“Is this the Sect Master’s Spirit World? What a beautiful place! The density of true essence here is comparable to the Primordial God Realm. One could even say that it is better by a small amount! Amazing!”
Among the disciples of the Heavenly Sword Tower, only a few of them had the chance to visit the Spirit World. Most of them were still unfamiliar with the place, so they all revealed looks of shock and amazement. Even those who had already visited the Spirit World were still surprised by the massive changes they saw. For example, Yang Zenke, the Division Head of the Blood Sword Division.
During their time in the Silver Wing Empire in Nuar, Yang Zenke and the rest of the one hundred former slaves trained in the Spirit World. At that time, the world was still growing and it didn’t have the presence of strong savage beasts like it did now.
“Sect Master’s means are truly unfathomable…” Yang Zenke muttered to himself as he stared at the silver-haired young man leading them.
In truth, Jiu Shen was also stunned by the massive changes in the Spirit World. It only took a little more than ten years for the Spirit World to develop to such heights, but it was understandable. The timeflow inside the Spirit World was much faster than outside. Even so, it was still shocking!
“Listen, everyone! Your progress in cultivation has been fast because of the cultivation hall. However, most of you still lack the necessary battle experience for someone at your level. To make up for this weakness, I brought you all to this Spirit World and give you the chance to gain more battle experience! You will be staying here for the next ten years and kill as many savage beasts as you can! Your kills will be recorded and all of you will be ranked according to your number of kills and the strength of the savage beasts that you’ve killed! At the end of this training, the top 100 among you will get a reward from me! As for those that fail to reach the top 100, you will still receive rewards according to your performance!” Jiu Shen decided earlier to spur everyone’s growth by doing this. With the concept of rewards, everyone’s fighting spirit would be roused and they would do everything in their power to outshine everyone.
“Sect Master, can we join as well?” Yin Long, the former leader of the God Sword Region’s remnant force asked through spiritual transmission.
Jiu Shen glanced at the old man and sent him a transmission, his voice contained a hint of exasperation. “Old brat, you’re already a Heavenly God Realm expert and you still want to compete with these bunch of kids? Shame on you!”
When he heard Jiu Shen’s words, Yin Long could only smile awkwardly. After knowing that Jiu Shen was the same man known as the fourth strongest expert in the Primordial God Realm, his enthusiasm toward the Heavenly Sword Tower reached its peak. Anything given by Jiu Shen was certainly a treasure, so he wanted to see if he could join the training competition as well.
“Don’t worry. I have a separate mission for you old brats. In this Spirit World, there are seven Heavenly God Realm savage beasts. Six of them are at the early stage of the Heavenly God Realm while the last one is at the mid stage. Your job is to make sure that none of our disciples are killed by those seven savage beasts. Remember, you will only make a move if those seven beasts are involved. Other than that, you can just watch them silently. If they die, then they die! If we are always there to save them, then they can never truly progress to become peerless experts! As for those seven savage beasts, don’t kill them. I still have some use for them.” Jiu Shen sent the transmission to Yin Long, Ka Wayan, and Gu San, the three Heavenly God Realm experts of the former God Sword Region.
The three nodded their heads seriously upon getting the message. It looks like the Sect Master is increasing the difficulty of their training. However, they also understood the logic behind his actions. After all, once they show themselves to the public, they would become enemies with the Celestial Paragon Tower and Celestial Emperor Lao Gou!
Jiu Shen glanced at everyone and announced in a cold voice. “I hope I can see you guys again ten years later!”
After saying those words, he left the Spirit World with Theia, Hestia, and Ren Shuang. These three were already peerless cultivators in their past lives, so there was no need for them to join the training. As for Atlas, he was responsible for monitoring the dragon building, so he didn’t join the training as well.
When they left, everyone from the Heavenly Sword Tower immediately dispersed to search for their prey. With the rewards for the top 100, they were eager to begin their hunt!

“Is this the dragon building that you always talked about?” Telu asked the old man beside him as he looked at the beautiful and regal dragon building behind the golden fences.
Valir was shocked when he spotted the dragon building. Even from afar, the two of them already sensed the Protective Array Formations inscribed all over the place. This wine store was even more well protected than the gates of their golden tower! Just the number of Celestial-rank Protective Array Formations here made them stunned!
“Sect Master, initially, I thought that our subordinates were just exaggerating the reputation of this wine store, but from the looks of it…” Valir smiled helplessly.
Telu nodded his head in agreement. Even before they entered the golden gates, he could already feel the power emanating from the hidden Protective Array Formations! In terms of defense, this wine store was even ahead compared to their golden tower! He couldn’t imagine how much wealth was needed to construct so many Array Formations around the dragon building! “It seems like Sword God Jian Wang truly has a connection with Asmodeus, the sole expert in Array Formation Making among the three Celestial Emperors…”
