Immortality Cultivation: I Can increase My Stats Using Clansmen's Qi-Blood

The Changqing Prefecture Sub-sect, this was undoubtedly the sacred land of alchemists of the Da Feng Dynasty in the early days.

But that Luo Mountain Prefecture Sub-sect.

After reformation, it has swiftly risen to prominence in this period and its comprehensive strength and foundation are now even capable of matching the Changqing Prefecture Sub-sect.

Under such circumstances, those sub-sects with lesser power have begun to hesitate.

The weaker sub-sects, during this time, have all been contemplating.

Who exactly should they choose to align with?

Should they side with the deeply rooted and traditionally powerful Changqing Prefecture Sub-sect, or with the Luo Mountain Prefecture Sub-sect, which has been rising rapidly and has an extremely formidable momentum?

Between these two options, careful consideration is necessary.

If one is not careful and chooses the wrong side.

Then, when either Luo Mountain Prefecture or Changqing Prefecture Sub-sect becomes this year’s top sub-sect and secures the right to apply for Spiritual Medicine,

Those sub-sects that chose wrongly will probably be dealt with one by one.

What? You say that sub-sects within the Wan Dan Sect shouldn’t behave like this.

Sub-sects should treat each other like brothers?

It’s one thing to say so, but is it really like that in practice?

The cultivation world is inherently a place where the strong prey on the weak, and only the fittest survive.

Within the sub-sects of the Wan Dan Sect, the factions are extremely intricate and complicated. Find adventures at NovelBin.Côm

Not to mention the sub-sects in other regions, even within the Main Sect of the Wan Dan Sect, there is no shortage of strife among various factions divided by surnames or families.

If it’s like this even in the Main Sect, then the rivalry between sub-sects is even more pronounced.

...

Da Feng Dynasty, Jiangnan Prefecture City.

Within the Wan Dan Sect Jiangnan Prefecture Sub-sect.

At this moment, within a palace, there are numerous old men with white hair and beards, whose figures are slightly stooped.

Gathered together in this palace.

It seems they are discussing something.

"This time, I have invited you all to discuss who will take the top position between Luo Mountain Prefecture Sub-sect and Changqing Prefecture Sub-sect..."

In the palace.

The one sitting at the highest seat,

Looking like a young man, the current Sect Master of Jiangnan Prefecture Sub-sect, Cui Zigong,

was calmly speaking to the people before him at that moment.

Jiangnan Prefecture Sub-sect ranks third in overall strength among the thirteen sub-sects of the Da Feng Dynasty,

Just behind Luo Mountain Prefecture and Changqing Prefecture Sub-sects.

In principle, Jiangnan Prefecture Sub-sect should also be qualified to contend for the throne of the top sub-sect.

But unfortunately, both Changqing Prefecture and Luo Mountain Prefecture Sub-sects have strength that is somewhat too terrifying.

With no other choice, Jiangnan Prefecture Sub-sect had to give up the contest for the top sub-sect position.

Instead, it has called together all other sub-sect leaders from around the Da Feng Dynasty to gather in this palace to discuss this matter.

"For something like this, even Sect Master Cui doesn’t know, how could we old men possibly know?"

Inside the great hall, a bald old man slightly smiled as he spoke.

"Sect Master Cui might as well directly state which side you favor..."

Another old man whose face was covered with freckles,

also slightly raised his head at that moment.

Looking at Cui Zigong in front of him, he spoke softly.

"Is it imperative to take sides? Is neutrality not an option?"

A brawny old man, who looked somewhat out of place with the others, glanced at the person next to him before speaking out.

Neutrality is indeed possible.

But if one truly chooses neutrality,

the ones who align with another sect that succeeds will invariably get the Spiritual Medicine they need more swiftly when they apply together.

And if there’s a limited quantity of Spiritual Medicine...

The neutral parties will not be able to obtain the medicine they need.

If this continues over an extended period,

the sub-sect you belong to will naturally weaken gradually.

...

As time passed,

The voices discussing became louder and louder.

But though it’s called a discussion,

Jiangnan Prefecture Sub-sect appeared to be inclining towards Changqing Prefecture Sub-sect.

"Sect Master Cui, since our opinions aren’t aligning, I’ll take my leave first..."

Suddenly, one of the elders silently stood up,

Bowed slightly to Cui Zigong before him,

Then turned and walked step by step out of the room.

The one who left was the current Sect Master of White Lotus Prefecture Sub-sect,

Ranking eighth in overall strength in the Da Feng Dynasty.

Not particularly high, but not low either.

"I apologize..."

Following the departure of the White Lotus Prefecture Sub-sect Sect Master,

In the palace, a few more sub-sect leaders stood up one after another.

And they too left the palace.

This caused the atmosphere in the palace to become somewhat heavy for a time.

However, fortunately, the departing sub-sects were of lower overall strength.

Even if those sub-sects chose to take refuge with Luo Mountain Prefecture Sub-sect, they posed no significant threat to the Changqing Prefecture Sub-sect faction.

"Alright, since no one else is leaving, I’ll continue..."

After looking around at everyone,

Cui Zigong waited a moment longer, then cleared his throat.

But just as he was about to continue,

One of the elders who had been sitting quietly with his eyes shut all along, as if he had been asleep,

Dressed in a black robe and wearing a dark hat on his head,

Which set him apart from the rest as someone who seemed to not fit in with the scene,

Suddenly stood up.

"Eh? What’s going on, why has everyone left?"

"To leave without calling me."

"Really now..."

The elder grumbled as he stood up and straightened his back.
