Du Wa and the others fell into deep thought.
It was precisely because they did not want to join a large force and be controlled by others that they had created or inherited a small force.
Although their days were a little hard, they had absolute authority in the sect and were free.
Elixirs that could increase one's lifespan were very tempting, but they did not seem to have any effect on cultivation. This caused them to quickly calm down after their excitement.
After all, there were not many among them who were near the end of their lifespan like Mei Sha. Most of them were stuck at a realm and could not break through for a long time, so elixirs that could increase one's lifespan were not very tempting to them.
Egyptian Pharaoh Abu Sindo asked hesitantly, "Lord Celestial Master, is this the only elixir?"
This question was what everyone was thinking. They all looked at Celestial Master Magical Beast. As for the spirit weapons, spirit armors, and cultivation techniques, they selectively ignored them. After all, they had not seen it with their own eyes, so who knew if it was real or fake?
Celestial Master Magical Beast revealed a knowing smile. "Of course not. Young Master said that in addition to elixirs that can increase one's lifespan, there are also elixirs that can replenish one's energy, and elixirs that can help one break through bottlenecks."
Everyone's breathing suddenly quickened, and their eyes lit up. Replenishing elixirs were fine, but elixirs that could increase one's energy and help one break through bottlenecks were what they urgently needed. How could they not be tempted?
Under the temptation of increasing one's energy and breaking through bottlenecks, losing their freedom and being controlled by others did not seem unacceptable.
Seeing that they were all tempted, Celestial Master Magical Beast once again threw out loose conditions. "Young Master said that joining the new organization only requires absolute loyalty. There are no other conditions. After Young Master's orders are passed down, everyone just needs to carry out the orders to the letter. Everyone can do what they are supposed to do and have absolute autonomy."
"I'll join!"
Mei Sha happily looked at her wrinkled skin that had become moist and smooth again. No one who had not experienced the torture of waiting for death would understand the value of life. Not to mention Ding Ning's powerful martial strength, just this magical elixir that had given her a new life was enough for Mei Sha to make up her mind to join the new organization.
"Very good, Mei Sha is the first member to join the organization. According to Young Master's instructions, the first member to join the organization will be rewarded with a spiritual tool."
Empyrean Devil Beast took out a simple short sword with a pained expression and handed it to Mei Sha. Mei Sha was overjoyed. She took the short sword and played with it. She had seen a spirit artifact before, but she had never obtained one.
"What are you waiting for? Bind it with your blood and test the power of the Spirit Artifact."
The Ice Bear Emperor, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly spoke up.
He and Heavenly Venerate Devil Beast had also obtained a Spirit Artifact, and their hearts had always been itching to try out its power. However, it had been inconvenient for them to take it out to experience it, so they couldn't wait to see just how powerful Mei Sha's Spirit Artifact was.
"Alright."
Mei Sha was so excited that she quickly cut her finger with the short sword. Her blood dripped onto the short sword, and she quickly established a mental connection with it. She injected her inner force into the short sword, and the short sword shone brightly. With a casual slash, it actually left a deep mark on the ground.
Mei Sha's eyes suddenly widened, and she murmured to herself in disbelief, "It's really a Spirit Tool, and a Spirit Tool that has a mental connection. I estimate that it's at least a High Grade Spirit Tool."
"What?"
Everyone's eyes widened as they beat their chests and stamped their feet in regret. It was a spiritual artifact, and a supreme-grade one at that. Why weren't they the first to join?
"I'll be the second to join."
Du Wa regretted his decision so much that his intestines turned green. He secretly cursed himself for being so indecisive that he had missed a good opportunity to obtain a supreme-grade spirit weapon.
In fact, when he saw that Meisha's lifespan had increased, he had already decided to join. That was because he and Meisha were the same kind of people. With blood as a curse, their lifespans were worrying. It was just that he was much younger than Meisha, so he didn't have to worry about his lifespan.
It was just that his personality had always been like this. He didn't have any opinions of his own and liked to follow the crowd. Therefore, when the others didn't express their opinions, he definitely wouldn't easily express his opinion. That was why he missed the reward of being the first to join.
Now, no matter what, he couldn't miss the second chance to join. Even though he didn't have much hope of obtaining a Spirit Tool, he had already made up his mind to contribute more to the organization in the future and strive to obtain a Longevity Pill as a reward in case of emergency.
"I'm the third."
Abu Sindo regretted that he was a step too slow and shouted in panic.
"Me, I'm the fourth, I'll join too."
Dragon Granny Canaan Leaf hurriedly shouted.
"I'm fifth!"
"I'll join too."
"I'll join too."
"Me, and me, I'll join too."
…
The scene immediately turned into a bustling scene of registration. Without a doubt, everyone present chose to join the new organization. What a joke. Not only would there be Longevity Pills, there would also be a Spirit Tool as a reward. Anyone who didn't join would be a fool.
"Good. Since everyone has chosen to join, I'll say the ugly words first. In the future, if anyone dares to disrespect or betray Young Master, don't blame me for being ruthless."
The tattoo on Heavenly Venerate Magical Beast's face squirmed as his expression changed. It looked incomparably ferocious, causing everyone to keep quiet out of fear.
"Rest assured, Lord Heavenly Venerate. Since we've chosen to join, we naturally won't go back on our words, nor will we do anything to betray Young Master. Otherwise, even if you and Lord Ice Bear don't make a move, I, Meisha, will be the first to not let him off."
Meisha had obtained the Longevity Pill and the Spirit Tool, becoming the biggest beneficiary. She was in high spirits and was the first to express her loyalty.
"Rest assured, since we've made the decision, we definitely won't do anything to betray Young Master."
"Yes, Lords, rest assured, we will do our best to do things. Whoever dares to betray Young Master, we will definitely attack him together and kill his nine generations."
"I swear, if I betray Young Master in this life, I will be struck by lightning and die a horrible death."
…
With Meisha's declaration, everyone began to show their loyalty by patting their chests.
Heavenly Venerate Magical Beast smiled with satisfaction. "Very good. Everyone, count how many people there are. Young Master has a greeting gift for you."
"A greeting gift? What greeting gift? Is it a Spirit Tool? "
"In your dreams. Spirit Tools are not cabbages. How can there be so many of them? I guess it might be an Longevity Pill."
"Humph, the elixirs are not so easy to refine, okay? Every elixir of the Holy Medical Family can be sold at an astronomical price, and they are not very effective. They can't even use all the really good elixirs themselves." "That's right.
"That's true. No matter how generous Young Master is, he can't give us Longevity Pills and Spirit Tools as greeting gifts."
…
Everyone was talking about it and secretly looking forward to what kind of greeting gift it would be. But they did not delay the count at all. Soon, the number of people was counted.
The strength of their disciples was very weak. After experiencing the attack of the ant colony and the annihilation of the domain, they were basically all dead. Those who survived were either the leaders of small forces or the top experts of their sects.
There were originally over a thousand people in the alliance, but now, there were less than 200 people left. If the Magical Beast Heavenly Venerate and the Ice Bear Emperor were not included, there were a total of 178 survivors.
"Very good. From now on, the 180 people here are members of the new organization. The Ice Bear Emperor and I are the deputy leaders of this organization. You will be divided into Hall Chiefs according to your regions. As for the specific division, we will discuss it in detail after the Warriors' Assembly is over and Young Master has drawn up a constitution."
Heavenly Venerate Magical Beast nodded with satisfaction. Although the number of people was a little small, they were all solid elites. They all had a huge network of connections in their respective countries. Although there were some areas where the forces' regions overlapped, this was not a big problem. With them as the foundation, they could gradually absorb other forces.
Seeing everyone looking at him eagerly, Heavenly Venerate Magical Beast could not help but laugh inwardly. "Alright, everyone line up and come receive Young Master's greeting gift."
As he spoke, he took out a translucent object and distributed it to everyone.
"What is this? Why does it look like disposable underwear?"
"Yeah, it feels so thin. If it wasn't for the fact that there's no moisture on it, I would have thought it was a moisturizing mask."
"What is this?"
…
Everyone held the strange object in their hands, their faces full of confusion. They did not know what it was.
"Drip a drop of blood on it and you will know what it is."
Heavenly Venerate Magical Beast had a reserved smile on his face. In his heart, he marveled at Young Master's wealth. He had actually given everyone a spiritual armor as a greeting gift. Even if it was just a close-fitting inner armor that protected the vital parts of the upper body, it was enough to shock the world.
Hearing this, everyone's eyes lit up. Something that could be dripped with blood to recognize its owner was definitely something good. Immediately, they cut their fingers and dripped their blood on it, wanting to know what it was as soon as possible.
"Spiritual armor, it's actually a protective spiritual armor!"
Abu Sindo was the fastest to react and shouted excitedly.
"It's true, it's actually a protective spiritual armor. Moreover, it's a protective spiritual armor that even swords and sabers can't damage."
"Oh my god, I can't believe it. It's actually a spiritual armor. Long live Young Master."
"Young Master is really too good to us. This is a spiritual armor. It's rare even in the ancient martial arts world of the Divine Prefecture."
"That's right, becoming Young Master's subordinate was the wisest decision I've made in my life. Just the greeting gift alone is a spiritual armor. If I make contributions to the organization in the future, what kind of rewards will I receive? Just thinking about it makes me eager to contribute to the organization."
"Me too. I've never seen such an amazing spiritual armor. It can even fuse with the cells of the body when worn. Its defensive power is astonishing. I reckon that even if a spiritual weapon slashed me, it might not be able to hurt me."
"Young Master is really generous. A greeting gift is a spiritual armor. Although there are people in the martial arts world who know how to make spiritual armor, they are all crudely made hard armor. I've never seen this kind of invisible soft armor before."
"That's right. This kind of invisible soft armor is comfortable and can be worn 24 hours a day. We don't even need to take it off when we sleep. We won't have to be afraid of assassins at all. Who knows, it might even save our lives at a critical moment."
…
After everyone put on the spiritual armor, their faces were brimming with excitement. Although this spiritual armor couldn't protect the whole body, it protected the most important parts of their upper body, which greatly increased their survival rate. As long as they didn't have their heads smashed, they basically wouldn't have to worry about their lives.
One had to know that Spirit Armor was even rarer than Spirit Weapons and even more difficult to refine. In the modern era, the number of Weapon Refiners who could refine Spirit Weapons could be counted on one's fingers. Those who could refine Spirit Armors were even rarer.
Occasionally, there were refiners who made spiritual armor and put it on auction. It would inevitably attract countless people to buy it at sky-high prices. Because spiritual armor was defensive, it was a magic weapon that could save one's life at a critical moment. Although spiritual weapons were also valuable, their importance couldn't be compared with spiritual armor at all. Their prices were also worlds apart.
To make the most intuitive example, the price of a low-grade spiritual armor would never be lower than the price of a middle-grade spiritual weapon. Sometimes, it could even be auctioned at the price of a high-grade spiritual weapon. This showed the rarity of spiritual armor.
That kind of spiritual armor was still hard armor in the conventional sense. It was like a tortoise shell when worn, which was neither beautiful nor comfortable, and had no privacy. It was not as comfortable as the soft spiritual armor made by Ding Ning. It was like his own skin. He didn't even need to take it off when he slept, which greatly enhanced his own safety.
