Cultivation: I Signed in with the Talent of an Immortal at the Start

Chapter 646: Changes in the Hun Family, System Upgrade

“I see that you two seem unaware of this news; the Hun Family has run into some trouble, and they may no longer be able to offer you suitable treatment.”

Having said this, True God Heiyan set down his teacup and looked at Han Xuanji with a smile:

“Young Friend Han, now that you know this, do you still intend to carry out your original decision and insist on returning to the Hun Family?”

In the story Han Xuanji had deliberately fabricated, he was someone cultivated by the Hun Family who had merely left for a long time to gain experience, and now that he had achieved a Breakthrough to Eternal Dao Lord, he intended to return.

Furthermore, on the Hongmeng Sea, apart from large warships like this one, it was impossible to receive news from the Eternal Continent.

“Something happened?”

A flash of surprise crossed Han Xuanji’s eyes. He had not expected such a turn of events, and his heart skipped a beat as he hesitated for a moment.

“Dare I ask, True God, did the Saint of the Hun Family run into trouble?”

Han Xuanji could only think that perhaps the pillar of the Hun Family had encountered an issue.

True God Heiyan did not answer directly, only slowly nodding in response.

“The Hun Family… are they alright?”

Han Xuanji asked cautiously again.

“They naturally won’t have any problems in the short term, as they are, after all, a subordinate force of the Holy Court. However, it is hard to say in the long run.”

True God Heiyan thought for a moment before giving this answer.

Han Xuanji nodded, having understood the situation. Clearly, even if the Hun Family had declined, they would certainly not collapse in the short term; after all, they still had backing within the Holy Court. But when the Hun Family no longer possessed sufficient value, these favors would sooner or later run out.

However, this was not Han Xuanji’s main concern. It sounded like the Hun Family was not on the verge of being wiped out, so there shouldn’t be any immediate danger; they simply couldn’t provide him with many resources.

And as it happened, Han Xuanji did not need anyone else’s resources anyway.

That said.

In the eyes of True God Heiyan, the Hun Family must have cultivated him heavily for him to have achieved such accomplishments.

Now that the Hun Family could no longer give him more, would he just walk away like that?

Wouldn’t his persona collapse immediately…

Han Xuanji quickly realized that this was actually a test, and replied with a firm tone:

“Many thanks for your kindness, Senior, and thank you for informing me of this. However, please forgive this Junior, as I still cannot accept your invitation.”

“Oh?”

The smile on True God Heiyan’s face stiffened slightly, and he looked somewhat displeased:

“You know the Hun Family is in trouble, yet you still want to return? You must know that by staying by my side, not only can you avoid trouble, but you can also attain better development. Why not do that?”

Han Xuanji bowed slightly and said slowly:

“It is precisely because I know the Hun Family is in trouble that this Junior should not leave now.”

Upon hearing this, the displeasure on True God Heiyan’s face vanished instantly, replaced by a look of approval in his eyes as he nodded repeatedly:

“Not bad, not bad! I had originally thought that if you heard the Hun Family was in trouble and decided to abandon them, even if you agreed to join the fleet, my assessment of you would be much lower. I did not expect you to be so loyal and righteous; your character far exceeds my expectations. It seems I was overthinking it.”

True God Heiyan paused, then sighed and said:

“I can tell you the truth: although the Hun Family has declined somewhat, a major figure in the Holy Court still chooses to support them. Even if you return, there won’t be any problems.”

People with outstanding talent are easy to find, but those who are loyal, righteous, and hold fast to their original intentions are rare. Someone like Han Xuanji, even if he could not be recruited, was worth befriending deeply.

Han Xuanji nodded slightly without saying anything more. This was about what he had guessed.

True God Heiyan looked at Han Xuanji’s silent demeanor and smiled:

“Rest assured, I will not force you. Since your mind is made up, I will not insist further. But remember, if you encounter trouble in the Hun Family in the future that you cannot solve, or if you change your mind, you can find me at any time. I will always welcome you to join the Heiyan Fleet.”

“Many thanks for your understanding and kindness, Senior. This Junior will keep it in mind.”

Han Xuanji bowed to express his thanks.

It had to be said that True God Heiyan was a straightforward person, and he was also grateful for the resources the other party had provided during these days.

To an Eternal True God, it might have been a trivial matter, but for him right now, it was quite helpful.

The two chatted for a few more moments, and True God Heiyan also secretly gave Han Xuanji some pointers, all of which were heartfelt advice. Afterward, Han Xuanji rose to take his leave. True God Heiyan instructed Hui Feng to properly arrange the itinerary for Han Xuanji and Hun Qianling once the warship arrived at the border of the Eternal Continent, ensuring that both of them disembarked safely.

…

Han Xuanji walked out of the captain’s lounge, his mind filled with many thoughts.

The pillar of the Hun Family had run into trouble; this news was indeed beyond his expectations. It seemed that after arriving at the Hun Family, he would need to be more observant and act cautiously.

Returning to the cultivation chamber, he found Hun Qianling waiting for him at the door for quite some time.

Seeing Han Xuanji return, she had no expression on her face, though she was somewhat worried in her heart.

Han Xuanji looked at her somewhat nervous appearance, thought for a moment, and decided not to share the news yet, smiling instead:

“It’s nothing; he just said that if we ever need help in the future, we can ask him. It counts as having gotten to know a major figure.”

Upon hearing this, Hun Qianling nodded:

“True God Heiyan is indeed a good person; we must not forget this kindness in the future.”

“Mm, we can discuss the rest once we reach the Eternal Continent.”

Han Xuanji watched her happy expression and nodded gently, though a trace of imperceptible gravity was hidden in the depths of his eyes.

He did not immediately inform her of the changes in the Hun Family, fearing it would dampen her excitement about returning home.

Several days later, the warship finally arrived at the border of the Eternal Continent, slowed down completely, and slowly docked at the border port. Han Xuanji received a transmission from Hui Feng, and then prepared to disembark with Hun Qianling.

The two walked quickly out of the cultivation chamber and found that many fleet Cultivators had already gathered in the warship’s public area. Everyone’s face was filled with excitement and anticipation, and the sound of discussion rose and fell.

Having successfully hunted the Hongmeng Giant Kun, everyone would receive a generous bonus, and many were already imagining how they would spend this income.

Some thought of saving it to spend later, while others planned to use the funds to buy treasures to improve their cultivation…

Soon, the warship landed, and the two followed the crowd off the warship.

Han Xuanji followed Hun Qianling’s gaze and saw a magnificent city standing outside. The city walls towered into the clouds, built from crystals containing Eternal Power, surrounded by a faint halo. The city gate was bustling with people, all of whom were returning Cultivators and traveling merchants, making it extremely lively.

In the distance, at the horizon, lay the vast and boundless hinterland of the Eternal Continent, shrouded in clouds and mist, where one could vaguely see rolling divine mountains, sacred and solemn.

A ripple of emotion also stirred in Han Xuanji’s heart. He could clearly feel that the rules of this continent were extremely stable; just like in the Hongmeng Sea, its Heaven and Earth Laws were far more profound and unfathomable than those in the Chaos.

“If I had come to the Eternal Continent when I was in the Limitless Primordial Realm, I estimate I would have already broken through to Eternal Dao Lord.”

Han Xuanji thought.

Below Limitless Primordial, it is easier to Cultivate in the Chaos, but for Powerful Experts at the Limitless Primordial stage, it is actually more suitable to comprehend the Dao and Cultivate on the Eternal Continent.

Suddenly, the System’s voice sounded in Han Xuanji’s mind.

[Detected that the Host has arrived at the Eternal Continent and cultivation has reached Eternal Dao Lord. Adapting to the new environment, upgrading, please look forward to it.]
