Chapter 882: Medial Clan (1/2)
The turtle leaped out and landed on Feiyun’s back then smiled: “This is a good ability, the wings feel as if they’re made from phoenix feathers.”
“Boom!” The wings’ flames intensified and burned the turtle. It no longer acted cool and jumped back down, holding onto Feiyun’s sleeve.
Divine Phoenix Wings.
This was Feiyun’s earned ability after the second rebirth, allowing him to fly while under the meteoric stone’s effect.
After reaching the right cultivation realm, he could use these wings to fly through chaotic space as well. No place would be out of his reach.
It didn’t take long before he returned to the main branch.
While he was still dozens of miles away, he recalled his wings and used his Swift Samsara, pretending to be out of breath.
“3,645th place.” The hunchbacked old man was waiting outside and gave Feiyun a number.
‘This many people got done?’ Feiyun was surprised at this ranking.
Nonetheless, there were more than seven thousand and only this many have returned. It was getting late so not many more would make it.
Half has been eliminated after the first day.
He then noticed ten heavenly stallions waiting outside, adorned in full armor. Looks like a big shot to have these mounts.
“An outsider is here?” Feiyun asked.
The old man’s eyes looked cold and sharp. He quickly hid this and answered: “A descendant of a medial clan.”
“What are they doing here?” Feiyun asked.
A medial clan meant that they have been around since the Medial Ages.
The Medial Ages was around 1,600,000 to 14,000,000 years ago. The most famous event during this timeline was a period of chaos dubbed Medial Chaotic Period.
It was a golden age for humans due to the appearance of numerous talents and saints. These beings were legends in the scrolls. Alas, they have been forgotten in the river of time.
A few things still remained from this period - these medial clans. After the fierce competition and development of the chaotic period, numerous clans and sects took rise.
Then at the end of the Medial Ages came the central dynasties. Humans finally stopped large-scale internal fighting. This marked the end of the Medial Ages.
Thus, the clans that were still around from that period were immensely powerful with frightening resources. Ancient clans such as the Meng couldn’t come close to them.
“These clans are extremely arrogant and think they have the bloodline of the sages. They look down on half-demons.” The old man snorted.
“They dare to come here looking for trouble?” Feiyun narrowed his eyes.
“They look down on us but we must remain cordial with them. For example, this main branch here, we’re renting it from the Gu. Otherwise, we wouldn’t have a place in Crimson Leaf.” The old man looked a bit helpless.
“We can’t buy our own land? Why do we need to give them face?”
“The land here belongs to the Territory Lord, no one can buy it.”
