Chapter 350 Clues 2
Upon hearing this, Yunxi immediately composed herself and coughed lightly, saying:

"Nothing."

Haoyi said with an innocent smile:

"The cultivation technique I practice originated from the Immortal Realm. It was found in an ancient secret realm. It requires nine cycles to ascend to the Immortal Realm, and each cycle requires dissipating my cultivation and starting over. Correspondingly, my lifespan will also increase."

Yunxi understood after hearing this. Just thinking about it made her realize how arduous it was. This kind of cultivation method was almost self-torture. Spreading one's cultivation power was no joke. If things went wrong, it could harm oneself. No wonder Ancestor Haoyi would disappear without a trace every now and then.

Yunxi hesitated for a moment but couldn't help herself and asked in a low voice:
"Ancestor, if the enemy discovers the pattern of your dissipation of power, wouldn't it be even more dangerous?"

Every time she had to rebuild her cultivation, the ancestor was just a mortal, and any Qi Refining cultivator could easily kill her.

Ancestor Haoyi smiled slightly and said:

"When my power dissipates depends on my true self, and the speed and time of each retraining are also controlled by my true self. At least in the past tens of thousands of years, no one has been able to attack me when my true self is at its weakest."

Yunxi nodded knowingly. After satisfying her curiosity, she presented the jade slip she had inscribed to Ancestor Haoyi.

Haoyi browsed the jade slip quickly, and her expression remained relatively calm, but only those who knew her well could detect the storm brewing in her eyes.

Yunxi keenly sensed that Ancestor Haoyi was in a bad mood, so she didn't speak up and just waited for the ancestor to ask a question.

Haoyi raised her hand and put the jade slip that Yunxi had inscribed into her storage bracelet before speaking:

"Have you told anyone other than yourself about these discoveries?"

"No, I was worried that there might be spies in the 'Hive', so I was very careful when checking the messages. In order to avoid being discovered by others, I found some clues and went through all the messages that had been filtered out in the last five hundred years."

Yunxi was quite cautious about these matters.

Venerable Haoyi nodded in satisfaction. She felt she hadn't misjudged the girl; she understood things very quickly.

"Then tell me, what exactly do these heretical cultivators want to do?"

After thinking for a moment, Yunxi said:

“Ancestor, according to the information I have found, I believe that the evil cultivators are deliberately suppressing the Weiyu Realm and even targeting its talented disciples.”

According to what I've found about cultivators from various sects who have perished in the last five hundred years, almost every sect has one or two rising genius disciples who die prematurely, and the ways in which these people perish are also different.

Some perished during their training in secret realms, some died in fights over jealousy, and others lost their composure in duels due to their competitive nature, ultimately falling to the swords of others. Although there were many ways they died, none of them were killed by evil cultivators, which seems to suggest that they were deliberately avoided.

The fall of these talented disciples will lead to conflicts between sects and independent cultivators, between sects themselves, and between sects and cultivation families. Once these conflicts escalate, they will cause turmoil in the Weiyu Realm.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the evil cultivators began to stir up trouble, sow discord, and stop at nothing to make the Weiyu Realm even more chaotic.

Haoyi's eyes darkened further, and she said in a deep voice:

"Anything else? Please continue."

Yunxi continued, "I have also discovered that after the fall of genius disciples in various sects, there are always some so-called 'outstanding disciples' who fill the vacancies and become the new leaders of each sect. However, after a hundred years, the cultivation speed of these people will slow down, and they will disappear into the cultivation world, becoming objects of regret in the eyes of everyone."

"so what?"

"I feel this is too 'regular' and seems deliberate. Moreover, if we dig deeper, we will find that these so-called successors are all connected with certain seniors in sects or major cultivation families. They are either descendants of seniors who are related by blood, their own disciples or grand-disciples, or relatives of their Daoist partners."

The rest are disciples recruited from the mortal realm. They have no backing or support, and they rise to leadership positions solely based on their rapidly improving cultivation. However, upon closer examination, it becomes clear that their rapid advancement is due to nothing more than unexpectedly acquiring rare and precious materials, or finding the pills or magic weapons needed for breakthroughs.

This is only what I could find out. All the disciples within the Haoran Sect who have connections with Ancestor Haoting have been listed. As for other sects and large families, I couldn't find any more detailed information, so it's all speculation.

After Yunxi finished explaining her discovery, she stood respectfully to the side and remained silent.

Although she said these were all speculations, she knew in her heart that her speculations were correct, because they were derived from tens of millions of pieces of information from the five regions over the past five hundred years.

Previously, related content had been deliberately ignored or even buried, which is why no one noticed anything amiss. However, as an outsider, standing in the position of a non-native cultivator from the cultivation world, she could see things much more clearly.

Imagine if she were a native cultivator, and after the fall of a genius disciple, a rising star took his place. She would simply think it was a matter of course, because no one is irreplaceable, and she wouldn't investigate whether the replacement was abnormal, since the cultivation world values ​​strength.

It's normal for these cultivators to decline later on, because no one's cultivation path is smooth sailing. There are moments of glory and moments of lows. Encountering bottlenecks is a compulsory course for every cultivator. However, Yunxi discovered this pattern after examining the cultivation paths of all these rising stars.

Perhaps someone discovered clues in the past five hundred years, but they went unnoticed, someone covered it up, or it was simply impossible to investigate further.

Yunxi discovered that a very small number of these inheritors would reach the pinnacle of the Weiyu Realm and then successfully ascend to the Spirit Realm. As for what would happen after ascending to the Spirit Realm, she had no way of knowing.

Venerable Haoyi remained silent for a long time before speaking:

"Your discovery is very important. I still need to find some corroborating evidence. Once your hypothesis is confirmed, I will inform the Nascent Soul Venerables in each domain. In the meantime, you will continue to stay in the 'Hive' to help screen all kinds of information."

"Yes, old man."

Then, Ancestor Haoyi suddenly asked:
Are you interested in joining 'Dark Night Rain'?

Yunxi paused for a moment before asking:
"Ancestor, what exactly is 'Dark Night Rain'?"

Ancestor Haoyi replied with a mysterious smile:

“‘Dark Night’ is the code name given to himself by the founding patriarch of the Haoran Sect, while ‘Mysterious Rain’ is the code name of his true self.”

Yunxi's eyes widened, and she blurted out:
"Huh? How is this possible? The sect leader said that 'Dark Night Rain' is the strongest and last internal defense of the Haoran Sect. It has only been used a limited number of times since its establishment, but it has never failed. How could there only be two people? No, now there is only you, Ancestor."

Hao Yi was quite pleased with Yun Xi's surprised expression while wearing the "Yu Ling" face, and replied with a smile:

"The name of Haoran Sect is derived from the meaning of 'righteous spirit,' but my senior brother felt that where there is light, there must be darkness, so he gave himself the code name 'Dark Night.' The code name of the real person was chosen randomly and has no special meaning."

The codenames were also to make it easier for the two of us to do things that weren't convenient to do openly, after all, we belong to a reputable sect.

After saying that, he gave Yunxi a knowing look, instantly shattering her positive feelings towards the ancestor.
