Chapter 189: Chapter 144 Strong Divine Soul, Equals with Jian Zi, The Secrets of the Cultivator System

Soon, Lu Sheng’s attention was captured by a mission.

[Intermediate Support Mission: The Baicheng Star domain of the Ten Thousand Laws Dao Sect is facing an invasion by the Void Insect Race, and two Hive Tyrants have emerged.]

[Mission Requirements: Tier 5 combat strength, kill the Hive Tyrants, and clear the Void Insect Race from Baicheng Star.]

[Mission Reward: 3500 Credits!]

As he looked at the mission briefing, Lu Sheng raised an eyebrow slightly.

"It’s a support request from the Ten Thousand Laws Dao Sect!"

Lu Sheng was a bit surprised.

In this part of the universe, the Human Federation has over a dozen allies, including the Ten Thousand Laws Dao Sect, which is supported by a Galactic Life Form.

Although there are many allies, the Human Federation has even more adversaries.

The beings of the Ten Thousand Laws Dao Sect are essentially human-like, with no significant differences in appearance compared to humans. The only distinction is that these beings are born with what is known as a Spirit Root.

These Spirit Roots are fundamental to the cultivation practices of the Ten Thousand Laws Dao Sect.

Because of this, the beings of the Ten Thousand Laws Dao Sect often refer to themselves as "Celestial Beings".

"Baicheng Star... should be within the domain of the Ten Thousand Sword Sect under the Ten Thousand Laws Dao Sect, right?"

As Lu Sheng read the mission details, information about the Ten Thousand Laws Dao Sect surfaced in his mind.

Although it’s called a sect, the Ten Thousand Laws Dao Sect is actually a large coalition of many smaller sects.

In this regard, it is somewhat similar to Star River University.

The difference is that the latter is composed of various academic factions forming a university system within the galaxy.

The former, on the other hand, consists of allied sects.

The Ten Thousand Sword Sect is one of the numerous sects under the Ten Thousand Laws Dao Sect.

Among the sects of the Ten Thousand Laws Dao Sect, the Ten Thousand Sword Sect is considered mid-level in strength.

Its status is comparable to the Life Factions of Star River University, with a Tier 7 United Cultivator as its guardian.

Although the Ten Thousand Laws Dao Sect and the Human Federation are allies, their relationship is limited to surface-level harmony; both sides still exploit each other.

When it comes to competing for interests, the friction between the two is not insignificant.

However, for the time being, the situation between the two sides remains relatively stable.

After pondering for a moment, Lu Sheng accepted the mission.

Soon after, the Life Factions sent the coordinates.

After receiving the location, Lu Sheng teleported directly from the space station of this star system to the star system where the Ten Thousand Laws Dao Sect is located. Then, through the sect’s Teleportation Array, he arrived at Baicheng Star within the Ten Thousand Sword Sect’s domain.

As soon as he entered Baicheng Star, towering peaks that pierced through the clouds came into view, resembling sharp swords.

Amidst these sword-like peaks were magnificent, ancient palaces, resembling the celestial abodes described in ancient novels.

"Who goes there!"

As soon as Lu Sheng, commanding the Heaven-piercer, reached Baicheng Star, a deep voice suddenly burst out.

The voice carried a pressure that bore down on Lu Sheng.

This pressure... could only be emitted by a Tier 5 expert.

Lu Sheng frowned slightly but showed little reaction. With the amplification of Heaven-piercer, a Tier 5 pressure was nothing to him.

Soon, a middle-aged man dressed in white robes, with an ancient sword on his back, flew toward Lu Sheng and appeared in his line of sight.

Behind the middle-aged man were several cultivators, also carrying swords and exuding Golden Core Cultivation, who looked at Lu Sheng with caution.

Without hesitation, Lu Sheng pulled out his mission proof and handed it over.

"Lu Sheng, student of Star River University from the Human Federation, here to complete a support mission!"

Lu Sheng spoke calmly.

The middle-aged man glanced at Lu Sheng’s mission proof, then looked intently at Lu Sheng, his eyes reflecting a trace of scrutiny.

"If I’m not mistaken, the support mission my sect issued is for Tier 5. You’re so young..."

Though the man didn’t finish his sentence, Lu Sheng understood the unspoken words.

"What do you propose?"

Lu Sheng asked coolly, gazing at the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man smiled faintly and said, "Such a young Tier 5... Even in our Ten Thousand Laws Dao Sect, that would be extraordinary. Please... demonstrate your strength."

His eyes showed a hint of disdain.

The cultivation techniques of the Ten Thousand Laws Dao Sect, though somewhat similar to those of the Human Federation’s cultivators, differ significantly at their core.

The techniques of the Ten Thousand Laws Dao Sect emphasize a solid foundation, so each realm is navigated diligently, albeit more slowly.

Conversely, the cultivation methods of the Human Federation focus on rapid elevation of cultivation levels, often at the expense of foundational stability.

As a result, their combat strength cannot match that of the practitioners of the Ten Thousand Laws Dao Sect at the same realm.

Hence, the middle-aged man held some contempt for the Federation’s cultivators.

Even though Lu Sheng was a Martial Artist, the middle-aged man doubted that someone so young could be at Tier 5.

Even if he was, his foundation would likely be flimsy.

"Demonstrate..."

Lu Sheng fixed his gaze on the middle-aged man.
