Chapter 168: Chapter 146: The Hidden Sanctuary

Translator: 549690339

This time, among the Xuandan Sect participants in the Mountain and Sea Gathering of Immortals, there were eleven cultivators. After the demon-slaying event, two Qi Cultivation Stage and one Foundation Establishment cultivators fell, leaving only eight survivors to return.

However.

From Zhuge Wu You’s perspective, this was already considered a stroke of luck.

“The Mountain and Sea demon-slaying event is an opportunity for gaining Immortal Affinity, as well as a challenge, and its danger is often overlooked due to the presence of powerful forces such as a royal state, two saints, and three major sects.”

“Two hundred years ago, when I participated in the Mountain and Sea Gathering of Immortals with my Foundation Establishment cultivation base, there was a blue flood dragon at the edge of transforming into a real dragon in the depths of the Eastern Sea. It devoured three Nascent Soul cultivators, who had participated in the demon-slaying event, and later escaped from a Spirit Transformation stage expert in the Stars Sea.”

“Over the past two hundred years, many experts from the Stars Sea and Yujing Mountain have joined forces to enter the deepest parts of the Eastern Sea, but none have been able to find the blue flood dragon.”

“From this, you should understand the dangers of the demon-slaying event.”

In the great hall, Zhuge Wu You sat on a cushion at the top of the room, under which four Foundation Establishment Elders and three Qi Cultivation Stage cultivators took their seats one by one.

The current instructions were meant as guidance from Zhuge Wu You to those who had participated in the Demon-slaying Union and survived.

After explaining the nature of this demon-slaying event, Zhuge Wu You began to talk about cultivation techniques.

Even though Han Yi’s skills were automatically improved by the Proficiency Panel, he still gained insights from listening. Han Yi asked for guidance on Sword Control Skill, and after listening, he discovered that the progress of Sword Control Skill on the proficiency panel had increased by a whole 2%.

This discovery gave Han Yi a new understanding of the Proficiency Panel. It turned out that he could also improve his skills through his own comprehension, not just relying on the panel.

However, Han Yi felt that if he were to rely solely on his own comprehension, it would take ages to advance. It would be foolish not to utilize the system at all.

Seven days later.

Following the guidance of the Stars Sea cultivators, everyone headed to a certain great hall for the task settlement and ranking according to their demon-slaying achievements. novelbuddy.(c)om

Han Yi did not hesitate to decide whether to hand over the Huohuang Evil’s body since he had slain the demon under everyone’s watch. Moreover, the Gu Xi Monarch also knew about it, so hiding it would only cause misunderstandings.

When the results were revealed, Han Yi, an unfamiliar name, suddenly ranked fourth among many Qi Cultivation Stage cultivators on the Evil-slaying List.

Xuandan Sect, Han Yi.

There was only one note: Slain Demon Huohuang Evil.

Hearing this ranking, Han Yi felt surprised – not because he ranked high, but because he ranked low.

He had gone all-out, and by taking advantage of Huohuang Evil’s momentary carelessness and injury, he used every means at his disposal, leveraging two first-stage top-grade Spiritual Talismans and activating two top-grade magical treasures to slay the demon cultivator.

In this process, his strength accounted for half, and timing accounted for the other half.

However, strictly speaking, he had only killed the demon’s physical body and not personally wiped out its Evil Spirit.

And with this, he ranked fourth.

He couldn’t help but wonder how powerful the three ranked above him must be.

Han Yi couldn’t help but sigh, realizing that there were always more powerful people outside his scope.

In the courtyard, as everyone looked at Han Yi, their faces were full of joy. Han Yi had brought fame to the Xuandan Sect.

“Junior Brother Han really hid his abilities very well.”

After Zhao Ruida’s great joy, his tone became somewhat complicated. He remembered that he had once asked Han Yi how many evil beasts he had killed, and Han Yi said three. At first, he thought Han Yi was lying, but then he realized that Han Yi was referring to evil beasts, not demon cultivators, which made the answer correct, as Zhao Ruida hadn’t actually asked about the number of demon cultivators killed.

Killing a demon cultivator with a Qi Cultivation Stage at the ninth level, regardless of the demon cultivator’s condition and how Han Yi took advantage of the situation, was an astonishing feat. (f)reeweb(n)ovel.com

On the other hand, Shi Lengyan was reminded of another matter.

At the time they returned, the legendary Qi Cultivation Stage cultivator, Xue He, of the Blood God Sect, was not among them. They had wondered who had killed Xue He.

Now that Shi Lengyan learned that Han Yi had killed an evil cultivator, she couldn’t help but associate Xue He’s death with Han Yi.

If he could kill a demon cultivator, it was highly likely that he would also have killed Xue He if he had encountered him.

Shi Lengyan’s eyes flickered as she felt as if she had never truly recognized this low-profile junior brother before.

“Han Yi.” Shi Lengyan etched this name deep in her heart, feeling that it was necessary to investigate it when they returned and get to know this junior brother better.

Zhuge Wu You’s face was also filled with joy, and this was the first time in a long while that Han Yi had seen such joy on Zhuge Wu You’s face.

“Although we didn’t make it into the top three, the fourth place is still an unprecedented ranking for the Xuandan Sect.”

“This ranking and the rewards it entails will definitely be generous.”

“Once the news reaches the Xuandan Sect, 1 believe Master Yuan will be overjoyed.”

The other Foundation Establishment Elders also praised Han Yi.

Among them, only Han Yi was somewhat uneasy about his ranking.

To be honest, after struggling for so long and reaching this point, Han Yi had originally planned to stay low-key and keep on struggling. He had chosen a safe cave for cultivation on the nineteenth island for the sake of maintaining a low profile and to avoid being disturbed during his time there.

However.

Xue He’s appearance and the emergence of the giant evil had disrupted his low-key life, exposing him to the gaze of legendary Qi Cultivation Stage cultivators and the ancient Gu Xi Monarch.

After returning to the Stars Sea, Han Yi had no choice but to report truthfully about his killing of the Huohuang Evil.

Following that, the rankings were announced, and he was ranked fourth among the Qi Cultivation Stage cultivators.

All of this had been set in motion since the moment the giant evil had activated its innate supernatural powers and appeared beside Han Yi..
