The Man’s Decree – Chapter 2165

Matthew led the way to Alchemical Sect on the following day. While they were on the way, Matthew recounted the stories of the sects in the hidden realm.

Although there were only nine sects in the hidden realm now, there used to be more of them. However, these people fought and took over each other's clans. Ultimately, only nine were left after the battle, each dominating their lands.

The nine sects might look like they were living harmoniously now without a care about the world as they cultivated, but the truth was the conflict between them never stopped as they all wanted to snatch the others' resources and make them theirs.

Initially, Luminous Sect was one of the more powerful sects. Everything went downhill after Matthew was wounded and left with underlying ailments after his fight with the Demonic Cultivators. Hence, now he could only give resources to Alchemical Sect as tribute in return for the amp pill that would keep him alive. As the days progressed, the capabilities of Luminous Sect dwindled as their resources decreased, to the point where it was now considered the weakest among the nine sects.
