But what the major sects did not expect was that Si Lingle was actually charging a fee.
Everyone: "..."
The fee wasn’t high, just one hundred low-grade spirit stones per person.
Some people from the sects, despite grumbling in their hearts, still paid the fee.
Traveling all this way to the Hundred Battle Sect was just to see this floating island.
There’s no way they would turn around and leave now.
Si Lingle personally took these people to tour the floating island.
During the tour, two major sects had restless thoughts in their minds, pondering that if they conquered the Hundred Battle Sect, the floating island would belong to them.
However, at this moment, Si Lingle suddenly smiled and said, "This floating island of mine has powerful magic treasures, capable of slaying a hundred Tribulation Crossing cultivators with no problem."
Upon hearing this, the two who had just entertained the thought felt their hearts tighten.
Although they were unsure if Si Lingle was exaggerating, the ability to eliminate Tribulation Crossing cultivators should be true.
Conquering the Hundred Battle Sect wouldn’t be easy.
After the tour, the sect masters of the Taixu Sect and the Sword Shadow Alliance, among others, inquired if Si Lingle could help their sects build floating islands too.
Si Lingle stated that the materials to construct floating islands were no longer available. fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓
Si Lingle gave them a list, saying if they could find these materials, she could help them build one in the future.
Because of the floating island, the Hundred Battle Sect became well-known throughout the Jiuli Realm.
Many families wanted to send their disciples to join the Hundred Battle Sect.
However, the Hundred Battle Sect was not currently accepting new disciples.
Below the Hundred Battle Sect, in Hundred Battle City, the number of visiting cultivators was increasing.
Some major families bought properties and opened businesses in Hundred Battle City.
Time flew by, and another decade or so passed.
Xiangyu and Jingyuan, who had entered the Nascent Soul Secret Realm, successfully emerged alive, but upon returning to their sect, they found it had changed dramatically.
What was once a ramshackle main hall had become resplendently luxurious.
Moreover, dozens of peaks had been added, and the sect now boasted over ten thousand disciples.
What surprised them the most was that they now had another floating island.
How could a trip to the Secret Realm result in such drastic changes, making their sect seem unfamiliar?
The two waited for a while in the main peak’s great hall before Si Lingle arrived.
"It’s good that you’ve returned safely," said Si Lingle.
"Sect Master, I discovered this in the Secret Realm," Xiangyu True Monarch said, producing a jade scroll and a map.
Si Lingle’s fingers moved slightly, and the two items fell into her hands.
After examining them, Si Lingle said, "An Immortal Realm Secret Realm. If this Secret Realm is genuine, it will provide our sect’s cultivators with another place to train and seize opportunities."
"Sect Master, you must not go alone. This Immortal Realm Secret Realm is fraught with danger and death," Jingyuan True Monarch said. "The sect cannot afford to lose you."
Although the sect’s highest cultivation now isn’t the Sect Master but the Grand Elder of the Xuanmu Sect, Wenzhe Daojun (Mid Tribulation Crossing), who voluntarily submitted, it was still due to the Sect Master.
If something were to happen to the Sect Master, the Hundred Battle Sect would surely be thrown into chaos.
At that time, it would splinter and be devoured by other sects, and the disciples’ lives would likely be difficult.
"If the Immortal Realm Secret Realm is real, our sect cannot monopolize it. Cooperation with major sects is necessary," said Si Lingle. "Bringing them along means the sect must receive some benefits."
The two had also heard that the Sect Master charged other sects for the tour of the floating island.
It brought the sect a small profit.
Because of Si Lingle’s actions, many disciples in the sect are now inspired to be innovative in earning spirit stones.
Si Lingle chatted with the two for a while, and then they left to enter seclusion.
Si Lingle then took out the Communication Jade and initiated a video group chat.
This Communication Jade was crafted by Si Lingle with a concept similar to telephone communication.
However, it combined the methods of the Cultivation World with technology.
Now, humans, demons, and monsters in the Jiuli Realm are all using Communication Jades, which have earned the Hundred Battle Sect over a billion spirit stones.
Of course, several major sects collaborating with the Hundred Battle Sect also made significant profits.
The first to join the video group chat was the Sect Master of the Taixu Sect.
"Is it time to collaborate again?" the Taixu Sect Master said, stroking his short beard.
"Let’s wait for the others to arrive before discussing further."
After a while, the sect masters of several other major sects joined the chat.
Once everyone was present, Si Lingle got straight to the point, "Our sect’s disciples discovered a jade scroll recording an Immortal Realm Secret Realm and a map within the Secret Realm. For some unknown reason, this Secret Realm has landed within the Jiuli Realm."
