Somewhere in the universe.
In one of the countless galaxies and star systems, on a small planet.
On a chair in the form of an ice throne, in her chambers sat the head of the sect named Kariya. Her sect was not large and consisted exclusively of women. However, strength in the universe is rarely measured by quantity, primarily by quality.
She watched the broadcast of the spiritual web. Gloria was one of those whom she watched and wondered whether to buy her back.
- What a piece of trash.
Watching what is happening with Gloria, the head of the sect frowned slightly, she founded a sect of only women for a reason, and what was happening now, made her make a decision.
She bet on Gloria in the amount of 1.5 million spirit stones, which is a small amount for a sect leader of her caliber, of course, and the likelihood that Gloria will be qualified enough to become a disciple of the sect is also negligible.
Then Kariya thought about this piece of rubbish, she could redeem it as well. Then order to torture him, while giving an incentive to Gloria to become stronger, since this bastard is alive somewhere out there.
However, after thinking a little more, she changed her mind, if she bets on this piece of shit, it will automatically be protected by the game formation, besides, it will only advertise it, and someone, on the contrary, may be interested in it.
Although a million spiritual stones are trifles for her, Gloria still has to prove that she herself is not trash.
She took a look at the top four in the betting rankings and sighed, this is where the stakes are really high. For the highest cultivators, even such amounts is a penny for the sake of a negligible chance of digging a nugget.

In the solar system, outside the planet Earth, a spaceship.
Ra was part of a lower-ranking clan. It may seem that this is a weak clan, but it is worth noting that in the universe not all clans and sects can reach even this level of power.
After finding this 2nd grade planet, the clan planned to carry out a standard colonization process.
However, it was Ra who came out with the initiative and managed to persuade the patriarch to invest in buying a planetary game formation.
This formation cost a lot for their clan, but Ra guaranteed that everything would pay off and he was given a chance.
Firstly, for colonization, it was necessary to infect the planet with spirituality and patiently wait until the living beings on the planet get stronger.
Otherwise, if any mid-rank cultivator steps on the planet and releases his aura, then all living beings will simply be torn apart.
The speed of spiritual development and adaptation is different for all organic and non-organic creatures, it could take too long.
The planetary formation has accelerated this process so that colonization can be completed faster.
Support the creativity of authors by visiting Royal Road for this novel and more.
However, this is only one of the goals, the second and main goal pursued by Ra is broadcasting from this planet to the spiritual network.
In the endless universe, there are many fans to watch such broadcasts and buy creatures that interest them.
But no one will watch the broadcast in which the aborigines of the original planet simply eat, sleep and shit.
So it was necessary to arrange a certain cataclysm and make living creatures fight for their survival, while making the broadcast interesting to watch.
So Ra destroyed about 5 billion people, turning them into zombies using the game formation, it's a bit unfortunate that so many goods were wasted, but this will facilitate the work of the formation and the rest of the natives will be able to express themselves brighter.
There was also a third additional target. The clan had 67 strongest cultivators of the young generation, and it was necessary to decide who would represent the clan on a trip to another galaxy to exchange experiences in 10 years.
For this trip, the strength of the cultivator did not play a decisive role. And the trip itself was not so important that the candidates would tear each other apart for it.
Therefore, the patriarch and the elders gave the go-ahead to Ra to include this selection in the process of the game on the planet.
Ra sent 67 swords to Earth, specially prepared for this event, the swords were previously devoid of spirituality.
These swords were not even considered inferior artifacts, they only had a simple function necessary for the game.
Swords were randomly located throughout the land of the planet, and so that they would not be lost without users, a humanoid vessel was attached to each sword, the purpose of which was to find and kill all living things.
In theory, even the vessels themselves could gradually develop and develop swords, but if they are destroyed and the swords have natives as owners, then even better.
As a result, the swords will gradually gain spirituality and attract each other until there is only one sword left.
Each sword bears the mark of the corresponding younger generation cultivator.
In the universe there is a huge variety of survival games, competitions of different types and the like. So Ra's approach was nothing special.
The planetary game formation also included the function of relaying to the spiritual network, all users of the spiritual network in the universe could watch the broadcast.
Moreover, with the help of the planetary game formation, they could follow directly those who interested them and place bets. When the game is over, the goods will be sent to customers.
The formation itself fixed the stakes, if at least the minimum stake of a million was made on an aborigine, then this aborigine was automatically considered a commodity.
The formation did not allow them to die, if they were threatened with death, then the formation automatically sent them to safety until they were sent to the buyer.
And Ra decided to personally monitor everything outside the planet. To make sure no one interferes with his plans. All the same, the formation cost a lot of money, and he was responsible for it with his head.
Broadcasting from this planet was not so popular on the spiritual network, but it was already bringing good income for the clan.
Ra also shifted his gaze to the Aboriginal stakes table.
The fact that four of them have already been able to obtain certain types of enlightenment, although not even a year has passed, is a rather impressive indicator.
1. Igor 16 years old. Massacre. 3 swords. 480 million spirit stones.
2. Lamai 13 years old. Spiritual enlightenment. 450 million spirit stones.
3. Rachel 14 years old. Space. 440 million spirit stones.
4. Angher 22 years old. Death. 2 swords 170 million spirit stones.
5. Mingzhu 17 years old 2 swords 14 million spirit stones.
86. Cat 1 year 3.5 million spirit stones.
633. Gloria 17 years old 1.5 million spirit stones.
655. Jane 20 years old 1.5 million spirit stones.
Basically, bets are made on relatively young creatures, since it is easiest for them to reveal their potential.
Already, the cost of the game formation has been significantly covered. But not even a year has passed. Ra rubbed his hands in anticipation of his bright future.
The planetary game formation works on the principle of "crutches" for the aborigines, thanks to the formation, they can, despite their insignificant spirituality, use skills and become stronger through murder.
Of course, the variety is limited, moreover, when the formation is removed, all abilities will be lost, but spirituality and enhanced bodies will remain.
