This aura was vast, majestic, and filled with boundless pressure. No one dared to even think of resisting, and they all knelt on the ground. Not only that, but the entire Floating Spirit Region seemed to be affected by this aura, and everyone present was subconsciously suppressed by it.
They couldn't describe what kind of feeling this was, but they knew very well that this person could probably kill them all with just a thought.
Tangerine's aura was fleeting, and it quickly withdrew completely. It lazily turned over in Hayashikawa's arms and found a very comfortable position to take a nap.
However, the terrifying nightmare it left behind had already seeped into everyone's bones and was impossible to erase.
"Hall Master, this cat … is …" The Pure Sun Sect's old sect master asked in a trembling voice, not even daring to raise his head to look at Tangerine.
"It's the accompanying divine beast of your Floating Spirit Region!" Hayashikawa said softly.
Gasp …
Everyone present sucked in a breath of cold air. They never would've thought that the pet cat Hayashikawa was actually the accompanying divine beast of their Floating Spirit Region. From the terrifying aura just now, its cultivation should've reached the terrifying Grand Ascension Stage, making it an invincible existence in the entire Floating Spirit Region.
At this moment, all thoughts of resistance in their hearts were shattered. They had no way of dealing with such an invincible opponent, not to mention that this was the accompanying divine beast of their Floating Spirit Region. It couldn't be killed at all.
No one knew exactly what the relationship between Blue Dragon and Tangerine was, but from the moment the Blue Dragon appeared in front of everyone in the Floating Spirit Region, this cat had always been by his side. Even if the Blue Dragon couldn't command this cat to do anything, it was clear that they had a friendly relationship with each other. If they wanted to attack the Blue Dragon, would this cat just stand by and watch? Probably not!
At this moment, everyone finally understood why the Blue Dragon dared to gather all the powerful cultivators of the Floating Spirit Region in the Floating Spirit Hall. Not only did he have the strength to suppress and subdue everyone, he also had the accompanying divine beast of the Floating Spirit Region as a trump card. An accident? That was impossible!
The Sect Masters of the various sects who were about to break free from the control of the Floating Spirit Hall were now prostrating themselves on the ground. They put away all their thoughts and submitted to Hayashikawa.
"Although I'm not a cultivator of the Floating Spirit Region, since I've become the hall master of the Floating Spirit Hall, the ruler of the entire Floating Spirit Region, I won't mistreat you. As long as you work for the Floating Spirit Hall and benefit the continent, I can only give you more!" Hayashikawa said slowly as he hovered in the air.
He was practically at the peak of the Floating Spirit Region, so there was no need for him to kill these people. If he could make good use of them and make the entire Floating Spirit Region work for him, that would be the most beneficial thing for him.
Hayashikawa raised his right hand and touched the Mysterious Jade of the Nine Heavens floating beside him.
Weng!
A layer of pure white light emanated from the Mysterious Jade of the Nine Heavens, filling the entire hall. In an instant, Immortal Qi filled the air. Everyone was enveloped by this sudden pure energy, as if they were in an immortal realm. They could feel a strange fluctuation in their cultivation and actually improved a lot in an instant.
"This item is called the Mysterious Jade of the Nine Heavens. It's the accompanying immortal weapon of the Floating Spirit Region and can emit an endless amount of pure Immortal Qi. Now that it has recognized me as its master, this is the most fundamental reason why I can become the hall master of the Floating Spirit Hall!"
The cultivators prostrating themselves on the ground felt as if they were dreaming. The pure Immortal Qi in the air made everything seem even more unreal. The accompanying immortal weapon, the Mysterious Jade of the Nine Heavens, and the favor of the accompanying immortal beast, this Blue Dragon seemed to control the most powerful force in the entire Floating Spirit Region.
"I will build a Celestial Spirit Pavilion in the Floating Spirit Hall that is filled with Immortal Qi. Anyone who has contributed to the Floating Spirit Hall, or those who are exceptionally talented, can enter the Celestial Spirit Pavilion to cultivate. Many of you have already reached a bottleneck in your cultivation. If you have the opportunity to enter the Celestial Spirit Pavilion to absorb Immortal Qi, it will be greatly beneficial to your advancement. That's all I have to say. You should know what choice to make!" Hayashikawa's voice reverberated in the hall, lingering for a long time.
As a ruler, Hayashikawa knew the importance of combining kindness and power. To put it bluntly, it was like carrots and sticks. He had to use absolute force to suppress them, but he also had to reward them with sufficient rewards.
If there was only force without rewards, then it would be a cruel rule. No one would be loyal to you, and they wouldn't be willing to work for you. As long as there was a chance, they would resist.
If there were only rewards without force, then it would be weak and useless. These people wouldn't listen to you at all. Most of them would only raise a bunch of ingrates, and sooner or later, they would be overthrown.
Therefore, from the beginning until now, Hayashikawa had first used illusions and curses to display his absolute force to suppress them. Then, he let the Tangerine release the accompanying immortal beast's aura to destroy all thoughts of resistance. Finally, he used the Mysterious Jade of the Nine Heavens to promise them generous rewards that they couldn't refuse. He believed that no one would be able to resist his rule.
At this moment, there was a weak fluctuation in space. Five figures suddenly appeared beside Hayashikawa, surrounding Hayashikawa. Although their bodies were also floating in the air, they were much lower than Hayashikawa, showing their respect for Hayashikawa and their recognition of his status.
These five people were none other than the five elders of the Elder Altar!
For countless years, the five elders were the most respected figures in the Floating Spirit Region. Although they couldn't leave the Elder Altar for long periods of time, they kept the power of the entire continent in check and maintained the peace of the continent. For so many years, even if someone in the Floating Spirit Region managed to break through to the Spatial Tempering stage, no one could shake their existence. At this moment, the appearance of the five of them made everyone understand a fact, and that was that no one could stop Blue Dragon anymore.
With the accompanying divine beast's favour, the accompanying immortal artifact's acknowledgment, and the acknowledgment of the five elders of the Elder Altar, Blue Dragon could be said to have completely grasped the peak existence of the entire Floating Spirit Region. Even if no one was willing to admit it, Blue Dragon already controlled the entire continent. Their agreement couldn't sway him at all.
"We pay our respects to the hall master. We are willing to do our utmost for the Floating Spirit Hall until our deaths!"
All the sect leaders prostrated on the ground said in unison.
The old sect leader of the Pure Sun Sect, the sect leader of the Nine Stars Peak, and the sect leader of the Celestial Sect all had great enmity with Blue Dragon. At this moment, they could only lower their heads and submit because they couldn't resist Blue Dragon anymore. Compared to death, they could only accept everything before them. In fact, some of them were already plotting how to serve Blue Dragon well and fight for the right to enter the Immortal Spirit Pavilion.
"Then, my first task for all of you is to help me collect all the precious spiritual herbs in the Floating Spirit Region. The more you contribute, the easier it will be for you to enter the Immortal Spirit Pavilion!" Hayashikawa's lips curled into a smile.
From now on, the Floating Spirit Region would be his personal spiritual herb garden. No one could touch it.
