Realm-Hopping Martial Master-Chapter 558 - 323: Dao Yi Sect! Yi Meng Dao! Where is Jiang Shu?_2

Dao Artifacts have spirits, and every Dao Artifact is imbued with the presence of an Artifact Spirit. Even the weakest among them are comparable to the Vientiane Realm. Without the Artifact Spirit’s consent, these minor Primordial Pill Realm cultivators wouldn’t dare to tread lightly. This was true even though they were disciples of the True Martial Sect, and even though this Wanxiang Heavenly Sound Ship was a Dao Artifact of the True Martial Sect.

"You’re from Thunder Prison Peak, right? Your Senior Brother Jiang Shu hasn’t arrived yet, but we’ve contacted him. He said he’s on his way and should be here in a few days."

The one leading them was an elder from Bitter Sea Peak, Lord Bai Chuan. He possessed combat strength at the Nirvana Realm Peak. Although he had not advanced to the Vientiane Realm, he had mastered ten complete Tao Embryos. On the Nirvana Golden List of the Cang Mang Domain, he was ranked ninety-sixth.

He was also the elder in charge of the True Martial Sect’s designated battlefield this time. After all, Lords of the Vientiane Realm needed to garrison the main front, contending with the Demon Monarchs of the Demon Race, and thus couldn’t spare extra time to coordinate the overall battle strategy or allocate resources. Meanwhile, the most top-notch elders in the Nirvana Realm needed to seek opportunities on the battlefield for a chance to break through. Only someone like him, who could make it onto the Nirvana Golden List and thus keep the opportunistic Loose Cultivators in check, yet whose strength still required a period of cultivation before reaching the Vientiane Realm, was perfectly suited for this position of authority.

"The rewards our True Martial Sect can offer this time are quite substantial. You can post these reward lists inside Fuhai City, and I’ll award you ten Contribution Points for it."

Knowing that these three were on good terms with Jiang Shu, Lord Bai Chuan smiled and handed over three Jade Talismans, each recording the treasure exchange list. He casually issued an extremely simple task. Although he had made it onto the Nirvana Golden List, the most prestigious list below the Vientiane Realm in the Cang Mang Domain, he had always been stuck around the hundredth rank, and it might be difficult to advance further. Yet, with Jiang Shu’s talent, once he advanced to the Nirvana Realm and with the ongoing millennial war between the Human Clan and the Demon Race, he might seize an even more incredible opportunity. Within a few hundred years, Jiang Shu could make it onto the Nirvana Golden List, becoming a rival or even surpassing him. Such a genius was worth currying favor with in advance.

"This time, although Lord Zi Ji, the Peak Master of Thunder Prison Peak, isn’t here, he relayed a message to me. He said that if the disciples of Thunder Prison Peak encounter minor difficulties while carrying out tasks, they may seek help from Sea Light True Monarch."

"Sea Light True Monarch is usually in Fuhai City, and he understands all the diverse powers within it like the back of his hand. With his help, your tasks can be completed faster. More importantly, he is Lord Zi Ji’s disciple and your Senior Brother Jiang Shu’s second senior brother. Given your relationship with Jiang Shu, it shouldn’t be difficult for you to meet him."

After offering some more advice and seeing Lu Qingling and the others seem to understand, Lord Bai Chuan nodded without saying anything further. He saw other disciples behind the trio, waiting to approach him with questions. It was a good opportunity to assign some of the tasks at hand.

At this stage, a storm was brewing; the silhouettes of Demon Monarchs had already appeared on the distant horizon. The great war was on the verge of eruption, even affecting the Divine Power Conference held once every sixty years. Some Lords of the Vientiane Realm from various sects even suggested changing the venue of this Divine Power Conference to the Endless Sea, making it a series of battles. This would not only showcase the competition between sects but also the disciples’ combat against Demon Beasts.

Of course, none of this was set in stone. Lords of the Vientiane Realm couldn’t represent the will of an entire sect. Everything had to wait for the Supreme Sect Leader to speak before he, Bai Chuan, could be certain.

"Thank you, Elder." Lu Qingling, Xue Xuan, and Luo Yu bowed to Lord Bai Chuan and immediately sprang into action. They were all intelligent and naturally understood that the ten Contribution Points were not the most critical aspect of this task. The key was to establish contact with Sea Light True Monarch and secure a meeting in advance.

Compared to some Nirvana Realm elders who painstakingly cultivated within the sect, Sea Light True Monarch, having spent long periods in Fuhai City, knew many secrets of the Loose Cultivators—which factions were powerful and which were unscrupulous. Such information would enable Lu Qingling and the others to seek fortune and avoid disaster once the great war began: to collaborate with those they could and to keep their distance from those they should.

Once the war started, chaos would gradually ensue. Sometimes, enemies weren’t necessarily just Demon Beasts. As the elder in power who had experienced a war between the Human Clan and the Demon Race before, this point couldn’t be clearer to him.

"You, set up this formation on Golden Sand Island, ten thousand miles away." 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

"You, deliver this letter to the Fuhai City Lord’s Office."

"You, take this treasure exchange list from our True Martial Sect to the Heavenly Puppet Sect’s battlefield."

Watching disciple after disciple transform into streaks of light and approach, Lord Bai Chuan issued tasks one by one. These disciples, who had arrived earlier, were typically of average strength within their realm and unable to make it to the Divine Power Conference; they were just right for carrying out these tasks.

「Fuhai City.」

Transforming into three beams of light, Lu Qingling, Xue Xuan, and Luo Yu quickly posted the treasure exchange list in some conspicuous places. Disciples from other sects were not to be outdone, with some even speaking from high platforms about the special uses of their sect’s treasures.

Each of the Eight Great Sects had their specific treasures, attracting all sorts of Loose Cultivators. These Loose Cultivators formed cliques and continuously discussed the exchange of resources in anticipation of the wartime chaos.

"It seems the sects are quite generous this time! Look at the True Martial Sect—Heavenly Rank Techniques, Heavenly Rank materials, even Heavenly Rank Treasures are exchangeable. And Heavenly Rank Divine Powers bestowed by Lords of the Vientiane Realm are available too!"
