Divine Replication System

Impressive.    

Though Lin Xuan had merely mentioned it in passing.    

As the sovereign of the entire Dongyuan Continent, Lin Xuan's words could determine the destinies of countless individuals, powers, and warriors.    

His statement had already shown favoritism.    

When the time came to allocate the Devil Cloud Sect's resources, their Canglan Hall would have a significant advantage.    

Lin Xuan's words were not to be taken lightly.    

They might even secure additional resources.    

This would bolster Canglan Hall.    

And possibly cultivate another peak Emperor Level warrior.    

Thus, they wouldn't have to rely on just one peak Emperor Level to struggle through each generation.    

No longer would they languish at the bottom of the six major forces.    

Cang Shuiyue harbored these thoughts with great anticipation.    

"Hall Master, there are also these Shadow Stones, which captured images after the branches of the Devil Cloud Sect were eradicated," said the Martial Puppet, presenting another storage ring.    

It contained a vast array of Shadow Stones.    

Lin Xuan randomly selected a few to examine.    

They depicted scenes of desolation and ruin.    

However, they did capture the insignia of the Devil Cloud Sect's branches and the destruction of the Demon Aura Blood Pools.    

Both elements were critical and not to be overlooked.    

Lin Xuan remained stoic after inspecting a few stones and then set them aside.    

He tossed the storage ring casually onto the table.    

Having effortlessly wiped out the Devil Cloud Sect's headquarters, the branches were inconsequential and posed no threat.    

Eliminating these offshoots was a precaution to avoid future complications.    

It also served to demonstrate to the continent his deep-seated animosity toward the Devil Cloud Sect, preventing any resurgence.    

Nevertheless, he would delegate such minor tasks to his subordinates and the myriad of other factions.    

They had plenty of animosity between them, after all.    

He chose not to probe any further.    

Regarding the Demon Aura Blood Pools of the Devil Cloud Sect's branches.    

The one at the headquarters was large, of high quality, and energetically superior, which is why Tian found it appealing enough to consume.    

The branch pools, while existent, were somewhat lacking.    

It was of no use and seemed rather insignificant, so he simply destroyed it to prevent any future ill intentions from arising.    

"The two missions were completed satisfactorily," Lin Xuan acknowledged with a slight nod before continuing, "Wu Gui, take them and delineate the territories of the Devil Cloud Sect. Only those from the five great halls who are late-period Emperor Level warriors may join the discussion. Once you've devised a plan, Wu Gui will review it first. If there are no issues, then bring it to me for final approval. Return in three hours."    

In essence, they had a mere three hours to negotiate the division of the Devil Cloud Sect's lands and resources.    

"Yes, Hall Master!" Wu Gui and the others responded.    

"Proceed," Lin Xuan instructed, gesturing for them to depart.    

Wu Gui, accompanied by Wei Zhengzhen, Cang Shuiyue, and others, quickly set off. With only three hours to discuss the allocation of the Devil Cloud Sect's territories, resources, and mines, the pressure was on. Thankfully, Lin Xuan's stipulation allowed all late-period Martial Monarch Stage warriors to contribute to the discussion.    

These late-period Martial Monarch Stage warriors from the various halls were all present and had not dispersed, which saved precious time. Moreover, their participation was essential, as they were the sect's administrators and had a clearer understanding of the Devil Cloud Sect's territorial situation than their peak Emperor Level counterparts.    

Historically, these peak Emperor Level individuals were esteemed Ancestors and Grand Elders, enjoying the highest echelons of resources and status while seldom engaging in sect affairs. They would only step forward during special circumstances, moments of crisis for the sect, or when peers of equal standing visited. Their role was often more about deterrence; they were not frequently utilized but were indispensable.    

The actual development of the sect, handling of affairs, and distribution of benefits still depended on those Emperor Level Elders, particularly the Sect Master, Head Elder, and Second Elder in the late period of the Martial Monarch Stage.    

They were responsible for making decisions on significant matters within the sect, determining its developmental direction, and devising strategies to deal with other sects.    

As such, the allocation of resources controlled by the Devil Cloud Sect primarily depended on these late-stage Emperor Level warriors.    

These veterans might not be fully aware of the sect's key spirit stone mines, cities, medicinal fields, and the like.    

Naturally, planning was contingent on these late-stage Emperor Level martial artists, but the final say rested with those at the peak of the Emperor Level.    

They didn't need to be bogged down with details; they just had to ensure that the division of resources among the families was equitable and that their own families weren't at a disadvantage.    

Although Lin Xuan had founded Tianyuan Palace and brought the five major forces under the umbrella of the five great halls,    

since it was a recent establishment without even a headquarters, the various halls operated almost autonomously.    

Wei Zhengzhen and the others hadn't fully aligned themselves with the new structure, still considering themselves the original hall's ancestors and Grand Elders, actively seeking advantages for their respective halls.    

However, Lin Xuan had pointed out the need to take into account that the Canglan Hall hadn't engaged in embezzlement.    

This posed a challenge.    

Ultimately, the decision wasn't up to them but to the Martial Puppet, an outsider, which only added to the complexity.    

Making a decision within three hours was indeed no small feat.    

Meanwhile, Lin Xuan sat in the pavilion at the summit of True Martial Peak.    

Inside the pavilion, he took a seat on a stone bench and, with a sweep of his hand, a multitude of storage rings cascaded onto the stone table.    

These were the gifts previously surrendered by the Martial Puppet, filled with half of the accumulated wealth of various Emperor Level forces.    

With the three hours he had left, Lin Xuan chose not to delve further into the Body Refining Divine Art.    

Instead, he decided to inspect the contents of the storage rings.    

He wasn't looking to verify the adequacy of the savings or to check for embezzlement.    

His aim was to identify any hidden treasures that might be of use to him.    

While the likelihood was slim, the combined wealth of so many forces, ruling over the continent's central prosperous region, could not be underestimated.    

Years of accumulation had given rise to a glimmer of hope. Whether treasures were immediately useful or their secrets eluded him, Lin Xuan could select them. Those not needed at the moment could be set aside, potentially proving invaluable in a Secret Realm environment someday.    

Neglecting these items and hastily selling them upon his return to the Central Essence Continent could lead to missed opportunities. Yet, the task of sorting through them was not overly burdensome. Lin Xuan employed his divine sense to scan the items. If an object was beyond his understanding or its properties—such as material, hardness, pressure, or temperature—exceeded the Martial Monarch Stage, or if it bore any seals, he would set it aside.    

Once the initial assessment was complete, he would have the chance to scrutinize each item in detail. His efficiency was remarkable; he could swiftly evaluate numerous storage rings, identifying those without value in mere moments.
