A Demon's Journey

Chapter 457 - Seals



Azaroth was residing at the Sacred Ice Aurora Valley Sect\'s Main Palace. He stayed here for a few reasons.

He organized the creation of a new palace that was a little farther away from the Sacred Ice Aurora Valley Sect\'s Main Palace. The warriors staying in this palace were either close friends or family members of the Sacred Ice Aurora Valley Sect.

It didn\'t matter whether the member was a sect elder or a disciple. All they had to do was submit a request to Tiana.

After verifying their request through Sargan\'s information network, Tiana assigned them to the branch palace of the Sacred Ice Aurora Valley Sect.

Naturally, a proper hierarchy had been created to manage the situation in this branch sect. Thus, another head was appointed for this branch of the Sacred Ice Aurora Valley Sect. And Azaroth also assigned a name to it. It became the Elemental Aurora Valley Sect.

The head of the Elemental Aurora Valley Sect was responsible for developing and managing it. However, the head of this Elemental Aurora Valley Sect didn\'t hold the power to wage war against any faction.

This power rested in Tiana\'s hands. The head of the Elemental Aurora Valley Sect had to contact Tiana and request permission to attack someone. In fact, most of the decisive powers rested in Tiana\'s hands.

It clearly showed that the main sect was the favored sect.

Perhaps a few members of the Elemental Aurora Valley Sect were dissatisfied due to such discrimination.

However, their feelings were placated by the fact that Azaroth had provided many different and rare cultivation skills to the Elemental Aurora Valley Sect. The sheer number of these skills surpassed the techniques available in the Sacred Ice Aurora Valley Sect by tens of times.

Moreover, all of them were rare techniques that could easily be considered a sect\'s secret cultivation technique. However, Azaroth was giving away such precious techniques for free.

Actually, not exactly free. Azaroth did have a condition. He wanted them to imprint a seal on their bodies. Only then were they allowed to stay in the Elemental Aurora Valley Sect and learn his techniques.

Initially, the women were startled to hear this condition. They had no idea about this seal, so they were naturally terrified.

However, they calmed down after hearing that this seal was a miniature array. Its task was to boost their body\'s potential by injecting them with unknown energy.

Unlike the disciples and elders of the Sacred Ice Aurora Valley Sect, whose optimal place of cultivation was the base of the Arctic Summit. The same wasn\'t true for the members of the Elemental Aurora Valley Sect.

They possessed different kinds of elements. Some directly opposed the Icy Aura and significantly slowed their cultivation.

Thus, they were bound to leave this place eventually to look for optimal locations to cultivate.

This seal was their way of recognizing their fellow disciples and elders. Naturally, there were different grades of seals to differentiate between the identities.

In total, there were three grades. Disciple grade, elder grade, and the sect master grade.

Now, this was something Azaroth informed the members of the Elemental Aurora Valley Sect. The true purpose of these seals was to inject them all with a portion of his spirit. It was merely 0.0000001% of his spirit.

Since it was such a minuscule part of his spirit, he couldn\'t assign it complex orders. He gave two orders.

The first order was to feed on the spirit of their user. Naturally, his spirit would only ingest a very small part of someone\'s spirit. It would be so small that the user wouldn\'t even feel it.

In return, his demonic spirit enhanced their body\'s potential significantly.

The second order was to ingest all their Spiritual Energy if they were betraying Azaroth. However, this was a slightly complex order.

His spirit lived deep within the souls of these warriors. These warriors couldn\'t hide the ugly truth from them.

However, Azaroth didn\'t want his spirit to kill these warriors if they habituated even just a tiny bit of dissatisfaction, or thoughts of betrayal against him. That would defeat the point of setting up this Elemental Aurora Valley Sect.

Thus, he devised a system in which, on a scale of 1 to 10, where 1 represented complete loyalty and 10 represented joining the opposing side, if their sentiments reached 7, his spirit dwelling within their souls would consume all of their Spiritual Energy and return to Azaroth.

As a result, Azaroth will be able to get the most out of the Elemental Aurora Valley Sect.

The Sect Master and the elders were injected with a stronger dose of his spirit as compared to the disciples of the Elemental Aurora Valley Sect.

Now, Azaroth knew that he couldn\'t be available at the Elemental Aurora Valley Sect to imprint the members with these seals. He had to create a more efficient method.

And it didn\'t take him long to think of one.

He went back to basics and designed a stamp and inkpad. The stamp was made up of rare wood that could store a spirit temporarily.

Meanwhile, the inkpad was filled with shiny blue ink glowed under the moonlight. Azaroth had injected 1% of his spirit within this ink.

It had been a few weeks since he created the entire system of the Elemental Aurora Valley Sect.

Today was the day the first Sect Mistress of the Elemental Aurora Valley Sect would be elected. Along with the Sect Mistress, her fellow elders would also be assigned.

The first condition, of course, was to have a 4 Star Cultivation.

Out of hundreds of candidates, only 10 individuals passed this condition. Azaroth then took some written tests regarding logical analysis, tactics, and situation evaluation.

Only 3 candidates were chosen from the results of these tests. These three candidates were given a single cultivation technique of a King Grade. They had one week to cultivate it.

The one who improved the most would become the Sect Mistress of the Elemental Aurora Valley Sect.

Azaroth\'s goal had been clear. He wished for the Sect Mistress of the Elemental Aurora Valley Sect to be a sharp thinker who was also skilled in cultivation.

The first Sect Mistress of the Elemental Aurora Valley Sect was Amelia Byrne. She had managed to reach the initial mastery rank of the Mysterious Sun Scripture within just three days.

This was a King Ranked Cultivation technique only because Azaroth had withheld its second part from the Elemental Aurora Valley Sect.

In reality, this was an Emperor Ranked Cultivation Technique. This was a poor attempt of trying to copy the ability of Inheritors of Stars.

Using this technique, the user could cultivate rapidly during the day. However, his cultivation speed would be halved during the night. At noon, the warrior could borrow the sun\'s energy for a few minutes and use it. There were repercussions but nothing too serious.

However, even though this technique possessed such rare abilities, it still could not compare to the natural abilities possessed by the Inheritors of Stars.

The Inheritors of Stars could do all that the warriors cultivating the Mysterious Sun Scripture could do. However, they didn\'t face any drawbacks during the day or night. Their cultivation speed was permanently tens of times faster than an ordinary genius.

And if the warrior was perfectly attuned to his star, his natural abilities would be significantly boosted.

The Inheritors of Stars could also use the Star Force to cure themselves. One of the reasons these Inheritors of Stars were so tough to eliminate had to do with their regenerating abilities.

If an Inheritor of Star still had any life left in them, the star attuned to them would utilize its Star Force to heal them.

This was an automatic process.. There were cases when this Star Force managed to even restart the heart and heal some fatal injuries of a few Inheritors of Stars. In a certain sense, they had been brought back to life!
