Translator: 549690339

Daqian Immortal Country occupies two of the Nine States in the world, Qianzhou and Shu State, making it one of the strongest Immortal Path forces in the world.

In Shu State, there are thirteen counties in total.contemporary romance

Gushu, Gaoyuan, Taihe, Xinghai, Guxi, Sanyuan, Nanyang, Luofeng, Taibai, Jiangzhou, Huaibei, Andu, and Lingfu.

Gushu is the center of Shu State.

South of Gushu, the Xuandan Sect occupies the Xuandan Mountain Range, which spans across Nanyang, Luofeng, and Taibai counties. The core power of the Xuandan Sect relies on the Xuandan Mountain Range, with its main forces in Nanyang and some scattered in Luofeng and Taibai.

In the east, Luofeng County has the Golden Core Sect, Yuan Beast Sect.

In the west, Taibai County has the Golden Core Sect, Blood God Sect.

Taibai County has vast territory and numerous cities.

Tianqing City is one of them.

It is located at the border between the influences of the Blood God Sect and the Xuandan Sect. While it may not be large, it holds a significant importance due to the existence of a mineral vein outside the city that produces a mineral called Blood Flame Crystal.

This mineral is primarily used for refining tools, particularly high-quality pill furnaces, which require the addition of Blood Flame Crystals.

In short, it is an expensive and strategically important resource.

The Xuandan Sect competes fiercely for this land.

Outside Tianqing City-

A huge flying divine warship suddenly appeared, quickly coming to a stop from its extreme speed, in just a short moment.

Then*

Over a hundred people were released from the divine warship and landed safely on the ground.

The divine warship shook slightly and started again, silently turning into a stream of light and vanishing in an instant.

Among the hundred people released from the divine warship was Han Yi.

“Alright, today we’ll be stationed in Tianqing City. Everyone is divided into ten teams according to the previous arrangements, and you’ll follow the orders.” “Lets go!!”

Of the over one hundred people stationed in Tianqing City, the leader was an early-stage Foundation Establishment elder from the inner gate surnamed Gu, called Gu Yu.

Among the ten teams he divided, the captains of the first three teams were all at the ninth level of Qi Cultivation, while the captains of the other teams had the strength of the eighth level of Qi Cultivation.

They seemed to have mediocre strength, especially when facing off against rhe Blood God Sect.

However, it should be noted that these one hundred people were sent as supplementary forces, stationed in Tianqing City.

There are stronger forces stationed at the Blood Flame vein outside Tianqing City, which is the main force.

Moreover, this time the Xuandan Sect’s battle line is stretched long, preparing to resist the invasion of the Blood God Sect comprehensively.

In Taibai County, more than a dozen mineral veins and mines belonging to the Xuandan Sect have been occupied by teams of cultivators.

In addition, backup forces have been sent to the cities closest to the mines to supplement combat power and to prevent the Blood God Sect from cutting off the Xuandan Sect’s supply lines and escape routes.

Filled with worry as he followed the team into Tianqing City, Han Yi could sense the prelude to an all-out war.

But he was also grateful that he had not been assigned to the mines, where conflicts and battles were more likely to break our.

Strictly speaking, Tianqing City should be considered a second-line, not a front-line battlefield this was a fortunate escape amid misfortune.

What Han Yi found strange was-

The process of entering Tianqing City went unexpectedly smoothly, with no interference from Daqian officials or any other accidents, which eased Han Yi’s tense nerves.

However, there was a suffocating and turbulent atmosphere in Tianqing City. Cultivators occasionally showed up on both sides of the streets and the shops, revealing serious expressions. As for ordinary people, they had already gone into hiding.

According to Daqian Law, it was a capital crime for cultivators to slaughter ordinary people, but if ordinary people offended and were lulled by cultivators, it was considered their own fault.

As the impending battle between the Blood God Sect and the Xuandan Sect approached and the attitude of the Daqian officials remained unclear, ordinary people naturally chose to stay as far away as possible from the conflict.

During this time, many mortals have already moved away from the cities on the battlefront in Taibai County to other places to avoid the war between cultivators.

Tianqing City, Xuandan Sect’s temporary base.

Before Han Yi could settle down, he was called into a room to discuss matters. The one who called for the meeting was the leader of his team.

The leader was named Lu Su, an inner peak disciple in his thirties with a cultivation base at the eighth level of Qi Refining.

Apart from Lu Su, rhe team also included four cultivators at the seventh level of Qi Refining and five cultivators at the sixth level.

As a cultivator at the sixth level of Qi Refining, Han Yi didn’t stand our among the group.

“Brother Lu, can you be more specific about our mission?1‘ asked a fellow cultivator at the seventh level of Qi Refining.

Lu Su shook his head: “No, Elder Gu said we just need to stand by and follow orders.”

“But isn’t this too torturous? Why aren’t we taking the initiative to attack instead of passively defending?”

Another cultivator at the seventh level of Qi Refining with a seemingly hot-tempered demeanor spoke in a deep voice, discontent in his tone.

“I don’t know either, rhe sect has its considerations. All we need to do is follow orders, and we must never act on our own, risking interfering with the sect s plans.”

The tone of Lu Su became slightly more serious.

He reached out his hand and pressed it forward, signaling everyone to calm down.

“At this point, everyone must be fully alert, do not go out, do not engage in deep cultivation, always be aware of the situation outside and be vigilant against enemies.”

“If you have any questions, feel free to bring them up.”

“Let me remind you, if you violate the rules, you will be dealt with according to sect laws without leniency. Remember that.”

“Alright, now let’s get to know each other. There are seven inner peak disciples and three outer peak disciples here. As fellow disciples and teammates in this critical period, it is important to understand each other so we can work together when facing enemies.”

Although there were five cultivators at the sixth level of Qi Refining in this team of ten, two of them were granted inner peak quotas and stayed in the inner peak. They were considered inner peak disciples rather than inner door disciples.

In the Xuandan Sect, one could only be considered an inner door disciple upon reaching the seventh level of Qi Refining.

Inner door disciples and inner peak disciples are different even though the difference is only one word.

“I’ll go first. I’m Lu Su, an inner door disciple of White Tiger Peak, at the eighth level of Qi Refining. I’m good at earth attribute defensive magic skills and not good at offensive magic skills. I only have one Earth Dragon Skill, which is barely an offensive skill.”

As Lu Su finished speaking, he felt that his words were nor appropriate, as if they were demoralizing. He changed his tone and continued.

“However, 1 participated in the Demon Cave battle four years ago and have gained quite some experience. I also cultivated an Earth Shield Skill, which can defend against the attacks of ordinary cultivators at the eighth level of Qi Refining. I’m considered strong in defense.”

After Lu Su finished speaking, he looked at a fellow disciple at the seventh level of Qi Refining next to him.

“My name is Cui Xingchen, inner peak disciple of Dan Sword Peak, at rhe seventh level of Qi Refining. I’m good at Alchemy Skill and, besides that, I have also cultivated the Dan Sword Skill, a unique sword control skill of Dan Sword Peak.”

As soon as Cui Xingchen finished speaking, a smile appeared on Lu Su’s face.

“Brother Cui’s Dan Sword Skill has reached a level of minor mastery. Even if 1 were to face him, 1 wouldn’t fare well. His battle strength should be the highest among our team.”

“If we face an enemy, I suggest we take Brother Cui as the core and form a battle formation. It will be more effective.”

Upon hearing this, a hint of pride flashed in Cui Xingchen’s eyes.

As one of rhe nine inner peaks, the Dan Sword Peak’s inheritance was ranked among the top three in terms of combat power within the inner peaks.

However, the Dan Sword Skill, a unique sword control skill, was too difficult to practice, so there were not many inner door disciples who could master it, leading to a lower overall ranking of Dan Sword Peak.

Han Yi, who didn’t stand out among the crowd, glanced at Cui Xingchen with a hint of envy.

Dan Sword Skill, one of the inner sect inheritance skills, could only be practiced after reaching the seventh level of Qi Refining.

Dan Sword Skill was a type of sword control skill that aligned well with alchemists’ cultivation.

Han Yi originally planned to apply for this inheritance skill after entering the inner peak and advancing to the seventh level of Qi Refining, and then switch his Fire Profound Skill to Dan Sword Skill.

“I wonder how my Sword Control skill, which has reached a level of minor mastery, compares to the Dan Sword Skill in terms of strength and weakness,” thought Han Yi suddenly..
