Immortality and Cultivation: I Have Too Many Talents

Chapter 425 The Soul Tablet Shattered (Seeking Further Subscriptions)

Mid-stage Golden Core!

Shen Xuan felt a chill in his heart, but remained calm and composed on his face.

This time, Master Xuanwen's divine sense swept across everyone equally, without distinction.

It is estimated that this is a test of the cultivation level of the disciples who have been training in the two secret realms.

Shen Xuan's performance was similar to that of a direct disciple of a Golden Core cultivator in a sect, and it did not attract special attention from True Person Xuanwen.

After scanning the area, Master Xuanwen revealed a smile.

Clearly, the strength of the disciples who were training in the two secret realms was mediocre.

Compared to the Xuantian Sect, it is far inferior.

Two more days passed.

A merchant ship landed.

Shen Xuan unexpectedly saw an acquaintance.

"Why is he here?"

The person who came was Zhuo Qingning, the president of the Tongxin Chamber of Commerce.

He is a fake alchemist.

Compared to the true masters of the sect, they are not of enough importance.

However, beside Zhuo Qingning stood an old man with a sallow complexion and a thin body, whose aura was powerful; he was none other than a Golden Core cultivator.

Zhuo Qingning nodded slightly to Shen Xuan, and then introduced the Golden Core elder to the other True Immortals present.

It turns out that this person was Zhuo Jincheng, the behind-the-scenes boss of Tongxin Chamber of Commerce.

He came here to acquire treasures from the hidden realm.

Of course, this only applies to those that are willing to be sold.

Zhuo Jincheng lacked confidence in front of the Seven True Immortals.

After exchanging pleasantries, Zhuo Qingning first greeted Lingxiao Zhenren and Hanyu Zhenren.

Then she came to Shen Xuan.

"Young friend Shen Xuan, it's been a long time! You're even more impressive now!"

Zhuo Qingning said with a smile.

"Shen Xuan greets Chairman Zhuo."

Shen Xuan returned the gift.

"The materials for the Foundation Establishment Pill you requested, except for the Transformation Fruit, have all been prepared."

Zhuo Qingning transmitted his voice through his soul.

Shen Xuan's eyes lit up.

How many portions?

Thirty portions.

"not enough!"

Shen Xuan shook his head: "Didn't we say we'd prepare a hundred portions first?"

"Young friend, please don't be impatient. The materials for Foundation Establishment Pills are not easy to obtain. Please give me some time."

In fact, Zhuo Qingning held back some things.

Even if the materials for Foundation Establishment Pills are difficult to acquire, can they be more difficult than the Rejuvenation Pill, a special third-tier elixir?

For businessmen, profit is paramount.

There were some things he needed to discuss with Shen Xuan in person.

However, Shen Xuan had been in seclusion on Hanyu Peak, so he had no chance to meet him in person.

"If you're willing to use Foundation Establishment Pills to settle the debt, that would be much easier!"

Zhuo Qingning smiled as he transmitted his voice.

Shen Xuan gave Zhuo Qingning a deep look.

They're all old foxes!
“This is not the place to talk. After we get back, Chairman Zhuo should come to Hanyu Peak when he has some free time, and we can talk face to face.”

Shen Xuan thought for a moment.

With his current capabilities, he really can't find a better partner than the Tongxin Chamber of Commerce.

"Very well! I, Zhuo, will definitely pay you a visit."

Seeing that Shen Xuan had agreed, Zhuo Qingning was in a great mood.

He walked toward Zhuo Jincheng, his lips moving slightly.

Zhuo Jincheng nodded slightly to Shen Xuan, then turned around and began chatting with Master Hanyu.

"I've heard that Fellow Daoist Hanyu is skilled in Rejuvenation Pills. The Tongxin Chamber of Commerce happens to have three sets of medicinal herbs. Would Fellow Daoist Hanyu have the time to help refine them?"

Master Hanyu did not completely refuse.

The two discussed it privately.

Master Hanyu beckoned Shen Xuan over.

"This is my junior apprentice, Shen Xuan. He will be in charge of coordinating the refining of the Longevity Pill with Chairman Zhuo."

"Very good. That's what I thought too."

Shen Xuan was slightly surprised.

Master Hanyu's attitude towards Zhuo Jincheng was quite good.

It's much better than dealing with the True Man of Xuantian Sect.

Shen Xuan's thoughts shifted slightly.

Then I guessed the reason.

Master Hanyu was originally a rogue cultivator and had always stayed in the Song Kingdom.

The headquarters of the Tongxin Chamber of Commerce was also in the Song Kingdom.

Master Hanyu must have known Zhuo Jincheng for a long time.

Rogue cultivators who achieve the Golden Core stage are extremely rare.

Throughout the entire Song Kingdom, there were only a handful of such people.

……

Three more days passed.

A sword-shaped spaceship flew in; it was the Divine Sword Sect.

The two Golden Core cultivators at the head of the group were a man with a dignified appearance, a square face, a high nose, and a tall build, and a pale, thin, and resolute appearance.

Shen Xuan listened to them exchanging pleasantries with the True Men; their names were Yue Mingfei and Cheng Tianyi.

They brought twenty disciples with them to train in the secret realm.

Shen Xuan's heart stirred.

It appears that all seven sects are led by two True Immortals.

The Qingyun Sect and the Divine Sword Sect are in the same category.

Medicine Valley is clearly slightly inferior.

Among the disciples of the Divine Sword Sect, Nie Wuhen was prominently listed.

He was slightly taken aback when he saw Shen Xuan standing next to Hanyu Zhenren.

Then, he moved his lips slightly and transmitted his voice to Yue Mingfei.

"Congratulations, Fellow Daoist Hanyu, on taking on such a fine disciple. The glory of your sect is just around the corner!"

Yue Mingfei said with a smile, but there was no smile in his eyes.

The fact that his personal disciple Nie Wuhen lost to Shen Xuan made him a laughing stock among the True Immortals of the Song Kingdom.

Even the sect leader mentioned, intentionally or unintentionally, at a meeting that the core formation seedlings should be urged to improve their combat abilities.

He was a Golden Core disciple of the Divine Sword Sect, but lost to a True Person disciple of the Azure Cloud Sect in a competition.

The opponent is only in the mid-Foundation Establishment stage.

Although the other party is also cultivating their body, they are at the peak of the Golden Body Realm.

In theory, they belong to the same realm.

However, no matter how he explained it, Nie Wuhen was defeated.

It damages the reputation of the Divine Sword Sect and Yue Mingfei.

Yue Mingfei was well aware of Nie Wuhen's combat strength.

Within the Divine Sword Sect, while not quite the absolute leader, he was certainly among the top.

Among the practitioners of the Divine Sword Sect, there are no more than ten who can reliably defeat Nie Wuhen.

Master Hanyu's face was as cold as ice: "Yue Mingfei, if you are not convinced, let's have a match."

"Don't joke around. My old bones can't withstand Fellow Daoist Hanyu's torment! Yue Mingfei concedes defeat!"

Yue Mingfei said seriously.

With such a thick skin, even Master Hanyu couldn't do anything about him.

Yue Mingfei was just making a few jokes.

He would never fight with Master Hanyu.

Victory without force.

If you lose, you lose face.

In the following days, the spaceships of the Golden Sun Sect, the Beast Emperor Pavilion, and the Thousand Machine Sect arrived one after another.

Among them, the Jin Yang Sect was the most powerful.

The Golden Sun Sect's spaceship burned like a raging fire, exuding an imposing aura that seemed capable of tearing through space, and its speed was extremely fast.

The two True Immortals leading the team were both at the mid-stage of the Golden Core realm. One looked like a boy of seventeen or eighteen, and the other had a full head of white hair and sharp eyes.

The one who looked like a young boy was Master Lieyang.

With a full head of white hair, he was the Golden Sword Master.

The forty disciples who were training in the secret realm were all full of vigor and fighting spirit.

Shen Xuan secretly praised him.

No wonder the Golden Sun Sect can rival the Xuan Tian Sect.

Judging solely from the leaders and disciples undergoing training in secret realms, the Golden Sun Sect, while not quite as good as the Profound Heaven Sect, is still only slightly inferior.

"Therefore, the Song Kingdom is a seven-sect alliance, not a single sect like the Xuantian Sect that is dominant!"

If the Xuantian Sect is strong enough, it should first annex the other six sects, unify the sects of the Song Kingdom, and integrate the spiritual resources of the entire Song Kingdom.

In this way, the strength of the Xuantian Sect will experience a qualitative leap.

At that time, no matter which direction you choose, you can break the deadlock.

Rather than like now.

They repeatedly depleted the Song Dynasty's cultivators to maintain a fragile balance.

A few days later.

The Beast Emperor Pavilion and the Thousand Machine Sect arrived.

Twenty disciples from the Beast Emperor Pavilion were training in the secret realm, and fifteen from the Thousand Machines Sect.

Shen Xuan stood behind Han Yu Zhenren.

He was somewhat wary of the Beast Emperor Pavilion.

Fortunately, the master of the Beast King Pavilion was busy exchanging pleasantries with everyone.

They didn't pay special attention to Shen Xuan.

This put Shen Xuan at ease.

It seems that Lu Wenshang's affair with the Beast Emperor Pavilion in the desolate Luoxia Lake has not been exposed.

Actually, Shen Xuan handled that matter cleanly and efficiently.

Lu Wenshang was killed by his wife, Zhuang Ninglu.

Zhuang Ninglu was originally a disciple of Hundred Flowers Valley.

She handled it very well, leaving no loose ends.

Seven sects gathered together.

In front of the cultivators from the other six sects, Master Xuanwen addressed the disciples undergoing training in the secret realm.

The meaning is clear.

Once inside the secret realm, all disciples must unite and help each other, and must not kill one another.

Otherwise, once they leave the secret realm, they will be punished according to the sect's rules.

Master Xuanwen even pointed this out.

The disciples of the other six sects should all be treated as fellow disciples of the Xuantian Sect.

No private fights are allowed.

Never make the first move.

Otherwise, they will be severely punished according to the sect's rules.

Jin Yangzong's Master Lieyang followed suit.

The same meaning is conveyed when giving instructions.

The same applies to all other sects.

Shen Xuan found it amusing.

A group of award-winning actors are performing.

They spoke in a grand and respectable manner, stating that disciples of the seven sects were forbidden from engaging in private duels.

However, when it comes to vying for major opportunities and matters of interest, things change.

Not to mention disciples from other sects, even those from the same sect or lineage would be killed.

As long as no one saw it and there is no way to verify it, then there was no violation of the sect's precepts.

If a fight really breaks out, each side will have its own reasons, and it will be difficult to determine right from wrong.

Could it be that a sect's true master would destroy their own foundation by conducting a soul search on the sect's own Core Formation seed?
It should be understood that after a cultivator's soul is searched, their spirit and soul are easily damaged, and they may even suffer a mental breakdown, become an idiot, and perish.

The Gan River Secret Realm was originally located within the territory of the Xuantian Sect.

All the spots for the secret realm training were taken by the seven major sects of the Song Kingdom, totaling 180 people.

The sixteen True Immortals from the Seven Sects examined all the disciples who entered the secret realm.

In this way, it can be ensured that these 180 people are engaged in spiritual practice.

It's impossible to let demonic cultivators infiltrate them.

As for cultivation level, that's secondary.

The most experienced disciples are those who have reached the Foundation Establishment stage.

A small portion are in the late stage of Foundation Building.

There are only two people in the mid-Foundation Establishment stage.

One was from the Xuantian Sect, and the other was from the Jinyang Sect.

Shen Xuan knew at a glance that these two people were extraordinary.

The disciples of this sect all have great respect for these two.

"So, there are still exceptions."

Shen Xuan thought to himself.

Look around.

The Core Formation seed of the Qingyun Sect is slightly weaker than that of the Divine Sword Sect.

Similar to the cultivators of the Beast Emperor Pavilion.

However, most of the cultivators in the Beast Emperor Pavilion possess a second-tier natal spirit beast.

Overall, the Beast Emperor Pavilion is slightly better than the Azure Cloud Sect.

a few days later.

All personnel assemble.

"Everyone's here, shall we begin?"

Master Xuanwen suggested.

"Then let's get started!"

The Mysterious Master distributed six tokens from the secret realm.

Each of the seven sects dispatched a True Person, who simultaneously offered up a token from the secret realm.

Master Xuanwen infused his spiritual power, combining the seven tokens into one, forming a key to the secret realm.

Subsequently, the seven True Immortals simultaneously activated their secret realm keys, throwing them into the desolate wilderness ahead where no one was.

The next moment.

The wind swept away the clouds, a strange phenomenon appeared in the sky.

The phantom image of an ancient gate stood before the crowd.

The Seven Immortals continued to exert their power.

The Secret Realm Key shone brightly and flew to the illusory gate of the Secret Realm, where it was inserted.

The ancient gate slowly opened.

Suddenly, their eyes lit up as they saw a vast, desolate land beyond the gate.

"Is this the secret realm of the Gan River, which possesses many rare and precious natural treasures?"

Shen Xuan pondered to himself.

At this moment, Master Xuanwen gave the order for the disciples of Xuantian Sect to enter in turn.

They walked to the ancient gate, and just one step forward, they were enveloped in a blue light and vanished abruptly.

Subsequently, the other disciples from various sects, under the orders of their respective leaders, entered the secret realm one by one.

Before long, all 180 Core Formation seed cultivators from the seven sects entered the secret realm.

The seven masters concluded their practice.

The key flew back and transformed back into seven secret realm tokens.

This time, the seven immortals took it back separately and did not return it to Immortal Xuanku.

The ancient gate slowly closed.

The leaders began to close their eyes and rest.

The Gan River Secret Realm will last for three months.

Whether it's a blessing or a curse depends entirely on the individual fortune of the disciple undergoing training in the secret realm.

Once inside the secret realm, they, being real people, could offer no help and could only wait patiently.

Shen Xuan stood behind Han Yu Zhenren.

Throughout the journey, he never strayed more than ten feet from Hanyu Zhenren.

Only three days later.

The expression on the face of the True Man Xuan Ying of Medicine God Valley changed.

Of the fifteen soul tablets placed in front of him, one suddenly shattered.
