C803 The Tide(part Ii)
The current situation in the Dongzhou seemed very strange. A great devil had emerged, occupied the Boundless Forest and established the Celestial Devil Sect. It was as if he was planning to live in harmony with the Cultivation Realm of the Dongzhou.
However, in fact, anyone with discerning eyes could tell that the Dongzhou was facing a huge crisis. It could even be said that the crisis of life and death was right in front of their eyes.
Because the devil was after all a devil and not a cultivator, no one could be sure when it would suddenly launch an attack. At that time, the Dongzhou would be plunged into misery and suffering, and blood would flow like a river.
At that time, no one would dare to be sure how many people would be able to survive.
It was precisely because of this that the sects in Cultivation Realm of Dongzhou were so nervous. All the major sects were holed up in hiding, trying their best to accumulate as much strength as possible. They wanted to protect themselves when the devil launched an attack.
As for dealing with the Great Devil... perhaps those sects had the same plan, but the outside world had never seen them make a move.
Under such circumstances, ordinary people could only sit and wait for death. Other than that, they could not do anything else, even if they wanted to resist. They did not know how to resist. They wanted to escape. Going to other states was even more impossible.
The Prefecture Boundary had been sealed off, and not even the cultivator could pass through, let alone the ordinary citizens.
Furthermore, even if the Prefecture Boundary was not sealed off, ordinary people could not pass through.
Therefore, for ordinary people, they could only wait for death. There was no other way. Many of them had already lost all hope.
In this way, the most awkward ones would be those rogue cultivators.
Above them were the sects that were holed up. They had foundations and were very powerful. Perhaps saying the word powerful in front of the Great Devil was laughable, but at least the sects still had some ability to protect themselves.
Below was complete despair. Without any ability to resist, they could only wait for the ordinary people to die.
Only the rogue cultivators in the middle were in a dilemma.
No one would be willing to wait for their death. Besides, the rogue cultivators were much stronger than ordinary people. They had a strong desire for power and at the same time, a glimmer of hope.
However, in terms of resistance, they were too weak. Not to mention the pitiful Cultivation Level, it was even slightly stronger than the disciples of the Cultivation Level in the sect. It was pitifully weak compared to the ___. It simply couldn't be said that they had the ability to resist.
Therefore, the rogue cultivators were unwilling and helpless. They were in a dilemma and the most awkward situation.
It was because of this reason that many rogue cultivators chose to join the Celestial Devil Sect.
Perhaps some of them really only desired strength and realm. Even if the other party was a devil, as long as they could obtain great strength, they could seek refuge without any hesitation, or even be willing to serve the ___.
However, there were still some people who chose to seek refuge with the great devil because of the unwillingness in the depths of their hearts.
They were unwilling to just sit there and wait for death. They clearly had their own Cultivation Level, but they could only wait for death. Moreover, it was a calamity that no one knew when it would come.
Since both sides were going to die, they might as well join the Celestial Devil Sect. At that time, not only would they possess great power, they might even change their own destiny and the fate of the Homo Clan.
However, there were more rogue cultivators in the group. Their thoughts were different from these two kinds of people - they were unwilling to join the evil devils, but they also wanted to possess great power. They were even more unwilling to become the slaves of the Evil Demons, even if they were their disciples.
These people occupied the majority of the loose cultivators.
If it was possible, what they hoped the most was to be able to join a sect. If they would definitely die in battle in the end, they also hoped to be able to rely on the sect and die even more.
However, no sect was willing to take them in. In the past, the sect had looked down on their qualifications. Even if some people had talent, they would miss the best time to cultivate because of the lack of resources. Many people's roots were even crooked. No matter how extraordinary this person's talent was, it didn't matter. The sect would not invest resources to nurture them.
Furthermore, facing the threat of a great devil, the sect could not even nurture its own disciples, so how could it care about rogue cultivators like them?
Hence, many rogue cultivators were furious in their hearts, but they also desired to join the sect.
The news of Longevity Sect recruiting disciples had spread across the entire Dongzhou under such circumstances.
Furthermore, it was the voice of Lin Cheng, Hai Shu, and Ren Xiao.
The Dongzhou was vast and boundless to ordinary people. Even if they had to spend the rest of their lives in the Dongzhou, they would never be able to leave it. However, for Lin Cheng who was at the Great Power Stage, as well as Hai Shu and Ren Xiao who were infinitely close to the half-step Sovereign realm, it wasn't difficult for them to travel all the way to the Dongzhou.
Especially since Lin Cheng was a mighty warrior who had mastered the Space Rule. He took a step forward. He was already ten thousand miles away. Standing in the air, he looked like an emperor who was traveling around the Dongzhou. At the same time, the spiritual sense swept across and made a sound, announcing that he would be in charge of the Longevity Sect. Recruiting disciples.
Hai Shu and Ren Xiao were the same. If this was in the past... No matter what, they wouldn't dare to reveal their whereabouts, because that would attract the hunt of experts from the Myriad Sword Sect. However, this time, the two of them flew across the sky above Dongzhou without any hesitation. The spiritual sense swept across. All the rogue cultivators that they had discovered... They all heard their voices.
Longevity Sect was recruiting disciples.
Furthermore, if they could join the Longevity Sect, they might even have the chance to become the direct disciple of the mighty Lin Cheng!
This news was like a huge rock weighing thousands of kilograms, crashing into the lake with a loud bang, setting off a huge wave. It could be said that it had caused the entire Dongzhou to boil with excitement!
Countless Scattered Cultivation Level were shaken, and then they became wild with joy.
They had always been longing for an opportunity, but now, it had suddenly fallen upon their heads. That kind of huge joy was truly hard for them to hold themselves back.
When Lin Cheng and the other two returned to the Longevity Sect, countless rogue cultivators of the Dongzhou started heading towards the Longevity Sect from all directions.
The city at the foot of the Longevity Sect had become overcrowded in a very short period of time. These rogue cultivators had arrived. They first settled down here to gather information. When they saw the recruitment notice at the city gate, then, they immediately set out for the Longevity Sect.
For a moment, the entire Longevity Sect was surrounded by rogue cultivators who were heading towards the mountain gate.
It wasn't just them. At the same time, a large number of Adventurers and rogue cultivators with all kinds of resources were also heading towards the Longevity Sect.
This made Gu Yuanhua so happy that he couldn't close his mouth. Such a scene had never happened before, even at the peak of the Longevity Sect.
But soon, Gu Yuanhua couldn't laugh anymore.
Because there were too many people here.
There were countless living beings in Dongzhou. Although most of them were ordinary living beings without Cultivation Level, even if there were only one-tenth of them, it would still be a shocking number.
The Longevity Sect only had a few hundred thousand disciples when they were at their peak. How could they contain so many rogue cultivators?
However, to these rogue cultivators, the Longevity Sect was recruiting disciples. This was too attractive, even if it was just a declining sect. However, a sect was a sect. Even if there were only one or two inheritances left... It was not something that these rogue cultivators could gather with great effort.
Naturally, these people were scrambling to enter the Longevity Sect. Not only did they want to avoid the threat of the Great Devil, but more importantly, they wanted to improve their Cultivation Level and obtain the nurturing of the Longevity Sect.
Gu Yuanhua had a headache. Helpless, he could only ask Lin Cheng and the other two for help.
"Go."
Lin Cheng said without hesitation, "Don't just limit yourself to the Longevity Sect. This is a mountain range nearby. They could build houses, and the cities nearby could also accommodate rogue cultivators. The Longevity Sect might not necessarily be limited to one sect. They could set up an outer sect. Or, like the Unification Hall set up by the Unification Sect, they would at least have to leave the people behind first.
Worst case, we can tell those who are unable to enter the sect that the Longevity Sect will not protect themselves in closed doors. If there is a catastrophe, the Longevity Sect will fight back and treat them equally!"
Although these rogue cultivators looked inconspicuous and did not have a very strong combat strength, it was still better for them to stay here than to seek refuge with the Celestial Devil Sect.
Perhaps, the Longevity Sect wouldn't recruit too many disciples, but at least, they could gather these rogue cultivators near the Longevity Sect. In this way, they could at least keep them here.
Of course, as for the disciples that had to be nurtured, they had to be carefully inspected. After all, the resources were limited. It was impossible for everyone to be focussed on. However, as long as someone stayed behind, extraordinary people would always stand out.
Ren Xiao and Hai Shu agreed with Lin Cheng. There were a few cities nearby that could accommodate more than a million rogue cultivators. Furthermore, once these people stayed behind, the resources would naturally gather here.
Even if they couldn't recruit all of them as disciples, they at least had some confidence in themselves. Naturally, they would look for resources or exchange them for cultivation techniques from the Longevity Sect. Perhaps it was in exchange for other resources, but these were also beneficial to the Longevity Sect.
Of course, the most important thing right now was to nurture a few more Divine Ability Stage warriors.
With the Expert of Divine Ability Stage in charge, no matter how many rogue cultivators came, there wouldn't be any trouble. Instead, they would be able to control these rogue cultivators.
The first batch of Divine Ability Stage disciples would be selected from the inner circle disciples of Longevity Sect.0
"You have to tell them clearly that there is a risk for them to consume this pill."
Lin Cheng said, "Furthermore, even if they succeed, I'm afraid that they will have to stop at the Divine Ability Stage for the rest of their lives. If they want to become a half-step Supreme Elder or even a Supreme Elder, their chances are very slim, and they will have to make their own choice."
The purpose of cultivating the Expert of Divine Ability Stage was naturally to strengthen the Longevity Sect. However, if they didn't tell those disciples about the risks, they would find out in the future. They might even mistakenly think that their future in cultivation had been ruined. At that time, they might even harbor resentment towards their sect.
Therefore, before consuming the pill, they would clearly inform them, allowing them to make their own choices. Only then would they be able to avoid future troubles and possible hidden dangers.
