Chapter 493: Chapter 52: Five True Immortal Heritages? Wind and Rain Tower!

It seems Boss Yunmiao holds a significant position in the Thousand Stars Alliance, as merely beating up Li Quan resulted in this outcome.

Zhong Heng couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.

However...

"Wind and Rain Tower..."

"Help me gather all available information about the Wind and Rain Tower."

"Yes, Master Zhong."

[You begin to review the information on the Wind and Rain Tower.]

[Wind and Rain Tower, an ancient colossal entity in Central State, once ruled almost the entire underground world of Central State.]

[Many loose cultivators worked part-time at the Wind and Rain Tower, either as assassins, accepting and publishing missions, or trading among themselves.]

[Everything, as long as there is money, whether people or objects, could be obtained in the Wind and Rain Tower.]

[However, at the founding of the Immortal Sect, the Wind and Rain Tower seemed to play an antagonist role.]

[Later, the Wind and Rain Tower fell apart, its main forces wiped out by a group of immortals from the Immortal Sect, leaving remnants struggling for survival in the shadows of Jiuzhou Cultivation Realm.]

[A dead camel is still bigger than a horse, the Wind and Rain Tower’s foundation was impressive enough to continuously attract new blood.]

[However, in Jiuzhou, at least in Central State, the Wind and Rain Tower is like a rat crossing the street, to be struck by any cultivator or sect, which is the punishment from the Immortal Sect.]

[This is explicitly written at the most prominent places of the major sects.]

[Even loose cultivators have vaguely heard of the Wind and Rain Tower, but it hardly ever roamed in the Qu Hong Cultivation Realm, with its many cultivators uninterested in such a distant existence.]

[Yunmiao Master accepted a mission.]

[Just one day later, she descended upon the Divine Strategy Pavilion, tossed you a token, declaring you can temporarily mobilize all resources of the Divine Strategy Pavilion.]

[Wait until information on the Wind and Rain Tower is found and then inform her to fight.]

[You are momentarily a bit overwhelmed.]

[However, you gradually learn about the inner workings of the Divine Strategy Pavilion.]

[Since you joined the Divine Strategy Pavilion, it has expanded considerably.]

[The Divine Strategy Pavilion at the Three Clouds Market is the main pavilion, with subdivisions in five other markets.]

[Currently, the Divine Strategy Pavilion has forty Foundation Establishment cultivators, including two fourth-grade to sixth-grade alchemists, four second-rank refiners, eleven second-rank talisman masters, nine second-rank puppet masters, and no third-tier to fourth-tier array masters. The remaining Foundation Establishment cultivators serve as guardians and stewards.]

Besides alchemists and array masters who have more detailed classifications due to their specialty, other Master of Hundred Arts are divided into first-rank corresponding to Qi Refining, and second-rank corresponding to Foundation Establishment, for differentiation.

[These high-end productive forces are distributed across the various divisions of the Divine Strategy Pavilion.]

[The remaining Qi Refining cultivators number over two hundred, most of whom are Master of Hundred Arts.]

[Adding Yunmiao Master, aside from having fewer members, the pavilion now rivaled former Golden Core Sects.]

[After receiving permission, you used part of the revenue’s spirit stones as bounties, and thus continue your analysis.]

[In the year 5031 of the New Source Era, you spent several months visiting the Nine Sects, seeking clues, especially those deep-rooted with Shallow Cloud Mountain like Qingfeng Valley, but all evidence suggested Qingfeng Valley is unlikely the mastermind.]

[In the year 5032 of the New Source Era, your cultivation was elevated to the Qi Refining Eighth Layer.]

[In the same year, Lin Wui seemingly had a new epiphany.]

[By the year 5035 of the New Source Era, after five years of searching, you still have no ideas, which makes sense, as if Wind and Rain Tower could be found easily, it wouldn’t be so closely monitored by the Immortal Sect.]

[In the year 5036 of the New Source Era, utilizing the River Map’s abilities, you successfully improved the Third-tier Gathering Spirit Array. The improved array became more lightweight and portable, with spirit-gathering ability enhanced by nearly fifty percent compared to the original version.]

[You finally manage to install the improved Third-tier Gathering Spirit Array on yourself.]

[In the same year, Lin Wui requested to go for training, seeing that her cultivation was at a critical point, you maneuver her into a developing and conquering Martial Artist Secret Realm, as flowers in a greenhouse cannot withstand the storm, you merely gifted her a few trump card artifacts.]

[With the Third-tier Gathering Spirit Array installed on yourself, you can almost compare with Three Spirit Roots.]

[This feeling is intoxicating, which is why you chose to delay your cultivation to improve the array.]

[You incidentally released the Gathering Spirit Array, causing a wave throughout the entire Qu Hong Cultivation Realm.]

[Orders began flooding in, so much so that you still had to leave time for cultivation, and eventually handed over the Array Map to the Hundred Stars Alliance, entrusting them to give it to the Array Master Alliance, gaining considerable resources in return.]

[In the year 5037 of the New Source Era, you received the Copper-level Array Master honor medal awarded by the Array Master Alliance.]

[Only array masters who have made effective and significant innovations or created new practical arrays are qualified to receive the Array Master Medal.]

[Ordinary third to fourth-tier array masters merely improved first to second-tier arrays to receive an Iron-level Array Master honor medal.]

[For a time, the name that had once been fading regained its fame.]

[In the year 5038 of the New Source Era, the Thousand Stars Alliance brought news, confirming that although Li Yue’s life token was not shattered, it was obscured by some method, officially issuing Li Yue’s death notification.]

[Given Yunmiao Master did not complete the mission, the alliance issued another punitive task, Yunmiao Master needs to work with the alliance to conquer a large Secret Realm populated by many Golden Core Masters.]

[Exploring Secret Realms is always fraught with danger, especially those disconnected from Jiuzhou for nearly twenty thousand years.]
