System's Super Sect Chapter 1522 - 1282: Reward: World-Class Realm Territory

After putting away the Golden Armor Shield, Wen Ping’s gaze fell on the spot where Yao Ri had fallen, revealing a hint of expectation in his eyes.

Because there were now many shards of Primordial Vast Power there, darting around like headless flies. Unlike before, after refining a strand of Primordial Vast Power, Wen Ping’s body automatically generated a longing whenever he saw more of it.

Like holding back for ten days or half a month.

The next moment, those broken strands of Primordial Vast Power were directly controlled by an invisible force from within the Sect, and then they quickly regrouped.

[Detected a large amount of broken Primordial Vast Power remaining in the Sect, clearing completed!]

[Currently merging the broken Primordial Vast Power...]

[Merging completed!]

[Acquired: Seventeen complete strands of Primordial Vast Power.]

Seeing the sequential pop-ups in front of him, Wen Ping smiled with satisfaction, "With the gains from killing Celestial Radiance Transformation and the others, I now have over fifty strands of Primordial Vast Power in hand. Although still far from the thousand needed to enter the Primordial Vast Realm, these fifty strands are enough to advance my power several levels. Before learning new moves of the Cyan Lotus Sword, facing Tian Wuxin outside the Sect should not be daunting."

With that, Wen Ping contentedly stored away all the Primordial Vast Power, then headed directly to the Abyss of Knowledge, continuing to refine the earlier acquired Primordial Vast Power, while quietly awaiting the end of the battle over Longze Domain Lord’s Mansion between Prince Longyang’s trio.

However, with the power of Prince Longyang’s trio, killing the Southern Guardian King and his ally in a short time was definitely unrealistic.

Though Si Haixian had the Vortex Map he granted, allowing him the ability to exhaust Upper Realm with Middle Realm, he was, after all, new to the Upper Realm and somewhat lacking in foundation compared to the Southern Guardian King.

As for Prince Longyang and Sikong Zhuxing, there’s no need to elaborate. The former had just joined the Immortal Sect, and even within the Upper Realm wasn’t considered very strong, while Sikong Zhuxing was slightly better, but just slightly. Even if they worked together, they could only go fifty-fifty against the Southern Guardian King.

If it weren’t for the three requesting to go on their own, and his own desire to temper them, he wouldn’t have let them leave the Sect.

After all, all of them were on the Celestial Ranking.

Ranked too low, he’d lose face as the Immortal Sect Sect Leader.

Thus, as Wen Ping waited quietly, the fierce battle over Longze Domain Lord’s Mansion lasted a full seven or eight hours. From day to night, and then from night to day, the Southern Guardian King and the Western Guardian King began to show signs of defeat.

Facing Si Haixian, the Western Guardian King was already severely injured, with several spots on his Spirit Body showing ghastly white bones. His Spiritual Power was almost entirely exhausted, now only able to use some Lower Grade Vein Techniques to fend off Si Haixian.

"I was wrong! I surrender... I surrender!"

Once again blasted away by Si Haixian, as Si Haixian stabilized his form, the Western Guardian King straightforwardly tossed aside the weapon in his hand.

Seeing this, Si Haixian slowly halted, looking with disdain at the Western Guardian King’s decisiveness, coldly saying, "Knowing this earlier, why bother initially?"

"It was youthful ignorance back then, thank you Prince Zhenyou for waking me up. From now on, I will certainly follow you three!" With that, the Western Guardian King forced a repentant expression, finishing his statement with deep, relieved breaths.

From afar, the Southern Guardian King’s curses followed.

"Trash!"

The Western Guardian King cast a mocking glance at the gradually struggling Southern Guardian King, rolling his eyes, "What do you know... staying alive is most important. Moreover, there’s no one else here, I just want to live, what’s wrong with that?"

The outcome was decided, why persist?

Kneeling to one is still kneeling.

Just as Si Haixian was about to continue rushing forward, Sikong Zhuxing’s voice came through, "Help us kill the Southern Guardian King, and you can remain the Western Guardian King!"

"Really?"

The Southern Guardian King’s expression tightened.

Si Haixian also looked curiously at Sikong Zhuxing, pausing mid-air.

Prince Longyang gestured for Si Haixian to halt, continuing the dialogue, "Of course, it’s true. As for past matters, this Prince can let bygones be bygones, but if you wish to pledge allegiance to this Prince, you must show some sincerity, right? Mere words are not enough!"

"Give me a moment!" With a thought, the Southern Guardian King retrieved from his Storage Ring a scarlet fruit with ten black vortices on its surface.

If a powerful Spiritual Cuisine Master were present, they would surely know what it was.

Its name was ultimately irrelevant.

One must only know what the ten black vortices represent—a black vortex signifies a century; ten vortices signify a millennium.

This was a millennium-aged celestial material and treasure.

After swallowing it in one gulp, the Southern Guardian King opened the Meridian Gate, frantically digesting the millennia-aged celestial material and treasure within.

Within a hundred breaths, the wounds on his Spirit Body began to recover at a speed visible to the naked eye, and his Spiritual Power also began to replenish.

A quarter-hour later, his Spiritual Power had mostly recovered. Not waiting for Prince Longyang’s trio to speak, he charged towards the Southern Guardian King.

On his last leg, the Southern Guardian King, whose heart had turned to ashes, saw this and, with hair standing on end, roared angrily, ready to rend the Western Guardian King to shreds.

Yet faced with the assault from the four of them, the furious Southern Guardian King couldn’t possibly unleash power to contend with four people.

In less than a quarter-hour, the Southern Guardian King was beheaded. Although he had a chance to escape, the Western Guardian King specifically targeted his hand, chopping off his arm and snatching the Storage Ring. Without that escape treasure, the Southern Guardian King could only await death.

It’s worth noting that the final blow was personally dealt by the Western Guardian King.

"Brother, rest assured, I’ll take good care of your wives and family." After dealing with the Southern Guardian King, the Western Guardian King ingratiatingly smiled at Prince Longyang’s trio.

Afterwards, Prince Longyang kept his promise, giving the Western Guardian King a comforting pat on the shoulder, which deeply moved the Western Guardian King, who then swore his undying loyalty. Beside him, Sikong Zhuxing couldn’t help but laugh, turning into a streak of light and heading towards the Domain Lord’s Mansion.

Only Si Haixian, with eyes still cold, looked at the Western Guardian King, and without waiting for the Western Guardian King to pay respect, turned into a streak of light chasing Sikong Zhuxing.

"You’re really considering using someone like that?"

"Use him, why not use him?" Sikong Zhuxing straightforwardly replied.

Si Haixian said speechlessly, "I really don’t get what you two are thinking. Such a cowardly person, he’ll be the first to defect in a critical moment. There’s no need to spare his life!"

"Different people have different uses. Since he’s a scoundrel, let him do what a scoundrel should do. As for going into battle, wouldn’t you and I suffice?"

Before Sikong Zhuxing’s words were finished, Prince Longyang caught up, saying, "Sikong Zhuxing is right, scoundrels have their uses. Silencing the opposition is just the first step. Next, we must cleanse the entire You Country. Both the official and military sectors need purification, but we can’t personally handle all these tasks. So, we’ll need someone unscrupulous to do it for us."

Listening to their explanation, Si Haixian was a bit bewildered, "When did you two discuss this? Why didn’t I know anything about it?"

"The moment the Western Guardian King surrendered, I thought of it." Prince Longyang replied.

Sikong Zhuxing continued, "When he didn’t insist on you killing the Western Guardian King, I understood what he intended."

Si Haixian fell silent.

Prince Longyang and Sikong Zhuxing exchanged a knowing smile.

Sure, here is the translation:

...

Longze Domain Lord’s Mansion.

For most people in the hall, this short half-day period felt like endless years, with constant worries bursting forth in their minds.

Although the result was already laid before them, they still held on to a hopeful mindset, expecting the Southern Guardian King’s victory.

Nothing else.

Just because that was the last hope.

As for the Great Celestial General?

Nobody dared to ask for anything.

They were all taken by the Immortal Sect; how could they possibly leave alive?

If it were possible, the ancestors of Celestial Radiance Transformation wouldn’t have died there back then.

When they saw three streaks of brilliance coming into view, everyone’s heart tightened, and some even forgot to breathe.

Upon seeing the arriving individuals, the many Heaven Unrestricted cultivators, holding their last hopes, felt as if their hearts fell into icy caverns, with no light in their eyes. Some sighed, some remained silent, and others stumbled, nearly losing their balance.

Meanwhile, those who steadfastly sided with Prince Longyang and switched allegiance to Sikong Zhuxing’s faction bore a full-face smile.

After all, a man triumphs over joyous events and feels invigorated!

The most excited among them were those Heaven Unrestricted cultivators firmly standing by Prince Longyang; they had been through so much.

The previous underestimation had dimmed their future; now, at this moment, they felt overly joyful, as if receiving a heaven-sent blessing.

Thankfully, they persevered.

Thankfully, they didn’t defect to another’s banner!

As they celebrated, Prince Longyang and the two landed before the main hall, and tens of thousands inside and outside the hall scrambled forward and simultaneously knelt, bowing in submission. Everyone understood that from now on, You Country would be under Prince Longyang’s rule!

Sikong Zhuxing also knelt on one knee but called out differently from the others, "This humble servant Sikong Zhuxing greets the Sovereign!"

Si Haixian, understanding the cue, also knelt on one knee, "Si Haixian greets the Sovereign!"

With the two leading, the voices honoring Prince Longyang as Sovereign rose like tides, echoing through the skies.

Meanwhile, in the Whisper Pavilion, Wen Ping quietly waiting for this scene, revealed a satisfied smile as system notifications ensued.

[Main Quest Goal 4: Disband You Country or Rule You Country]

[Completed!]

[Quest Reward: 500,000 Fame, a chance to choose a world-class territory!]

[Received: 500,000 Fame]

[Received: World-Class Territory Selection Opportunity]

Wealth has arrived.

Sudden wealth!

500,000 Fame is still a massive amount for him now, especially since the Purple Treasure Pavilion has already been built, but with not many Vortex Divine Artisans, the rate of earning Fame hasn’t sped up much.

500,000 Fame, an S-level lottery can be drawn fifty times. Even with poor luck, one can manage to create ten to eight S-level bloodlines.

Or, conduct Mythical Forging at the Purple Treasure Pavilion, once for 10,000 Fame. Regardless of outcome, at least fifty Double Special Vortex Maps can be produced. Investing fifty Double Specials into the Sect will significantly boost everyone’s power.

After a brief joy, Wen Ping eagerly commanded the system to open the world territory selection opportunity.

"System, open the world territory selection opportunity!"

After speaking, a map appeared before Wen Ping.

But this map was no longer a Sect map but a world map, including the entire Heaven-Gazing Gorge and Heaven and Earth Lake.

The map was divided into two regions, precisely You Country and Zhetian Tower.

The system stated, "The host may choose a region as the Sect’s territory, and the system will carry out a certain degree of modification and upgrading."

"What benefits will the upgrade bring to me and the Sect?"

The system responded, "Upgrade benefits can only be queried post-upgrade."

After speaking, a notification popped up again.

[Note: After choosing a world-class territory, the host becomes the master of this world. It is best to select the Sect’s locale to gain maximum authority. Consider carefully; selection is irrevocable!]

"It seems I can only choose You Country." Zhetian Tower’s territory exceeds the distance covered by the Teleportation Array, so Wen Ping can’t possibly select it.

"I choose this left part."

[Confirm?]

"Confirm!"

[World-Class Territory Selection Successful!]

[World-Class Territory Upgrading...]

[Remaining Time: 100 hours]

[System Updating...]

[Remaining Time: 100 hours]

After making the selection, Wen Ping felt no change in his mindset, lacking any impulse to stand up and shout "I am the master of the world."

He is still himself.

The Sect Leader of Immortal Sect.

Just that it seems he has a tad more responsibility on his shoulders.

After leaving Whisper Pavilion, Wen Ping immediately returned to Tingyu Pavilion, refining Primordial Vast Power while waiting for the 100 hours to conclude.
