"After many years of the war between the Five Sects, it ultimately ended with the siege and destruction of Pingdu Sect, even their Golden Core Ancestor was killed. From then on, the sect's glory faded into history."
"The millennia of heritage and foundations they've accumulated, along with the gains from the Five Elements Secret Realm, were mostly divided up by the Four Major Golden Core Powers, leaving just remnants that still managed to feed quite a few, including our Haihe Association."
Zhang Yao paused silently before slowly opening his mouth:
"After that, did the Celestial Treasure Tower issue the recruitment order for the Five Spirit Roots?"
"No."
Old Peng shook his head, reminisced for a moment, then continued:
"After the war between the Five Sects ended, about twenty years later, one day the Four Major Golden Core Powers summoned all the owners of the Celestial Treasure Tower to jointly discuss issuing the recruitment order."
