Chapter 702: Chapter 702: Flattery
The enhancement of the World Realm includes two aspects: expanding the world and perfecting the world.
The larger the world, the more and stronger the contained Spiritual Power!
Similarly, the Power of the World also becomes stronger.
And, the Emperor Extreme Pill possesses this miraculous energy to expand and perfect the world.
In the following day or so, Ling Chen was completely immersed in cultivation.
When the energy of the Emperor Extreme Pill was thoroughly refined, the world within Ling Chen’s body expanded to a new level.
"Boom!"
The world within Ling Chen quickly stabilized.
"Third level of World Realm!"
A sharp light flashed in Ling Chen’s eyes.
At the third level of the World Realm, due to the Perfect World, his cultivation was comparable to those who possess a normal world at the sixth level of World Realm!
"Wait until the cultivation stabilizes a bit more, then consume the Harmonization Fruit!"
Ling Chen decided in his heart.
Opening the door, Ling Chen saw Shen Xing guarding at the entrance.
"Did you break through?"
Shen Xing asked.
"Yes."
Ling Chen nodded.
"Congratulations."
Shen Xing said and then returned to his own room.
Night fell.
Liu Yu knocked on the door and said, "Young Master Ling, Mr. Chen from Sky Sun Sect invites you to a banquet at Feixian Tower."
"Okay!"
Ling Chen responded.
Then he gathered everyone and headed towards Feixian Tower.
Along the way, many passersby pointed and whispered about them.
Some even mentioned the Hidden Sect.
"What kind of Hidden Sect are we considered?"
Ling Chen said with a smile.
After a short while, they arrived at Feixian Tower.
"Young Master Ling!"
Chen Gong came forward to greet him, bowing to Ling Chen.
Behind him, there were many talented youths!
"Mr. Chen, who are these people?"
Ling Chen asked puzzled.
Chen Gong immediately explained, "These are the genius disciples from our eight major sects, especially here today to meet you!"
"Nice to meet Young Master Ling!"
Everyone said in unison.
Ling Chen quickly clasped his hands and said, "Nice to meet all of you!"
He had no conflicts with the sects of the Central Region.
Since Chen Gong introduced them, he naturally would not refuse.
However, he was puzzled why these disciples from the big sects wanted to meet him.
Could it be because of his prominence at the auction yesterday.
After much thought, that was the only reason.
"This is Young Master Qin Wentian from Qingyun Sword Sect!"
"This is Mr. Qi Zhen from Lingyan Pavilion!"
"This is Mr. Lai Yunlong from Seeking Immortal Sect!"
"This is Miss Nangong Ya from Purple Cloud Valley!"
...
Chen Gong introduced them one by one.
Among the ten major sects of the Central Region, eight sects’ genius disciples were present.
However, what puzzled Ling Chen was that the cultivation levels of these talented disciples were not particularly outstanding.
Chen Gong, in fact, had the lowest cultivation, only in the late stage of the first level of World Realm!
Then, everyone proceeded to the top floor of Feixian Tower.
Feixian Tower is very tall.
Standing on the top floor, one could almost overlook a large part of Yan City.
Ordinary cultivators simply do not qualify to enter this place.
Renting the top floor for one night costs at least thousands of top-grade Spirit Crystals.
Thousands of Spirit Crystals are nothing in the eyes of the genius disciples from the ten major sects.
Especially to form connections with people from a Hidden Sect.
Ever since the Heavenly Destiny Sect appeared, the people of the Central Region have been extremely wary of Hidden Sects.
Dare not easily offend them!
Everyone took their seats.
There were fourteen seats in total.
Ling Chen’s side occupied six seats.
Even Xiao Qing occupied a seat.
Everyone thought it was quite normal.
Especially when they saw Xiao Qing occasionally take out a Spirit Fruit and nibble a few bites.
People from the Hidden Sect should receive such treatment!
Soon, fine wine was served first, followed by a stream of delicious dishes brought by beautiful maids.
"Come, let’s all raise a toast, to Young Master Ling, Mr. Shen, and Young Master Liu!"
Qingyun Sword Sect’s Qin Wutian said with a smile.
Qi Zhen, Nangong Ya, and others all raised their glasses.
Then, everyone began to taste the fine wine and food.
"Young Master Ling, may I ask where are you from?"
Seeking Immortal Sect’s Lai Yunlong asked.
Upon this, Qin Wutian and others immediately looked over.
They only knew that Ling Chen came from the Star Pavillion.
But what kind of sect or power the Star Pavillion was, they had never heard of it.
It was not appropriate to ask directly, and it would show their ignorance.
Therefore, they resorted to this roundabout way.
Through Ling Chen’s origin, eventually sending someone to investigate the Star Pavillion.
"We all come from the Eastern Domain."
Ling Chen said with a smile.
Although Shen Xing was not from the Eastern Domain, Ling Chen wouldn’t go into details when meeting these people for the first time.
"Eastern Domain?"
Everyone looked puzzled upon hearing this.
Among Qing Province’s five regions, the Northern Domain was the strongest, followed by the Middle, West, and South Domains, with the Eastern Domain being the weakest.
It really surprised them that the Hidden Sect came from the Eastern Domain.
However, they soon realized.
Could the Hidden Sect be judged by normal standards?
Even the place of Heavenly Destiny Sect is in an area with scarcer Nature’s Spiritual Energy in the Middle Domain.
"So Young Master Ling is from the Eastern Domain! I remember that the master of the Eastern Domain used to be the Burning Flame Sect, right?"
Qin Wutian said with a smile.
"That was in the past."
Ling Chen smiled: "A few months ago, after the struggle for the Domain Lord ended, the Burning Flame Sect was expelled from the Eastern Domain."
"Oh?"
Qin Wutian curiously asked: "Then may I know which sect controls the Eastern Domain now?"
"Star Pavillion!"
Ling Chen said.
His eyes flashing with an odd expression.
These people coming to bond with him, could it be that they still didn’t know which power he was from?
Upon this, everyone’s expression slightly changed.
The Heavenly Destiny Sect, after its emergence, did not participate in the Domain Lord’s struggle.
Yet right after the Star Pavillion emerged, it directly participated in the struggle for Domain Lord; what chance did other sects have?
"Your sect indeed has a unique way of conducting itself!"
Qin Wutian said with a bitter smile.
"What’s so strange about that?"
Ling Chen said: "Should we not make a move and just wait for others to attack us?"
"What? Are there people who dare to bully your sect?"
Qin Wutian and others were stunned.
Could it be that there was another Hidden Sect in the Eastern Domain that even dared to bully them?
"There were before, but not anymore."
Ling Chen smiled.
After nearly eradicating all the near-emperor-level experts of the Burning Flame Sect, the entire Eastern Domain is now united under the Star Pavillion!
Hearing this, Qin Wutian nodded and said with a smile, "Indeed. Any sect that offends your sect is simply seeking its own destruction!"
"You can’t say that; the Burning Flame Sect still had some strength!"
Ling Chen smiled.
If it weren’t for the Pavilion Master advancing to the sixth level of the World Realm, and him using the Power of Perfect World to transform the realm for the Pavilion Master.
It’d still be tough to say who would have prevailed!
At that time, Ling Chen’s strength was not as formidable as it is now.
Dealing with someone at the sixth level of the World Realm, there was hardly any chance of victory.
"Young Master Ling, you’re being modest. Your sect, quiet until brilliant—once it acts, isn’t it sweeping across the world?"
Qin Wentian flattered.
"Yes! Once your sect has emerged, who in the world can stand against it?"
"It’s said that the State Governor himself once visited the Heavenly Destiny Sect in person. It won’t be long before the State Governor arrives in the Eastern Domain!"
"Absolutely, a Hidden Sect has a terrifying power, even the State Governor wouldn’t dare to underestimate it!"
Qi Zhen, Lai Yunlong, Su Mubai and others echoed in agreement.
