System's Super Sect-Chapter 880 - 833: The Immortal Sect’s Grand Recruitment Plan Begins (8,000 Words)
After speaking, Qin Shan felt a hidden sense of delight.
It should be known that standing before him were all Earth Unrestricted experts, legendary beings at Heaven and Earth Lake, and top-tier fighters in a grand world like Heaven-Gazing Gorge. Yet, at this moment, they were taking his words seriously.
This sense of satisfaction was no less than wielding a magical artifact while watching a movie.
Recalling back when he was merely a minor figure on Flying Fish Island, not even considered a significant personage in East Lake.
But now?
Thinking about this, a sense of honor arose from his heart, and as he gazed at the Immortal Sect Sword Stele below the stairs, an immense love also emerged.
This life, he was born a person of the Immortal Sect, and in death, he must also be the guardian spirit of the Immortal Sect!
Qin Shan emphasized once again, "Remember, only a quarter of an hour! If you're late, don't blame the Immortal Sect for denying you a chance to live."
The 17 Earth Unrestricted experts had rather unpleasant expressions, as no one was willing to nod; after all, the pride of being Earth Unrestricted remained in them. They all glanced at the sky, then swiftly transformed into startling rainbows, flying up into the azure sky, heading toward subordinates who had long since fled to unknown locations.
Cao Tianjue of Baiyue City and his group hurried back to their clan, ordering their subordinates to gather 400,000 white crystals even if they had to sell everything.
Such an enormous sum made several major forces struggle for a while.
400,000.
Seven days!
It's difficult!
However, this was not the most concerning matter for these forces. What they worried about was the safety of leaders like Cao Tianjue.
"Clan Leader, let us go in your place!"
"Clan Leader, your safety is far more crucial than our lives; you must not go up the mountain. Who knows if the Immortal Sect will go back on their word!"
After Cao Tianjue returned home and explained the situation, the Elders, all frowning, were eager to persuade him to stay.
However, Cao Tianjue sighed deeply and said something that left everyone silent.
"If it weren't for not wanting you all to die miserably, I would have already fled."
After speaking, Cao Tianjue transformed into a startling rainbow, flying towards the Immortal Sect.
Once Cao Tianjue left, the Elders looked at each other, then turned their grief and anger into strength, beginning to gather the 400,000 white crystals with all their might.
Other forces did the same, beginning to gather white crystals with all their strength immediately after their Earth Unrestricted leaders left an instruction.
White crystals, being both a consumable resource and currency, were hardly stockpiled even by Five-star Influences. A seven-day period was challenging for anyone. However, in order not to see their own leaders meet a tragic end, the forces had no choice but to exhaust all resources.
A quarter of an hour later, the 17 returned to the base of the Thousand Layers of the Immortal Sect without a single one missing.
The 17 calmly stood at the foot of the mountain, looking up at the towering Yunlan Mountain, and at Elder Qin Shan, whose face showed satisfaction.
...
As for those who came to watch near Star Sword Mountain, seeing the matter concluded so swiftly, they didn't feel disappointed but rather unsatisfied with the show.
In fact, this was extremely satisfying.
34 Earth Unrestricted experts, half perished at Star Sword Mountain.
Such a grand spectacle was rarely seen even in hundreds of years.
For a time, countless loose cultivators vowed to join the Immortal Sect, just waiting for the Immortal Sect to announce another recruitment.
And some, thick-skinned, went directly to kneel at the foot of the Immortal Sect.
Ready to win approval by kneeling!
But it turned out some people were overthinking.
As people gradually dispersed, everyone steeped in shock, could not come to terms with it, and went home to eagerly share the event with everyone they knew. In a short time, one spread to ten, ten to a hundred… an endless stream of people came to know about this event.
Just seven days, yet everyone across the 14 cities knew of the Immortal Sect's strength, and that there was an Upper Realm expert above the Immortal Sect.
Those Five-star Influences without Earth Unrestricted experts in charge were all extremely anxious, knowing an endless shadowy future awaited them, as they understood that even if the Immortal Sect was disinclined to bother them, countless people would stab them in the back. 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖
Those forces whose descendants had long since joined the Immortal Sect, on the other hand, were ecstatic, and immediately brought gifts to pay a visit.
Thus, a few more days passed.
News from the Red Leaf Sect finally exploded across the 14 cities, under Chen Xie's urging, leaving those Five-star Influences who had fled halfway unable to cover it up.
The Deputy Sect Leader of Dongjin, along with more than fifty Earth Unrestricted elders, were killed in the Red Leaf Sect's headquarters, an event that could shake the heavens and move ghosts to tears!
Only then did everyone come to realize where those Five-star Influences that vanished abruptly went.
It truly was as the Immortal Sect's elder said, they had been scared away!
From that point on, the Immortal Sect became a taboo-like existence.
Of course, this all came later.
...
Immortal Sect.
The 17 Earth Unrestricted experts followed Qin Shan up the steps, arriving at the peak of Yunlan Mountain step by step, and gradually, someone managed to confirm that this wasn't Star Sword Mountain at all, it merely looked like Star Sword Mountain from the outside.
There was a world within a world here!
Moreover, the Earth Unrestricted experts were curious about the unfamiliar trees around them, as even a tiny tree gave them an extraordinary feeling. They initially intended to probe with their perception, only to discover that it couldn't extend beyond three meters!
In the past, they could cover three meters in a single step!
Those Earth Unrestricted experts who discovered this first exchanged knowing glances with their companions but dared not speak, merely exchanging looks with deep meaning.
He was terrified.
He wished to find someone equally frightened.
As they walked, Qin Shan led them to what seemed like a wrong area, arriving at a place where laborers gathered to cultivate trees.
Dozens of Mountain Suppression Realm experts initially had their heads buried in work, while the prodigies from Red Leaf Sect complained while laboring. Upon hearing footsteps approaching, they couldn't help but straighten up in curiosity, looking towards the source of the sound.
