Weeds Among the Four Sects
"The Huan Continent..."
Lost in thought, Gansha swallowed hard. Even the usually warlike Qian Cha couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine. His lips trembled as he spoke:
"Is the continent the Palace Master is referring to that has been occupied by the Extraterrestrial Evil race?"
The Great Thousand World is vast and boundless, with many continents unknown. Apart from a few beings who have a detailed understanding of the Great Thousand World, almost no one can name all the continents.
However, there is also a group of mainlanders whose fame may not be widely known, but once they reach a certain level, they become essential courses.
The Huan Continent is just such a place.
As a border region between the Great Thousand World and the Extraterrestrial Evil race, just like the Saint Abyss Continent, it is no stranger to anyone who has even a slight understanding of the Extraterrestrial Evil race.
The Huan Continent has always been a thorn in the side of the powerful beings in the Great Thousand World. The Extraterrestrial Evil race there are so glaring and repulsive.
However, for many years, the Great Thousand World has been on the defensive, and the number of strong individuals is severely insufficient. For the sake of the overall situation, this situation has been left unresolved until now.
However, when the people of Lingtian heard that their new leader wanted to attack the Huan Continent, their first reaction was to shrink back.
This demonstrates just how deeply ingrained the fear instilled by the Extraterrestrial Evil race is.
"What, are you all scared?"
Xiao Han wore a mocking smile, causing many people to blush.
Fear should not be a sign of such emotion on the faces of these high-ranking officials, especially when facing their sworn enemies.
"Palace Master, if I remember correctly, the Huan Continent is guarded by a Demon Emperor-level expert from the Blade Demon Race, isn't it?"
Compared to others, Tai Yun's reasons were quite compelling.
"Our strength seems somewhat insufficient!"
In short, that's the gist of it. It's not that we're afraid to go, but that the enemy is too powerful.
"The Huan Continent is ruled by Demon Emperor..."
Xiao Han's expression grew even colder. "Do we perhaps lack Heavenly Supreme?"
At that moment, Ice Emperor revealed a trace of his aura, stirring up an ice storm in the hall, causing everyone to shiver, whether from the cold or fear, it was hard to tell.
Xiao Han is still releasing more.
"The Ten Thousand Arrays Heavenly Domain and earth are separated, the Absolute Shadow Killing Array devours the souls of the living, the Death Forbidden Ground Thousand Illusion Realm, and the Netherworld Blood Road Sky Reaching Abyss."
"These sects are renowned figures throughout the entire world!"
"Could it be that even the combined power of the Four Sects cannot stop a single Nether Demon Emperor?"
The Four Sect Sect Masters were increasingly embarrassed. They had once been so proud of the strength and prestige of their trump cards, but now...
I regret it so much!
However, it is impossible to make them belittle themselves. The Four Sects Grand Array are the pride and backbone of the sect since its founding, and they must not be insulted!
"Reporting to the Palace Master, it seems that the Profound Demon Emperor exists on the Huan Continent?"
Finally...
Everyone's spirits lifted. That's right, they could only deal with the Nether Demon Emperor. The Profound Demon Emperor was a powerful figure comparable to Immortal Grade Heavenly Supreme. We, with our meager strength, should just give up.
However...
"Rest assured."
Xiao Han smiled coldly.
"That Profound Demon Emperor is to be dealt with by me and the Supreme Elder."
"Now you should make your stance clear."
"To go or not to go!"
After he finished speaking, everyone looked embarrassed and fell silent.
"Then, Palace Master, are we just going to abandon our foundation on the Lingtian Continent like this?"
Yang Ling and the others asked unwillingly.
Whether the Huan Continent project will succeed or not remains to be seen, and even if it does, it's not something that can be accomplished with just a few words.
The Four Sects have been developing on the Lingtian Continent for thousands of years, like a great tree, rooted here, with branches and leaves spreading out.
If Xiao Han forces them to relocate to the Huan Continent, their comfortable lives will be gone, and they will even have to live a precarious existence. At least half of the disciples will quit or even rebel.
"Of course not." Xiao Han shook his head slightly.
"This trip to the Huan Continent is purely voluntary. We cannot abandon our base on the Lingtian Continent for the time being, and it will remain an important sphere of influence for us in the future."
"We don't object to those who wish to stay."
Upon hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the Palace Master hadn't lost his mind, and they could now give their disciples Elder a proper explanation.
Seeing the expressions on everyone's faces, Xiao Han's lips curled into a strange smile, and then his tone changed...
"However, going to the Huan Continent is indeed a tough task, and we certainly can't let those people suffer."
Oh no! We've fallen for the Palace Master's treacherous scheme!
The others felt a jolt of unease, then listened intently, eager to understand what the Palace Master's sweet talk was all about.
"You should all remember that Han said he would teach the New formation method to the new forces."
He's here! He's here!
Everyone's breathing became heavy; this was the key reason why they were willing to put aside their prejudices and join Xiao Han's ranks!
Then a chill ran down their spines. Could it be that the Palace Master was planning to renege on his promise and use this to coerce them into going to the Huan Continent?
Noticing the sudden seriousness in the expressions of those below, Xiao Han smiled slightly and reassured them:
"Rest assured, everyone. I am not the kind of person who goes back on his word. All the new formation methods below the Intermediate Grandmaster are open to you. I will not refuse."
"However..."
"Things that come for free are never appreciated."
Xiao Han stroked his chin, as if murmuring:
"Spirit Array below the Grandmaster are not particularly valuable, so opening them all up is not a bad idea."
"But those above the Grandmaster shouldn't be sold off cheaply; a standard should be set."
"Smack!"
A loud clap of applause echoed through the hall, lingering for a long time. Xiao Han looked as if he had just realized something.
"How about this, let's judge the qualifications for those above the Grandmaster level based on the Demon Subjugator rank of the Great Thousand Palace."
"Low-level, intermediate-level, and Advanced Demon Subjugator correspond to the three realms of Grandmaster."
"How?"
Xiao Han finished explaining his arrangements to himself, and the people in the audience were practically rolling their eyes.
They realized that these rules were aimed at high-level combatants above the Elder.
For the Elder, these Spirit Array Masters, low-level Spirit Array could be created with a single thought, so there was no difference between learning them and not learning them. What they needed was the method of setting up Grandmaster- level Spirit Array, but Xiao Han had blocked that point, and they couldn't say anything about it.
Ice Emperor, watching from the sidelines, was secretly laughing. Damn, that's awful!
This is an obvious trap; the Elder have no choice but to jump in, even if they rebel, not many disciples would be willing to follow them.
"Your Palace Master is wise!"
Yang Ling and the others gritted their teeth, endured the humiliation, and accepted the proposal.
Damn! It's just the Demon Subjugator level, right?
With their strength and status Spirit Array Master, they can prepare in advance, set up Spirit Array, and upgrade them in no time with just one large-scale battle.
"And one more thing to remind everyone," Xiao Han said again.
What kind of trouble are they causing now? Everyone else is about to go crazy.
"The first disciple to advance to the Advanced Demon Subjugator will receive my Grandmaster breakthrough experience!"
Xiao Han casually dropped a bombshell in the crowd, causing an uproar.
Everyone, including the Four Sect Sect Masters, was stunned by this sudden surprise.
What is the purpose of cultivation? Isn't it precisely to break through and advance in rank?
The Four Sects combined have no fewer than two dozen high-level Spirit Array Master, some of whom have remained at this level for hundreds or even thousands of years, never even touching the threshold, let alone breaking through.
The value of a Great Spirit Array Master is...
In the past, even if the entire sect's wealth were exchanged for it, no one would have even batted an eye.
But now it's right in front of them...
Under the astonished gazes of Ice Emperor, everyone went mad.
"It is our inescapable duty to fight against the Extraterrestrial Evil race!"
"Defeat the Evil Clan and reclaim our territory!"
"Long live Langya Heavenly Palace!"
"The Palace Master is wise! Long live the Palace Master!"
