"Absolute fairness and justice?" Lu Sheng was stunned as well. What kind of condition was that?
"Most of the fellows there believe in the principle of equal exchange. As for absolute justice, it's probably some of the more rigid doctrines. If you're one of the two, you can choose to join them. "
Lu Sheng shook his head slightly. Indeed, this was not a suitable choice.
"I'll choose the Green Branch Sect. When can we depart? "
"Five days later. I'll arrange everything and send someone to fetch you. The person will show my mark. Be careful not to mistake him for an enemy," Zhuang Jiu said simply.
"Alright."
The communication was complete. The gray rift instantly vanished.
More than half of the crystals on the formation had also exploded, leaving only a small portion that had not been completely consumed.
'This communication with Zhuang Jiu should be enough to solve most of the problems I'm currently facing. If everything goes well, I'll naturally be able to resolve my predicament. '
Lu Sheng waved his arm and released Devil Qi. He wiped away the traces on the formation.
He glanced at his remaining Mental Energy. He had more than 190,000 units left. He had used some in the previous world, but he had replenished some after that. He managed to make ends meet.
'My rate of improvement is fast enough. I won't need these for now. I'll use them to master the cultivation skill formulas when I reach the Green Branch Sect.'
Up until now, he had noticed that there was a problem with the way he used the modifier.
This trip had attracted too much attention. It had exposed his extraordinary cultivation strength. That was why it caused a commotion.
In truth, the Deep Blue Modifier would require more Mental Energy to level up in the later stages. In that case, this modifier should mainly be used during breakthroughs.
He should use the Mental Energy he accumulated during breakthroughs to improve his foundation and reach a higher tier in one go.
After all, for the modifier, as long as all the conditions for leveling up were met, he could just click on it.
The current Infinity Technique could not fully utilize the modifier's functions because the conditions for each tier were more complicated and the Mental Energy consumed was too much.
However, if he had a systematic cultivation skill formula, he could save his Mental Energy and only use it during crucial moments. This would ensure that he would far surpass his peers.
When he thought about this, Lu Sheng walked out of the small hall. Five days was enough for him to make arrangements for the Lu Manor and the Prime Devil Sect.
He had to consider who was willing to go with him and how many people he could bring with him.
…
In the next few days, Lu Sheng went around making arrangements to gather manpower. After careful consideration, he decided that he would not bring anyone else with him except his son and Chen Yunxi.
As long as he managed to gain a foothold in the sect, even if there were any conflicts in the Great Yin, there wouldn't be any problems.
But before he left, he still had to deal with some enemies and prepare some backup plans …
Lu Sheng contacted Li Shunxi again. This time, he successfully found the guy who had just come out of seclusion. He seemed to have gone through a lot of hardships and looked very haggard.
Hearing Lu Sheng's request, he readily agreed to take care of the Lu Manor and the Prime Devil Sect after Lu Sheng left.
He had heard about the First Sacred King as well. However, the First Sacred King and his master weren't on good terms anyway. Now that the First Sacred King was injured, begging his master to protect the Lu Manor and the Prime Devil Sect wasn't a big deal.
Lu Sheng had only sought him out as a form of insurance. His true reliance wasn't Li Shunxi.
Five days passed in the blink of an eye. Lu Sheng had arranged everything. He didn't directly tell the people around him that he was leaving. Instead, he gave them a simple hint.
On the evening of the fifth day, the person sent by Zhuang Jiu finally arrived.
…..
On a barren sandy land in the Nine Bright Province.
Sparse yellow rocks were scattered all over the place. A few sand vultures flapped their mutated black wings and screeched shrilly from a withered tree in the distance.
The sky was cloudless, and the ground was a dark yellow. The air kept rising and twisting, enveloping all the moisture on the ground.
On the side of a huge yellow sandstone that was filled with holes, Lu Sheng wore a black cloak that covered his upper body. He looked at the horizon in the distance.
Time passed slowly. The yellow sunlight grew dimmer.
Unbeknownst to Lu Sheng, some black, withered leaves floated in front of him.
Gradually, the withered leaves increased in number and density.
A large number of black, withered leaves gradually formed the shape of a human in front of Lu Sheng.
"I've come to receive you on the orders of the Devil King of Fifth Heaven. Are you the Wolf King?" The person did not seem to have a body. He merely used the black withered leaves to form a human figure that was as tall as Lu Sheng. He spoke through the sound of countless leaves rubbing against each other.
The language of the voice was the Language of E.
"Yes. How long will it take for me to get to the Green Branch Sect? Can I bring someone with me? "Lu Sheng asked simply. The person's strength was at the Divine Lord level at most. It was nothing.
"The Green Branch Sect doesn't have jurisdiction here. It's best if you leave immediately. Also, whether you can gain the favor of the Green Branch Sect will depend on your potential and strength, "the leaf man replied in a deep voice.
"Understood. One more question. Can I not withdraw from the Green Branch Sect after joining it? "Lu Sheng asked again.
"You can't withdraw after becoming a core disciple. Those who have inherited a core Taoist method can't withdraw either. The rest is up to you. Many of these traditional sects are like a huge trading market. You'll understand when the time comes, "the leaf man said casually.
"I understand. So, if I leave now, when can I come back? "Lu Sheng asked one last question.
"As long as the Transportation Formation is open, you can come back anytime. The Green Branch Sect is very close to this planet," the leaf man said simply. "If you want, you can make a trip there today. You can come back a little later. The technology here doesn't restrict the ability to teleport in and out. "
"Alright." Lu Sheng had a rough idea of how important the Yellow Springs Planet was to the leaf man.
It made sense. As the breeding planet of The Mother Of Pain, the Yellow Springs Planet could not possibly have any profound cultivation methods or legacies circulating. The parts that could be circulated were all permitted by the World of Pain. Moreover, they were all cultivation methods with loopholes that were beneficial to them.
Under such circumstances, whether it was Great Song or Great Yin, there was no difference between them. They were all powerless against the World of Pain. They were all meat cows.
"Alright, stop dawdling. Let's go. The sooner we go, the sooner we can return. The Green Branch Sect is nearby. I'll bring you there. "The leaf man extended a hand and grabbed Lu Sheng's shoulder. He leaped up lightly.
"Pcchht!"
His vision blurred. What appeared before Lu Sheng was an ancient-looking passageway that was blocked by countless black screens on both sides.
He turned around and looked around. Apart from the passageway before him, the other three directions were pitch-black.
"Welcome. This is the passageway for the Green Branch Sect's basic disciples. What you need to do now is to walk through this passageway in the shortest time possible. Your results here will determine your status after joining the sect. "A sweet female voice slowly came from the passageway.
"At the end of the passageway is one of the Green Branch Sect's secret grounds — the Cloud Sky Pavilion."
Lu Sheng looked at the black screens on both sides. There was nothing on the screens other than a piece of white cloth.
"Lord Heavenly Devil King has prepared it for you. Go. No matter what your results are, the examiner will give you an excellent score," the leaf man transmitted his voice into his ear.
"Alright." Lu Sheng nodded slowly. He could feel the faint gazes from behind the screens around him. It was clear that many people were watching him.
After giving it some thought, he walked forward slowly. He took a few steps and entered the passageway.
"This is a special examination. The Heavenly Devil King has taken special care of the Green Branch Sect. They have a certain level of understanding of your strength. So, don't hold back. Unleash your full strength and let them see your value," the leaf man reminded him again.
"Understood." Lu Sheng nodded.
…
Green Branch Sect. Cloud Sky Pavilion.
In the main control room of the Formation on the third floor of the ancient, light red pavilion.
Immortal Ta Yu yawned. She propped her legs on the Thousand Mirror Platform lazily. She ignored the mess of runes and inscriptions on it.
"How generous. It's been more than a year since the Recruitment Meet, and I'm suddenly required to activate the examination Grand Formation for one person. Who's so important? "
She had just returned from the border planet, and she immediately saw this special mission with great rewards. She quickly snatched it.
"Big Sister, there are a lot of external divine consciousness connections. Looks like it's a core member of the clan that's being watched by the important people. Should we sneak in a little? " A handsome bald scholar asked softly. He glanced at Immortal Ta Yu's exposed breasts and gulped.
"Sneak in? Are you out of your mind? "Immortal Ta Yu slapped the scholar's head.
"See what's written on this guy's face? I'm rich! I'm rich! How dare you play tricks on this kind of person who clearly has' I have a backer 'printed on his forehead? "
Ta Yu said impatiently, "Without special instructions from the higher-ups, we must carry it out impartially. Alright, activate the standard Formation. "
"Wait!" Suddenly, a gentle male voice came from outside the door. The door opened, and the Formation locks disintegrated.
Soon enough, a man in black and red full-body armor walked slowly into the control room.
"I'm a little late. My apologies. Also, there's something unusual with The Mother Of Pain. This person isn't an ordinary person. He has the Pain Mark on him! "the man said with a straight face.
"The Pain Mark? Can't we just remove it? As long as it's not the highest grade, "Ta Yu said impatiently.
"That's not the point. The point is, this person has a great secret. In just a dozen years, he rose from an ordinary person to the Army Raising tier." The man narrowed his eyes as he stared at Lu Sheng's image on the Thousand Mirror Platform. "This person didn't mention this before joining the sect. Instead, he's thinking of using the Green Branch Sect's power to resist the World of Pain's pressure. He has ulterior motives and is very selfish. "
"Oh? There's such a thing? "Immortal Ta Yu was stunned. She put her leg down and stood up to tidy her long silver hair. "What do the higher-ups plan to do?"
"There are already Confusion Realm master uncles waiting at the end of the passageway. He must hand over his secret. He can join the sect, but since his secret was taken away, he'll surely bear a grudge. Even if he grows stronger in the future, he'll still bear a grudge against our sect."
"So … you plan to devour him along with his treasure?" Immortal Ta Yu snorted.
"Of course not." The man shook his head slightly. "This person has the backing of the Ghost Borneo World's Fifth Heavenly Devil King. The Heavenly Devil King wants half of the treasure, and we'll have the other half. Also, we can't kill the person. He needs the spirit … However, if the World of Pain comes to kill us, and we're not prepared, we might slip up and let them have their way. Won't we be taking advantage of the situation? "
"Junior Brother, you're still as vicious as ever. It's been so many years, you haven't changed at all. "Ta Yu could not help but shake her head.
"You flatter me, Senior Sister." The man cupped his fists and smiled.
