Chapter 174 Identity Of The Long Academy's Founder
After dealing with the mess in the Star Hall and transferring necessary information to those Revered Constellations in the Pope Palace, Alister and the Star Hall Pope returned to the Hong Clan.
With the Dimensional Mirror, Alister and the Star Hall Pope arrived at the Hong Clan in the blink of an eye. He brought the Star Hall Pope with him to convince those old fossils from the Constellation Palace to submit to his Hong Clan.
So after arriving at the Hong Clan, Alister brought the Star Hall Pope with him to the Clan Hall.
When Hong Feng and those clan elders saw the Star Hall Pope with Alister, they knew that their Supreme One had succeeded in subduing the Star Hall. Of course, that had also surprised the Grand Priest and the Priests from the Constellation Palace who were detained in the Clan Hall.
Since Alister had sealed their cultivation base, the Grand Priest and the Priests were detained in the Clan Hall instead of in the underground dungeon.
Even if the Grand Priest and the Priests managed to somehow break the seal on their cultivation base, Supreme Two was sitting on the clan patriarch's seat while watching every move of the Grand Priest and the Priests.
But as soon as Alister entered the clan hall, Supreme Two which was Avatar 1 immediately integrated back into Alister's body.
With the reunion of the Grand Priest and the Star Hall Pope, Alister permitted the Star Hall Pope to start persuading the Grand Priest and the Priests to become part of the vassal force of the Hong Clan.
At first, it didn't go as smoothly as they expected since the Grand Priest and the Priests who were stubborn with their views didn't want to change their object of worship. But after the relentless persuasion of the Star Hall Pope as well as using the Holy Maiden's freedom as a bargaining chip, the Grand Priest who cared about his granddaughter was no longer stubborn and he accepted Alister's offer.
The Grand Priest was the leader of those Priests so the Grand Priest's decision was also their decision. Because of that, Alister planted his mind bug on them and successfully gained more Revered Constellation powerhouses under his command.
The Grand Priest no longer doubted Alister's claim of killing the avatar of the Star God since the concrete proof of it was none other than the sacrifice of the Star Hall Pope's Star God Avatar star artifact.
Although it had surprised the Grand Priest and the Priests when the Star Hall Pope showed the god-grade Holy Armor star artifact, they had already known that Alister's power was above the Star God's avatar so they no longer questioned it.
Of course, it also surprised Hong Feng and the clan elders since they had never expected that Alister was powerful enough to create god-grade star artifacts and even bestow the star cultivation base of Level 99 Revered Constellation.
After all, Hong Feng's star artifact grade was only at the peak of top-grade. On the other hand, it was very difficult to reach the star cultivation base of Level 99 Revered Constellation since it not only involved talent, opportunity, and hard work but also resources.
Otherwise, there wouldn't be harsh competition between the top forces. One of the main reasons for that was to obtain more resources so that they could become the strongest.
The existence of the Star Hall had prevented those top forces from launching an all-out war while the existence of the Crimson Blood Skull Cult had managed and countered the Star Hall.
Although the Revered Constellation powerhouses of the Crimson Blood Skull Cult were quite low, they were the only top force that had a god as their backer aside from the Star Hall so they were the most suitable to keep the balance and prevent the Star Hall from launching an all-out war.
If not for that reason, the Crimson Blood Skull Cult would have long been destroyed by those top forces due to the Crimson Blood Skull Cult using evil methods to become stronger. But since they were useful, the top forces turned a blind eye to them so that they could continue their role of suppressing the Star Hall.
Of course, the Crimson Blood Skull Cult was also very useful to Alister. He had already planned to use not them but their Blood God for his plans.
Only when he had shown his dominance by defeating the Blood God would those top forces be more honest after he conquered them. After all, in this world, strength was the truth while weakness was a sin.
So after he unsealed the star cultivation bases of the Grand Priest and the Priests, Alister started a meeting with all of them regarding the first top force to conquer.
After all, Alister would have to personally plant the mind bugs and show his prowess in those top forces. Using his avatars to split the work wouldn't do much considering that his mind bug needed the absolute mind superpower. His superpower could either be stored in himself or one of his avatars but not both of them at the same time.
In the end, Alister and the rest of them decided to deal with the Long Academy first. After all, the Long Academy was located between the Zhou Empire and the Ling Empire.
The Long Academy was a neutral force and dealing with them would allow Alister to shift his attention to the Zhou Empire and Ling Empire that were adjacent to the Long Academy.
Of course, there was another reason for taking action against the Long Academy first and that was none other than the Founder of the Long Academy.
The Long Academy was an unusual academy that only accepted star masters with dragon beast-type star artifacts. As long as it was a beast-type star artifact with a dragon bloodline, the Long Academy would accept them. It was all due to the requirements imposed by the Founder of the Long Academy.
As for the identity of the Founder of the Long Academy, it was none other than the Ancient Book Guardian, also known as the Fire Dragon King!
