Chapter 745 – Holy Ming Sacred Land
Hearing about the tournament from Wang Xiong, Lin Wu was certainly intrigued.
'Them having three separate tournaments is certainly a clever play on their part. This way they can prevent any random dark horses, not from their sects from taking the rewards that were intended for their disciples.
Since the entire tournament was organized by the top sects, there was little the other powers could do. There was still the Long clan above them all, but it didn't really care for it.
And neither did the Ji clan or the Lian clan. All of them had several sects under their control, thus if they truly wanted such rewards they could easily get them without going through the entire thing.
Besides, some of the rarer rewards of the tournament were given by those clans in the first place!
The Long Continent Grand Sect Tournament was still important though as it decided the rankings of the sect which would then decide who gets a say in many resources of the Long Continent.
The lower the rank of a sect, the harder it would be for them to fully claim an area filled with resources. There were often rare treasures and spirit herbs being born and the sects would try to get them.
Depending on the ranks it would be harder or easier for its members to get them as the others would oppose them accordingly.
Though in the end, it was all a matter of prestige.
The Frozen Cloud sect was ranked fifth in the rankings till last year, but after the massacre and loss of half their elders, they were now considered to be the lowest. While the official ranking would only be changed after the tournament most of the sects and other powers were sure that the Frozen Cloud sect was bound to fall.
The massacre had also come at a very bad time for the Frozen Cloud sect as the tournament was right around the corner. It only happened once every fifty years, and the last time it had happened, Wang Xiong had barely reached the core condensation realm.
He had participated in the mid level tournament which was for the normal disciples and had been wiped out after the very first rounds. It was there that he had truly learned just how many powerhouses existed in the cultivation world.
The Long Continent Grand Sect Tournament was in fact one of the motivations for him and had pushed him to gain power at the Millennium forest.
"This is certainly interesting alright." Lin Wu said after hearing everything from Wang Xiong.
"Indeed. If all goes well, and I manage to rank in the top five, I'll get to enter the Holy Ming Sacred Land." Wang Xiong said with excitement.
Lin Wu felt like he had heard about the Holy Ming sacred land before.
"This is the minor plane that is collectively controlled by the sects right?" Lin Wu asked.
"Oh? You know about it too senior. But yes, it is that. It is filled with dense spirit Qi and is said to be the best place to cultivate in the entire long continent. It is filled with a myriad of treasures and it is even said that cultivating there for just a year is the same as cultivating for a century outside." Wang Xiong replied with excitement.
"Is that so…" Lin Wu said as his eyes lightly glowed.
'System, show me all the information you have on the Holy Ming Sacred Land.' Lin Wu ordered.
~DING~
——
ANSWER: The Holy Ming Sacred Land is a minor dimension located at a secret location only known to the patriarchs of the top ten sects. It has a high concentration of spirit Qi and is kept closed for most of the time.
Only when it is the time for the tournament will it be opened as a reward. But even then, only the top five winners of the Long Continent Grand Sect Tournament will be allowed to enter it.
The time limit to stay there is one year and after that, the disciples would be automatically ejected by the formation arrays.
This is done so as to allow the Holy Ming Sacred Land to regenerate all the spirit Qi that it has lost.
Additional records state that the Holy Ming Sacred Land is was actually created by the Invaders as a means to rear rare spirit herbs. But was later taken over by the sects and is now jointly controlled.
It has a record of nurturing future patriarchs. It is said that the ones who enter it will have a 50% chance of becoming a patriarch of a top sect in the future. Even Patriarch Bing of the Frozen Cloud sect had entered the Holy Ming Sacred Land in the past.
——
Seeing the system's information, Lin Wu was certainly impressed. He even wondered if he should enter it himself.
"Is there any way we can enter it too, system?" Lin Wu questioned.
~DING~
——
ANSWER: It is certainly possible for the host to enter the Holy Ming Sacred Land. But the minor plane is under the control of the sects and is constantly under surveillance. The host might be able to enter it with no problem, but the sects will inevitably discover them.
What happens after that only has negative results according to the system's analysis.
——
"Oh yeah… that won't be nice…" Lin Wu put away his thoughts of entering it.
"Still, as long as Wang Xiong can enter it, that will be good." Lin Wu muttered.
~DING~
——
SUGGESTION: according to the host's plan of nurturing subordinates and establishing power, the System suggests that the host support Pei Jun and Tian Xiaoge in entering it too.
According to the already records, there have been many disciples who managed to reach the Dao Shell realm by the time they came out of the Holy Ming Sacred land. All those that entered were at the Nascent Soul realm.
And since all three of them have the help of good cultivation techniques, this result will be inevitable.
——
"System, you just spoke my mind!" Lin Wu said with a wide smile.
