Chapter 140: Xianxia Island, Canglan Sea

"Once this cultivation technique is successfully practiced, I can cast the memories obtained by the Demon Seed into the Dream Soul Gu; in this way, the Demon Seed's memories will no longer affect me."

Zhou Sui stroked his chin.

He felt that this cultivation technique and the Dream Soul Gu were simply a perfect match.

It was as if the technique had been custom-made for the Dream Soul Gu, profound and infinite.

If the founder of the Yanmo Sect had obtained the Dream Soul Gu in the past, perhaps they would not have needed to change their cultivation technique.

However, this Demon Summoning Heart Sutra seemed to have only three levels in total, only capable of cultivating up to the Spirit Severing realm.

As for higher-level techniques, there were none; it was in a fragmented state.

But this was completely sufficient.

After all, if he wanted to cultivate to the Spirit Severing realm, he didn't even know what year or month that would be.

"However, if I practice the Demon Summoning Heart Sutra, I fear I will become an enemy of those sects and be treated as a successor of the Yanmo Sect."

"Wait, the Yanmo Sect is a Spirit Severing sect from the Eastern Wasteland Continent."

"The land where the Xianxia Sect is located is actually just an island."

"Wanliu Zhenren, in order to escape the pursuit of the many sects of the Eastern Wasteland Continent, went deep into the Canglan Sea."

"And thus hid on an island in this sea area."

At this moment, Zhou Sui was suddenly taken aback, feeling very shocked.

Because he had obtained the memories of his predecessor, and looking at the information from many Cultivators in Miyun City, the land he was on was very vast, with areas easily spanning tens of thousands of miles.

He felt that this was already a quite massive piece of land.

The Earth from his previous life only had a diameter of twelve thousand kilometers.

But in the eyes of Wanliu Zhenren, this was merely a slightly larger island.

This was truly a bit of a shock to his worldview.

Thinking of this, he went to find Leng Yuexi to ask about the situation in this region.

After all, as the Young Sect Master of the Xianxia Sect, the intelligence she knew was definitely more and clearer than his own.

"Husband, you are right; the place where we are is indeed just an island, named Xianxia Island, with a diameter of 1.2 million kilometers."

Leng Yuexi gave a definitive answer.

"No way, the place where we are is merely an island?"

"How come it sounds like the name of this island is very similar to the Xianxia Sect."

Ji Bingyu, Xia Jingyan, and Mu Ziyan also felt very surprised.

After all, they had not received much inheritance either, and were not very clear about where exactly they were located.

In fact, this was also a very normal thing.

It was just like farmers in ancient times, who only knew about things within a radius of a few dozen miles.

As for things beyond that, they knew nothing at all.

Farmers even thought that the land they were on was infinitely vast, the kind without borders.

For mortals, and even for Cultivators, a diameter of 1.2 million kilometers was a distance that could not be crossed in a lifetime.

In fact, treating this place as a massive continent was also a very normal thing.

"It is normal for them to be similar, because three thousand years ago, our Xianxia Sect ruled this island."

Leng Yuexi said in a deep voice: "Once upon a time, the Xianxia Sect also gave birth to a Nascent Soul Ancestor, who awed all directions, ruled this island, and even spread the power of the Xianxia Sect to other islands."

"So this island was naturally called Xianxia Island and gained the recognition of countless Cultivators; unfortunately, due to a great war three thousand years ago, it affected the entire Xianxia Island."

"The result of this battle was extremely tragic, causing the only Fourth-tier Spirit Vein on the island to collapse, the sect's Nascent Soul Cultivator to fall, and it was no longer possible to give birth to a new Nascent Soul Ancestor."

"Therefore, the power of the Xianxia Sect declined rapidly; by now, the power of the Xianxia Sect is increasingly declining, and it can only stay in one corner and struggle to survive."

She was very helpless.

After all, the Xianxia Sect once had a glorious history, but it still declined rapidly.

By now, the entire million-kilometer area of Xianxia Island has given birth to at least twenty or thirty Jin Dan Powers.

This is like a division among warlords, where no one can do anything to anyone else.

"Why didn't you mention such things before?"

Zhou Sui asked curiously.

"Why would I specifically mention such things? Isn't this common knowledge?"

Leng Yuexi blinked her eyes, looking full of confusion.

"This!"

Zhou Sui was speechless, truly having nothing to say.

For Loose Cultivators like them, this knowledge was simply secret lore; without connections, it was impossible to know.

But for sect Disciples like Leng Yuexi, it was common knowledge.

From the very beginning, the standing of Loose Cultivators and sect Cultivators was different.

"What about the Xuanbao Pavilion? Is this merchant association very powerful?"

Zhou Sui asked curiously; he always felt that the Xuanbao Pavilion he encountered before was very unusual, and even Jin Dan sects seemed to give the Xuanbao Pavilion a certain degree of face.

"Of course it is very powerful; this is a Nascent Soul-level power, with a Nascent Soul Ancestor backing it."

Leng Yuexi nodded: "Of course, the headquarters of the Xuanbao Pavilion is not on Xianxia Island, but in another place in the Canglan Sea; the business of the Xuanbao Pavilion spreads across the Canglan Sea, and almost every major island has a branch of the Xuanbao Pavilion."

"It is precisely because of this that basically every Jin Dan Power will give face to the Xuanbao Pavilion; the consequences of offending a Nascent Soul power are unimaginable."

"So that's how it is."

Zhou Sui nodded; he could be considered to know why the Xuanbao Pavilion was so powerful—it was actually a Nascent Soul power.

No wonder it could walk sideways in this place.

Not many people dared to offend them.

Thinking of this, he could finally set his mind completely at ease; it seemed the Eastern Wasteland Continent was still a very great distance from the Canglan Sea.

Ordinary Cultivators would basically exhaust their entire lives and still be unable to travel from the Eastern Wasteland Continent to the depths of the Canglan Sea.

The reason Wanliu Zhenren was able to reach the Canglan Sea back then,

was by relying on the power of an Ancient Teleportation Array to span an unknown number of tens of thousands of miles.

Only then did he finally arrive at this place.

Therefore, basically no Cultivators in the Canglan Sea should know the name of the Yanmo Sect.

After all, the Yanmo Sect is only famous in the Eastern Wasteland Continent.

As for within the Canglan Sea, not many people know of the existence of the Yanmo Sect.

"Husband, why did you suddenly ask about this matter?"

Leng Yuexi asked curiously.

"It is like this."

Zhou Sui told her everything about Wanliu Zhenren, not intending to hide anything.

"What? That Wanliu Zhenren actually hasn't died yet, and even turned into a remnant soul, merging into an Inheritance Jade Slip?"

"That is truly too insidious. Fortunately, Husband has some methods, otherwise you might have really been backstabbed."

"Is this a Cultivator from the Yanmo Sect of the Eastern Wasteland Continent? The methods of Cultivators from such Deity Transformation sects are bizarre and simply impossible to guard against. Fortunately, Husband was able to see through it in time."

Ji Bingyu, Xia Jingyan, Mu Ziyan, and Leng Yuexi were all given a big fright and hurriedly checked Zhou Sui's body; only after seeing that there was nothing unusual about Zhou Sui did they finally set their minds at ease.
