Chapter 1689 - 1671: What Are Benefits!
This gate rule!
With this gate rule, no more thoughts should be entertained in the future!
Lin Feng is determined to completely consolidate numerous forces, leaving no hope whatsoever!
...
At this moment, the Sect Masters or Family Heads of the various forces all had darkened expressions. They were thinking more intricately and understood what these gate rules represented. Once they joined the Holy Wind Sect, under the influence of these rules, wanting to privately reconnect and form small groups would be utterly impossible. In essence, these regulations are specifically designed to completely disperse their existing forces.
At this moment, they were all contemplating how exactly to handle the consolidation by the Holy Wind Sect. This issue was of enormous significance, as joining the Holy Wind Sect meant these sects would no longer have any possibility of separation. The rules laid it out clearly and leaving would be akin to courting death. Yet, the thought of simply losing their original sects stirred profound reluctance in them.
Just as everyone was preoccupied with such thoughts, Xia Yuntian cleared his throat and began announcing the reward measures.
"After discussions between Sect Master Lin and two Elders of the Elders’ Pavilion, the reward measures of the Holy Wind Sect are now announced as follows: The Holy Wind Sect will establish a contribution points reward system. Each time one performs a sect task or makes any contribution to the sect, they will earn a certain number of points. Once accumulated to a certain level, these points can be exchanged at the sect’s warehouse for some elixirs, Dharma treasures, or other heavenly materials and treasures. Unless special contributions warrant a reward, all other acquisitions depend on points."
"Perhaps everyone is unclear on the specifics, so let me explain. In the Holy Wind Sect, as long as your points suffice, you can even exchange them for the Heaven Origin Returning Immortal Pill, which helps promote you to a Human Immortal Powerhouse! In short, whatever elixir or Dharma treasure you wish to exchange for, the sect’s warehouse will not lack it. Even if it does, the Sect Master will personally craft it for you."
These were all Lin Feng’s arrangements. High-pressure policies alone are absolutely insufficient. It is imperative to give these people the momentum to stay with the Holy Wind Sect, and that momentum is the rewards within the sect’s warehouse. These rewards, accumulated by Lin Feng in his space ring, are all thrown in the sect warehouse for everyone to exchange with points. As for the elixir and Dharma treasure categories, Lin Feng need not worry since he has two disciples, Xia Lalan and Meng Zhu. They are ample for what these people need to exchange for. If there are any truly special elixirs needed, he personally crafting them is no issue.
"What!"
"Even the Heaven Origin Returning Immortal Pill is available!"
"And the Sect Master can even craft it personally!"
...
At these words, excited exclamations erupted among those present. Within the cultivation resources, what’s most difficult is the elixir. Yet here, in the Holy Wind Sect, elixirs can be exchanged through points, which presents an enormous temptation. This is because all grades of elixirs are available here; they can exchange for whatever they want. It is utterly incredible!
Even those already within the sect had their eyes shining. In the sect, they could indeed be rewarded some elixirs by the Sect Master, but those were always ordinary elixirs. Attempting to obtain important elixirs was nearly impossible. However, now, the Holy Wind Sect offered them hope. As long as they accumulate points, they can exchange for anything they wish, something no other sect could possibly provide. In other sects, high-rank elixirs and Dharma treasures are privileges only the Sect Master and Elders could enjoy. Now, they are entitled to this as well, how could they not be elated.
If anyone were displeased, it would be the Sect Masters or Family Heads of the major forces because they already sensed how enticing these conditions were. Even if they were unwilling to join the Holy Wind Sect, those under them might be tempted. Under such premises, if they wished to retain their respective sects, they’d have to devise new strategies.
Yet Xia Yuntian’s words did not end there, as he continued: "Aside from material rewards, there are additional benefits. For instance, within the sect, every seven days, an Elder above the Divine Change Realm will arrange to explain cultivation insights, and every month, an Elder from the Human Immortal Realm will elucidate on cultivation knowledge. Of course, if one desires individual guidance from other Human Immortal Realm powerhouses, it also requires point exchange, even including the Sect Master himself."
"Heavens!"
"This..."
"These benefits are too good!"
...
Upon hearing these, everyone present was stunned, nearly forgetting to breathe. To think, in the past, obtaining guidance from powerhouses above the Divine Change Realm was a matter of chance, yet here it transformed into ordinary benefits. Furthermore, receiving guidance from Human Immortal Realm powerhouses stirred an irresistible longing within them.
Everyone focused on Xia Yuntian’s final words, which suggested if they accumulated enough points, they could even seek individual guidance from Lin Feng. This was a lethal temptation. Lin Feng, who was he but the unparalleled genius throughout the ages, a legend unmatched in the world. If Lin Feng could guide them, their rate of progress would surely be astonishing. This alone was enough to drive everyone insane!
Seeing the reaction down below, Xia Yuntian felt quite satisfied with the results, thinking to himself that Lin Feng’s arrangements were indeed excellent. These easily captivated everyone’s attention, easing the establishment of the sect significantly. Not to mention these people, even he, the Family Head from one of the four great Prominent Families, was already tempted, not to consider others!
But there was more. Recalling Lin Feng’s words, Xia Yuntian continued to speak: "Everyone, please quiet down. The Holy Wind Sect has another piece of joyful news. Earlier, you’ve heard that the Holy Wind Sect has two separate halls: the Alchemy Hall and the Hall of Artifacts. You may not know what this entails, so let me explain. Any disciple within the Holy Wind Sect can apply to join the Alchemy Hall to study Alchemy or join the Hall of Artifacts to learn Artifact Refining. If you have the talent, the Alchemy or Artifact Hall will recruit and cultivate you. Should you become an Alchemist or Artifact Refiner, you’ll receive special contribution points within the sect."
As soon as Xia Yuntian finished speaking, the entire scene erupted. Everyone’s gaze fell upon Lin Feng, never expecting such a decision from the Holy Wind Sect. Initially, they thought the Alchemy and Artifact Halls were comprised of Alchemists and Artifact Refiners, only now realizing they not only are not inherently filled with Alchemists and Artifact Refiners but also recruit apprentices. Should they successfully join the Alchemy and Artifact Halls, anyone could gain an immensely bright future.
To know in this world, Alchemists or Artifact Refiners are exceedingly rare, with all prominent families and major forces monopolizing them. The vast majority do not have the opportunity to become Alchemists or Artifact Refiners. However, now the Holy Wind Sect has presented them a chance to emerge into some degree of prominence, which sends their hearts racing. Such an enticement is nothing short of overwhelming!
"No way, this Holy Wind Sect is amazing, I must join!"
"I want to become a Human Immortal powerhouse, I need the Heaven Origin Returning Immortal Pill!"
"Once I become an Alchemist, I’ll be an unrivaled powerhouse too!"
...
A majority of the people below buzzed with excitement, their expressions on high display throughout the crowd. The conditions offered by the Holy Wind Sect were immensely attractive, incomparable to other factions. Presently, their thoughts skewed towards immediately joining the Holy Wind Sect, swiftly taking on tasks, or applying to join the Alchemy or Artifact Halls. With points, anything is attainable within the Holy Wind Sect!
Meanwhile, the faces of Sect Masters and Family Heads from all factions turned even grimmer. None had anticipated Lin Feng would propose such conditions, haphazardly sighing inside. It’s probable only the Holy Wind Sect could show such generosity under the entire heaven. Comparatively, their previous sect rewards seemed terribly inferior, requiring much more effort to reconsolidate people’s hearts...
Watching the ongoing discussions below, Lin Feng wore a faint smile while Xia Yan and Song Hong, too, beamed brightly at the scene below. With such a beginning, the subsequent development of the Holy Wind Sect was bound to be extraordinarily prosperous.
Shortly thereafter, Lin Feng suddenly stood up and began to speak.
"Everyone, welcome to join the Holy Wind Sect; however, we will not insist on anyone joining today. For all loose cultivators and various factions present here today, the Holy Wind Sect grants you one month to consider. If you do not join the Holy Wind Sect within a month, please leave the Immortal-Slaying Secret Realm. I mentioned this before the sect was established."
"As for the loose cultivators and factions not present here today, we similarly grant a seven-day period. At that time, the Holy Wind Sect will issue its final ultimatum. Should anyone or any force neither join the Holy Wind Sect nor leave the Immortal-Slaying Secret Realm, the Holy Wind Sect will dispatch the Law Enforcement Team for elimination. If necessary, I, Lin Feng, will personally intervene. Please spread this notice after returning to ensure everyone is informed. I, Lin Feng, express my gratitude."
Upon completing these declarations, Lin Feng adopted an aura of somber solemnity. Among the people here, there were neither too few nor too many. Most were loose cultivators, and thus many forces were absent. What remained was the time for the Holy Wind Sect to assert its power. It was apparent some entities would refuse to join the Holy Wind Sect ultimately, marking the shift to showcase the sect’s strength. He aimed to instill universal clarity on one fact: the Holy Wind Sect’s words were not to be trifled, and all cultivators must comply with the sect’s dictates.
"Sect Master Lin, no need for further consideration. We will join the Holy Wind Sect now!"
"Sect Master Lin, how do we go about joining the Holy Wind Sect!"
"Sect Master Lin, we want to join the Holy Wind Sect immediately!"
...
A chorus of thousands below exclaimed at this very moment. The matters Lin Feng mentioned ignited little interest within them, buried beneath the ardent yearning to join the Holy Wind Sect instantly and start earning points. Concerning other aspects, their thoughts ceased. Who but a fool would refuse joining such an exemplary sect!
