"When the Pioneer Decree is issued, for every clan that rejoices, ten will grieve."
Bai Xianzhong had never participated in the Black Mountain pioneering, but he had heard the clan elders speak of it in his youth.
But that Foundation Establishment Ancestor from the Chen Family had participated personally—twice, in fact.
So he naturally understood the bloodshed and danger the Pioneer Decree represented.
For every new Cultivation Family that rose, at least several times that number would be ruined and fall.
All Black Mountain Cultivators, whether they were Loose Cultivators or from Cultivation Families, had to obey the Qingfeng Sect's command unconditionally.
It was all done under the righteous banner of opening up new territory and seizing Spirit Veins for the Human Race. Anyone who dared to defy the Pioneer Decree would face the combined wrath of all Black Mountain Cultivators.
Since it was unavoidable, their only choice was to bolster their own strength.
