Chapter 640 - 349: Choosing a Spiritual Land (Part 1)
The admission procedures were handled quite smoothly, with Elder Qiu accompanying Li Mu to the Ancestral Hall to complete each step, and finally, he solemnly handed a sect token to Li Mu.
The cyan token was engraved with the four big characters "Profound Celestial Sword Sect," emitting a faint profound glow.
"Elder Li, this is your Elder Token, please keep it well," Elder Qiu said seriously.
"Thank you, Elder Qiu!" Li Mu took the token and immediately felt the profound power fluctuations within it, knowing that this token represented his identity and status within the sect, and more importantly, an honor.
Through Elder Qiu’s introduction during the admission process, Li Mu came to understand what kind of existence the Profound Celestial Sword Sect is—two Mahayana Daoist Monarchs, seven Integration Realm Sword Masters, three hundred Refining Void Elders, a thousand Divinity Transformation cultivators, nearly ten thousand Nascent Soul True Monarchs, countless disciples. However, disciples of lower realms are mostly in the Outer Sect or subordinate sects; without reaching the Nascent Soul Realm or possessing extraordinary talent, they cannot pass some strict assessments, and are unqualified to become core disciples of the Profound Celestial Sword Sect.
The entire Profound Celestial Sword Sect almost occupies the best Grotto Heaven Blessed Lands within the Central State Spirit Realm; its territory is incredibly vast, covering tens of millions of miles. In this vast Spirit Realm, nearly all top-grade Spirit Mountains and Spirit Veins belong to the Profound Celestial Sword Sect. These Spirit Mountains and Spirit Veins are not only Holy Lands for cultivation but also contain endless resources and opportunities... As an Honored Guest Elder, after completing the admission procedures, Li Mu is also eligible to receive a large allocation of top-grade Spirit Mountains as Spiritual Lands for establishing a residence for cultivation.
Additionally, the value of 300,000 points of sect contribution is incalculable; they can be exchanged for tens of thousands of portions of High-tier Spiritual Resources and even Dao Realm level cultivation technique inheritances within the Profound Celestial Sword Sect.
"Elder Li, since you’re new here, you might not yet be familiar with some rules and customs of the sect. If you have any questions or need help, feel free to come to me at any time. I will strive to assist you and provide support," Qiu Changming said to Li Mu kindly.
"Alright!" Li Mu smiled and nodded, putting away the Elder Token.
"Currently, the Sword Master is expecting you to perform the setup of the Ancient Teleportation Array in the Sea of Ten Thousand Stars and allocate contributions. As for selecting a Spirit Mountain, you can wait until you return, and I will personally accompany you to find a suitable top-grade Grotto Heaven Blessed Land," Elder Qiu said with a smile, looking warmly at Li Mu.
Sword Master Feng’s regard for Li Mu is also unmistakable; he did not hesitate to lower his status to accompany and persuade him to join the sect, enough to show Sword Master Feng’s esteem and trust in Li Mu.
As a senior of the Profound Celestial Sword Sect, Elder Qiu naturally did not dare to violate Sword Master Feng’s wishes, especially when this newly-appointed Honored Guest Elder possesses dual mastery in Artifact and Array, clearly demonstrating his value to them. Understanding Li Mu’s significance, Elder Qiu naturally dared not show the slightest neglect toward such a talent attracting attention.
"Alright! I will complete the setup of the Ancient Teleportation Array task as soon as possible and then come to find Elder Qiu!" Li Mu responded knowingly, looking forward with anticipation.
Soon, with Elder Qiu’s enthusiastic company, Li Mu met with Sword Master Feng again, and together, they traveled with Sword Control towards the Sea of Ten Thousand Stars.
Time flew by, and half a month passed.
At this moment, behind the Sword Heart Hall of the Profound Celestial Sword Sect, a dazzling light suddenly soared into the sky, illuminating the entire Sword Spirit Peak.
That was the array radiance erupting from the Ancient Teleportation Array, extremely powerful, seemingly capable of tearing through the heavens and earth. The mighty power of space-time caused the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Power around Sword Spirit Peak to fluctuate, attracting numerous nearby Divinity Transformation cultivators who were drawn to the suddenly responding Ancient Teleportation Array.
With a ’whoosh’, the array radiance dissipated abruptly, and a large amount of Space-Time Array Power was absorbed by the Jade Pendant. That powerful force seemed to be extracted in an instant, causing the entire Ancient Teleportation Array to fall into temporary calm.
As the teleportation array radiance vanished, two figures appeared on the vast Ancient Teleportation Array.
Li Mu and Sword Master Feng’s figures appeared at the center of the teleportation array, Sword Master Feng looking calm and collected, while Li Mu’s face was pale, and his body slightly trembled, seemingly having suffered a great impact.
At this moment, Li Mu felt only dizzy and light-headed, as if he might fall at any time. The space-time protective force of the teleportation array had disappeared, leaving behind emptiness and dizziness.
Li Mu, however, did not panic because of this; he closed his eyes, took several deep breaths, and relying on his powerful internal cultivation and the nourishment of the Spirit Devouring Body Nourishing Technique, quickly overcame the discomfort in his body, and his complexion returned to rosy.
The power of this Ancient Teleportation Array far exceeded any teleportation array Li Mu knew; its teleportation distance was several thousand times, even ten thousand times farther than that of the Illusionary God Sect’s Space-Time Teleportation Array. Correspondingly, the negative status was also much greater. Utilizing this teleportation array requires reaching a certain cultivation level!
"Greetings, Sword Master!"
Several elders of the Profound Celestial Sword Sect and a group of Divinity Transformation cultivators simultaneously saluted Sword Master Feng, greeting him together.
"Hmm!" Sword Master Feng smiled and waved his hand, signaling the cultivators to stop saluting.
"Sword Master, Master Li, the teleportation array has been set up!" Ling Tianxing looked at the appearing Li Mu in the array, and asked Sword Master Feng joyfully.
"Yes, Elder Ling. If you are interested, you can ride this teleportation array and visit the Sea of Ten Thousand Stars." Li Mu smiled at Ling Tianxing and the surrounding cultivators in response.
After pausing, Li Mu looked at the eager crowd and hurriedly spoke with a solemn reminder: "However, this Ancient Teleportation Array’s teleportation distance is extremely far; it requires sufficient cultivation and strength to command. If forcibly used, it might be unbearable due to the negative condition within, even posing a life-threatening risk."
