Heaven, Earth, Me

Chapter 720: Powers Gather in Astral Sky Sect.

A group of thirteen high-level Epoch Core people were walking down the streets of the Astral Sky Sect, looking around at the state of the place.

The leading man, with four jade wings on his back, spoke after a long moment of silence. "The concentration of energy, even in the outer edges, is incredible. How did she do it?"

The Mermaid Queen commented. "I thought my secret land had one of the best places to cultivate talents, but compared even to the streets of the Astral Sky Clan, the difference is like mud and purified water."

Lin Meiying, the Sect Master of the Nine Pure Melody Sect, laughed elegantly and spoke. Her voice was enchanting and melodic, like the singing of an oriole. "I thought that little girl was lying to me, but it seems to be true. Astral Sky Sect does hide more than it looks."

A silver-feathered harpy snorted. "I told you, and none of you listened to me. We wouldn't need to visit her if that wasn't the case."

A purple-haired woman with purple eyes rolled her eyes. "Tengliu, stop rubbing it in their faces."

Tengliu smirked. "Why? Are you afraid of them, Coraline?"

Coraline sighed. "Childish."contemporary romance

To which Tengliu answered with a laugh.

The rest of the people didn't speak. They hadn't expected Yasenia to be so vicious as to unleash a disaster of such a scale. Although only three weeks had passed since it happened, each of the 30 cities targeted had lost an average of 20,000 people. The spreading power of whatever Yasenia unleashed, even when the fatality rate was so high, was something none of these powers had seen before.

These people have gone to speak with the three affected powers, but all of them told them that they weren't going to rest until Astral Sky Sect disappeared from the face of the continent.

The ones present were the leaders of the Jade Thunderbirds, Ocean swallowing Mermaids, Devil Smashing Apes, Stormfeather Harpies, Glass Scale Lamias, Sun Engulfing Ore Lobsters, Ember Phoenixes, Nine Golden Body Sect, Nine Pure Melody Sect, Nine Herb Fragrance Sect, Nine Grudge Poison Sect, Holy Beast Empire, and Forest Sky Empire.

While they walked, they tried extending their spiritual senses to investigate, but to their shock and confusion, they couldn't spread their spiritual sense further than a kilometer. It didn't even reach one percent compared to what they could usually do.

They couldn't spread it further because of the pressure the formation covering the entire sect created.

While Tengliu had warned them that she wouldn't guarantee they would leave this place alive if they did something stupid, they hadn't initially believed her. How could a formation strong enough to suppress peak-tier powerhouses exist?

However, once inside the sect, they felt like birds with their wings clipped.

This had raised the evaluation of the mysterious Astral Sky Sect one extra notch. Then, discovering the absolute difference in energy quality compared to outside this place made them even more interested but cautious about them.

As long as the Astral Sky Sect didn't fall, this environment was enough to create many future powerhouses and become a power that nobody would be able to ignore.

Furthermore, the strange architecture of the cities that clearly didn't follow the rounded design of the Distancia continent added to all previously said.

The Female Sect Master of the Nine Herb Fragrance Sect looked around with interest. "Don't mention cultivation; just the treasures this ambient energy can grow is enough to give them a competitive edge in the entire continent. Look at that shop. It's just a stall selling spiritual-rank herbs, but the concentration and purity of the Spiritual Herb are comparable to a low-level Magic Rank herb found in our gardens. When their foundations are laid across the entire place, Astral Sky Sect might become one of the Nine sects."

While a few powers present wanted to deny her words, nobody spoke. The flourishing ambient around them was enough to tempt them, not to mention rogue cultivators, noble families, and other powers that weren't large-scale. If they knew about this, even mercenary teams and other powers would be drawn to become affiliated with the Astral Sky Sect.

The outer sect was the place that occupied the biggest part of the entire place, and soon, they arrived at the inner sect.

Structure-wise, the Astral Sky Sect was structured like a very large city with different walls separating the different areas. The city also wasn't concentrical but linear. Since there was only one way to enter the sect, and that was the valley between the mountains surrounding the place, the city inside the sect went from outer to inner to core to central areas.

The other places, like the training areas and other benefits like the trial of towers, were all located outside the linear city structure so that everyone could participate in them as long as they had enough Astral Sky Points.

The wall separating the outer from the inner sect had two gates, one for entry and another for exiting the area. Once they approached the gate, they looked at the two people guarding it, and they realized that they were inner sect members.

For menial professions and similar, there were plenty of missions that gave them Astral Sky Points. So, cultivators that didn't want to venture outside could take guarding, escorting, guiding, cleaning, producing, and similar missions and would receive a corresponding reward, mainly in Astral Sky Points.

Everything was set up to create an inner economy and keep everything balanced.

After crossing into the inner sect area, the various leaders couldn't help but widen their eyes. If they thought that the outer sect area already had good ambient energy, the inner sect had at least three times better atmosphere.

There weren't nearly as many people in the inner area, but the products, houses, and other places were of a higher quality.

Tengliu laughed. "If you are already surprised. Wait until we reach little Yasenia's place."

The Mermaid Queen asked, dubious. "Are you saying that they have a better place than this?"

Tengliu smirked. "Better? The energy here is pathetic compared to what the core parts of the sect have."

Coraline saw that they didn't believe them, so she supported Tengliu's claim. "There are times that I honestly don't want to leave. If I didn't have a few responsibilities back in my Kingdom, I would've stayed in my residence here."

The leader of the Golden Body Sect, a man with a bulky physique and a lively attitude, asked. "A residence?"

Coraline smiled. "Of course. Since my little Ebirah is quite loved by little Yasenia and the others, they insisted on giving me a house to live with her."

Tengliu, Wuria, and Gireila nodded. "We also have one."

The Mermaid Queen was silent for a second and asked. "How many residences are there?"

Tengliu laughed. "What, interested?"

"If anybody said otherwise, they would be lying. Even in the inner area, I feel like I can break through 15% faster than in my sect's holy land. If your words are true, I might even be able to loosen the bottleneck quicker."

Tengliu saw that the woman remained calm and elegant, not showing awkwardness, and snorted. Then, she answered. "Well, you'll have to ask her."

Their journey took a while since the leaders couldn't help themselves and explore a bit of the sect's core area.

There were even low-level Earth Rank treasures for sale, so they bought a few.

The leader of the Herb Fragrance sect was looking at a pill with wonder in her eyes. "This [Basic Energy Gathering Pill] is amazing. It has 100% purity, and the effects should be noticeable up to the mid-level Ethereal Soul realm. Moreover, it is only a low-level Earth Rank pill."

An inconspicuous middle-aged man was holding a vial with a reddish fluid with curiosity. "They even sell poisons. Not even my Nine Grudge Poison Sect is as casual with them. Well, they are quite expensive compared to their antidotes, but even then, it's quite interesting."

A middle-aged man wearing golden robes commented. "It seems I didn't make the trip for nothing."

He was handsome and heroic, with a pair of beautiful draconic golden wings, eyes, and a short, similarly golden tail. He was the actual Emperor of the Holy Beast Empire.

His aura was as strong, if not stronger, than the Patriarch of the Jade Thunderbirds.

Walking near him, a woman with royal elegance wore a green dress. She was the Forest Sky Empress. "I agree. At first, I thought that it was too much for us to come here personally. But it seems that it was worth it. I didn't expect such a perfect land for cultivation to exist."

As the leaders spoke, a woman appeared from the shadows, making them tense up.

The reason for their wariness is that they hadn't realized that she was here before she appeared.

Doriel swept them with her completely black eyes. "Hm, nobody tries to be sneaky. It seems that I won't have to kill anybody today It's such a shame. Come with me, Young Miss has been waiting for a while."

A few of the top powers frowned, feeling disrespected. However, they were now in another person's home, so provoking them for a minor offense was not worth it.

When they arrived at the central area, the energy density became even higher, making a few of them change expressions, and by the time they arrived at Yasenia's office, their faces had become a bit stiff.

The energy around here was so dense that it felt like they were walking through a thin layer of energy.

'If I train here, my chances of breaking my bottleneck would increase severalfold.'

While marveling about their surroundings, Doriel brought them back from fantasizing. "We are here, please enter. Young Miss is waiting inside."

Doriel opened the doors, and they all stepped inside Yasenia's office, where the energy was even denser as complicated arrays surrounded the walls.

The room was much larger than they thought, making them confused. After all, they could see that there was more space inside the room than outside.

Other than size, there was plenty of low-key but luxurious furniture, making the room look elegant instead of extravagant.

However, their hearts twitched when they analyzed the materials of the room's items.

Everything was low-level Heaven-ranked and above. Not even their throne rooms were this luxurious.

On the other side of the beautiful and elegant room, they saw a dragoness playing with a purple-gold dragon.

It was clear from her aura that the purple-gold dragon was a child, making them think that she was probably Yasenia's child. Even if the dragon's body was very different compared to Yasenia's dragon shape, the golden eyes both dragons shared were identical.

The gorgeous woman sitting on her chair relaxedly lifted her face, revealing her alluring facial features, and smiled. If it were not because of their high-level cultivation, they would've probably felt their hearts skip a beat.

All of them could confidently say that the dragon woman before them was in the top five beauties they'd ever seen. If they didn't come here with other plans, or if they didn't know that the woman before them already had lovers, some of these powerhouses would've felt tempted to woo the woman.

Then, the beautiful woman's luscious lips parted, releasing a mellow and slightly deep voice that caressed everyone's ears. "Please, come inside and make yourselves comfortable. There are enough chairs for everyone."

Yasenia: I'm surprised. I always thought that the energy density of our sect was low. Even a standard room back in the Rita Academy would triumph over the densest energy place in our sect.
