Zhou Hui silently observed as the cultivator whom he had considered a rival not long ago now stood at the helm of a procession that represented the combined forces of the Sacred Flame Palace and the Divine Mountain Sect— a feat that should have been unimaginable in and of itself. He watched as Lei Weiyuan and Kang Long, both revered cultivators who had stood at the apex of their respective sects, acknowledged their allegiance to another. It was not, however, the exhilarating thrill of victory that…

A heavy, oppressive silence blanketed the clearing as the Elders of the Sacred Flame Palace and the Divine Mountain Sect stood behind Yao Shen, their expressions solemn as their gazes gathered upon the only two remaining cultivators that stood opposing Yao Shen. The Patriarch of the Sacred Flame Palace. Lei Weiyuan. The Patriarch of the Divine Mountain Sect, Kang Long. Yao Shen’s human sight instinctively shifted to the two Patriarchs, no trace of surprise reflected upon his face when he found…

The core formation guardian of the Divine Mountain Sect who held the peak-quality communication mirror in his hands had an increasingly stupefied expression on his face as he watched Yao Shen tear through his Patriarch’s indomitable Divine Mountain Domain with his physical strength alone, a feat that alone threatened to shatter the guardian’s worldview. He watched as the assault lead by the fearsome Elder Yongliang of the Sacred Flame Palace was dispatched with ease, Yao Shen walking out unscathed…

Yao Shen unleashed his domain— imposing his will over the natural law that governed Eliria, proclaiming that the surrounding territory fell under his dominion. Within his domain, Yao Shen was the sovereign— any foriegn entity that dared to encroach upon his territory would face suppression from the laws of Wind, Water and Shadow, restricting them from taking flight or tunneling through the ground unless they were able to escape its sphere of influence. Or so it should have been. For Yao Shen’s…

Another volley of attacks landed upon Yao Shen’s soul, a few of the elders having recovered enough to muster a response. The attacks unsurprisingly failed to pierce his soul’s defence, eliciting an irritated frown from Yao Shen as his temper started to flare up again. His figure blurred as he charged towards the elders who had attracted his ire, his imposing frame blitzing forth with surprising agility as he rapidly closed the distance. A aged elder dressed in vibrant red robes stood at the forefront…

Yao Shen’s robes fluttered in the wind as his gaze fell upon the elders of the Divine Mountain Sect and the Sacred Flame Palace. A small strand of his divine sense focused upon the hourglass, sensing each grain of sand trickle down the slender tube as he took the time to mentally prepare himself. The comprehensive might of two hegemonic sects of the Azlak Plains lay arrayed against him, the elders exuding an oppressive aura as they readied their weapons for battle. Their sharp, focused gazes tracked…

Yao Shen’s eyes snapped open, his expression composed as he slowly sat up— the bed of clouds underneath him shifting to accommodate the weight. Only a few hours had passed since he had turned in for the night, but there was no trace of grogginess reflected upon his sharp features. Without dithering any further, Yao Shen got up from the bed and moved towards the eastern side of the room, reaching for the handle of an antiquated, wooden almirah. A selection of fine robes greeted his sight, arrayed in a…

Once Yanyue accepted the Heart Cleansing Sea-Pearl, Yao Shen gave her clear instructions to only use it for cultivation once a week, and that too in Shadow’s presence. A Nascent Soul Natural Treasure was too potent an attraction for a mid-foundation establishment disciple, and Shadow’s oversight would ensure that she did not overdraw on Water Qi and damage her meridians in the process. Yanyue wisely chose to hand over the Sea-Pearl to Shadow for safe keeping, a course of action Yao Shen would have…

“Yanyue, Shadow, approach,” Yao Shen softly requested, as he sealed the Heart Cleansing Sea-Pearl with a flourish of his hand. A dazed Yanyue trailed behind her senior sister, Shadow, whose expression remained as impassive as usual. As one attuned to the Water Element, even Yao Shen’s domain could not obfuscate the spike in Water Qi she had felt moments earlier, the purity so unnaturally high that Yanyue struggled to describe the experience. She had merely taken a glimpse at the blue orb held in…

Three hours passed as Yao Shen and Zhou Hui debated upon the direction of the soon to be established Modern Sect, a divine sense ward isolating the specifics of their discussion from from his disciples. It was, of course, not a matter of trust, but comfort— there would be certain topics that Zhou Hui would not be willing to bring up in front of young disciples, or matters pertaining to sect secrets that his disciples were not yet qualified to know. Zhou Hui animatedly brought up a few reforms and policy…
