Chapter 238: Everyone Gathers
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
At the same time, the instant where the thousands of cultivators from the four major Dao Colleges stepped into the vortex teleportation portal and entered the Mystic Luna Realm, the different factions of the Federation on the moon base camp also gathered and sent their disciples into their respective vortex teleportation portals.
At the base camp entrance of one of the major sects of the Federation, the Galactic Dusk Sect, a sect that shared a different kind of relations.h.i.+p with the disciples from the four major Dao Colleges—there was a chilling silence.
Thousands of disciples from the Galactic Dusk Sect all carried a chill in their eyes as they walked towards the vortex teleportation portal in silence. There was also a distance between each of them as if they didn’t want others to come near them.
An evil vibe emanated from their bodies and was accentuated by the chilly look contained in their eyes. They appeared indifferent towards life, and the coldness deep within their pupils made every single one of them seem like they were out to kill.
They were the other faction of the Federation, the Galactic Dusk Sect, which was in the process of being recognized!
The Galactic Dusk Sect was different from the one in the eyes of the commoners of the Federation, one that emphasized tradition and customs, one that was mysterious and carried a sense of antiquity. The real Galactic Dusk Sect was an extremely cruel, compet.i.tive, goal-oriented sect. To a certain extent, calling it a demonic sect wouldn’t be considered an exaggeration.
The Galactic Dusk Sect disciples amongst the Federation Seedlings were specially selected to be those who were lacking in murderous intent and evilness. After all, the selection process of the Federation Seedlings would be broadcast throughout the Federation, and there was a need to put in the effort to uphold its image.
In reality, the Galactic Dusk Sect disciples chosen to become Federation seedlings were also outstanding, but were less so compared to the real elites of the Galactic Dusk Sect!
The elites amongst them didn’t have to be made known to the entire world. Amongst the crowds, there were two individuals who were the elites of the Galactic Dusk Sect!
Even though they were nestled within the crowds, they still attracted other people’s attention. It was as if they carried a unique vibe that allowed them to be identified easily, even amongst the crowd.
The duo comprised of a male and a female. The male was a skinny youth with a chilly look in his eyes. There was a scar on his face, and a black bandage on his right hand, with waves of black auras emerging continuously from the bandage. As the aura surrounded him, it made the youth appear even more ruthless and vicious, his rebelliousness accentuated.
The female was exactly the opposite of the male. She was extremely beautiful, elegant, and pure, like a white lotus flower. She was dressed in a long white skirt, her beauty extremely pure. However, for someone who had survived within the Galactic Dusk Sect and had reached the top, she was definitely not a weakling. No one dared to come within thirty feet of her, and cautiousness was apparent in the gaze of the people surrounding her.
It appeared that the level of threat posed by the female was difficult to gauge. That was especially so as she would occasionally reveal an alluring gaze in her eyes. However, if one took a closer look, one could sense ruthlessness behind that attractive appearance.
At the same time, in the other base camp of the Plume Manifestation Connate Sect, one of the two sects of the Federation, a different scenario was playing out. Compared to that of the Galactic Dusk Sect, disciples from the Plume Manifestation Connate Sect were mostly physically advanced individuals. The goal of the entire sect was to reach one’s physical limits. Their cultivation also revolved around the principle of going back to the basics.
That was especially so as there were more female disciples than male disciples within the sect. Therefore, in the eyes of the other faction, females outnumbered males, and all the female disciples were ill-tempered—even more so than the males!
Other than those two sects, there was also the Five Generation Sky Clan that were being teleported into the vortex on the moon base camp. The Five Generation Sky Clan could be considered the most dated alliance of five family clans. The fact that they address themselves as a ‘Sky Clan’ implied the pride and value they place on their own bloodline.
The Zhuo family was one of the ruling families of the Five Generation Sky Clan. In the alliance of the large ancient sky clan, there were five ruling families, each with different surnames, encompa.s.sing both western and eastern forces.
At the same time, there were even more families that depended on the five ruling families, making them a force that couldn’t be disregarded, one whose traditions were more deep-rooted than any other.
To a certain degree, the seventeen-member Senate shared many similarities with the Five Generation Sky Clan. One could even say that if the seventeen-member Senate were to be given enough time such that the family clans within them could progress through generations without facing the danger of being eliminated, they could perhaps form a huge family clan like that of the Five Generation Sky Clan.
Therefore, they shared a close relations.h.i.+p. For instance, their base camps on the moon weren’t far away from each other. In the base camp of the seventeen-member Senate, Li Xiu and the sons of other senators, as well as a large number of escorts, were stepping into the vortex teleportation portal as they headed to the Mystic Luna Realm.
It could be said that every unit within the Federation would partic.i.p.ate every time the Mystic Luna Realm was opened. Naturally, there were no exceptions during the current opening. Even the Trilunaris Corporation sent out some clansmen to gain some luck.
However, the Trilunaris Corporation was different from the other factions. Even though they had sent people to the Mystic Luna Realm previously, it was all for show. The people they had sent were all relatives or relatives of relatives, as people who belonged to the Clan line would never appear.
That was because, to them, as long as it was a matter that could be solved using money, there was no need to fight for it with their lives.
However, it was somewhat different for once. Within the large and luxurious base camp of the Trilunaris Corporation, a youth dressed in a checkered s.h.i.+rt, bermudas, and wearing a pair of aviator sungla.s.ses, was lying on a large chair in front of the vortex teleportation portal, snoring as he napped.
Surrounding him were thirty-odd scantily dressed women. All of them looked sweet and beautiful, and all had a high level of cultivation. They were chatting, while some were holding up an umbrella for him, some were giving him a ma.s.sage, and some were peeling fruit for him… Even though he had fallen asleep, they didn’t stop indulging him.
At the same time, surrounding the large chair were ten impressive cultivators who were acting as his bodyguards. As they guarded him, there were also two seventy feet tall apes who were squatting on both sides of the chair.
Even closer to the periphery, on the two sides of the vortex teleportation portal, were a few elders from Trilunaris Corporation who were all Core Formation cultivators, looking helplessly at the snoring youth. They then turned to look at each other, sighing from the bottom of their hearts.
“What is Young Master thinking about… Isn’t it enough for him to train back home? Why is he here as someone of Foundation Establishment cultivation? After all, the Old Master gave him a complete artifact.”
“Young Master has made a bet with someone that he wouldn’t depend on the family clan, and would reach the Foundation Establishment stage based on his own abilities. Therefore, he came here while the Old Master is in seclusion.”
“Isn’t that creating a nuisance? Quick, alert the other parties… This honorable person… Nothing bad must happen to him here…” The elder shook his head helplessly. However, he didn’t know how to persuade the youth otherwise. After all, the youth was one of the two remaining successors of the Trilunaris Corporation.
To Trilunaris Corporation, which was completely controlled by the other family clans, even though he was merely at the True Breath realm, his level of cultivation could be ignored as he was of such high status and supported richly by material resources.
As the elders fretted over the matter, the Young Master of the Trilunaris Corporation lying on the chair sneezed, waking up dazedly. When he raised his right hand, the women beside him all gathered around, helping him up. The youth yawned as he asked the people around him whether it was time for the mystic realm to open. After receiving confirmation, the youth grew energetic as he pointed forward with his right finger.
“Let’s move out!”
The moment he commanded, two large wolves roared as they raised the chair. With the women and bodyguards gathering around him, the crowd advanced towards the vortex.
As the various factions of the Federation gathered on the moon and entered the Mystic Luna Realm, a bright glow s.h.i.+mmered from within a basin on the moon’s bright side. Tens of thousands of disciples from the four major Dao realms gradually appeared.
Very soon, as the area came into view, sounds of discussion and rapid breathing spread in all directions.
w.a.n.g Baole, who was within the crowds, also took a quick look in all directions. After noticing that he had left the base camp, he looked towards the black sky and the desert-like yellow-colored ground, experiencing the suppressive force coming from the Mystic Luna Realm as his heart beat faster and faster.
Before long, after familiarizing themselves with the environment, there were some people from the four major Dao Colleges who chose to leave. Some of them left in crowds of three to five, while some left alone.
Of the remaining people, the senior disciples who had discussed and sought the views of each other decided to move in unison in their search for fragments.
Huang Shan from the Traps Pavilion was also amongst them.
w.a.n.g Baole thought about it and discussed with Zhuo Yifan and Zhao Yameng before deciding not to make a move first. Rather, they chose to join forces with the ma.s.ses, searching for the fragments together for a while, before deciding whether to separate from them based on the circ.u.mstances.
As such, the hundreds of people from the four major Dao Colleges left the basin and headed into the distance in strength and vigor after making their decisions…
