After dealing with the families, Sam stayed there for a week and there is nothing bad that happened in that one week. He guessed that the news didn"t reach the Night Demon family or the night demon family really didn"t care too much about a small subordinate family under their wing.
But this time was enough for Sam to move the sect away to the feathered planet and he destroyed the formation at the volcano before he moved there. The headquarters of this sect will be held in the feathered planet as the average strength of the women is higher than that of the average strength of the people in Sam"s city.
Then the sect people are divided according to their cultivation levels and sent to different branches of schools that are suitable for them and adults chose different places to work at.
After this was done, went to meet the Phoenix.
The beast came from higher realms. The realms were far higher and the realms that still didn"t unlock within the divine dimension.
The name of the Phoenix is Fion. He came from the same realm as Yanwu.
He just wanted to see if the bird has a story to tell.
And after hearing it, Sam was not very surprised. He learned that the beasts and cultivators from higher realms would be sent to the lower realms for some training. The phoenix is actually of the next generation of the beasts to that of Yanwu.
Yanwu had to stop his cultivation for fifteen years to stay aligned with Sam"s cultivation, so he is currently on par with the next generation of the beasts in his realm.
Unlike the Golden sun crow race, the Phoenix race is pretty diverse. There are different elemental phoenix races. Like the thunder phoenix, the Ice Phoenix, and the Dark Phoenix which are more prominent ones.
And all these subraces have intense rivalry among them and the fire elemental phoenix race is hated by all as they are the most prominent race of all.
So, every generation when the young beasts are sent to different realms for training, the other younger beasts would be after their tail trying to attack and finish their rivals.
In an attempt to do that, Fion was attacked and that parasite was inserted into his body forcefully. He managed to escape and he snuck into his lower realm.
As for the cultivation of Fion, it turned out to be the Initial stage of Astral Plane Transcendence. But he needs to recover for a few months after the surgery so that he could strengthen the newly constructed meridians to sustain his energy levels.
Then he went to Jwala once again to get her story.
"You are not a complete human are you?"
Sam asked as he took a seat in her new residence.
Jwala who was about to offer him a drink stopped in her tracks and looked at him in surprise.
"Well, I am actually not a human too, and the remaining part gave me pretty good senses particularly identifying the scent of the creatures. I am pretty familiar with human scent and I am sure you are not a complete human. What race and realm are you from?"
Sam continued as he looked at her in silence.
"Does it matter?"
"Of course it matters. I need to know what I am going to face next. Since I already took you in, it is impossible for me to just brush it off. Otherwise, yanwu will be said even if he agreed with my decision. So, if you give me some information, I would be prepared. That is how I survived and grew into what I am today. Preparation."
She slumped into a chair and sighed.
"I am from the Gandharv race. Do you know about them?"
"The subordinates of Hindu Deities and G.o.ds?"
Jwala was surprised.
"You know about factions of G.o.ds?"
"Well, I know about G.o.ds more than most people. Anyway, are you from a Gandharv family?"
"Yes. Gandharvas are a race that is too diverse with too many branches. If we dig deeper there would be a hundred branches at least and I am from one of the lowest-ranked branches. An illegitimate child between a Gandarv and a human.
I had to escape because of some circ.u.mstances."
"What is that? Family pressure?"
"Yeah, something like that. If you don"t mind I would like to not speak about it. Don"t worry. You wouldn"t get into trouble easily. I changed my face, name, and ident.i.ty. In their opinion, I am already dead."
"That slows down some problems. Can you tell me the name of your family?"
"Merene family."
Sam couldn"t help but chuckle.
"It seems like we are bound to clash with your family. But it will be some time. Prepare yourself."
"Clash with my family?"
"Yeah, they have something called a golden horn of illusion that I need."
"You want the family heirloom?" Jwala was stunned.
"I don"t want it. I need it."
"Anyway, as I said it would take some time, so don"t worry too much and by the way, I am not going to be in the realm for a while. I need to go somewhere.
Our next journey is after two months and you can come there with the rest of the team. I would directly come to the destination. Take care."
Sam stayed there for the next two days and left.
He directly went to the Night Demon realm. The realm is named after the family and the whole realm is under their control.
Sam completely changed his attire and went there as a member of the winged race which was convincing because of his new wings.
He even used some disguise techniques to change his face.
He started roaming around the realm for the first month and took a look at all the places the Night Demon family has resources.
After the month is over, he started creating trouble for them. From the information he gathered, the Night demon family is already investigating the case of the Black blood demons.
But they have limited progress.
There is also something else he observed. The presence of undead creatures. Vampires, Ghouls, and Wights are everywhere to be seen and in fact, he came across some familiar faces from the realm of the undead.
This made him understand that the Night Demon realm is the realm that is connected to the realm of the undead and the Night demons are the organization that is recruiting the undead creatures that reached certain cultivation.
After getting a proper idea of what is happening in this place, Sam decided to use the local means to create chaos.
He didn"t want to mess with the family directly and make them alert, rather he decided on making them busy.
Anyway since this place is within his list and it is also under the control of Hel"s subordinates, he doesn"t have to care too much.
His first target is to go after their herb production.
The Night Demons are so into the herb production that a whole planet was dedicated to it.
They produce all kinds of herbs with different elements as they had fields across all twelve planets they have in that realm.
Sam created something with death energy and planted them near the forests where the fields are present.
He didn"t directly attack it. He took over a week to do all that and let the things he planted work on their own.
And for the next week, after his preparations were done, one field after another started being affected by the death energy, and the herb production was halted. The herbs started getting corrupted by the death energy. Their efficacy and the medicinal properties are disappeared and even the forest surrounding the fields started withering.
This something created by the undead waste from the undead realm, which he collected long ago and he combined it with the undying volcanic stone powder a bit and let it corrupt the soil of the whole area.
The Undying volcanic stones he had in his hand are not very useful for him now, so he decided to use a couple of them like this and turned them into powder.
After the herbs are taken care of, Sam decided to go after the mines.
He once again used the stone powder, but this time in a different way.
He created a formation disc with a special ink that contained the stone powder and planted the formation disc deep under the mine.
The formation disc has only one job, to create a concealed formation that slowly sucks the vitality of whoever enters the mine.
He made a bunch of those discs and planted them all in different places in the mines.
Soon miners started getting sick and fainted as they felt their vitality being sucked from their bodies.
The night demons who were already surprised by the sudden herb production loss didn"t expect another blow in the form of the mining hindrance.
Even when the high-level cultivators entered the mine, their vitality is also being slowly sucked. They can survive a bit longer, but they couldn"t identify the problem.
And the first suspicion obviously landed on the undead creatures. Even though they are recruited as subordinates, there are some undead creatures who have high ranks and they obtained them with a lot of effort, in fact, there are a bunch of elders who are vampires, ghouls, and wights.
They are obviously the first suspects as the whole thing is a result of death energy and vitality loss. But they didn"t dare make the a.s.sumption didn"t start pushing blame. At least they knew they are in a crisis and called all the night demons back from across the realms.
