"What?"

"You can still go in?"

An Qiuyue stood up instantly, a look of surprise on her face.

"It should be possible."

Are you sure?

"Sure!"

Having received Chu Xuan's affirmative answer, Elder Du suddenly appeared before the two of them, saying, "Little Chu, you are much luckier than I thought."

"Greetings, Elder Du!" The two men stood up and bowed upon seeing this.

Elder Du nodded, and an invisible force surged forth, helping the two of them to their feet. "Little Chu, may I, this old woman, examine this carefully?"

"Elder Du, please!"

Elder Du raised his hand and placed it on his shoulder. After a moment, he shook his head and said, "Nothing unusual. Perhaps the secret realm recorded Xiao Chu's aura."

"Xiao Chu, are there any restrictions on your re-entry into the secret realm? Is it only allowed once, or can you continue to enter it indefinitely?"

"Reporting to Elder Du, I haven't tried it myself, but I feel that it should be possible to enter later on."

"You said there are demonic beasts and cultivators inside, right? What's the highest level they're at?"

"Replying to senior, the strongest person in the Xuanming Sect territory where I am located is the Xuanming Sect Ancestor, a cultivator at the Yuan Dan realm."

"Yuan Dan Realm? Is that the realm after Qi Induction and Dao Platform?"

"right!"

Chu Xuan immediately nodded. Although he didn't see Elder Du looking through the manual, Chu Xuan felt that those storage bags without any restrictions couldn't possibly block the divine sense of a Nascent Soul cultivator. If the other party wanted to see it, he wouldn't even need to take out the manual.

"It should be similar to a Golden Core cultivator. This is the territory of the Xuanming Sect. It seems that this secret realm is quite large."

"You should go with Xiaoyue to the Immortal Abode to register first. I will send a message to the Abode Master to see if I can apply for an immortal artifact to protect you."

What?

Use a magical artifact for protection?

Something doesn't sound right.

"Look at you, so unsophisticated. Hurry up and thank Elder Du." An Qiuyue gently nudged Chu Xuan from the side.

"This junior thanks Elder Du very much!"

"Um!"

······

An Qiuyue carried Chu Xuan through the air towards the Immortal Abode. Perhaps because the Immortal Abode was far away, or perhaps to take care of him, their speed was much slower this time. Chu Xuan was able to see the surrounding environment clearly and even chat with An Qiuyue beside him.

"What's wrong? Are you scared?" An Qiuyue chuckled as she looked at Chu Xuan, who was still somewhat dazed.

"A bit... a celestial artifact. I've only just established my foundation, and I've actually managed to get a celestial artifact to protect me. It's truly a dream come true." Chu Xuan was still in a daze from the extravagance of the celestial mansion.

"What's the big deal? What the Immortal Abode lacks is the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, not magic treasures. Oh, I forgot to tell you, every formal Immortal Abode disciple can choose a spiritual weapon when they enter the academy."

"What? A spiritual artifact? Senior An, are you sure it's the spiritual artifact that comes after that magic weapon, the kind used by cultivators in the Nascent Soul and Void Refinement realms?"

An Qiuyue nodded casually and said, "Yes, a spiritual artifact!"

"Magic artifacts, magical treasures, spiritual artifacts, and among spiritual treasures, spiritual artifacts rank third!"

Chu Xuan was stunned again. According to what the Federation had taught, cultivators in the Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment stages used magic tools, cultivators in the Golden Core and Nascent Soul stages used magic treasures, cultivators in the Deity Transformation and Void Refining stages used spiritual tools, and cultivators in the Body Integration and Mahayana stages used spiritual treasures.

As for the scattered immortals who fail to transcend the tribulation of immortality and disintegrate, and the tribulation cultivators who rely on tribulation to prolong their lifespan after exhausting their lifespan, they generally use spiritual treasures.

Shouldn't cultivators in the Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment stages use magical artifacts? Why are they given spiritual artifacts upon entering a celestial abode?

"What's so surprising about that? The Immortal Abode now holds all the resources of the Federation, and the treasures left behind by countless heroes throughout history are immense."

"The Immortal Abode recruits disciples with a strict policy of quality over quantity, and the number of disciples is extremely small. Each disciple has more than enough spiritual artifacts. In that case, why use those ordinary magic weapons and treasures?"

"You can choose a spiritual weapon when you enter the beginner stage, another one when you reach the Foundation Establishment stage, and yet another one when you reach the Golden Core stage."

"Of course, you can also choose a spiritual treasure, but generally no one chooses it. For us low-level cultivators, there is not much difference in the power that spiritual artifacts and spiritual treasures can exert, but the amount of spiritual energy they consume is completely different."

"The amount of spiritual energy allocated by the Immortal Abode each year is fixed, which is simply not enough to support a spiritual treasure."

"So that's how it is," Chu Xuan said with a look of sudden realization. The world where the Federation is located has a very long history and has left behind too much heritage, while the Federation strictly limits the number of cultivators.

As a result, the supply of spiritual treasures will definitely exceed the demand for immortal abodes. Therefore, those low-level magic tools and magic treasures will have no value, and it is better to use spiritual tools directly.

However, judging from what Senior Sister An said, it seems that cultivating in the Immortal Mansion involves relying on a fixed amount of spiritual energy from heaven and earth distributed by the Immortal Mansion.

"Even so, there's no need to give me a celestial artifact for protection. I feel that a spiritual treasure would be enough."

An Qiuyue glanced at Chu Xuan and said, "Junior Brother Chu, you know nothing about the strength of the Federation!"

"The Federation is not lacking in spiritual treasures or immortal artifacts. As far as I know, the Federation has sealed away dozens of immortal artifacts. After all, immortal artifacts are real big consumers of spiritual energy."

"They will not be unsealed unless absolutely necessary. Even the few items that are unsealed will only be unsealed when needed; otherwise, they will remain sealed."

"Take the Sky-Observing Mirror you've seen, for example. It has nine seals, but usually only one seal is activated. As long as it works in conjunction with the Sky-Monitoring Array, it can monitor all cultivators above the second rank within the Federation."

"As for your situation, it's standard practice to let you bring your immortal artifact in. Firstly, it's to protect your safety, and secondly, it's to nurture the artifact."

"In order to maximize the concentration of spiritual energy in the world, many immortal artifacts have not received any spiritual energy for tens of thousands of years and are relying entirely on the power of the laws within the immortal artifacts to survive."

"If you take it in, it can also absorb the spiritual energy of the secret realm to nourish the immortal artifact, which can be considered as adding a bit of foundation to the Federation."

"oh oh!"

So that's how it is. That makes sense. A Foundation Establishment cultivator possessing a Celestial Artifact sounds absurd, but the Federation has a strong foundation.

"By the way, Senior An, isn't the Federation worried that I might accidentally perish in the secret realm and lose the immortal artifact?"

An Qiuyue said nonchalantly, "So what? If it really doesn't work out, we can just stay in the secret realm. Anyway, the secret realm belongs to the Federation."

"Moreover, all the immortal artifacts in the Federation were sealed by the Immortal Venerable. With the great supernatural powers of the Immortal Venerable, he could summon the immortal artifacts from a distance. Leaving them inside is just for the purpose of nurturing the immortal artifacts."

Indeed, from the Federation's perspective, even if the immortal artifacts were left in the secret realm, it would be like keeping the spoils within the Federation and not benefiting outsiders, since the entire secret realm belongs to the Federation anyway.

Unfortunately, I went to another world.

Of course, with his own portal, he can return at any time. If he also has a celestial artifact to protect him, his ability to deal with the risks of another world will be greatly enhanced. As long as he is careful, he can basically ensure a safe retreat. Indeed, it is always good to have a powerful backer!

Demonstrating our value directly to the Federation is the most appropriate way to deal with this other world!
