Chapter 782: The Sect’s Transformation

It’s been twenty years since Raven left the Ancient Elysium Sect. 

Even with him being on vacation, Raven remained aware of the situation within the sect thanks to his avatars.

Although his Avatars didn’t go out that often, Kyrie did her part and always kept the Avatars posted about the developments within the sect. 

For the most part at least, the sect has been relatively peaceful and quiet. The Sect Officials continued working towards their ultimate goal which made Raven really gratified. 

It seems that telling them the possibility of opening up the sect was a good idea since it made them work harder. 

Due to that, the past 20 years had been an enriching time. The sect made a lot of progress and now, they’re ready to face whatever it is that’s coming their way. 

The disciples of the sect also worked really hard. Their overall quality of the sect disciples was raised thanks to Raven’s reforms. Their numbers no longer shrunk since nobody’s dying inside the Devil Emperor’s Pagoda anymore. In fact, the pagoda had been re-purposed already. It has become a really popular trial grounds for disciples. 

In there, not only they’ll be able to hone their skills, they will also receive bountiful rewards for working harder. The harder their trial is, the more satisfaction they will receive upon completing it on top of being rewarded generously. 

How can this not spur them to work harder? 

Because of this, many disciples had experienced breakthroughs during the past twenty years. Their talents bloomed in many ways which greatly increased the quality of the sect’s armed forces.

Raven also made sure to keep an eye out to the sealed Devil Emperor, so much so that he even made 100th floor a personal office where three of his avatars watched over this abomination. Although Raven had full confidence on his sealing runes, it wouldn’t hurt to have an additional layer of security just in case of emergency. 

In the end, his goal was to make sure that this thing won’t kill itself to alarm the Abyssals. He forced it to slumber while silently draining it of its life force. Since the Devil Emperor is an Immortal, his vitality will continue to replenish so long as he has one breath remaining. 

Right now, the Devil Emperor can only be described as the most miserable Immortal there is. Its not allowed to die. Its forced to live as a never ending energy source for not only the pagoda but for the entire sect. 

This was its punishment for all the horrible things it has done to humanity. Raven didn’t feel even an ounce of guilt doing this. 

Mount Olympus has also changed greatly within the past 20 years…

Right now, all disciples and Sect Officials moved to Greece. It is there that they concentrated all the man-power. In order to occupy the millions of disciples the sect has, Greece expanded. 

Greece was a pocket dimension in the first place. It will only require the effort of a few people who are experts in Space Laws and a few formation masters to do the job so this wasn’t difficult at all. 

Tartarus, Asphodel, Elysium, Atlantis…all of these areas had been remodeled into something new. They became trial grounds as well for disciples to improve themselves. The most famous of them all was Elysium. 

Elysium became a Tournament Ground where disciples can participate in endless waves of battles, seeking advice from fellow disciples. The place expanded just as big as Greece since disciples often find themselves coming here either to participate in the Arena Battles or to spectate battles while betting on a few of their favorite contestants.

The absurd thing about this is that…the betting pool is personally supervised by the Grand Elder.

The old man said that this was just a hobby, something to keep him entertained for a bit but Raven knew better. The old man was quite a gambler himself. Sometimes he would also participate in betting. But of course, he held up his dignity, he never manipulated the results. 

Well, at least he was an honest gambler…

The changes aren’t just limited to Mount Olympus, it also reaches the lands surrounding it. 

Before, this place was covered in an white fog which was the result of a formation left behind by their ancestors as a defense mechanism against the remaining army of the Devil Emperor. 

At this point, the War Gods had already cleaned-up the area. With the Devil Emperor permanently sealed inside the Pagoda, his remaining army were also wiped-out. The residual infestation they left was also cleaned up. 

The outer-area is now an extremely large land filled with boundless vitality thanks to Gaia nurturing the land. Once she woke up from her slumber and completed her recovery, she began releasing her divinity in this land, causing Treasure Bowls to appear due to the sheer vitality her divinity blessed the lands with. She can also raise the quality of the Spiritual Energies around, making the place more suitable for cultivation. 

With her around, the Sect can afford to be more generous with their rewards since she can replenish majority of their stocks. And its not like Gaia was being forced to do this. In fact, it’s quite the opposite. She’s doing this out of kindness and need since this is a way for her to relax and cultivate as well. The growth of resources is just a side-effect. 

This is why Gaia was a valuable asset to the sect. Her return wasn’t only celebrated by her old comrades, it is also celebrated by the disciples. 

With the current direction the sect is following, the one who’s gratified the most was none other than the Sect Master himself. 

The amount of times the Sect Master found himself thanking his Ancestors, for giving him a great insight for choosing Raven as his successor, was quite frequent that it’s ridiculous. Ever since Raven came to the Sect, he has been an unstoppable force. 

Under Raven’s lead, the sect saw the light of day. Everybody flourished. Raven didn’t just lightened the burden that the Sect Master was carrying, he directly removed it and carried it himself…quite effortlessly too. 

For the past 20 years, the Sect Master and his wife remained at the Sect, enjoying a rare time of peace and fulfillment. He couldn’t remember the last time he had been so idle. In the past he didn’t even had time to cultivate anymore, even enjoying a cup of tea was difficult for him since he was too busy. 

Now though, he can relax…

Like what was mentioned earlier, Raven managed to remove every single burden the Sect Master was carrying because of his responsibilities to the sect. Now, there’s no need for him to run around the place, tending to every single thing due to the lack of man-power and ever constant threat under their noses. 

In fact, the Sect Master found himself so vacant that he developed another hobby. He returned to his roots and became a farmer. 

Of course, he isn’t just any regular farmer. The resources he’s cultivating are all Spiritual Ingredients that would fetch a scary price on any market. 

This was the Sect Master’s original dream. Back in his youth, he was supposed to inherit his parents’ farm. He wanted to dominate the market with his products. Unfortunately, fate has other plans for him. One twist of life after another lead him here and made him the current Sect Master of the Ancient Elysium Sect. 

But because he was vacant and could afford to have a leisurely life, he wanted to satisfy his longing for his past dream. 

This, in addition to raising a family of his own, is what would really complete his life. Unfortunately, being a Divine Knight made it difficult for him and his wife to succeed in conceiving a child. They had been trying during the past couple of years to no avail. However, the two of them haven’t lost faith just yet.

So far, this has been what the sect has been up to since Raven’s disappearance. 

Even though he had been informed about these developments in real time thanks to Kyrie. Raven still felt quite surprised to see how many changes happened in such a short time. 

This transformation definitely surpassed his expectations. He was confident that he could lead the sect towards glory but he didn’t expect to do it in such a short amount of time. 

At this point, his foundations were unshakeable. With everything here, he could move on with his plans of rocking Divine Realm’s foundations. He was ready to take on the world. 

Only a few things were left for him to do. The most pressing matter is the situation about the upcoming war. 

Their enemies hasn’t been idle, but since they are ignorant about the fact that their every move was monitored by Raven, they are in for a rough ride. 

Raven is now heading back since he had received the summons of the Sect. He just needed to take the helm for this operation and everything would follow through according to how he arranged it. 

It was time to move-on with the plan.
