In front of the main hall of the Sky-sea Pavilion, the mist was dense and magnificent.
The sect disciples who came and went were respectful and orderly. They even laughed when they spoke, afraid that they would disrespect the dignity of the sect.
Zhou Qing was wearing a sackcloth robe as he paced back and forth in front of the main gate, waiting.
The people passing by all looked at him in surprise.
"Who is this person? I haven't seen him before."
"He's probably here to participate in the assessment."
"Why didn't you seize the time to cultivate?”
"Rotten wood can't be carved."
Zhou Qing didn't care about the gazes of the others.
1.1 times cultivation speed was useless even if he cultivated.
The entire morning passed, but Zhou Qing still did not meet any important figures.
However, after a morning of observation, Zhou Qing gradually figured it out.
The disciples who had yet to enter the sect wore the same linen clothes.
The servant disciple wore a green robe.
The outer sect disciple wore a light yellow robe.
The inner disciples wore gray robes.
It was already noon, but there were still no big shots passing by.
Zhou Qing planned to clock in when there were inner sect disciples coming in and out.
After all, although the cultivation of inner sect disciples was not as high as some elders, they were still the best choice.
However, in the next moment, a dragon's roar and a phoenix's cry sounded from the sect's gate.
Dragon roars and phoenix cries shook the earth, and a mysterious and vast aura filled the air.
A pale white ripple spread down from the sky, and a terrifying pressure swept across the world.
Then, Zhou Qing saw a group of terrifying, dignified, and sacred people descend from the sky.
This group of people had indifferent expressions, and their brows were filled with arrogance. There was an indescribable respect and nobility in their movements.
There were five people in this group, and the leader was a middle-aged man.
He was wearing a light purple robe, and the dark patterns on his clothes were constantly surging. He was not angry, but he was imposing.
The other four stood on either side of him, not saying a word.
A moment later, ten people flew out of the sect.
The person in the middle was an old man in a green robe.
The other nine were all dressed in white robes. Elder Li Mingxuan was among them.
When Zhou Qing saw them, he realized that they were probably the leader of the Sky-sea Pavilion.
The other nine were elders of the Sky-sea Pavilion.
"Who are the other five?" Zhou Qing sensed their overwhelming aura and guessed.
They were probably not from the Sky-sea Pavilion.
After all, the difference in aura between the two sides was too great.
Especially the dignified man in the light purple robe, who could probably fight the Sect Leader and Elder of the Sky-sea Pavilion alone.
However, Zhou Qing couldn't care less about these things. He quickly started to clock in. This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Ding! You have successfully logged in. You have received 980 talent points!
980 talent points?
Zhou Qing was shocked. How terrifying were these people?
He had actually obtained so many talent points at once. This was too shocking.
Zhou Qing did not have time to think. He immediately added all 980 talent points to his cultivation speed.
Then, he immediately opened the talent panel.
Character: Zhou Qing
[Constitution: Mortal Body]
[Cultivation speed: 99.1 times (originally 1.1, plus 98)]
[Remaining Talent Points: 0]
His cultivation speed had reached 99 times!
What kind of speed was this? Zhou Qing could not wait to give it a try.
In an instant, Zhou Qing felt a mysterious aura wandering in his body.
Wherever the aura passed, it was like a torrential river that flowed endlessly, constantly washing away the meridians in his body.
The originally dry and blocked meridians became wider and wider after being nourished and washed by this current.
The human body had twelve main meridians and eight extraordinary meridians.
There were also the twelve meridians, twelve tendons, and twelve skin parts that were attached to the twelve meridians.
These meridians expanded at a speed visible to the naked eye. At the same time, the dark color also had a faint luster.
The shriveled meridians immediately became elastic, and the Qi-gathering Technique began to circulate naturally.
Previously, Zhou Qing's meridians were dry and blocked, and he needed to squeeze in spiritual energy.
But now, the spiritual energy rushed into the empty road without any obstruction. It was very smooth.
Zhou Qing couldn't care less and immediately sat down cross-legged.
However, his spiritual perception was still there, and he could still hear the sound.
........
In front of the sect's main hall.
"So it's the Vice Sect Master and Elders of the High Solitary Sect who have graced us with your presence.”The green-robed, white-haired, ruddy Sky-sea Pavilion Master smiled faintly.
"Xuan Weiyang, you should know the purpose of our Supreme Solitary Sect's visit today.”The vice sect master's eyes were filled with a divine light, his aura was calm and distant.
Hearing the other party call the Sky-sea Pavilion's Sect Leader Xuan Weiyang by his name, the elders were furious.
Even the lowest rank 9 sect should address him as Pavilion Master Xuan.
He actually called Xuan Weiyang? This was blatant contempt.
Xuan Weiyang's expression did not change. She used a hand gesture to suppress the elders, her face as dark as water.
"Jiang Changhe, if you have something to say, just say it.”Xuan Weiyang said bluntly.
"Hmm? How dare you call Vice Sect Leader Jiang by his name?”One of the five elders from the Supreme Solitary Sect raised his eyebrows and said in a cold voice.
Then, a terrifying pressure swept across the square, and a domineering aura was released without reservation.
Some of the disciples who were closer to him immediately felt the world spin and fear arose in their hearts!
This person didn't care about the Sky-sea Pavilion at all!
However, the ninth-grade sect was very strict. Even the pavilion master of the Sky-sea Pavilion had no status.
Both of them relied on their strength to win respect.
"Don't be rude." Jiang Changhe's expression was calm, but his eyes were shining. He said,""This time, my Supreme Solitary Sect has come to collect year coins.”
"Didn't the Sky-sea Pavilion pay the annual coins this year?”Xuan Weiyang frowned.
Year coins were actually the cultivation resources that weak sects sent to powerful sects every year.
For example, spirit stones, pills, magic tools, and other materials.
A sect was a rank 9 sect, and a rank 1 sect could collect year coins from a rank 6 sect.
Rank two sects would collect year coins from rank seven sects.
A third rank sect would collect year coins from an eighth rank sect.
Rank four sects would charge year coins from rank nine sects.
Among them, fifth rank sects did not need to pay year coins, but they did not have the right to collect year coins.
Weak sects had a hard time surviving and had a shallow foundation. Without the support of grotto-heavens and blessed lands, they still had to pay year coins to high-ranked sects.
Resources were the most important thing in cultivation.
Without the support of resources, it was easy to imagine how difficult it would be for a sect that lacked resources to rise.
In addition, the year coin system was prevalent in the ninth rank sects.
This created a situation where the strong were stronger and the weak were weaker.
In the entire Yan Country, the ninth-rank sects had not had any major fluctuations for more than 2,000 years.
The Sky-sea Pavilion was a sect at the bottom of Rank-9.
The Supreme Solitary Sect was a fourth-rank sect, which was responsible for collecting the coins from the Sky-sea Pavilion.
The Sky-sea Pavilion had already paid the annual coins last year. Why was the Supreme Solitary Sect collecting them now?
Jiang Changhe's expression remained unchanged as he said indifferently,""The quality of the Spiritual Stones you handed in last year was too low, and there were too many of them. It doesn't match the surface value, so you still need to pay 200,000 Lower Spiritual Stones.”
"200,000 low-grade Spiritual Stones?"
"Every time we hand in a sufficient amount, we never pass off inferior goods as good ones!”
"The Supreme Solitary Sect has gone too far! Do you think the Sky-sea Pavilion is easy to bully?”
The elders of the Sky-sea Pavilion were furious.
Xuan Weiyang's expression was gloomy as she raised her hand to stop everyone from speaking.
"Alright, I'll give it to you!" Xuan Weiyang didn't say anything else as he transferred the resources to the people of the Supreme Solitary Sect.
After taking the resources, Jiang Changhe chuckled and cupped his hands slightly."Farewell."
Soon after, the five of them soared into the sky and fled with divine light.
"Pavilion Master, why did you give it to him?"
"That's right! At most, we'll fight it out with him! Fight to the death!"
"I'm so angry! Supreme Solitary Sect!"
"That's right. We've never lacked the year coins we've contributed in the past. What right do you have to say that our Supreme Solitary Sect's year coins last year were inferior?”
The elders 'chests heaved up and down violently. Their expressions were incomparably gloomy as they spoke in a cold voice.
"If you want to add a crime, you have no excuse." Xuan Weiyang clenched her fists and let out a long sigh."I know you are not afraid of death, but if you don't hand over 200,000 Lower Spiritual Stones this time, the Sky-sea Pavilion will be destroyed.”
The difference in strength between a fourth rank sect and a ninth rank sect was like heaven and earth. It was too easy to exterminate a sect.
Jiang Changhe alone could destroy the entire Sky-sea Pavilion, not to mention the Sect Master and Elders of the High Solitary Sect, as well as the old Grand Elders.
The difference in strength was too great.
"Let's go back. I hope one of the disciples will be a peerless genius and revitalize the Sky-sea Pavilion.”
Xuan Weiyang and the others were about to return when they noticed Zhou Qing sitting in a corner of the square.
"Eh?" "The absorption speed of this spiritual energy…" Xuan Weiyang said in surprise.
