Translator 549690339

“By the way, have you heard? The sub-academy of Guanxuan Academy in Yu State’s Immortal City is recruiting cultivators to become instructors. The treatment is generous, but at least a Golden Core cultivation base is required.” “What a pity. If we could become instructors at Guanxuan Academy with their backing, our lives wouldn’t be as miserable as they are now.”

As they mentioned ‘Guanxuan Academy,’ these loose cultivators’ faces lit up with admiration and longing.

Han Yi suddenly understood. Over these years, he had gained a basic understanding of the various major forces and sects in the Yu Heng World. Daqin Immortal Country, apart from the lofty Immortal Country itself, also had Four Great Holy Lands, Three Great Academies, and Nine Great Heavenly Sects.

The Holy Lands, Academies, and Heavenly Sects were the top forces in Daqin. The Four Great Holy Lands need no introduction, Creation Gate, Soul Hall, Jiuding Sect, and Luofu Mountain were all extremely special.

And the Nine Great Heavenly Sects were the nine major sects of Daqin Immortal Country. Each of these sects were comparable to the three major sects of Daqian Immortal Country, with Spirit Transformation Experts having appeared within them.

The Three Great Academies were the three academies that were on par with the Nine Great Heavenly Sects in Daqin.

Daqin’s Three Great Academies were Guanxuan Academy, Time Academy, and Preach Academy.

Among them, Time Academy and Preach Academy were unique.

Time Academy recruited too disciples every three years. However, these too disciples were personally selected by instructors from the outside world, which included not only Daqin Immortal Country but the entire Yu Heng World, representing the elite of the elites.

Preach Academy was the most mysterious of the three. Its teachings were not restricted to a fixed location but adopted a preaching style, hence its name. Each instructor could only take on one disciple at a time and would only accept a second student once the current one had graduated.

Guanxuan Academy, among the Three Great Academies, was relatively ordinary and ranked last in strength. However, it was relatively accessible to commoners, and every ten years they would recruit loose cultivators to become instructors. Though the opportunities were limited and difficult to obtain, it was considered one of the best choices for loose cultivators.

However, the recruitment standards for Guanxuan Academy’s instructors were not low. A minimum of a Golden Core cultivation base was required, which prevented 99% of loose cultivators from passing the threshold.

Nevertheless, for loose cultivators, it was a way out.

The Holy Lands, Academies, and Heavenly Sects were the major forces of Daqin Immortal Country. In addition to these sixteen major forces, there were also many Nascent Soul Sects and Nascent Soul clans in Daqin Immortal Country. As the core and the most prosperous immortal country of the Yu Heng World, Daqin Immortal Country had four Ninth-stage Spirit Veins within its territory. There were more than three times as many Spirit Veins of Seventh-order or higher in Daqin compared to Daqian.

And it was these Seventh-order Spirit Veins that could establish major sects like the Southern Dipper Divine Palace and Tai Xu Sect.

That’s also why Daqian Immortal Country was so wary of Daqin Immortal Country.

How can one rest easy with a sleeping tiger by their side?

On the immortal boat.

The other loose cultivators discussed further about other Holy Lands, major sects, and various anecdotes happening in Daqin. Some had made breakthroughs, some sects had gone bankrupt, and some sects were completely wiped out because they offended a passing Daoist master.

Han Yi listened with great interest. In addition to these loose cultivators, however, he also noticed three unapproachable cultivators. The so-called unapproachable could be interpreted as having a slight contempt for loose cultivators.

Han Yi also noticed.

On ordinary days, many loose cultivators would travel this business route. These cultivators made their living by taking on tasks, or they would go to places rumored to have emerged with cave mansions or opportunities, hoping to make some gains. Oftentimes, this was the source of resources for loose cultivators in the cultivation world.

Being a loose cultivator was not easy in the cultivation world. They had to earn every single pill and talisman on their own. If they had a cultivation family behind them, they often had to contribute to the family and travel around in various places.

Among the three seemingly unapproachable cultivators that caught Han Yi’s attention, all were Golden Core stage. The leader was at the Middle Golden Core Stage, followed by two Early-stage Golden Core cultivators.

What caught Han Yi’s attention about these three cultivators was the rare aura of banditry they possessed.

Since boarding the immortal boat, these three Golden Core cultivators sat in a corner, not speaking. However, the occasional disdainful glances they cast at the loose cultivators did not go unnoticed by Han Yi or the other cultivators. However, loose cultivators had their own set of survival skills and naturally wouldn’t react to these glances.

Han Yi shifted his gaze away and continued chatting with the loose cultivators.

Seeing the perfect timing and atmosphere,

He casually brought up the Blood Demon Disaster from seven years ago, wanting to hear if there were any rumors among the loose cultivators.

For Foundation Establishment Cultivators, seven years was a short time, possibly just spent on closed-door cultivation or a single mission.

“The Blood Demon Disaster, that happened seven years ago. It caused a huge uproar, not only in Daqian but also over in Daqin.”

“Luckily, the Sea of Blood receded, and all the surviving Blood Demons returned to it, putting an end to that farce.”

Han Yi showed a solemn expression, “I almost died during that time.”

“I was doing a mission there, and although I didn’t encounter the Blood Demons, I was almost killed by someone else.”

“You know the Xuandan Sect, right? Their leader is really vicious. He showed up and immediately killed Master Blood River. It happened so fast that I only saw a spark, felt a sudden palpitation, closed my eyes, and when I opened them again, Master Blood River was dead.”

“Even the True Monarch, who was Master Blood River’s teacher, couldn’t withstand a single blow from the Xuandan Sect’s leader.”

“These big sects are really ruthless.”

Han Yi shook his head, a looking still frightened.

“By the way, I later heard that the Xuandan Sect mysteriously turned into a land of corpses. With the leader being so powerful, how come he couldn’t protect his own sect?”

“What do you think? It’s strange, isn’t it?”

Han Yi’s expression was slightly puzzled, showing that he had witnessed a True Monarch cultivator’s battle, which indicated his experience and knowledge. It was a typical expression and mood that most loose cultivators showed when discussing topics.

His timing was just right.

As soon as Han Yi’s words fell, a short and thin middle-aged loose cultivator sitting opposite him smiled.

“It’s a coincidence, fellow Daoist. I heard a similar question from a fellow Daoist when I was in Shu Du five years ago.”

“I think his explanation was very reasonable.”

The leader of Xuandan Sect, Yuan Shun, is a great cultivator. He took the sect title to become Xuandan Monarch, and his strength is indeed very strong, even the Liu Su Monarch of Southern Dipper Divine Palace couldn’t withstand his single blow.”

“The reason for Xuandan Monarch’s strength lies in a unique cultivation technique he practiced. This technique came from the Immortal Realm, which is not the Cultivation World but the real world where Immortals exist.”

“This technique is extremely evil and requires severing three corpses. Every time one severs a corpse, their strength greatly increases. It’s because of this that Yuan Shun was able to easily kill Master Blood River in front of Liu Su Monarch, and even the latter couldn’t block his single blow.”

The corpse world on Xuandan Sect’s grounds was caused by Xuandan Monarch severing a corpse. Even he couldn’t control the power of the severed corpse, which turned the entire Xuandan Sect into a land of corpses.”

Seeing the other loose cultivators staring at him intently, the short and thin middle-aged Foundation Establishment loose cultivator smiled faintly. He was quite pleased that his words had attracted everyone’s attention.

“Of course, I have evidence for what I said.”

“If you investigate, you’ll find out that before the Xuandan Sect turned into a land of corpses, all the cultivators and cultivation resources of the sect were moved to the Yuan Beast Mountain, occupying the mountain gate of the exterminated Yuan Beast Sect.”

“And in these years, they have already finished rebuilding.”

“There are no such coincidences in the world. This must be a carefully planned arrangement.”

“This is the evidence I mentioned.”

As the short and thin middle-aged cultivator mentioned ‘Yuan Shun’ and ‘Xuandan Sect’, the three Golden Core cultivators sitting nearby glanced over with a slight change in their expressions.

At that moment, Han Yi noticed this scene and suddenly a thought crossed his mind..
