Chapter 393
According to Bai Ling’s explanation, the Jiuli secret realm connected to seven prefectures . To put it more clearly, there were seven prefectures with entrances to the Jiuli secret realm .
As for the Xuantian Supermonastery, it was located in just one of those seven prefectures . Each prefecture represented a vast area a million miles wide, and there were countless sects within each prefecture .
Other than a few large sects that monopolized several entrances, there were many smaller entrances that were in the hands of smaller sects .
So each time the secret realm opened, all the elites of the seven prefectures would gather . Within them, it was unknown just how many top experts were present .
As for Bai Ling, she said her Huayun Sect couldn’t count as the strongest, but they could count as the wealthiest .
The way the Huayun Sect raised its disciples was extremely special . In order to become a core disciple, you had to first possess the ability to create a great deal of wealth .
Back when Bai Ling had been sent to the Phoenix Cry capital to handle the Huayun Pavilion, it was just an experience the sect had set up for her . It was also a test to see if she had the smarts to rake in money .
Bai Ling, and her junior apprentice-sister Yao Niqian, managed to meet their goal target in an extremely short amount of time . They returned to the sect to receive the sect’s nurturing .
This nurturing was extremely bizarre . It was given in accordance to how well the disciple did during their trial . The sect gave them resources in accordance to how quickly they could make money .
Long Chen was dumbfounded . Even this was a sect? This was clearly a business company! It was a bunch of old businessmen raising younger businessmen . What were they cultivating for?
Bai Ling told Long Chen that their belief was in the god of wealth . When he heard that, Long Chen almost spluttered . The god of wealth? Hadn’t they just become bedeviled by money?
However, Bai Ling’s next sentence made Long Chen almost laugh . She said that no matter how high a person’s talent was, it was still no good without money to support it .
As for the Huayun Sect, it gave people a level playing field . On that level playing field, as long as you put in the work, then it didn’t matter your background, it didn’t matter your current resources, it didn’t matter your talent . You would still have a chance to step onto the path of cultivation .
It wasn’t like other sects that had stringent requirements for their disciples . The Huayun Sect wouldn’t refuse any cultivator . Even if you were a trash of the cultivation world, you could still join .
Through your own efforts, you could obtain cultivation resources . However, those with higher talent would get a slightly higher starting point . But those without talent could still be an odd jobs worker to earn their cultivation resources, allowing even them to cultivate .
The Huayun Sect’s disciples had practically spread throughout every corner of the world . This had caused them to be laughed at and mocked by many sects .
However, even the top sects had no choice but to admit the Huayun Sect truly was strong . The number of their disciples had reached an astronomical number that was simply impossible to calculate .
With that many members, it was naturally easy for some amazing geniuses to appear in their ranks . The sect would treat those especially talented disciples even better .
As for those disciples who came from ordinary backgrounds and had climbed their way up step by step, the Huayun Sect would create a level playing field for them, allowing them to also grow .
However, the Huayun Sect was different from other sects in that it didn’t allow its disciples to cheat . It didn’t allow them to abuse their position for personal gain . If they wanted a level playing field, if they wanted good resources, then they had to work for them .
Bai Ling was filled with pride and worship as she spoke of the Huayun Sect’s fairness . She had once just been a wandering street orphan . In her childhood, she had been taken in by a disciple from the Huayun Sect . From that point on, she had begun to use her own abilities to gain cultivation resources and cultivate .
If it hadn’t been for the Huayun Sect, she would have stayed a starving street orphan, and there would have been no way for that fate to change to anything good . There were far too many people with fates that had been similar to hers . She, and the other similar people that had been accepted into the Huayun Sect, were filled with gratefulness to that god of wealth .
“Sorry, I shouldn’t have put on such an expression,” apologized Long Chen . He had a good opinion of the Huayun Pavilion now .
This world was one where the weak were prey to the strong, a world filled with blood . Religion had already become a luxury . Long Chen felt slightly ashamed of his previous rudeness .
“Haha, don’t worry about it . We Huayun disciples are often ridiculed so we’re already used to it . However, I know you weren’t actually ridiculing me and just felt it was funny . Furthermore, you were able to lower your face to me, a woman, to apologize . That’s enough for me to tell what kind of magnanimous person you are,” laughed Bai Ling .
“My Huayun Sect has two great advantages . One is our financial ability . Our sect is definitely the wealthiest of all sects .
“Each day, countless disciples join us . Each disciple increases the sect’s wealth . Compared to us, those sects that rely on veins of ore or spirit fields are just wasting their resources .
“Our other advantage is that our auction houses are spread throughout the entire world, allowing us to gain much more detailed information than anyone else .
“So you don’t need to be curious why I know these things . However, that information can only be used as a reference . Each sect has its own secrets . No one knows just how many monsters are hidden within these seven prefectures .
“You, Long Chen, are a perfect example . Your sudden rise to fame has caused quite a few jaws to drop . I trust that Han Tianyu, Yin Luo, and the other peak experts are all secretly preparing to handle you,” said Bai Ling .
Hearing Bai Ling’s explanation, Long Chen felt as if he had just been a frog at the bottom of a well . Seven prefectures . If it really was as Bai Ling had said, then he really didn’t know just how many peak experts would pop up .
