I'm in the world of cultivation, and I get a system for becoming a wealthy urban tycoon?

The crimson beam of light connected heaven and earth, its imposing presence accompanied by ripples of spiritual energy.

Foundation Establishment cultivators within a radius of several thousand kilometers could see the crimson light shooting into the sky.

If it is a Golden Core stage cultivator, the entire Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain can sense it.

Even if a Nascent Soul cultivator is separated by half of Qin Province, they can still sense the subtle changes in the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

In an instant, the entire Tianduan Mountain Range was thrown into complete turmoil.

Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain.

The Supreme Elder Song Huai, who had gone out to investigate, had returned to the main peak.

The burly man with short, gray hair and wearing a dark red animal skin robe stood before Ye Qianyuan and the group of elders, telling them what he had seen and heard: "I traced the nine auras back to where they appeared, and all the mortal towns and cultivator markets along the way were safe and sound. Those nine fellow Daoists must have just been passing by."

Ye Qianyuan and the others looked at each other in bewilderment.

One of the middle-aged female cultivators, dressed in a crimson robe, frowned and sneered, "Just passing by? A passing cultivator, so brazenly releasing your True Monarch aura?! How utterly rude! If every passing Nascent Soul cultivator acted like this, wouldn't Qin Prefecture descend into chaos?"

Ye Qianyuan gave a wry smile and advised, "Senior Sister Feng, calm down. Although they were a bit rude, we didn't suffer any losses. Let's just let this matter drop."

The others exchanged glances and nodded.

Those were nine Nascent Soul stage experts!

If we really investigate this matter, it will not benefit anyone.

Now that there has been no significant loss under the jurisdiction of Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain, they can only tolerate the other party's rudeness and let the matter pass.

An elderly man with gray hair and beard waved his hand and sighed helplessly, saying, "Alright, alright, everyone disperse. These past two days have truly terrified me. At my advanced age, I fear the sect will be destroyed in my generation."

The others also gave a wry smile.

Despite being a dominant force in Qin Province and a powerful sect in the entire Eastern Region, the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain sect still walks on thin ice.

In the world of cultivation, there's always someone stronger, and no one dares to claim they can always walk sideways.

Just as everyone was about to disperse, a spiritual energy fluctuation, connected to the changes in heaven and earth, came from afar.

Ye Qianyuan and the others froze.

They exchanged a glance, then simultaneously vanished from their spot, returning to the skies above the main peak.

Although the abnormality deep within the Heavenly Broken Mountains could not be directly seen from the location of Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain, the powerful and keen divine sense of the Nascent Soul stage cultivators allowed them to immediately detect the source of the changes in the world.

"A rare and precious treasure has appeared in the direction of the Heavenly Fracture Mountain Range!"

"Its spiritual energy is like fire, and its fire elemental laws are extremely concentrated... It's a supreme treasure of the fire element!"

"Master, you stay here and guard the sect. We're going!"

Excitement was evident on everyone's faces.

Without a word, the several elders transformed into streaks of light and soared into the sky, their respective guardian beasts following closely behind, heading towards the direction of that rare and precious treasure.

Those are rare and precious materials that can cause changes in the world!

Even if they are not needed right now, they can be kept in the sect's treasury to increase the sect's resources!

No one would complain about having too many rare and precious natural resources.

Ye Qianyuan reached out his hand, wanting to go with them, but then he thought of the sect and the events of the past two days.

He silently withdrew his hand, a helpless, bitter smile appearing on his face.

"Go on, go on, I'll stay and guard the house."

…………

Golden Rainbow Sword Sect.

Deep within the forbidden area, the spiritual mist still surged like a tide.

Qi Yunshu, Lin Xuanchen, and Han Qianshan also noticed the change in the spiritual energy of heaven and earth immediately.

The three transformed into golden light and soared into the sky above the forbidden area. Their gazes pierced through layers of void, as if they could directly see the crimson pillar of light rising into the sky from the depths of the Heavenly Broken Mountains.

Han Qianshan grinned, a hint of eager anticipation flashing in his eyes: "It's so far, probably over 100,000 kilometers, right? Is that the Tianduan Mountains? Shall we go take a look?"

Lin Xuanchen immediately shook his head, a calm and composed smile on his face: "What's the point of going? These rare treasures are indeed quite good, but the concentration of spiritual energy within our forbidden area is in no way inferior to them. Let them fight and compete for them. We'll just sit back and watch the flowers bloom and fade."

Qi Yunshu nodded slightly and smiled, "Grandmaster Uncle is right. Moreover, these rare and precious materials are not treasures of the Metal Path or the Sword Path, so they are useless to us."

Han Qianshan was initially quite eager to try.

Compared to the more composed Lin Xuanchen and Qi Yunshu, he was more warlike.

However, although Han Qianshan was warlike, he was not stupid. Naturally, he would not hold a treasure mountain and still covet things he could not use.

Han Qianshan shrugged: "Fine, if I don't want to go, I don't want to go."

Lin Xuanchen withdrew his gaze from the distance and turned to Qi Yunshu, his expression becoming more serious. He asked, "I heard from those youngsters from the Qin family that Fellow Daoist Eleven brought back three heretical cultivators? One of them is even a Golden Core cultivator? What's going on?"

Upon hearing this, Han Qianshan frowned immediately, his initial fighting spirit fading, replaced by a look of seriousness in his eyes: "This evil cultivator has reached the Golden Core stage? How many people has he consumed?"

Using cultivators as the great medicine for cultivation is ultimately against the natural order.

For an ordinary evil cultivator to cultivate from Qi Refining to Golden Core, the amount of essence and spiritual energy they consume along the way is unimaginable to most people.

A heretical cultivator who can reach the Golden Core stage already possesses extraordinary methods.

Hearing their words, Qi Yunshu's smile faded slightly, and he slowly shook his head, saying, "We haven't gotten anything out of them yet. Fellow Daoist Eleven and I have personally examined them, and they all have an extremely strange evil restriction within their bodies. Forcibly searching their souls will only trigger a backlash from the restriction, destroying even their divine souls. As for torture, it won't work on them either."

At this point, Qi Yunshu paused, his voice slightly heavy, and said, "However, there must be something wrong with the heretical cultivation method they practice. Consuming blood pills and spirit pills in a short period of time should have caused them to suffer from qi deviation long ago, but the spiritual energy in these three people's bodies is still relatively stable. Moreover, there must be an organization behind them, and that Golden Core stage heretical cultivator is probably not the strongest."

Upon hearing this, both Lin Xuanchen and Han Qianshan fell silent.

While legitimate unorthodox practices may pose some dangers, they do not have a significant impact on the cultivation world as a whole.

After all, the drawbacks of unorthodox cultivation methods are undeniable.

The more essence and spiritual energy one devours, the more unstable one's foundation becomes, and the more severe the intrusion of resentment becomes. Those who can cultivate to the Golden Core stage are already extremely rare, let alone the Nascent Soul stage.

However, if a heretical cultivation method were to emerge that could use living beings as a near-limitless elixir without causing demonic possession, then the problem would be much bigger.

After all, any cultivator who knows that they can improve their cultivation by absorbing the blood and spiritual energy of others, who can resist the temptation of power?

If they eat one person today, they'll eat ten people tomorrow... Eventually, all the cultivators in the entire Canglan Realm will be eaten.

After devouring cultivators, they devour mortals; after devouring mortals, they devour other living beings…

In the end, the entire Canglan Realm will be completely devoured!

Lin Xuanchen slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air, a hint of coldness appearing in his aged eyes. He said, "Then we must find their lair as soon as possible and eradicate them completely to prevent them from causing a calamity for the evil path."

Qi Yunshu nodded slightly: "Okay."

Throughout the history of the Eastern Region, there have been several instances of calamities caused by heretical forces.

The most severe of these was a bloodlust that occurred nearly a million years ago.

It is said that the disaster of that year caused the entire Eastern Region to suffer a spiritual rupture for several years.

Seven out of every ten cultivators die, while nine out of every ten ordinary people die.

Of the original three Divine Transformation Immortal Sects in the Eastern Region, one was destroyed, leaving only two.

Many of the top forces at the Nascent Soul stage were directly defeated, even having their lineages severed.

Not to mention the small families and forces at the Golden Core stage and below, who were nothing more than insignificant grains of sand back then.

That was an extremely terrifying and bloody period.

It is said that the bloodthirsty tide had already begun to affect several other major domains, and it was only with the arrival of a large number of cultivators from other major domains that the bloodthirsty tide was completely extinguished.

As for how the Bloodlust Tide was formed and who was behind it, all the relevant records in the books were collected and destroyed by the two Immortal Transformation Sects.

The existing ancient books only contain a few simple words about that catastrophe.

That is why we must pay utmost attention to any evil practitioners who exhibit similar behavior, even if it is just a hint!

The three were silent for a moment.

The spiritual mist in the forbidden area surged endlessly beneath my feet, and the distant mountain peaks appeared and disappeared in the mist, like a painting outlined with a few strokes of light ink.

Qi Yunshu broke the silence first. He sorted out his thoughts and said, "Once that kid Liu Yifeng breaks through his cultivation, he will soon be at the late stage of the Golden Core realm. The 'Bewitching Heart and Forgetting Worries Record' has a level of mastery over the Dao of Divine Sense that our Golden Rainbow Sword Sect's techniques cannot match. Perhaps he has some way to find out something."

Lin Xuanchen and Han Qianshan nodded silently.

…………

Tianduan Mountains.

The sky grew increasingly gloomy.

Thick, dark clouds, like an overturned inkwell, spread outwards from the center of the sky in all directions.

Purple lightning flashed between the clouds, occasionally bursting forth with a blinding white light that illuminated the continuous mountain range below in a ghastly white light.

The air was thick with the muggy heat of an impending downpour, along with a strange, hot yet fragrant aroma wafting from the depths of the mountains.

The cultivator cities surrounding the entire Tianduan Mountain Range have completely erupted in excitement.

One after another, beams of light lit up the skies above the cities.

One by one, cultivators at the Golden Core stage and even the Nascent Soul stage soared into the air, transforming into streaks of light and fleeing into the depths of the Heavenly Broken Mountains.

The crimson pillar of light resembled a lighthouse suspended in the sky, attracting countless cultivators to flock towards it like moths to a flame.

Everyone rushed to be first, afraid of falling behind.

Amidst the surging tide of escape lights, many cultivators suddenly caught a faint white shadow flitting past from their side or rear.

The white figure was incredibly fast; just moments before it was at the edge of the horizon, it had already overtaken it in the blink of an eye.

They instinctively turned their heads to look, and their eyes widened in shock as they stopped their escape in horror.

It was an ancient bronze chariot pulled by nine cloud dragons, traveling on the clouds.

Yun Jiao's steps were neither hurried nor slow, his pace was calm and elegant, but his speed was indeed extremely fast, covering several miles in the blink of an eye.

The bronze chariot's body is covered with dense array patterns that gleam with a pale golden light, creating a striking contrast with the gloomy sky.

The nine-tiered canopy was layered upon layered, with bronze tassels hanging from the edges of each layer, swaying gently in the wind.

The array on the canopy slowly rotated, blocking the raging purple lightning and dark clouds outside.

From a distance, the entire ancient vehicle seemed to be enveloped in a pale golden halo, making it particularly eye-catching against the gloomy sky.

It's like an immortal being on a journey!
