A week passed since the Feng House and Princess Cai Yin officially signed a trade agreent with the Soaring Feather Trading Company.
They instantly solved the sudden food crisis for the Fantian and Tingren Kingdoms respectively, turning the tables on their political opponents.
It also marked a week since around 300 Sects all across the continent, the entirety of this continent's cultivation world, had massive changes to their structure all at the sa ti.
So had revolts, toppling the Sect Master and their supporters, just like what happened in the Frozen Garden Palace.
So had to purge a portion of their conservative Grand Elders and Elders, alongside their supporters, much like it was supposed to happen in the Clear River Pavilion which Wei Lan was part of.
There were also cases among them of Sects prevailing over the takeover, but crushed by several neighboring ones who did not, thus perishing almost overnight.
As well as cases in which the Sect that managed to prevail mysteriously vanished, seemingly aided by an unknown force before the other Sects arrived.
And though this was supposed to be a major incident, for the Mortal countries such as the Six Kingdoms, these news were not as resounding as they rarely paid much attention to what happened in the world of the cultivators, since it was too far removed from their mortal worries.
Only those who aspired for a life of cultivation, dreaming of entering one of those mysterious and distant Cultivation Sects were stirred, but they were a negligible minority, like in all tis.
The only other entity who faced consequences of this incident was the Soaring Feather Trading Company, as the Sects all over the continent stopped selling cultivation resources through them and began working exclusively with the Golden Ox Trading Company.
However, since the Sects were not able to provide as much resources as of late due to the rise in Demonic Beast activity, Liugwei rcenary Corps which started operating not long ago was able to fill in the hollow spot in the supply alongside the Yin Yang Unity Palace.
Both groups were rapidly improving in strength due to improved techniques as well as special cultivation environnt within the Sect's secret cultivation facility, and thus were able to contend with the changing environnt.
It would not be long before they would begin to provide an abundance of resources that the normal Sects would not be able to keep up with, thus making the Soaring Feather Trading Company one of the biggest suppliers of cultivation resources on the market.
But even with that, this significant incident passed largely unnoticed by the mortal world.

By this ti, Luo Mingyu finished her seclusion, since her cultivation required the least amount of Spiritual Qi to reconstruct, and she could not advance further simply by ditation like others.
She was closely followed by Gong Cui and Wu ngqi.
The forr managed not only to finish restructuring her cultivation, but also advance as far as it was possible with her current comprehension of the Music Dao.
And the latter has finished digesting everything she comprehended in her lessons with Ye Ling.
The only other one who finished even faster than the three, much to Wu ngqi's dismay, was Ye Ling, who only required absorbing the Spiritual Qi, having already made significant achievents in her Sword Dao to go much further in cultivation than it was currently possible.
"Wu Long, I think I know the final missing piece I need to make my Dao Intent's initial form complete"
Luo Mingyu spoke up as they sat in a garden gazebo with Gong Cui, the two sword master ladies already departing for the training fields, though one of them was hauled away rather than went on her own.
"Missing piece? I thought you said you already comprehended it?"
Gong Cui looked surprised since it was not long since the purple-eyed beauty was congratulated on the achievent by everyone.
Her fingers were hovering over the strings of her instrunt, as she finished playing a piece.
"Mm, I wouldn't say I comprehended it, more like stumbled upon it... the way I perceive it is a bit similar to how you describe your Music Dao..."
Luo Mingyu smiled, nodding to her, and the analogy made the green-eyed musician nod with understanding.
The way Gong Cui comprehended Music Dao was not theoretical, after all, but rather an innate 'sense' that she grew more and more attuned to and aligned with.
And while she knew the music theory, it was not that which made her talent so special, but the part she could not easily explain.
For the most part, it was completely the opposite with Luo Mingyu, as she was a theoretic who had to find reason and logic, as well as thoroughly and completely comprehend a concept in order to wield it.
However, she nevertheless attained her Dao Intent in a similar way with Gong Cui.
In a sense it was also much like Wu Long's Dao Runes, since he had them and could use their powers, but had to constantly study and deepen his comprehension to truly understand their nature, as well as to improve his control over those powers.
"...thus, while I do have a grasp on the essence of it, as you probably felt when I demonstrated it earlier, even if I can activate it, it has almost no effect on anything whatsoever, and I cannot influence the area I cover with it in any way.
In other words, it is currently like a blank slate that I have to fill in with content"
Luo Mingyu finished her explanation, as Gong Cui had a 'Eh? Ah! Of course!' look on her face at the words "as you probably felt", while Wu Long chuckled.
"Is the missing piece sothing I can provide?"
Wu Long then asked, nodding as he understood her impatience, as well as the core of the issue from her explanation.
"Hmm, sort of..."
The purple eyes of the Dao Cultivator that turned back to him beca a bit hesitant as she put a finger on her chin and wryly smiled.
"... in the sense that you already have a connection with soone matching my requirents.
I believe I need to spend so ti in discussions with an outstanding Equilibrium Dao Cultivator"
She finished with a hint of guilt as she knew it was not an easy ask at this particular ti.
"Heh, I see...
Blade Empress, huh?"
Wu Long chuckled, nodding with understanding, as it certainly made sense.
After all, Equilibrium Dao Cultivators were adept at projecting their power outward while pure Dao Cultivators were focused on personal enlightennt.
"Hmm, well, I do need to visit my gardeners soon anyway.
With how rapidly Spiritual Qi improved in the past half a year, the flowers they are taking care of should bloom quite soon, far ahead of the initial schedule...
The only problem is the timing"
He traced his chin in thought.
There was no doubt that Gu Zhen was too absorbed in their confrontation, and as a consequence, leaving the continent now could result in unpredictable, possibly quite catastrophic results.
Not to ntion that the move he made the last ti with the takeover of the Sects was far too emotion-driven and disproportionate as a response to Wu Long's move.
"Let think out the logistics of it, but it definitely is possible.
If not imdiately, then after this is all done with"
He then smiled to Luo Mingyu, whose face brightened up from the previous worry that it was too much trouble, especially considering the current circumstances.
