Chapter 1390 Exploring the Star Shattering Sect (2)
Wow… So, this is the Ninth Star Peak that I heard about earlier?! I never imagined there to be so many spiritual herbs in a single location and all of them are high quality as well!
Arriving at the Ninth Star Peak following behind Shen Xuefeng, the older wandering cultivator, Shu Yin, let out an amazed sound as she couldn't stop looking at the different spiritual herb fields that covered the Ninth Star Peak.
Even as someone at the Later Stages of the Domain Lord Realm, she felt tempted by the large number of spiritual herbs present, but of course, she understood that these spiritual herbs were grown by the Star Shattering Sect and was thus theirs.
If she really took a few of those spiritual herbs she would end up stealing from the Star Shattering Sect. Not something she wanted to do.
So, even if her instincts as a wandering cultivator who rarely encountered so many spiritual herbs called out for her to take away as many as possible before running away, she managed to restrain herself and obediently follow behind Shen Xuefeng as they made their way through the spiritual herb field.
In the process, Shu Yin also managed to encounter a few of the sect's elders and disciples who were currently in the process of building the few buildings on top of the Ninth Star Peak that would hold the elders and disciples taking care of and harvesting the sect's spiritual herbs.
Because of this, she also got her first glimpse of how strong the Star Shattering Sect was outside of just those few people she had encountered at the entrance to the sect… And she was a bit taken aback, as the strength of the disciples far surpassed what she had expected.
Even the elders were different compared to what she had thought, as most of the ones she encountered seemed to be on the younger side when it came to being in the Domain Lord Realm, while those at the Nascent Soul Realm seemed to all have the potential of reaching the Domain Lord Realm in the future.
Although she did not end up encountering anyone stronger than the earlier stages of the Domain Lord Realm, she didn't find this odd, as she believed that it was normal for the stronger and more senior elders of the sect to be in seclusion and not wander around the sect like those she had encountered so far.
If she wanted to encounter any of the Soul Ascension Realm or stronger elders that she believed the Star Shattering Sect to have, she would definitely have to go to the core area of the sect, something that she hoped to be able to visit, but at the same time also feared visiting, as she understood that she might end up accidentally pissing off one of these powerful elders.
Outside of that, she had also heard some of the elders of the sect chatting about a title above that of elders called ancestors, though it was normal considering that any power would have ancestors that were considered the pinnacle power to some extent. Compromising of all the senior experts that had retired to focus entirely on cultivating.
The thing she focused on when it came to those ancestors was the fact that the elders talked about the minimum requirements to becoming an ancestor was to reach the Dao Seed Realm.
Although she thought of herself as knowledgeable, having spent a majority of her life travelling around the continent, she had never heard about the Dao Seed Realm that the elders of the Star Shattering Sect casually mentioned while talking amongst each other.
Dao Seed Realm… I know about the Earth Immortal Realm, the Celestial Immortal Realm and even the legendary Profound Immortal Realm, but I have never heard anything about this Dao Seed Realm. Don't tell me... Is it perhaps the realm above the Profound Immortal Realm!?
How terrifying… If the Star Shattering Sect has ancestors above the Profound Immortal Realm and Celestial Immortal Realm, it's no wonder why major empires like the Blue Sea Empire would be so terrified of them! Indeed, a hidden sect is far scarier than I imagined. The strength of the disciples and younger elders I have seen so far should only be the younger generation of the sect, I still haven't seen anyone from the senior generation!
As she began drawing her own conclusions about the Dao Seed Realm that the different elders of the Star Shattering Sect were talking about, Shu Yin could not help feeling a shiver run down her spine. Realizing that any mistake she made while walking around the Star Shattering Sect might end up costing her, her life…
At the same time, Shen Xuefeng walking in front of Shu Yin could not help glancing over at the weird wandering cultivating that she was walking through the sect.
From the start, this fellow had acted weird…
Just a few seconds ago, she had been eyeing the spiritual herbs of the sect greedily like she was about to jump forward and try to steal them, while the next second, she was following closely behind her with a fearful expression plastered all over her face as she kept looking around herself and at the different elders and disciples passing by them.
At this point in time, the different elders and disciples walking past them had even begun to look weirdly at them. Clearly thinking that something might be wrong with Shu Yin with how she was looking all over the place.
Is it really alright to have someone like this join the sect?
Thinking this to herself as she let the older wandering cultivator down the Ninth Star Peak after passing through the spiritual herb fields, Shen Xuefeng was just about to say something to try and calm this wandering cultivator, when she suddenly noticed that she seemed to have completely calmed herself at some point in time. Returning to her normal surprised and amazed expression.
Weird, this woman is weird…
Shaking her head as she thought about this, Shen Xuefeng decided to not think about it anymore, as she just decided to continue moving through the sect with Shu Yin following behind her.
Even if that woman was somewhat of an oddball when compared to any of the other wandering cultivators who wanted to join the Star Shattering Sect since it had grown rapidly over the past few years, it was true that her strength was at the Later Stages of the Domain Lord Relam and would be extremely useful to the Star Shattering Sect.
Even if she was a bit on the weirder side, it could be ignored as long as she would prove useful to the growth of the Star Shattering Sect. At least that was the case when it came to the way Elder Song would look at her.

All Elder Song would care about was whether or not she would help the growth of the Star Shattering Sect or harm it by joining, as long as she helped the sect and didn't harm it. Anything would be fine in the eyes of Elder Song.
Of course, she would still have to pass through a few examinations and background checks, but that shouldn't be that much of a problem for a wandering cultivator who shouldn't have any prior loyalties to other sects, kingdoms or empires.
As for how the Star Shattering Sect would check the identity of a wandering cultivator like Shu Yin… It was rather simple, as they would do this through the Explorer Union.
Although wandering cultivators tended to keep to themselves and not interact a lot with other forces, that was not the case for the Explorer Union, as that was their main way to earn spirit stones and get their hands on artifacts and other useful things for cultivation.
In the end, wandering cultivators were almost always registered at the Explorer Union so they had somewhere to sell the spiritual herbs, metals or other treasures they found along their journey.
Of course, the reason why they chose to trust the Explorer Union was also because the Explorer Union had a good reputation for being fair to all and never divulging information of what someone bought or sold through them. freēwebnovel.com
In turn, this also resulted in the Explorer Union having a rather extensive information profile on most wandering cultivator that had been around for an extended period of time.
As long as they got approval from the wandering cultivator in question, the Explorer Union would be more than happy to share this information with them for a price. Making it extremely simple to check the past of stronger wandering cultivators.
Of course, there were those who didn't even interact with the Explorer Union and were harder to get information on, but they were ultimately in the minority and hard to come by.
Luckily for Shen Xuefeng, she was not one of those people, as she had interacted with the explorer union a lot during her many years travelling across the continent.
