Eternal Reverence-Chapter 915: Divine Leaf Dew

Chapter 915: Divine Leaf Dew

Translator: jinzeffect

After establishing the Sword Sect, the recruitment for disciples started.

It might be called Sword Sect, but the Sword Sect didn’t restrict disciples to just swordsmen.

Be it swordsmen or other types of martial artists, the Sword Sect would accept them.

Of course, the prerequisite was to have a certain level of talent and perception. For this, Li Fuchen constructed a Sword Tower and Martial Tower. Those that passed the 1st floor of the Sword Tower or Martial Tower would be able to become an outer sect disciple of the Sword Sect. Those who passed the 2nd floor would be able to become inner sect disciples.

After one year, the Sword Sect was gradually getting on track. There were 200,000 outer sect disciples and 30,000 inner sect disciples. As for direct line disciples, they weren’t recruited directly, therefore, there were only Wu Zhuo and Wu Xi.

As for odd-job disciples, there were plenty and the number exceeded 1 million.

In the future, only a rare few odd-job disciples would be able to become official disciples. Most of them would be working in the odd-job hall after reaching a certain age and cultivation. They would be managing the huge number of odd-job disciples.

Seeing that the sect was on the right track, Li Fuchen left the Deep Blue Plane and traveled towards the Divine Leaf City.

…

Divine Leaf City, Crosswise River Star Domain’s most peculiar universe city.

This universe city was constructed on a piece of leaf.

Legends foretold that this leaf was the World Tree’s leaf. This leaf had been floating around for countless years, until the Divine Leaf City Lord constructed the Divine Leaf City on it.

Back then, a heaven lord war actually took place because of this World Tree’s leaf. By using the advantage of location and his own formidable strength, the Divine Leaf City Lord managed to repel the enemy.

On the teleportation star, Li Fuchen saw the Divine Leaf City.

“The universe is so big and there are really all sorts of mystical things.” Li Fuchen was truly stunned.

In his vision, there was an unimaginably gigantic green leaf floating in the universe. On the lear, there was a universe city.

“If the leaf is already so big, wouldn’t the World Tree be larger than a plane?”

Calming his emotions, Li Fuchen flew towards Divine Leaf City.

…

The Divine Leaf City’s Swordsmen Guild was very stylish and grand. The gate was a large sword-like structure and there were two swords dao saints guarding by the sides.

Soon enough, the Deep Blue Sword Saint Lord walked out.

“Sword Saint Lord, this way.” The Deep Blue Sword Saint Lord welcomed with a smile.

Li Fuchen walked over and asked, “How do I join the Divine Leaf City’s Swordsmen Guild?”

Be it the Deep Blue Plane’s Swordsmen Guild or the Divine Leaf City’s Swordsmen Guild, their nature was the same. There wasn’t any strict hierarchy and everyone had the same mentality to work together and help each other.

“In order to join the Divine Leaf City’s Swordsmen Guild, there are three conditions. Firstly, one must be a sword dao saint. Secondly, an oath must be taken. Thirdly, every 10,000 years, one guild mission must be completed.”

One could say that it wasn’t difficult to join the Swordsmen Guild. But after joining, there would be some restrictions, like to never betray the guild unless their life was in danger, to help the guild whenever possible, to fight against the enemy when the guild was in war. In short, if any of the conditions were violated, one wouldn’t just receive the backlash from the oath, they would also be expelled from the guild. Serious cases might also be judged by trial in the guild.

There were naturally plenty of benefits for joining the guild, otherwise, it wouldn’t attract most of the sword dao saints to join.

When entering the Swordsmen Guild, Li Fuchen realized that the two sword dao saints who stood guard were actually not humans.

The Deep Blue Sword Saint Lord explained, “Humans don’t have the exclusive rights to cultivate martial arts and cultivation techniques. There are many races who can cultivate martial arts and cultivation techniques, but of course, humans are the best at it.”

After swearing the oath inside the Swordsmen Guild, Li Fuchen was officially a member of the guild now.

There might not be any strict hierarchy, but there were differences in grades. The higher the grade, the higher the authority.

According to strength and contributions, there were seven grades. Low-class, mid-class, high-class, peak-class, morning star-class, radiant moon-class, and glorious sun-class. Each class had three levels, making it a total of 18 tiers.

Generally, morning star-class members were sword dao saint lords. The Deep Blue Sword Saint Lord was a 1st-level morning star-class swordsman.

The radiant moon-class and glorious sun-class were corresponding to heaven lords. But in the Divine Leaf City’s Swordsmen Guild, there were currently no glorious sun-class members. Even the guildmaster was only a 3rd-level radiant moon-class swordsman.

Of course, strength itself wasn’t enough, contributions were needed too.

Li Fuchen didn’t have any contribution for now, therefore, he wasn’t even a low-class member, he was just a reserve member.

For a reserve member to promote into a low-class member, 1000 guild points were required. Mid-class members would need 10,000 guild points. High-class members would need 100,000 guild points, peak-class would need 1 million guild points, morning star-class would need 10 million guild points, while radiant moon-class would need 100 million guild points.

According to what the Deep Blue Sword Saint Lord said, the guild points required for promotion wasn’t a lot. The most crucial factor was still the strength requirement. Without strength, even if a member could earn 100 million guild points, it was still impossible to promote.

“Looks like I have to earn 1000 guild points first.”

Reserve members of the Swordsmen Guild didn’t have any authority and could only be considered a member.

The Deep Blue Sword Saint Lord said, “In the Divine Leaf City, the best method to earn guild points for reserve members is to harvest the Divine Leaf Dew.”

“What is Divine Leaf Dew?” Li Fuchen asked.

The Deep Blue Sword Saint Lord smiled and replied, “The Divine Leaf Dew is the dew produced from the World Tree’s leaf that is below the Divine Leaf City. The dew is condensed by the universe’s essence and is mixed with a trace of the World Tree’s power. It has great benefits for a saint’s cultivation. At the same time, it can also nurture all sorts of valuable herbs and spirit trees. If you can harvest a bottle of Divine Leaf Dew, you can exchange it for 100 guild points.”

“Why would the Divine Leaf City Lord agree to let everyone harvest the Divine Leaf Dew?” Li Fuchen was rather curious.

The World Tree’s leaf, which was also the Divine Leaf, had a huge surface area and could definitely produce tons of dew. But there were plenty of people living in Divine Leaf City too. If everyone harvested on a daily basis, the amount of Divine Leaf Dew harvested would be astonishing.

The Deep Blue Sword Saint Lord explained, “The Divine Leaf Dew will be reproduced. No matter how much is harvested, after a period of time, it will be condensed again. It is just like the leaves in nature. Every morning, dewdrops will be condensed. Even if the dewdrops are harvested, it will not affect the leaves and it will reappear on the next morning. Furthermore, even if you don’t harvest them, they will slowly dissipate after a period of time. It will actually be a waste.”

“Of course, the Divine Leaf City Lord wouldn’t possibly open up the entire Divine Leaf for anyone to harvest as they please. Currently, there are only 100 harvesting areas and they are all at the edges of the Divine Leaf. The dew at the Divine Leaf’s main and secondary veins will all be directed to the Divine Leaf City Lord’s residence with the array.”

“Also, only saints can stand on the Divine Leaf. Anyone below the saints will not be able to withstand the prowess from the Divine Leaf and would be instantly destroyed.”

“I see.” Li Fuchen nodded.

The Divine Leaf was too huge and not even the Divine Leaf City could harvest all the dew. He would rather release it to others so that it would entice people to reside in the Divine Leaf City.

In order to reach the harvesting areas, everyone had to use the teleportation arrays. Each teleportation would cost 10 peak-grade spirit stones. It might not seem much, but there were an immense number of saints in the Divine Leaf City. Many of the saints would go for multiple harvests in a year. With accumulation, it would give the Divine Leaf City Lord an astonishing amount of peak-grade spirit stones.

“Sword Saint Lord, I shall not go over.” The Deep Blue Sword Saint Lord said when they were close to a harvesting area’s teleportation array.

“Alright, I can go alone.” Li Fuchen handed over 10 peak-grade spirit stones and stepped onto the teleportation array.

At this moment, there were already 98 saints of various races on the teleportation array. The teleportation would only start after a group of 100 individuals.

Shortly after, two more other race saints arrived.

Buzz!

There was a burst of radiance that shot outside of the Divine Leaf City.

“This is the Divine Leaf?” When the radiance landed, Li Fuchen and the other saints appeared.

This place was a man-made plaza and there were several saints meditating while seated with crossed legs.

Outside the plaza was a vast patch of green. Li Fuchen could see a layer of barrier that was emitting a faint light.

Walking out of the plaza, he arrived at the surface of the Divine Leaf.

Originally, Li Fuchen thought that the surface of the Divine Leaf should be very rough. After all, it was so big. But after seeing it himself, the surface of the Divine Leaf was smooth and slippery. It was totally unable to see any holes.

“Such a powerful prowess.”

As soon as Li Fuchen stepped on the surface of the Divine Leaf, he felt his body getting heavy. There was a boundless pressure that came from the Divine Leaf.

It was just as the Deep Blue Saint Lord said. If anyone below saints dared to come here, they would be instantly destroyed.

Li Fuchen noticed there were a few weaker other race saints that had strenuous expressions, as though they were carrying a mountain.

Without any interactions, after arriving at the harvesting area, everyone immediately split up to search for the Divine Leaf Dew.

Soon enough, Li Fuchen harvested his first portion of Divine Leaf Dew.

The Divine Leaf Dew looked like a dew with colorful radiance. It contained shocking vitality and also extremely pure energy.

“There is one portion here, one over there too.”

The Divine Leaf’s pressure was extremely strong, a saint’s spiritual awareness wouldn’t be able to extend far in this place. If it was extended too far, it would be shattered. But it was different for Li Fuchen, his spiritual awareness was at the level of a heaven lord, allowing him to reach further with his spiritual awareness. As such, in just half a day, Li Fuchen was able to harvest hundreds of bottles of Divine Leaf Dew.

If anyone else knew of this, they would be dumbfounded.

In normal situations, a saint would be considered extremely lucky to harvest one bottle of Divine Leaf Dew in a week. After all, they could only move very slowly on the Divine Leaf and their spiritual awareness couldn’t extend far enough, making their eyes more useful.

One day later, Li Fuchen harvested over 1000 bottles of Divine Leaf Dew.

One week later, Li Fuchen harvested 10,000 bottles of Divine Leaf Dew.

10,000 bottles of Divine Leaf Dew was considered 1 square of Divine Leaf Dew.

If 10,000 bottles of Divine Leaf Dew were exchanged into guild points, it would be 1 million guild points. It was enough for Li Fuchen to be promoted to a peak-class member

It was a pity that the Swordsmen Guild stated that only 10,000 guild points could be exchanged using Divine Leaf Dew. The extra could only be sold to the Swordsmen Guild and couldn’t be exchanged for more guild points.

“It is almost time to return and rest.”

After staying on the surface of the Divine Leaf for one week, Li Fuchen felt it was rather strenuous.

A regular saint could only stay on the surface of the Divine Leaf for about two hours. Formidable saints would feel uncomfortable after staying for a few hours and they would have to immediately return to the man-made plaza to meditate.

To be able to harvest one bottle of Divine Leaf Dew in one week was considered extremely lucky. Some of the weaker saints that had bad luck wouldn’t be able to harvest one bottle of Divine Leaf Dew in a month.

Therefore, in order to earn the fee of 10 peak-grade spirit stones for the teleportation, some saints would stay here for years or even dozens of years.

In the outside world, 10 bottles of Divine Leaf Dew would be equivalent to 1 peak-grade spirit stone.

“This brother, can you sell me some Divine Leaf Dew?” When Li Fuchen arrived at the man-made plaza, a sword dao saint came over to ask.

“You are from the Swordsmen Guild?” Li Fuchen asked.

“That’s right. I came here in order to earn guild points. But I didn’t know it would be so difficult to harvest Divine Leaf Dew. For over three months, I only harvested seven bottles. I still need three bottles to complete the mission.”

“Consider these three bottles as a gift.” Li Fuchen tossed over three bottles of Divine Leaf Dew.

The earning of guild points didn’t need the member to harvest the Divine Leaf Dew personally, they could be purchased too. Three bottles of Divine Leaf Dew meant nothing to Li Fuchen and he didn’t mind giving it to the other party.

“Many thanks.” The other party was very grateful.
