, things were different for the monsters in the water, as they were able to unleash 100% of their strength in the water.
"Looks like the Witchcraft Sect's treasures have attracted quite a lot of people." Xiatian looked around.
"Yes, but the most powerful ones are the Maoshan Sect and the North Koreans, followed by the survivors of the Witchcraft Sect, as well as other smaller sects and clans," Han Zifeng explained. At present, there was no one who could stand against the Maoshan Sect.
Regardless of how powerful the North Koreans were, there was no way they could take on the entire Maoshan Sect.
Furthermore, the North Koreans had always coveted the cultivation methods of the Maoshan Sect. As such, the North Koreans had come up with many ways to deal with the Maoshan Sect, but they all failed.
The opening of the Witchcraft Sect's treasures was an opportunity for the North Koreans.
As long as they were able to get their hands on the treasures of the Witchcraft Sect, they would naturally be able to obtain their own cultivation methods. The Witchcraft Sect's methods of cultivation were not all that different from those of the Maoshan Sect.
