Chapter 1612 The Sect is getting bigger
*Broommmmm...*
Roan and Luan looked ahead and could see the raging continental barrier that burrowed into the ground and pierced the skies. Several months had passed since the incident in Tinlin Forest. With that, Destiny Avoidance Mode only had a year and four months remaining.
The reason Roan took this long to arrive at the continental barrier between Aefer and Hiwer was basically the same one as when he arrived. The distance between cities was just too big, and sometimes teleport formations would not bring one forward or were too expensive to be worth it. In any case, the twins weren't disappointed with their travel speed.
Fluki once again came out and looked at the continental barrier in front of them. "You guys are definitely in a hurry, huh? Another continental barrier already. The continent behind this one should be Hiwer, right?"
Luan nodded in response. "That's the one." After traveling through the continent, Luan had now turned fourteen. He looked a lot more mature and stronger. During all these travels, he had increased his cultivation once again, now being in the Late Stage of the Nascent Soul Realm.
Rean, who came out of the Dimensional Realm to take a look, couldn't help but sigh. "After Hiwer, there's Lebgram Continent. After that, we'll finally be at Jhiod."
Roan nodded in response. "We're getting close. That's our only clue to finding the demon beast continents at the center of the Realm of Gods."
Kentucky also mentioned, "That's also where we can find more about the Minokawa we heard about."
Fluki didn't know anything about all of that, nor did he care. "Well, shall we go?"
The twins nodded before Rean and Kentucky returned to the Dimensional Realm. After that, Fluki swallowed Roan and Luan before diving into the Dimensional Barrier. Obviously, the barrier wasn't a problem for Fluki, who traversed through it quite quickly. "Here you go. Now, let me go back and cultivate." After that, he entered Luan's forehead once again.
Hiwer was a continent without a single dominant power. That's because both demon beasts and humanoid races held similar positions here when it came to strength. With that said, both sides had formed an agreement to protect their continent and kept it like that for countless years.
Fortunately, that meant it had many more cities within each country. With more cities, there were more teleport formations. More formations meant cheaper teleports, which Roan didn't think twice before paying to use.
By now, the sect had already begun to take form. All the main buildings were up and had disciples going in and out. The Dimensional Realm's forest was also frequently visited by the cultivators of the sect. They often come back with many materials to use for forging, alchemy, formations, talismans, and things like that.
With that being said, the sect also got its Blacksmith, Alchemy, Formations, Talisman, and other side occupation buildings where the disciples could learn.
At first, it was quite hard to teach people those topics since there was only Rean, Roan, and Havek there. Not to mention that neither of them knew much about talismans, for example. However, although they didn't know anything, that didn't mean people didn't want to learn.
With that, the twins knew they needed people who were proficient in those side occupations to help teach their disciples.
That was the only moment the twins used another method to recruit experts, Divine Stones! So far, everyone who was recruited was mostly people without other choices. However, that wouldn't work when one needed knowledgeable people.
Both Rean and Roan started to stop by the side occupation buildings in the big cities they teleported to. There, they would offer payment in Divine Stones for masters that were willing to join the sect. To make sure no one would doubt them, they used Soul Binding Contracts stating that the job was genuine and that these masters only had to do their part.
Of course, there was also the part where they would have to keep secrets stated in the contracts. However, these kinds of contracts that asked for secrecy were very common between contract users. Formation Masters were especially used to them since they couldn't spread the blueprints of the formations they were hired to build to their employer's enemies.
The only problem was that the twins had to mention that anyone who accepted those jobs would not come back to their cities anymore. Well, the twins promised a very good payment, so they knew some of the masters would definitely choose to leave their roots behind in front of so much profit. Besides, since the payment was written in the contract that the twins signed, everyone believed they would get paid. Well, the contracts didn't have any effect on the twins, but they would pay the agreed amount nevertheless. The contracts they were signing were only there to put the masters at ease.
In each city that the twins stopped by, they succeeded in recruiting one or two experts in each field on average. After passing through the entire Aefer Continent, the side occupation buildings in the System Sect now had quite a few experts in those respective fields.
However, Rean wasn't an idiot. He wouldn't pay those experts forever since it would be a burden on the sect's finances. With that said, he added a clause to the contracts that these experts would only receive those high payments for one year! After that, they could choose to leave or join the sect. The Soul Binding Contracts 'prevented' the twins or anyone from the sect from doing anything against those experts, so it was guaranteed that the twins would let those experts go after they got their payments.
Well, one could imagine what happened after that. The System Sect had an amazing cultivation environment. Rare materials were always available. Divine Stones could be earned like nowhere else. Cultivation techniques, especially the Analgesic Pills to start body cultivation, were also available for members. In the end, who said these experts wanted to leave the sect? Some didn't even wait for the entire year of the contract to be over and joined the sect officially.
The traveling System Sect was definitely getting bigger and bigger on all sides. From the looks of it, Roan's army would definitely become true in the future.
