Chapter 75: Chapter 75 Diancang Sect_1

Translator: 549690339

Qingyun Manor, Cang Mountain.

The Cang Mountain range stretches for thousands of miles, dotted with numerous peaks, layer upon layer of ridges and ravines, lush and verdant within, ancient trees reaching to the skies. The scenery is not only beautiful, but the spiritual energy is also very rich.

This is the mountain gate of the powerful Diancang Sect in Qingyun Manor.

Qingyun Manor has three major sects, with the Hehuan Sect universally recognized as the first-ranked, while the Diancang Sect is ranked second.

Although the Diancang Sect lacks a Guru in the Void Realm, it has a Diancang Master at the late stage of the God Refining Realm, as well as support from the Leizhou officials, and does not fear the Hehuan Sect in the slightest.

As a major power in Qingyun Manor, the Diancang Sect controls nearly half of the resources in Qingyun Manor, holding significant influence, making it an excellent choice for youths in Qingyun Manor and the surrounding regions who wish to join a sect.

This was also the target chosen by the Eternal Mother.

Half a year ago, the low-profile Lu Tianxiang finally healed her wounds. She planned to find a way to spread her faith in order to recover her strength and quickly advance her cultivation.

She could not use the name of the White Lotus Cult anymore, as the Daqian Empire would not sit by and watch the cult rise from its ashes and create upheaval again, leaving her to flee in a sorry state like a dog that had lost its home.

Thus, Lu Tianxiang decided to change her identity and spread faith under a different guise. However, being on her own with no supporters, she was unable to establish a new sect in a short period of time.

The rapid growth and expansion of the White Lotus Cult were due to the support of mysterious forces in the background, which provided a large number of personnel. With four Hollow Realm Masters and many God Refining Realm masters, they were able to sweep through Huozhou.

After much consideration, Lu Tianxiang decided to ‘borrow a chicken to lay an egg’ by picking out an existing sect to secretly spread her faith for her.

This sect could not be weak in strength; otherwise, it would not be able to get things done. In the vast Qingyun Manor, she only had three choices: the Hehuan Sect, the Diancang Sect, and Heiyuan Mountain.

Amongst the three great sects of Qingyun Manor, Heiyuan Mountain was the weakest in strength, so Lu Tianxiang immediately ruled it out; the Hehuan Sect was the strongest, with a Hollow Realm Master, and she was unsure of the Sect Master’s level within the Hollow Void Stage, which made it difficult to interfere with.

Moreover, with the massive Yinyang Sect behind the Hehuan Sect, Lu

Tianxiang knew she couldn’t afford to provoke it, so she eliminated that option too.

That left her with the second-ranked Diancang Sect.

The Diancang Sect was not weak in strength, nor in influence, and crucially its Sect Master, the Diancang Master, was only at the late stage of the God Refining Realm, making him easier to control.

At present, Lu Tianxiang could barely muster the combat ability of a Myriad Phenomena Realm cultivator, and dared not act rashly. The Diancang Sect was the most suitable choice, and its relations with the Qian Dynasty made it convenient for her manoeuvres.

After selecting her target, Lu Tianxiang disguised herself as a young girl seeking a teacher and successfully infiltrated the Diancang Sect, where she found an opportunity to ambush the Diancang Master, converting him into one of her followers.

With the assistance of the Diancang Master, Lu Tianxiang spent nearly half a year to finally turn the Diancang Sect into her own people.

By the edge of Erhai,

Lu Tianxiang was swimming in the sea, her perfect figure revealed without reserve, captivating curves that bewitched onlookers, paired with a delicate, flawless face and an aloof demeanor that plunged people into deep addiction.

Erhai was not large, only a few miles in circumference, but it was exceptionally clear and pristine with quality waters and even more beautiful scenery. It was a place once often visited by the female disciples of the Diancang Sect.

After taking control of the Diancang Sect, Lu Tianxiang declared Erhai a

forbidden ground and set up a formation, reserving it solely for her own use.

As the Sect Hierarch of the White Lotus Cult, Lu Tianxiang had had no choice but to be high-profile, causing turmoil throughout the Da Qian; however, after seizing control of the Diancang Sect, she kept an extremely low profile, scarcely showing herself, and spending all her days in Erhai.

The Diancang Master would manage the entire sect and, in secret, spread her faith throughout Qingyun Manor, even slowly into the nearby Dingyuan Manor and Dingji Manor.

As the ultimate beneficiary of the faith, all she needed to do was hunker down in Erhai, from where she could also gauge the general state of the faith spread through the halo of belief behind her head.

“Pff-”

Lu Tianxiang emerged from the Erhai, with scant clothing that barely covered the essentials. This place was forbidden to others, she was alone, so Lu Tianxiang wasn’t afraid of being seen.

She stood atop Erhai’s surface, walking step by step toward the shore. Her delicately flawless, stunningly beautiful face; adorable tangerine-like breasts; slender waist with no hint of excess fat; perfect peach-shaped rear; paired with snow-white, straight and long legs, and a pair of tender, crystal-like feet.

All of her was exposed under the sun, her skin white as milk, shining with an icy jade luster.

Behind her head glimmered a halo, faint and incomplete, roughly one-third solidified — the fruition of her half-year’s efforts.

In Lingjun City, Han Mansion.

With nothing else to do, Han Li once again took out the Shadow Leaving Stones of Jiang Baiye and Yun Miaoyi, enjoying the recorded scenes of the two women in various shameful poses, as well as the thrilling scenes of him teasing them.

Though nothing too illicit, Han Li still found it immensely entertaining, using it to pass the time.

Watching with appreciative eyes, he pondered that if he ever caught Yun Miaoyi and Jiang Baiye again, he would get serious, not letting them escape once more.

After watching the majority of it, a system notification rang in Han Li’s mind. He didn’t check it immediately, waiting until after he had finished enjoying the exciting scenes of the two women before taking a look.

“You have ninety descendants with cultivation talents, you’ve gained twenty years of cultivation, you’ve received a Seventh Grade Lifespan Extension Pill, and you’ve obtained thirty years of artifact refining experience.”

So this was it.

Han Li suddenly understood; half a month ago he had eighty-nine such descendants, and now, half a month later, his progeny had finally bred an offspring with the cultivation talent.

Immediately, Han Li absorbed the thirty years of artifact refining experience and, in a transformation, became a top seventh-grade Artifact Refiner.

“Alchemy, artifact refining, and formation abilities are finally at the same level.”

A smile surfaced on Han Li’s face, which meant he could now create various medicines and weapons for the Great Masters in the Gang Yuan Realm, and he could also study and set up killing and defensive formations against the Gang

Yuan Realm.

As his alchemy and artifact refining levels rose, the grade of medicines and weapons Han Family could sell to outsiders would also improve, inevitably bringing in a continuous stream of wealth.

However, he needed to find time to spread the news that his cultivation had reached the Gang Yuan Realm; otherwise, it would invite troublesome speculations.

After some thought, Han Li decided to wait longer. He could start refining the medicines and weapons for the Gang Yuan Realm now and store them away to sell in ten years.

“The Four Arts of Cultivation consist of alchemy, artifact refining, formations, and talisman crafting. Now that I’ve mastered the first three, when will I gain experience in talismans?” he wondered while watching the koi fish swimming in the pond.

Han Li then thought about the issue of talented descendants. The next milestone would be one hundred, and that was a significant threshold. No doubt, the system rewards would increase significantly.

Currently, he only had four hundred and forty-two descendants in total, quite a bit shy of five hundred, which would require nearly two more years of development.

As for cultivation years, he had amassed quite a sum, now surpassing one hundred and twenty years, only a bit more than two-thirds away from breaking through to the Hollow Void Stage and becoming a Grandmaster.

Suddenly, a new thought crossed Han Li’s mind: “Should I let Liu Yuexin, Li

Mingmeng, and the other concubines have another child?”

Indeed, women like Li Mingmeng did have this desire, but Han Li felt that three children were sufficient. He had plenty of time to increase his progeny and expand the Han Family’s lineage.

But now the situation was slightly different. Undercurrents were stirring in the Da Qian, and he wasn’t sure how much peaceful development time was left. Rapidly increasing his offspring was an advantage.

If each of the forty-odd concubines bore a child, that would mean forty more descendants. In a decade or so, they could further expand the family line and easily acquire a hundred more descendants..
