Awakened: The Spirit King!

They earned a fortune selling the bones of the skeletons they killed in the secret spirit realm to the sect, and it was their first rain of wealth.

The sect elders promoting them to the inner court was their second rain of fortune!

The sect provides for each disciple\'s daily needs, and it also gives them cultivation resources depending on their status.

There was a strict hierarchy amongst members of the black unicorn sect.

Those at the bottom of the hierarchy had to respect those with a higher status than them, for the sect demanded it.

The outer sect members or informal members were at the very of the bottom hierarchy, and they were the bootlickers of the black unicorn sect.

The ones above them but below everyone on the ladder were the outer court members.

Above them were the inner court members.

The Core Disciples were almost at the top of the hierarchy.

Only the patriarch and the core elders of the sect were above them.

The sect based the status of its disciples depending on their talent, overall ability, and their meritorious services to the sect.

The amount of resources the sect allocates to them each month corresponds to their status within the sect.

Disciples higher on the hierarchy have greater status and receive more resources from the black unicorn Sect.

As each member of Chen Yuan\'s group has become inner court disciples, the amount of resources they were to receive from the sect this month had increased by ten times!

Also, the inner court leader granted them a core formation pill because of the contribution they made to the sect by not only finding the secret spirit realm but also gaining legal rights for their sect members to enter it.

It was a pill that would increase their chance of reaching the sect realm by 15%!

They had never thought that a simple mission of finding out what happened to their juniors would lead them to earn a considerable fortune and also a promotion in their status.

It wasn\'t easy for an outer sect disciple to become an inner court disciple. A person must pass three to four exams and be in the top hundred ranking of the yearly sect tournament to become one. It was a challenging feat to achieve because there were more than ten thousand outer sect members, and only a hundred out of them could become inner court disciples.

However, because they had made outstanding contributions to the sect, they had skipped that step to become inner court members!

In the end, wasn\'t their current accomplishment all thanks to Xie Yang?

They looked at the distant northern skies with respect in their eyes before cupping their hands and lowering their heads in the same direction.

It was their way of thanking Xie Yang in their heart.

Their fate, destiny, and circumstances had taken a turn for the better because of Xie Yang!

The target of their admiration just finished having a heart-to-heart talk with his father.

Xie Yang had revealed his most guarded secret to his father.

He was afraid that Xie Yong would find it hard to treat him like his son after knowing he had gained memories of his past life.

However, his worries were unfound.

Xie Yong was silent for a while, but after that, he accepted him with open hands and even told him that he would always be his son in his heart.

Xie Yong\'s memories of raising his youngest son weren\'t false.

Xie Yang was his son in all ways and forms.

Even though he had gained memories of his past life, it didn\'t change the fact that he came out of the womb of his first wife and was his last memory of her.

Xie Yong was also happy with Xie Yang because he had exceeded his expectations and become extremely capable.

As a feudal lord, Xie Yong knew what was good for him and his people, and he didn\'t waste any time before contacting the patriarch of the black unicorn sect and relaying his thoughts to him.

The black unicorn sect had a history of a thousand years, and it was a ruling sect that dealt with controlling the mundane world and supporting the empire.

One Palace, Four Great Families, Three Ruling Sects, Two Academies, and one Association made up the core of the Glorious Sun Empire.

The black unicorn sect was one of the three ruling sects, while Xie Yong was a descendant of one of the four great families.

In the eyes of the public, his status, cultivation, and background were not as good as the patriarch of the sect, but he wasn\'t too far off from him either.

Xie Yong struck up a deal with the patriarch of the black unicorn sect.

A week later, they will send their level 1 to level 20 cultivators to explore the secret spirit realm.

It was not like those above level 20 didn\'t have any interest in exploring it.

They wanted to, but they couldn\'t go inside it.

A mystical barrier that they failed to understand was blocking them from entering it.

Only cultivators below the third realm could enter it.

Xie Yong had decided on sending two of his good sons to explore that place seven days later along with a few hundred of the talents he had cultivated so far.

Seven days was a long time, and Xie Yang planned to waste not a single one of these seven days.
