Cultivation of Immortality: Starting from Fu Cultivation

"It would be better if the Lord of Dongxuan City does not have the Rule Crystal in his hand, otherwise..."

Hearing this, a strange look flashed in Ling Yunhai's eyes.

He was also very curious about the origins of the Lord of Dongxuan City and where the Origin Crystal in his hand came from.

Just as the Lord of Dongxuan City said at the beginning, he naturally knew the origin and value of the Rule Crystal.

So, does the Lord of Dongxuan City really have the Rule Crystal in his hand?
Looking back in the direction of Dongxuan City, a hint of thought flashed across Ling Yunhai's eyes.

In the end, Ling Yunhai could only shake his head, suppress some unknown thoughts in his heart, and gradually move away from Dongxuan City.

Eastern Region, Yunhai Prefecture.

In a relatively remote city in Yunhaizhou.

Ye Xuanyun and Ye Ximing were currently resting in a restaurant in the city that specially catered to monks.

Try the food made from spiritual ingredients, and listen to the conversations among the many monks in the restaurant to find out some information that may be useful to them.

Although most of the cultivators who appeared in this restaurant were just low-level cultivators in this city.

But compared to Ye Xuanyun and Ye Ximing, who had just come out of Yejia Village, these low-level cultivators in the restaurant knew much more about the outside world than they did.

"In the recruitment ceremony a few years from now, I wonder which sect you plan to send your descendants to for training?"

"If possible, the three dominant forces in our Eastern Region would naturally be the first choice."

"That's right, but the Tianyuan Sect is too far away from our Yunhai Province. As for the Huangfu Immortal Clan? Let's not talk about it! So for our Yunhai Sect, the best choice is actually the Xuantian Sect."

"It's hard to say? The emperor is far away, what's so hard to say? Besides, what we are discussing are facts that everyone knows, and it's not a secret that cannot be revealed."

"That's right. It's nothing more than that the Huangfu Immortal Clan only recruits guards and servants. If you are not a genius with a peerless appearance and marry into the Huangfu Immortal Clan, you will not receive any core training at all. What's wrong with that?"

"You guys are still too young. No matter what, the Huangfu Immortal Clan is a dominant force after all."

"Even if you don't get core training after joining the Huangfu Immortal Clan, the resources you get will far exceed those of other large and small forces."

"This... I have to admit that it is true."

"Why think so much? As long as the requirements are met, the first choice must be Xuantian Sect, right? After all, our Yunhai Province is also one of the major states under the Xuantian Sect."

"I naturally wanted to join Xuantian Sect, but unfortunately my son's talent is too low, so I can only try to participate in the recruitment ceremony of Tianhai Sect, the largest sect in our Yunhai Province."

"You really picked it? In the past, the mighty Tianhai Sect might not have looked down upon your descendants. You know, the Tianhai Sect is one of the few Kongming-level affiliated forces under the Xuantian Sect."

The Kongming-level force is already the strongest level of affiliated forces among the Xuantian Sect's affiliated forces.

As for forces with greater strength, even if they were born in a large state ruled by the Xuantian Sect, they will basically choose to leave the Xuantian Sect after paying a certain price.

Then leave the state ruled by Xuantian Sect and move to other states that are not ruled by hegemonic forces for development.

Except for Xuanzhou, where the Xuantian Sect is headquartered, the other twenty major states basically have more or less Kongming-level affiliated forces.

Among them, the Kongming-level subsidiary of Xuantian Sect in Yunhai Province is what everyone calls the Tianhai Sect, the largest sect in Yunhai Province.
"This fellow Taoist is right. For a city like ours that is relatively independent and not directly ruled by any force, it is indeed great for the cultivators born there to be able to join the Tianhai Sect."

"I am going to send my youngest son, whose spiritual roots have just been detected, to the Tianhai Sect."

"If it weren't for the heavy losses suffered by the Tianhai Sect's middle and low-level disciples in recent years."

"In addition, after the advent of the great era of cultivation, the requirements for the spiritual roots and talents of the major forces for recruiting disciples have gradually been lowered. Our younger generations may not be able to join these major forces yet."

"Brother Li is right. We are a little overwhelmed by the recruitment ceremony that will be held in a few years."

Affiliated forces of the Xuantian Sect, such as the Tianhai Sect, basically have cities built by themselves and completely under their control, and there are quite a few such cities.

When recruiting disciples, Tianhai Sect will also give priority to recruiting the new generation of cultivators in its own city.

Similarly, even if a talented genius is born in a city directly controlled by Tianhai Sect, he will be directly taken into the hands of Tianhai Sect.

Otherwise, as a subsidiary force of Xuantian Sect.

How could a powerful force like Tianhai Sect possibly compete with Xuantian Sect when recruiting disciples? How could they cultivate generations of strong people to support the system of a powerful force like Tianhai Sect?

You must know that before, the stability of the heaven and earth in the Dixuan Realm was greatly improved.

There are countless teleportation arrays between the states, counties, and prefectures in the five domains of the Dixuan Realm, and travel between the states, counties, and prefectures is extremely convenient.

Even if one is just a cultivator in the Qi Refining Stage, as long as he accumulates some spirit stones, he can rely on the teleportation array to travel across states.

In this case, it would be easy for them to send their most gifted offspring to become monks in better sects.

So in this recruitment environment.

All the major sects took the initiative to build secular cities that they fully controlled and protected.

It also provides the ordinary residents in these cities with extremely superior living environments.

Before the great age comes, the major sects will basically give priority to recruiting new generation monks in the major cities under their direct jurisdiction when recruiting disciples.

When recruiting disciples from outside, sects of different levels will raise the recruitment requirements to different levels.

Anyway, they can't recruit true geniuses from the outside world, so they might as well raise the threshold when recruiting disciples to show off their own status.

After all, for all the major sects.

Except for some "prodigies", no matter how many middle and low-level disciples there are in the sect, they cannot change the situation of the sect.

As for the talent assessment of "Tian Jiao"? It can only be different for sects of different levels, and the requirements for "Tian Jiao" are naturally very different.

For example, for some small forces at the Nascent Soul stage, cultivators with five types of spiritual roots are already rare "prodigies" for them.

Hearing the discussion coming from not far away, Ye Xuanyun, who was sitting in a corner, looked at Ye Ximing beside him and fell into thought:

"Tianhai Sect? The largest sect in Yunhai Province?"

Ye Xuanyun was already thinking at this time that if he could not make it to the Xuantian Sect's recruitment ceremony, then sending Ye Ximing to the Tianhai Sect seemed to be a good choice.

After all, the Tianhai Sect is at least a Kongming-level force. It is a powerful force with Kongming-level masters in charge. Even the Ye family in their heyday was only a Yuanying-level family.

Therefore, Ye Xuanyun, who was unaware of what Ye Qingfeng, the current village chief of Yejia Village, had privately told Ye Ximing, had already thought of sending Ye Ximing to Tianhai Sect.

At this moment, a slightly smug voice was heard again from the center of the lobby on the third floor of the restaurant:

"Haha, your offspring don't have the talent, so naturally you can only settle for the next best thing."

"As for my grandson, I will naturally send him to Xuantian Sect to get better resources for training, so that he can be worthy of his talent."

Hearing this, someone in the hall immediately became dissatisfied and refuted:
"Old Bai, who doesn't know how to brag? You don't think that just because your talent meets the minimum requirements of Xuantian Sect's recruitment ceremony, you can definitely join Xuantian Sect, right? Hahaha."

"That's right. For a recruitment ceremony held by a dominant force like Xuantian Sect, talent is not the only criterion."

"Participating in the disciple recruitment ceremony held by Xuantian Sect, the better the talent, the lower the assessment requirements in other aspects and the higher the probability of being accepted into Xuantian Sect."

"But this does not mean that you will definitely be able to become a disciple of Xuantian Sect."

"If a person with five spiritual root talents participates in the Xuantian Sect's recruitment ceremony, the probability of successfully joining the Xuantian Sect is 70%."

"The probability of those with three spiritual root talents participating in the Xuantian Sect's recruitment ceremony and successfully joining the Xuantian Sect is actually less than 30%."

"If the situation in our Dixuan Realm had not changed rapidly in recent years, the great era of cultivation had not arrived, and Xuantian Sect had not lowered its requirements for recruiting disciples, I'm afraid the probability I mentioned would have dropped significantly."

"Brother Liu is absolutely right. Old Bai, even if your grandson participated in the Xuantian Sect's recruitment ceremony, what are the chances that he would be able to join the Xuantian Sect? Hahaha."

Hearing the ridicule from everyone, the old man's face instantly turned livid, but then he looked up at everyone with pride and said proudly:
"Humph, what do you know? My grandson has a unique talent of seven spiritual roots."

"As long as my grandson attends the Xuantian Sect's recruitment ceremony, it will be a sure thing for him to join the Xuantian Sect."

"What? Your grandson actually has the seventh-level spiritual root talent? Lao Bai, are you lucky?"

"It's actually a talent of seven spiritual roots? This should be the best talent ever to appear in our remote little town of Dongyun City, right?"

I heard some discussions coming from the central area of ​​the lobby.

Ye Xuanyun, who was sitting in the corner, looked at Ye Ximing, who was eating beside him, with a very obvious look of pride in his eyes, and thought to himself:
"Your grandson, with only seven spiritual roots, looks down on the Tianhai Sect. Then my Ming'er, a genius with nine spiritual roots, naturally cannot fall behind."

"Let's just forget about the Tianhai Sect."

In a short period of time, Ye Xuanyun's thoughts changed drastically.

Ye Ximing on the side didn't know all this. He was concentrating on fighting with the food made from first-grade spiritual materials.

At this moment, several more jealous voices were heard from the center of the lobby:

"Old Bai, although the state-level teleportation array in the East Region has been transformed and upgraded, it can now carry out interstate teleportation."

"But our Dongyun City is not far from Yunhaizhou's capital, and you, Old Bai, are only in the late stage of the Qi Refining Realm. I'm afraid even a dozen years won't be enough to send your grandson to Yunhaizhou City, right?"

"Plus the waiting time required to gather a thousand people each time an interstate transmission is initiated."

"With so little time left until the recruitment ceremony, your grandson might not be able to make it to the Xuantian Sect's recruitment ceremony, right? Hehehe."

"Yes, what's the use of having good talent? Isn't it true that your grandson still can't join Xuantian Sect this time?"

Hearing these jealous words, several monks who were on good terms with Old Man Bai couldn't help but speak up, wanting to get back the face for Old Man Bai.

"Humph, you are just jealous."

“Not to mention the seven-element spiritual root geniuses, even if they don’t participate in the Xuantian Sect’s recruitment ceremony, they can still get the opportunity to join the Xuantian Sect through the state capital’s existing recruitment point.”

"Not to mention that the city lord revealed to the public a few months ago that Xuantian Sect will also hold large-scale recruitment ceremonies in all the major cities under its command."

"As long as they are cultivators with five spiritual roots or above and meet the age requirements, they can participate in the Xuantian Sect's recruitment ceremony in their state capital for preliminary assessment."

"That's right. Once you pass the preliminary assessment, you will be escorted to Xuantian Sect by the Xuantian Sect elders stationed in the state capital. There is no need to rush at all."

"Lao Bai's grandson is a genius with seven spiritual roots. No matter which method he chooses to join Xuantian Sect, it is basically a sure thing."

"That's right. I don't believe that you, the sarcastic people, don't know this in your hearts."

"this,,,,,,"

Those people who had just been sneering at the old man suddenly became speechless.

Ye Xuanyun, who had been listening, was concentrating fully and taking the time to memorize all the information he heard this time.

At the same time, Ye Xuanyun touched Ye Ximing's head, which was busy eating, and the sense of urgency in his heart disappeared instantly.

"According to what they said, with Ming'er's talent, even if he missed the Xuantian Sect's recruitment ceremony, it shouldn't be difficult for him to join the Xuantian Sect."

Thinking of this, a smile suddenly appeared on Ye Xuanyun's face.

At this moment, a sinister voice came from somewhere in the hall:

"Hehehe, old man Bai, you exposed your grandson's talent in public. Aren't you afraid that someone will kill your grandson?"

As soon as these words came out, many people in the field changed their expressions and cursed in their hearts:
"Which idiot? Shouldn't this kind of thing be done quietly and secretly?"

"This has put the Bai family on guard. If they seek the city lord's protection, wouldn't it be extremely difficult to kill old man Bai's grandson?"

In addition to some people with bad intentions, many of the old man’s friends also changed their expressions and looked at him with concern.

It’s just that, compared to the changes in other people’s expressions.

When the old man heard this, he was not afraid. Instead, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes and he said with a smile:

"Hehehe, after my grandson's spiritual roots were detected yesterday, he rushed to Yunhaizhou City under the protection of the city lord."

"I'm sorry to have caused you all to worry for nothing!"

After saying this, the old man glanced around meaningfully.
