Chapter 33: New Points, Imperial Court’s Action

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

For the next period of time, Zhang Xuan lived in the Mount Song Sect. He had an easy time every day.

He didn’t have much of a plan to begin with. After leaving the escort agency, he had been running around to collect medicinal herbs.

Now that the Mount Song Sect was helping him find the herbs, Zhang Xuan was naturally free.

Moreover, the Mount Song Sect was very active. In just a few days, they had helped him collect several supplementary herbs.

Although Zhang Xuan was free, he did not do nothing. He persisted in refining pills every day to increase his proficiency in refining pills.

However, the medicinal pills he refined only had some effect on ordinary people and ordinary martial arts practitioners. They were not very useful in other aspects.

A month passed in a flash. Apart from the main ingredients, Zhang Xuan had already collected half of the other supplementary ingredients. He was very satisfied with this efficiency.

If he were to collect them alone, not to mention a month, he might not even be able to gather these medicinal herbs in a year if he was unlucky.

This also made Zhang Xuan realize the importance of a sect. A person’s strength was ultimately limited. With more people, no matter what they did, they could achieve twice the result with half the effort.

Joining the Mount Song Sect as an elder would not only allow him to enjoy special treatment, but it would also save him the time to travel around. It was not bad.

However, Zhang Xuan knew very well that the comfort and peace he was enjoying was only temporary. It shouldn’t be long before this peace would be broken.

After all, the Great Zhou Empire had been in turmoil for the past month. After the imperial court gave the order to submit to the major sects, they were rejected by the major sects. This caused the imperial court to be furious and destroy many sects in the pugilistic world with lightning speed.

Facing the Imperial Court’s thunderous attack, some sects that had not been destroyed could not withstand the pressure and surrendered.

The remaining sects either joined the alliance or ran to very remote places to preserve the sects’ lineage.

As more and more sects joined the alliance, the strength of the alliance increased greatly. This made Yun Zhongtian very happy these days.

After all, Yun Zhongtian was the first leader of the alliance. The stronger the alliance, the more confident he would be in resisting the imperial court.

Moreover, the Mount Song Sect’s reputation had become even more resounding. This was a rare opportunity for Yun Zhongtian to strengthen the Mount Song Sect.

Although the imperial court was very dissatisfied with this alliance, they did not want to fight head-on. After using lightning-fast methods to eliminate some small sects, they issued an edict to the alliance and promised many benefits.

However, the alliance was not moved at all and directly rejected the imperial court’s decree. This also caused the atmosphere in the pugilistic world to be very tense.

However, Zhang Xuan did not care about this and did not pay much attention to it.

After all, he did not stay in the Mount Song Sect for power or fame. It was only because the Mount Song Sect could help him gather all the herbs needed to refine the Immortal Ascension Pill faster that he chose to join the Mount Song Sect.

However, no matter how tense the atmosphere outside was, Zhang Xuan still strolled around Mount Song Sect as usual every day. Apart from refining pills to increase his proficiency, he spent the rest of his time wandering around.

During these days in the Song Mountain Sect, every time Zhang Xuan passed by the Scripture Depository, he actually wanted to go in and take a look. After all, the “Connate Technique” that he had broken through to the Connate realm back then was the secret manual of the Song Mountain Sect.

With the foundation of the Mount Song Sect, there might be even more powerful martial arts. However, although he was the nominal elder of the Mount Song Sect, he could not enter and exit the Scripture Depository at will.

Today was the day that Zhang Xuan looked forward to the most.

At midnight, Zhang Xuan hurriedly refreshed the system interface.

[Host: Zhang Xuan]

[Cultivation technique: Martial Ancestor Long Fist, Connate Technique…]

[Points: 1]

Another year passed. This was Zhang Xuan’s third year here.

Zhang Xuan was very happy when he saw the points on the system interface.

The System Points were his trump card for continuously becoming stronger in this world. As long as he had enough points, no matter how profound a martial art was, he could deduce it with points.

As long as he had enough points and martial arts, there would be no bottleneck for Zhang Xuan, and the heights he could reach were limitless.

However, there were no suitable martial arts to deduce at the moment, so Zhang Xuan did not plan to use his points for the time being. Instead, he planned to keep them for now.

After all, the points would not expire. When he had the chance to obtain more profound martial arts, he would use them to deduce. Only then would it not be wasted.

The most important thing for Zhang Xuan now was to gather all the herbs needed to refine the Immortal Ascension Pill as soon as possible and refine it this morning.

The night passed uneventfully.

The next day, Zhang Xuan woke up as usual. After breakfast, he was about to go out for a walk when Yun Zhongtian suddenly came to find him.

“Sect Master Yun, what happened?”

Looking at Yun Zhongtian’s serious expression, Zhang Xuan asked in a deep voice.

These days, as more and more pugilistic world sects joined the alliance, Yun Zhongtian could be said to be beaming with joy.

Why did he suddenly look so miserable today?

Although Zhang Xuan did not care about the Mount Song Sect, the alliance, and the Imperial Court, he was still an elder of the Mount Song Sect. If something happened to the Mount Song Sect, it would affect him.

“The Imperial Court attacked one of the sects in the alliance. Overnight, they destroyed the Spirit Stream Sect, which had a first-rate expert holding down the fort. The entire sect was slaughtered, and no one survived.”

Yun Zhongtian’s voice was filled with endless anger and a trace of unwillingness and helplessness.

The alliance led by the few top sects and Mount Song Sect had absolute strength to contend with the Imperial Court. They originally thought that the Imperial Court would not act rashly against their alliance.

However, no one expected the Imperial Court to take action at all costs. It made the sects in the alliance without Connate experts holding down the fort panic.

After all, if the Imperial Court could destroy one, they could destroy the second. No one knew who the next target would be.

When the news of the Spirit Stream Sect’s destruction spread, all the major sects looked for Yun Zhongtian, the alliance leader, hoping that he would give them a plan to guarantee the safety of the other sects.

Yun Zhongtian discussed with a few Connate Realm experts in the alliance and finally came up with a plan. With the Connate Realm experts as the center, the major sects would gather together so that they could provide timely help when the sects were in danger.

Yun Zhongtian came to look for Zhang Xuan not only to tell him this news, but also to ask Zhang Xuan for help.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Xuan raised his eyebrows. He did not expect the Imperial Court to be so domineering.

However, he could understand. This realm was the Great Zhou Empire, and the Imperial Court was the greatest overlord. Those who tried to resist the Imperial Court would definitely be treated as enemies by the Imperial Court.

“What do you need me to do?”

Zhang Xuan pondered for a moment and asked calmly.

Yun Zhongtian didn’t waste any time and directly said,

“Due to the current situation, I need you to preside over a city.”
