Chapter 571: Chapter 273: Power Advancement, Blood God Book_3
But as for these over six million Fortune Points, Jiang Feng wasn’t in a hurry to spend them on a Foundation Establishment Technique. Now that the Yang Technique had reached Great Perfection, if he wanted to raise his strength, he needed the boost of an entirely new Cultivation Technique. Jiang Feng planned to join the Cyan Cloud Sect first, find a suitable technique, and then use up his Fortune Points.
Now that he was in Qingshui City, he wanted to gather all kinds of information about the Cyan Cloud Sect, and also get a deeper understanding of the Mad Blade Martial Arts Hall’s strength and status in the Blood Domain, as well as their territory and boundaries.
He spent the first two days in an inn, eavesdropping on conversations.
He didn’t gain much.
But within these two days, he heard more than once about the "Blood God Book"—a book rather like a ranking list.
In the end, he spent two hundred Spirit Stones and had the inn’s busboy buy him the latest edition of the Blood God Book.
Jiang Feng felt the pain in his heart.
Two hundred Spirit Stones was no small number. Even Li Yang had only saved up a little over two thousand Spirit Stones in his entire life. Even though the Blood Domain was flooded with Spirit Stone Veins, two hundred Spirit Stones was still a normal cultivator’s expenses for two or three months.
A single Blood God Book actually cost him two hundred Spirit Stones.
Truly beyond his expectations.
The busboy brought him the book, and Jiang Feng hid in his room, reading for two days and nights straight.
The Blood God Book wasn’t thick.
But it was packed with content.
He thought with a sweep of his Spiritual Sense, he could memorize all the contents, but soon Jiang Feng realized the Blood God Book seemed to have its own rules. Unlike ordinary books, you couldn’t just sweep your Spiritual Sense over it and read everything as easily as you would with your eyes.
He carefully flipped through it.
The Blood God Book was like an encyclopedia for the Blood Domain.
It included the rankings of all the major Sects and Cultivation Clans, as well as their geographical locations, sizes of territory, and other pertinent data, plus rankings for certain heroic individuals.
Among them, the Cyan Cloud Sect was ranked tenth in the Blood God Book.
The number one sect in the Blood Domain was called Divine Sect!
That’s right, Divine Sect.
The name was correct, and besides those two words, there were also portraits of the Three-Eyed Divine General and the Six-armed Divine Emperor, though there wasn’t much more explanation about Divine Sect itself.
Just a single short line.
"Divine Sect is the number one sect under the heavens; every inch of its land hides boundless opportunities."
Jiang Feng’s mind was reeling a little.
The number one major sect in the Blood Domain is Divine Sect.
Then what’s going on with the Divine Sect in Central Earth? Is that an imposter? But if it’s an imposter, how could the number one major sect in the Blood Domain tolerate someone else using its name? But if it’s just a branch of their own sect, how could they just ignore it, letting other forces occupy and humiliate them?
Where did the Lin Family Cultivators and the Mad Blade Martial Arts Hall get their guts from?
"This is really bizarre. If I get the chance, I must look into what’s really going on here."
Jiang Feng just couldn’t figure it out. He somewhat regretted not bringing Xiao Qing along. The Cyan Snake Demon clan claimed to be Divine Sect’s Spirit Pets—surely they’d know many secrets outsiders couldn’t imagine.
Maybe the reason Little Cyan Snake had him travel down the Nether King River all the way here, smoothly making it to Divine Sect, had its own special meaning or purpose.
Jiang Feng’s mind was a mess, so he told himself not to get carried away with wild guesses.
"Mad Blade Martial Arts Hall... a minor power in the Northern Blood Domain."
"So Mad Blade Martial Arts Hall is in the Northern Territory of the Blood Domain, and the whole Northern Territory belongs to the Cyan Cloud Sect. Mad Blade Martial Arts Hall only survives under the Cyan Cloud Sect’s protection."
"If I become a disciple of the Cyan Cloud Sect, won’t I be able to give orders to the Saintess and make her bow before me?"
"Hehehe, even if I can’t manage that, at least the people of Mad Blade Martial Arts Hall wouldn’t dare lay a finger on me!"
"Coming to the Blood Domain was definitely the right call."
"But unless I have to, I’d better not expose my real identity. If the Cyan Cloud Sect has people from the Martial Arts Hall, and they try something behind my back, that would not be good."
"No matter what, joining the Cyan Cloud Sect comes first! At the very least, it’s one of the ten great sects in the Blood Domain—if I become a disciple of the Cyan Cloud Sect, there shouldn’t be many who’d dare trouble me here!"
"There’s a spot for recruiting disciples of the Cyan Cloud Sect right here in Qingshui City."
"Every November... and that’s right about now."
From the Blood God Book, Jiang Feng learned a lot. Not only did he get a sense of the strength and rank of Mad Blade Martial Arts Hall in the Blood Domain, but also that the Martial Arts Hall survived only because it was within territory controlled by the Cyan Cloud Sect.
There wasn’t much written in the Blood God Book about Mad Blade Martial Arts Hall.
Just a single line: a minor power in the Northern Territory.
Generally, if a force, perhaps a person, or even an item, only had a single line of introduction in the Blood God Book, there were only two possibilities.
It’s either way too powerful.
Or way too puny.
Obviously, Mad Blade Martial Arts Hall belonged to the latter.
Yet it was this kind of bottom-tier power that had forced Jiang Feng to flee all the way from Central Earth to here. To escape the Mad Blade Martial Arts Hall’s pursuit, he even had to hide in the Cyan Cloud Sect for refuge.
Thinking about it, Jiang Feng felt that the truly laughable and pitiful one... was himself.
