The Other Effect of the Exclusive Punishment

"Is this finally all done?"

On Hidden Origin Peak, Lu Changzhi watched the departing flying boat and gently shook his head.

Such a significant matter naturally takes much longer to complete.

As for what these people were discussing with Cang Wenyu and the others, he heard it all clearly because he was inside the illusion array.

There aren't many things worth caring about.

However, these points are all quite important.

For example, there's the issue of how to defend the territory of the Five Symbols Sect.

Of the three holy lands in the Northern Region, the Extreme Arms Holy Land is the farthest away.

At most, Ancestor Jiang can only control the Northern Region; the Southern Region and Western Region are uncertain.

The negotiations between the four domains back then were agreed upon by the three domains excluding the Eastern Region.

For the world to see, whether the Eastern Region or even the Land of the Four Directions are in chaos depends entirely on the giants of these three regions.

Let's return to the matter of guarding the borders.

As expected, after obtaining publicly available information about the strength of the sects...

The Extreme Arms Holy Land decisively decided to personally send people to guard it.

The overall strength of the Five Symbols Sect is simply too pathetic to behold.

The holy dynasty in the Southern Region, even with only a prince as its leader, is beyond the capacity of this region to withstand.

As for the lineup that will be sent, it is quite impressive.

Although there were no Saint Realm experts, there was more than one Transcendent Realm.

As for what the Five Symbols Sect needs to do, there's very little.

It's simply about paying attention to unusual movements and extraordinary events.

Otherwise, maintain the status quo.

Aside from these most important things, there are other trivial matters.

At this moment, the Extreme Arms Holy Land departed.

Lu Changzhi also withdrew his attention.

He got up, stretched, Lu Changzhi felt quite emotional.

"As expected of the Observing Chair, I've been sitting and lying down for so long without feeling tired at all."

With a soft murmur, Lu Changzhi turned to look in the direction the Extreme Arms Holy Land had departed, and gently shook his head:

"It feels really good to have someone powerful protecting you."

Regarding the matters discussed above, if it weren't for Ancestor Jiang, how could things have turned out that way?

Of course, the joint efforts of all parties are also essential.

For example, Elder Lin Jia, who was left behind to oversee the affairs of the Five Symbols Sect's territory, was retained.

According to Cang Wenyu, this is also one of their own.

Many of the things being discussed were things they had fought for.

"In a way, the Extreme Arms Holy Land can be considered a sister force of the Five Symbols Sect."

Shaking his head, Lu Changzhi couldn't help but smile.

After all, both sides share the same Ancestor Jiang.

Without dwelling on it, Lu Changzhi used telepathy to inquire about Cang Wenyu.

A response was received quickly.

The illusion array doesn't need to be activated for now; under the current circumstances, removing one layer is acceptable.

"At least I can finally rest."

With a soft voice, Lu Changzhi returned to the house.

Although I still have other things to do right now.

But rest is the most important thing; we'll talk about it after we wake up.

Azure Cloud Sect.

I've been back for about half a day.

All the disciples of the Azure Cloud Sect noticed that the group of elders who had come out excitedly still had long faces in their hearts.

What exactly happened remains unknown.

In short, designation is not a good thing.

"I never imagined that the Cloud Heaven Holy Land, one of the three great holy lands, would be so terrible!"

Yuan Hou stood by the window, gritting his teeth.

Today should have been the day for the Azure Cloud Sect to show off their power and prestige.

Now things are much better; the Five Symbols Sect will be protected by the Extreme Arms Holy Land from now on.

On the contrary, the Cloud Heaven Holy Land, which they had pledged allegiance to, was so terrified in front of that so-called Saint Jiang that they didn't dare to utter a sound.

For a moment, Yuan Hou felt a pang of regret.

If I had known this would happen, I would have tried to win over the Extreme Arms Holy Land from the very beginning.

But, as long as I think about it...

Unfortunately, the opportunity is gone now.

Taking a deep breath, Yuan Hou closed his eyes.

The next moment, his expression suddenly changed, and he turned to look in the direction of the Flower Spirit Sect.

"We must act quickly against the Flower Spirit Sect!"

A glint flashed in Yuan Hou's eyes.

Those old women from the Flower Spirit Sect might just go and cling to the Five Symbols Sect.

Furthermore, with the Five Symbols Sect gaining power, things could get complicated...

Immediately, Yuan Hou got up and went to find the elder.

Such an unexpected event occurred when the attack on the Five Symbols Sect took place.

I refuse to believe that I could be so Poor Fortune when I attacked the Flower Spirit Sect!

I slept for a very long time.

What woke him wasn't the blazing sun, but Luo Ling'er's tentative question:

"Master, would you like lunch?"

"Eat."

Sleeping and enjoying delicious food are mutually exclusive, but that doesn't stop you from eating before sleeping.

I got up, glanced at the system as usual, and greeted it.

Silence remained.

"Not back yet?"

Lu Changzhi frowned:

"Could this guy have been captured by another system and then subdued by Dali?"

Otherwise, this would take far too long.

Others claim they last a long time, but it turns out they only last three minutes.

The system said it would be done in a little while, but it took more than three months.

Taking the road less traveled.

After some speculation, just as he was about to retract his attention, Lu Changzhi's gaze suddenly sharpened.

He seemed to spot something he'd never seen before in the warehouse.

It was a longsword, in decent condition, Spirit Rank Mid Grade weapon.

"I don't think it existed before?"

Lu Changzhi thought for a moment, then his expression shifted:

"Could it be that Gu Chen gave it to you for signing in?"

Upon considering this possibility, Lu Changzhi frowned.

If that's the case, then it's an upgrade in reverse.

Immediately, Lu Changzhi went to check the system notification records.

Then he saw:

"The talent [Luo Zhen's Gardener] has been activated. You have obtained Luo Zhen's loot: Spirit Rank High Grade weapon - the Cloud Cleaver Sword *1."

"Um?"

Lu Changzhi looked at the talent section with a strange expression.

Sure enough, he has a new talent compared to before.

[Luo Zhen's Gardener]: Bound to target Luo Zhen. A diligent gardener, hard work pays off. Nurturing the target will and ultimately benefit you in various ways; Current Diligence Level: Level 1; Whenever Luo Zhen's [Heavenly Sha Lone Star] talent activates, it will randomly drop items for him...

"This..."

Lu Changzhi couldn't help but find it somewhat amusing.

So, that exclusive punishment not only affected Luo Zhen, but also gave him a new talent.

In short, the current effect of this talent is that Luo Zhen receives good things because of it, and randomly obtains items from the other party.

Considering the impact of the talent [Nine Deaths and One Life].

It seems that, regardless of whether it's a good thing or a misfortune for Luo Zhen, he can get something out of it.

"Although its rank is a bit low, it still has a lot of potential for growth."

Lu Changzhi nodded in satisfaction.

Hard work pays off, which is a pleasant surprise.

At this moment, Ling'er called out again.

He shut down the system, got up, and walked out.

The trio who were freeloading on meals remained unmoved by the sect's important affairs today.

The three had a clear division of labor: selecting vegetables, starting a fire, and serving the food.

Once competition arises, service levels rise dramatically.

During the meal, Lu Changzhi mentioned to Cang Wenyu that he intended to learn about the Cloud Heaven Holy Land.

Okay, I'll bring it to you later.

Cang Wenyu took on the task.

This saves us some work.

After lunch, we moved the deck chairs around and it was time to enjoy the afternoon sun.

Inside the library.

Xiao Ye paused, put down the jade talisman in his hand, and glanced outside.

Then, he took out the food he had brought and dug it into his mouth as if digging in the ground.

Suddenly, a voice rang in my ears:

"My lord, they're Tongtong back."
