Elder Fei really didn't have any arrogance left.
If he could get a single one of those legendary dan beads, he would even be willing to call him daddy, let alone being injured.
It was a pity that he didn't know what was good for him. If he wanted it again … he probably wouldn't get another chance.
After the matter was over, everyone returned to the meeting hall. Su Yin looked at the expert from the alliance and said, "Elder Fei, you're injured. It's a little unfair for you to compete with me again. Do you still want to continue?"
Elder Fei trembled, and his face turned pale. He hurriedly shook his head and said, "There's no need for that. I overestimated myself before. Please forgive me, Junior Martial Uncle!"
Such a ferocious donkey, such a formidable demon king, was actually scared into silence by Zhang Xuan's scolding. This wasn't a one-on-one duel … it was courting death!
Su Yin heaved a sigh of relief. If he really wanted to compete, he wouldn't be able to win. If he really couldn't win, he would just have to let the donkey out.
After all, his tamed beast was part of his strength.
"Junior Martial Uncle, the Alliance Elder Hall has invited you to the Great Dragon Mountain for the Sect Leader Meeting five days later to discuss some important matters. You mustn't miss it. Otherwise, the Suppressing Immortal Sect will definitely be isolated!"
Elder Fei said after resting for a while and recovering from his injuries.
"Thank you, Elder Fei. I'll definitely go personally …" Su Yin clasped his fist.
Xu Chong had already mentioned the Sect Leader Meeting, so he had already prepared for it. Currently, there weren't any other experts in the Suppressing Immortal Sect other than him. It wouldn't be appropriate if he didn't attend.
"I still have to inform the other sects, so I won't be staying any longer …" Elder Fei clasped his fist and bowed. "I'll be waiting for Junior Martial Uncle's arrival!"
He had been waiting for a long time, and he wanted to show off his strength to the other party. In the end, not only did he fail, he even took a blow from the other party. It would only be more embarrassing if he stayed any longer. Thus, he might as well take his leave.
With that, he turned around and flew out, disappearing into the sky.
"The Alliance Elder Hall, the Sect Leader Meeting … What's going on?"
After Elder Fei left, Su Yin looked at Wu Yuan and the others.
When he heard about the evaluation of the sects, he found it strange. Who gave them the right to evaluate the sects? Furthermore, was it really a sect that was evaluated as a first-rate sect?
The strength of the sects should not be so clearly separated!
"Many years ago, countless sects in the Great Yan State joined forces to form a brand-new force. It has the right to determine the rank of the sects and distribute the spirit veins!" Wu Yuan said.
"Distribute the spirit veins?" Su Yin was stunned.
Wu Yuan explained, "The strength of a sect depends on the spirit vein. It is the foundation of all the disciples' cultivation! Generally, the first-rate sects control the first-rate spirit veins, the second-rate sects control the second-rate spirit veins, and so on … However, these spirit veins are not fixed underground. They are distributed by the alliance! "
"Let's take the Suppressing Immortal Sect as an example. As long as you're still a first-rate sect after the evaluation, you'll be able to claim a first-rate spirit vein that can sustain your sect for five years! Once they lose, they will be given to the other sects. The stronger sects will be given good resources, while the weaker ones will be given poor resources. Based on this logic, the strong will always be strong, and the weak will always be weak. However, there are exceptions. Take us for example. If not for Little Senior Uncle, we would have been reduced to a second-tier sect.
"This …" Su Yin blinked his eyes in astonishment.
All along, he had thought that the spirit veins grew underground, and over the course of millions of years, they formed a mine that harnessed rich spiritual energy. But in the end … they were distributed? How could they be taken away?
"Putting aside the Great Yan State, even the entire continent has disappeared many years ago. The spirit veins that are in use now are obtained through special means by the alliance!"
Seeing through Zhang Xuan's thoughts, Xu Chong interjected.
"Special means? What means? "
"This involves the establishment of the alliance and the secret of the continent!"
Wu Yuan and the others were also unaware of this matter. Only Xu Chong could explain it to them. "Simply put, there are no spirit veins in the other parts of the continent. Only the area beneath the Great Dragon Mountain guarded by the alliance has a place to obtain them. Furthermore, one has to pay a heavy price to obtain them. In fact, one can only obtain them through sacrifice! It is for this reason that the alliance is irreplaceable. Over the years, many first-rate sects have changed, but no one has dared to question its existence. "
Su Yin widened his eyes in realization.
If that was the case, the alliance wasn't just an alliance between the sects; it was also the source of their strength. It was no wonder those who had gone there were unwilling to return. With such a powerful alliance, no one would want to return!
"Under normal circumstances, the Sect Leader Assembly is held once every hundred years to discuss the important decisions of the Great Yan State. The reason why it was held in such a hurry without any prior notice is due to … an unforeseen event!"
Xu Chong's face turned grim. "Five days ago, the sky suddenly shook, and a blinding light and a gigantic 'Sage' character appeared. I believe all of you have seen it, right?"
The crowd nodded.
Su Yin nodded in agreement. He had seen it when he first left the forbidden grounds. If he had been a little later, he might have missed it. Furthermore, there was a huge storm at that time, and it was truly a spectacular sight.
"No one knows the exact reason for the unforeseen event, but it caused a huge commotion in the alliance. Beneath the Great Dragon Mountain, where one can obtain the spirit veins, there was a riot. Even with the strength of the alliance, they were unable to suppress it. This is also the reason why the others and I rushed out in a hurry to look for the Spirit Strengthening Immortal Stone to stabilize Elder Li's Fragmented Will and strengthen the seal … "
Xu Chong smiled bitterly.
The Spirit Strengthening Immortal Stone had been stolen by Sun Zhao for a hundred years. If they had been looking for it every day, they would have found it long ago. It would have been impossible for them to wait until now.
If it had been any other time, they would have been able to slack off. However, after the unforeseen event, they had no choice but to speed up. Fortunately, they were lucky enough to find it so quickly. Moreover, they had met their youngest martial uncle and obtained the supreme level Soul Protection Dan.
"In short, this assembly is extremely important. Not only our youngest martial uncle should go, but we should also bring some disciples with us. I believe that the assessment of the sect will be brought forward!"
"If we don't prepare in advance, the sect won't be able to become a first-class sect with only one person's strength. Even if we are lucky enough to succeed, there is still a gap between first-class and a certain level of spirit veins. I believe I don't need to say this. Everyone understands."
Xu Chong said.
The room became silent.
The Zhen Immortal Sect and the Qingyun Sect were both first-class, but the gap between them was still very obvious. Mo Yuan, who was in the Heritage Stage, couldn't be ranked first in the latter, but in the former … even the 'cheap senior martial brother' might not be able to win!
The reason for this situation was partly because of one's talent, and partly because of the spirit veins!
Powerful spirit veins had dense and pure spiritual energy. Even if a cultivator's talent was ordinary, they could still improve quickly and easily break through the barrier.
The Qingyun Sect was in such a situation. It could naturally produce more experts.
After understanding this, the others asked for more details.
Xu Chong told them everything that should be said. Su Yin finally had a better understanding of the Dry Origin Continent, the Great Yan State, where he lived.
To put it simply … Tens of thousands of years ago, after the Road of Heavenly Ascension was cut off, the spirit veins on the continent disappeared. For the sake of cultivation and survival, many sects in the Great Yan State found a mobile spirit vein in the Great Dragon Mountain!
The spirit vein was no different from before, except that its spiritual energy and quantity were limited. Moreover, it was extremely difficult to obtain. Therefore, the rules of the assessment of the sect and the division of the sects were established.
"If Junior Martial Uncle is planning to go to the alliance, you can leave now. We're going back as well, so we can travel together. It's quite a distance from here to the Great Dragon Mountain. A Divinity realm cultivator would need at least three days to fly there, and a Master realm cultivator would need two days to fly there! "
Xu Chong looked over and said, "Of course, it might be faster if we have a flying boat … However, our flying boat was damaged in the battle earlier, so it won't be repaired in a short time. If the Immortal Suppressing Sect has one, can you give us a ride?"
Without a flying boat, they wouldn't be able to fly quickly. If they had supreme pills with them, they wouldn't be as safe. If they could travel together with their Junior Martial Uncle, they wouldn't have to worry about such things.
Putting everything else aside, the donkey, tortoise, and parrot could easily kill a peak Legacy realm cultivator.
"This … Our Immortal Suppressing Sect doesn't have such a thing. Furthermore, if we were to bring the elders and disciples along, we would need a large flying boat …"
Wu Yuan, Yuan Buyi, and the others scratched their heads awkwardly.
The Immortal Suppressing Sect … was too poor!
They knew that flying boats were fast and stable, but … they couldn't afford it!
"You don't have to worry about that!" Su Yin interjected, "I have a flying boat! I just made one this morning. "
"You made one?" Wu Yuan was surprised and confused, "Didn't Junior Martial Uncle just come out from the Forbidden Grounds?"
A flying boat wasn't something that could be made just by being skilled in smithing. It required countless ores, countless refined iron, and a lot of time to make it.
The construction of every single flying boat required a lot of effort and manpower … We can understand why Junior Martial Uncle just came out of the Forbidden Grounds and made some pills and pots, but this thing … How could he make it in such a short time?
"Oh, when I went out this morning, I bought one!"
After explaining, Su Yin flicked his wrist and a thirty centimeter long wooden boat appeared in front of everyone, "It cost me one million silver taels!"
"…"
Everyone's mouth twitched.
Why did it sound like he was saying that he went shopping and bought some clothes? Went to the market and bought some cabbages?
If someone were to say that aircraft carriers were pretty good looking and that they could just buy a few of them … anyone would probably break down!
That was too unreliable!
After a moment of hesitation, Wu Yuan said awkwardly, "Junior Martial Uncle, Elder Xu is talking about a Spirit-tier flying boat … He doesn't mean such a small wooden boat!"
"I know. It's used to inscribe formation inscriptions. Its main body is still huge!"
Seeing that everyone had misunderstood, Su Yin shook his head. He walked up to the door and flicked his wrist. The wooden boat immediately flew out and floated above the square outside the hall.
Weng!
With a light buzz, the power of the shrinking formation inscriptions disappeared. The wooden boat swayed in the wind, and in the blink of an eye, it turned into a thirty meter long ship. It floated quietly in the air, exuding an immense pressure.
