"Yi Jie, although I'm from the green cloud sect on the North Island, I've stayed in the secular world for so many years that I don't want to meddle in other people's business. Now that I've revealed my identity to you, I'll have to ask about the current situation of the ancient Alliance. Give me a general idea." Lin Yi asked.
"Yes." Xin Yijie wasn't surprised by this. He thought that since the other party was the founder of his green cloud sect on the northern island, he would naturally return to the green cloud sect to take a look after his identity was revealed. It was only natural that he would understand the situation of the ancient Alliance. He asked,"What does martial granduncle want to know?"
"Tell me about the current power structure of the archaic Alliance." Lin Yi said faintly. This was the most basic and most important information. Only by understanding this in detail could he know the true strength of the ancient Alliance, and know himself and his enemy. It would be a reference for future countermeasures.
"Okay, the forces in the ancient martial world can only be divided into two types: sects and families. Among these large and small sects and families, the four great sects and families are the leaders, followed by the ten small sects and families, and then the very ordinary cultivation sects and families." Xin Yijie introduced.
"Oh? How do you differentiate the four big sects and the ten small sects and families from the normal sects and families?" Lin Yi asked.
"Of course, it is divided by the strength of each sect and family. In addition to the most basic number of disciples and strength, the most important criterion to distinguish it is the number of top masters in each sect and family. To put it bluntly, it is actually the number of Yuanying stage old monsters." Xin Yijie continued.
"Tell me in detail." This was the question Lin Yi was most concerned about. It seemed like the strongest in the ancient Alliance was a nascent Soul Master, but he had to hear how many exactly there were.
"Each of the four most powerful sects and families has at least three nascent Soul Stage cultivators. The ten small sects and families, which are ranked second, more or less have one or two nascent Soul Stage cultivators. For example, our North island's Green cloud sect has one nascent Soul Stage cultivator, who is the Grand Elder who is currently in seclusion. That's why we can be one of the ten small sects and families. Without a nascent Soul Stage cultivator, we can only be reduced to an ordinary sect and family." Xin Yijie said.
Lin Yi couldn't help but be surprised. The disciples of the ancient Alliance were only Foundation Stage, and even Xin Yijie was only early golden core. He thought that even if the ancient Alliance had nascent soul cultivators, they would be very few in number.
But according to Xin Yijie, there were at least twenty or thirty of them in the entire Alliance. This number couldn't be compared to the Sky Class islands, but it was much better than what Lin Yi had expected. The ancient Alliance couldn't be underestimated.
Two years ago, a nascent Soul Master was someone Lin Yi had to look up to. Even on the Sky Class Island, they could become an elder of a sect. He didn't think that there would be so many in the ancient Alliance!
"Qingyun school is one of the ten small sects. What's the situation with chongtian school and Xuanji school?" Lin Yi asked.
"The soaring heaven sect has two nascent soul old monsters and is also one of the ten small sects. As for the Xuanji sect, it hasn't been doing too well these two years. The original nascent soul old monster is missing, so it was removed from the ten small sects. Now, it can only be considered an ordinary sect." Xin Yijie sighed.
The three great sects of the northern island were as one. Although there were inevitable open and secret conflicts between them, they would always be able to band together when facing outsiders. Although they could only be listed as one of the ten small sects and families, if the three great sects of the northern island were put together, even the four great sects and families would not dare to underestimate them. Now that the profound secrets sect had declined, it was inevitable that they would feel a chill in their teeth if their lips were to die.
"By the way, there's a question I wanted to ask just now. Why did you add the North Island to the three great sects? could it be that there are other islands in the small Jianghu of the immemorial era?" Lin Yi said, deep in thought.
"Uh, our sect has been called the North Island's Green cloud sect since ancient times. Why would martial granduncle ask this?" Xin Yijie was suspicious, but Lin Yi had just memorized the entire manual for him. He didn't suspect Lin Yi of being a scammer anymore, but he thought that the question was a little weird.
"No, at least at my time, it was still called Qingyun school, and the words 'Beidao' were not added in front." Lin Yi said with a straight face.
He was sure that Xin Yijie didn't know much about the ancient times-things like that were hard to verify, after all, unless the other party could confront their sect's elders who'd survived from the ancient times. Even so, Lin Yi could just make things up, and no one would really care about things like this that weren't related to their core interests.
"This ..." As expected, Xin Yijie was stumped. He shook his head and smiled bitterly."Although I am an elder in the North Island's Green cloud sect, I don't know much about these things. I only know that it has been called the North Island's Green cloud sect since I was informed. However, this is also very normal. After all, from a geographical point of view, our three major sects are located in the North of the small Jianghu in the immemorial era. It is not wrong to say that it is the North Island across the lake. Moreover, the three major sects of the North Island are also affiliated with the cultivation North Alliance."
"Cultivate in the North?" Lin Yi blinked.
"That's right. The immemorial Alliance is just a unified name. It's actually an Alliance formed by five top forces, divided into East, West, South, North, and central. Our three great sects and some other sects and clans belong to the cultivation North Island Alliance, which is called the cultivation North Alliance for short. The snow sword sect and the thousand blade sect belong to the cultivation middle Alliance, the universe sect and the warding off evil sect belong to the cultivation South Alliance, and the other two are the cultivation Southeast Alliance and the cultivation West Alliance." Xin Yijie explained.
"..." Lin Yi was completely speechless. Wasn't this a replica of the five Sky Class islands? other than the details, the overall layout was almost the same. He was even more convinced of his bold guess now that the Sky Class islands and the ancient martial world came from the same womb!
"Martial granduncle, the strength of the five great alliances is determined by the strength of the sects and families under their jurisdiction. However, in addition to this, the five great alliances also have their own exclusive forces. It's just that this disciple is not too clear about these core secrets. Only by joining the Alliance's Elder Council can this disciple grasp these core secrets. With this disciple's current level, it is far from enough." Xin Yijie said, a little embarrassed.
Although it could be said that he, an early jiedan stage expert, was already an elder of the sect, but in the end, he was only one level higher than the strongest core disciple. In terms of elder qualifications, even in the North Island's Qingyun school, he was ranked at the bottom. The Alliance Elder Council and other things were even more distant. (To be continued.)
