I picked up the scattered attributes

Is your cultivation level too weak?

He's a demigod in the Divine Bridge Realm, you know!

Even among demigods, he could only be considered one of the most ordinary, but in the outside world, he was already above countless living beings.

"Not only is his cultivation weak, but his foundation is also very unstable, which greatly reduces his strength and severely limits his future breakthroughs."

“&#@!&%#…”

After just two short sentences, Master Ziyang no longer wanted to say another word.

Yet he had to admit that, in a sense, Feng Xia was indeed right!

Compared to Feng Xia's unfathomable strength, his cultivation level can only be described as average.

Furthermore, if his cultivation hadn't remained stagnant, he wouldn't have needed to accept the secret mission from the Xuanhuang Sacred Palace and run away, intending to use this method to clear his mind.

Completely unexpectedly, this scattering resulted in the loss of everyone.

"There will be many more things like today in the future, and you may have an even harder time, so you must improve your cultivation."

Feng Xia waved his hand, and the Xuanzhen Divine Crystal fell into the hand of Daoist Ziyang: "With the power of this Xuanzhen Divine Crystal, you can quickly eliminate the dross and refine your strength, making your power more solid. I think after that, your strength will improve again, and breaking through realms will become much easier in the future."

"They actually gave me the Mysterious Divine Crystal directly..."

Daoist Ziyang muttered something, then suddenly realized something: "Wait, what do you mean by 'it will be even more difficult'?!"

What kind of work could possibly be so strenuous that even a demigod would find it exhausting?!

At this moment, Feng Xia had already entered the Land-based Divine Ship. Facing the wary gazes, he strolled past as if he were in an empty place, and came to stand in front of a person.

Yao Wenhua.

Compared to before he left, Yao Wenhua looked much more haggard, with numerous injuries on his body, depleted blood and energy, and a slight decline in his cultivation level.

The reason he was brought here was simply because he refused to reveal the location of the key. After the five powerful figures brought out Taigong Si, they wanted to show this "tough nut" how fragile everything they were protecting was!

Now, it's actually convenient for Fengxia.

"It's been a while since we last met," Feng Xia said with a slight smile.

"summer……"

Yao Wenhua uttered a single word in a daze.

Then Feng Xia interrupted him sternly:

"Don't say any more. The Lord of the Forbidden Land sent me to pick you up."

……

Chapter 0846

"The Lord of the Forbidden Land..."

Upon hearing those words, Yao Wenhua involuntarily gasped.

Does this vast and magnificent forbidden area have another owner?

He glanced at Feng Xia cautiously again, a terrifying yet audacious thought forming in his mind: "Could it be that..."

Recruiting soldiers and establishing sects are all just pretexts.

As the current representative of this ancient forbidden land, Feng Xia registered a sect simply to have a legitimate identity so that he could better navigate the mortal world!

The sect has existed from the very beginning, in this ancient forbidden land called Thousand Autumn Valley.

However, before this, Qianqiu Valley had been slumbering deep within the Yangkong Great Swamp, silent and unknown to anyone.

It wasn't until recently, with the arrival of Fengxia as its spokesperson, that it was revived from its long slumber!

Perhaps a similar situation occurred thousands or even tens of thousands of years ago.

Some forces that rise and disappear like comets are not truly gone, but rather the representatives of the ancient forbidden lands have completed their missions and returned to the mortal world!

"That makes sense, everything makes sense!"

"Why is Xia Beihai able to move freely in the Yangkong Great Marsh?"

"Why were Daoist Ziyang and his group able to survive peacefully in the Yangkong Great Swamp after they joined?"

"Why did he appear without any warning, and why is his identity and background a complete mystery?"

"Because...because Qianqiu Valley is the master of Yangkong Great Swamp. As a representative who came out of the forbidden area, he is naturally not affected by Yangkong Great Swamp!"

"That is precisely why the forbidden area has been isolated from the world for thousands of years, and his origins remain a mystery, as if he appeared out of thin air!"

In that instant, Yao Wenhua felt that he had understood everything.

When he came here before, he didn't see this magnificent palace; it was simply because his cultivation was not up to par.

Feng Xia raised his hand and waved. Yao Wenhua's vision blurred for a moment, and when he regained his footing, he saw the familiar mountain range.

The place where Feng Xia first brought him to Yangkong Great Marsh.

"Your Excellency Xia Beihai!"

Even though he was mentally prepared, Yao Wenhua still couldn't contain his excitement.

He took several deep breaths, finally managing to squeeze out a complete sentence: "May I ask who this Lord of the Forbidden Land you speak of is...?"

One can only imagine how incredibly powerful a being must be to be able to control such a forbidden area and even take charge of the Yangkong Great Swamp!

Feng Xia smiled slightly.

He slowly raised one hand and pointed to himself:

"Lord of the Forbidden Land, haven't you already met him?"

"you you you you you……"

Yao Wenhua was stunned at first, and then his mouth gradually opened wider.

……

Bang, bang, bang—

As dawn approached, melodious bells rang out, echoing across rivers, lakes, seas, and mountains, as if to awaken people from their sweet dreams.

The moment they heard the bell, countless people around Jiuyang Star were involuntarily invigorated.

"here we go!"

"After waiting for so long, it's finally here!"

"Golden scales are not... What, can't I say that?"

"The Hundred Sects Alliance's recruitment exam... is today!"

For many powerful individuals in the Southern Star Region, today will be a day that determines their fate.

A young, unaffiliated individual with supernatural abilities attempts to join a powerful sect to change his destiny and perhaps even rise to great heights!

Even the older supernatural beings wanted to take this opportunity to try to join a certain force, find a job to make a living, or even make further progress in their cultivation and change the course of their fate.

The recruitment exam isn't just for new disciples!

At times like these, many demons and monsters also emerge.

For example, they sell miraculous pills, ancient martial arts manuals, or secret techniques that can be unleashed on the spot. All kinds of treasures that were once rare have become almost everywhere as the Hundred Sects Examination approaches.

“You’re passing by, don’t miss it!”

"Even an ordinary supernatural being can gain strength comparable to a powerful physical cultivator with just one Mighty Divine Pill. It is non-toxic, leaves no side effects or residue, and will help you easily succeed in the recruitment exam!"

"A fragment of an ancient divine travel technique, capable of splitting consciousness in two and easily penetrating any restriction! An essential divine technique for graduating students!"

"God-level forbidden artifacts are on clearance sale! Not 998, not 98, just 88 Great Alliance Coins, and you can dominate the recruitment exam!"

—Of course, almost all of them are counterfeit and substandard products.

Even if there are some genuine items, they are often just word games. When the exam is approaching, you realize you've been scammed and have been cheated without even knowing it.

For example, there were a few instances where the divine forbidden artifacts were genuine, but unfortunately, they were discovered by the examiners before the exam even started.

If even forbidden items can be brought into the exam, then what's the point of the test?

"It's really lively! We missed the last recruitment exam, and we were planning to work hard this time, but who would have thought..."

A group of young people walked on the streets of Qiming City.

Compared to other candidates taking the exam, they seemed more unhurried and relaxed, as if they were heading to take up a post rather than taking the exam.

Whenever this topic is brought up, a group of people can't help but sigh.

More than a decade has passed since they were exiled from Xuanwu Kingdom to Jiuyang Star.

They had considered returning to their homeland and finding a way back, but unfortunately their cultivation level was too low, and their hometown was incredibly far away, already beyond their reach.

Over time, the homesickness gradually faded into the depths of my heart.

Because they have to deal with the outside world and a wider range of complex challenges, they simply don't have time to dwell on these little emotions.

In the early years, even the boy who brought them out was often seriously injured and had to risk his life to lead them to safety.

That's why they missed out on the recruitment process in the last decade.
