Matthew led the way to Alchemical Sect on the following day. While they were on the way, Matthew recounted the stories of the sects in the hidden realm.
Although there were only nine sects in the hidden realm now, there used to be more of them. However, these people fought and took over each other's clans. Ultimately, only nine were left after the battle, each dominating their lands.
The nine sects might look like they were living harmoniously now without a care about the world as they cultivated, but the truth was the conflict between them never stopped as they all wanted to snatch the others' resources and make them theirs.
Initially, Luminous Sect was one of the more powerful sects. Everything went downhill after Matthew was wounded and left with underlying ailments after his fight with the Demonic Cultivators. Hence, now he could only give resources to Alchemical Sect as tribute in return for the amp pill that would keep him alive. As the days progressed, the capabilities of Luminous Sect dwindled as their resources decreased, to the point where it was now considered the weakest among the nine sects.
Soon, Jared and Matthew arrived at a valley.
Jared scanned his surroundings. It was a barren land with no signs of life, so he asked, “Mr. Campbell, is this arid area where the Alchemical Sect is located?”
He was confused because he didn't understand why the sect would settle in a desolate area.
“Haha! Jared, what you see might not be the truth. I'm sure you know what that means, right?” Matthew laughed.
Realization dawned on Jared. Oh! Did Alchemical Sect place an arcane array here, so what I see is just an illusion?
With a wave of Matthew's hand, a beam of light appeared before them. After that, both men walked into the light.
Once he regained his senses, a pleasant fragrance of herbs wafted into Jared's nostrils. Before his eyes were fields of regular herbs and also exotic herbs that were regarded as treasures by many martial arts families. Besides that, birds were also flying around the valley while flowers bloomed beautifully. In conclusion, the place was a paradise.
