Mortal: From a Chaotic Star Sea to a True Immortal

After another half-month journey, Wei Fang arrived by boat at a place called Floating Cloud Island.

It is a place tens of thousands of miles northeast of Kuixing Island.

Tianxing City is several hundred thousand miles to the east from here.

Floating Cloud Island is covered with lush vegetation and naturally exudes a misty atmosphere.

As a cultivator, Lin Fan sensed that the concentration of spiritual energy here was probably three to five times that of Yunhua Island.

If we continue towards the center of this island, the spiritual energy could increase by seven or eight times, or even more than ten times.

Such a suitable place for cultivation is naturally not unclaimed.

The Luo Yun Sect, a sect with Core Formation cultivators, is the master of this island. And that's why Wei Fang came here.

"Luo Yun Sect... Luo Yun Sect... Interesting."

The Chaotic Star Sea is a vast sea, and its area is unimaginably large.

Not to mention the ultra-long-distance transmission between the outer sea and the inner sea, which can easily span millions of miles, even the inner sea itself is boundless.

The islands along the way are scattered like stars in the sky.

There are many with spiritual energy and many without.

It is said that there are hundreds of sects, large and small, in the Chaotic Star Sea Immortal Clan.

Wei Fang had no confidence that he could find a suitable sect in Tianxing City.

Along the way, Luo Yunzong learned from the mortals he met that his disciples were generally friendly with ordinary people, making him one of the few relatively upright immortal sects.

"Crunch crunch"

As the carriage traveled along the island, the scenery changed constantly, with vibrant colors and sometimes towering peaks.

A short while later, the carriage stopped.

The coachman lifted the curtain and said with a smile, "Young brother, we've arrived at the Luo Yun Sect's mountain gate. The rest of the journey will be inconvenient by carriage. Perhaps you could consider..."

Wei Fang picked up the package, greeted the sallow-faced man a few times, gave the driver the loose silver in his hand, and sent him away.

Looking ahead, Wei Fang saw several high mountains and great rivers, with only a winding path leading along the gravel steps.

A dozen miles away, in a relatively flat area, there are several jade pillars and beams, on which the three characters "Luo Yunzong" can be faintly seen.

Wei Fang walked along with great excitement.

Before long, they reached the end of the path. And before them lay the Luo Yun Sect, the blessed land of immortals on this island.

At this moment, the area in front of the sect was far from the noise, with only the occasional chirping of unknown birds.

There was only one person under the jade pillar corridor. From a distance, one could only see that this person was wearing a blue Taoist robe.

Perhaps sensing Wei Fang's arrival, the man got up from his desk, stretched, yawned, and said to Wei Fang, "Fellow Daoist, have you come to pay respects at the sect? Come here, come here."

He even waved to Wei Fang.

Wei Fang took a few steps forward, bowed, and said, "This humble one has come to join your sect. May I ask what your sect's rules are for entry?"

"Hey..." the young man said lazily, "We're not some famous sect here, we don't have any of that stuff."

"What's your name? How old are you? Where do you live? Have you had your spiritual roots tested? You're at the eighth level of Qi Refining, right?"

Seeing the young man take out a jade tablet and prepare to fiddle with it, Wei Fang hurriedly said, "I am 15 years old this year, from Yunhua Island, and my spiritual root has never been tested. I have been cultivating the Dao in a daze for six or seven years now."

The young man nodded upon hearing this, and after fiddling with the jade token for a while, he said, "Young brother, you are probably from a declining cultivation family. With your age and cultivation level, it shouldn't be difficult for you to enter the sect. Take this jade token! After your spiritual root aptitude is tested, go to the steward's office to have the information on the jade token engraved into the sect's register, and that will be considered your entry."

After handing the jade token to Wei Fang, the young man patted Wei Fang on the shoulder and said, "Come on, I'll take you to test your spiritual root and get your equipment while we're at it."

Wei Fang nodded and said, "Then this place...isn't it unguarded?"

The young man smiled mysteriously and pointed to a pavilion not far away, hidden by weeds, where a person was meditating.

Upon seeing this, Wei Fang bowed in that direction and quickly followed the young man.

……

"Alright, your spiritual roots have been tested and you've received your magical artifacts. This is where we'll be cultivating regularly. There are plenty of open spaces on these peaks; you can find one you like to make your cave dwelling. If you find that too much trouble, I remember there are a few unused caves up there that you can clean up and move into."

"Senior Brother Zhao, I still have a few questions. Can disciples like us in the Qi Refining stage... also have our own cave dwellings?"

Wei Fang was genuinely curious, and luckily, the senior brother Zhao Mingchang, who was at the twelfth level of Qi Refining, was easy to talk to.

Wei Fang couldn't help but start chatting with him.

Wei Fang learned a lot of information through casual conversation with him.

The founder of the Luo Yun Sect is said to be a Nascent Soul cultivator, known as Master Luo Yun.

However, he has already passed away.

Currently, the two founders who speak and make decisions within the sect are the late-stage Core Formation cultivators, namely Master Zijing, who is in the late-stage Core Formation realm, and Master Muyun, who is in the mid-stage Core Formation realm.

The two Core Formation Ancestors' cave dwellings are located on two other islands a thousand miles away from this island, connected to the sect by teleportation arrays.

On Floating Cloud Island, there was only a sect leader in the late Foundation Establishment stage, several Foundation Establishment stage senior uncles, and other Qi Refining stage disciples.

Most of the Luo Yun Sect members are ascetic cultivators who usually rely on meditation and qi cultivation and rarely leave their cave dwellings.

When a Core Formation Ancestor has something to do, he will issue a task for his disciples to carry out. The Foundation Establishment Masters do the same.

The sect has over two thousand acres of spiritual fields, and also has alchemy halls, weapon-refining pavilions, talisman-making pavilions, and other places to learn the various arts of immortals.

These are all upheld by the Foundation Establishment Masters within the sect.

The surplus of refined materials would be sold to nearby shops and merchants.

Because there is a late-stage Core Formation cultivator in charge.

Overall, they are one of the most prominent forces in this sea area, spanning thousands of miles.

Following instructions, Wei Fang found a reasonably scenic spot in a mountain stream called Qingyun Peak and spent half a day carving out a cave dwelling.

This marks the official beginning of the course.

Utilizing sectarian training has always been the mainstream practice for ordinary people.

Ultimately, rogue cultivators either have inferior spiritual roots or are used to committing murder and robbery.

But if you ask them if they'd like to join a sect to cultivate, they'd probably all nod their heads so hard they'd drop to the ground.

"Two sets of blue robes, one top-grade magic weapon, the Luo Yun Sword. A bottle of nine Purple Heart Pills, a Qi Refining stage pill, and a storage bag. The newbie benefits of the Luo Yun Sect are truly unbeatable. If you were a rogue cultivator, it would take at least ten years to gather all this."

According to Wei Fang's estimate, all the various items would cost at least 500 spirit stones to gather this fortune in the outer market.

Of course, his spiritual root aptitude played a crucial role in this.

He possesses both fire and wood spiritual roots.

In the original story, the Lu family invested in Senior Brother Lu, who had the wind spirit root, because of his extraordinary talent.

Putting everything else aside, that Azure Dragon Flag alone must be a high-end item worth at least seven or eight hundred spirit stones.

With everything completed, Wei Fang began his spiritual practice.

Everything started moving smoothly and methodically.
