Chapter 484: North Qiong Sect

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

As the Grand Elder started filling Chen Fan in on what had happened in the past, a complete story finally started to surface before Chen Fan. The Witch Sects had many branches but the Dark Witch Sect had always been the leading branch. Many powerful overlords hailed from the Dark Witch Sect and remained unchallenged.

Three hundred years ago, the Great Magus of the Dark Witch Sect became a dominant force in China. Even if China was as powerful of a nation as it was now, it would have difficulties keeping the Great Magus in check.

The Great Magus sought medicine from the Medicine G.o.d Valley Sect, and in return, he had helped the Medicine G.o.d Valley Sect cast a Dharma Array over the valley and left a Dharma Treasure as grat.i.tude.

“That Dharma Treasure was one of the seven Magus Artifacts that had pa.s.sed down generations in the Dark Witch Sect. It was created by an Earth Level Deity a thousand years ago. The Dark Witch Sect had abided by the Grand Magus’s oath and never attempted to claim it personally. However, they told the other witch sects that they would offer handsome rewards to those who could bring the Dharma Treasure back from the Medicine G.o.d Valley Sect. The Ghost Witch Sect was one of the sects that had taken up the challenge.”

Grand Elder heaved a sigh and said.

“Why don’t you return the artifact to the Dark Witch Sect if they needed it so bad? Didn’t you say that there is a reward?” Chen Fan asked.

“You are right, Immortal Master. But that Magus Artifact is truly extraordinary. It is a Tripod Cauldron called “Earth Magus Tripod Cauldron.” Rumor had it that it was an instrument for elixir brewing used by an earth level Magus. It had been put to good use in our sect so none of the sect leaders had thought of giving it away.

Grand Elder cracked a smile in embarra.s.sment.

“Earth Magus Tripod Cauldron?”

Chen Fan narrowed his eyes as his interest was piqued.

He wagered that the so-called Earth Magus was the Witch Sect equivalent of Earth Level Deity who had reached Connate Spirit level. A Dharma Treasure from such a mighty cultivator would be unG.o.dly powerful. No wonder the Medicine G.o.d Valley Sect would not let it go.

“What a shame that the Earth Magus Tripod Cauldron was taken away by the Ghost Witch Sect, otherwise, I would have offered it to you. Such a miraculous artifact would only realize its full potential in the hands of an Immortal Master.”

Grand Elder exclaimed.

The Elixir Tripod Cauldron was useless in ordinary people’s hands since to use it would require a tremendous amount of energy.

However, it would be extremely useful when it was used by Chen Fan. King of Elixirs wanted to give it to Chen Fan, but Chen Fan left the valley to fight Lei Qianjue in a hurry, so the King of Elixirs didn’t get the time to do so.

“No worries, I will go to the Ghost Witch Sect and get it back.”

Chen Fan waved a hand and said proudly.

He might not even be able to use the Connate Dharma Artifact, such as the Elixir Tripod Cauldron when he was only at the Ethereal Enlightenment level. However, the Elixir Tripod Cauldron would be a perfect little tool for him now since he had reached the Divine Sea level.

Afterward, the Grand Elder invited Chen Fan into the valley to ask a few questions about Elixir Brewing.

Chen Fan agreed readily.

He had planned to groom the Medicine G.o.d Valley Sect into one of his own personal Elixir Brewing teams. Therefore he had taught them a great number of Elixir Brewing techniques two years ago. That brought the matter of forming a sect into Chen Fan’s mind, so he asked the Medicine G.o.d Valley Sect if they were interested in joining.

“Immortal Master, you wish to form a sect?”

Grand Elder and Fifth Elder were both elated by the revelation.

Medicine G.o.d Valley Sect was a renowned sect that was over a few hundred years old. However, their elixir brewing skills still paled in comparison with that of Chen Fan. The Medicine G.o.d Valley Sect members were shocked by the breadth and depth of Chen Fan’s knowledge in Elixir Brewing.

“We, the Medicine G.o.d Valley Sect, will gladly join you, Immortal Master. What will be the name of your sect?”

The Grand Elder asked and bowed deeply.

The Medicine G.o.d Valley Sect had just lost their Sect Master and was embattled by old and new enemies. If they could join Chen Fan’s sect, no one would ever dare to mess with them while they were under the protection of the Living legend.

“I was in the True Martial Celestial Sect, so I could name it that. But the True Martial Celestial Sect is too far away from here, and you guys have not yet reached the requirements to join the True Martial Celestial Sect, so..” Chen Fan pondered a while, then said: “I think I will call it North Qiong.”

“North Qiong Sect?”

Everyone looked at each other in confusion.

A light flashed in Yukis.h.i.+ro Sa’s eyes as the name reminded her of the painting of the Zi Qiong G.o.ddess that she saw in the Green Dragon Grand Array.

“Yes, the North Qiong Sect. I am the Sect Leader, and there are two other disciples. One is called A’Xiu, she should have reached Transcendent State now. You might have heard of the other Disciple: Hua Yunfeng. He has just reached Immortal State a few days back. The Medicine G.o.d Valley Sect could be an off-shot chapter of the North Qiong Sect that specializes in Elixir Brewing. Jinyi will be the chapter’s leader while you guys will be her a.s.sistants and chief alchemists.”

Chen Fan went on to set the sect rules.

He used to run the True Martial Celestial Sect that had branches across the universe, so he was familiar with the organizational structures of an effective sect.

“Within the sect, there will be five levels. The Sect Master, Head Disciples, Elders, Chapter Heads, Regular Disciples, and Outer sect disciples. ”

Chen Fan didn’t want to make the organizational structure too complicated since he didn’t mean to stay on earth for too long.

“What? Hua Yunfeng is your disciple, and he has already reached Immortal State?”

Members of the Medicine G.o.d Valley Sect were shocked beyond belief.

Hua Yunfeng of Zhong Hai was a renowned Grandmaster who had presided over Zhong Hai for decades. He had been the leader of the formidable Green Gang, yet, even he had become Chen Fan’s disciple. How powerful exactly was Chen Fan?

The thought had banished the last shred of resentment the alchemists had toward Chen Fan for taking away their former ident.i.ty and annexing their sect.

Under the Grand Elder’s lead, they all knelt before Chen Fan and announced in unison.
