Chapter 141: Forging the Spirit Sword

“Sure.”
Gu Xiu slowly retreated and released Su Yang’s arrangement.
This kind of post released by the sect naturally took a top spot on the sect’s forum.
It quickly caught the attention of disciples from the Daxia Celestial Sect.
“500 hours of free cultivation time for establishing a courtyard? Only 90% sect contribution for the Golden Core-level Spiritual Fluid Pool?”
“The treatment is too good.”
Countless disciples who saw this were itching to immediately establish a courtyard. However, after reading a bit further, they realized that establishing a courtyard came with conditions. It wasn’t as simple as they thought.
They couldn’t create it themselves, but they could encourage others who met the conditions to create one. After all, as long as someone established a courtyard, they could join and enjoy the benefits and resources.
Zhang Hu, who was busy with his own matters, quickly received the message.
After a brief examination, he understood the immense benefits involved. Thinking it over, he began to contact Hong Tian.
Establishing a courtyard was a must, and their group could certainly create the strongest courtyard in the Daxia Celestial Sect. When it came to establishing the strongest courtyard, the crucial question was who would be the creator. Naturally, it had to be the strongest among them.
Hong Tian’s Courtyard.
At this moment, he had just finished all preparations and was planning to break through to the Nascent Soul stage in the sect’s secret chamber. He hadn’t even seen the sect’s announcement, but Zhang Hu had already explained the situation to him.
After a brief understanding, Hong Tian didn’t hesitate at all. The courtyard must be established, as it would bring them more resources in the future.
“Zhang Junior Brother, inquire for me who is willing to create a courtyard with me. I will provide the required sect contributions,” he said.
“No problem,” Zhang Hu replied.
Zhang Hu directly posted this information in the Golden Core-level group chat, and within moments, hundreds of people were willing to join.
This way, they didn’t have to worry much about the matter.
Soon enough, the first courtyard in the Daxia Celestial Sect was successfully established.
Within the internal network of the sect, on the courtyard leaderboard, there
was only one courtyard that appeared like a king, occupying the first position:
“Tian Yuan.”
Although there was currently only one courtyard, upon closer examination, it was clear that out of a hundred thousand disciples, only one courtyard had been born. This meant that the creator of this courtyard was ahead of a hundred thousand others!
Tian Yuan was instantly flooded with applications from disciples who wanted to join.
Hong Tian’s account on the internal network also exploded with 99+ messages. He promptly disabled the function to accept new courtyard applications and appointed Zhang Hu as the deputy courtyard master.
“Zhang Junior Brother, I’ll leave the matter of recruiting members for the courtyard to you. How does that sound?” Hong Tian said as he planned to break through to the Nascent Soul stage in seclusion.
With the courtyard to manage and the potential for various matters in the future, which he didn’t like and believed would disrupt his cultivation, he needed someone to assist in handling these issues. Zhang Hu seemed like a good choice to him.
“Senior Brother, rest assured. I’ll take care of this matter,” Zhang Hu readily agreed.
After Hong Tian’s instructions, he went to the secret chamber to break through.
Unfortunately, the secret chamber breakthrough did not receive any support.
Zhang Hu, on the other hand, started recruiting people.
His targets were those with potential, those whose strength was in the upper ranks of the Golden Core stage. As for those in the early Golden Core stage without special abilities, they were not within his consideration.
A Golden Core-level courtyard could accommodate a thousand people, but Zhang Hu initially planned to recruit five hundred. The remaining five hundred spots would be filled as needed.
Since they aimed to create the strongest courtyard, they had to be selective.
Zhang Hu first inquired with Hui Kong, who had similar strength to him.
Hui Kong on the internal network: “Can I leave after joining? I want to enjoy the courtyard’s support, but later I plan to create my own Buddhist courtyard.”
Zhang Hu was taken aback by this straightforward question. “Naturally, that’s fine. However, after joining, everyone needs to contribute 1 sect point daily, which will be stored in the courtyard as resources. The usage of these resources will be transparent and public.”
Zhang Hu had come up with this condition himself. The courtyard would contribute a thousand sect points every month, and it couldn’t be solely shouldered by the creator. Those who joined the courtyard to enjoy its benefits had to pay a price. Otherwise, one person creating the courtyard and bearing all the expenses while the others enjoyed the benefits wouldn’t be fair.
At the moment, Zhang Hu had set two conditions for joining: daily contribution of 1 sect point and willingness to follow orders. Any unreasonable situations or opportunities that could help with their development in the future could lead to adjustments.
Hui Kong: “Understood. In that case, this humble monk is willing to join.”
After sorting things out with Hui Kong, Zhang Hu continued to recruit people.
He quickly filled the five hundred slots.
After recruiting, Zhang Hu explained everything and began his own cultivation.
With this, over three hundred Golden Core disciples who had returned from the Red Earth Star had all been recruited into Tian Yuan by Zhang Hu. These individuals were bound to increase in strength, and they were also the kind who dared to fight when necessary—every one of them was a talent Zhang Hu couldn’t afford to miss.
Aside from Tian Yuan’s emergence, no other courtyards were established.
This matter gradually settled down.
Everyone settled into a quiet cultivation environment, patiently awaiting the next opportunity to go to the Red Earth Star.
One month passed quietly.
Su Yang’s rank had increased somewhat, and most importantly, he had accumulated over 2000 points of World Source Energy.
“Sword Intent (Nascent Transformation Initial Stage): Lv154
(120,000/6,400,000)” Void Conversion: 60 points/l day
World Source Energy: 2040
This was his current level, and even though he could wield fifty thousand swords in an hour, his level had only increased by three stages in just over a month..
