Starting Liver Proficiency from Alchemy

The chaos subsided and space returned to normal.

Han Yi discovered that there was a huge teleportation array under his feet. Countless runes were spread out on the ground, interconnected, and formed a huge array base.

Above his head was a yellow Taoist formation that enveloped the place where he was. With a sweep of his Taoist thoughts, he knew that the place where he was was a place with an area roughly equivalent to that of two fairy realms, with yellow Taoist light floating in the chaotic land.

The Dao thought expanded outward, and Han Yi suddenly raised his head and looked beyond the land. Far away, at the edge where the Dao thought could sense, there was an extremely vast sacred mountain with no bottom or top visible, standing in the chaos.

Han Yi understood instantly that this sacred mountain must be the Demonic Witch Mountain.

The land he was on at the moment was a piece of land surrounding the Demon Witch Mountain. There was not just one such piece of land around the Demon Witch Mountain, but countless of them.

Han Yi's expression did not change much. He had seen the Ancestral God Star and the Eternal Dao Mark. Relatively speaking, the Demon Witch Mountain was far less shocking than the Eternal Dao Mark, not to mention the Ancestral God Star.

He withdrew his gaze and looked outside the formation.

At this moment, outside the formation, a female cultivator in Taoist robes was looking at him. Han Yi took a step forward and came in front of the female cultivator.

"My name is Han Yi, nice to meet you, fellow Taoist." Han Yi spoke first.

Opposite him, Jiang Xiying looked at Han Yi with flickering eyes. He was quite interested in Han Yi. It was rare to see a genius who had leaped from a Golden Immortal to a Dao realm in just six thousand years.

Moreover, when Han Yi appeared just now, his expression did not change much after seeing the huge Demon Witch Mountain, which was clearly seen by her.

She instantly knew that the person in front of her was by no means simple.

She was originally worried that although the Dao Realm cultivator she had recruited had fast progress, his knowledge and combat power were average. But at this moment, this idea was overturned by her because she couldn't see through the other party either.

She composed herself and said:

"Let me introduce myself first. I am Jiang Xiying, the second mountain master of Demon Witch Mountain."

"Welcome, Fellow Daoist Han."

The voice was pleasant to the ear, even better than it had been through the teleportation array not long ago.

Han Yi smiled slightly: "Thank you, Brother Jiang."

Jiang Xiying led him to the side and said, "Fellow Daoist Han, come this way. I will take you to the Demon Martial Hall first and exchange your identity token for a purple token corresponding to the Dao realm."

Immediately, Jiang Xiying walked forward, and Han Yi followed without hesitation.

"To be honest, this is my third time leaving the Great World and setting foot in Primal Chaos. My knowledge of Demon Witch Mountain is only from my fellow Dao Realm senior brother, so it is not comprehensive. Can Brother Jiang help me solve this puzzle?"

Jiang Xiying glanced at the indifference on Han Yi's face and found that there was no trace of uneasiness on Han Yi's face. She couldn't help but look up to him a little more.

"The origin of Demon Witch Mountain can be traced back to the beginning of chaos."

"Twelve ancient witches who were born from chaos and were born as gods established the Witch Mountain. Each of these twelve powerful men gave rise to a corresponding branch, and together they form the Twelve Witch Branches, which exist until today."

"The Demonic Witch Mountain in Fuheng Dao Domain, which is what you see now, was built by the Sword Demon Witch. Therefore, this place in the Demonic Witch Mountain is also called the Sword Witch Mountain."

"..."

"There are a total of ninety-nine mountain masters in Jianwu Mountain. These ninety-nine mountain masters, together with the mountain spirit of Mowu Mountain, make up the upper echelons of Jianwu Mountain."

"Among the ninety-nine mountain masters, the first mountain master, whose Taoist name is Sword Wizard, is one of the twelve ancient beings. However, the first mountain master is rarely in the mountain. In fact, according to records, he has not returned for three Chaos Eras."

"And I belong to the second mountain master of Demon Witch Mountain, the Taoist Master Shengyan."

"The Taoist master has been in seclusion for 130,000 years. If he comes out, he will definitely be able to break through to the Heavenly Venerate and become the second Heavenly Venerate of our Sword Wu Mountain."

Han Yi felt a slight chill in his heart when he heard this.

The Taoist master Jiang Xiying mentioned is not the Taoist ancestor, nor the master of the Taoist temple, but the master of the Great Dao.

This title is a special name for beings in the Hedao realm.

He also knew that in addition to Taoist Master Shengyan who was in seclusion and had achieved a breakthrough to the level of Heavenly Venerate, there were four other Taoist masters in Demon Witch Mountain, namely the third to sixth mountain masters.

As Jiang Xiying continued to narrate, Han Yi learned more and more about Jianwu Mountain.

After a while, Jiang Xiying took him away from the floating land and went to the vast Demon Witch Mountain. In a palace on the mountainside, he processed and exchanged the sword card for Han Yi.

From the Black Iron level Sword Apprentice Sword Card, it skipped several levels and directly changed to the Dao Realm level Purple Sword Card.

On one side of the sword card, there was a majestic sacred mountain carved, which looked very similar to the Demon Witch Mountain where he was at the moment, and on the other side, there was a word "Yi".

It is naturally impossible for a sword disciple to engrave his own name on the sword badge, but for a Taoist, there is a character representing his own title on the purple sword badge.

After Han Yi got the sword card, he put it away. Jiang Xiying saw it and breathed a sigh of relief.

Her main purpose in recruiting Han Yi was to let Han Yi compete for the position of mountain master and also to make a profit for herself.

But this goal may not necessarily be achieved.

And if Han Yi fails, she will persuade him to choose to join the second mountain lord camp. In this way, the second mountain lord camp will have one more Dao realm existence.

In Jianwu Mountain, the mountain masters naturally do not play the same game as one, but each has their own ideas and will compete for resources.

Taoist Master Shengyan has been in seclusion for too long, and the second mountain master's voice has become increasingly weak. Therefore, for Jiang Xiying, recruiting one more Taoist to join would also have potential benefits in the long run.

And if Han Yi succeeds in the election and becomes the mountain master, then since he is new here and has his own connections, he can also cooperate with the second mountain master's camp. This will also provide a strong backing for the second mountain master, which is naturally better.

All in all, there are many benefits.

In fact, in addition to bringing Han Yilai, Jiang Xiying also recruited four other Dao Realm masters. However, the qualifications of those four Dao Realm masters were average, and they were not the Dao Sons favored by a big world.

There are many people in the Demon Witch Mountain who act like her.

"Next, I will take Fellow Daoist Han to the temporary cave. You can practice in the cave. Nine years later, the competition for the selection of the mountain master will officially begin. Fellow Daoist, you should make good adjustments during this period."

"Also, if you have any questions, you can ask me at any time."

Han Yi's eyes flickered. He actually had two questions he wanted to ask, so he took this opportunity to ask:
"I do have two doubts. I wonder if you would be able to help me solve them."

Seeing Jiang Xiying nod, Han Yi continued:

"The first is that the requirements for the mountain master of Demon Witch Mountain do not seem to be strict. Even an outsider like me can participate as long as he holds a sword card. And as far as I know, it is not difficult to obtain the Demon Witch Sword Card."

Jiang Xiying smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist Han, you don't know." "Since the establishment of Sword Witch Mountain, countless years have passed, and the system on the mountain has been modified countless times. Finally, it was decided by the first mountain master, Sword Witch Tianzun, to accept powerful Chaos masters. As long as they do not violate the nine fundamental mountain laws of Magic Witch Mountain, everything else is fine."

Han Yi also knew the nine fundamental mountain laws that Jiang Xiying mentioned. Those were nine common regulations, such as not leaking important intelligence of the Demon Witch Mountain.

“And if one violates the Nine Laws, even if he is promoted to Heavenly Venerable, he can be easily killed as long as the First Mountain Master takes action.”

"With the Dinghai Divine Pearl in Jianwu Mountain, even if it is destroyed, it can be rebuilt quickly."

Han Yi nodded slightly when he heard this. He naturally understood what Jiang Xiying said. With the First Mountain Master in Demon Witch Mountain, no matter what happened, it could be handled. The First Mountain Master, Sword Witch Heavenly Master, was the greatest guarantee.

His face straightened and he asked his second question.

"I still have one question. That is, in the Demon Witch Mountain today, there is a gap in the number of strong people at the level of Heavenly Venerate. In other words, why is there only one Heavenly Venerate? The second mountain master, that is, the Holy Flame Taoist Master, is still one step away from being promoted to Heavenly Venerate."

Han Yi had this doubt when Taoist Xuanzang mentioned the strength of the Lord of Mowu Mountain in Suizhu Hall. He asked his senior brother Xuanzang at that time, but unfortunately Xuanzang didn't know either.

Jiang Xiying was slightly stunned. Obviously, she didn't know the answer to this question, or rather, she had never thought about this question.

“I have never thought about this question.”

"Something strange."

Jiang Xiying frowned slightly, her eyes filled with doubt.

Obviously, Jiang Xiying also realized that something was wrong.

"I will keep this question in mind for the time being. I will investigate further later. When I meet you next time, if I come to a conclusion, I will share it with you."

Han Yi thanked him: "Thank you for clearing up my doubts, fellow Taoist."

After a while, Jiang Xiying sent Han Yi to a cave and left again.

After watching the other person leave, Han Yi withdrew his gaze.

It is called a cave, but where he is at the moment is actually a secret realm. This secret realm is a special space separated from the normal space of the Demon Witch Mountain by the existence of the Tao realm.

This secret realm was not far from the Demon Witch Mountain and was similar to the land he had arrived at after being teleported before. Moreover, the immortal power in the secret realm was extremely rich, which was suitable for practicing Taoism.

Han Yi was not picky about the environment for cultivation, so he simply explored this secret realm and found that there were cultivators living in this secret realm, but the secret realm was divided into two floors, he was on the upper floor, and those low-level cultivators were on the lower floor. The fairy spirit on the upper floor was rich, while the spiritual energy on the lower floor was average.

He didn't have too many thoughts about the cave he had been arranged for. He just decided to make the best of it since he was already there.

With a wave of his hand, he took out a black Taoist sword. This Taoist sword was not one of his original four swords, but one that Taoist Ancestor Wanjie bought from outside in recent years. The purpose of this was naturally to give it to Han Yi to use and to enhance Han Yi's strength.

Of course, Han Yi also gave the several Taoist artifacts he got from Wanchao Daozu to Wanjie Daozu to prevent the Immortal Court from suffering losses.

This black Taoist sword is named Xuanxiang and comes from the Kunlun fairyland.

In addition to the Xuanxiang Dao Sword, he also had a Dao sword that had not yet been refined, the Xuli Dao Sword.

These two Dao swords are both low-level Dao swords. Combined with Han Yi's original four Dao swords, they can greatly enhance the power of his Void Sword Realm.

However, it didn't take long for Han Yi to refine the Xuan Xiang Dao Sword roughly. He expected that before the competition with the Mountain Master, he could barely activate the power of five Dao swords.

Time flies. For a person in the Dao realm, it is just the blink of an eye and nine years have passed.

In the secret realm, Han Yi stood up, took the black Taoist sword from his knees, and walked out of the secret realm with the sword in hand.

Outside the secret realm is the void of chaos, and across a section of chaotic space is the enormous Demon Witch Mountain.

He suddenly sensed something and looked to the side, and found himself within the range of Daoist perception. Three Dao realm masters also walked out of the secret realm of the cave heaven and land. One of them had a gentle expression on his face, and nodded and greeted Han Yi and the other Dao realm masters. The other two had no expression on their faces, and seemed a little indifferent.

Han Yi also saluted and walked towards the Demon Witch Mountain in front.

He already knew that the election for the mountain master this time would take place in a special place on the Demon Witch Mountain.

Witch Tower.

This witch tower was moved from other places by the First Mountain Lord and placed on the Demon Witch Mountain.

This witch tower has a total of nine floors. The lower six floors are for use by the Dao realm, while the upper three floors are only accessible to the Tianzun realm.

This time, the mountain master assessment was held on the lower six floors, or to be more precise, on the bottom three floors.

In the Demon Witch Mountain, if a mountain lord dies, the mountain lords ranked later will be able to fill his position in turn. This time, the candidates for the election are the last nine of the ninety-nine mountain lords.

According to what Jiang Xiying said before, there are four Dao Fruit level players in this election, and the rest are at the first step of Dao Realm, and the number of participants at the first step of Dao Realm is as many as more than three hundred.

Those who can achieve the Tao realm, whether in the big world or in the chaos, are not ordinary people. They are all people who have achieved the pinnacle of cultivation. Talent, luck, opportunity, and character are all indispensable.

Moreover, the Demon Witch Mountain where they are located is the Demon Witch of Sword, and the sword is a weapon of killing, so its combat power is one level stronger than other realms of Tao.

Next, these more than 300 sword masters will compete for nine places. One can imagine how difficult it is.

Han Yi went towards the place where the Witch Tower was. On the way, more and more Dao Realms gathered there. They gathered at a distance from each other, without talking to each other, and were wary of each other.

The invisible sword intent permeated and collided in the chaos, but it was mainly for testing, and it was withdrawn at the first touch, without letting go.

When they arrived in front of the Demonic Witch Mountain Taoist formation, Han Yi took out the purple sword card. A ray of light appeared on the sword card and fell towards the Taoist formation. The Taoist formation then cracked, allowing him to step in alone.

After stepping into the Taoist formation, Han Yi saw a nine-story wizard tower.

What surprised him was that this witch tower did not look very tall from the outside and looked rather ordinary.

The height of each floor is about ten meters, and the height of the entire tower is less than one hundred meters.

The color of the tower is dark gray, and its appearance is the most common and ordinary Taoist tower.

At this moment, in the air around this gray tower less than a hundred meters high, there are hundreds of monks standing, sitting cross-legged, resting with their eyes closed, or constantly exploring the surroundings.

Han Yi looked at the Taoists in front of the gray tower and his eyes moved.

Among those Taoists, there was one that he was familiar with, because he had met him once in the chaos outside the ancient halo.

He is the third master of Demon Witch Mountain, Master Wangxi. (End of this chapter)
