King of Creation-Chapter 634 - 626: Generous Rewards from the Divine Sect

Before the altar statue of the Sun and Moon Divine Sect, Sect Leader Jian Qianxiong was making the final mobilization to the martial artists who were about to participate in the Spirit Returning Assembly.

"I won’t elaborate on the importance of the Spirit Returning Assembly or that Supreme Spirit Vein! Today, what I want to talk about is the rewards for you!

If you can exhibit the might of our Sun and Moon Divine Sect in the Spirit Returning Assembly, if you can seize the right to use that Supreme Spirit Vein for five years, I will reward you handsomely, with rewards that are beyond your imagination!"

Ye Zhen, Nian Xinghe, Zuo Xiong, Yub Hea, and Zhuang Ling, who stood side by side in front of the statue, had their eyes light up simultaneously. They participated in this life-threatening Spirit Returning Assembly to make a name for themselves, and secondly, for the rewards.

The rewards for each Spirit Returning Assembly were incredibly generous. Aside from the official rewards from the Assembly itself, each major power also promised substantial rewards internally. Just getting one or two of those rewards could greatly improve one’s combat power or status, elevating them among the top tiers of the martial artist community.

"First, anyone who passes through the Spirit Vein Trial Ground and qualifies for the second Spirit Points Race will be immediately promoted to Divine Sect Master or Deputy Hall Master of each hall upon return. They will have unrestricted access to Cultivation within the High Grade Spirit Veins and will enjoy the treatment of a regular Hall Master!"

The mere first reward already made the five aspiring participants of the Spirit Returning Assembly’s eyes shine brilliantly, and even the Sun and Moon Divine Guards standing not far away felt envious.

Even for them, the core guards of the Divine Sect, the time they could cultivate in the High Grade Spirit Institute each month was only twenty days.

Do not underestimate the difference of ten days. Being able to cultivate indefinitely in the High Grade Spirit Institute meant the opportunity to engage in prolonged intensive training without being interrupted after twenty days and expelled!

Moreover, they would enjoy the benefits of regular Hall Masters, which included Spirit Crystals, Pills, Spirit Plants, and Spirit Wine—tangible and substantial wealth.

"Second, no matter who it is, if they score over fifty points in the Spirit Points Ranking Match, when they return, they can choose any Martial Skill from the Divine Sect’s secret reserves, a Heavenly Level Middle Grade Cultivation Technique, be it Martial Skill, secret technique, or others!"

At this point, Sect Leader Jian Qianxiong suddenly smiled, "How about it, are you a bit disappointed with this reward?"

"Don’t be disappointed; these rewards are just the basics. As long as you can score first in the Spirit Returning Assembly and reclaim the right to use the Supreme Spirit Vein for five years, I will grant you the right to pay homage to the Divine Sect’s statue!

Not only that, if you can emerge victorious in the Spirit Returning Assembly, upon your return, each of you will have the opportunity to enter the Supreme Spirit Vein and undergo two months of intensive training each year!

Furthermore, based on your points scored at the Spirit Returning Assembly, each of you will have the chance to refine and comprehend in the Sun and Moon Divine Altar of our Sun and Moon Divine Sect upon your return!

There’s no need for me to explain about the Sun and Moon Divine Altar, right? In the entire Divine Sect, there are no more than ten people who are qualified to enter and train at the Divine Altar.

In addition, as long as you win in the Spirit Returning Assembly, each of you will enjoy the treatment of a Vice Sect Hierarch upon your return! Don’t get me wrong, it’s the treatment of a Vice Sect Hierarch!"

At this, Sect Leader Jian Qianxiong suddenly raised his hand and shouted, "Do these rewards excite you, do you like them?"

"We like them!"

The five voices cried out in unison, with even Ye Zhen’s eyes showing a hint of frenzy. Putting everything else aside, just the entry into the Sun and Moon Divine Altar was highly anticipated.

The Sun and Moon Divine Altar was the treasured relic of the Sun and Moon Divine Sect. It was said that the Sun and Moon Qiankun Divine Power secretly cultivated by successive sect leaders originated from the Divine Altar, and the altar was also extremely beneficial to the Vein Forging Realm.

Besides the Divine Altar, the chance to cultivate in the seized Supreme Spirit Vein was another benefit that made everyone envious. The Cultivation effects of High Grade Spirit Veins were already fierce, so how much more potent could the effects of a Supreme Spirit Vein be?

The mere thought was tantalizing.

What actually delighted Ye Zhen the most was the right to pay homage to the Sun and Moon Divine Sect’s statue.

Ever since Ye Zhen discovered that the Mirage Dragon Pearl seemed to be connected to the statue worshipped by the Sun and Moon Divine Sect, he had been wanting to investigate, but never had the opportunity.

Even with the Hundred Transformations Thousand Shadows Robe, it was impossible for Ye Zhen to approach the worshipped statue stealthily. The Divine Sect’s altar was definitely the most heavily guarded place.

Twelve Divine Guards guarded this place day and night, and it was impossible for anyone to approach stealthily.

Not to mention enjoying the treatment of a Vice Sect Hierarch.

Within the entire Divine Sect, the treatment of the two Vice Sect Hierarchs was the best after some of the Elders, something that even Fengh Qingyue, Hee Yangxin, and other Hall Masters and commanders could not compare with.

In fact, not only Ye Zhen and the other four, but even the several Hall Masters, commanders, and all present Sun and Moon Divine Guards showed envious expressions, wishing they were talented young cultivators with the qualifications to participate in this Spirit Returning Assembly.

"Do you like it?" The corners of Sect Leader Jian Qianxiong’s mouth suddenly curled up, "But that’s not all! If you emerge as champions of the Spirit Returning Assembly, I will prepare a mysterious grand prize for you!

A mysterious grand prize that will surpass your imagination!"

The eyes of Ye Zhen, Nian Xinghe, Zuo Xiong, Yub Hea, and Zhuang Ling heated up simultaneously. What could a mysterious grand prize be, one that the sect leader mentioned so solemnly?

"What, do you really want to know and receive these rewards?" Sect Leader Jian Qianxiong raised both hands as his demeanour suddenly became impassioned, "If you want these rewards, then go and fight for your lives! Show your full strength, and let your courage win you these rewards!

Rewards are always prepared for the victor! Do you have the confidence?"

"Yes!"

"Louder!"

"Yes!!!"

Hearing the shout that pierced through the clouds, Sect Leader Jian Qianxiong finally revealed a satisfied smile, waved his large hand, and declared, "Depart!"

A Six-Winged Green Light Cicada, flapping its gigantic wings, slowly descended onto the very center of the ritual altar. The vast body occupied most of the territory of the altar in a blink.

What was most astonishing, however, was the terrifying aura inadvertently emitted by the Six-Winged Green Light Cicada, forcing Ye Zhen and the others to keep retreating.

The Six-Winged Green Light Cicada was a Heavenly Level High Grade Demon Beast—a Demon Beast of this rank was equivalent to a strong practitioner at the Eighth or Ninth Stage of the Vein Forging Realm.

Sect Leader Jian Qianxiong was the first to step onto the Six-Winged Green Light Cicada. He beckoned, and Tian Guizhang, Grand Commander Jio Yuanxiu, Head of the Inner Affairs Hall Zhu Ling, Third Commander Hee Yangxin, Yua Hanjing, Fengh Qingyue, along with Ye Zhen and others, filed aboard one by one. Apart from them, another eighteen members of the Sunshine Hall accompanied them. As for the others, naturally, they stayed behind to guard the Divine Sect!

With a signal from Sect Leader Jian Qianxiong, the Six-Winged Green Light Cicada’s wings quivered slightly, and it suddenly soared into the sky, disappearing in the blink of an eye, leaving Vice Sect Hierarch Yao Sen on the ground gritting his teeth in envy.

Because the candidate he recommended, Sang Boquan, was not selected, he could only stay behind and guard the Divine Sect. Don’t think it was some enviable task, staying back to guard the Divine Sect. Should anything happen, it would be normal, but should there be an accident, it would be his responsibility—Yao Sen’s responsibility.

Furthermore, the Sect Leader was constantly cultivating throughout the seasons, and even they, the high-level officials of the Divine Sect, rarely had the opportunity to accompany him. This time, however, Tian Guizhang had the chance to stay close to the Sect Leader, the benefits of which were obvious.

However, there was nothing he could do about it.

"The Supreme Spirit Vein on Immortal Light Mountain, some sixty thousand miles away from Qinglan Martial City, should take about three hours to reach aboard the Six-Winged Green Light Cicada. You all should rest for now. Soon after our arrival, you will have to enter the trial," declared Sect Leader Jian Qianxiong.

Ye Zhen was astounded. A journey of sixty thousand miles and the Six-Winged Green Light Cicada would only need three hours to arrive—that was how fast? Twenty thousand miles per hour!

Moreover, looking at the Six-Winged Green Light Cicada, this speed was still not its limit. Ye Zhen estimated that, should the cicada burst forth at full speed, in one hour, its limit could potentially reach twenty-five to thirty thousand miles.

This maximum speed was twice that of the Cloud Winged Tiger King Kitten, and that was with the Cloud Winged Tiger King Kitten bolstered by the War Soul Blood Flag.

Of course, the main reason was the huge difference in cultivation levels: one was an Upper-grade Earth Level, and the other, a Heavenly Level High Grade—far apart indeed. Ye Zhen speculated that if the Cloud Winged Tiger King Kitten’s cultivation could reach the Heavenly Level High Grade, its speed wouldn’t differ much from the Six-Winged Green Light Cicada’s.

This was also the reason why Ye Zhen was doing everything possible to help the Cloud Winged Tiger King Kitten break through its Bloodline Shackles and advance. Without further advancement, Ye Zhen feared there would only be one option left...

"Hmm?"

Suddenly, Sect Leader Jian Qianxiong, who stood proudly against the wind on the cicada’s head, let out a cold hum. Divine Light, a foot long, burst from his eyes, sweeping across the void behind him.

His gaze inadvertently passed over Ye Zhen, and in an instant, it made Ye Zhen feel as if he was completely exposed, jolting him awake from his restful state.

"Sect Leader, did you discover something?" Great Commander Jio Yuanxiu asked nervously, as the Sect Leader’s actions were a bit unusual.

The Divine Light retracted from his eyes, and after surveying the surroundings, Sect Leader Jian Qianxiong shook his head in confusion, "Nothing, it just feels a bit... odd?"

"Odd?"

"For a split second just now, I seemed to sense an unusual power fluctuation, as if it were trailing behind us. Yet upon closer investigation, there was nothing to be found!" Sect Leader Jian Qianxiong explained.

The complexion of Great Commander Jio Yuanxiu changed. Any power fluctuation that could make the Sect Leader wary was definitely not ordinary.

"Sect Leader, should I lead some people to search the area behind us?" Great Commander Jio Yuanxiu offered.

"No need!"

Sect Leader Jian Qianxiong shook his head. "It could just be an aberration of the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi within the void. With me here, who would dare to cause trouble?"

"Indeed!"

Even Ye Zhen had not noticed that the source of the unusual power fluctuation detected by Sect Leader Jian Qianxiong actually originated from within his embrace. On the tail of his Cloud Winged Tiger King Kitten, a tiny strand of Qinglight flickered slightly. novelbuddy.cσ๓

It was nearly imperceptible, and the fluctuation was incredibly weak, which was why Sect Leader Jian Qianxiong felt something amiss.

The three hours passed in the blink of an eye, and Grand Commander Jio Yuanxiu called out sharply, "We’re here, wake up!"

His voice instantly awakened Ye Zhen, Nian Xinghe, and the others from their restful state.

The moment Ye Zhen opened his eyes, the dazzling lights and colors before him left him stunned.
