Chapter 1372: Chapter 1372 the Strange House

The moment the voice was heard, Wang Baole suddenly turned his head and looked coldly behind him. In his eyes, an illusory figure slowly materialized at the entrance of the cave abode.
The figure was a woman. She was dressed luxuriously and had no expression on her face. The light in her eyes didn’t seem to be very lively. With Wang Baole’s attainments in artifact refinement, it was almost the first time he had seen her, we already know who we’re dealing with.
Spirit!
The woman was indeed not a real person. She was the artifact spirit of the chord sect’s grand array formation. As the words left her mouth, the artifact spirit waved its hand, and a storage bag flew out and landed in front of Wang Baole.
“This is what an entry-level disciple of the chord sect should have. Leave a mark on the identity token and you can enter and exit this place.”After calmly saying these words, the body of the spirit gradually blurred and disappeared.
!!
Wang Baole didn’t say a single word from the beginning to the end. He frowned slightly. He felt that the chord sect was very strange. His arrival hadn’t been checked at all.
To Wang Baole’s knowledge of the other sects, this didn’t make sense.
After a moment of thought, Wang Baole picked up his storage bag and examined it carefully. After confirming that it was very ordinary, he opened it. There were three items inside.
A black and white robe, a jade slip, and a crystal token.
He scanned the three items. Wang Baole first picked up the jade slip and flipped it around in his hand. He narrowed his eyes and sent his divine thoughts in. In the next moment, a large amount of information flowed into Wang Baole’s mind like water.
Time passed slowly. There was too much information. Even Wang Baole took half an incense stick to fully comprehend everything inside. When he retracted his divine thoughts and put down the jade slip, a dark glow appeared in Wang Baole’s eyes.
I see
The information in the jade slip cleared Wang Baole’s doubts. This volcano was indeed the headquarters of the chord sect. The number of the chord sect disciples wasn’t very large, only less than ten thousand, most of these people rarely communicated with each other. They either traveled outside to seek inspiration for music, or they spent years in seclusion within the headquarters to create their own music.
That was why the entire mountain gate looked so empty. After all, this was where the night was. Even though the light from the volcano isolated the dangers in the outside world, as long as they left the range of the fire.., not everyone was like Wang Baole, who was qualified to devour those strange things.
At the same time, although there were mortals here who were like music servants, their strength determined that they could only live in their cave abodes. Once they walked out, even though the light from the volcano isolated the dangers outside, there were even more dangerous things, they would often come from within the mountain gates.
The cultivators here were all people with a certain level of strength. The sounds they made when creating their own music were mostly lethal.
Therefore, to the music servants, the cave abodes were the safest place.
Furthermore, the chord sect didn’t have many sect rules. Overall, it was very loose. Wang Baole’s initial doubts had also been answered. For the chord sect, there was no need to take the test, nor was there a need to take the test.
That was because… condensing the notes that belonged to the chord sect was already part of the test. To be able to come all the way from the dark night to the chord sect and not die on the way was also a test.
With all that, those who reached the chord sect’s mountain gate were already chord sect disciples.
“Strange Sect…”Wang Baole narrowed his eyes. Other than answering Wang Baole’s doubts, the jade slip also contained cultivation techniques that belonged to the chord sect.
Different from the cultivation techniques given by the other sects, the cultivation techniques of the chord sect were actually one of a kind.
This technique was called nourishing sound.
As the name implied, it was to nurture the existing musical notes, keeping them in a state of fullness at all times, allowing them to produce the greatest amount of sound. As for other cultivation techniques, they did not exist.
Everything required one to comprehend and obtain from all things, until they formed their own music. As for the final outcome of the music, even though cultivators had a direction, everything depended on luck. Therefore, comprehension was especially important here.
To use the words of the federation to describe this place… is it a group of composers who can perform on their own? Wang Baole thought of this term. He felt that it was a perfect match for the chord sect cultivators.
However, unlike the composers in the Federation, the composers had mastered all the musical notes. They needed inspiration, and their musical notes were produced using instrumental music.
As for the cultivators of the chord sect, they needed to try their luck and obtain the sound of all things. And in the sound of all things, it wasn’t just ordinary musical notes, like the sound of thunder, the sound of rain, and so on. It was the sound of all things, and what the cultivators of the chord sect needed to do.., was to turn these sounds that they had comprehended into their own laws.
The former was created through the musical notes that they had grasped, while the latter was mostly created using the few sounds of all things that they had comprehended.
The former was played through other methods, while the latter was created through the use of music.
At the same time, in this world, music scores were extremely precious. It could even be said that music scores were the way of listening to the cultivators of desire city.
However, the music scores here weren’t just ordinary music scores created by the composers of the Federation. The sounds of all creation determined the contents of the music scores, which were ever-changing.
The unique characteristic of the chord sect was that it possessed the power of lyrics.
This was slightly different from the other two great sects.
Through the Jade Slip, Wang Baole had a simple understanding of the gist of the Hengqin sect. The cultivators of this sect focused on killing, and their voices were mostly sharp and long. They were famous for their ancient songs, and they had almost no lyrics.
As for the Dao of music… it was the most mysterious sect among the three sects. There were very few cultivators from this sect, and it was considered the core. As for the specifics, the jade slip didn’t say much.
Wang Baole sorted out what he knew in his mind. He thought for a moment, then picked up the crystal token. Without hesitation, he branded his own divine thoughts on it.
As he branded his divine thoughts, the crystal flashed a few times before slowly returning to normal. However, Wang Baole, who held the token, could clearly feel that with a single thought, he could leave the mountain gate with the token in his hand. He could also do so with a single thought.., he used the token to return to the mountain gate.
A fixed teleportation token, huh. Wang Baole played with it for a while before putting it away. Then, he put on the black and white long robes of the chord sect and walked out of the cave abode.
He wanted to observe the chord sect for a while. The moment he walked out, he heard waves of sorrowful sounds. The sounds pierced through his soul, causing Wang Baole to stop in his tracks. When he raised his head, he saw a figure not too far away, there was a figure covered in blood and tied to a large number of metal chains. He was walking slowly towards the peak of the mountain.
Wherever he passed, the sorrowful voice filled the air, causing many cave abodes on the volcano to tremble.
