Chapter 240 Powerful
The awe brought by peak combat abilities and military strength had passed; now, came the public statements about construction and humankind.
For example, the current population of the Nine Cauldrons Sect.
The population that had cultivated Divine Sense.
As well as the numbers of high-rank cultivators and great cultivators.
Among these, the number of cultivators who had revised the Mysterious Origin Creation Technique was notably pointed out.
Great cultivators who had lived for dozens or hundreds of years were one thing.
As for the younger generation of cultivators...
Or rather, those cultivators younger than sixty, they were all practicing the Mysterious Origin Creation Technique. Enjoy more content from My Virtual Library Empire
Especially those under thirty; more than ninety percent of them were cultivating the Mysterious Origin Creation Technique.
It could be said that they embarked on the path of the Mysterious Origin Creation Technique directly from higher education institutions during their first encounters with cultivation.
Over a decade, those with the highest talent and who had received significant support had already stepped into the Foundation Establishment Realm.
The quite exceptional ones were at the high stage of Qi Refinement.
Of course, there were even more at the middle stage of Qi Refinement.
But these people were basically not within the Nine Cauldrons Sect's key observation scope anymore.
If they hadn't become high-rank cultivators in more than a decade, their chances of reaching Foundation Establishment were virtually nil.
Let alone advancing to the Unity Realm or Nascent Soul Realm.
...
"I remember more than a decade ago, including the people from subordinate worlds, the cultivators in our Nine Cauldrons Sect who had cultivated Divine Sense and could take posts in the Energy Department were less than three hundred million; and now... it has directly increased by four to five times, amounting to over one billion. This number is already comparable to the Golden Temple, Supreme Yin Sect, and Heavenly Law Pavilion – truly inconceivable!"
Zhang Ruosheng, the Hall Master of governmental affairs, said with some emotion as he looked at the data.
"It's still because the production of Spirit Stones has increased. Once the output of Spirit Stones rises, so does the productive capacity of society. Not only does the efficiency of Alchemy improve, but various cultivation support formations can also be used for extended periods. All these factors combined undoubtedly raise the average standard of our sect," Liang Qiu from the Logistics Hall responded.
"Wait another decade or eight years, and the number of cultivators who have trained Divine Sense will reach the peak of growth. By then, catching up to the Myriad Beasts Sect and the Immortal Alliance would probably not be that difficult," said Liang Qiu.
Zhang Ruosheng nodded in heartfelt agreement.
Murong Hui, who was nearby, smiled and said, "Once all of these data are made public, the upper echelons will indeed have a new understanding of the true strength of the Nine Cauldrons Sect at this moment. They will no longer feel inferior compared to the top Immortal Sects... In fact, countless disciples naturally have a tendency to fawn over the members of top Immortal Sects, feeling that their words represent correctness, and that everything about them is stronger."
Zhang Ruosheng and Liang Qiu recalled related reports they occasionally saw...
And nodded.
"Perhaps these data alone are not enough. We must truly clash with these top Immortal Sects. Only after showcasing the morale of our Nine Cauldrons Sect will the disciples be able to stand tall and straight when they are outside," Lou Yuyu shared his opinion.
And his words did indeed make various palace masters seriously contemplate the feasibility of it.
"Top Immortal Sects..."
The Limitless Star Palace, Myriad Beasts Sect, and Immortal Alliance were not easy to deal with at the moment.
But the Supreme Yin Sect, Heavenly Law Pavilion, and the obviously declining Golden Temple could possibly be approached.
The Golden Temple aside, its relationship with the Nine Cauldrons Sect was good.
The Nine Cauldrons Sect naturally wouldn't do anything to this kind of partner.
But the Supreme Yin Sect...
"I won't be participating, but I believe that once I announce the news that I am the fifth Dharma Phase Cultivator of the Cangwu Realm, the Immortal Alliance and Limitless Star Palace will definitely send their probes quickly. So, to avoid them from turning the Cangwu Great World into a battlefield and impacting the development of the Nine Cauldrons Sect, I better make a trip above the Nine Heavens."
Alkaid spoke, pausing briefly, "On one hand, I need to go to some stars above the Nine Heavens to refine their Star Cores to assist in my cultivation, to truly possess a physique of a Third Rank Star God as soon as possible. On the other hand, it will also give them a chance to test my true strength."
"Going above the Nine Heavens..."
Li Hanqiu frowned slightly, "Could that be somewhat dangerous?"
"Don't worry, our next step is to announce the economic data of the Nine Cauldrons Sect and create momentum for the grand parade. In one month, we'll reveal the details of the parade and extend invitations to the neighboring powers, including the Myriad Beasts Sect, Immortal Alliance, Limitless Star Palace, Supreme Yin Sect, Heavenly Law Pavilion, and Golden Temple..."
Alkaid spoke, pausing briefly again, "In two months, we'll announce the potential lineup of forces that may appear in this parade. Also, at this time, I will ascend to the Nine Heavens... If nothing unexpected happens, the one who will make a move against me should be Miller of the Immortal Alliance."
Li Hanqiu nodded in agreement.
Once Alkaid announces his identity as a Dharma Phase Cultivator, the Immortal Alliance will soon connect it to the attack that occurred at the headquarters of the Ascendant Tower years ago. It would be logical for Miller of the Sea-Calming Divine Needle from the Mi Family to act against him in a fit of rage.
"Since you are confident, then I am relieved."
Li Hanqiu said.
Alkaid smiled faintly.
After a moment of contemplation, he still made a gesture with his hands, and a phantom of the Spiritual Treasure, the Gathering and Parting Ring, appeared in the Void Divine Realm.
At the same time, he condensed the information about this Spiritual Treasure and transmitted it to Li Hanqiu, "Please take a look, True Person Li."
Li Hanqiu was taken aback for a moment, absorbing the related information about the Gathering and Parting Ring.
However, his contemplation lasted only briefly, his expression swiftly changing to one of shock.
"This is..."
He looked up abruptly at Alkaid and at the mock-up of the Spiritual Treasure, his eyes showing a hint of excitement, "Is it real?"
"Yes, I should be able to forge it next month. Once we have this Spiritual Treasure, it should stabilize your Golden Core significantly. There's still a bit more needed before you can wield it freely, but you won't have to constantly worry about your Golden Core collapsing during intense battles anymore..."
Alkaid said.
"Great! Great! This is wonderful!"
Li Hanqiu's eyes sparkled with brilliance, "Alkaid, do you realize what the emergence of this Spiritual Treasure means?"
"It means that all those with Crimson Red Golden Cores and Sunburst Golden Cores can basically be free from worries, at least... they won't have to fear life-threatening dangers due to instability of their Golden Cores in non-life-and-death fights."
Alkaid stated with a smile.
He was well aware of this point.
In the Cangwu Great World, the number of those with Crimson Red and Sunburst Golden Cores totaled in the dozens. Once the Gathering and Parting Ring was refined, it could even be sold to others in the future when circumstances allowed.
Selling one for three to five hundred million wasn't too much, right?
Just selling ten or eight could easily earn enough returns to raise his Immortal Path realm to above the Hollow Void.
"No! It's not just that simple! This Spiritual Treasure will be a strategic resource!"
Li Hanqiu spoke gravely.
Alkaid quickly grasped what he was getting at, "You mean..."
"Limitless Star Palace has close ties with the Immortal Alliance and Supreme Yin Sect, but... the Myriad Beasts Sect, Heavenly Law Pavilion, and Golden Temple – perhaps we can gain their support!"
Li Hanqiu looked at the virtual image of the Gathering and Parting Ring, "In the future, we could completely establish a new alliance led by Nine Cauldrons Sect, Myriad Beasts Sect, Heavenly Law Pavilion, and Golden Temple, to directly confront Limitless Star Palace, Immortal Alliance, and Supreme Yin Sect!"
He clenched his fist with force, "It's not an exaggeration to say that with the emergence of this Spiritual Treasure, the unification of Cangwu led by Nine Cauldrons Sect will no longer be just a dream!"
