Cultivating with Top Enlightenment

Chapter 631: Chapter 285: Killing the Chickens to Warn the Monkeys (Part 4)

After a while, everyone finally felt relieved and came back to their senses.

"Congratulations to Sect Leader Ning. Although Beixuan Upper Sect is destroyed, the Infinite Sword Sect has risen even higher, which reassures us."

What reassured them was that Beixuan Domain had been long without an Integration Realm presence, and the neighboring Southern True Domain would definitely send Integration Realm elites to spy on Beixuan Domain.

Although Beixuan Domain could not compare to Southern True Domain, it was still one domain, and how could the top sects of Southern True Domain ignore such a ripe opportunity?

Everyone returned to their sect with complicated emotions to report to the Sect Leader.

Naturally, this once again shocked the sect leaders!

They one by one ordered that from now on, they must never provoke the Infinite Sword Sect again.

Of course, there were those who did not come, coincidentally the sect that had five of their Great Powers slain by Ning Qi last time.

After all, their Great Powers were killed, and they were already quite fortunate not to have sought revenge, yet the dissatisfaction within their sect remained.

Hence, when the Feather Transformation Upper Sect from Southern True Domain sent people to Beixuan Domain, the Five Sects immediately responded to their actions.

They followed along, dividing the remaining assets of Beixuan Upper Sect, and seeing the Infinite Sword Sect’s low profile, they used the momentum of the Feather Transformation Upper Sect to seize some of the Infinite Sword Sect’s assets.

However, now, although they had not arrived, they received confirmation from other sects of Ning Qi’s entry into the Integration Realm.

Immediately, three sects sent people rushing over.

Ning Qi did not give them face, and did not meet them personally, but let Vice Sect Leader Cang Wanhe handle it.

Finally, under Cang Wanhe’s courtesy.

Not only did the three sects return all seized Infinite Sword Sect resources intact, they even added plenty more as gifts to congratulate Ning Qi’s promotion to Giant.

It was clear to everyone that these congratulations were nothing more than compensation, fearing that Ning Qi would settle accounts.

Though the Feather Transformation Upper Sect was intent on advancing into Beixuan Domain, they were even more intimidated by Ning Qi’s power in comparison.

After all, Ning Qi could slay unparalleled Great Powers even before his breakthrough, what more after his breakthrough?

Among the Five Sects, three sects personally came with apologies, while two remained absent.

They were unwilling to give back the gains they had made, believing that since Ning Qi killed their Great Powers, their invasion of the Infinite Sword Sect’s resources compensated for their loss, appeasing the members within their sect.

Moreover, the Feather Transformation Upper Sect had been established in Southern True Domain for hundreds of thousands of years, and undoubtedly, their top sects were stronger than Beixuan Domain.

Ning Qi had only just stepped into the Integration Realm, how could he possibly contend with the Giants of Southern True Domain’s top sects?

Ning Qi smiled, the sect to serve as a cautionary example had finally emerged.

He directly instructed a sect elder to convey a message, giving them a one-month deadline, warning the two absent sects that if they did not come, they would bear the consequences themselves.

One of these sects gathered the sect leader, elders, and true inheritors for a collective discussion.

Ultimately, they concluded that the Infinite Sword Sect was surging with momentum; since Ning Qi gained fame as the Immortal Species, he had won numerous battles, and no one had ever seen him use his full power.

Moreover, the Feather Transformation Upper Sect’s roots were in Southern True Domain, and even if they indeed advanced northward, would they truly care about these sects?

So, in the last three days of the month, the sect leader personally came to the Infinite Sword Sect.

He adopted an extremely humble posture, not only returning all seized assets but also presenting fifty years of the sect’s resources to the Infinite Sword Sect.

He also informed Ning Qi that behind their actions was the Feather Transformation Upper Sect’s instigation and even the Celestial Star Upper Sect had intentions to intervene.

He hoped Ning Qi would consider everything they had done and spare them.

Ning Qi remained silent for a moment, then swept a mild glance at the sect leader.

The sect leader dared not even breathe, standing as if he had been plucked from water.

He had personally met the envoy from the Feather Transformation Upper Sect, feeling at that moment, that the envoy was indeed worthy of their status as a top sect - imposing and poised.

Facing Ning Qi now, he realized one was on the ground, the other in the sky, the difference was as between clouds and mud.

"Alright, you’ll be spared this time, but if you dare again, you’ll soon learn the outcome!"

"Thank you, Sect Leader Ning!"

Three days quietly passed, and until the end, the remaining Blood Demon Sect still did not come.

Ning Qi was not angry; having a tough bone to chew was precisely what he hoped for.

On this day.

Ning Qi led the team, leaving the Sword Ancestor to guard the Infinite Sword Sect, followed by many Great Powers and True Inheritors, heading towards the Blood Demon Sect.
