A reincarnated girl, who begins by possessing a cultivator.

However, they also have the fewest disciples.

There was no other way; those who specialized in weapon-related techniques needed talent, so both families were extremely selective in choosing their disciples.

Just as the four Core Formation elders were talking for a long time, a loud laugh came from the northwest.

"Haha, sorry, sorry, I'm late from Bailingshan."

A giant peacock radiating multicolored light appeared from afar, with nearly two hundred disciples standing on its back.

The cultivators from Bailing Mountain have arrived. Bailing Mountain is a beast-taming sect, and they are skilled at controlling demonic beasts and insects to fight against enemies.

No sooner had the people from Bailing Mountain arrived than a giant blue gourd fell from the clouds, upon which stood a group of cultivators dressed in blue robes.

"My Lingxu Sect has also arrived, but it seems that the fellow Daoists from the Xuan Yue Sect have not yet arrived."

Of the seven sects in Yue Kingdom, six have already arrived. The remaining cultivation forces and rogue cultivators are also getting restless and have all stood up. As soon as the Xuan Yue Sect arrives, the blessed land can be opened.

"Hahaha! It's said that the strongest forces are often the last to arrive. Could it be that the Xuan Yue Sect is still dreaming of becoming the overlord, and that's why they're late?"

Xu Yan made a loud sarcastic remark.

And sure enough, Xu Yan was right. The people from the Xuan Yue Sect had actually arrived at the Lingyuan Mountains, but they deliberately slowed down as soon as they entered the area.

The crowd had actually noticed that two Core Formation stage cultivators were slowly approaching from a certain direction, which is why they deliberately said those words to mock the Xuan Yue Sect.

"Hmph! Xu Yan, is your Heavenly Blade Hall so impatient to become the dominant force?"

The people from the Xuan Yue Sect also arrived. Their enormous flying treasure ship, carrying an oppressive aura, rolled over a mountain and appeared in everyone's sight.

Of the seven major sects, only the Xuan Yue Sect possesses such a massive flying magical artifact.

This also demonstrates a profound cultural heritage.

"They arrived at the Lingyuan Mountains long ago, but they deliberately dawdled. It's really annoying."

To the cultivation world of Yue Kingdom, Xuan Yue Sect was an outside force, a branch of the Hehuan Sect of the neighboring Luo Sha Kingdom. Therefore, the local sects of Yue Kingdom did not like Xuan Yue Sect very much.

However, since the Xuan Yue Sect had the strongest overall power, before news of Qu Xinyao's passing and Yue Ningxuan's failed breakthrough came, the Xuan Yue Sect was still the number one sect in the Yue Kingdom.

Su Chun, who was on the boat, glanced down and immediately saw many familiar figures.

There are no more than fifty Core Formation cultivators in the Yue Kingdom, most of whom are concentrated in the seven sects of the Yue Kingdom. Su Chun knows most of them, but there are also a few newly promoted Core Formation cultivators that Su Chun has never met.

The treasure ship slowly descended after it came above everyone's heads.

"We've arrived. Get off now. Don't disgrace the reputation of our Xuan Yue Sect."

Song Fenghua turned to Su Chun and the others and said something before flying down with Fan Yuting.

Su Chun and the others quickly followed.

And so, all seven major sects of the Yue Kingdom were present.

"Haha, Fellow Daoist Song, congratulations on becoming the Second Elder of the Xuan Yue Sect."

Qingyuan stepped forward with a smile and offered his congratulations.

But whether this congratulation was sincere or had ulterior motives is hard to say.

This Qingyuan looks kind, but you can tell at a glance that he's a wolf in sheep's clothing. He's actually reminding Song Fenghua that the strength of your Xuan Yue Sect is not what it used to be.

"Qingyuan, you old ghost, stop with your sarcastic remarks. Do you think I can't hear what you're implying?"

After saying this, Song Fenghua scanned the disciples of the seven sects with her divine sense, as well as the Core Formation cultivators and disciples of other sects.

Through his divine sense, he detected many young cultivators with powerful auras and vigorous vitality.

For a cultivator, if someone is young and has high cultivation level, it means that this person also has higher talent.

In contrast, the Xuan Yue Sect has not produced any particularly outstanding disciples in this generation.

"Your families have recruited some quite good disciples over the years. Don't let them die in this blessed land."

Song Fenghua gave a cold laugh.

"Hmph! Elder Song, that's none of your concern. You should worry more about your own disciples. Quite a few people have come, but what's with the quality? Why is it so uneven? Are they just here to make up the numbers?"

Xu Yan immediately made a sarcastic remark.

One against six, she couldn't win the argument, so Song Fenghua quickly changed the subject.

"Alright, it's about time. Let's discuss the competition rules first."

Upon hearing this, everyone stopped arguing and all the Core Formation cultivators from the various sects gathered together. There were a total of twelve sects and forty-two Core Formation cultivators.

There were also a few Core Formation cultivators, who were independent cultivators; they just watched from a distance and did not approach.

Su Chun then began to use his divine sense to scan the Qi Refining cultivators.

These were her competitors, and she wanted to see if there were any outstanding up-and-coming talents.

With this glance, she indeed spotted a female cultivator with an extraordinary aura. She was a female disciple of the Xuan Guang Pavilion, dressed in a bright gold glass dress and wearing a gold veil.

Only a pair of beautiful, lively eyes were visible.

"What beautiful eyes."

The eyes of this female disciple of Xuan Guang Pavilion seemed to possess a kind of magic; Su Chun couldn't take her eyes off them after just one glance.

The female disciple of Xuan Guang Pavilion seemed to realize that someone was watching her, so she instinctively looked in a certain direction, and her eyes met Su Chun's.

"They've noticed? How is that possible?"

Su Chun's expression changed, and she quickly looked away.

The female disciple from Xuan Guang Pavilion kept staring at Su Chun, seemingly lost in thought.

Su Chunke possessed the divine sense power of the peak Foundation Establishment stage. Theoretically speaking, unless someone's divine sense power was higher than hers, it should be impossible for them to detect her divine sense probe.

So her first reaction was that there was something wrong with this woman.

Chapter 18 Blessed Land Opens

After the seven sects of Yue Kingdom finished discussing with the other sects, they prepared to open the entrance to Lingyuan Blessed Land.

The main issue they were discussing was the distribution of resources.

All cultivators who enter Lingyuan Blessed Land must hand over a portion of the cultivation resources they obtain to the seven sects of Yue Kingdom.

If the submitted materials are divided into ten parts, then the sect that receives the most resources this time will be allocated 30% of the materials submitted by the other cultivators.

Then the remaining six factions will divide the remaining 70% according to their rankings.

In the past, the Xuan Yue Sect received the most resources, but this time it's hard to say.

As for sects without Nascent Soul cultivators in charge, they don't have to hand over anything, so they neither distribute nor hand over anything.

The money was mainly handed over by independent cultivators and minor, insignificant forces.

After discussing it.

On behalf of the seven sects and other sects, Song Fenghua announced the results of the discussion to all the cultivators present.

"Everyone, this Lingyuan Blessed Land is a cave dwelling of our ancestors that our seven sects protected at great cost. Without the protection of our seven sects, the cultivation resources here would probably have been looted long ago and turned into a wasteland."

"Therefore, according to the rules, apart from our seven sects and the other five major sects, everyone else must hand over 30% of the cultivation materials they obtain from the blessed land. Those who are willing to accept this can enter, and those who are unwilling to accept it are better to leave."

The surrounding cultivators remained silent, none daring to raise any objections, but many of them were already cursing the ancestors of the Seven Sects in their hearts.

Because Lingyuan Blessed Land was not left behind by the ancestors of the seven sects, but by a Nascent Soul cultivator named Lingyuan Shangren, it should have belonged to the entire cultivation world of Yue Kingdom.

However, in the cultivation world, strength is paramount. About five thousand years ago, the first batch of native sects, relying on their powerful forces, seized Lingyuan Blessed Land.

At that time, there was no Yue Kingdom, nor were there the seven sects as we know them today. The seven sects today are essentially inheriting the rights of several sects from that time.

As for why there are still five second-rate forces, it's because these five second-rate forces are the lineages passed down from those sects back then.

Out of a sense of morality, they were exempted from handing over the money.

"Since there are no objections, let's prepare to begin at Lingyuan Blessed Land."

Song Fenghua waited only symbolically for a moment before deciding to open the blessed land.

Song Fenghua and the leaders of the other six factions exchanged glances, and they simultaneously took out a token from their bodies.

This is the key to unlocking the array barrier.

The seven people formed hand seals and poured their magic power into the token. The next moment, seven streams of light of different colors shot out from the token and struck the huge cave barrier of Lingyuan Mountain.

Soon, Lingyuan Mountain began to tremble, and a hollow vortex slowly appeared on the barrier.

"The gate to the blessed land has been opened. Enter quickly. Remember, the Lingyuan Blessed Land will only be open for three days. At this time three days from now, the entrance and exit of the blessed land will be opened on time. Just wait for one hour. If you have not come out after one hour, it will be assumed that you have perished. We will close the formation and it will not be opened again for another fifty years."

Song Fenghua reminded everyone.

Without hesitation, the cultivators from the sects present all piloted their magical artifacts and flew into the Lingyuan Blessed Land.

Su Chun, Meng Yu, and the others followed the main force of the Xuan Yue Sect and flew inside.

Before long, most of the tens of thousands of cultivators present had entered, leaving only a few cultivators below the Foundation Establishment stage.

"So many people went in, I wonder how many will come out alive."

The female elder of Xuanguang Pavilion sighed.

This time, the number of cultivators entering Lingyuan Blessed Land is probably the largest ever; the last time, there were only 20,000 to 30,000.

There must be a reason why so many people entered this year.

"Alas! The six demonic sects of Luosha Kingdom have been making moves in recent years. Our cultivators from Yue Kingdom are often assassinated by demonic cultivators who infiltrate Yue Kingdom. This is not a good sign."

The overall strength of the cultivation world in Yue Kingdom is now far inferior to that of the six demonic sects in Luo Sha Kingdom.

The six major sects of the demonic path each have a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator in charge, and the other sects also have at least three Nascent Soul cultivators in charge.

The seven factions of Yue Kingdom originally only had eleven Nascent Soul cultivators combined. Not to mention that Qu Xinyao is about to pass away, the seven factions have lost their strongest national force and a Nascent Soul cultivator. The difference in the number of Nascent Soul cultivators between the two sides is huge.

If the demonic forces of Luosha Kingdom were to suddenly attack the cultivation world of Yue Kingdom, the cultivation world of Yue Kingdom would likely not be able to withstand it for long.

They had a premonition that this might be the last time the Lingyuan Blessed Land would be opened.

So the seven factions appear to be the same as usual, but what they've been doing behind the scenes is hard to say.

As Su Chun and the others entered Lingyuan Blessed Land, it was as if they had entered another world. Here, clouds and mist swirled, spiritual energy was abundant, and as far as the eye could see, there were mountains and rivers, with some buildings faintly hidden among them.

"Is this the cave of a Nascent Soul cultivator? It's incredible. It's like he created a world. I wonder if I'll ever have the chance to reach that level."
