Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World

Chapter 747: Chapter 381: The Ten Thousand Beasts Secret Realm Five Years Later, Six Hundred Million Mortals (Part 2)

In this world, all schemes are false; only power is true.

The Silver Moon Wolf Clan and the Seven-Colored Peacock Clan wreak havoc everywhere merely because they hide well.

If they dared to expose their whereabouts, they would surely be crushed instantly.

Now, the Celestial Roc Race is besieged on all sides, and even any cats and dogs dare to jump out; it’s truly outrageous.

”Yes, Ancestor.”

Upon hearing these words, many elders immediately responded.

Suddenly, the massive Celestial Roc Race began to operate, frantically searching for various clues and traces to find those missing humans.

Unfortunately, those humans had relocated to the Ten Thousand Beasts Secret Realm.

At the same time, Jiang Fan would leave no traces.

Therefore, no matter how hard they tried, it was all in vain.

They could only find that these humans seemed to have vanished from this world without a trace.

......

Of course, these matters had little to do with Jiang Fan.

After completing these tasks, he temporarily kept a low profile, without causing any additional trouble.

Soon, five years had passed.

And during these five years, the development of the Ten Thousand Beasts Secret Realm didn’t stagnate; instead, it entered a phase of rapid growth.

Cities rose from the ground.

Fields of Spirit Rice were rapidly opened up.

Medicinal gardens blossomed everywhere.

More importantly, the human population of the Ten Thousand Beasts Secret Realm had soared to six hundred million.

Compared to before, the human race in the Secret Realm World was thriving, with at least hundreds of human cities appearing.

Of course, these human cities occupied only a small portion of the Ten Thousand Beasts Secret Realm.

Fully developing every corner of the Ten Thousand Beasts Secret Realm is still a far cry from being achieved.

Xue Zhiheng, who was twenty years old, was among them.

Originally just an ordinary human without a Spirit Root, he managed to cultivate Martial Dao, and within ten years, transformed from martial arts to the Dao, nurturing a Spirit Root. This allowed him to join the Primordial Talisman Sect as an outer sect disciple.

At this moment, he was excited and deeply moved, as he finally took this step and became an outer sect disciple of the Primordial Talisman Sect, the first step from mortal to Immortal.

”Xue Zhiheng, I didn’t expect you to transform from martial arts to the Dao so quickly and nurture an Acquired Spirit Root.”

”Throughout the entire Primordial Talisman Sect, there are very few ordinary humans like you.”

A Primordial Talisman Sect outer sect disciple, Lian Miheng, said with deep admiration.

He looked appreciatively at Xue Zhiheng.

This is because such ordinary humans are incredibly rare, even rarer than cultivators who possess Spirit Roots.

”Are there really so few people who transform from the martial arts to the Dao?”

Xue Zhiheng asked out of curiosity.

”Of course, they are exceedingly rare, pitifully so.”

”Although now everyone in the Primordial Talisman Sect can practice martial arts.”

”However, the vast majority of ordinary humans remain at the Postnatal realm, with less than ten percent able to reach the Innate realm.”

”From the Innate realm to transforming from martial arts to the Dao, nurturing Acquired Spirit Roots, the number is even scarcer.”

”Compared to us cultivators with Innate Spirit Roots, they are even fewer.”

”Not to mention, you actually nurtured a Top-grade Spirit Root, exceeding most cultivators from the very start.”

Lian Miheng said enviously.

Although he was a cultivator with Innate Spirit Roots, his talent was only low-grade.

In terms of talent, he was far inferior to the martial arts prodigy before him.

However, he did not feel jealousy.

Because he was keenly aware of how difficult it was for an ordinary human without a Spirit Root to transform from martial arts to the Dao and nurture Acquired Spirit Roots, the odds were lower than becoming a Nascent Soul Cultivator himself.

If given the choice again, he would still choose to be a cultivator with a Spirit Root, even if it was low-grade.

But because of this.

These humans who transform from martial arts to the Dao are all exceptionally gifted.

They also receive attention and proper training from the sect.

”So, do you mean I can become an outer sect disciple of the Primordial Talisman Sect?”

Xue Zhiheng said excitedly.

This is what all six hundred million ordinary humans in the Ten Thousand Beasts Secret Realm dream of.

Because once they become outer sect disciples, they become elite among humans in the Ten Thousand Beasts Secret Realm, with higher status and identity.

More importantly, he can begin his journey on the path of cultivation, become a true Immortal.

And perhaps even achieve eternal life.

”Of course.”

”As long as you possess a Spirit Root, you can become an outer sect disciple of the Primordial Talisman Sect.”

”This is the token of an outer sect disciple.”

”With this token, you can enter the Outer Sect Peak.”

”There is where outer sect disciples live and reside; you will reside on the Outer Sect Peak in the future.”

Lian Miheng smiled slightly.

He took out a token for outer sect disciples and handed it to Xue Zhiheng.

From then on, Xue Zhiheng became an outer sect disciple of the Primordial Talisman Sect.

”Thank you, Senior Brother.”

Xue Zhiheng was very excited, but he seemed to remember something and asked, ”I heard the sect has inner sect disciples and true disciples; how can I become an inner sect disciple?”

He looked curiously at Lian Miheng.

After all, if his status could advance further, he would naturally gain more benefits.

As someone who transformed from martial arts to the Dao, he was acutely aware of the importance of cultivation resources.

In fact, he could transform from martial arts to the Dao so quickly because he harbored a great secret.

He possessed a secret treasure, called the Dragon Elephant Pearl.

This secret treasure could infuse mysterious energy into him, constantly strengthening his physique.

But this secret treasure also needed to devour a large amount of Spirit Medicine and spiritual flesh to provide mysterious energy.

Therefore, he was eager to obtain vast amounts of cultivation resources, which are crucial for his future.

”I didn’t expect you to have some understanding of the regulations of the Primordial Talisman Sect.”

”Actually, becoming an inner sect disciple is simple, just advance to Foundation Establishment and become a Foundation Establishment Cultivator.”

”Otherwise, all are outer sect disciples.”

”If you become a Golden Core Cultivator, you can become an elder of the Primordial Talisman Sect.”

”Only through the enhancement of your cultivation can your position be elevated.”

”Meanwhile, your welfare benefits will significantly increase.”

Lian Miheng briefly explained the regulations of the Primordial Talisman Sect.

”What about true disciples, how can one become a true disciple?”

Xue Zhiheng asked curiously.

”True disciples are different; their position is very special.”

”Because we can’t just become true disciples by desire alone.”

”Only if recognized by Lord Sect Master, can we become true disciples.”

”For example, Senior Brother Xiao Huo, Senior Brother Luo Wu, etc., were favored by Lord Sect Master and became true disciples.”

”But, they possess Celestial Spirit Root talent; we cannot even begin to compare.”

”It’s said that after merely ten years of cultivation, they advanced to Foundation Establishment level.”

”Meanwhile, we ordinary outer sect disciples have only reached third-layer Qi cultivation realm after ten years; the gap is simply too great, and we are far from Foundation Establishment.”

Lian Miheng said with deep emotion.

Initially, he was jealous of the true disciples.

But as time passed, he realized the vast gap between himself and the true disciples.

The discrepancy between them was insurmountable.

True disciples’ cultivation progress is like one year equating a decade for others, and they never encounter bottlenecks.

But for ordinary outer sect disciples, the bottleneck at third-layer Qi cultivation alone could trap them for many years.

Without the help of an elixir, they might not break through for another few years.

Even the bottleneck at early-stage Qi cultivation is tough; mid-stage and late-stage Qi cultivation bottlenecks could trap them for decades.

In terms of Foundation Establishment, there was little hope in this lifetime.

Upon entering the world of cultivation, he began to realize the startling discrepancy in talent among individuals, it’s more striking than the difference between humans and dogs.

”Only by being noticed by Lord Sect Master, can one become a true disciple?”

”And requiring Celestial Spirit Roots makes it unlikely for me.”

Hearing these words, Xue Zhiheng felt rather helpless.

It seemed difficult for him to become a true disciple.

After all, among the many disciples in the Ten Thousand Beasts Secret Realm, only a few became true disciples.

His luck probably wouldn’t be good enough to catch the eye of Lord Sect Master.

Moreover, Celestial Spirit Root talent is incredibly rare.

In the Ten Thousand Beasts Secret Realm, with six hundred million ordinary humans, only a few possess Celestial Spirit Roots; they can be counted on one hand.

Honestly speaking, his Top-grade Spirit Root talent is already impressive, but it can’t compare to Celestial Spirit Root.

Such talent is termed as naturally gifted Daoist.

It’s said that when such individuals begin cultivation, their progress is swift, and they face little bottleneck until the Nascent Soul stage, which is terrifying.
