章 334: Sect Leader
A few things changed after the night of the Violet Clan's Martial Gathering. Despite the fact that no blood had been shed at the event, which was normally the most probable cause of concern, two names had become household as a result of said martial gathering.
Arthur Kovacs, and Vladimir Lew.
Or, the Boundless Forest Yearning, and the Formless Night Shadow.
Their relationship, other than their similar talents, was unknown.
But White Corpse City, even if it was for only a short while, was home to two Sovereign Boundary Physiques. For a single night, this tiny, minuscule region in the western sections of the Azure Envy Continent was home to two of the most powerful talents in the Thirty Three Heavens.
Despite the fact that not much was known about the Boundless Forest Yearning, the wielder of the Formless Night Shadow was already someone who had risen to the Continent stage.
A core disciple of the Nightime Demon Sect, a Righteous Immortal Sect that was built close an an upper stratum section of the Hungry Ghosts Famous River. An existence that surpasses the White Dominion Sect in every single way imaginable, and possesses a Rank 7 Fae Immortal as the current Sect Leader.
A Fae Master can't possibly defeat a Fae Immortal.
And as such, a single Fae Immortal could destroy the entire White Dominion Sect.
If it wasn't for the existence of universally accepted rules that prevented Fae Immortals from participating in mortal conflicts, a single Rank 6 Fae Immortal could travel throughout mortal regions, plundering and taking whatever resources and women and Fae they wanted.
That was what a single Fae Immortal was capable of.
And the Nightime Demon Sect?
Possessed Rank 6 Fae Immortals as Elders.
The fact that such an influence had suddenly appeared within the White Dominion Region put more than a few of the Elders of the White Dominion Sect on edge....
"Where is Lady White!? Shouldn't she be here considering that she is the representative from the Amber Pride Continent!?".
One of the Elders from the White Dominion Sect turned towards his fellow Elders, his cultivation was only a vapour emerald origin essence, and he didn't possess much standing or political power. The fact that he had only managed to become an Elder after 120 years of cultivation meant that he had very few years left to live, and he had spent the last couple years doing nothing but sexual activities with young nubile female Fae Masters.
Even though he wasn't particular talented in the eyes of the White Dominion Sect, the fact that he had become a Rank 4 Fae Master meant that he exceeded more than ninety percent of all Fae Masters.
If he could sire a few children before he left, even if only one was useful, it would prove beneficial to the future of the White Dominion Sect.
Another one of the Elders just glanced at this old man, rolling their eyes at him.
"Stop your complaining! Lady White needn't be bothered with such trivial matters. She has already approached the envoy that came with the Formless Night Shadow. They are currently discussing matters as we speak. What we are here today to discuss is, the matter on the Boundless Forest Yearning.....".
Several of the other Elders present nodded, sending origin essence messages to each other covertly using Thought Attributed Fae.
Arthur's..... presence within the White Dominion Sect hadn't gone unnoticed.
The fact that a Sovereign Boundary Physique, especially one that wasn't affiliated with any known organization was roaming around freely within their territory was.... a slight cause for concern.
The thing about Sovereign Boundary Physiques was.... that while they were all ranked in terms of combat strength, their "usefulness" is what is actually valued by Sects and Clans.
An overwhelming combat strength is indeed extraordinarily useful, but unless a Sovereign Boundary Physique can complete Ascension, they are destined to remain just an big fish in a small pond. As such, despite the fact that the lower ranked Sovereign Boundary Physiques do not possess an extraordinary combat prowess, some did possess abilities that could assist one in completing Ascension.
The Tainted Sinless Blight practically guaranteed Ascension, so long as there wasn't anything particularly off about their foundation or their cultivation base.
The Celestial Yin Moon can predict the future by observing everything in the present. Using the moon as a part of a greater Attribute Control Skill, one can theoretically observe the entirety of a single Heaven, thus granting them ability to spy or predict future events when given as much information as humanly possible.
The Boundless Forest Yearning, with the Affection Tree Fae, can even inspire affection within the heavens and the earth. During Ascension, in which the heavens and the earth actively try and resist this "mortal" from shedding its coil and reaching "immortality", a blessing, or reward is given at the end.
This is usually in the form of lifespan, but sometimes potentially Fae, or Law comprehensions.
By earning the affections of the heavens, it doesn't just decrease the difficulty of Ascension, but also the rewards at the end as well.
The greatest weakness of the Affection Tree Fae is time needed for the seeds of affection to take root, which is why Arthur could afford to take his time after he becomes Rank 5. Spreading seeds of affection all over the heavens would take an extraordinary large amount of time.
Not only would he need to spread them over a huge area, but also in such a concentration that the seeds of affection would actually become visible to the naked eye.
It didn't guarantee Ascension, unlike the Tainted Sinless Blight, but unlike that particular Sovereign Boundary Physique, it could actually increase the rewards given when Ascension is completed.
That was an overwhelmingly powerful ability. One that if properly researched, could potentially be shared with others.
One of the Elders couldn't help but speak up. This elderly man was a peak Rank 4 Fae Master, and a member of the Violet Clan.
Violet Sunglass' uncle; Violet Everglade.
"Hmm? What is there to discuss about the Boundless Forest Yearning?".
The Head of the Violet Clan sent a silent message to his own father and fellow supporters, hoping to see where this conversation was going.
Another one of the Elders spoke up, rolling their eyes at Violet Everglade.
This was also Purple Mist's master; Golden Flower.
"Discuss!? This generations Boundless Forest Yearning is obviously antagonistic to the current White Dominion Sect!? Not only did he try and humiliate one of our core disciples, he publicly assaulted, and dismembered another one of our inner sect disciples!? He purposely tricked Purple Mist into antagonizing a core disciple of the Nightime Demon Sect! Despite the fact that Fae Immortals cannot interfere with the affairs of Fae Masters, there are still dozens of Rank 5 Fae Masters within the Nightime Demon Sect! A single platoon of them would be able to wipe White Corpse City of the map!".
Violet Everglade just rolled his eyes, not even hiding the fact that he was smiling.
"You can only blame the incompetence of the Purple brothers for provoking the Boundless Forest Yearning. Talking about trying to punish, or retaliate against a junior, aren't you a little old for that, Elder Golden?".
A few of the neutral, and Violet Clan supporters smiled, glancing at each other.
Face, or reputation was sometimes worth more than its weight in gold. Pride, or lust weren't the only emotions that could be used, or manipulated with using Fae.
Golden Flower just waved it off, scrunching up his face, and tilting his head back as he gazed towards Violet Everglade.
"A junior?! He might be young, be he does possess a Sovereign Boundary Physique, Elder Everglade. In the future, he will inevitably become a Rank 5 Fae Master! He already has some grievance with our White Dominion Sect, so why wouldn't he come back in the future when he is stronger, and much more powerful! He may be young, but all Sovereign Boundary Physiques much be taken-".
"Our White Dominion Sect?! Elder Golden, the Boundless Forest Yearning only has grievances with your disciples, Elder Golden. He hasn't had a problem with any of the other Fae Masters of the White Dominion Sect. And besides, if we do end up attacking him, all he would need to do would be to travel to another powerful Sect or Clan, possibly even an Immortal one. If you end up making him an enemy by trying to kill him then.....".
Golden Flower and Violet Everglade were apart of the two opposing factions within the White Dominion Sect.
Both were peak Rank 4 Fae Masters, however one represented the Clans that supported, or were born from the White Dominion Sect, while the other represented the mortal born, or the rouge Fae Masters who were talented enough to join.
Usually, Clans were much more traditional, and focused on keeping bloodlines pure in order to enhance their future strength. While Sects were progressive and didn't try to keep their disciples restrained by notions such as marriage or descendents.
This allowed Sects to have a much wider range of talents and Fae Masters, but to a certain degree, it did lower the chances of them producing a genius.
But in this generation, the Violet Clan hadn't produced such a thing.
While the mortal born factions produced, or found the Purple brothers.
It was clear that from that alone, the mortal born faction of the White Dominion Sect possessed a greater sway, considering that their younger generation was stronger than those that came from Clans.
Golden Flower opened his mouth to speak, but was interrupted by the sounds of the enormous gate to the Elders Hall opening.
It was crafted from a Rank 4 Fae material and only a Rank 4 Fae Master could push it open with their own physical strength. In other words, only an Elder, or someone who had the strength of an Elder could open this door.
A few eyebrows raised, while a few more frowned at the sudden interruption. There were only a handful of people in the Sect that would dare to interrupt the Elders Hall, outside of an emergency.
However-.
The pressure of a peak Rank 5 Fae Master cultivation base was released on all of the Rank 4 Fae Masters present.
An entire realm greater than the strongest person in this room, and yet....
The gap was even wider, than the gap between Rank 1 and Rank 3.
All of the Elders present stood up, and bowed before this old man.
"Greetings Sect Leader!".
