The Heiress’ Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call



Chapter 1796 Not Meant to be Saved

A rumor had spread throughout the cultivation world, claiming that those who managed to gather 81 spirit cores from various spirits had a higher chance of ascending to the highest realm in the Arcane Way. Such a rumor had led various sects to maintain stringent oversight on mystic spirits.

Certain spirit cores were believed to help strengthen one's physical body and reinforce cultivation growth. The higher the mystic spirit's rank, the more beneficial its spirit core was to the cultivators.

Under such circumstances, Wynter's intentions were nothing short of a blatant challenge against long-standing rules.

To the world, demons and monsters were evil by nature. As Wynter expected, the villagers swiftly turned to Mt. Nyxvarn for help after being terrorized.

Although the sects took in new disciples each year, the purpose had noticeably shifted throughout the years.

Centuries ago, disciples were taken in to be nurtured, with the hope of helping them reach ascension. But now, the sects were primarily concerned with growing their influence and acquiring more servants.

Nowadays, sects placed more importance on a disciple's background and status. The

disciples who rose to prominence were either a direct lineage of the grand master, royalty, or aristocratic families' descendants.

Meanwhile, those taken in from the outside were reduced to servants, known as a disciple in name only. And yet, the villagers saw it differently.
