Chapter 754: Chapter 356: Divinity Transformation Stage Spiritual Wine, Unifying the Canglan Sea Area, Observing the Heart with the Fourth Heart Eye_3 Chapter 754: Chapter 356: Divinity Transformation Stage Spiritual Wine, Unifying the Canglan Sea Area, Observing the Heart with the Fourth Heart Eye_3 “The Tianjian Sect, Xuanbao Tower, Sky Demon Sect, Sunset Sect and other Nascent Soul Sects have all succumbed to the Xuanhuang Sect.”
“They became vassal sects of the Xuanhuang Sect, and had to pay taxes to the Xuanhuang Sect every year.”
“Even more, the Xuanhuang Sect held control over the entire Canglan Sea area. All the islands were under their control.”
“Any family or sect that wanted to seize control of a Spirit Vein had to report to the Xuanhuang Sect.”
“Otherwise, it would be considered illegal occupation of a Spirit Vein and would be punished by the Xuanhuang Sect.”
“Light penalties would involve being banished to the frontier, whereas severe punishment meant total extermination.”
The senior members of the Bai family expressed their helplessness.
The changes over the past hundred years were simply too dramatic, completely different from before.
Previously, they could easily occupy third and fourth stage islands.”
But now, if they didn’t register with the Xuanhuang Sect, they would be considered an illegal organization and would be punished by the Xuanhuang Sect.”
“This is too tyrannical.”
“Although the Xuanhuang Sect is a Divinity Transformation Sect, this is way too much.”
“They are essentially collecting taxes from all Cultivators in the world. Who gave them such power?”
“Hasn’t anyone rebelled?”
Bai Hongzhi was so angry he was trembling all over.
He didn’t expect that, even after becoming a Nascent Soul Ancestor, he would still be bullied by the influence of a sect.”
“Of course, there were those who resisted and those who refused to pay taxes.”
“But how vicious is the Xuanhuang Sect?”
“They actually introduced a whistle-blower policy.”
“If someone reports an illegally occupied family or sect to the Xuanhuang Sect.”
“Then they would immediately receive a reward from the Xuanhuang Sect.”
“They could even receive ten percent of the family’s seized wealth.”
“When this policy was launched, many families were scared and terrified.”
“After all, no one could be sure there weren’t any traitors around them.”
“Once the tip-off succeeds, the benefits one could gain were simply too great.”
“And indeed, many people instantly reported these illegal families and sects.”
“As a result, they were all hunted down by the Xuanhuang Sect and exterminated.”
A senior member of the Bai family lamented.
Naturally, they also didn’t want to pay taxes, but facing the Xuanhuang Sect’s numerous policies, they were powerless and helpless. They had no choice but to comply.”
“Considering the vastness of the Canglan Sea, can the Xuanhuang Sect really control every corner?”
“Don’t they worry about people seeking revenge?”
“Even if the Xuanhuang Sect is a Divinity Transformation Sect with Divinity backing them.”
“Ordinary disciples or Cultivators would still die if they were attacked by other Cultivators.”
Bai Zhihong spoke sternly.
He firmly believed that the Xuanhuang Sect’s actions were too tyrannical, blatantly forcing everyone to rebel against them.”
Levying taxes on all Cultivators was nothing short of inciting a rebellion.”
“Ancestor, you’ve been in seclusion for so long that you may not know.”
“The Xuanhuang Sect possesses more than just three Divinity Transformation Cultivators.”
“It is said that the Xuanhuang Ancestor has mastered a beast-taming art that allows him to control myriad beasts.”
“Many fourth-stage Demonic Beasts have been tamed by the Xuanhuang Ancestor to serve as the sect’s Spirit Beast.”
“Now, the Xuanhuang Sect has over fifty thousand fourth-stage Spirit Beasts.”
“It’s these fourth-stage Spirit Beasts that have maintained order and control around the Canglan Sea.”
An elder of the Bai family said, evidently terrified.
Of course, the massive number of fourth-stage Spirit Beasts could be tamed.”
This was naturally due to Zhou Sui’s numerous clones.”
The clones were scattered throughout the Cultivation World, everywhere from the East Wastelands to the Western Wilderness Continent, Southern Wilderness Continent, Northern Wilderness Continent, and beyond.”
They were not just confined to the Canglan Sea.”
It could be said that these places were filled with a large number of fourth-stage Demonic Beasts wreaking havoc on human territories.”
Once discovered by Zhou Sui’s clones, they were personally subdued, underwent transformation, and were sown with Nightmare Seeds.”
As a result, numerous fourth-stage Demonic Beasts were tamed over the centuries, all of them becoming the mountain-protecting Spirit Beasts of the Xuanhuang Sect.”
“Yes, although the Ancestor has ascended to Nascent Soul, which is indeed formidable.”
“But times have changed.”
“To the Xuanhuang Sect, a Nascent Soul Ancestor no longer holds much significance.”
A different elder from the Bai family suggested tactfully.”
“What?!”
Upon hearing these words, Bai Zhihong’s face went pale. He was no fool and certainly knew what these words implied.”
If it had been one hundred years ago, a Nascent Soul Ancestor could indeed dominate one side and rule over millions of miles of marine territory.”
But now, the Xuanhuang Sect had risen out of nowhere, commanded over forty thousand fourth-stage Spirit Beasts and wielded a terrifying amount of power.”
He was merely a recently ascended Nascent Soul, a Human Cultivator.”
If he offended the Xuanhuang Sect, he would most likely be crushed into ashes the next day.”
Even though his power was still formidable, his status wasn’t considered too high-ranking.”
At least, the Xuanhuang Sect wouldn’t pay him much attentions.”
“What’s even more terrifying is that the Xuanhuang Ancestor is proficient in the art of Divination and tracing.”
“Anyone who offended the Xuanhuang Ancestor or the Xuanhuang Sect wouldn’t be able to escape their pursuit.”
“In the past, there were some Demon Cultivators who, believing in their unparalleled ability to hide and the vastness of the Canglan Sea, thought they could escape unscathed even if they offended the Xuanhuang Sect.”
“However, the Xuanhuang Ancestor personally performed a divination and was able to pinpoint their location immediately and capture them.”
“After that, no one dared to secretly attack the Xuanhuang Sect’s disciples unless they had a death wish”
Another elder from the Bai family advised tactfully.
The option of secretly attacking the Xuanhuang Sect’s cultivators was off the table.”
Once they made a move, they were doomed.”
Wherever they tried to hide, death seemed to be the only outcome.”
