Chapter 375: Debate

to have his subordinates help handle trivial matters.

The feeling is simply different.

As Ye Qingxuan reflected in his heart,

Jiang Wen heard Ye Qingxuan's instructions.

He bowed respectfully to Ye Qingxuan once more:

"Yes, City Lord."

Then he turned and left Mount Wanling, preparing to return and carry out this mission.

With hands clasped behind his back, he watched Jiang Wen's departing figure.

Ye Qingxuan fell into deep thought.

The Fortune Cultivation inheritance of the Xuantian Sect cannot be passed on to outsiders.

But he possesses the Earth Immortal inheritance.

It is still possible to help a Fortune Cultivator open a small-scale cave heaven.

To open a path of Fortune Cultivation with a lower threshold and fewer flaws.

The restrictions on contracted Fortune Lands would be relatively fewer.

Moreover, the Earth Immortal inheritance contains more complete secret techniques regarding contracted Fortune Lands.

After advancing to the Cave Void realm, Ye Qingxuan already possessed unimaginable power.

Not long after Jiang Wen left Mount Wanling,

and there would be no restriction on spiritual roots.

For instance, the World Pearl he used when opening the Qingxuan Cave Heaven.

The Fortune Cultivator disciples of the Xuantian Sect

and preferably possess an Earth spiritual root.

Ye Qingxuan already had a clear direction in his heart.

By then, Fortune Cultivators would very likely suffer backlash.

The Fortune Cultivators under Ye Qingxuan's command.

If the cave heaven cannot possess the characteristic of growth,

but to make this cave heaven possess the characteristic of growth, Ye Qingxuan cannot do it for now.

However, Ye Qingxuan, utilizing the secret techniques from the Earth Immortal inheritance,

now only waits for him to slowly practice and gradually perfect its shortcomings.

But the threshold limitations are too great.

For the contracted Fortune Cultivator, the help would only be temporary.

After breaking through to the Cave Void realm in cultivation,

when opening a cave heaven,

apart from this, other aspects are hardly different from the Fortune Cultivators of the Xuantian Sect.

One must contract a Fortune Land before breaking through to the Foundation Establishment realm in cultivation.

One can independently open a growth-capable cave heaven.

But the heavenly treasures and earthly gems capable of opening world types are rare and hard to find.

Even if obtained, Ye Qingxuan would not use them to cultivate the Fortune Cultivators under his command.

Once activated, no operation by Ye Qingxuan is needed.

As long as cultivation does not exceed the Purple Mansion realm, one can contract a Fortune Land.

Utilizing the secret techniques from the Earth Immortal inheritance,

integrate heavenly treasures and earthly gems capable of opening world types.

causing the Fortune Cultivator's cultivation speed to slow by about a hundred times.

As the Fortune Land gradually grows, the balance between the cave heaven and the Fortune Land is broken.

The Earth Immortal inheritance contains a series of inheritances related to Fortune Lands.

Moreover, without opening a cave heaven, only contracting a single Fortune Land,

one will inevitably be dragged down by the Fortune Land in the future.

As for letting the Fortune Cultivators under his command open cave heavens?

Ye Qingxuan currently has no such thought.

Ye Qingxuan prepares to base the future on the Earth Immortal inheritance.

The World Pearl obtained by Ye Qingxuan has secret techniques left by the great expert of the Earth Immortal inheritance on its surface.

Unless.

he can allow the Fortune Cultivators under his command.

The Earth Immortal inheritance, although it can be considered a relatively complete path to Immortality,

all core members within Dongxuan City successively received information related to Fortune Cultivation.

In an instant, numerous core members of Dongxuan City gathered in groups of three or five, discussing heatedly.

All were exchanging thoughts and considering whether to become Fortune Cultivators under the City Lord's command.

After all, the concept of Fortune Cultivation among the cultivators of Dongxuan City is merely a newly emerged idea.

Facing unfamiliar new matters, and moreover, matters concerning one's own path,

even for cultivators, having concerns in one's heart is only to be expected.

"What do you say, how is this Fortune Cultivation? Should we become Fortune Cultivators?"

Inside a certain cave dwelling in Dongxuan City.

Several core members of Dongxuan City gathered together, discussing the recently received matters regarding the Fortune Cultivators.

Seeing someone speak first, the others no longer remained silent, each opening their mouths to discuss:

"What's so good about being a Fortune Cultivator? What's the difference from sitting in prison? I'm not willing to become one."

"But after becoming a Fortune Cultivator, our lifespan can increase directly by a hundred times?"

"But your cultivation speed will also slow down by a hundred times."

"Exactly. Lifespan increases a hundred times, but cultivation speed slows a hundred times; it helps nothing for cultivation at all!"

"But after becoming a Fortune Cultivator, we can rely on the Fortune Land to birth new spiritual roots?"

"Birth new spiritual roots? Is this one of those 'in our lifetime' series?"

"Ugh! True as that may be, after becoming a Fortune Cultivator, one can become the master of a Fortune Land; it sounds quite good."

"Don't be foolish. They say master of a Fortune Land, but what's the difference from a prison warden who cannot leave his cell?"

"Right! If it were truly that good, the City Lord wouldn't let us choose voluntarily?"

"Exactly. If there were hidden benefits to becoming a Fortune Cultivator, it wouldn't be a voluntary choice; they would make us exchange contribution points for Fortune Cultivator slots."

"Now that you mention it, that is indeed the case. Forget it, let's just stay in Dongxuan City and cultivate honestly."

"What you all say has some merit, but I still plan to sign up to become a Fortune Cultivator."

"Huh? Why?"

"Because, old man, my lifespan is nearly gone."

For a moment, silence fell over the cave dwelling; not even a crow cawed.

The discussion on whether to become a Fortune Cultivator

was not limited to just this one cave dwelling.

In other places, many cultivators were also discussing this matter.

All these cultivators were core members of Dongxuan City.

Some chose to become Fortune Cultivators because their lifespan was nearly gone and they did not wish to face death.

Some, with low talent and no hope on the immortal path, chose to become Fortune Cultivators in an attempt to break the deadlock.

Others chose simply because Ye Qingxuan needed them.

Li Yuan and Mu Qingqing, the couple, also exchanged words regarding the Fortune Cultivator matter.

However, the couple had no intention of becoming Fortune Cultivators.

Li Yuan did wish for his son, Li Bin, to become a Fortune Cultivator.

Unfortunately, his son was only an outer member of Dongxuan City.

He did not meet the conditions to become a Fortune Cultivator.

Inside a certain second-rank cave dwelling in Dongxuan City.

Zhang Ergou's eyes were filled with determination.

He was Jiang Yinyin's former little lackey and her playmate from childhood.

Due to insufficient talent, Zhang Ergou's cultivation progress slowed after breaking through the Foundation Establishment realm.

Now, his lifespan was nearly gone.

But he did not want to die; he wished to stay by Jiang Yinyin's side in the future.

So, he decided to become a Fortune Cultivator to seize a sliver of hope for his future.

"As long as I live, there will always be hope."

Zhang Ergou murmured these words, his belief in his eyes growing even firmer.

Although the various restrictions of the Fortune Cultivator path deterred many cultivators,

among the tens of thousands of core members of Dongxuan City,

for various reasons,

three thousand people were ultimately willing to become Fortune Cultivators.

Among these cultivators willing to become Fortune Cultivators,

most were loners who had long since severed all family ties.

That is why they resolutely chose to become Fortune Cultivators.

A small minority were cultivators with low talent, for whom even Foundation Establishment was difficult.

They wished to foolishly use the Fortune Cultivator path to seize a sliver of Dao opportunity.

Although the hope was slim,

for some cultivators who had long lost all hope, it was worth a gamble.

Three days later.

Jiang Wen led the three thousand cultivators willing to become Fortune Cultivators.

They were preparing to head to Mount Wanling.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, they were startled by the sound of thunder above Dongxuan City.

They saw that above Dongxuan City at that moment, lightning flashed and thunder rolled, with clouds and winds gathering.

Within the clouds and winds, thunder and lightning clashed, producing one strange phenomenon after another.

Massive amounts of thunder gathered, held back without releasing.

Seeing this scene, Jiang Wen exclaimed in shock:

"This... this is a Soul Transformation Tribulation? Someone in Dongxuan City is breaking through to the Soul Transformation realm?"

Jiang Wen's words had barely fallen.

As lightning gathered.

Inside a certain shop in Dongxuan City.

A rising aura suddenly erupted, shooting straight into the clouds.
