Chapter 1214: Ingratiation
All of the well-known figures from across the Domain of Endless Thunder stared at Nie Tian as he descended from the heavens, their eyes wide with astonishment.
“He helped make a God domain expert!”
“I can’t believe he actually helped make a God domain expert!”
“This is a miracle!”
“This is unprecedented!”
Among them, many Saint domain experts lost their composure. Their hearts pounded so heavily that they might explode.
Even though these experts were either at the early or middle Saint domain, which was lower than Mo Qianfan’s cultivation base, some of their fundamentals were more solid than Mo Qianfan’s.
Besides, since they didn’t practice lightning incantations, they hadn’t been so aggressive with their cultivation.
After all, they didn’t have a natural enemy like Yuan Jiuchuan, the Thunder Devil.
If Nie Tian could help someone like Mo Qianfan break through into the God domain, what about them?
Their foundations were more solid, and they didn’t rush into breakthroughs. Thousands of years later, when the time came for them to seek their breakthrough into the God domain, would they also have Nie Tian’s assistance?
Nie Tian had helped Mo Qianfan enter the God domain. Did this mean that he would be able to help them enter the God domain with the same method?
With these thoughts, all of those who had witnessed Nie Tian charge into the heavens and miraculously help Mo Qianfan stabilize his domain and enter the God domain grew restless.
There were more Saint domain experts throughout the human domains than one could count.
Every advanced human domain had several of them. Some even had more than ten of them. Meanwhile, since the number of human domains was extremely large, the total number of Saint domain experts might exceed a thousand.
However, of so many of them, only about ten would ever have a chance at entering the God domain.
Besides, most of those who did would be members of the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace, the Void Spirit Society, the Heaven Span Pavilion, and the Five Elements Sect, while most of the other Saint domain cultivators would die of old age before they could even attempt to enter the God domain.
Of those who did have a chance at entering the God domain, their success rate would be one in a hundred.
No one or sect could guarantee that they could help a late Saint domain cultivator enter the God domain, not Qu Yi from the Void Spirit Society, not Ji Cang from the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace, not Chu Yuan from the Heaven Span Pavilion.
However, Nie Tian had somehow helped Mo Qianfan enter the God domain right in front of them!
What could be more unbelievable and shocking than this?
Every Saint domain expert from the Domain of Endless Thunder present shouted the question inwardly, their eyes filled with disbelief.
They also knew that once word of this incident spread, who knew how many powerful late Saint domain patriarchs would travel through domains to find Nie Tian.
At that time, what significance would they have?
Mo Qinglei and Mo Li were sensible enough to promise that the Heavenly Thunder Sect and the Mo Clan would answer Nie Tian’s summons and fight for him anytime and anywhere. What about that was unacceptable?
“Young Lord Nie, I’m an elder of the Cao Clan from the Domain of Endless Thunder...”
“I’m the sectmaster of the Heavenly Screen Sect, middle Saint domain. My sincerest greetings to you, Young Lord Nie.”
“I’m the clanmaster of the Luo Clan. My daughter is the most beautiful and talented young woman throughout the Domain of Endless Thunder. I sincerely hope you’ll take a look at her...”
All of a sudden, many Saint domain experts from the Domain of Endless Thunder realized what they should do, and thus scrambled to introduce themselves to Nie Tian regardless of Mo Li’s obstruction, hoping that they would win his attention by doing so.
Nie Tian was dumbstruck.
He had a headache as he glanced around at the crowd of flattering smiling faces, and the charming young women behind them that were embarrassedly sneaking glances at him.
Some of the young women’s cultivation bases were even higher than those of Mu Biqiong and Yin Yanan.
However, since they didn’t have unique treasures like the coexisting flowers and Frost Blood Python inside of them, there wasn’t much about them that was impressive other than their appearances.
Mo Li raised his hands and let out an explosive shout. “Silence!”
In contrast, Mo Qinglei was surprisingly calm and quiet. That was because he gazed skywards and realized that his father’s cultivation base was gradually stabilizing, and that he was refining his transformed domain and deriving a new, deeper enlightenment of lightning power with the help of the Nine Heavens Profound Thunder Divine Formation and the thunder pool in the sky.
Now that his father had entered the God domain, the fate of the Heavenly Thunder Sect, the Mo Clan, and even the entire Domain of Endless Thunder would be completely different.
God domain!
Even the four great sects normally wouldn’t provoke sects protected by God domain experts.
Even though the Heavenly Thunder Sect still couldn’t compete with ancient sects like the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace, their status in the human world would be bound to skyrocket!
The names of the Heavenly Thunder Sect and his father would certainly spread far and wide!
Mo Qinglei couldn’t be more excited. “I can’t believe my father achieved something Zheng Yi, the sectmaster of the lightning element sect, has dreamed about his whole life!”
At this moment, he no longer paid any attention to the crowd’s clamor and ingratiation towards Nie Tian.
All he thought about was the brighter future the Heavenly Thunder Sect and the Mo Clan was bound to have after his father’s breakthrough into the God domain.
After the crowd gradually quieted down, Mo Li turned to Nie Tian and said with a serious expression, “Young Lord Nie, it may still take a while for our clanmaster to stabilize his newly-achieved cultivation base. I suppose you came here so that you can go to the Domain of Primal Yang, right?”
Nie Tian nodded and said, “That’s right.”
“I see.” Mo Li cut to the chase. “If you’re in a hurry, I can arrange for a starship to take you there right away. And all of our experts from my clan and the Heavenly Thunder Sect can escort you. But...”
With these words, he shot a glance skywards and grew hesitant.
“But what?” Nie Tian asked.
“I’m afraid we won’t be able to overpower the Primal Yang Sect if our clanmaster can’t go with us,” Mo Li said without hiding what was worrying him. “Now that our clanmaster has entered the God domain, as long as he stabilizes his cultivation base and joins us on our trip to the Primal Yang Sect, our victory will almost be guaranteed.
“Originally, the cultivation bases and strengths of our clanmaster and the sectmaster of the Primal Yang Sect were well-matched. Now that our clanmaster has entered the God domain, the sectmaster of the Primal Yang Sect will be no match for him. But the problem is that our clanmaster still needs some time to stabilize his cultivation base.”
After pausing for a few seconds, Mo Li suggested with a sincere expression, “The way I see it, you can summon Xie Qian and your other Saint domain subordinates.
“With their help, we’ll surely be able to overpower the Primal Yang Sect and make them obey. I think it’ll be safer this way. What do you think?”
Hearing this, the others approved of his suggestion.
They all said that if Nie Tian wasn’t in a hurry, he should wait for Mo Qianfan to stabilize his cultivation base, and then pressure the Primal Yang Sect into submitting under his God domain power.
If Nie Tian was in a hurry, then he should summon his Saint domain subordinates to the Domain of Endless Thunder. Together with the experts from the Heavenly Thunder Sect, the Mo Clan, and the other local forces, they would be strong enough to pressure the Primal Yang Sect into releasing Fang Yuan and resuming their status as a law-abiding subordinate domain of the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace.
Whether it was Mo Li or the others, they all said this out of goodwill.
“How long do you think it’ll take for him to stabilize his cultivation base?” Nie Tian asked, looking skywards.
“It’s hard to say.” Mo Li couldn’t give him an exact time. “It varies between different cultivators. Some can stabilize their cultivations base ten days after they break through into the God domain, while others have to spend years, or even decades.”
Nie Tian frowned and muttered, “So the time needed can’t be determined...”
The purpose of his trip to the Domain of Endless Thunder had been to ask the late Saint domain Mo Qianfan to join him. In exchange, he would give him that Profound Truths Crystal. However, he had happened to arrive when Mo Qianfan had been in the middle of a rash attempt to enter the God domain, which had been motivated by the Thunder Devil’s recent triumph.
Now, even though Mo Qianfan’s breakthrough had succeeded, he had lost the ability to fight within a short period of time.
Considering that the Primal Yang Sect had been able to imprison Fang Yuan and his subordinates, he would probably suffer the same result if he marched over there without making adequate preparations.
Having recently defeated Patriarch Pure Heaven, he was confident that he was now strong enough to contend against and even defeat an early Saint domain expert.
However, what about multiple middle and late Saint domain experts?
The Primal Yang Sect had overpowered Fang Yuan and all of his Saint domain subordinates.
After pondering for a while, Nie Tian made his decision. “I’ll wait ten days in the Heavenly Thunder Sect’s headquarters. If Sectmaster Mo’s cultivation base still doesn’t stabilize, then I’ll summon Master Blood Spirit and Xie Qian, along with all of my other Saint domain subordinates, to this place.”
“Ten days seems a bit short...” Mo Li said honestly.
“Perhaps,” Nie Tian said with a profound look in his eyes. “But Sectmaster Mo has something unique to rely on now. As long as he can derive enlightenment from the profound mysteries it carries, the stabilization of his cultivation base will finish quickly. If he can do that, I believe he’ll be able to stabilize his domain and form his dharma idol in ten days.
“Once his dharma idol forms, it’ll mean that he’ll be able to display the might of a God domain expert in battles.”
These words lifted Mo Li’s spirit. He agreed. “Okay, let’s wait ten days and see.”
