Chapter 495: The Ones At The Pinnacle Of The Continent

-----

The possibilities were quite interesting now.

We could even begin some trade contracts, and what if I offer my powers as a service too and become famous in the continent? I could gain recognition and have a chance to join this Court…

If I join this court founded by the Venerable, there might be chances for me to grab all the treasures there!

Although it would be dangerous to do…

But without risk there are no rewards.

Well, not like I will be jumping into the open mouth of a shark or something.

I might gradually and slowly gain more recognition as an amazing saint or some stupid bullshit like that.

With that, I could get into their good side.

Even if they find out I am actually a dragon, because I am so nice and amazing, they'll spare me and consider me an equal.

Well, all of this is just my imagination, I don't know what might truly happen.

I need to investigate more about this entire thing and see how things might truly turn out at the end.

But I cannot really hide my excitement over the wide and vast possibilities.

I wonder how many sects are out there though…

While looking at everywhere how my people was repairing the buildings and more, we got into the tower-like temple and quickly started a feast, the sect finally decided to cook something for us, who they were starving us to death!

They quickly decided to prepare their special plates and more, using exotic ingredients that had poison and venom, which was neutralized through many special methods.

Well, I still always checked them before, but always found they were neutralized.

The poison and venom were canceled with one another and turned into another ingredient, intensifying the flavors like nothing we had ever tasted before.

Intense flavors.

The soups were delicious, filled with great flavor, and quite amazing, the animals used were mostly snakes and other poisonous reptiles, but there were also certain mammals.

Their meat was tender and tasty, the venom and poison canceled one another and turned the flavors more intense, spicy, and even citric.

It was like eating Chinese cuisine in some cases by how many spices they added, which were actually these venoms and poisons.

We filled our bellies with these amazing and delectable plates, as we made our way through many different plates. I also added my own ingredients to the kitchen, and they were cooked too, making more normal plates.

I decided to ask more about this Court to Thaletus while enjoying the food.

"Ah, the Primeval Frost Soul Court? Yes, it is a place where the strongest of the continent gather. As it was founded by the Venerable, it is mostly arranged by Immortals… there are two meetings between sects, the one that include mortals, which they use mortal sect masters from famous sects that belong to their entire alliance, and then the immortal one, where only the immortals within these sects gather… well, our sects don't have any immortals, we are mortal sects, so we don't get to join there, but we can join the mortal gathering, they don't discriminate and welcome any righteous sect." said Thaletus

"I see…"

So there are two meetings that this Court does, the Immortals Meeting and then the Immortal Meeting, pretty easy to get. I suppose that not all sects in this continent got Immortals on them. I have yet to find one with an immortal on it.

Perhaps larger-scale ones do have them watching over them, but I would had already realized it if there was an immortal in the three sects I've visited.

Thankfully they're like watchful gods and don't intervene if possible, so I can leisurely do my things without fearing them coming down to kill me or something...

But I am still rather concerned about them, so I better not mess with any righteous sect, and if I want them for myself, I must do the alliance slowly until they become part of my Empire.

But against the bad sects like the Dark Shadow Sect? Yeah, no, I am going to just destroy them.

They had already done a lot of evil, so it is totally justified, right, Ice Queen?

Yeah, she totally gives me her thumbs up…

Well, I hope so.

As long as it includes slaughtering evil vampires, she's all for it.

Anyways, nonsensical ramblings aside, I decided to ask a few other things to Thaletus.

"How many sects are out there?" I asked.

"How many? Well, a lot! There are many sects in the continent, and even more in the entire world… I remember seeing at leas thirty sects in the last meeting…" he said.

"Well, damn, there are indeed a lot of sects…" I said.

"But there are also Kingdoms, Nations, and Empires, around twenty if you combine them all. These places often don't follow the same rules as sects, sometimes they even have different monetary systems! Certain areas of the continent are more filled with these types of monarchies than sects, although in other places they're mixed together and live with one another in harmony for the most part… Sects usually offer the service of their disciples to the nations and kingdoms in exchange for the goods they produce, there are many kingdoms that have stablished sects alliances that had lasted hundreds of years." Said Thaletus.

So there are Kingdoms and more.

This is clearly not just a Cultivation world with sects as the only thing there is to it, there are entire Nations, Kingdoms, and Empires.

In a way, Sects are usually small compared to them and their large population and production of resources, so they do pacts with them to offer their strength, becoming the official fighters of these kingdoms.

I guess the sects themselves are still there playing a big role, but now backed by a Kingdom that kind of "owns" them, in a way.

I can't help but wonder if it is the same for the rest of the world… I suppose it should be, I don't see any point in not…
