Chapter 206: Many Questions
Chapter 204
“It’s still the Age of the Immortal Alliance.”
“It’s only the third ten thousandth year of the Immortal Alliance.”
“In the Nine Territories, it is the 24,900th year of the Immortal Alliance,” Headmaster Fuyunzi said.
If these things were not explained clearly, Chen Jingzhai would be blindsided when he got to the Pulao Territory.
Only by understanding its history could many things be understood.
The Immortal Alliance calendar, for example, was quite unlike any ordinary calendar. The smallest unit of the Immortal Alliance calendar was one hundred years.
Years or even decades were not considered as a measurement.
“Headmaster, what is the origin of the Age of the Immortal Alliance?”
“How many ten thousand years will the Immortal Alliance have?”
…
Chen Jingzhai took a deep breath and calmed himself down before he asked.
Learning this ancient history had a great impact on him.
But this was a good thing, at least he got to understand the origin of the clan.
Many enigmas were now being made clear.
“After the Dark Age, the second cohort of resident immortals were recalled.”
“There were three resident immortals in the third cohort.”
“These three immortals set up the Nine Territories Alliance in Pulao Territory.”
“All the clans that had produced the Grade 6 True Immortal of Tribulation, had to join the Immortal Alliance.”
“And become a part of the Immortal Alliance.”
“According to my calculation, the Age of the Immortal Alliance has at least ten ten-thousand-years and no more than fifty at the very most.
“As to the specifics of the standards, you are not yet qualified to know,” Headmaster Fuyunzi spoke nonchalantly.
Next, he explained the Immortal Alliance in detail.
The Immortal Alliance was the largest principality within the Nine Territories, with the three resident immortals as the core.
The three resident immortals were also the three most powerful immortals with the right to speak.
Within the Nine Territories, the clans of any living immortals had to join the Immortal Alliance, because the immortals from the Heaven Essence Realm themselves were the prospect disciples of the celestial clans to which the resident immortals belonged.
According to the three resident immortals, these clans were considered the subordinate clans amongst the celestial clans.
The techniques cultivated in the Heaven Essence Realm had all come from the celestial clans.
In order to facilitate its management, it was necessary to establish an Immortal Alliance, at least in technicality.
No one dared to object, because the three resident immortals were powerful enough to destroy all the clans.
“The three immortals are permanently stationed outside the Heaven Essence Realm, on the Little Star.”
“That’s a palace made of extraterrestrial meteorites, as well as being a small astral body.”
“It is called Star Palace, also known as Little Star Heaven.”
“The Immortal Alliance is managed by the disciples of the three immortals, the six True Immortals of Tribulation.”
“When you join the Immortal Alliance, you will know their names,” Headmaster Fuyun said.
“Join the Immortal Alliance?”
“Does that mean we are also part of the Immortal Alliance?” Chen Jingzhai asked thoughtfully.
“That’s right, we are the hidden branch of the Luo Tian Immortal Faction.”
“In the Immortal Alliance, we have our place,” Headmaster Fuyunzi said with a smile.
“Hasn’t the Luo Tian Immortal Faction been destroyed?”
“Does it still exist? From which Master?” Chen Jingzhai asked with a lot of excitement.
“You are fast!”
“It is the ninth-generation master, who was from the Luo Sheng sword School.”
“As the heir of Luo Tian Immortal Faction, he rebuilt the clan.”
“And joined the Immortal Alliance.”
“Then the tenth, eleventh, and twelfth generation of masters were all from the Luo Tian Immortal Faction.”
“Therefore, our position in the Immortal Alliance is not bad.”
“In the middle of the first tier.”
Headmaster Fuyunzi laughed heartily as he explained.
In the Immortal Alliance, the celestial clans of the first tier were very powerful, with at least three surviving Immortals.
In all the Nine Territories, there were no more than twenty celestial clans in the first tier.
In the celestial clans of the second tier, there were at least two surviving immortals.
In the entire Nine Territories, there were no more than forty celestial clans in the second tier.
The third tier was also known as the preparatory tier. Although there were no immortals in those clans, they had immortals at one time.
There were currently seventy-two clans in this tier.
“Shish!”
“That’s a lot!”
Chen Jingzhai sucked in a breath and said in disbelief.
“For ages, many clans have been destroyed and resurrected.”
“And who knows how many inheritances out there have been transformed.”
“There are less than two hundred clans spread through the three tiers, scattered among the Nine Territories.”
“On average, there are less than twenty clans in each territory.”
“Is that a lot? Not at all!” Headmaster Fuyunzi smiled and shook his head.
The Dark Age was the time when there were the most immortals.
The immortals took sides to support the resident immortal of their choosing.
It was a very lively time.
In today’s Heaven Essence Realm, there were less than a hundred immortals; it wasn’t much at all!
Chen Jingzhai was stunned by what he was hearing, but gradually, he recovered.
Since the headmaster said so, then so it was.
He was just a little Foundation Plane cultivator, he did not need to think so much about everything else.
“Senior brother, how many clans in the Pulao Kingdom are considered hidden branches?” he asked.
“Besides us, there are also Elixir Twilight Clan, Serenity Hollow Clan, Mystic Evil Clan, Will Celestial Clan.”
“Soaring Clouds Clan only joined us in the last ten thousand years, and belongs to the second tier.”
“It was also because of the joint effort of us hidden branches that the other clans did not discover this place,” said Headmaster Fuyunzi.
“I see.”
“Then what is the story about the Eastern Ocean Triad?”
Chen Jingzhai asked since the Eastern Ocean Triad was not a hidden branch, so was it still necessary for it to exist?
“Their founder had a relationship with our ancestors in the olden days.”
“Originally, the three founding masters were immortals assigned to guard the Tempest Ocean.”
“But after they created the clans, the three of them disappeared.”
“The Eastern Ocean Triad of today has long forgotten their duty of guarding the Tempest Ocean,” said Headmaster Fuyunzi, shaking his head.
If it weren’t for these reasons, there was really no need for the Eastern Ocean Triad to exist.
After all, the Eastern Ocean was rich in resources. Once the resources on land had been divided up, the Eastern Ocean would not be spared.
Because of this reason, everyone had a mutual understanding to turn a blind eye regarding the Eastern Ocean.
But this time when there were some rogue cultivators who tried to attack Chen Jingzhai, it was regarded as a trespass.
“So that’s what happened,” Chen Jingzhai murmured to himself.
The existence of the Eastern Ocean Triad, surprisingly, was rooted in the Tempest Ocean.
It was enough to suggest that there were still unknown secrets hidden in the Tempest Ocean.
“I gave the gift from Mingyuan Dao Sect and Mystic Sound Pavilion to Gu Hongzi.”
“He had to be compensated for what he did. After all, he was doing it for the clan.”
“You shouldn’t harbor any resentment,” Headmaster Fuyunzi said.
“I dare not!” Chen Jingzhai responded immediately. “This is the way it should be. It was I who provoked enemies from the outside. The clan has already done its best to help, so I dare not ask for more.”
“Very good,” Headmaster Fuyunzi laughed, ” Even Soaring Clouds Clan had a True Venerable Spirit who came to discuss the path. At the same time, the misunderstanding between you and celestial maiden Miao Yun has been clarified, so don’t worry about it right now.”
“I am not worried about it. It’s all unwarranted, and I am really confused about how this all come about,” Chen Jingzhai smiled with resignation. He then asked, “What about Hongdu Immortal Abode? What about the Small Heavens Cloud Forbidden Restriction?”
“The Soaring Clouds Clan has also stated that you are allowed to use it but not allowed to teach it to the outside. In addition, the Immortal Abode was missing a key, and the secret method of the True Venerable Spirit Plane of the Soaring Clouds Clan has not been found.” Master Fuyun looked at him and continued, “If you can hand them over, you will receive an inheritance in return.”
“But I did not see any keys,” Chen Jingzhai answered resolutely.
The key to the immortal abode had long been swallowed up by the divine stone, so he could not hand it over even if he wanted to. Not to mention that the inheritance of the Hongdu Immortal was not something the likes of him could covet. If he did, he would inevitably have another karmic tie with the Soaring Clouds Clan.
“As long as you have thought everything through yourself,” Headmaster Fuyun said, “Do you still have any other doubts?”
“Yes!” Chen Jingzhai said with a wry smile, “There are so many questions, it seems endless.”
“Then keep this knowledge safe,” Headmaster Fuyunzi said with a smile. “Once you cross over the Woods Ocean Ancient Path, you will know everything. You must take good care of the clan token–it is the identity token of the Luo Tian Immortal Faction.”
“Yes!” Chen Jingzhai responded.
“Before you leave the clan, you may want to try out the swords of the sword branch,” Headmaster Fuyunzi looked at him with some hidden meaning, “Since you want to create a method of your own, it should be all-encompassing; don’t leave out the swordsmanship.”
“I understand!” Chen Jingzhai responded calmly.
“Is there anything else?” Headmaster Fuyunzi asked.
“There’s one more thing,” Chen Jingzhai moved his lips slightly and sent a voice transmission to the Headmaster of Fuyunzi. “The inheritance of the True Venerable Spirit of the Eastern Ocean is the Star Divine sky scripture that governs the Star Divine Clan. The reason for this…”
“Star Divine Clan!” Headmaster Fuyunzi said with a smile in his eyes. “You don’t have to worry, this is your destiny. When you enter the Luo Tian Immortal Faction, everything will be clear to you.”
“Yes!” Chen Jingzhai was startled for a moment, then took the opportunity to bid his goodbye and left.
