Chapter 1357 - Complex Emotions (1) (1/2)

As the 36 young geniuses and Clara climbed in a transportation vessel pulled by Little Wind, other, similar occurrences, were happening all across Earth.

The Belmont Palace shifted into motion, the remnants of the Cavositas clan, even the lesser clans made moves of their owns, including the Big Sects and outer edge academies. Although Focus Academy no longer existed, many of their former rivals were very much alive and well.

However, one Holy Land in particular stirred that would have definitely caught Dyon's attention: The Bai Clan.

The term 'Holy Land' was used quite loosely in the martial world. It simply referred to a place where the valuables of a clan including their tombs and treasures were stored. This place also held the core teachings of a clan and the will of their ancestors.

For the Elvin Kingdom, their Tombs were located in another dimension entirely. The same was true of the celestial beasts. This was also the case for the Bai…

When Dyon learned that the Bai were devil cultivators, he suddenly understood many things.

During his Focus Academy days, he was well aware that Pillar Family Heads were lower essence gatherers at best, with most of them still being within the Meridian Formation stage. The only exception to this was Patia-Neva who was actually already a celestial at the time.

As for Head Bai, Meiying's father, he was also a meridian formation expert… However, the reason was more complex than this.

Although the Bai family couldn't be said to be overtly powerful, a cultivation realm so low was definitely too pitiful for a clan the Daiyu took seriously. The truth of the matter was that Head Bai's cultivation of the conventional path really was at the mere meridian formation tier. However, his cultivation of the devil path was already within the celestial realm.

The Bai family's Holy Land was filled with curse energy not as a form of protection, but rather as a by-product of their devil qi acc.u.mulating methods.

When Dyon first met Meiying, the number one thing he noted about her were her Violet eyes. The second thing he noted about her was the strangeness of her Feng Shui Compass will.

Niche wills like Meiying's compass will were never given formal rankings, but you'd sooner find a needle in a vast ocean before you found one that was weak.

Why was it that Meiying couldn't come with Dyon? Why was it that her family placed such importance on this will? And why was it that they found this will to be so important, yet still ship off Meiying to be married to the Daiyu?

The truth was that Meiying's Feng Shui Compass will was the key to acc.u.mulating the devil qi that the Bai family needed to properly cultivate their core family teachings… By making use of her comprehension of the nature of the heavens, Meiying was able to find and lay formation that allowed for the acc.u.mulation of energy where they might otherwise not appear.
