The eight powerhouses from Taixuan Holy Sect and Haoguang Holy Sect were directly sent outside the stronghold, then surrounded by several hundred planar warriors. The situation immediately became extremely perilous.

One Martial Saint didn’t care whether Jun Changxiao heard him or not and hurriedly shouted loudly: “Sect Master Jun, we’re willing to pay!”

If there were only a few people, he would still have the guts to put up a fight, but eight Martial Saints whose strength wasn’t inferior to his own, plus dozens of Half-Saints—if a battle broke out, he would definitely die without a burial place!

“Are you sure?”

“Sure!”

“What about the others?”

“We’ll pay!”

“Take five steps back.”

The powerhouses from Taixuan Holy Sect and Haoguang Holy Sect hurriedly retreated five steps, then stepped onto the super teleportation array hidden in the darkness. With a swoosh, they were transmitted back to the stronghold.

How strange.

Several hundred planar powerhouses watched them leave but never made a move.

“Everyone.”

Jun Changxiao transmitted his voice: “Thank you for your hard work.”

“Sect Master Jun, you’re too kind!” The lead planar powerhouse cupped his fists, then led the group away.

They came from Lingyuan Continent. Back when the Battlefield Ghosts attacked the stronghold and Jun Gou Sheng extorted warriors from Chihai Continent, this plane was the first to cooperate and pay.

…

Inside the stronghold.

The faces of the powerhouses from both sects who had been teleported back showed expressions of terror.

At this moment, they had realized that the Planar Battlefield was truly terrifying—Half-Saints and Martial Saints of comparable level came in huge groups!

“Everyone.”

Jun Changxiao said: “Pay up!”

Pay, pay, pay!

The warriors from Taixuan Holy Sect and Haoguang Holy Sect, thoroughly frightened, hurriedly paid natural spirit stones per person.

The leaders compromised.

The other sects stopped insisting and presented their spirit stones one after another.

Two thousand powerhouses were all teleported to the Floating Mountain one by one. Sect Master Jun was grinning from ear to ear because he had earned nearly two hundred million natural spirit stones!

This was an extremely massive number.

If distributed among seventy thousand disciples, each person could receive nearly three thousand stones on average!

Jun Changxiao stood up, stretched lazily, and grinned: “These two years haven’t been wasted.”

The System said: “Two hundred million natural spirit stones are enough for the sect disciples to have sufficient resources to greatly increase their cultivation.”

Sect Master Jun’s smile grew even wider.

The sect now had seventy thousand members. Relying solely on the martial facilities in the shop was far from enough. Only with sufficient martial resources would breakthrough in realms become easier.

“With this large sum of martial resources, having all sect members reach Martial Grandmaster won’t be a problem,” Jun Changxiao said.

The System said: “As long as we can keep up with Martial King Pills, making all sect disciples reach Martial King in a short time won’t be difficult either.”

“The key is, we can’t keep up,” Jun Changxiao said.

Pills that increased realm required extremely numerous medicinal materials with long growth cycles, making it impossible to provide one for each disciple.

However.

With several hundred million natural spirit stones, disciples could quickly break through to peak Martial Grandmaster, then wait for Martial King Pills.

Previously, the situation was that every period of time, a fixed number of Martial King Pills could be refined, but disciples might not have reached the requirements for use. Now, once the spirit stones were distributed, the situation would definitely be reversed.

“Comfortable.”

“This is so damn comfortable!”

…

All two thousand powerhouses from Xingyun Continent were settled on Floating Mountain. Although they were all premium users, the treatment was slightly different—those familiar with Jun Changxiao lived in villas, while those unfamiliar or with grudges lived in wing rooms.

“The murderous aura here is so strong!”

“Just looking at that dim sky makes you feel extremely oppressed!”

“Many warriors must have died here, otherwise there wouldn’t be such an atmosphere.”

Many powerhouses gathered together to discuss the Planar Battlefield, sharing their feelings after arriving here.

“Everyone.”

Jun Changxiao stood on the main peak and said: “In the area where our stronghold is located, we have two neighbors. On the left is Chihai Continent, on the right is Lingyun Continent.”

“Ah?”

The various powerhouses immediately widened their eyes.

They had heard from the High Priest about these two planes, which loved to bully newcomers the most. Since their Xingyun Continent bordered them, they would definitely suffer!

Those warriors who had originally planned to leave the stronghold to explore outside all dismissed the thought, afraid of encountering warriors from Chihai Continent or Lingyun Continent outside and losing their lives for nothing.

“These two planes are very unfriendly. This seat suffered quite a bit from their bullying when I first entered,” Jun Changxiao said.

“However.”

After pausing, he said: “Now there’s no threat at all, because they’ve already been beaten into submission by my Eternal Sect.”

“…”

Everyone’s mouths twitched slightly, expressing skepticism.

“Any plane that can enter the battlefield is unfriendly. If you want to go out and look around but don’t want to be harassed, you can wear my Eternal Sect’s sect clothing,” Jun Changxiao said.

“Snap.”

He snapped his fingers.

Li Qingyang and Xiao Zui Ji descended, taking out a large pile of Eternal Sect uniforms.

“My Eternal Sect clothing has superior materials and is purely handmade. Considering we’re all from the same plane, one set costs only one thousand natural spirit stones,” Jun Changxiao said.

“…”

The mouths of various powerhouses twitched.

Entering Floating Mountain cost us a hundred thousand natural spirit stones, and the clothes are charged separately too—has this guy fallen into a pile of money or what!

“Of course.”

Jun Changxiao said solemnly: “The clothes have this seat’s personal signature, so they’re not only wearable but also have great collection value.”

Fortunately, everyone present was at Imperial level or higher; otherwise, they would have already started cursing loudly.

…

Outside the stronghold.

Mu Changhong wore Eternal Sect uniform, flying through the sky with lingering fear in his heart. Finally, he couldn’t help but ask: “Daughter, this Planar Battlefield is extremely dangerous. Are we really safe going out?”

“Father.”

Mu Honglian smiled: “Very safe!”

Although City Lord Mu trusted his daughter, feeling the increasingly strong murderous aura in the air, he was still very uneasy.

“Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!”

Just then, streams of light flew past from a distance. The auras they emitted made him exclaim in shock: “My heavens, they’re all at Half-Saint level!”

Mu Honglian smiled: “It seems two planes are having a fight. Let’s go watch the excitement.”

“No, no, no!”

Mu Changhong hurriedly tried to dissuade her: “Father just came out to take a quick look around. Let’s skip watching the excitement.”

“Father, let’s go.”

Under Mu Honglian’s forceful dragging, he helplessly flew over, then saw from a distance nearly a hundred people standing on two sides, glaring at each other angrily, as if they would start fighting at any moment.

Mu Changhong just casually swept his gaze over and discovered that at least forty or fifty people on both sides were stronger than him, so his heart pounded as he thought: “The Planar Battlefield is too terrifying!”

“Whoosh, whoosh!”

“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!”

The powerhouses from the two planes challenging each other all released their cultivation, making the surrounding atmosphere oppressive.

However, when they were about to attack, they inadvertently saw Mu Honglian and Mu Changhong. Their expressions immediately changed drastically: “Not good, they’re from Xingyun Continent!”

“Swish! Swish! Swish!”

In an instant, nearly a hundred people from both planes disappeared without a trace.

Mu Changhong stood rooted to the spot like a wooden chicken. After a moment, he said incredulously: “Daughter… were they scared away by us?”

“Mm.”

Mu Honglian said bitterly: “They were all scared away.”

What happened to Mu Changhong was also happening successively elsewhere.

City Lord Han and others had spent money to wear Eternal Sect uniforms and flew cautiously outside the stronghold. Whenever they encountered warriors, before they could even lift their feet to run, the other party would be scared into fleeing first.

…

“You may not believe this, but I just went out for a stroll and somehow ended up at Chihai Continent’s stronghold. At the time I thought I was dead for sure, but they ran faster than me!”

“I believe it!”

“Because I encountered the same thing!”

Many people had spent money to buy Eternal Sect uniforms. Only after wearing them and going out for a tour did they deeply believe what Jun Changxiao had said before.

“These one thousand natural spirit stones didn’t buy clothes—they bought a protective talisman!” City Lord Han said with emotion.

Those warriors who had originally been somewhat resistant heard them speak so convincingly, so after careful consideration, they purchased Eternal Sect uniforms one after another. Going out to test it, sure enough, what was said was true!

At that moment.

The powerhouses from Xingyun Continent were completely stunned.

What exactly had Jun Changxiao and his Eternal Sect done on the battlefield to make powerhouses from various planes see the uniform and act like mice seeing a cat!
