Chapter 941 - Most Powerful Individual Under Heavenly Lord Realm
Chapter 941 Most Powerful Individual Under Heavenly Lord Realm
Mighty cities had been erected all over the land, some were a few hundred square kilometers in size, some boasted tall city walls, and some had been set where gathering nodes of Spirit Qi were found.
The traffic was busy in this region and the roads were filled with Golden Core Cultivators.
Underneath the ground, individuals with Spirit Vision would find countless Spirit Veins spread underground like a web. They were as important to the cities as blood veins would to the human body.
“Incredible! Every city here is like the Royal city of Beihan Region,” Mu Hongti exclaimed.
The Beihan Region only had a city of a similar scale: the Royal city.
However, the Reincarnation Heavenly Region had more than a dozen.
The difference was indicative of the huge gap between the two regions.
The closer they were to the center of the Reincarnation Heavenly Region, the busier the traffic became. Their powerful mounts and luxurious vehicles made it apparent that those cultivators were from prestigious sects. Some even traveled with an extravagant procession consisting of a hundred servants. Many of the vehicles were Spirit Treasures, some were even of superior-grade.
Superior-grade Spirit Treasures were as rare as Heavenly Treasures.
Even powerful Beihan Families such as Zhao Juexian’s only had a couple of Superior-grade Spirit Treasures. Plus, flying Dharma Treasures were the rarest of all spirit treasures. A superior-grade flying vehicle was worth as much as a Quasi-Heavenly Treasure.
These luxury items were reserved only for the rich heirs of powerful sects, and most of them were only for show.
“What a waste of resources,” Lin Wuhua said with a furrowed brow.
The three girls had travelled a lot with Chen Fan, but they were still astonished by the opulence of the Reincarnation Heavenly Region.
Chen Fan’s plain carriage seemed out of place in such a river of luxury.
“Cultivation is not for the pursuit of vanity, it’s for seeking truth and immortality. What’s the use of flaunting these trinkets?”
Chen Fan shook his head.
Chen Fan had already spotted the rotten bones underneath that luxurious skin.
Planet Tianhuang had not seen war for many years, and was isolated from other cultivation realms. Peaceful living had lulled the cultivators into a false sense of security, where it became a breeding ground for vanity and narcissism. The Beihuang Region was on the desolate barren ground, so it didn’t have as bad of a problem. However, the Reincarnation Heavenly Region was near the heart of Tianhuang; self indulgence and debauchery ran rampant there.
Chen Fan ignored the pitying and contemptuous looks around him and said, “Let’s visit Tianyuan City first.”
Tianyuan City to the Reincarnation Heavenly Region was the same as the City of Fallen Stars to the Beihuang Region. It was the center of the region.
The most powerful sect in the Reincarnation Heavenly Region, Mount Reincarnation was located there.
Mount Reincarnation was over a hundred thousand years old, and was one of the mightest sects in Tianhuang. The Wang Family or the Heavenly Swords Sect simply couldn’t compare.
One example to prove its mighty presence was the fact that the Reincarnation Sect had a Heavenly Lord for each generation. This achievement alone could put ninety percent of the other factions to shame.
Other than Mount Emperor and the nine other sects in the Ten Major Heavenly Regions, no one else could claim such a feat.
“It’s such a prosperous city!”
The three girls were astounded by what they saw when they arrived in the city.
Tianyuan City was a few times larger than the City of Fallen Stars and it had over tens of millions of residents, all of them cultivators. Spirit Qi was abundant in the city, and it even formed Spirit Mist in some areas.
Most of the residences were at the Connate Spirit Level or above. Golden Core Cultivators were a common sight in the streets.
“Master, Tianyuan City has been lauded as the City of Immortal Cultivation. Legend says that it was built on top of large Spirit Veins with a Spirit Qi so dense that it would elevate a mortal into the realm of cultivation in ten years,” Zhao Juexian said, bowing. He was wearing his usual black outfit.
He continued, “The favorable environment had attracted cultivators from places as far as the Barren Regions. Not only could they enjoy the abundant Spirit Qi, but also join the powerful Reincarnation Sect, so many hoped to become disciples.
“However, the Reincarnation Sect has the most stringent requirement for accepting disciples. Any disciples who fail to form a level four Golden Core are expelled from the sect.”
“What?”
The three girls were shocked.
Level four Golden Cores were rare even among the members of a Heavenly Lord Family. Lin Wuhua was only level five. It was just another telltale sign of the sect’s power.
Someone as talented as Lin Wuhua would be among the sect’s least favorite disciples.
However, Chen Fan was unaffected by what he heard.
Deep in the universe, many Immortal Sects would outright forbid disciples from reaching the Golden Core if they didn’t have what it took to attain the Superior-grade. The Divine sects in the sacred land had even more stringent requirements than Immortal Sects. Those sects were filled to the brim with powerful Grand Cultivators.
However, such power was beyond the comprehension of Zhao Juexian and the three girls.
Tianyuan City was massive.
They found a place to stay for the night before they headed out to search for Xiao Mang.
The entrance of the Reincarnation Sect was located right outside of the City Gate.
Looking from afar, the sect was surrounded by lush mountains and valleys. Some mountains were over ten thousand meters tall, towering above everything like behemoths. The peaks of those mountains were surrounded by clouds where dragons danced with other Spirit Beasts. A saintly incantation came out of each and every pore and crevice on the ground.
“This is a sacred ground.”
Yun Yier was stunned by the scene.
Lin Wuhua also gripped the blade handle in excitement.
If they could cultivate in such a sublime environment, they could very likely reach the Nascent Soul level.
“The Reincarnation Sect really lives up to its reputation. I think its power is second only to Mount Emperor,” Zhao Juexian marveled.
“However, how are we going to go through the gate and find Xiao Mang?” Mu Hongti said with a frown.
“Don’t worry about it.”
Chen Fan was not the least worried.
Before Shenxi took Xiao Mang away, she had left a personal belonging behind as a pledge. Chen Fan should be able to enter the gate after showing this item to the guards. Failing that, it wouldn’t be too difficult for Chen Fan to barge into the sect.
He was near the fifth transformation of the Deity Wheel, and would not be afraid of a Nascent Soul Cultivator.
“However, we need to find out what is going on with Shenxi and whether Xiao Mang is still in the Reincarnation Sect.”
It wasn’t an easy task to poke around in the cultivation world. However, Zhao Juexian knew exactly where to go. He led the group into a building as if he would have done so many times before.
“Brahma Palace?”
Chen Fan saw the words on the plaque.
“Master, the Brahma Palace is a famous luxury resort in Tianhuang. You can buy anything here with Spirit Stones, including many secrets. From learning the details of Mount Emperor’s current condition, to buying a Heavenly Lord Family’s daughter as a servant. You can do anything here; the sky’s the limit,” Zhao Juexian said respectfully.
“Really? buying a Heavenly Lord Family’s daughter?”
Yun Yier widened her eyes in disbelief.
Honor and reputations were the two most important things to a Heavenly Lord Family. To buy one of their family members and use her as a servant was a brazen affront. Even lesser families such as the Feng Family had powerful treasures such as the Heavenly Blade of Obliteration, much less the more powerful ones.
“Rumor has it that the Brahma Palace is supported by Heavenly Lords. Meanwhile, it would require a tremendous amount of Spirit Stones to conduct such a transaction.”
The scene inside the Brahma Palace was much different than outside.
Looking from outside, the Brahma Palace was just an ordinary three story building. However, the interior was wide and spacious. It was bigger than the biggest supermarket on planet earth that Chen Fan had ever seen. The entire building had over a hundred levels, and each had its own unique flavors and styles. The spatial expansion was a direct result of a Dharma Array.
It would take a Nascent Soul Cultivator to expand space to this degree.
This just went to show how incredibly powerful the Brahma Palace was.
“Can I help you?” a greeteer walked over and asked them.
This greeter was wearing a plain azure cloth and was one of lower level servants. The higher level ones wore violet and black outfits.
However, even this low level servant had reached the Golden Core realm. Outside of this building, he could have been an elder in a renowned family; but here, he was just a greeter.
After being told what the customers wanted, the servant led them to the upper floors.
Chen Fan looked around and noticed that all the people who passed him were peak level Golden Core Cultivators. Many of them were surrounded by attractive girls and had lots to spend.
Their wealth and power endowed them with an imperious air.
Chen Fan’s companions were all Connate Cultivators; their low level and plain clothing also made them look out of place. However, Lin Wuhua’s breathtaking beauty had attracted much attention. Everyone knew that only the rich and the powerful could make it into the Brahma Palace, so everyone had left them alone.
The opulence and luxury of the Brahma Palace had opened the three girl’s eyes to debauchery.
On one of the floors, they saw the entire space had been taken up by a huge pool of fine wine made in Long Hua city. Inside the pool were many scantily clothed servant girls. Any one of those girls was as attractive as Mu Hongti and Yun Yier, some even possessed beauty that could rival Lin Wuhua’s.
The sight didn’t sit well with Yun Yier.
Chen Fan wore an indifferent face and followed the servant. Finally, they arrived at the fifty-seventh floor. This department specialized in the business of secrets.
Chen Fan noticed many Divine Wills as soon as he walked in.
One of them caught Chen Fan’s attention. He looked toward the speaker.
“Have you heard that Mount Reincarnation’s Goddess, Shenxi, is going to come out of her seclusion cultivation?”
“I heard that she has made huge improvements and is going to claim the number one spot on the Longevity Roll.”
“That means she is going to be the most powerful individual under the Heavenly Lord realm.”
