The Clan Master Can't possibly Be A Mortal

Chapter 435: Chapter 435: Return to the Sect, Over a Thousand Disciples, Extra Rewards

At the summit of the Enforcement Peak of the Divine Wind Sword Sect.

Mu Ruxue, with the Supreme Grade Spiritual Artifact, the Divine Wind Sword on her back, gazed at the sharp longsword, her brows slightly furrowed.

“The Sect Master has broken through to the Divine Origin Realm, next, he should abdicate his position as the Sect Master and let me assume the role as the acting Sect Master.”

She muttered to herself.

“Sword Child, this is a good thing!” The four maids behind her congratulated her in turn.

“Hmph, a good thing? I doubt it!” Mu Ruxue looked towards the Elders’ Peak where the Great Elder resided, her eyes sharp and piercing.

She had an ominous feeling.

A crisis was about to descend!

County King City.

Above the County King’s Mansion, a figure soared into the sky.

Adorned in imposing and majestic battle armor, the figure stood heroically in the high heavens, with nature’s spiritual energy rushing towards him from all directions, swirling into a vortex around him.

This scene was as if the Heavenly and Earthly Elemental Energy was submitting to him.

And this was the power of the Divine Origin Realm!

Controlling Heavenly and Earthly Elemental Energy!

A single thought could sever the connection between cultivators below the Divine Origin Realm and the nature’s spiritual energy, rendering them unable to draw upon external forces to battle their foes.

It’s for this reason that a Divine Origin Realm facing a peak Spirit Sea Realm cultivator is considered a dimension-reducing blow, capable of sweeping away the foe with ease.

Of course, if a Spirit Sea Realm cultivator possesses a Spiritual Treasure, it is not impossible to break through the Divine Origin Realm’s restriction over nature’s spiritual energy.

However, Spiritual Treasures are precious, and it’s uncommon for Spirit Sea Realm cultivators to own such items under normal circumstances.

“The Commandery Prince has broken through to the Divine Origin Realm!”

“Hahaha, our County King City finally has a local Great Power, with this, the County King City can hope to challenge the Three-Star Forces, the future is bright!”

Liu Ming, Ancestor Ning, and others laughed loudly.

With the Commandery Prince’s breakthrough, they too could bask in the glory.

Inside a certain mansion.

The Glaze King Xu Renshan cowered in his room, trembling with fear.

“This damned Commandery Prince, actually succeeded in his breakthrough. It looks like I can no longer stay in County King City, I must escape immediately.”

The Glaze King quickly rolled up his bedding and ran once again.

He had run away once before, only to be scolded miserably by Xu Huamao, and, with no other choice, he returned to County King City.

But today, he decided that he would never set foot in County King City again in his life.

Otherwise, he was nothing but a dog!

As the Sect Masters of the four Two-Star Forces within the Southern River Basin stepped into the Divine Origin Realm, the news spread wildly, and within a few short days, it reached every major city within the entire Southern River Basin.

…

Fuyun Gloomy Forest.

Ye Feng finally returned to the skies above this lush forest, able to see the four great peaks of Misty Sect shrouded in clouds and mist.

“That’s the Sect,”

Long Tianxing pointed to the distant Misty Peak, “The highest mountain is Misty Peak, and those three are Feilai Peak, Spirit Beast Peak, and Cultivation Peak. Oh, and the remaining seven floating peaks are named ‘North Union Seven Divine Peaks,’ where the True Disciples, Elders, and Stewards reside.”

“We get to live on the floating peaks?”

The several dozen Element Gathering Realm Stewards felt a surge of excitement.

“Yes, later on, find the Chief Deacon of the Outer Sect, Chu Yun’er, and she’ll make the arrangements,” Ye Feng nodded.

Chu Yun’er was the first Steward he took under his wing. Although her cultivation level wasn’t high, she was dedicated and hardworking, and rightly deserved to be promoted.

Chief Deacon of the Outer Sect.

This was the position to which Ye Feng promoted Chu Yun’er.

Her status was equivalent to that of an Outer Sect Elder.

“Sect Master, how does one get promoted to a True Disciple?” The Third Princess, Liang Wanfen, asked curiously.

“Reach the Element Gathering Realm in cultivation level, pass through the seventh level of the Cultivation Tower, and complete ten Sect missions, then one can be promoted,”

Ye Feng explained, “However, within the Sect for the time being, no disciples have advanced to the True Disciple level.”

Hearing this, everyone felt that becoming a True Disciple was a difficult feat.

However, the thought of living in the North Union Seven Divine Peaks filled them with renewed vigor.

“Oh, they’ve started expanding Whitefloat City again.”

Ye Feng looked down and noticed at the edge of the Fuyun Gloomy Forest, along the bank of Beacon Fire City river, a spacious road was under construction.

There were many disciples traveling by flying swords above it.

They were patrolling, driving away any Demonic Beasts that approached.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Some disciples were helping to clear the way, while ordinary people carried stone slabs to lay on the compacted gravel road.

“So this is what the road-building mission is about.”

As for the area near Xiao Lin Village at the base of the mountain, many buildings had been expanded, and some houses were even already inhabited.

At this time, people working on the ground were tired and sat by the roadside to rest, looking up they could see a three-story grand hall slowly flying toward them, surrounded by thousands of tiny falling stars.

Above that galaxy of stars, hundreds of people and a large number of demonic beasts stood.

Everyone was shocked.

“Sect Master, you’ve finally returned!”

Before the crowd could speculate on the origins of these people, a pink figure soared into the sky and plunged into the arms of the young man leading the group.

“It’s Sect Master Ye!”

“Ah, that’s Sect Master Ye? He really is as handsome and suave as the rumors describe.”

“Old man, can you really see that clearly from dozens of miles away?”

“I can’t see clearly, but that doesn’t prevent me from flattering.”

“You sure know how to play it cool, old man!”

The crowd stopped in their tracks to watch.

“Welcome Sect Master back to the Sect!”

Within Misty Sect, over a hundred disciples flew out on their swords, flying side by side in the sky, and bowed in unison.

On the Sect Main Plaza, hundreds of young talents looked up, their faces filled with curiosity as they gazed at Ye Feng on the Star Palace.

“The Sect Master has finally returned. Elder Gong said that we could have a meeting with the Sect Master because he has a habit of registering us personally.”

“This should be the only time we get to see the Sect Master up close, right?”

“I believe so.”

These people discussed among themselves.

Most of them were prospective disciples that Elder Gong Qingqiu had recruited from around Southern River Lake and its surrounding cities.

The rest had come of their own accord, attracted by reputation.

Having passed the test of the Fate Purple Gold Bell, they had also become prospective disciples, waiting in the Sect Main Plaza.

Now, seeing Ye Feng return, everyone couldn’t help but look up.

“Eh, there are many more prospective disciples.” Ye Feng looked towards the Sect Main Plaza and made eye contact with those young people from afar.

He noticed that some of them dressed extravagantly, as scions of noble families or from wealthy backgrounds, their eyes filled with confidence, giving off a radiant aura.

Others wore tattered clothes and dodged eye contact, their lips tightly pressed, poor yet harboring great ambitions.

“There are actually more than five hundred… In total, the number of disciples will soon break a thousand!” Ye Feng estimated and smiled slightly.

He turned to the front to see Elder Gong Qingqiu approaching from across the sky, her face beaming with a flower-like smile as she said, “Welcome Sect Master back to the Sect!”

Ye Feng nodded and looked at the Sect Main Plaza. “Are those the prospective disciples Elder Gong recruited from outside?”

“Most of them are. The rest have come from all over the Southern River Basin, drawn by our reputation. Out of tens of thousands, they were selected by the Fate Purple Gold Bell, totaling 534 in number.”

Elder Gong took out a Book of Names.

To save time, she had already inquired about those prospective disciples and prepared a draft list in advance.

“Well done,” complimented Ye Feng.

He expressed satisfaction towards the meticulous Elder Gong Qingqiu.

“Sect Master, who are these?” Elder Gong glanced at the mole, Liang Wanfen, and others, with surprise in her eyes.

Could it be that the Sect Master had gone out just to recruit people?

“Some are Registered Disciples, some are Mountain Guardian Spirit Beasts, and others are Outer Sect Affairs Managers, under the jurisdiction of the Chief Deacon of the Outer Sect, Chu Yun’er,” Ye Feng introduced.

Soon, the Star Palace was suspended above Misty Peak, a kilometer from the ground.

Ye Feng, leading the group, arrived at the Sect Main Plaza, took out the Book of Names, and greeted the 534 prospective disciples to begin registration.

Although writing was tiring, watching the number of Sect Disciples skyrocket was a bittersweet joy for Ye Feng.

As dusk fell,

Ye Feng put down the brush in his hand and looked at the bright-headed handsome young man in front of him. “Your name is Wu Xingwang? Upper Rank root bones, although you have not started cultivating yet, it’s not bad.”

“Thank you for your praise, Sect Master. I will definitely work hard on my cultivation,” the handsome bald-headed youth Wu Xingwang scratched his head and smiled.

Ye Feng closed the Book of Names and said, “By the way, congratulations. You are the nine hundred and eighty-fourth Second-generation Disciple of our Misty Sect and the thousandth disciple.”

Wu Xingwang’s eyes widened in surprise, having not expected to be the lucky one who was the thousandth disciple in the Sect.

“Sect Master, does this mean I get some special reward?” Wu Xingwang, being familiar and bold, laughed.

“No,” said Ye Feng.

“Oh.” Wu Xingwang’s face fell immediately.

Just then, a system prompt suddenly resounded in Ye Feng’s mind.

“Ding, congratulations on Misty Sect’s disciple count reaching a thousand, earning the ‘Thousand Competitors’ title, and receiving an extra reward. Please check.”

“Extra reward?” Ye Feng was startled.
