Bringing the farm to another world

Chapter 15944 Upgrade (Part 3)

Ran Wen was unaware of what these people were thinking. He was now truly in high spirits. He knew all too well what it meant to become a cultivator at the power level. It meant that he had truly become a disciple of the Seven Emotions Sword Sect.

He was clearly an outer disciple of the Seven Emotions Sword Sect, so why is it said that he has only now truly become a disciple of the Seven Emotions Sword Sect? Actually, their status as disciples of the Seven Emotions Sword Sect before was not entirely accurate. They had not yet reached the power level, so although they were nominally disciples of the Seven Emotions Sword Sect, they were actually only peripheral disciples and could not be considered true outer disciples, even though they lived in the outer area of ​​the Seven Emotions Sword Sect.

Many people may have a misconception that as long as someone lives on the Seven Emotions Sword Sect continent, they are an outer disciple of the Seven Emotions Sword Sect from the moment they are born. They are not wrong in this regard. In name, they are indeed all outer disciples of the Seven Emotions Sword Sect. However, in the eyes of the Seven Emotions Sword Sect, they are just ordinary people and cannot be considered outer disciples.

Every year, the Seven Emotions Sword Sect conducts a screening of all eligible children across the continent. If a talented child is discovered, they are brought back to the outer sect of the Seven Emotions Sword Sect for training. These children are nominally outer disciples, but everyone in the Seven Emotions Sword Sect knows that they are actually the true outer disciples. They can only become true outer disciples if they cultivate to the "Shi" level before the age of twenty-five. If they cannot cultivate to the "Shi" level before the age of twenty-five, then they are no longer considered outer disciples and are assigned to some branch halls of the Seven Emotions Sword Sect to manage ordinary people. Because they have been trained by the Seven Emotions Sword Sect for so many years, their strength is much stronger than that of ordinary people. Moreover, there are many people on the Seven Emotions Sword Sect continent, making them perfect for managing ordinary people. Those who do not reach the "Shi" level by the age of twenty-five may never reach it in their lifetime, so their lifespan will not be very long. It is precisely for this reason that the Seven Emotions Sword Sect does not have too many managers.

Before the age of twenty-five, cultivators who reach the "Power Level" can become formal disciples of the Seven Emotions Sword Sect's outer sect. They will then have more time to cultivate within the sect. If they can reach the "Throne Level" before the age of forty, they will become inner disciples of the Seven Emotions Sword Sect. Of course, the earlier they reach the requirements, the better the benefits the sect will provide them.

The situation in other sects is similar to that of the Seven Emotions Sword Sect. They gather talented children together for training, while those without talent are given a cultivation technique and left to fend for themselves. If someone actually reaches the power level through that technique, they will be absorbed into the sect as an outer disciple. However, these people become cannon fodder for the sect. Almost all sects operate in this way.

In the cultivation world, no matter which sect it is, except for the Blood Slaughter Sect, no other sect could possibly have enough resources to train everyone. Therefore, this method is the best one.

Ran Wen is twenty-two years old today. He is already quite old. Originally, he had no chance to become a formal outer disciple of the Seven Emotions Sword Sect. However, thanks to the blessing of the God of Gluttony, he became a formal outer disciple of the Seven Emotions Sword Sect. Ran Wen was naturally very happy.

Moreover, Ran Wen was very clear that he would definitely become an inner disciple of the Seven Emotions Sword Sect in the future. As long as he had the blessing of the God of Gluttony, he could keep leveling up. He believed that sooner or later, he would be able to reach the peak.

Flying is much faster than walking through the forest, and he quickly returned to the main hall of the Seven Emotions Sword Sect. As soon as he arrived, Ran Wen landed outside the main hall, put away his flying sword, and then walked into the main hall. There were too many cultivators like him, so no one paid him much attention.

Ran Wen quickly arrived at the outer sect disciple management office and went straight upstairs to re-register his strength. The disciple registering him looked at Ran Wen and couldn't believe that he had actually become a power-level cultivator. You should know that Ran Wen's name is known to many people in the outer sect of the Seven Emotions Sword Sect. Everyone knows that he was just a toy of Ge Wei, but no one expected that one day this toy could actually become a power-level cultivator.

But regardless of his thoughts, Ran Wen was now indeed a cultivator at the Shi level, so he could receive the treatment of an outer disciple. Ran Wen was assigned to a separate courtyard, and his monthly allowance was also increased significantly. Ran Wen was very satisfied with this, and he moved directly to the new courtyard.

This news quickly reached Ge Wei's ears. Ge Wei could hardly believe what he was hearing. After hearing the contents, his expression changed. Ge Wei finally realized that Ran Wen was no longer someone he could bully at will. Moreover, he understood that once Ran Wen made further progress, not only him, but even his brother would be helpless against him. He felt a sense of urgency. He had to eliminate Ran Wen before he grew stronger.

Upon thinking of this, Ge Wei immediately left his room and went directly to the inner sect of the Seven Emotions Sword Sect. He had to tell his brother about this matter so that his brother could take action and deal with Ran Wen in one fell swoop. Ran Wen could not be allowed to live any longer; keeping him alive would be a threat to the brothers.

Meanwhile, Ran Wen was sitting in his room, contemplating his future. Should he seek revenge on those outer disciples? For so many years, they had helped Ge Wei bully him. Now that he had the strength, he could finally take revenge. This was Ran Wen's first thought, but he quickly suppressed it. It wasn't that he didn't want revenge, but rather that now wasn't the right time. Who was his greatest enemy? Of course, it was Ge Wei. And behind Ge Wei stood Ge Ying, an inner disciple. This meant that although Ran Wen was now a cultivator at the Shi level, he wasn't safe. With Ge Ying, an inner disciple, around, he wouldn't be safe. Upon realizing this, Ran Wen immediately understood that he was still in great danger, even more so than before. Previously, when he lacked strength, Ge Wei wouldn't have gone all out against him. But now that he was a cultivator at the Shi level, Ge Wei couldn't do anything to him anymore. However, their feud was still there. Even if he didn't want to deal with Ge Wei, Ge Wei probably wouldn't let him go. Their enmity was too great to be resolved. Even if he wanted to resolve it, Ge Wei wouldn't believe him. Therefore, Ge Wei would definitely try to deal with him, and the best way was to ask Ge Ying for help. Ge Ying, an inner disciple, could easily deal with him.

Ran Wen took a deep breath. He felt a sense of urgency. He couldn't stay here any longer and had to leave. With that thought, Ran Wen stood up and went outside. He quickly left his courtyard and went straight to the market. There, he bought some talismans, spent all the spirit stones he had, and then left the Seven Emotions Sword Sect's main hall, plunging headlong into the Seven Emotions Forest.

For Ran Wen, the Seven Emotions Forest was the most suitable place for him. There, he could kill and eat demonic beasts, and incidentally improve his strength. He was already prepared to return to the main hall once he became a Throne-level cultivator. Until he reached the Throne level, he would stay in the Seven Emotions Forest.

Not long after Ran Wen entered the Seven Emotions Forest, Ge Wei returned to the outer sect. He had already informed Ge Ying of the situation. Ge Ying was indeed preparing to deal with Ran Wen, which was why he had sent Ge Wei back to the outer sect to gather information about Ran Wen. Only by knowing Ran Wen's exact whereabouts could he finally eliminate him.
Ge Ying and Ge Wei shared the same idea: they absolutely could not allow Ran Wen to grow up. Once Ran Wen did, neither of them would have a good life, so they had to get rid of him.

Unfortunately, Ge Wei was a step too late. Just as Ge Wei returned to the outer sect to inquire about Ran Wen, he finally heard that Ran Wen had once again left the Seven Emotions Sword Sect and entered the Seven Emotions Forest.

Upon hearing this news, Ge Wei felt a headache coming on. The Seven Emotions Forest was too vast, and finding someone there was like searching for a needle in a haystack. Ran Wen had entered the Seven Emotions Forest, so there was no way to find him anymore.

However, he thought again that Ran Wen would definitely come back, and it wouldn't be too late to deal with him after he returned from the Seven Emotions Forest. So he immediately wrote to Ge Ying, telling her about Ran Wen's entry into the Seven Emotions Forest.

Ge Ying had no choice. Although he had some influence within the inner sect, it was still unlikely that he could find someone in the Seven Emotions Forest. The Seven Emotions Forest was simply too vast, so he had no choice but to give up.

He shared the same idea as Ge Wei: Ran Wen couldn't possibly hide in the Seven Emotions Forest forever, could he? Once he returned from the Seven Emotions Forest, he would find an opportunity to deal with Ran Wen directly.

Ran Wen, however, underwent arduous cultivation in the Seven Emotions Forest. But his cultivation was different from others; he specifically hunted and ate those demonic beasts. With each hunt, his strength became even more formidable.

His speed of improvement far exceeded everyone's expectations, because none of them knew about the blessing of the God of Gluttony. Therefore, Ran Wen's improvement in strength was also far beyond everyone's imagination. For the next three months, Ran Wen hunted demonic beasts in the Seven Emotions Forest. He was like a giant locust; wherever he went, whether wild beasts or demonic beasts, once he discovered them, they could not escape the fate of death.

He also carried some talismans and had even learned some simple spells, so he would rest for a period of time every day. When he rested, he would directly enter the underground, build a small space underground, and then rest underground. After resting enough, he would come out and continue hunting monsters. In this way, three months passed by unknowingly.

That day, Ran Wen was slowly walking forward in the forest. He didn't fly in the sky, although flying would be faster, but it would also make him more easily spotted. Don't forget, he now has a great enemy. Once this enemy finds out his whereabouts, he might be in danger. So he didn't fly and kept moving forward on the ground. However, today he saw several wild beasts and monsters, but he didn't attack them because he was leveling up again.
