The Tenebrous Conclave occupied a vast Realm System in the Empyrean Plane, being one of its powerful forces that actually preferred to move more under the radar.
The Conclave was led under the control of a mysterious Existence that controlled multiple Dao Dimensional Rifts, with multiple powerful Grand Elders at the QUASAR Realm taking care of the vast regions that this Conclave controlled.
At this moment in time, the daughter of Grand Elder Shadow had finished her trial in an exemplary manner in the Sublunary Plane as she returned and was crowned a Young Saintess soon after!
She entered the ranks of Saintesses and Saints that were groomed by the Tenebrous Conclave to become experts that could support and maintain the dignity of the Conclave for the years to come.
Those with the ranks of Saints and Saintesses had special privileges within the Conclaves of the Empyrean Plane, with them having access to the vast reserves of loot from their Conclaves that they could only obtain through trading with Contribution Points!
To get these Contributions Points, a Saint or Saintess had to submit a myriad of loot into their Conclaves, and they would then use the Contribution Points they accumulated to claim many wondrous treasures.
The most prized ones and the Treasures that most Saints and Saintesses worked for were Dao Weapons that contained the essence of specific Daos, as well as Dao Crystals that one could use to gain Comprehension in specific Daos!
Powerful Conclaves like the Tenebrous Conclave were extremely sought after as their experts controlled regions that had many different Dao Dimensional Rifts, and their Treasure Troves that disciples could choose from had many fantastical Dao Crystals and Dao Weapons.
Aside from these, one could also use their Contribution Points to exchange for Universal Law Crystals of nearly all of the Laws, as well as...the Cores of the Realms of Power!
If one obtained enough Contribution Points from submitting enough Loot into their Conclaves, an Existence from the STAR Rank would even be capable of obtaining NEBULA Rank Cores, or the prized BLACK HOLE Cores that only the Elders of the Conclaves enjoyed.
This was the reality of the fantastical Empyrean Dimensional Plane. Vast clusters of powers that controlled unique Dimensional Rifts and ruled their regions how they wished, with their disciples having to explore powerful Dimensional Rifts in the Empyrean Plane or even visit other Dimensional Planes to obtain the loot they could turn in for Contribution Points.
Many opted for the Abyssal Plane missions that allowed them to hunt Abyssal Fiends and bring back the Loot they obtained there, some would visit the Rifts their Conclaves controlled, and some wanted even safer environments as they would even choose lower Planes like the Sublunary Plane and farm its low tier Dimensional Rifts over the years while acting as Dimensional Rulers!
"You just returned from the Sublunary Plane, so I don't expect you to have obtained enormous amounts of treasures to turn in for Contribution Points. But as your father...I will be here to watch you obtain your first set of Contribution Points, no matter how small they are."
WAA!
Deep within the Tenebrous Conclave, in a certain Realm that was under the control of Grand Elder Shadow.
This QUASAR Rank expert looked at his daughter, Catherine, as the two of them stood in front of a smiling Grand Elder that was guarding an enormous golden door!
This enormous golden door was one of the many entrance points for the Treasure Trove of the Tenebrous Conclave, with Saints and Saintesses being capable of turning in their Loot here to obtain contribution points that they could then use to take whatever they wished for.
Catherine had a mischievous expression as she thought about her father's words.
A small amount of contribution points? That might have been so if she had finished her trial alone and hadn't met a special someone.
But now?
WAA!
Waves of mana emanated from her hands as she began to take out the myriad of loot she held in her Storage Rings, putting all of this loot before the Grand Elder and her father!
At first, the expressions of these two grand elders were calm as they only nodded with praise when they saw the small mountain of Universal Law Crystals and STAR Rank Cores that Catherine was releasing.
But their gazes gradually changed as when Catherine finished emptying out one storage ring and creating a small mountain of loot, another storage ring lit up as she began to pour out the contents of this one as well.
…!
Another mountain of loot formed beside the first one.
Then, with a smiling expression, Catherine went on to pour out ten more mountains of Universal Law Crystals of many different types of laws and Star Rank Cores, the number being something that even her father was looking at in a stupor!
The Grand Elder in charge of counting the turned in loot and assigning Contribution Points came out of his stupor as he waved his hands and released mana that covered the laid out mountains, beginning to count thereafter with a surprised expression.
"5,000 Universal Law Crystals...15,000...38,000!"
He counted the number of Law Crystals and Cores as it came up to a staggering amount that was enough to allow a being to fully assimilate multiple Laws, his gaze when he looked at Catherine flashing with a bright light as he waved his hands and caused the mountains of loot to disappear, voicing out majestically thereafter.
"Young Saintess Catherine...you've gained 23,000 Contribution Points on your return from the Sublunary Plane!"
RUMBLE!
The number of Contribution Points was listed as even her Father was in a stupor, this powerful being turning towards her as he asked quizzically
"You...you did go to the barren Sublunary Plane that only has Rifts up to the Star Rank, right?"
The father looked towards his daughter that flashed him a smile, this smile containing hidden meanings as it kept the secret of where she got all this loot from!
She kept secret of the deal she made with a certain being that had actually risen to the top of the Sublunary Plane and currently ruled over it, her gaze only looking towards the Grand Elder in charge of the Treasure Vault as she voiced out.
"How many Dao Crystals can I get with this many Contribution Points?"
…!
The Young Saintess Catherine returned with a bang in her Tenebrous Conclave as she carried with her a deal that would carry immense benefits not just for her Conclave...but for her and the being that backed her funds in a certain Plane.
This...was the method that Noah had devised and discussed with Catherine!
As he obtained an endless amount of loot from his Idle Gaming System, he planned to use Catherine and the many disciples he now had as his Subjugated Blessed to trade his endless Universal Law Crystals and Cores for other types of Law Crystals, high ranking Cores to advance his strength, and the treasured Dao Crystals that others only sought after!
