Putting the Martial Prefecture in Order, Martial Way Avatar
On the Martial Sect Plaza.
Xu Jingwu arrived and said directly, "Zhao Tai, Bai Qi."
The two men stepped out from the crowd, clasped their hands in greeting, and said, "Sect Master."
"In a few days, you will accompany me to recruit Martial Artist. Once Qi Quan, my Martial Sect will officially open."
"Sect Master, those Devil Cultivator forces..."
"... Zhao Tai asked with concern.
"The negotiations have been completed. The vast territory will be the domain of my Martial Sect, and I, the sect leader, intend to name it Heavenly Martial Prefecture."
If you want to continue expanding, you need to expand on your own.
However, ten thousand miles is enough for my Martial Sect's early development.
After all, we don't have enough strong individuals to guard it.
Bai Qi asked, "Sect Master, the Demonic Path forces are most adept at breaking contracts; we must be careful."
Xu Jingwu smiled. "That's something I've naturally considered."
One of the agreements is that no Three Houses or more top-tier forces may be gathered to besiege Heavenly Martial Prefecture.
This is overseen by the four major powers.
Those who disobey will be destroyed by the four overlords together with my Martial Sect.
"Good idea. The overlord checks and balances the top forces. The overlord of the Blackwater Domain seems to control everything."
However, it is still feared by many top-tier forces.
If they wantonly annihilate top forces, then the top sects and Aristocratic Clan will also unite.
If a major war breaks out between them, the Southern Heaven Domain might launch an attack.
Therefore, the strongest forces usually keep a low profile and try to avoid major battles.
Xu Jingwu was slightly surprised, "Bai Qi, how do you know so much about this?"
Bai Qi clasped his hands and said, "To be honest, Sect Master, my Bai Household was once Demonic Path Nascent Soul Aristocratic Clan that was no weaker than the Kang Household hundreds of years ago."
Unfortunately, with the passing of the Ancestor, no new Nascent Soul was born, which led to its being swallowed up by surrounding forces.
Fortunately, the Lineage had made prior arrangements and preserved a considerable number of seeds.
But it was merely a matter of prolonging its existence.
"Sect Master, please don't be offended. This disciple did not mean to conceal anything."
"It's alright. As long as you remain loyal to the Martial Sect, the sect will not mistreat you. In fact, one day you may even be able to rebuild the Bai Household."
A sect can also provide you with protection.
But if you betray them, no matter where you run, you'll find nowhere to go.
"Disciple understands, thank you, Sect Master!"
Bai Qi kowtowed to express his gratitude.
Get up.
Zhao Tai said, "No wonder Junior Brother Martial Way Talent; he must have quite a background."
The probability of a genius emerging from the Nascent Soul Aristocratic Clan is far higher than that of an ordinary Rogue Cultivator.
"Senior brother, please stop making fun of your junior brother. The Bai Household is long gone."
I don't even know if any of my clansmen are still alive.
"Practice diligently; you are the most promising Martial Way among us to reach the Origin Core Realm."
"Go and prepare properly."
"Yes."
Xu Jingwu turned and flew towards the main hall atop the Main Peak.
"There are too few Martial Sect experts; I can't possibly handle everything on my own. If I had an Avatar, that would be perfect."
Xu Jingwu entered the Daoist Canon Pavilion in the Cave-Heaven to search for information about Avatar and Secret Method.
More than half an hour later.
"When a cultivator in the Nascent Soul Realm of the Immortal Way gains sufficient control over their Law Power, they can create Magic Power Avatar."
I wonder if Martial Artist's Origin Power would work.
Further research is needed.
However, such Avatar are too weak to exist for long.
It can only be used as a one-time life-saving trump card for disciples.
The Special Avatar Secret Method is a method of Immortal Way cultivation, which Martial Artist naturally cannot practice and must therefore need to be modified.
The Second True Self uses the Nascent Soul body as material and can possess combat power equivalent to the original True Form.
However, for those beings with special Nascent Soul, or for those like me with abnormal Physical Body, most of their Divine Ability are naturally developed by their Physical Body.
Even if it is successfully refined, it will not reach the combat power of my original self.
The Second True Self possesses combat power at the same Cultivation Realm, and can naturally unleash the Divine Ability and Talent it comprehends.
However, Physical Body Divine Ability are unique; Non-Self make them my own, they should still be able to exert their power without relying on the Physical Body.
"Ultimately, it's Secret Method created by Cultivator."
Xu Jingwu sighed softly.
However, the method of refining the "Second True Self" gave him some inspiration.
Martial Artist's Origin Embryo is considered the best Avatar vessel, and it is inherently connected to their own Divine Soul.
A complete refining is not feasible, but if a portion is split off and nurtured into Second Origin Embryo.
Using it as the basis for Avatar, the resulting Avatar may be able to perform Physical Body Divine Ability and also utilize its own innate Innate Divine Ability.
Even if their Physical Body is inferior to the original, they can still possess more than half of the original's combat power.
For Xu Jingwu, even without Fourth-Tier Middle Stage Physical Body, half of his combat power would be enough to rival that of Great Cultivator.
Moreover, the Physical Body of the Avatar can also be continuously improved, just like the Avatar of the demon lords in the Death Sand Sea.
It took thousands of years of cultivation for them to gradually reach the Fourth-Tier Late Stage, or even the peak.
Certainly.
This Secret Method of the "Second Origin Embryo" is not so easy.
It's difficult to predict how much trauma the splitting of a single part of the Origin Embryo would cause to oneself.
Moreover, he was the only one in the world who possessed the Origin Embryo, so Xu Jingwu could only use himself as a test subject.
The saying "One generation plants the trees, another enjoys the shade" perfectly illustrates this point.
The creation of many Secret Method is fraught with danger, and some may even involve testing oneself.
It's also possible to have someone else try it.
For example, "The Second True Self" is clearly the latter.
The creators tested countless people's Nascent Soul before finally perfecting it.
"Let's take it slow."
Three days later.
Xu Jingwu released his Spell Boat, propelled by Spirit Stone, and headed to the surrounding populated areas to recruit disciples.
Within the territory of every Demonic Path force, there are a large number of mortals, who are the foundation of the Demonic Path and also the readily available talent.
As long as it's not a one-time mass death, it's a sustainable resource.
Some people are numb and simply abide by the rules set by the rulers of the territory.
With a bit of luck, one can live a stable life.
Some might want to rebel, but lacking the strength, their fate is often tragic.
It has even become a beacon for some Demonic Path forces to attract those who are unwilling to submit.
Wait until enough people have gathered, then wipe them out all at once, and you can have peace for more than ten years.
Until the Fire Seed of resistance rekindled.
Of course, many more joined in, becoming the lackeys of the Devil Dao Sect and aristocratic Aristocratic Clan.
They are responsible for managing and oppressing the people at the very bottom of society.
Fen River Village.
The Spell Boat hovered above the village, and the enormous commotion instantly attracted the attention of everyone in the village.
"Everyone, assemble at the village Plaza." Zhao Tai's voice boomed like a bell, carrying for miles around.
A village is generally only about a mile in size.
The villagers were used to being oppressed, and when they saw Spell Boat, their eyes were filled with fear.
But they dared not resist, and every household went to the village Plaza.
The Plaza is not large.
In no time, the place was packed with people.
Zhao Tai, Bai Qi, and seven or eight other disciples moved to the front, while Xu Jingwu did not appear.
"Who's in charge of the village? Come out."
"You're a despicable person!"
A middle-aged, obese man with a bloated belly emerged from the crowd.
His face was beaming with smiles as he bowed and clasped his hands in greeting, saying, "This esteemed envoy, may I ask where you come from?"
Fen River Village was a village under the jurisdiction of the Zheng Household.
If they're coming to collect "blood rent," shouldn't they inform the Zheng Household first, otherwise it could lead to a misunderstanding?
"So you're the so-called dog who manages Fen River Village for the Zheng Household."
"Fellow Daoist, why speak so harshly? I have, after all, entered the realm of cultivators."
We are kindred spirits.
"Fellow practitioners? Heh, sorry, we are not cultivators!"
Rather, they are Martial Artist!
"Martial Artist?!" The middle-aged fat man's face stiffened, and he immediately retorted angrily, "They're nothing but a bunch of Blood Sustenance."
How dare you be so arrogant!
If the Zheng Household finds out, they will surely drain your Essence Blood and turn your flesh and blood into nourishment for cultivation.
I advise you to leave obediently, otherwise...
Before he could finish speaking...
A fist slammed into his face.
His bulky body was lifted off the ground and flew several feet away.
It was Bai Qi who made the move.
He didn't stop there; instead, he took a few steps forward and crushed his limbs with one foot.
The bloody scene, along with the middle-aged fat man's screams, immediately terrified the villagers, who all retreated.
"From then on, the area within a radius of ten thousand miles became the Heavenly Martial Prefecture. This place was no longer the territory of the Kang Household, nor was it ruled by Demonic Path cultivators."
Anyone who dares to disobey the orders of my Martial Sect shall die!
Then, he swept his gaze across the villagers, saying, "The world has changed. Today, you can vent your grievances and settle your scores."
Everyone looked at the middle-aged fat man's miserable appearance, but still no one dared to step forward.
Until a boy of eight or nine years old picked up a pebble from the ground and threw it at the middle-aged fat man, saying, "I want to avenge my sister!" Huya!
Upon seeing this, the farmer beside him changed his expression drastically, immediately grabbed him, and shielded him behind him.
Then he knelt down, his body trembling.
"Please spare my life, Your Majesty! I'd be willing to serve you like a slave for my son!"
Even though everyone present witnessed Bai Qi punishing the middle-aged fat man, not one of them felt grateful to him.
It's clear they didn't believe the other party was there to help them at all.
Generation after generation, no matter how the cultivation factions fought, they were always the ones being ruled.
Bai Qi beckoned to the kid named Huya, "Come here quickly."
Huya hesitated for a moment, then stepped out from behind his father.
The middle-aged man dared not stop him any longer.
"You want to avenge your sister?"
"Yes!" Huya said, "My older sister sold herself to that bastard so that my father and I could live."
But only half a month later, they returned the elder sister's body.
I dream of avenging my sister!
"Revenge isn't just talk; it takes strength, it takes fists."
Bai Qi asked, "Do you want to become stronger?"
"I think!"
"Then you must join our Martial Sect. The Martial Sect is Martial Way Sect founded by our sect leader."
Martial Way can be practiced even by ordinary people.
As long as one is willing to endure hardship, one can at least be on par with a cultivator in the Early Stage of Qi Refining.
That means he's about the same strength as that fat guy.
If he had Talent, he might even be able to wipe out the Zheng Household he mentioned with a flick of his wrist.
"Really? Then I want to join!" Huya said.
"Alright, then put a drop of blood on this crystal."
Bai Qi took out the Martial Way Blood Crystal, which was refined by Xu Jingwu and was specially used to sense a person's Blood Qi.
The Blood Qi of an average adult is approximately ten.
However, considering nutrition and diet, many people cannot achieve this.
Therefore, Blood Qi value is not an important criterion for recruitment.
Some people are just born with abundant Qi and Blood, far exceeding that of ordinary people, and are as strong as an ox.
In order not to miss out on such Martial Way talents, a Blood Qi and qi test was added.
Blood Qi levels can gradually increase as long as you eat enough and exercise.
With Martial Way Cultivation Method, the increase in the upper limit of Blood Qi will be even more significant.
Blood dripped from the Huya's fang, and a six appeared on the Martial Way Blood Crystal.
"Next, we'll test your Root Bone. It might sting a little, so please bear with it."
"Yes."
Bai Qi grabbed his wrist and sent a wisp of True Qi into his body, circulating it throughout his entire being.
A short while later.
Bai Qi opened his eyes and said, "Inferior Root Bone."
Is this really that bad?
"Not really. Below the Inferior Root Bone, there is also False Root Bone. Most people in the world have False Root Bone."
Even so, as I said before, as long as you can endure hardship, you can reach a level comparable to Ordinary Cultivator.
As for your Inferior Root Bone, surpassing that fat guy in the future won't be difficult."
His Huya eyes were full of hope.
Zhao Tai then stepped forward and said, "Everyone, please listen to me. My Heavenly Martial Prefecture is not a sect founded by Devil Cultivator."
My Martial Sect follows the Martial Way.
Starting today, we will gradually eliminate the Devil Cultivator cultivators within Heavenly Martial Prefecture.
You can live your lives in peace.
In addition, my Martial Sect will also establish Martial Hall in various parts of Heavenly Martial Prefecture in the future.
The Martial Hall is recruiting disciples; anyone can take the test.
If you pass, you can enter the Martial Hall.
Those with exceptional talent in the Martial Hall can enter the Martial Sect and receive a more profound Martial Way inheritance.
In addition to recruiting and training disciples, the Martial Hall is also responsible for maintaining order in the surrounding area.
According to our sect leader's idea, Heavenly Martial Prefecture will be divided into many counties, and below the counties will be villages.
The Martial Hall was established in the county.
If any Devil Cultivator harm lives, they can capture and kill them.
"Our Martial Sect Master is a top expert comparable to the Blackwater Domain; ordinary forces would never dare to easily invade us."
Listening to Zhao Tai's beautiful vision.
One villager couldn't help but ask, "Is this true? Are we really safe now?"
"Absolute safety is impossible. Even without the intervention of cultivators, mortals still engage in feuds and killings."
But this situation will never happen again.
What about "blood rent"?
"Naturally, there will be no more of that. Anyone who collects 'blood rent' is going against my Martial Sect."
You only need to focus on cultivating the wasteland, farming, and paying your share of Spirit Rice once a year.
As for the Spirit Rice, the Martial Sect will send someone to distribute them to you later.
An elderly man, leaning on a cane and hunched over, stepped forward. "Your Excellency, is everything you said true?"
"Naturally, Martial Artist cultivation is different from Devil Cultivator; there is no shortcut, and one must rely entirely on one's own arduous practice."
Fighting against Demon Beast, fighting against cultivators.
They forged a path to climb higher amidst the fierce battles.
"I trust the envoy, and I thank Martial Sect for his mercy in rescuing us from this sea of suffering!"
The old man knelt down, tears streaming down his face.
Everyone in Fen River Village knelt down and kowtowed in gratitude.
"Please rise, everyone. If you wish to express your gratitude, please thank the Sect Master of the Martial Sect, Tianwu True Lord."
We are weak and powerless. Without the Sect Master, we would only Blood Sustenance Devil Cultivator Aristocratic Clan and sects.
However, while my Martial Sect can protect the peace of this region, how you live your lives is still up to you.
But as long as you're willing to work hard, things won't get any worse than they are now!
Zhao Tai.
"Thank you Martial Sect!"
"Thank Tianwu True Lord!"
"Now, settle your scores and grievances, turn the page on this chapter, and begin a new life," Bai Qi said.
His purpose was also to provoke their fighting spirit.
If they don't change their servile nature, they will never stand up.
"The envoy is right. If we don't kill him, we'll never be able to start a new life!"
Kill him!
Kill him!
Kill him!
A group of farmers brutally beat the middle-aged fat man, whom they regarded as an ant, with Shitou or sticks until he was covered in blood and flesh.
The matter is settled.
Some covered their faces and wept, some wailed, and some comforted their parents, wives, and young children.
The will of the people is the power of their desires.
Unfortunately, Martial Artist do not cultivate their Fortune or their willpower, so it has little effect.
After half an incense stick's time.
Fen River Village began formally testing the Qi and Blood, and Root Bone of eligible individuals.
Most are under ten years old, and at most no more than fifteen years old.
Those who pass the test will leave with Bai Qi and the others.
Although Martial Way can be practiced by everyone, the Martial Sect will ultimately become a dominant force in the Blackwater Domain.
Furthermore, there are too few skilled Martial Artist at present, so it is natural to prioritize talent.
But.
Bai Qi and his group not only tested Martial Way Root Bone, but also Immortal Way potential.
The Xu Household primarily Immortal Way Daoist immortality, while also incorporating Martial Way into their practices.
The Martial Sect focuses on martial arts, with the paths of Martial Way and demonism as secondary.
With the Xu Household quietly supporting them, there's no need to worry about them lacking suitable Cultivation Method.
In conclusion
Martial Sect is now using every means to strengthen himself.
As for whether the Martial Sect will turn against the Immortal and Demonic Paths in the Martial Sect future, that's a matter for the future.
We can just cut it off.
After all, by then, the Martial Sect must have become a behemoth.
Leaving Fen River Village.
Bai Qi and his group headed to their next destination.
On the deck of the Spell Boat.
Everything about them was observed by Xu Jingwu.
"You two did the right thing. Most of them have been enslaved for too long and are like walking corpses."
If you want them to stand up, you must first revive their spirits.
Only then will they resemble a human being.
Keep it up.
In the early stages of the Heavenly Martial Prefecture's construction, a strict approach is acceptable, but its future must adapt to changing circumstances.
"Yes, Sect Master."
One and a half months.
They traveled throughout the entire Heavenly Martial Prefecture.
It's normal for ordinary mortals not to have heard of the names of the Martial Sect and Tianwu True Lord, but with the destruction of the Black Suspension Market District...
Many cultivators dispersed.
The news quickly spread among the Devil Cultivators of Heavenly Martial Prefecture.
But.
They all had a low opinion of the Martial Sect, believing it would be destroyed by the top forces in the Blackwater Domain.
It wasn't until the Martial Sect's Spell Boat arrived above their sect and Lineage that he forcefully told them that from then on, only the Martial Sect's rules would be respected within a radius of ten thousand miles.
They understand.
From that moment on, the sky above us changed.
However, Xu Jingwu did not leave them no way out.
All Devil Cultivator forces can relocate away from Heavenly Martial Prefecture by handing over 90% of their resources.
Martial Sect did not pursue the matter.
However, if they choose to stay, they must hand over 50% of their Spirit Stone and materials each year, and abide by all the rules established by the Martial Sect.
Article 1: Cultivators are prohibited from killing indiscriminately, including mortals and Martial Artist.
This was unbearable for the vast majority of Devil Cultivator.
In the Hei Ming Sect.
The Golden Core Demonic Cultivator realized that Bai Qi and his group were merely Tiger Might. He then Divine Sense to probe the Spell Boat but found no powerful Martial Artist.
He immediately sneered, "You Blood Sustenance dare to order my Hei Ming Sect around?"
Die, Elder!
Bai Qi and the others remained motionless despite the pressure from the Golden Core.
Even as the Demonic Palm, several feet long, came crashing down, he did not retreat.
Just as the Demonic Palm was about to touch them, a wisp of Qi and Blood shot out from the Spell Boat.
The Demonic Palm, imbued with Divine Ability power, was instantly crushed.
"Since the Hei Ming Sect is not convinced, then it should cease to exist."
A hundred-zhang-tall Martial Ancestor Phantom appeared.
An oppressive aura enveloped the entire Hei Ming Sect.
Those cultivators below the Golden Core stage were unable to withstand this pressure and their Blood Qi exploded one after another.
As for the Golden Core...
Although they weren't about to have their internal Qi and Blood explode, they were still suppressed by the oppressive aura to the point of being unable to move.
Strands of Qi and Blood converge to form the plane blade.
"Within the territory of Heavenly Martial Prefecture, my Martial Sect is the law. Those who disobey will be slain!"
The words had barely left his mouth.
The guillotine blades fell from the sky again and again.
Each time, it severed the head of a Golden Core cultivator.
Less than twenty breaths.
More than a dozen Golden Core of the Hei Ming Sect, including the sect leader who Peak Golden Core, all perished.
The Hei Ming Sect Master burned his Lifespan to break free from the Martial Ancestor's oppressive aura, only to have a finger tens of feet long descend from the sky.
They crushed it into Blood Mist.
"What a pity, the nourishment for a Peak Golden Core cultivator," Xu Jingwu thought to himself.
Xu Jingwu and his group took away all the usable resources of the Hei Ming Sect, including the Spirit Vein.
At last.
He even condensed a golden palm hundreds of feet in size, making the Hei Ming Sect a thing of the past.
This vast territory is home to more than ten Golden Core factions.
Apart from the Hei Ming Sect, which was destroyed, all the others chose to leave.
The same applies to most Foundation Establishment Clan.
Only a very small number remained.
Even many Rogue Cultivator chose to leave Heavenly Martial Prefecture.
If the land of the Foundation Establishment Clan is suitable for building Martial Hall, its Spirit Vein will not be drained.
The remaining Spirit Vein were all gathered together, awaiting further arrangements.
More than half a month.
The name of the Martial Sect spread throughout Heavenly Martial Prefecture.
The Devil Cultivator were almost completely wiped out, leaving only a handful.
Xu Jingwu spared their lives to set an example for the other Blackwater Domain forces.
But he also understood.
Doing so will ultimately have hidden dangers.
Martial Sect on his own, and before he had enough manpower, Heavenly Martial Prefecture was practically riddled with holes.
If some people run in and cause trouble, such as massacring several villages, it won't take much effort at all.
It might take Martial Sect several days or even longer to find out.
Martial Sect had many communication talismans.
However, it is difficult for ordinary mortals to activate.
With a headache, Xu Jingwu finally entered the Cave-Heaven to find Xu Chuan.
Upon entering, he discovered that Xu Chuan's Ghost Cultivator Avatar was already waiting for him.
"Ancestor, you were waiting for me all this time?"
"I know the situation in the Blackwater Domain very well. It's too difficult for you to turn things around on the Martial Sect own."
No one but me can help you.
"Ancestor, do you intend to personally assist me?"
Xu Jingwu only wanted a solution, but he never expected Xu Chuan to get involved personally.
"Won't this interfere with your cultivation, Ancestor?"
"It's just an Avatar. Once the Avatar Secret Method is perfected, I can condense five more."
At that time, you may need a drop of your Essence Blood to condense your Martial Way Avatar.
This would also allow him to rightfully take charge of the Martial Sect.
"What are your plans, Ancestor?"
"I will not show myself; I will only be responsible for stopping the Devil Cultivator come to cause trouble, based on my cultivation in the Heavenly Secrets."
Even Nascent Soul cannot escape my calculations.
"Thank you, Ancestor." Xu Jingwu bowed and expressed his gratitude.
"I've got nothing better to do anyway," Xu Chuan said with a faint smile.
The two then left the Cave-Heaven.
Xu Chuan soon left Tianwu Mountain and traveled throughout Heavenly Martial Prefecture.
Exploring the Red Dust and experiencing the myriad aspects of human life is also a way of comprehending the principles of heaven and earth.
In just three months.
Then, Foundation Establishment Devil Cultivator began to plot to infiltrate Heavenly Martial Prefecture for revenge.
He plans to launch an attack on the border.
He planned to first destroy a village to gauge the Martial Sect's reaction, then quickly leave after finishing his task.
Unfortunately, he had just arrived.
Xu Chuan's Ghost Cultivator Avatar was already waiting for him.
He was dressed in the clothes of an ordinary person, with his trousers rolled up, an old pipe hanging from his waist, and a hoe on his shoulder.
Upon seeing this, the Devil Cultivator scanned him with his Divine Sense and discovered that his aura was no different from that of an ordinary person. He immediately revealed a sinister smile.
"Hehehe, let's start with you!"
He rushed towards Xu Chuan, laughing wildly, "You're unlucky to run into me first!"
But don't worry, everyone in the village will go down with you.
You will not be alone.
Xu Chuan brandished a hoe, turning over the soil like an ordinary farmer, and said, "There's a reason why villains die from talking too much."
With one stroke of the hoe.
The Foundation Establishment Devil Cultivator blocked with his hands.
But the moment they made contact, an incomparably sharp Golden Radiance burst forth.
The Foundation Establishment Devil Cultivator was cleaved in two.
Xu Chuan pulled out his pipe and lit it.
Then crouch down and loot the corpse.
Afterwards, he shook his pipe, and a spark fell onto the corpse, instantly burning it to ashes.
With another flick of his sleeve, the wind blew, and he vanished without a trace.
Xu Chuan carried his hoe, occasionally taking a puff of smoke, and slowly walked away into the distance.
They had disappeared without us noticing.
They didn't realize the power targeting the Martial Sect at first, until a dozen or so people joined them.
From the lowest Qi Refining to the Golden Core, they have all vanished without a trace.
That's when they realized something was wrong.
But when they sent people in to investigate, they found out absolutely nothing.
Logically, if unrest is caused, it should be traceable.
But the calmer it was, the more terrified they became.
In the end, one by one they chose to give up.
And soon after.
Xu Chuan's "The Myriad Spirits Transformation Freedom Art" has finally come to a successful conclusion.
He took a drop of Xu Jingwu's Essence Blood and used it to create a Martial Way Avatar.
This Avatar is stationed under the command of the Martial Sect.
The Ghost Cultivator Avatar then went to "White Jade Capital" to take charge.
After the Martial Way Avatar was created, the Physical Body immediately approached the Fourth Tier.
His Qi and Blood flowed like a dragon, and he could even use several of Xu Jingwu's Physical Body Divine Ability.
As for Innate Divine Ability, they cannot be used.
After testing, the Martial Way Avatar, relying solely on Martial Way, is comparable to Nascent Soul Early Stage cultivator.
However, if one uses Immortal Way Divine Ability, one can rival Great Cultivator.
Similar to ordinary Avatar of Spirit Transformation cultivators, their Cultivation Realm is average, and they mainly rely on Top Divine Ability to fight beyond their level.
In the Plaza.
All the disciples of the Martial Sect gathered together.
Xu Jingwu and Xu Chuan walked out.
"His name is Tongshen, and he will henceforth be the Grand Elder our Martial Sect. You must all show him the same respect as we would our Sect Master."
"Disciple greets the Grand Elder of Tongshen!"
"Disciple greets the Grand Elder of Tongshen!"
"Disciple greets the Grand Elder of Tongshen!"
Thousands of disciples, both high and low, bowed in unison and shouted, their voices like thunder.
Two months later.
The Martial Sect invited all forces in the Blackwater Domain to come to the Martial Sect on the first day of the ninth month, three months later, to participate in the founding ceremony.
The news quickly spread to the major factions in the Blackwater Domain.
Heavenly Baleful Sect.
A sacred mountain cave abode.
An Escape Light landed in front of the cave abode.
This person was none other than the Seven-Kill True Lord.
"Senior Brother Tiansha," he said calmly.
What is it?
"On the first day of the ninth month, the Martial Sect will be formally established. What should our Heavenly Baleful Sect do?"
"Since you've already admitted it, then let's go. Does my Heavenly Baleful Sect fear a mere Martial Sect Grandmaster?"
"Junior brother understands, then I'll go myself?"
"No need, just send a Nascent Soul Middle Stage elder."
"Nascent Soul Middle Stage Xuan Sha?"
"He should be at a critical stage in breaking through the bottleneck in his Late Stage. If he's willing to take the trip, then he's naturally the most suitable candidate."
"Okay, I'll go ask later."
"Um."
"Senior brother, what are your thoughts on what Xu Chuan said?"
After a moment of silence within the cave abode, a voice echoed, "Next year, I will make a trip to Southern Heaven."
"Senior brother, are you really going? What Xu Chuan said doesn't sound like a lie to me."
Seven-Kill True Lord said, "After all, how could he know that Heavenly Feather True Lord would break through to the Spirit Transformation within a few years?"
This is considered top secret within the Ascension Gate.
Heavenly Feather True Lord will never tell anyone else.
"Perhaps, but it wouldn't hurt to go. If I could witness his breakthrough, it would be a good thing for me."
Even if I hadn't, it's been a long time since I've been to Southern Heaven.
This trip is a good opportunity to see the changes in Southern Heaven.
Moreover, Xu Chuan is someone I should definitely take a trip to Southern Heaven for.
"Since Senior Brother has made up his mind, Junior Brother will not stop you. However, you must be careful of Xu Chuan and the Xu Household."
Based solely on the power displayed by the Martial Sect, they already possess the potential to defeat a strong individual like you.
"That's why I'm even more determined to see with my own eyes how, in just three hundred years, a small Foundation Establishment Lesser Clan has grown into the Dominant Aristocratic Clan."
The Xu Household can truly be called legendary.
A short while later.
After leaving, Seven-Kill True Lord arrived at the cave abode on Xuan Sha Peak.
Xu Mo led it into the cave abode.
The main hall of the cave abode.
Xu Dewen walked out of the Cultivation Chamber and into the hall, smiling as he said, "Senior Brother Seven Kills, what brings you here?"
Seven Kills Sha laughed heartily, "Junior Brother Xuan Sha, I didn't disturb your seclusion, did I?"
"It's not time for Death-Seclusion Retreat yet, so there's no question of disturbing you."
"That's good."
"Senior brother, is there something you need from me? Just say it."
"On the first day of the ninth month, the Martial Sect will be officially established, and I would like to send you to represent the Heavenly Baleful Sect."
Are you free?
"Has an agreement been reached?"
"Victory was assured, but a miscalculation occurred Tianwu True Lord sent the news back to Southern Heaven ahead of time."
Please invite the Xu Household to come and lend their support.
Tianwu had done the Xu Household a great favor, and in order to repay this debt, the Xu Household sent out their strongest members.
"Are the strongest among them? Withered Glory True Lord and the Xu Household's Flood Dragon already here?"
Xu Dewen looked surprised.
"Everyone's here, except for Xu Deling and Ye Fan."
Seven-Kill True Lord sighed, "I don't know how they managed to break into the Blackwater Domain without attracting any attention."
Moreover, to appear at such a crucial moment, one must have arrived several days in advance.
"Could someone have leaked it?" Xu Dewen asked.
"It's possible. I once suspected it was the Joyous Union Sect, but their surprise when they saw the Xu Household members didn't seem unfounded."
Moreover, they had connections with the Xu Household, but not with Tianwu True Lord.
There's no need to send a special message just for the sake of the Martial Sect.
"So, senior brother, who do you think it is?"
Seven-Kill True Lord looked at Xu Dewen, "It's highly likely that it's not one of our forces."
If I'm not mistaken, the Xu Household should have already established an intelligence network in my Blackwater Domain.
Only in this way can the message be delivered to Southern Heaven quietly.
That's what allowed the Xu Household to arrive at Tianwu Mountain so precisely to offer their assistance.
"Has the Xu Household been hiding this well?" Xu Dewen's eyes flickered slightly.
"Don't underestimate the Xu Household. Xu Deling has already broken through to the Nascent Soul Late Stage and even has the strength to suppress Meiji."
Junior brother, you need to break through as soon as possible.
And then there's Ye Fan, who also suppressed Tyrant Blade; he'll be one of your formidable rivals in the future.
Upon hearing this, Xu Dewen's expression turned serious. He clasped his hands in a fist and said, "Don't worry, Senior Brother, I will definitely be able to break through in two or three years at the latest."
Seven-Kill True Lord smiled and patted his shoulder, "Once you break through, I can hand over all the affairs of the Heavenly Baleful Sect to you."
He devoted himself to cultivating his Dharma Form Divine Ability Power and striving for perfection.
"Senior brother, I'm too young, it's probably not suitable. Senior brother Primordial Baleful is far superior to me in terms of seniority and prestige."
"We Devil Cultivator believe in strength above all else. If anyone dares to disobey us, we will simply beat them into submission."
With your strength, once you break through to the Nascent Soul Late Stage, even I will be no match for you.
It was enough to suppress the other factions.
Furthermore, before I go into seclusion, I will have Junior Brother Primordial Baleful and the other Nascent Soul of the Tiansha lineage fully support you.
"Then thank you for your trust, Senior Brother. I will do my best."
Xu Dewen cupped his hands in greeting.
"Alright, continue your cultivation. I'll have someone send over the congratulatory gift. You can choose a time to go to the Martial Sect yourself."
"Yes, senior brother."
