Chapter 636: Chapter 548: Feast of Gluttony

"Unlike our side, where the subordinate forces are merely attached to the Big Shot of the sect, in this case, the sect elders are the sect elders, and the power holders are the power holders."

"In Devil’s Gate, these forces are established by the God Monarchs of the Bone Soul Sect for their patriarchs."

"And the purpose of these God Monarchs in establishing these forces is mostly not for training disciples, but more for disseminating their furnace cauldron cultivation methods, nurturing special Human Pills, and refining treasure pills..."

After a year of mingling in Devil’s Gate, even gaining control of one magic sect, the two became very familiar with the situation in Devil’s Gate.

In the process of questioning and answering, the Demon Child Elder had gradually understood the general situation.

"Do the ones in control of each group all have the control methods I gave you?" asked the Demonic Child, after gaining a basic understanding of the situation.

Demon Seeding was crucial, otherwise, they would not be able to establish the anchor points.

"Yes, Hall Master. And the heads of the covert groups in those second-rate forces were carefully chosen by us, and we have conferred them with the status of Shadow Charm Summon," replied Jiang Mingda.

Demonic Child nodded, and said, "In that case, the initial phase of this mission can be deemed complete. Do you plan to continue lurking here or return to the sect to rest?"

"If you want to return to the sect, I can escort you right away. If you want to continue lurking, you should be careful in the next few days and it would be best not to go out."

This statement was directed only at Jiang Mingda.

Demonic Child did not inquire about Kuang Weiping because even if he wanted to return, Demonic Child would not send him back easily.

Indeed, the Demonic Spirit Root that grew by consuming humans was not a simple matter.

Demonic Child didn’t want to test a person’s nature.

Nor did he want to ultimately have to take action himself and send such a pitiful man to the west."

It was better for everyone if he stayed here!

As long as he did not go mad, consuming humans could probably be considered a good deed!

Jiang Mingda glanced at Kuang Weiping, who remained silent.

"If I choose to stay, can I continue the mission and choose when to end it?" Not immediately replying, Jiang Mingda cautiously asked first.

Apparently, he had been captivated by Devil’s Gate’s ’benefits’— it could be considered a paradise for heterodox cultivators like him who had purification methods and were not greatly affected by pollution.

"The mission can continue, but the rewards won’t be as generous as before. But that’s a different matter if you scatter covert agents all over the Bone Soul Sect."

"As for when you choose to end, it’s up to you. But there may not be an opportunity for teleportation like this time if you want to leave later," said Demonic Child calmly.

Jiang Mingda, hearing this, let out a long sigh of relief, saying, "Then, I will continue to contribute to the sect for some more time."

"Alright!" Demonic Child expressed his approval in a straightforward manner, adding, "In the next few days, you should stay indoors."

Jiang Mingda and the rest felt a shiver run through them, knowing that something big was about to happen above. They responded immediately, "Disciples understand!"

Demonic Child nodded and was about to leave.

As he was turning around, he paused for a moment.

He looked at Kuang Weiping, who had remained silent, his touch of devil qi deep within him.

Kuang Weiping felt his gaze and bowed respectfully again.

"In less than two years, you have broken through from Mortal World to Perfected Realm. Do you remember my warning?" asked Demonic Child coldly.

"Reporting to Senior, Junior keeps it in mind all the time. Countless souls have died under Junior’s knife, but none of them were not heavy sinners," replied Kuang Weiping immediately.

Demonic Child gave him a glance and said, "I hope you always remember that. I don’t want to have regrets or face the day when I have to take action personally."

"Thank you for your instructions, Senior. I will always keep it in mind," replied Kuang Weiping earnestly.

Demonic Child looked at him, and Kuang Weiping bowed his head in respect. The atmosphere in the room became heavy for a moment.

In the next moment, Demonic Child vanished from the spot without uttering a word.

Kuang Weiping quietly let out a sigh of relief while Jiang Mingda said:

"See, I told you to take it easy but you didn’t believe me. Even the Demonic Child Hall Master advised you to slow down. You should really take it easy. Even though you have purification methods, you can’t go on like this. I don’t want to face a frenzied you someday."

Kuang Weiping was silent for a moment before he finally said, "I understand."

······

In the hinterland of Bone Soul Sect Southern Territory was the largest power, Burial Spirit Sect.

As a standard subordinate force of Bone Soul Sect, it was established by three Great Cultivators, and the sect almost had the final say in the Southern Territory, controlling the majority of the resources.

Even though the war was in the Southern Territory, the sect hadn’t seen much depletion, but had instead flourished.

Lower-level cultivators grew like crops, cut and grown again, with occasional changes in the middle level, and only the high-level cultivators had longevity like normal cultivators.

The whole Burial Spirit Sect was enormous, like a cultivation city with a population of millions, with countless cultivators living within.

It was a strange city of magic nestled amidst countless lofty mountains!

However, it was not easy to blend in there.

Because apart from the Eastern District mountains belonging to the Inner Sect, the other districts belonged to the Outer Sect, which was the reserve force and fodder for the Inner Sect.

The areas belonging to the mortal realm within the influence of the Burial Spirit Sect were also reserves and fodder for the sect.

······

Swallowing Wings Peak in the Northeast District of Burial Spirit Sect.

Chu Shiyong as an ordinary disciple of the sect, had originally thought he would waste his life away and after he turned sixty, would be expelled from the sect to perform sacrificial duties in some mortal town.

Unexpectedly, he had a great opportunity some days ago, after dawdling for forty years, in just a few months, he progressed from Child Peak to Peak Wine Ceremony.

A few days ago, he had just participated in a new round of entry into the Secret Realm, which helped them, the Swallowing Wings Peak, to obtain several Spirit Beads and hence he got the quota to be promoted to the Inner Sect.

You see, only dozens of people from the Peak Wine Ceremony who stood out from the Peak made it to acquire the Spirit Bead.

Yet he had become one of the biggest dark horses of this time.

Indeed, there were three dark horses this time. He had become the kind of person who was rarely seen in the sect, those who kept a low profile, secretly breaking through to become a priest, and suddenly appearing ready to surprise everyone.

The day had come when these individuals would be rewarded for their achievements, receive the true methods, be bestowed with the Spirit Bead, breakthrough to the Perfected Realm, and be promoted to the true teachings of the sect.

Although the rapid breakthrough of his cultivation had made him feel odd for a while, he couldn’t help but smile warmly, always feeling like there was something inside him.

However, he had found out that the cultivation method of the Burial Spirit Sect was actually like that. This was merely the cultivation of the Rune Seed in advance, proving that he had the capabilities of a Perfected.

After getting ready, Chu Shiyong stepped out of his residence.

Passing through several areas, he arrived at the mid-mountain waist, before the Night Banquet Square, and met up with everyone attending the banquet.

"Greetings, Fellow Daoist Chu!"

"Greetings, Fellow Daoist Lin!"

"Fellow Daoist Chu seems in good spirits, I guess the few days of rest after experiencing the Secret Realm have made some progress in your cultivation."

"Indeed, Fellow Daoist has now received the quota for the bead to enter your body. It looks like you will be promoted to the true teachings of the Perfected Realm tonight."

"When you become successful in the future, Fellow Daoist, please don’t forget us."

"······"

Surrounding were a large crowd of people, apart from the dozens of people who had come to receive their rewards, there were also many people who had failed the journey to the Secret Realm.

At this moment, dozens of people were surrounded by a large group of disciples, with various attempts to flatter and engage in conversation.

In this way, the crowd began to wait in the Banquet Square.

When the night had completely fallen, and the bright moon gradually rose.

Five divine rainbows quickly flew over the sky, and from within the divine rainbows, five people who seemed to have walked out of the moon palace appeared.

Among the fascinated crowd, five immortals, either handsome or graceful, softly landed on the main seats of the square.

Their immortal aura was so strong it made people deeply admire them.

"Greetings, True Person Baiyu!"

"Greetings, Martial Uncle of True Teachings!"

"······"

The people at the banquet who had barely settled stood up in salute.

Among the five, a man with a soft, exceedingly handsome face took the lead. After bumping heads with the five people, he said to the crowd:

"A few days ago, you all experienced a half-month journey to the Secret Realm and won fifty-seven Spirit Beads for our peak. It was truly hard work."

"Martial Uncle of the True Teachings is too kind!"

"It’s our duty to serve the peak."

"······"

The dozens of Peak Wine Ceremony participants who had the promotion quota this time all returned the salute in unison.

"I won’t waste words. Let’s begin tonight’s night banquet!"

In his words, he looked towards the four True Teachings from the Inner Sect.

One of the elders said, "This banquet on the ground is too shabby. Why don’t you all follow me to the Immortal Palace."

As he said, he raised his hand and said, "Cloud, come!"

As he moved, to everyone’s surprise, clouds appeared under their feet, carrying them into the air, floating several feet above the ground, like immortals in the clouds.

Various immortal palaces began to emerge around them.

Then another male Perfected said, "A feast without wine is a pity."

With those words, he waved his hand, and an abundance of spiritual wine and spirit fruits transformed into separate parts, flying to the tables of the cultivators below.

"Thank you, True Person Baiyu for the wine!" The cultivators thanked him.

But the true person didn’t say anything more. At this time, another female Perfected appeared, saying, "This banquet is too boring. Let me summon some fairies from the Immortal Palace to help us enjoy it."

As she spoke, she raised her hand.

Clouds flew down from the bright moon in the sky to the center of the banquet, stopping several meters above the ground.

Dozens of stunningly beautiful fairies started dancing on the stage formed by the clouds. The celestial music was intoxicating.

The Perfected moved their hands, attracting clouds and immortals. They truly seemed like the stories of cultivators drinking with immortals every day.

"How beautiful!"

"Summoning fairies from the heavenly palace with a wave of the hand, worthy of the true teachings of our sect!"

"So, our sect had a relationship like this!"

"······"

As the banquet started with music and dancing, the fairies swirled in the clouds, combined with the celestial music that was like a melody, it captivated the audience.

Especially after several disciples had downed a jug of strange spiritual wine that looked like blood, the entire banquet became wild and the cultivators were extremely excited.

Among the crowd, Chu Shiyong was part of it, as though he was one of them.
