“A True Spirit Kunpeng?!”
“So, the sea area we are in is ruled by Kun Peng?”
Upon hearing this, Hua Siqing’s pupils constricted.
She had long known that Shattered Star Sea was extremely dangerous, a place where True Spirits clustered, teeming with powerful beings.
But, she had not realized that Fengxi Island was within the sea area ruled by Kun Peng.
This meant they had already been living within a territory governed by True Spirits.
“Correct.”
“However, you need not worry about anything.”
“Thus, our location is indeed within the Kun Peng Sea Area, ruled by Kun Peng.”
“But, because this sea area is simply too vast,”
“over 90 percent of it is an unmanageable terrain, not incorporated into their direct jurisdiction.”
“It is said that the central region of this sea area is where the True Spirit Kunpeng resides.”
“And Kun Peng’s affiliate clans also surround the central region, much like stars circling the moon.”
“As for other areas, they are simply too lazy to manage them.”
“Our location at Fengxi Island is on the edge of the Kun Peng Sea Area, a very remote place.”
“That’s why we seldom encounter the many super races of the Kun Peng Sea Area.”
Zhou Sui explained.
“I see.”
Bai Sujie and others nodded their heads, no wonder they had hardly encountered other clans in this sea area over the past hundred years—they were indeed in a desolate location, hardly considered by other clans.
“So, the clan ruling this sea area is the True Spirit race?”
Tao Qili spoke solemnly.
“Correct, it is the Tianpeng Clan ruling this sea area.”
“Their deity is the True Spirit Kunpeng.”
“As for the Blood Moon Tribe, Silver Wolf Tribe, and others, they are all affiliates of the Tianpeng Clan.”
Zhou Sui thought for a moment, immediately gathering this information from the memories of those Blood Moon Tribe cultivators.
Without a doubt, the Tianpeng Clan was the absolute overlord of this sea area, ruling countless islands and sea areas.
“The so-called True Spirit race actually refers to those whose deity is a True Spirit.”
After all, True Spirits are scarce in number, not likely forming a clan by themselves.
Yet, they also need help from others, hence they become deities of some clans.
In a way, these clans are actually a vast force controlled by the True Spirits.
And these clans flock to them willingly.
After all, being sheltered by True Spirits, their strength and status would improve exponentially.
Countless clans wish to serve under a True Spirit, yet not all are favored by them.
The Tianpeng Clan was also such.
They had gained the favor of True Spirit Kunpeng, thus acquiring the opportunity to serve Kunpeng.
Therefore, their strength was immensely formidable; reportedly, the clan nurtured hundreds of Mahayana Realm Cultivators.
Considerably stronger than other clans.
“What exactly is an affiliate clan?”
Shi Yuxi asked curiously.
“The so-called affiliates are basically clans that provide tributes to the Tianpeng Clan,”
“equivalent to the servants of servants.”
“Although Tianpeng Clan is indeed powerful, its numbers are small, and the Kun Peng Sea Area is boundless.”
“Even if they exerted themselves to the limit, they couldn’t possibly occupy all the islands.”
“So, managing to control a small part of the islands is already quite impressive.”
“That’s why they naturally need affiliates to assist them.”
“These affiliate clans need to help the Tianpeng Clan with tasks annually, collecting various treasures and materials.”
“At the same time, they also have to pay a certain level of tribute.”
“In exchange, the Tianpeng Clan also allows them to reside within the Kun Peng Sea Area, manage several Eighth Stage islands, and provides a certain degree of protection.”
“And these affiliate clans are naturally overjoyed, after all, to be sheltered by a True Spirit race; their safety is greatly secured, no longer fearing annihilation by other True Spirit races.”
Zhou Sui briefly explained the concept of affiliate clans.
“So that’s it, they are the servants of servants.”
“Although the Tianpeng Clan is a servant of the True Spirit Kunpeng, many affiliate clans are the servants of the Tianpeng Clan.”
Shi Yuxi suddenly understood, grasping the concept of affiliate clans immediately.
This was simply a massive clan system, intricately complicated like roots, entrenched in this sea area, forming a dense network of relationships.
“If that’s the case, can we survive in the Kun Peng Sea Area?”
“Must we become affiliates of the Tianpeng Clan in order to live in this sea area?”
Tao Qili couldn’t help but ask.
She felt that if that was the system, it would be particularly disadvantageous for the Human clan.
Once discovered by the clans of this sea area, the Human clan would likely be in imminent danger.
“Well, the Tianpeng Clan has very high standards; they wouldn’t take interest in the Human clan.”
“At least, a clan needs to have a Mahayana Realm Cultivator to qualify as their affiliate.”
“Without any Mahayana Realm Cultivators, in their eyes, they are merely as insignificant as mud on the ground.”
“Basically, they wouldn’t even have the qualification to become an affiliate clan.”
Zhou Sui spoke gravely.
“This!”
Upon hearing this, Bai Sujie, Shi Yuxi, and Tao Qili blinked.
They were initially reluctant to become someone else’s affiliate clan, to be enslaved by others.
Little did they know, they, the Human clan, wouldn’t even be considered by the other party.
Even to become an affiliate clan, it was conditional; they must produce a Mahayana Realm Cultivator.
The problem was that apart from the Human Emperor, there wasn’t a second Mahayana Realm Cultivator in the Human clan.
