Chaos Devourer System - Chapter 601

Chapter 601: Outer Sect Duties 1
“Those types of duties are one of the luckiest and the best because we are closer to the eyes of the inner sect disciples and might get a chance to be accepted as their intern.

That is the greatest wish of the outer sect disciples: to one day get personally accepted by Inner sect members.

Through that, they will have access to purer amounts of Qi and heavenly laws. Not to mention the occasional guidance on our cultivation.

If one takes good care of an inner sect disciple, like gardening their garden so beautifully or their steed loving the outer sect disciple, then one can get such a chance. It really is the best job, befitting of you. What do you say, Zeras?” Kenji asked him as they stood in place and looked at the bridge which led to the inner sect areas.

Zeras’s listless eyes scanned the large gate as a cold light flashed in his eyes.

‘Becoming a slave for those pompous bastards…’ he thought before turning his gaze back to Kenji.

“Perhaps, I shouldn’t be too hasty. Let’s see the two remaining duties,” he said as Kenji nodded.

“Very well…” he said as they walked past the place and headed deeper and deeper into the sect grounds.

“The second duty is quite the hectic one, and that is handling constructions. Like you see, these various mountains weren’t naturally built like that.

The rooms in them were specially carved by people, and that is another job of outer sect disciples.

The Ten Thousand Transformations Sect is a large planet made with countless mountains and a thick forest. Our job as outer sect disciples is to cut down this forest and also carve homes into the mountains.

It’s our duty to extend life through this revered planet of ours.

With such a duty, even if a thousand disciples are to join today, there will be a cave abode for each of them, and it will be the best place that they had ever seen.” He explained lengthily as Zeras’s eyes flashed.

‘So this place is nothing but a gigantic mountainous planet with a thick forest. The beautiful valleys and flowing streams, they were all the handiwork of the outer sects.

What a smart way.

Instead of expending manpower to take care of everything, they created a new spot called the outer sect disciple. In the end, it’s all nothing but a façade, and what they truly wanted were young capable slaves to help take care of the place. Clever sect…’ Zeras thought to himself.

“But there are two classes to that. Some take care of the mountains and clear forests, while some work in the Elder’s area. They help take care of their house buildings and sometimes help in building new ice castles.

The second is even nicer, as one can enter the eyes of an elder by taking care of their castles.

If one builds a beautiful ice castle, they can gain the eyes of an elder and might be accepted as a disciple.

That’s the biggest wish of us outer sects as becoming an elder apprentice will automatically make you an inner sect disciple.

And there really are some people who have been able to become inner sect disciples by really shocking the elders with their potential.

Those are the guys doing the construction work. What do you think about this one, Zeras?” he asked him as he pointed to another group of outer sect disciples who were all going eastwards, and some southwards.

“Hmmm, not bad at all. But that makes me even more curious about the last job…” he said with a calm smile as Kenji’s eyes furrowed at his question.

“What’s wrong? I thought I heard you say there is a third one?” Zeras asked him as Kenji fidgeted with his nails a little.

“Of course, there is a third job. It’s just that the third one, though a work, is more of a punishment for the outer sects who failed to do their jobs well…” he said as Zeras’s eyebrows wriggled.

“Hmm, that is strange. Tell me more…” he demanded as he wrapped his arm around Kenji’s neck and they continued their walk.

“Ahh, you are the one who forced me. I’ll tell you…” Kenji said as they continued their walk.

“The last job involves taking care of dimensional gates from the underworld…” Kenji began as Zeras’s chest increased by one more beat.

“Actually, it’s the only job that the inner sect disciples possessed: taking care of the swarm of devils that are released into the sect from the dimensional portals.

Fortunately, or unfortunately, a smaller one also opened up in our outer sect area. The area is called the Shadow Oppression Valley. And there it is…” Kenji said, pointing to a faraway area where a gigantic mountain in the shape of a dark warrior holding a gigantic sword could be seen.

Standing before the stone monument were two disciples who, judging from their uniforms, were actually inner sect disciples.

“What do they do in there?” Zeras couldn’t help but ask once more.

“In there, there is a crack in space within our sect. The other side is the otherworld itself, and devils from the underworlds will come to our sect ground using the crack, which we call dimensional rifts.

There are perhaps hundreds of devils behind that gate, but the mountain itself holds a special power that can prevent them from coming in.

Those two inner sect disciples stand guard in case of the devils being able to exit the spell surrounding the valley. That occurs usually when the devils fill up the valley completely.

Then inner sect disciples will have to come and clear the place a little before leaving it once more for like five years to once again fill up.

If I remember well, it has been almost two years now since they last cleared it, meaning three more years before they fill up again.

Still, those otherworlders are true devils, and it is used as a punishment ground for outer sect disciples.”
