Chapter 189
As they sailed toward the mountain’s entrance by boat, the looming buildings among the trees before could be seen more clearly.
Not only did Sandra see the wide and flat stone platform, but he also caught sight of the majestic eaves.
Sandra even noticed a few disciples in Heavenly Stars Sect‘s white robes walking in the corridors.
Everywhere Sandra looked, the scene would be extremely refined.
Even with each breath he took, Sandra smelled a refreshing aroma.
Seeing his expression, Sebastian chuckled.
“With the founder’s blessing, the Heavenly Stars Sect is full of spiritual Qi.
Thus, practicing within the mountain gate is far more beneficial than in other places.
Moreover, there are even blessed spots within the sect where the spiritual Qi is abundant, and a day of training there is worth ten days outside.”
When Sandra heard that, he was intrigued.
“Do we need sect contribution points to enter the blessed spots?”
“You’re indeed wise,” Sebastian showed a thumbs up and laughed, “The blessed spots in the sect are also ranked.
The higher the ranking, the richer the spiritual Qi.
Moreover, if you cultivate in a thousands year old sacred spot, you might even have a happy encounter.
Nonetheless, you’ll also need to spend more sect contribution points if you want to cultivate for a day in a higher rank blessed spot.
As for the contribution points, there’s no need for you to be anxious about it for now.
Once you enter, you should cultivate peace of mind.
You can choose to complete your early sect tasks with others and accumulate your points slowly.
Then, when you enter a higher realm, you can finish your mission on your own.”
As Sebastian was explaining from his experience, Sandra remembered them all by heart.
After pondering for a moment, Sandra asked, “Sebastian, I still have another question.
Do we use sect contribution points to trade in the sect?”
“We don’t,” Sebastian shook his head, “The sect contribution points are usually used to distribute tasks or pick resources needed by the sect.
Between the disciples, trades will mostly be done through a barter system.
The value is negotiated with each other, and there’s no accurate and unified standard.
”
Then, Sebastian thought for a moment before adding, “If you’re talking about a physical currency, then it’ll be the spirit stone followed by the fedulings.
As for the gold and silver used in the mortal world, no one generally needs it unless it has a special purpose for making tools.
”
“So that’s how it is…” Sandra nodded.
Sebastian chuckled, “Casper, the pathway to immortality is a long one.
You’ll gradually understand many matters after you get in contact with them, and you don’t have to rush for them now.
As long as you keep improving your realm, what should come will come, and what should be yours will be yours.”
“Mhm.
Thank you for the guidance, Sebastian,” Sandra quickly thanked him.
As the small boat sped, Sebastian took this opportunity to introduce the buildings flashing before them.
“Casper, do you see that platform with a gold rim? That’s the magic array platform.
Many disciples will be there to research and study formations.
In the future, if you have achieved any comprehension on formations, you can go there and discuss with other people.”
“Casper, that triangular building is the mission pavilion.
Usually, the Pulse Control Realm disciples will be there to accept tasks.”
“Casper, do you see that row of silver fences? After passing through that, you’ll reach the Immortal Soldiers Arena.
Fellow disciples can compete there, and winners will be rewarded.”

With Sebastian‘s thorough introduction, Sandra not only understood the Heavenly Stars Sect’s surrounding environment, but he also noticed that if he wanted to get more resources in the sect, he must take the initiative and fight with others for them.
Taking the mission pavilion as an example, whether it was a task given by the sect or an individual, it would be for the sake of the Heavenly Stars Sect.
Therefore, if Sandra wanted to obtain more sect contribution points, he would have to do those missions and contribute to the sect.
Moreover, based on Sebastian’s explanation, if a Heavenly Stars Sect’s disciple won in the Immortal Soldiers Arena, they would be ranked based on their daily winning rate.
Those disciples with higher rankings would receive various rewards on that day, and they could be either sect contribution points, precious medicines, or other cultivation resources.
Apart from that, what shocked Sandra the most was the stone monument he saw when Sebastian brought him to collect his jade identification badge.
The stele was three-story-height, and the light was floating on its surface.
At a glance, Sandra could tell that it was an extraordinary item.
Additionally, Sandra thought the stele appeared familiar as there were names formed by lights on it, just like the virtual spirit stele in the Sects’ Recruitment Ceremony.
However, the names on this stone monument appeared more solid, and each word was beautifully crafted.
“Xander Faris, Omar Pine, Maya Kaye, Benedict Hopkins…” Sandra softly read out the names from top to bottom.
Although he did not see those people before, Sandra could feel a strong hunch.
Each of their names emitted a different meaning.
Some were aloof, some were gentle, and some were murderous… It was as if their characters were attached to the names here.
When Sebastian saw Sandra staring at the stele in awe, he also showed a solemn expression and said, “Casper, this is the respectful, spiritual apprentice list that I’m going to introduce to you.”
“Spiritual apprentice list?” Sandra turned his head over.
“That’s right!” Sebastian nodded, “Casper, you‘re now in the Pulse Control Realm, so you must remember that there are three most important lists for the Heavenly Stars Sect’s Pulse Control Realm disciples.
They are the spiritual apprentice list for the fellow apprentices, the earth fiend list for the outer disciples, and the celestial star list for the inner disciples.”
Sandra quickly realized that the three lists corresponded to the three stages of the Pulse Control Realm.
“Sebastian, we can get more cultivation resources by appearing on this list, right?” Sandra asked.
“That’s right.
Not only will you get cultivation resources…” Sebastian looked at the names on the top of the list.
As a second-stage Pulse Control Realm cultivator, he could not help but show an envious look as he continued, “Those that appear at the top of the list have higher chance to be valued by an older, and once the elder favors them, they might even be accepted as a personal disciple.
That will be like rising to great heights, and they may even receive a greater fortune…”
Sandra was about to ask what the greater fortune could be, but Sebastian already waved his hands and said, “Casper, you’ll understand all this once you experience them.
If I say too much now, you’ll be less excited.
Let‘s get going.
I’ll bring you to take your jade identification badge, and once you have it, you’ll officially be the Heavenly Stars Sect disciple.”
Sandra pondered for a moment and hurriedly caught up with Sebastian as he whispered, “Sebastian, I have another question about the spiritual apprentice list.”
“Hmm?” Sebastian looked at Edgar.
“What’s the ranking on the spiritual apprentice list based on?” Sandra asked.
Sebastian quickly understood Sandra’s meaning, and he led Sandra to move forward as he explained, “The list is naturally based on strength, but I know what you’re asking.
Regardless of the spiritual apprentice list, earth fiend list, or the celestial star list, it will change once every three months based on the disciples’ strength.”
