In seven months, there were significant breakthroughs in two skills.
One was the Departing Fire Sword Formula. Han Yi had started practicing this sword secret since his Qi Refinement 7th layer. However, among all his previous skills, this was the most advanced and slowest to progress. It only broke through to the[PeakMastery llevel one month ago.
The other one was the Spirit Flame Skill, a magic skill suitable for group attacks and various changes. Han Yi sought this skill after going through several life-and-death battles and concluding the weaknesses of his abilities.
In just seven months, this Spirit Flame Skill has progressed from a beginner to mastering. With further mastering, the speed became slower, and the time required now had to be calculated in tens or even dozens of times more.
Apart from these two skills, only the Sword Control Skill had a relatively more advanced progress, and the next level was not too far away.
Besides skills,
Over these seven months, he had also refined the broken sword named “Black Light.” However, its high rank made it difficult for Han Yi to control it, even though it was just a broken sword.
Nevertheless, it was most suitable for use as a trump card. Han Yi had tried its power and was greatly astonished. He was confident that if he faced Mo Wen again, this broken sword would be even more powerful than the Blood Saber.
As for realm progression, Han Yi’s was relatively slow, mainly because guarding the Blood Sea made it difficult for him to find time for quiet cultivation. Only when rotating with other Foundation Establishment Stage Elders to guard the Xuanxue Peak did he have time for seclusion.
However, thanks to the two upgrades of his root bones, his progress had already reached 21/100, which was considerable.
Overall, half of his seclusion was for cultivating his realm while the other half was spent guarding the Blood Sea and killing Demonic Beings, increasing his proficiency.
Fulfilling and determined, Han Yi felt that such a disciplined cultivation routine would continue for ten years.
Whoosh!
A figure descended from the sky, revealing the appearance of He Fengdi.
“Junior Brother Han, it’s our turn to rotate today. I’ll guard the Seventh Pillar.”
Han Yi stood up and cupped his hands.
“Thank you, Senior Brother He.”
Han Yi took to the air with his sword, preparing to fly up, but was stopped by He Fengdi’s call.
“Junior Brother Han Yi probably doesn’t know about the sect’s latest decision.”
Han Yi was slightly stunned: “Decision?”
He Fengdi nodded: “1 guessed that Junior Brother Han wouldn’t know.”
“The sect has decided to build an Immortal City on the periphery using Xuanxue City as a base. I guess the plan is to attract loose cultivators or cultivation families through missions or rewards so that the sect’s Foundation Establishment Elders can leave their positions guarding the Blood Sea and concentrate on cultivation instead.”
“Oh?” Flan Yi’s mind was stirred.
“However, the specific details have not been announced yet. I’m not very clear about them either. Junior Brother Han might as well pay more attention since this concerns all of us Foundation Establishment Elders.”
Han Yi nodded, thanked him, then took to the sky. Within less than a minute, he crossed ten miles.
Returning to Xuanxue Peak, he entered a new palace, the Xuanxue Hall. This hall served a similar function as the Xuandan Hall on Xuandan Peak and was considered the highest authority of the Xuandan Sect branch at the edge of the Blood Sea.
Han Yi located Gu Yu, and after some inquiries, gained a better understanding of the sect’s plans for building the market town.
Gu Yu had far more connections within the sect than He Fengdi. Even many late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators got along well with him, so naturally, he knew more.
After understanding the situation, Han Yi suddenly realized something.
He Fengdi was wrong about one point.
The sect’s construction of the peripheral Immortal City was not in the form of missions but rather involved dividing Xuanxue Peak’s spirit veins into top-tier fourth-stage spirit veins. The divided spirit veins would then form six third-stage spirit veins and twelve second-stage spirit veins.
These eighteen spirit veins would radiate out from Xuanxue City as their center, establishing eighteen smaller-scale Immortal Cities.
Then, the sect would use the spirit veins as an incentive to invite cultivation families or powerful loose cultivators to reside in the Immortal Cities.
Of course, the forces residing in the Immortal Cities would have obligations while using the spirit veins. On one hand, they would be required to dispatch personnel to guard the Blood Sea and eliminate demonic beings; on the other hand, they would need to pay the fees for renting the Immortal City as required.
Simply put,
The Xuandan Sect did something that most sects would never do: they divided their spirit veins and lowered their spirit vein rank, turning fifth-stage spiritual veins into fourth-stage ones. They then established Immortal Cities on the divided spirit veins and leased them out.
Normally, sects would strive to improve their spirit vein rank through generations of hard work and effort. Flowever, the Xuandan Sect went against this trend, and other sects who learned about it would surely accuse them of wastefulness.
But the loose cultivators and cultivation families from the nearby counties of Taibai, Nanyang, San Yuan, and Xing Hai went crazy over the news.
The Xuandan Sect would sign fifty-year leases for their spirit veins.
That is, once a cultivation family obtained the first lease, they could freely use second-stage or even third-stage spirit veins for fifty years. Although the spirit stones they paid in rent were not few, and they also needed to send people to join the Blood Sea’s defenses, these requirements seemed insignificant compared to the spirit veins.
In the cultivation world, spirit veins were undoubtedly the most important cultivation resources.
Upon learning about this matter from Gu Yu, Han Yi’s first reaction was that the sect had gone crazy. His second reaction was that there must be someone remarkable within the sect.
From his perspective, the Xuandan Sect had become too scattered. The Xuandan Mountain Range alone was enough for them to struggle with, and they could hardly spare personnel to guard the Blood Sea. Although it seemed like they had gained a fifth-stage spirit vein, nearly half of the sect’s power had been consumed.
It was difficult to weigh the gains and losses.
Instead of continuing to bear this burden, they could turn it into a constant stream of cultivation resources to be sent back to the main sect in the Xuandan Mountain Range, allowing the branch sect to become a tool for earning these resources.
Although it seemed like they had lost a spirit vein, they actually gained a lot in the process.
As for spirit veins, once the sect’s strength had developed, it would only be a matter of time before more Nascent Soul masters emerged. Then, it wouldn’t just be a fifth-stage spirit vein – even a sixth-stage spirit vein would be within reach.
This was an incredibly bold and daring plan.
As Han Yi thought of this, Qin Wuxian’s figure flashed across his mind. He felt that these remarkable policies must have come from this mysterious Supreme Elder.
“Three months later, everyone in the branch sect here and the main sect in the Xuandan Mountain Range will be free to choose whether to stay or leave. Every three years, five Foundation Establishment cultivators will stay here permanently, while other cultivators can move freely between both places.”
“Junior Brother Han, 1 know you’ve been eager to return to the Xuandan Mountain Range for a long time. This time, your wish will come true.”
Gu Yu said with a smile.
Over the past seven months, Gu Yu’s soul injury had already healed, but it had left a hidden wound. In his lifetime, he could only break through to the Foundation Establishment middle stage at most, and his path to immortality would be cut short.
Han Yi expressed his gratitude.
Truth be told, he preferred Azure Dragon Peak over Xuanxue Peak..
