Chapter 426: The Xuanhuang World After a Hundred Years, an Unprecedented Cultivation

~36 min read 7,192 words

"Why has this world undergone such changes?"

Jin Zhu Daoist took a deep breath, his eyes fixed intently on Zhao Yan, wanting to know exactly what had happened over the past tens of thousands of years.

To tell the truth, this was the flaw of the Bi Jie Mi Jing.

If one stayed inside for too long, one would have no idea what was happening in the outside world.

Especially after tens of thousands of years had passed, the seas had turned into mulberry fields, and countless histories had been erased.

Compared to modern people, they were a group of old antiques from the Ancient Era, completely unable to keep up with the times.

If the Bi Jie Mi Jing could have been opened at any time before, they would have left every once in a while.

In that way, they would naturally have been able to know the changes happening in the outside world at any time.

But precisely because of the great changes in heaven and earth, the gates of the Bi Jie Mi Jing were closed.

Everyone was imprisoned within the Secret Realm.

Therefore, they had no idea what had happened in the outside world.

"It's very simple; the former Immortal Cultivation World, the Ancient Demon World, and the Ancient Demon World have merged into one."

"With the fusion of the three realms, the level of this world has ascended, becoming a Great Thousand World, with an Origin level no lower than the Spirit World."

"I believe you have all sensed it, haven't you? Now, we Transformation God Cultivators possess six thousand years of Longevity."

"The length of our Longevity has increased by a full factor."

"But if it were the previous Immortal Cultivation World, it would have been impossible to achieve this."

Zhao Yan said indifferently.

"This!"

The many Spirit Hidden Sect Transformation God Cultivators were all silent; they had indeed felt the change in their own Longevity. Anything could be fake, but the increase in their own Longevity could not possibly be fake.

They had only stayed in the outside world for a short time, yet they sensed the life energy within their bodies constantly increasing.

It seemed as if they were becoming younger.

This was something that could not be compared to taking any Spirit Medicine for extending life.

"The three realms merged into one? How exactly was this achieved?"

"If the three realms have merged, doesn't that mean that demons and Monster Beasts are running rampant in this world?"

"Can our Human Race withstand the attacks of demons and Monster Beasts?"

Jin Zhu Daoist's expression was very grave; he thought of this point immediately.

The reason the former Immortal Cultivation World could withstand the Ancient Demon World and the Ancient Demon World, besides being able to use the Bi Jie Mi Jing to nurture a large number of Transformation God Cultivators, was most importantly because the time the three realms met was very short.

Once the meeting time ended, the Boundary Gate would disappear completely.

In that way, the Immortal Cultivation World would return to peace.

But if the three realms were to merge, it would mean that the demon race and the Demon Race could kill their way into the Human Race's settlements without any effort, and at that time, the Human Race would have nowhere to escape.

In other words, the current world might very well be a world dominated by the demon race and the Demon Race.

And the Human Race could only linger on in a precarious state, trembling with fear.

"As for that, the Demon Race has already been sealed in the Di Xia Mo Ku."

"As for the demon race, they have now been transformed by us into Spirit Beasts."

"Now, the Xuanhuang World is dominated by our Human Race alone; you don't need to worry about anything."

Zhao Yan waved his hand.

He quite appreciated this Jin Zhu Daoist; it could only be said that the other party was worthy of being an old antique who had lived for many years, although he was as timid as a mouse and had hidden in the Bi Jie Mi Jing to save his life at a critical moment, without any sense of responsibility.

But when it came to wisdom, it was actually quite good.

What?!

Hearing this, Jin Zhu Daoist and the others widened their eyes, dumbfounded. They felt that they had woken up too abruptly and seemed to be having hallucinations.

One must know that the demon race and the Demon Race had threatened the Human Race for at least a million years, had always caused huge threats to the Human Race, and every war resulted in countless deaths and injuries.

Human Race Cultivators had always tried their best to barely hold them back.

But now, the Demon Race had actually been sealed in the Di Xia Mo Ku, and the demon race had been reformed through labor into Spirit Beasts.

Such a future was too incredible.

Even the most daring cultivator of the past would not dare to imagine such a future.

Since when had the Human Race become so fierce?

Boom~~

Before Jin Zhu Daoist and the others could say anything, Zhao Yan waved his hand, and a fierce bird of the Spirit Severing realm immediately flew in the sky above. It landed on the ground instantly, releasing a terrifying aura from its body that swept across this world, making this group of Spirit Hidden Sect Cultivators tremble with fear.

And it was not just this one fierce bird.

Dozens of Spirit Severing Spirit Beasts also appeared all around.

They were distributed in the surroundings, eyeing them covetously, locking onto everyone's presence.

It seemed that as long as they dared to act rashly, they would immediately be completely wiped out by this group of Spirit Beasts, leaving no corpse behind.

"Spirit Severing Spirit Beasts?!"

"What you said just now is actually true? Exactly how many Spirit Severing Spirit Beasts does the Xuanhuang Sect possess?"

Seeing this scene, the pupils of Jin Zhu Daoist and the others contracted.

The doubts in their hearts were swept away.

This mysterious Xuanhuang Sect was simply too fierce; casually bringing out dozens of Spirit Severing Spirit Beasts was too exaggerated.

Even the ancient sects of the past could not do this at all.

Now, their hearts were simply churning with stormy waves.

"As for that, so far, we have tamed at least thirty thousand Spirit Severing Spirit Beasts."

Zhao Yan thought about it carefully.

The reason there were so many Transformation God Spirit Beasts was purely because during this period, the Evergreen Vine would capture some Middle Thousand Worlds from time to time, and then the Transformation God Monster Beasts of those worlds would also be captured and tamed by the Sect Master.

Therefore, these Transformation God Monster Beasts were also all converted and became the guardian Spirit Beasts of the Xuanhuang Sect.

This also caused the strength of the Xuanhuang Sect to increase geometrically.

Of course, besides these Transformation God Spirit Beasts, there were also many Human Transformation Gods from other Middle Thousand Worlds.

Some of these Human Transformation Gods chose to join the Xuanhuang Sect and became Guest Elders.

While others left the Xuanhuang Sect to go to other places to build sects, becoming vassal sects.

In short, during this period, the strength of the Xuanhuang Sect increased geometrically.

Transformation God Cultivators were no longer worth much.

Although one could not say they were seen everywhere, they were no longer as rare as they were in the past.

"This."

Hearing this, the many Spirit Hidden Sect Transformation God Cultivators did not know what to say; over thirty thousand Transformation God Spirit Beasts was truly too exaggerated. Even in the million-year history of the Immortal Cultivation World in the past, it was not certain that over thirty thousand Transformation God Cultivators could have been born.

What exactly was going on with this Xuanhuang Sect, and how exactly did they tame over thirty thousand Transformation God Spirit Beasts?

Due to the overly exaggerated strength of the Xuanhuang Sect, they still found it a bit hard to believe.

They did not know if the kid in front of them was trying to fool them.

Several days later.

After Zhao Yan scraped all the Treasure in this Bi Jie Mi Jing clean, he brought Jin Zhu Daoist and the others back to the Xuanhuang Continent, directly taking the Teleportation Array.

After all, the place where the Spirit Hidden Sect was located was not the Xuanhuang Continent, but the location of another continent.

So, returning to the Xuanhuang Continent still required a certain amount of time.

Fortunately, the Xuanhuang World was now full of Teleportation Arrays, and transportation was very convenient.

Just after coming out of the Teleportation Array, Jin Zhu Daoist and the others widened their eyes; they saw for the first time a large tree in the distance that led directly to the sky, piercing straight into the clouds, with no end in sight.

That was a bright green large tree, as if it were the center of the Xuanhuang Continent.

No matter where one was on the Xuanhuang Continent, one could see this unimaginably huge tree.

Even if one only saw this large tree from afar, one would feel shocked by this great life.

It seemed that it was simply not on the same level as these living beings.

"What, what kind of plant is this?"

Jin Zhu Daoist and the others were completely stunned.

They could be considered knowledgeable and had survived for who knows how many years, but they had never seen such an astonishing tree.

To tell the truth, they now doubted whether they were still in the former Immortal Cultivation World; could it be that they had long since been teleported to another world? The world before their eyes was completely different from the world they were familiar with.

It could be said that it was now completely as if they had arrived in a brand-new world.

Even if someone told them they had already ascended to the Spirit World, they would immediately believe it.

"This is the holy tree of our Xuanhuang Sect, the Evergreen Vine; this is a plant from the Immortal World."

"Legend has it that it can communicate directly with the Immortal World."

"If one climbs up along the tree, one can reach the Immortal World."

Zhao Yan said with a smile.

He was not surprised by the shocked expressions of these old antiques; after all, every person who came to the Xuanhuang Continent for the first time would have such an expression when seeing the Evergreen Vine.

Especially after hundreds of years of development, the current Evergreen Vine seemed to have become even more terrifying, its body becoming even thicker, with countless mysterious Rune flashing on it.

Even countless Immortal Source Qi lingered around the Evergreen Vine.

It seemed that the place where it was located had already turned into a region of the Immortal World.

"Can reach the Immortal World?"

The pupils of Jin Zhu Daoist and the others contracted, and they could not help but feel their hearts beat faster.

If one could really climb directly to the Immortal World through this large tree, then wouldn't there be no need to cultivate painstakingly?

This was simply a shortcut to Tongtian.

"However, don't even think about getting close to that place."

"That place is the forbidden area of our Xuanhuang Sect."

"Except for the Sect Master, no one is allowed to approach that place."

"If anyone approaches, it is basically a dead end."

Zhao Yan said indifferently.

"This."

Hearing this, Jin Zhu Daoist and the others immediately dismissed this thought; according to their cultivation, they were afraid that they would be killed before even getting close to that large tree.

Obviously, such a Divine Tree could not be approached casually; that place must be a forbidden area.

"Why is the Spirit Qi of heaven and earth here so dense?"

Jin Zhu Daoist sensed it carefully; compared to the place they had just come out of, the Spirit Qi of heaven and earth on the Xuanhuang Continent was obviously much denser, at least dozens of times more than other places.

Just having arrived here, they felt endless Spirit Qi of heaven and earth surging over, continuously pouring into their bodies.

If one could cultivate in such a place, one would probably make rapid progress.

This was the first time in their lives they had encountered such a holy land for cultivation.

"Very normal, our Xuanhuang Continent has an Eight-Tier high-grade Spirit Vein, which is basically the most top-tier Spirit Vein in the Xuanhuang World; the Spirit Qi is naturally very dense and cannot be compared to other continents."

Zhao Yan said proudly.

Obviously, as the power of the Evergreen Vine continued to increase, it could also absorb more Spirit Qi of heaven and earth.

It had promoted from the level of a Seven-Tier Spirit Vein to the level of an Eight-Tier high-grade Spirit Vein.

It is basically about the same as the top-tier Spirit Veins in the Spirit World.

Moreover, because the roots of the Evergreen Vine spread throughout the Xuanhuang Continent, this has resulted in the Eighth-Order Spirit Vein enveloping every part of the Xuanhuang Continent, which also makes the concentration of Spirit Qi across the entire continent extremely high.

It can be said that if a Human Cultivator is born on the Xuanhuang Continent, they are basically born with a golden key, equivalent to being in a sacred place for cultivation.

For the Humans staying here, it is not just a matter of their cultivation speed being extremely fast; at the same time, their Spirit Root aptitude will also be extremely high.

In other places, perhaps the majority have Lower Grade Spirit Roots.

But on the Xuanhuang Continent, at the very least they are Middle Grade Spirit Roots, Superior Spiritual Roots, and the probability of even Heavenly Spirit Roots appearing is very high.

This has also led to the aptitude of Human Cultivators on the Xuanhuang Continent being quite astonishing, with an average level higher than that of other continents.

"It is actually an Eighth-Order Spirit Vein; it seems the Xuanhuang World really is no different from the Spirit World anymore."

The pupils of Jin Zhu Daoist and the others contracted.

They could also truly and deeply feel the changes that had occurred in this Immortal Cultivation World, which had already become unrecognizable; if one possesses an Eighth-Order Spirit Vein, it means they have the opportunity to go further.

Perhaps in the future, they could also become Refining Void cultivators, or even Integration Stage cultivators, Great Vehicle Cultivators, and so on.

In short, a path to becoming an immortal seems to have been paved in this world.

"What exactly do you want to do to us?"

"Although we did indeed flee from the battlefield during the wars of the Ancient Era."

"But we have always been Human Cultivators, and we have not done anything bad to the Human Race."

"Regardless of how you put it, we have not committed any major crimes, have we?"

Jin Zhu Daoist said in a deep voice, looking at Zhao Yan.

"That is indeed true; being cowardly is not a crime."

"Back in the Ancient Era, if you had gone to battle, the Immortal Cultivation World would definitely not have been so miserable."

"But it was precisely because of your desertion that the Human Race suffered heavy losses and was almost wiped out."

"If we were to just let you go like this, then how could we face those Human heroes who sacrificed themselves?"

"You should be glad that there is not much Karmic Force on you."

"If you were covered in Karmic Force, you would have been executed long ago and would have had no chance to come to the Xuanhuang Continent."

Zhao Yan said indifferently.

In fact, that group of Transformation God cultivators from the Ancient Era had basically all been finished off by the Sect Master; those who could still survive were no more than one hundred, so one can imagine that few of these old antiques were good people.

However, Heaven has the virtue of cherishing life; for these cultivators without much Karmic Force, the Xuanhuang Sect still intended to give them a chance to turn over a new leaf.

"Since you don't want to kill us, then what do you want to do to us? Do you want to imprison us?"

Jin Zhu Daoist and the others said helplessly.

They had just left one prison, never expecting to arrive at another.

How unfair Heaven is.

"As for that, just imprisoning you would be letting you off too easily."

"You need to undergo labor reform and contribute your efforts to the current Human Race."

"Of course, your crimes are not enough to warrant death; as long as you serve the Xuanhuang Sect for three thousand years, you can leave and regain your freedom."

Zhao Yan said straightforwardly.

What?!

Hearing this, the faces of Jin Zhu Daoist and the others turned green, and they did not know what to say; even for Transformation God cultivators, losing three thousand years of freedom was an incomparably painful loss, equivalent to exhausting the majority of their Longevity.

But one must bow their head when under the eaves.

Several days later.

Xuanhuang Continent, a certain place.

This is a prison where Ancient Era cultivators are located.

Jin Zhu Daoist and the others were precisely being held in this place; besides them, there were dozens or hundreds of other Ancient Era Transformation God cultivators.

Clearly, the Transformation God cultivators here were all acquaintances.

In the Ancient Era, they did not know how many times they had dealt with each other.

"Yo, isn't this Jin Zhu Daoist? You were caught too."

A Transformation God cultivator greeted Jin Zhu Daoist.

"Yin She Lao Guai, I didn't expect you to still be alive. Is the Xuanhuang Sect blind? How can they not see that you are a scoundrel who commits all kinds of evil?" Jin Zhu Daoist said irritably.

He and Yin She Lao Guai could be considered mortal enemies; they had fought countless times in the Ancient Era.

But they were evenly matched, and neither could do anything to the other.

Of course, he also knew that the other party was not a villain who committed all kinds of evil, but purely a bitter cultivator.

Although they did not save mortals, they would not harm mortals either.

In short, there was not much Karmic Force on the other party, so they were able to survive and were merely imprisoned here.

"Hehe, you died, and I still haven't."

"The Xuanhuang Sect can be considered to have a discerning eye, knowing that I am a True Immortal of morality, and they dared not lay a hand on me."

"Otherwise, they would definitely lose Luck and suffer divine retribution."

"I didn't expect your Spirit Hidden Sect to be wiped out in one go; it can be considered the destruction of the entire sect."

Yin She Lao Guai boasted, looking very smug.

"Fart, who told you it was destroyed."

"It is just being temporarily imprisoned here; as long as the sentence ends, we can leave just the same."

Jin Zhu Daoist said through gritted teeth.

Now he had no other way; after all, the Xuanhuang Sect was powerful, and their rules were the rules.

No one can go against anything.

"Alright, alright, we are all in the same boat, why must we be so at each other's throats?"

"If we still wish to advance further in the future, I am afraid you all will need to watch out for and help one another."

"After all, the era is different now; we Transformation God Cultivators are not the strongest in the Xuanhuang World."

"It is said that the Xuanhuang Sect Master, Xuanhuang Ancestor, is about to step into the Integration stage."

A Transformation God Cultivator spoke up, attempting to dissuade Jin Zhu Daoist and Yin She Lao Guai.

His name was Yu Long Dao Ren, a Spirit Transformation Completion Cultivator, and he was considered highly respected among this group of Transformation God old monsters.

So, as soon as he spoke, the two calmed down.

After all, they were not fools; now that they were trapped in prison, if they did not cooperate, it would actually be of no great benefit to anyone, and would only cause everyone to suffer immense losses.

"Yu Long Dao Ren, what exactly have you managed to find out over these past few days?"

"What is the background of that Xuanhuang Sect Master?"

Jin Zhu Daoist could not help but ask.

"Naturally, I have gathered a great deal of information."

"In fact, the time since the Xuanhuang World underwent its transformation is not very long; up until now, it has only been a few hundred years, at most no more than a millennium."

"And the reason the Xuanhuang World has undergone such massive changes, even seeing the fusion of three realms, actually has a great deal to do with Xuanhuang Ancestor; in fact, the changes in this world were all caused by Xuanhuang Ancestor single-handedly."

Yu Long Dao Ren spoke, immediately revealing the intelligence he had gathered.

"What kind of ability does this Xuanhuang Ancestor have? To be able to single-handedly cause the fusion of three realms, this is simply too unbelievable." Jin Zhu Daoist said in disbelief.

He felt that even those Refining Void, Integration stage, or even Great Vehicle Cultivators in the Spirit World could not achieve this, unless it were a True Immortal descending to the mortal world, only then might it be possible.

"It is indeed very unbelievable, but it is not impossible."

"Because this Xuanhuang Ancestor likely obtained a relic of an immortal."

"Only by relying on an immortal's relic could one achieve this."

"I believe you all know that a million years ago, our world itself was just a mortal world, without even methods for immortal cultivation."

"But ever since an immortal descended, they taught the methods of immortal cultivation to the mortals of the world."

"From then on, various immortal arts began to circulate throughout the world, and our major sects were all born from the methods taught by the Immortal World."

"Our major sects all claim to be descendants of immortals and claim to have received the true teachings of immortals."

"They even started a struggle lasting a million years just to compete for the title of having the true teachings of immortals."

"Yet even so, we were unable to find the true treasures left behind by the immortals."

Yu Long Dao Ren said straightforwardly.

He had also collected quite a bit of intelligence regarding the Xuanhuang Sect during this time.

And this information had long been widely circulated.

So he was able to obtain it without any effort at all.

"You mean to say that the immortal relics we worked ourselves to the bone for, causing the deaths of countless cultivators, were found by this Xuanhuang Ancestor?" Hearing this, the many Transformation God Cultivators were filled with envy, jealousy, and hatred, not knowing what else to say.

One must know that in order to find the treasures left behind by immortals, they had basically scoured the entire world, yet they had found nothing. After all, finding treasures left behind by immortals was simply too difficult.

The world was so vast that doing so was like looking for a needle in a haystack.

Many Transformation God Cultivators even simply could not bear it any longer and ascended to the Spirit World.

Yet who could have imagined that after countless years, it would actually be found by a junior cultivator.

The heavens are truly unreasonable.

"That is correct; according to the news spread by the Xuanhuang Sect, that is indeed the case."

"It was precisely after this Xuanhuang Ancestor obtained the immortal relic that their cultivation progressed by leaps and bounds."

"With their own strength, they wiped out the Demon Race, sealed the demon tribes, and unified the Immortal Cultivation World."

"They even named this world the Xuanhuang World."

"Now the Xuanhuang Sect is the Refining Void sect that suppresses the entire world—no, it might soon be an Integration stage sect."

Yu Long Dao Ren said with great emotion.

During the Ancient Era, countless factions wanted to unify the world, but no one could do it.

Who could have imagined that in this current era, a sect would actually appear and unify the entire world.

And there was no faction in the entire world capable of resisting.

Many factions were attached to the Xuanhuang Sect, obeying the orders of the Xuanhuang Sect.

"No way, the world is so vast; even if the Xuanhuang Sect is powerful, it is impossible to unify the entire world."

Someone said with great doubt.

He felt that with the Xuanhuang World being so large, there must be some places the Xuanhuang Sect could not control.

This is what is called being beyond one's reach.

"You underestimate the Xuanhuang Sect."

"The Xuanhuang Sect now controls the resources of the entire world."

"They have built Teleportation Arrays all over the world."

"No matter which corner of the world, one can take a Teleportation Array and arrive in an instant."

"Although the headquarters of the Xuanhuang Sect is on the Xuanhuang Continent, they can go to any part of the world at any time."

"Once a rebellion occurs in a certain place, it will be suppressed immediately."

Yu Long Dao Ren said in a deep voice.

"They can actually build Teleportation Arrays all over the world? Does the Xuanhuang Sect have that many resources?"

Someone could not help but ask.

After all, wanting to build an Ancient Teleportation Array is not such a simple matter; even if one has mastered the corresponding techniques, without the corresponding Array materials, it is still impossible to succeed.

This is the so-called "a clever housewife cannot cook without rice."

Besides this, activating the Teleportation Array also requires Top-grade Spirit Stone.

If there is no Top-grade Spirit Stone to serve as energy, the energy required to start the Teleportation Array each time is extremely vast, so much so that even a super sect cannot mobilize much of it.

"You all are truly underestimating the current Xuanhuang World."

"Ever since the three worlds merged, the level of the entire world has been elevated."

"It is not merely as simple as giving birth to many Six-Tier Spirit Vein, Seven-Tier Spirit Vein, and Eight-Tier Spirit Vein."

"At the same time, it has also given birth to a large number of Spirit Stone Mine and metal ore veins."

"In short, the current Xuanhuang Sect has extremely abundant cultivation resources, just like the golden age of cultivation that began a million years ago."

Yu Long Dao Ren said with great emotion.

He felt that he was currently living in an unprecedented golden age of immortal cultivation, with incomparably abundant resources.

It was simply ridiculously wealthy.

The golden age of cultivation from a million years ago?!

Hearing this, many Transformation God old monsters' eyes immediately lit up, and they were very excited.

They had indeed heard of the golden age of cultivation from a million years ago; at that time, because there were not many Cultivators, many hundred-year Spirit Medicine and Millennium Spirit Herb were everywhere.

One could obtain a large amount of Spirit Medicine and many rare materials just by going to any random place.

However, due to the gradual increase in the number of later Cultivators, they consumed Spirit Medicine crazily.

This also led to the increasingly scarce resources in the Immortal Cultivation World.

If it were truly like the golden age of cultivation from a million years ago, then the benefits to them would be self-evident.

Perhaps they could really break through and ascend to Refining Void, or even Integration.

"What about cultivation techniques? Are there any cultivation techniques above Transformation God?"

Jin Zhu Daoist could not help but ask.

Because even the sects of the Ancient Era at most possessed Transformation God-level cultivation techniques.

As for cultivation techniques above Transformation God, one needed to go to the Spirit World to obtain them.

In other words, their cultivation techniques had basically reached their limit at the Spirit Severing realm.

Originally, they could have ascended to the Spirit World to obtain Refining Void-level cultivation techniques, but now, the world has changed drastically, so what is the point of talking about ascension.

"The Xuanhuang Sect possesses cultivation techniques above Transformation God; it is said that there are at least over a hundred types of cultivation technique inheritances."

"One can cultivate to the Great Vehicle Realm, or even higher realms."

"But if one does not join the Xuanhuang Sect, then one basically cannot obtain cultivation techniques above Transformation God."

Yu Long Dao Ren said in a deep voice.

What?!

Hearing this, everyone's expressions changed; they immediately realized a key problem, which was monopoly.

The current Xuanhuang Sect basically monopolized cultivation techniques above Transformation God.

If one is not a Xuanhuang Sect Cultivator, then there is simply no chance to become a Refining Void Cultivator.

Do not look at how they seem to be at Spirit Transformation Completion now; the gap between Spirit Transformation Completion and Refining Void is simply as vast as heaven and earth, like a natural chasm.

Even in the Spirit World, among many Transformation God Cultivators, those who can eventually become Refining Void are one in a hundred.

In other words, if there are no cultivation techniques above Transformation God, they basically have no hope of advancing.

Even if they really became Refining Void Cultivators, wanting to go further would be an impossible task.

"No wonder the Xuanhuang Sect does not care about the many Transformation God Cultivators at all."

"If there are no cultivation techniques above Transformation God, no matter how powerful the Cultivators of other forces are, it is to no avail."

"They simply cannot threaten the Xuanhuang Sect; this is the monopoly of cultivation techniques."

Someone said with great emotion.

They immediately realized this point.

Of course, perhaps there might be a heaven-defying genius Cultivator who could start from scratch and create a cultivation technique above Refining Void.

But clearly, they were not such Cultivators.

Even if such a Cultivator really created one, at the beginning, it would certainly be full of loopholes and have many flaws, requiring countless generations of Cultivators to iterate before it could possibly create a complete inheritance.

The problem is that they do not wish to be such pioneers.

If the Xuanhuang Sect has cultivation techniques that point directly to the Great Vehicle Realm, then why not go to the Xuanhuang Sect to obtain them?

Of course, they also knew that this was a matter of course.

If they were Xuanhuang Sect Cultivators, they would naturally also monopolize high-level cultivation techniques.

It does not matter if low-level cultivation techniques are practiced freely.

Anyway, this world is not short of Cultivators below Transformation God at all.

As long as no Cultivator above Refining Void is born, then the Xuanhuang Sect cannot be threatened.

If those high-level Cultivators want to go further, they can only seek help from the Xuanhuang Sect.

Or become a member of the Xuanhuang Sect.

Unless someone can go to other worlds to find top-tier cultivation techniques, otherwise, this situation cannot be broken.

"If this is the case, then if we want to go further, we can only ask the Xuanhuang Sect for help."

"The problem is that we are now prisoners; how can we obtain cultivation techniques from the Xuanhuang Sect?"

Jin Zhu Daoist could not help but ask.

To tell the truth, they did not have any deep hatred for the Xuanhuang Sect.

If they could turn hostility into friendship, they would naturally be happy to do so; the fear is only that the other party has no such intention.

In that case, they would just be winking at a blind man.

"As for that, there is no need to worry."

"Although we are prisoners and need to serve the Xuanhuang Sect for three thousand years."

"But to a certain extent, we can also be considered members of the Xuanhuang Sect."

"If we work for the Xuanhuang Sect, it seems there is also corresponding remuneration."

"If we possess sufficient Contribution Points of the Xuanhuang Sect, we can also exchange them for cultivation techniques beyond Refining Void."

Yu Long Dao Ren smiled slightly.

What?!

Once these words were spoken, the eyes of the many Transformation God Cultivators immediately lit up, and they felt incomparably excited.

What they feared most was having no path upward.

If the other party had not blocked the path upward, then they would naturally be full of motivation.

In an era like this, which is a golden age for cultivation, they naturally wanted to advance further.

After all, those three Bi Jie Mi Jing had long been controlled by the Xuanhuang Sect, and it is estimated that they would have no chance to return in the future.

So now, the Longevity they have is decreasing with every bit they use.

In all likelihood, there will be no chance to sneak into the distant future again.

Therefore, they need to advance further to increase their Longevity.

"How can one obtain a large amount of Contribution Points?"

Yin She Lao Guai asked curiously.

He was already impatient to obtain a large amount of Contribution Points and acquire cultivation techniques beyond Refining Void.

To tell the truth, he is already at Spirit Transformation Completion.

If he advances further, he would be a Refining Void Cultivator; at that time, it would not just be as simple as mastering powerful strength, but he would also gain long Longevity.

It is said that Refining Void Cultivators possess at least ten thousand years of lifespan or more.

That would truly be boundless longevity.

"As for this, as far as I know, there are many, many ways to obtain Contribution Points."

"If one understands how to make Talismans, one can help refine Talismans."

"If one's Array Formation is brilliant, one can also help set up Array Formations."

"If one's Alchemy level is good, one can also volunteer to perform Alchemy."

"It is said that they also need cultivators who farm; it just depends on which Spirit-Refining Technique you understand."

Yu Long Dao Ren thought for a moment and stated the many methods he had inquired about for obtaining Contribution Points.

In short, the Xuanhuang World is currently in an era of great development, which can be considered a time when all industries are waiting to flourish.

Whether it is building Teleportation Arrays or the various major cities for Cultivators, they all need a large number of Cultivators to help.

Only in this way can the infrastructure of the entire Xuanhuang World be completed.

That is why Zhou Sui did not want to kill this group of Transformation God old monsters.

Although they come from the Ancient Era, they can also be considered decent labor.

If they help wholeheartedly, they can still save quite a bit of effort.

In any case, these ancient Transformation God Cultivators could not possibly threaten the current Xuanhuang Sect.

The two have long since not been on the same level.

"So that's how it is."

The many Transformation God Cultivators nodded; they could also be considered people who have Mastery of the various arts of cultivation. After all, having had a long time, they naturally also mastered one technique after another.

Even if they cannot be counted as Grandmaster level, compared to those low-level Cultivators, they are naturally far more powerful.

"If one is not proficient in any of them, what should be done?"

"Are there any other ways to obtain Contribution Points?"

Yin She Lao Guai said with some embarrassment.

To tell the truth, he is just a rough man who never learned any of the various arts of cultivation.

To him, the most important thing for a Cultivator is still combat power.

As long as one is powerful enough, one can control a force and let this force earn money for oneself.

And one simply becomes the leader of this force and protects the safety of this force.

In the past, he also did this; there was no need to learn any Spirit-Refining Technique at all, as long as one was proficient in combat.

But who could have imagined that after coming to this era, it seems to have completely changed.

His own powerful combat strength actually has no place to be used.

"This is a bit troublesome now."

"After all, the whole world is now at peace."

"The Demon Race has basically been tamed, and the demon-monsters are sealed in the Di Xia Mo Ku."

"Even if some murder cases or vendettas appear occasionally, it is not our turn to take action."

"So, tasks that require fighting and killing are actually very rare."

A look of difficulty appeared on the face of Yu Long Dao Ren.

What?!

Hearing this, Yin She Lao Guai's face turned green; this was too ridiculous. He had only stayed in the Bi Jie Mi Jing for a few years, and the world had actually become peaceful, with no more need for fighting and killing.

If this is the case, then wouldn't he be unable to ascend to Refining Void for the rest of his life?

He could not endure such a thing; he could not watch his companions advance to Refining Void one by one while he himself remained at a standstill.

Such a feeling was simply too desperate.

"No, that's not right, it seems there are still combat missions."

Suddenly, Yu Long Dao Ren remembered something and spoke up immediately.

"What kind of mission is it exactly?"

Yin She Lao Guai asked impatiently.

The other Transformation God Cultivators also could not help but prick up their ears.

"As for that, didn't I tell you all just now? The Demon race was not actually wiped out; they were merely sealed within the Underground Demon Cave. Even though their leaders were destroyed, a vast number of underground demons still exist."

"If this group of underground demons is left unchecked, then among them, it is possible that a large number of Transformation God demons will be bred, and in the future, Refining Void demons, Integration demons, and so on, might even be born."

"In short, the underground world is still extremely dangerous for the Xuanhuang World. If left ignored, sooner or later the Underground Demon Cave will also develop into a force that threatens the Xuanhuang World."

"It is said that the Underground Demon Cave has now become a world of demons, a paradise for demons."

"Because the Xuanhuang Sect's reach is limited, it has even allowed many cultivators who attempt to resist the Xuanhuang Sect's rule, as well as some demonic cultivators, to hide inside the Underground Demon Cave in order to survive."

Yu Long Dao Ren said.

Do not be fooled by the fact that the Xuanhuang Sect seems to have unified the Xuanhuang World; there are still significant hidden dangers.

In the world, there will always appear some cultivators with poor aptitude; they cannot join the Xuanhuang Sect, but they still wish to attain the Dao and longevity, so naturally, they will seek another path and practice Demonic Cultivation Method.

In this way, they will burn, kill, loot, and slaughter all living things.

It can be said that during this period, one hears from time to time of some cultivators who have entered the demonic path, stirring up bloody storms.

And this is also an unavoidable matter.

Facing the encirclement and suppression by the Xuanhuang Sect, these demonic cultivators naturally will not sit and wait for death.

After thinking it over, their only chance of survival is to enter the Underground Demon Cave.

As long as they hide inside the Underground Demon Cave, then no matter how great the Xuanhuang Sect's power is, it cannot manage this place.

After all, the terrain of the Underground Demon Cave is complex, and a large number of demons live there.

If Xuanhuang Sect cultivators were to go in, it would be difficult to guarantee their own survival.

Over time, once a large number of demonic cultivators commit crimes, they hide inside the Underground Demon Cave and coexist with the demons.

"The Xuanhuang Sect is so powerful, is it really unable to eliminate those demons in the Underground Demon Cave?"

Jin Zhu Daoist frowned.

He had experienced the war against the Demon race, so he naturally knew the terror of the Demon race.

If one does not take advantage of the time when the Demon race is weak to completely annihilate them.

It will not take long for the Demon race to make a comeback, and they might even be more powerful than in the past.

It can be said that the Demon race is always the Human Race's greatest enemy, their greatest hidden danger.

"You think the Xuanhuang Sect doesn't want to do that? But it is simply impossible to do."

"Because the Demon Qi inside the Underground Demon Cave is too dense."

"The deeper the place, the more terrifying the Demon Qi becomes."

"At that point, let alone Transformation God Cultivators, even Refining Void cultivators could be corroded by the Demon Qi and assimilated into demons."

"In the past, the Xuanhuang Sect launched a large-scale attack on the Underground Demon Cave, but when they reached the deepest parts, they still gave up."

"It was precisely because the Demon Qi of the Underground Demon Cave is not suitable for humans to survive in."

"It was only out of necessity that the Demon race was allowed to survive and gain time to recuperate."

Yu Long Dao Ren said in a deep voice.

"Looking at it this way, the Demon race really is impossible to kill off and impossible to exterminate."

Jin Zhu Daoist sighed with emotion.

He also understood why the Xuanhuang Sect could not exterminate the Demon race.

Because the Demon race's territory is uniquely endowed by nature.

For the Human Race, it is a dead zone, but for them, it is like a fish in water.

"It is precisely because of this that the Xuanhuang Sect, every once in a while, will organize numerous cultivators to carry out encirclement and suppression of the demons in the Underground Demon Cave, keeping their demon numbers at a low level."

"In this way, the strength and foundation of the Demon race can be weakened to the greatest extent."

"If such a mission is released, you can also go and participate."

"The more demons you kill, the more Contribution Points you obtain."

Yu Long Dao Ren said.

"So that's how it is."

The eyes of Yin She Lao Guai and the others suddenly lit up; they felt that the mission to clear out the Underground Demon Cave demons was quite good for them, and the speed of obtaining Contribution Points was fast.

In short, in such a golden age of cultivation, they could not miss the opportunities of the era.

One step ahead, every step ahead.
