Sect World

Biodata

Power Progression

• Server 999’s development is driven by its sects’ breakthroughs. The milestones below describe sect advancement and resulting world-wide unlocks, not cultivation realms attained by the world itself 9 22 23.

Access and Sect Management

Awakening and Entry

• Every third-year high school student can awaken a sect during the first week of their final school year. The awakening test displays the sect, its disciples, its spiritual energy concentration, and an overall rating 1.
• After awakening, students can enter Sect World by projecting their minds from their assigned cultivation rooms, also called cave abodes 2 3.
• Sect masters can create an in-world appearance. Lin Feng uses a blue-robed young man and adopts the sect-master name Tiancan Tudou 3.
• Sect masters receive wind-riding travel even without cultivation. An ordinary sect master’s cultivation automatically matches the highest-realm cultivator in their sect 4 39.
• Failing successive trials can destroy a sect and leave its master an ordinary person again. This is the eventual outcome for most awakened people 13 39.

Starting Conditions and Construction

Time Flow

Geography and Inhabitants

• Sect territories vary sharply in resources and spiritual energy. At the start of the second-week contest, Azure Luan Sect has 200% base spiritual energy concentration, Daoxuan and Supreme Purity have 160%, and Dao Inquiry has 120% 18.
• Mortal villages and cities provide recruitment grounds. Lin Feng searches communities including Iron Ox Village and East Forest City, where Liu Quan serves as city lord 6 8.
• Cultivation aptitude is uncommon among mortals. Lin Feng finds no additional talented recruits in two villages after recruiting Tie Dali 6.
• Ancient ruins can remain concealed near awakened sects. Zhao Qingyan discovers a formation hiding a ruin on Evergreen’s rear mountain 16.
• Demonic beasts inhabit the world and its trial areas. Some can be subdued as mounts and guards, as demonstrated by Evergreen’s wolf pack 16 18.

Myriad Spirits Secret Realm

• Opens for seven days during the second week’s Spirit Realm Trial 18.
• Contains spirit vein nodes, natural spirit-gathering hollows, spirit spring ruins, wild spirit plants, demonic beasts, and resource strongholds 18.
• Allows sects to hunt, harvest materials, occupy territory, and contest resources. All disciples of a sect share one uncapped trial-points pool 18.
• Exchanges points for cultivation-environment improvements, including formation upgrades, spring purification essence, earth-vein stabilizers, cleansing talismans, and spirit-herb seeds 18.
• Can yield permanent territorial benefits: strongholds captured by Evergreen later manifest within its own lands as cultivation sites, springs, and spirit fields 30 46.

Competitions and Trials

• Weekly competitions award ranked development rewards; accompanying trials can eliminate sects outright 4 13.
• Rankings include individual placements and percentage brackets, with rewards extending down to the top 80% in the third-week contest 37.

First-Week Recruitment Scoring

Trial Mechanics

• Beast onslaught: Demonic beasts appear outside every sect. The first trial is unexpectedly severe, prompting accusations that Evergreen has raised the difficulty; after Evergreen’s victory, the remaining beasts’ quantity and quality fall by half 13 15.
• Spirit-demon hunting: Second-week kills grant 1–3 points for ordinary Houtian beasts, 10–20 for elite Qi Refining First–Fifth Layer beasts, and 100–300 for lord beasts at Qi Refining Sixth–Tenth Layer 18.
• Spiritual purification: Those kills also improve the sect’s spiritual energy purity by 0.01%, 0.05%, or 0.2%, respectively 18.
• Stronghold occupation: Occupied resource sites continuously generate points. Fertile spirit lands produce 1–10 points per hour, while natural spirit-gathering strongholds produce 3–30 18.

Third-Week Technique Scoring

• Each successive technique grade doubles the corresponding points. A disciple’s progress across multiple techniques is added together 37.
• Evergreen opens with 1,460 points, compared with Daoxuan’s 218 and Azure Luan’s 205, largely because of Tie Dali and Liu Yurou’s advanced technique training 38.

Trading and Communication

World Channel

• Sect masters use a server-wide chat channel to discuss rankings, negotiate, recruit allies, and challenge rival sects. Private messages and direct trade requests are also available 4 18.
• Sect World broadcasts major events, competition results, and significant sect advancements 9 11 22.
• Evergreen’s Hidden Sect Mystic Aura can prevent its breakthroughs and advancements from triggering announcements while preserving access to rewards 38 39.

Trading House

• Opens after the first week’s recruitment competition, allowing sect masters to buy and sell items freely 11.
• Adds Qi Refining pills and mid- and high-grade magical artifacts once the first Foundation Establishment sect emerges. Daily quantities remain limited 23.
• Can host secure online auctions for a fee of 1,000 low-grade spirit stones. Funds are verified before bids are accepted, and purchases are protected against interception 49.
• Restricts auction participation to sect leaders, leaving disciples free to continue cultivation 49.

Evergreen’s First Auction

• Evergreen offers approximately 300 magical artifacts, followed by Qi Condensation Pills and Foundation Establishment Pills 48 49.
• All 500 Qi Condensation Pills sell at an average of 1,050 low-grade spirit stones each 49.
• Almost every top-ten sect obtains a supreme-grade magical artifact, strengthening Server 999 beyond what comparable sects in other worlds would normally possess at this stage 49.
• The top ten threaten united hostility against any sect outside the top fifteen that bids on Foundation Establishment Pills 49.
• Supreme Purity wins the final supreme-grade Foundation Establishment Pill for 81,000 low-grade spirit stones 50.

Major Sects of Server 999

Connections to Other Worlds

Other Sect Worlds

• Server 999 is only one of multiple Sect Worlds in the same batch. Its early Foundation Establishment breakthrough unlocks advanced Trading House stock ahead of its peers 24.
• Sect masters anticipate an eventual merger of Sect Worlds, making their server’s collective strength strategically important 19 44.
• The Cross-Realm Trading Token, awarded to Evergreen for three consecutive weekly victories, grants access to a randomly selected other Sect World’s Trading House 50.

Blue Star

• Awakened people generally cannot summon their sects into reality. A world merger is one condition that permits summoning, and sect owners are obligated to resist invading races during such events 39.
• During Spirit City’s small-scale merger, students summon disciples and beasts from Sect World to fight alongside civilian sects and official defenders 40.
• Lin Feng ordinarily cannot cast spells in reality, but the world junction allows him to draw on spiritual power and ride the wind 44.
• Once the fighting ends, he recalls Tie Dali and the other disciples to Sect World 44.
