Being a talent in the Chusheng Demon Sect

Chapter 296 What a group of sword-wielding warriors!

A great realm where fruition levels exist!
Before the Yun family patriarch finished speaking, Lü Yang understood the importance of the mass grave in Jiangnan, since a Great Realm Heaven was equivalent to a new second-grade true skill.

"The Demon-Slaying True Man is the Third Elder of our Sword Pavilion. He reached the late Foundation Establishment stage and the Great True Man cultivation level long ago, and has already begun to plan for his position. However, most of the second-grade true techniques in the Great Realm under the Sword Pavilion's jurisdiction cannot meet his requirements. Only this newly emerged one is very suitable."

"Therefore, this time it was the Demon-Slaying Master who took the lead."

"Furthermore, barring any unforeseen circumstances, the Demonic Sect shouldn't have discovered anything amiss with the mass grave yet, so True Immortal Demon Slayer plans to strike first."

Under the narration of the Yun family patriarch, Lü Yang quickly learned the secret of the mass grave.

To understand this matter, we must go back to the predecessor of the mass grave, which was the small realm that was taken over by various True Lords as a battlefield for seizing the Dao.

The origins of that small realm are not simple.

Although it doesn't even have Foundation Establishment cultivators and is only fit to be a battlefield for Qi Refining disciples to seize the Dao, it is an appendage of another Great Realm Heaven.

Its name is [Mystic Spirit Realm].

The predecessor of the Jiangnan Mass Grave was called the [Luofan Realm]. Generally, after cultivators in the [Luofan Realm] reach their peak, they will ascend to the [Xuanling Realm].

As a result of being captured, the area became a battlefield for seizing power, and the [Fallen Mortal Realm] lost contact with the [Mysterious Spirit Realm]. This might not have been a problem for a day or two, but after ten or twenty years, the cultivators of the [Mysterious Spirit Realm] also noticed something was wrong, so they sent cultivators down to the mortal realm to investigate.

As a result, they ended up getting themselves into trouble.

The cultivator from the [Mysterious Spirit Realm] is not weak; his cultivation level is also at the Foundation Establishment stage. However, the [Mysterious Spirit Realm] does not call him Foundation Establishment, but rather Human Immortal.

Unfortunately, that immortal was not very lucky.

On that day, the Demon-Slaying Master of Sword Pavilion happened to pass by. Upon seeing him, the other party attempted to search his soul, but was easily suppressed and captured by the Demon-Slaying Master.

Thus, the [Mysterious Spirit Realm] could no longer be hidden.

"According to that prisoner, the Xuanling Realm is a supreme realm, the abode of immortals and gods, with five ranks of immortals surrounding the Heavenly Court, each with their own duties."

"The five ranks of immortals are: Heaven, Earth, Man, God, and Ghost."

"When a cultivator from the lower realm ascends to immortality, their physical body shatters, but their soul is cleansed, becoming a [Ghost Immortal]. They are granted a fiefdom and appointed to govern a region, becoming a [God Immortal].

"Until the merits are perfected, the physical body is reshaped by the power of incense and vows, and one returns to the human realm, thus becoming a [human immortal].

"Traveling through the Three Mountains and passing through the Five Sacred Peaks, dwelling in the world without governing it, this is called a [Earth Immortal]."

"Those who have merit on the path and perform good deeds on earth receive heavenly books and enter the heavenly court to govern the world and manage the heavens are called [Celestial Immortals]."

As for the realm above [Celestial Immortal], that Human Immortal was not mentioned further, but even without his explanation, Lü Yang could roughly deduce the corresponding realm.

'He's probably a true lord!'

Lu Yang pondered to himself, no wonder a mass grave in Jiangnan could alarm the True Lords of the Sword Pavilion and the Holy Sect. The value of the [Mysterious Spirit Realm] is evident.

After all, it was a great realm where there were established beings, a veritable feast for a True Monarch. Even a sip of soup could satisfy a Foundation Establishment True Person. Unfortunately, his cultivation level was too low at this point in time, so he couldn't even get the details, let alone participate.

Thinking of this, Lü Yang's mind immediately became active.

"A vast realm! If we could seize this opportunity to enter and plunder it, it would definitely greatly accelerate the nurturing of my immortal body!"

But how do we get in?

Lu Yang's eyes darted around, and he quickly came up with an idea:

"I'm currently operating in the Sword Pavilion in a clandestine manner, so getting in is definitely out of the question. But if I can't get in through the Sword Pavilion, I can try the Holy Sect!"

"As long as I tell the Holy Sect the secret of the mass grave beforehand and send it to True Person Chongguang, once the Holy Sect True Lord confirms my information, I can make contact with the Holy Sect. Then I can say that I am a reincarnated True Person of the Holy Sect who infiltrated the Sword Pavilion and wishes to remain anonymous!"

Although I am in Jian Ge, I have always been a member of the Holy Sect!
More importantly, Master Chongguang had told Lü Yang how to contact him in his previous life, and the specially made flying message spirit book guaranteed to be delivered directly to him.

This alone should be enough to convince Master Chongguang.

'Let's do it this way!'

With this thought in mind, Lü Yang immediately took action, igniting the completed flying letter with his magic power and watching it transform into a beam of light that soared into the sky. Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief.

At the same time, Yun Miaozhen, who had been kneeling under the desk cultivating for a long time, also emerged, wiping her mouth. Her cultivation at the late stage of Qi Refining had made significant progress.

Immediately afterwards, Lü Yang's expression turned solemn.

Since we intend to get a share of the pie from the mass grave incident, we can no longer afford to be slow in improving our strength; we must find a way to speed things up.

'At least I need to recover to the mid-Foundation Establishment stage before taking any action!'

Thinking of this, Lü Yang immediately looked at the Yun family patriarch, Yun Miaozhen, and Xiuxin Zhenren: "Is there any other way to obtain more Gengjin spiritual items?"

The three of them looked at each other.

Then Xiuxin Zhenren said in a low voice, "Reporting to Master, this is actually not difficult. We just need to find a few more forces that are colluding with the Jiangbei Demon Sect."

"Can you find it?"

“I can arrange it.”

The Yun family patriarch thought for a moment and said, "As long as I spread the word that I will thoroughly investigate the demonic path, all the sects and forces in the vicinity will surely feel insecure."

"Under this pretext, each family should be able to extract quite a few spiritual items."

Lu Yang: “.”

"Wouldn't this be a bit too conspicuous?" Lü Yang hesitated, not because he couldn't bear to do it, but mainly because he was worried that doing so would attract the attention of the Sword Pavilion.

After all, extorting money from the sects under one's jurisdiction in this way doesn't seem like the right way.

However, the next second, the Yun family patriarch looked over with a surprised expression: "Master, what's so ostentatious about this? It's just a routine matter."

"what?"

Lu Yang was taken aback upon hearing this. Seeing this, the Yun family patriarch had no choice but to explain, "In Jiangnan, our Sword Pavilion did not hinder the development of these forces. They owed our Sword Pavilion a debt of karma. This is a good opportunity to settle it and also to fulfill their wishes. What is there to be surprised about?"

You call this severing the cause and effect?
Lu Yang was speechless. In Jiangbei, even the Holy Sect Master called this kind of thing robbery, or more politely, begging for alms. He never expected it could be explained like this.

The right path is truly different.

After the Yun family patriarch explained it this way, Lü Yang finally understood. In Jiangnan, most forces that wanted to develop were related to Jiangbei.

It is common knowledge that it is easier to make money when trade is open.

These forces may not collude with the Holy Sect, but they will definitely need to travel to and from Jiangbei to transport goods in order to accumulate their first pot of gold for the development of their forces.

However, according to the Sword Pavilion's standards, this would be considered collusion with the demonic path.

However, the Sword Pavilion usually doesn't interfere much and just pretends not to see it. Only when there is a need will they bring it out to settle a matter of cause and effect.

This is actually the old trick of the Sword Pavilion. First, they deliberately let local forces develop, and development requires contact with Jiangbei. Contact means colluding with the demonic path. They usually ignore it and wait until they are fattened up before slaughtering them. Meanwhile, they themselves remain pure and innocent, still the leader of the righteous path.

As for the disciples of the Sword Pavilion, they only need to focus on practicing their swordsmanship.

As for external items such as pills, magic weapons, and talismans, just like Hidden Sword Manor, Sword Pavilion handed them all over to its affiliated sects, allowing them to do whatever they wanted with them.

While others hoard food, I hoard guns; his house is my granary.

This is even more outrageous than the Holy Sect. After all, the Holy Sect Masters only go down the mountain to rob when they are broke, while the Sword Pavilion is directly sucking the blood out of Jiangnan.

The key point is that they did it very well.

Eliminating evil and upholding justice is a noble cause, and no one can find fault with it.

After thoroughly understanding the operational mechanisms of the entire Jiangnan region under the jurisdiction of Jian Ge, Lü Yang couldn't help but exclaim, "They really are a bunch of sword-wielding geniuses!"

It seems I must reform and develop Jian Ge properly, and bring it back to the right path!
　I made a really stupid mistake yesterday. I set my alarm for 3:30, but I set it for 3:30 in the afternoon instead. As a result, I didn't get up until after 4:40. I only had enough time to write three chapters. I'll finish the fourth chapter before 10 p.m.
