Yi Tianyun now had a general grasp of the situation. It was just as the Great Elder and the others had said: the rak Sect was founded by the Profound Celestial Spirit King, making it essentially a branch of the Celestial Extre Mansion. However, they could also be considered separate, as they had beco their own sect. The crucial difference now was that he was the Mansion Master.
The Celestial Extre Mansion was currently in decline, but it still had a deep foundation. As a place for cultivation, it was far superior to the Celestial Sinking Ruins. Therefore, rging them would be ideal, as it would imdiately and greatly strengthen the rak Sect.
Yi Tianyun promptly recounted the events of the past few days, including how he beca the Mansion Master of the Celestial Extre Mansion, laying everything out so he could discuss the matter with Shi Xueyun and the others.
"As the Mansion Master of the Celestial Extre Mansion, I am technically from the sa lineage as the rak Sect, but that doesn’t really matter anymore. What’s important is that we can rge. However, I don’t intend to integrate them completely. They will remain as they are," Yi Tianyun said after a mont of thought. "Disciples from the Celestial Extre Mansion will be allowed to join, but we will maintain our focus on having primarily female disciples and providing specialized training. What does everyone think?"
Many elders and deacons were present in the hall, and they were all stunned by Yi Tianyun’s words. To think that in such a short ti, he had beco the Mansion Master of a Third-Grade Faction was simply astonishing.
"If this were a complete rger, I definitely wouldn’t agree," the speaker said. It was not one of the other elders, but Yi Yuwei. After a mont of thought, she continued, "The reason is quite simple. Even though Elder Yi is the Mansion Master there, their group is more diverse and would be difficult to manage, especially at the beginning. It could easily cause chaos. However, keeping them separate is a good option. We could operate as two major factions, each focusing on different Martial Arts."
"Exactly. I agree with the Fifth Elder," said Elder Mo Yu. "When it cos to rging with the Celestial Extre Mansion, I will follow Elder Yi’s lead. But regardless of whether we share the sa origin, we were originally separate, so we shouldn’t be completely integrated. Things should stay as they were."
Yi Tianyun looked toward Shi Xueyun. ’I wonder what she thinks?’
"I feel much the sa way. Although that is our ancestor’s sect, things are different now. We have our own rhythm, and we are confident in our ability to grow stronger!" Shi Xueyun declared, her tone firm. "We will make the na of rak renowned far and wide!"
Yi Tianyun’s eyes lit up, and he smiled. "But of course. It’ll be like an alliance for mutual developnt. You’ll remain as you are, but our two sides will be completely interconnected. We’ll share resources, help one another, and mbers will be free to join either group. There’s no problem with any of that."
Their main concern was the potential disappearance of the rak Sect’s na. They were the rak Sect, not the Celestial Extre Mansion! Even if the Celestial Extre Mansion was their ancestor’s sect, that was in the past; things were completely different now. It was like not wanting your own na to be suddenly changed against your will.
"Alright, let’s define it this way then. One mansion, two sects: the Celestial Extre Sect and the rak Sect. To the public, we’ll be known as Shuanglong Prefecture. How does that sound?" Yi Tianyun chose a na that was a bit cliché. Shuanglong Prefecture essentially ant that the two sects were two giant dragons, ready to command the heavens and soar at a mont’s notice!
"No problem!"
They all nodded emphatically. This was the independence they wanted, so the arrangent was perfect. As long as they could keep the na ’rak,’ they didn’t care about the other changes.
"Alright then, it’s settled." Yi Tianyun smiled and nodded. "However, we can’t move over just yet. When the ti cos, I’ll relocate the entire Celestial Sinking Ruins to serve as our new headquarters! Then it won’t be ruins anymore, but a Divine Hall—our rak Divine Hall!"
"The Celestial Sinking Ruins... can be moved?" They were all stunned. Could such a colossal structure really be relocated?
"Of course it can. You’ll all find out when the ti cos." Yi Tianyun just smiled, not explaining in detail.
’I can’t repair this Flying Array just yet, though I’m getting close. But even if it were fixed, I don’t plan to move imdiately. Things are too chaotic right now; it’s safer to stay here. The ti to move will be when my cultivation level has increased and the sect’s power has grown!’
After everything was clarified, Yi Tianyun went inside the Celestial Sinking Ruins to begin engraving other arrays. The first one he set out to create was the array from the Celestial Soul Tower. He believed it would be a great help in training disciples in that specific discipline, so he began the process.
He hadn’t been engraving for long when he noticed soone nearby. Turning his head, he saw Jiu Lingyun watching him and smiled. "Ninth Sister, what’s up?"
Jiu Lingyun laughed sheepishly. "Yi... I’m sorry to bother you. I saw you were Engraving Divine Patterns, so I tried not to interrupt... Am I bothering you?"
"Not at all. If you want to watch, co take a look." Yi Tianyun gestured for her to co closer and explained, "I’m engraving a Spiritual Array. It bombards the user with Spiritual Power, but it also accelerates their cultivation speed. It’s an excellent array for training Divine Rune disciples!"
"It’s that incredible!?" Jiu Lingyun exclaid excitedly. "I’ve actually had a similar idea and have been experinting with it. I failed many tis, but I finally managed to create a small part... Yi, could you take a look at it for ?"
"Of course, no problem." Yi Tianyun was sowhat surprised.
Soon, Jiu Lingyun led him to a room completely covered in Divine Runes that looked quite professional. She quickly activated the array, which imdiately sent out a wave of runic power while also accelerating the absorption of Spiritual Power. It was remarkably similar to the one he intended to create, but its effect was a step below his. This was because its output was fixed and couldn’t be adjusted.
Still, this was enough to leave Yi Tianyun stunned. ’She’s basically self-taught! A genius, an absolute genius!’
"Ninth Sister, you’re incredible!" Yi Tianyun said, amazed. "To have figured all this out on your own is truly remarkable!"
"Really!?" Jiu Lingyun’s face flushed beet-red at the praise, and she grew flustered. "I was afraid you’d laugh at , Yi..."
"What is there to be afraid of? You have imnse talent!" After a mont’s thought, Yi Tianyun said, "Co, I’ll teach you the finer points. For example, this section needs to be modified, and over here, you should do it like this..."
He began to point out the details, and Jiu Lingyun watched with intense concentration.
"Oh, so that’s how it works! Thank you, Yi!" Jiu Lingyun flashed a brilliant smile. Though her features were plain, her smile was truly beautiful.
The sight made Yi Tianyun pause for a mont. ’A genuine smile from the heart,’ he thought, ’is the most beautiful and radiant of all.’
"Ding! Hidden Quest ’Advanced Training for the Saintess’ completed. Reward: 1,000,000 Experience, 50,000 Madness Value, 100 Character Value, and Divine Rune Mastery increased by 1,000 points!"
Yi Tianyun was taken aback. ’So that hidden quest popped up again,’ he thought. ’It seems I can complete tasks like this by teaching her and helping her grow stronger.’
