High Martial Arts: Gains one point of health per second, sweeping across the heavens.

"That old fogey of the Yin-Yang Sacred Palace, in the 'Yin-Yang Heaven,' emphasizes the balance of Yin and Yang, the rotation of Tai Chi, and has the most rules, which is boring."

"The barbarians of the Primordial Immortal Sect live in the 'Primordial Heaven,' a place that is said to still retain many ancient and wild landscapes. The blood energy there is extremely violent, making it suitable for body-refining fanatics."

"The fairies and immortals of Jade Void Palace, in Jade Void Heaven, are ethereal and have quite a few rules, but the environment is indeed elegant and suitable for retirement."

"The Supreme Dao Palace, huh?" Hua Wuqi curled his lip. "It occupies the title of 'Supreme Pure and Subtle Heaven,' has the longest name, the grandest presence, boasts the oldest lineage, and holds some of the power of the heavens. It's incredibly arrogant."

"The Myriad Laws Sect is located in 'Myriad Laws Heaven,' a place known for its 'eclectic' nature, where all sorts of law fluctuations can be found, and its Scripture Pavilion is indeed the best in the world."

"Those mysterious fellows from the Samsara Immortal Sect are hiding in the 'Samsara Heaven,' where time and space are said to be somewhat distorted, and getting close can easily give you nightmares."

"The Wuji Immortal Sect is the most convenient. It's located in the 'Wuji Heaven,' which is said to be empty and close to a state of 'nothingness,' making it suitable for comprehending the laws and the Great Dao—of course, I think it's probably because they're too lazy to renovate."

Su Jie found it amusing; this Senior Brother Hua was truly merciless in his critiques.

"What about the remaining twenty-three days?" Su Jie pressed.

"The rest?" Hua Wuqi flicked the grass stem, turning it into more tiny specks of light. "That'll be complicated. Roughly divided into several pieces."

"First, it's the territory of the 'Overwatch Council,' which occupies the three offices of 'Celestial Patrol,' 'Laws and Decrees,' and 'Prisons.'"

Hua Wuqi's expression turned slightly serious. "These guys are the 'city management' and 'imperial guards' of the Zixiao Heavens. They are in charge of monitoring the internal order of the heavens and cracking down on illegal activities. They have a lot of power and are the most difficult to mess with."

Especially the 'Heaven of Punishments,' a place that imprisons serious criminals; I've heard the rules there are enough to drive even a Sovereign Realm being mad. It's best to stay away from them.

"Secondly, there's the 'Daoist Army Camp,' which occupies five of the Heavenly Stems: 'Po Jun,' 'Tan Lang,' 'Qi Sha,' 'Wu Qu,' and 'Tian Ce.'" Hua Wuqi pointed to several points of light radiating a sharp, murderous aura.

"This is the main armed force of the Dao Clan for conquering foreign lands and guarding the heavens. It is full of killers, with strict discipline and terrifying combat power."

Our sect disciples generally don't go there unless they've accepted a related mission, or... they've committed a serious offense and are being thrown in for 'trials'."

"Then there is the 'Elders' Council' and its subordinate halls, which occupy the five heavens of 'Ziwei,' 'Tianji,' 'Siming,' 'Gongde,' and 'Zaohua.'"

Hua Wuqi spoke more casually, “‘Ziwei Heaven’ is the headquarters of the Elder Council. All the major decisions of the heavens are discussed there… oh no, I mean debated.”

The Heavenly Mystery Hall is responsible for deducing celestial secrets and monitoring anomalies in the heavens; the Fate Hall manages the registers of life and reincarnation of some beings.

The Hall of Merit is where you'll most frequently interact with tasks, calculate merits, and distribute rewards; the Hall of Creation manages the allocation of most public resources and the opening of large-scale dungeons.

"And there are also the six directions of heaven and earth where all the sects under the nine great holy sects reside."

"The public cultivation sanctuary, 'Enlightenment Sea,' occupies a single day. It is a pure ocean of laws and condensed Dao essence. It requires a large amount of merit to enter. It is a good place, but also a place that burns through money."

"The 'Heavenly Crafts Hall,' which refines magical artifacts and equipment for use throughout the heavens and maintains the veins of the Heavenly Dao, occupies the 'Heaven of Ingenious Artifacts.'"

"The remaining days will be either controlled areas of special secret realms, ruins, or dangerous places, or secluded places of cultivation for some retired old monsters, or resource-producing areas, each managed by different organizations or forces."

Hua Wuqi finished speaking in one breath and concluded: "So you see, although the Zixiao Heavens seem to be one, in reality, there are many factions inside, each with its own territory and interests."

Our nine great sects are considered top-tier factions, but they are not invincible.

The Censorate, the Daoist Army, and the Elders' Council can all check and balance us. Of course, under normal circumstances, we keep to ourselves and often cooperate.

Su Jie's heart surged with emotion as he listened; the complexity of the Purple Heavens far exceeded his imagination.

This is not just a realm of Daoist beings; it is the core of a highly developed and hierarchically structured cosmic civilization!

"Thank you for your explanation, Senior Brother," Su Jie said sincerely. This information was crucial for his future foothold in the Purple Heavens.

"Don't mention it, we're family." Hua Wuqi waved his hand, then grinned mischievously.

"But you're a hot commodity now, and also a sitting duck. Joining my Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Sect is like having a protective charm, but even more people will be watching you."

While the other members of the Holy Sect might not dare to do anything openly, they certainly didn't hold back in their underhanded tactics.

And then there are those large and small families and forces that are attached to the various holy sects; there might be some who want to climb over you to get ahead, or simply who don't like you.

He pointed ahead, and at the end of the flowing light, a boundless and magnificent world, where stars and illusions intertwined, was already in sight.

There, a majestic sacred mountain stands in the center of the world, with countless palaces and pavilions built against it, spirit birds flying about, celestial clouds swirling around, and a vast and boundless spiritual energy field enveloping the surrounding area.

We've arrived at the Myriad Forms Heaven.

"Remember, on our own turf, as long as we're in the right, we can act as arrogantly as we want! Neither the Sect Master nor any of us disciples of the Myriad Manifestations Heaven Sect are afraid of trouble. Outside of Myriad Manifestations Heaven..."

Hua Wuqi grinned, revealing a set of white teeth, "Be cowardly when you should be cowardly, be cunning when you should be cunning, run away when you can't beat them, and come back to call for reinforcements!"

Our Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Sect may not have much else, but we're fiercely protective of our own! As long as you don't die, the sect will bail you out—of course, provided you don't intentionally commit suicide or betray the sect.

Su Jie nodded emphatically: "This disciple will remember!"

"Come on, let's land! I'll show you the world!"

The stream of light suddenly accelerated, rushing into the unique spiritual energy field of the Myriad Forms Heaven.

Su Jie immediately felt as if his soul was soaking in warm spring water, and every thought became clearer and more active.

At the foot of Wanxiang Divine Mountain, the massive mountain gate is already in sight.

The mountain gate is guarded by two lifelike giant statues, and the four large characters "Wanxiang Tianzong" on the plaque are radiant and seem to contain endless illusions.

A considerable number of people had already gathered in front of the mountain gate. Clearly, news of Su Jie's impending arrival had spread.

Hua Wuqi led Su Jie down from the clouds and landed on the ground.

Immediately, all sorts of gazes were cast upon him. There was curiosity, scrutiny, amazement, envy, and a few subtle expressions of resentment.

"Master Hua is back!"

"That's Su Jie? He's said to be a ninth-tier transcendent god-level Dharma Aspect?"

"So young! His aura is indeed unfathomable!"

"I heard he punched those toddlers who had just grown up and made them cry?"

"The new champion has joined our sect? Excellent! Let's see who dares to say that my Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Sect is only strong in Saint Souls now!"

A buzz of discussion arose.
