System's Super Sect Chapter 1527 - 1287: World-Class Realm Construction Completed (Part 2)

"Only twenty thousand prestige points left." Wen Ping glanced at his prestige balance, determined to first build the Celestial Control Array.

Although it would reduce the effectiveness by seventy percent when defending against a Primordial Vast Realm powerhouse, it was still better than just opening the gates to let them wander freely.

"If it’s an ordinary Primordial Vast Realm, how long can the Celestial Control Array resist?"

The system responded, "If a Primordial Vast Realm powerhouse continuously attacks the Celestial Control Array, it can hold out for a maximum of one month."

"It’s unlikely that any Primordial Vast Realm powerhouse would be so idle as to attack the Celestial Control Array nonstop for a month." Knowing this result, Wen Ping felt a lot more at ease.

Next, Wen Ping surveyed the other world-class structures. Apart from the Celestial Control Array, the cheapest was the Colorless Mountain.

[Colorless Mountain]

[Level: World-class cultivation building]

[Construction price: One hundred twenty thousand prestige]

[Effect: Colorless Mountain can open once every year, every three years, or every ten years. The longer the interval, the more generous the rewards for climbers.]

[On Colorless Mountain, wonders abound; it can even change innate cultivation talents and grant eternal life.]

"Anyone can climb this Colorless Mountain."

"Colorless Mountain has no boundaries; anyone can climb it. The stronger one’s perseverance, luck, or strength, the higher they will climb."

"Seems like once I have some more resources, I can build the Colorless Mountain, improving everyone’s strength overall." In the short term, it may seem like nothing more than creating a handful of powerhouses, but ten years, a hundred years down the line, its significance will be extraordinary.

It’s not an exaggeration to say that it could elevate the quality of the Human Race in Heaven-Gazing Gorge by a tier, possibly ushering in an era where Celestial Unrestricted walks everywhere.

Putting away his excited thoughts, Wen Ping immediately opened a new permission derived after the system upgrade.

[Limit Permissions: When necessary, the host can freely demarcate areas within the world territory, limiting everything within that range. This includes—Vein Qi concentration levels, Human Race’s luck within the area, and the activity range of the Human Race within the area.]

As for this permission, Wen Ping could only say it’s quite impressive.

He’s no saint.

How could he possibly treat everyone within the world territory with the same benevolence?

Those who are displeased with him.

Those who stand opposite the Immortal Sect.

Naturally, they don’t deserve the opportunities brought about by the success of building world-class territories.

For instance, the Six-star Influences of Central Divine Domain.

After the Royal Family of You Country and the Immortal Sect completely severed their ties, they chose to stand at the forefront with the Royal Family of You Country. Although they couldn’t inflict substantial harm on the Immortal Sect, they actively persecuted many members of Screen Empire Pavilion.

From his personal perspective, this debt shouldn’t be settled like this; from the perspective of the Immortal Sect Leader, these people don’t deserve the same treatment as others.

"System, open the world territory map. I want to delineate a restriction area." As soon as the words were out, a map of Geng Country appeared before him.

Wen Ping’s gaze fell directly within the range of Central Divine Domain and then took out a Sound Transmission Stone to ask Chen Xie for a list of all the forces that cleared out Complete Know Pavilion members during the royal ban, also instructing Chen Xie to prepare a list of adversaries of the Immortal Sect.

The former will be used now; as for the latter, once the Celestial Control Array is built, Wen Ping plans to erase all traces of their world mark.

Since they prefer not wanting the opportunities he gives, they can stay in the territory of Screen Empire Pavilion; that poor place is more suitable for them.

"Sect Leader, the list has long been prepared, just waiting to settle the score with them in the future." Thus, under Wen Ping’s instructions, Chen Xie started reading the names of those six-star forces one by one,

Central Divine Domain has a total of thirty-four, and Extreme Domain, Southern Cold Domain, Chaotic Wind Divine Domain, and Beize Domain altogether have nine.

Among them, the six-star forces of Extreme Domain, Southern Cold Domain, Chaotic Wind Divine Domain, and Beize Domain were all established by the Royal Family of You Country, so when other six-star forces pretended to be oblivious during the ban, they were exceptionally diligent in clearing out Complete Know Pavilion.

After including the scopes of these six-star forces within the restriction area, Wen Ping severed contact with Chen Xie’s Sound Transmission Stone.

Chen Xie felt somewhat puzzled but immediately focused on the situation of these forces, as the Sect Leader wouldn’t ask for the list for no reason.

...

Central Divine Domain.

Divine Artisan Mountain.

Thousand Crafts Sect.

During these days of self-crippleation by No Thought Returning Heart, the entire sect lived under a cloud. Coupled with the past ten days, under the pressure of the Immortal Sect, many Vortex Divine Artisans and members of the Thousand Crafts Sect had already left the Sect.

But for most people, after living in the Thousand Crafts Sect for ten, dozens, or even hundreds of years, the Thousand Crafts Sect became their home, their root.

So with Wen Ping granting the Thousand Crafts Sect only seven days, still nearly seventy percent chose to remain with the Thousand Crafts Sect.

At the same time, by a clear small pool deep within Divine Artisan Mountain, the pale-faced Thousand Crafts Sect Leader No Thought Returning Heart sat alongside.

However, now, No Thought Returning Heart seemed not to be suffering from self-crippleation or the pain of having thirty percent of Thousand Crafts Sect members leave.

Instead, he wore a smile, although due to the self-crippleation, his complexion was as pale as snow, and his breath was noticeably lethargic compared to before.

Beside him, many Elders of the Thousand Crafts Sect were also full of smiles, all the gloom of these days vanished.

"The concentration of vein Qi has multiplied several times over. Cultivation in the future will be twice as effective with half the effort, same goes for our cultivation of Vortex Skill; truly, heavens bless our Thousand Crafts Sect."

"Indeed, if we endure it for three to five years, we can surely elevate Thousand Crafts Sect to a new peak. By then, if the Immortal Sect is unwilling to coexist peacefully, we can just leave the territory of You Country."

The Elders of Thousand Crafts Sect spoke one after another, faces brimming with happiness.

But then, heaven and earth suddenly changed colors; the sunny skies rapidly shifted to overcast, filling hearts with unease.

Following that, the concentration of vein Qi within heaven and earth began to plummet drastically. In mere ten breaths, it returned to the previous state.

Everyone’s faces froze, and before they could react or voice their astonishment, the concentration of vein Qi in heaven and earth again began to drop dramatically, eventually stopping at a barren and un-cultivatable level.

With perception, the vein Qi contained in heaven and earth seemed to be less than a tenth of a few days ago, as though heaven and earth’s Qi had exhausted.

"What’s going on!"

"Heaven and earth have changed; the vein Qi contained in heaven and earth is only a tenth of before, even less than the Abandoned Land outside Heaven-Gazing Gorge!"

"What to do? With the vein Qi of heaven and earth so barren, our power is greatly diminished, and our cultivation speed is likely to be less than a tenth of before."

Amidst the panic of multiple Thousand Crafts Sect leaders, Thousand Crafts Sect Leader No Thought Returning Heart’s face grew solemn and peculiar, "Such sudden change in heaven and earth must be a harbinger of disaster, Heaven-Gazing Gorge likely will face significant turmoil, a disaster where no one can remain safe."

This kind of change, not even during the outside world invaders’ intrusion into Heaven-Gazing Gorge, had appeared – evidently, what’s about to happen is more terrifying than those past events.

No Thought Returning Heart did not care about his convalescence at this moment and immediately rose to check the outside world to see whether it was more severe. Upon discovering the outside world was similar, No Thought Returning Heart and the entire Thousand Crafts Sect were even more panicked.

Even more anxious than when threatened by the Immortal Sect. After all, the former was merely a threat from humans, whereas the latter was heaven and earth transformed.

However, an hour later, a piece of news arrived that dumbfounded everyone—they couldn’t leave the territory of the Thousand Crafts Sect.

An invisible wall appeared at the edges of the Thousand Crafts Sect territory, blocking everyone’s path, including the Curved Realm Passage.

Upon learning this news, No Thought Returning Heart and several Elders of Thousand Crafts Sect hurried to the edge of the Thousand Crafts Sect territory.

They tried to walk outside but were blocked. What shocked them even more was the terrifying vein Qi concentration outside the Thousand Crafts Sect territory, similar to when heaven and earth Qi had just dramatically increased.

A bad thought arose in everyone’s mind, and after they had circled around other areas of the Thousand Crafts Sect territory.

No Thought Returning Heart, along with numerous Elders and disciples of Thousand Crafts Sect, were all dumbfounded—the so-called heavenly disaster was not of Heaven-Gazing Gorge, but only of the Thousand Crafts Sect. Only within the realm of Thousand Crafts Sect had vein Qi concentration become exceedingly sparse.

"This..." No Thought Returning Heart’s face grew even paler compared to when he self-crippled his arms.

Of course, the others in Thousand Crafts Sect were no exception.

The same situation occurred amongst the other forty-two six-star forces, and their situations gradually became known by other forces.

As knowledge bearers found this news incredible, Chen Xie, together with numerous top members of Complete Know Pavilion, arrived at the border of a six-star territory.

"Sect Leader, it’s already been counted that this drastic change happened not only in the Harmony Sect but also among the other forty-two six-star forces associated with them, including..." As those beside him read each of these forces names, Chen Xie focused.

Other top members of Complete Know Pavilion’s gazes also solidified because they’d seen this list long ago, even personally worked on it during the count.
