Chapter 39: The Immortal Dao of the Di Xuan Realm

Before leaving Xuantian Sect.

Ye Qingxuan suddenly remembered that he was not wearing the disciple robes of Xuantian Sect.

Within Xuantian Sect, possessing a disciple token is sufficient; wearing the robes issued by the sect is of little consequence.

However, when walking outside the sect, if one wishes to rely on Xuantian Sect's name for protection, not wearing the sect's robes is not an option.

After all, when others first attack you, they will not check your token first; if you offend them and then reveal the token afterward, it is unknown whether it will be effective.

Therefore, with a mindset of vigilance, Ye Qingxuan found a place and changed into the Xuantian Sect disciple robes first.

To distinguish them, the laboring disciples and outer sect disciples within Xuantian Sect all wear gray robes; inner sect disciples wear cyan robes, core disciples wear red robes, true transmission disciples wear purple robes, and inheritance transmission disciples wear purple-gold robes!

All the robes are embroidered with the unique Xuantian Dao patterns of Xuantian Sect, allowing people to distinguish them at a glance.

Although Ye Qingxuan is a disciple of the Fortune Cultivation Institute with special treatment, according to his cultivation base, he currently counts only as an outer sect disciple.

Therefore, the disciple robes issued to him are also gray.

After changing into the gray Xuantian Sect robes, Ye Qingxuan's temperament declined slightly, but he did not mind these things.

Channeling spiritual power into the gray disciple robes, a transparent barrier instantly activated; feeling the barrier's strength, Ye Qingxuan smiled slightly:

"The effect is not bad!"

The disciple robes issued by Xuantian Sect are themselves equivalent to a medium-grade magic treasure; the activated barrier is sufficient to block three full-power strikes from a Qi Refining Peak cultivator.

After changing clothes, Ye Qingxuan quickly flew on his sword to the teleportation array plaza facing outward from Xuantian Sect.

Back then, it was the family head, Ye Yu Hong, who brought him into Xuantian Sect from this place.

The teleportation plaza was equipped with several provincial-level teleportation arrays, each transporting to one of the major provinces adjacent to Xuanzhou, where Xuantian Sect is located.

To return to the Ye family, Ye Qingxuan needed to first teleport to Xingzhou, adjacent to Xuanzhou, and then pass through the provincial-level teleportation arrays located in the provincial capitals of Xingzhou, Muzhou, and Lizhou to reach Qingzhou, where the Ye family is located.

After scanning the area and confirming the direction of the Xingzhou teleportation array, Ye Qingxuan strode toward the teleportation array for Xingzhou.

But before he had walked far, Ye Qingxuan was stopped by two senior brothers in cyan robes who suddenly appeared:

"Halt! By order of Xuantian Sect, disciples who have not yet achieved Foundation Establishment are not permitted to leave the sect's base of operations without authorization!"

These two did not look very old, appearing merely as young men, but cultivators have methods to preserve their youth, so one cannot judge their cultivation years solely by their appearance.

Seeing the two senior brothers who suddenly blocked him, Ye Qingxuan did not panic; he took out the talisman token given to him by Manager Bai and handed it to the two, saying: "Two senior brothers, this junior brother is a disciple of the Fortune Cultivation Institute; this journey is to return home to bid farewell to my parents and sever my worldly ties!"

Upon hearing this, the two who blocked Ye Qingxuan relaxed slightly; one of them took the talisman token, inspected it, returned it to Ye Qingxuan, and nodded, saying: "May the junior brother have a smooth journey!"

Having spoken, the two vanished from Ye Qingxuan's presence once more.

Although the two were no longer visible, Ye Qingxuan respectfully replied: "Qingxuan thanks the two senior brothers!"

Afterwards, he stepped into the teleportation array leading to Xingzhou, leaving the Xuantian Sect base of operations, the Xuantian Mountain Range, for the first time.

In the teleportation plaza of the provincial capital of Xingzhou.

Ye Qingxuan's figure slowly materialized.

Experiencing this inter-provincial teleportation array again, Ye Qingxuan was no longer as wretched as he had been back then.

His Qi Refining Peak cultivation base was enough for him to control that dizziness.

Walking to the side to ensure he would not obstruct others, Ye Qingxuan looked at the teleportation array behind him and exclaimed with some awe:

"The Di Xuan Realm is truly extraordinary!"

Ye Qingxuan was no longer as ignorant as he had been back then, thinking the existence of such large teleportation arrays was common.

In the years he had spent at Xuantian Sect, the books he read most were historical records concerning the Di Xuan Realm. Teleportation arrays of such ultra-long distance, like provincial-level ones, were unimaginable in the distant ages of the Di Xuan Realm.

Let alone their astonishing stability.

In the very distant ages of the Di Xuan Realm, teleportation arrays not only had short transmission distances but were extremely unstable; mortals without cultivation base who stepped into a teleportation array would inevitably die.

Even in all other aspects of cultivation, it was far inferior to the current Di Xuan Realm.

A single teleportation array, through years of evolution and improvement, not only transmits over increasingly greater distances but has even become stable enough for a mortal without cultivation base to use.

The reason the cultivation civilization of the Di Xuan Realm has flourished without decline for so long, and all trades have made significant breakthroughs,

is inseparable from the stable environment of the Di Xuan Realm.

One can only say that the current prosperous age of the Di Xuan Realm is the result of the joint efforts of cultivators throughout its history.

For a world to sustain prosperity, relying on a single faction is impossible; only when all top-tier factions reach a tacit understanding and jointly establish rules and order can the stable development of the entire world be ensured.

One can only say that the Mahayana cultivators of the Di Xuan Realm are not short-sighted people.

The cultivation world Ye Qingxuan first learned about and understood came from novels in his previous life.

In most cultivation worlds in novels, killing and slaughter are basically the norm; harming heaven to benefit oneself is the mainstream of the cultivation world.

They destroy sects and exterminate clans at the drop of a hat; spiritual veins that cannot be occupied long-term are destructively mined until empty, and the cultivation environment of the entire world becomes worse with each generation.

Such behavior cannot be judged as right or wrong, because the mainstream environment of those worlds is exactly like this, and no individual can change it.

"Perhaps, in the myriad worlds of the heavens, most worlds take harming heaven to benefit oneself as the mainstream of cultivation?"

Ye Qingxuan was momentarily stunned; since learning more about the Di Xuan Realm, Ye Qingxuan felt increasingly fortunate.

Fortunate that he had transmigrated to the Di Xuan Realm, and not some other world.

The current structure of the Di Xuan Realm!

Numerous hegemonic factions suppress all sides and jointly establish order; although they do not interfere in disputes between cultivators, they constrain the scope of conflicts between other factions within their respective territories.

The vast areas between the various hegemonic factions are actually intentionally left as a tacit understanding between the hegemonic factions, to leave a sliver of hope for factions with ambition.

Otherwise, relying on super teleportation array technology, the territories of the five provinces within the Di Xuan Realm could be easily divided up by these hegemonic factions.

Those factions that only seek to preserve their inheritance mostly gather within the territories of the various hegemonic factions, abiding by the competition rules established by the hegemonic factions.

Factions with ambition, pursuing development, mostly exist in the areas reserved between the various hegemonic factions, where they can vigorously develop their own forces.

But all factions in the Di Xuan Realm must abide by the iron law established by the various hegemonic factions: do not destructively mine and destroy spiritual veins of all levels within the Di Xuan Realm; violators will be jointly executed!

This is the basic structure of the current Di Xuan Realm!

Such rules basically greatly reduce harm to the Di Xuan Realm; as long as the various hegemonic factions do not cause chaos, the Di Xuan Realm will basically not fall into great chaos.

Perhaps the rules of the Di Xuan Realm are not the best among the myriad worlds of the heavens.

Yet the Di Xuan Realm has flourished without decline, with the cultivation environment of the entire world surpassing the previous generation; this alone proves the Di Xuan Realm's extraordinariness.

Let the world be the boat, crossing the sea of suffering together!

Even cultivators who ascend and leave the world must repay the world's karmic debts before ascending, providing a contribution to the world's development.

This is the Immortal Dao that Ye Qingxuan seeks! If the world births and nurtures me, yet I must harm it to achieve my own path, how can such a thing be called Immortal? How could the world then flourish without decline, growing ever more prosperous? When the world begins to weaken, it signifies that the Immortal Dao of this realm has also begun to weaken.
