Chapter 217: Huo Ming’s Worries, Reinforcing Xuan Blood

Translator: 549690339 I

In the Azure Dragon Palace.

Han Yi did not see Lu Li’s figure. The elder on duty at the Azure Dragon Palace was a Foundation Building Middle Level cultivator named Wo Changyun.

Upon seeing Han Yi, Wo Changyun’s eyes widened in shock, rendering him momentarily lost for words.

“Junior Brother Han, you… you… have you formed your Golden Core?”

Han Yi had just broken through, and he did not intentionally hide his aura. His aura was almost the same as what Wo Changyun had seen in Shen Ping six months ago. No, it wasn’t just the same – it was much stronger than Shen Ping’s.

This intense feeling made Wo Changyun feel as if he were facing Elder Huo Ming, who had reached the Golden Core stage years ago.

Han Yi nodded and smiled.

“I just broke through.”

Before Wo Changyun could ask further, Han Yi asked, “By the way, where is Senior Brother Lu?”

“Also, what happened in the sect? I noticed something unusual going on at the Combat Peak.”

Wo Changyun quickly recovered, took a deep breath, and his expression became much more respectful than before.

“Senior Brother Lu has already left for the Xuan Blood Sub-sect with Senior Brother Shen seven days ago.”

“They are currently selecting the second batch of disciples at the Combat Peak to aid the Xuan Blood Sub-sect.”

Han Yi raised his eyebrows.

“Oh?”

“Senior Brother Shen has left seclusion?”

“And, what happened to the Xuan Blood Sub-sect?”

Wo Changyun nodded, “Senior Brother Shen came out of seclusion half a year ago and successfully reached the Golden Core stage.”

“As for what happened at the Xuan Blood Sub-sect…”

At this point, Wo Changyun took a deep breath, his eyes filled with anger.

“The Xuan Blood Sub-sect was attacked three months ago by powerful cultivators who caused chaos and used unknown methods to unleash a blood sea frenzy. Demonic beings gathered and began assaulting the eighteen cities of Xuan Blood.”

“Moreover, among the gathered blood sea demonic beings, there were many that were comparable to Foundation Establishment Peak or even Golden Core cultivators. Ten days ago, Elder Si Hongxue managed to lure the demonic beings to Lianjia City using a third-stage Spirit Vein as bait. They formed a large array and wiped out all the demonic beings.”

“However, the blood sea demonic beings did not disperse, but continued to gather. The situation was dire. Seven days ago, Master Zhuge led Senior Brother Shen, Senior Brother Lian, and more than thirty Foundation Establishment Elders and over two hundred inner disciples to provide support.” “But now, I heard the situation is still critical, and they are already preparing to send a second batch of disciples.”

The Senior Brother Shen that Wo Changyun mentioned was naturally Shen Ping, while Senior Brother Lian referred to an early Golden Core Cultivator, Lian Ting Xi, who had broken through a few years before Shen Ping.

Currently, the Golden Core Supreme Elders of Xuandan Sect are Qin Wuxian, Zhuge Wu You, Si Hongxue, Huo Ming, Shen Ping, Lian Tingxi, and Han Yi, who had just broken through, totaling seven people.

As for the Xuan Blood Sub-sect situated near the Blood Sea, it was guarded by one rotating elder every three years, and it happened to be Elder Si Hongxue’s turn for this rotation.

Han Yi frowned.

This time, three elders had to take action, which showed just how critical the situation was.

At this moment, Wo Changyun continued:

“In fact, what angers our sect members the most is that Elder Si Hongxue would not have been injured if it were not for a Gold Core cultivator and demon cultivator from the Yuan Beast Sect launching a surprise attack. This has made the situation even more dire.”

“This is the real reason our sect’s disciples are filled with righteous indignation.”

“The Yuan Beast Sect is stabbing us in the back.”

As Wo Changyun spoke, his face showed a hint of fierceness. The sect already had a consensus to gradually erode the Yuan Beast Sect’s power with an almost open conspiracy. Yet the Yuan Beast Sect chose to strike at Xuandan Sect’s weak point instead.

Standing to the side, Han Yi had even more thoughts in his mind.

He guessed that not only the Yuan Beast Sect was involved in this but also the Wanfa Sect.

What Han Yi didn’t expect was the tactic the Yuan Beast Sect employed was to target the blood sea demon’s weak point with an “encirclement to save Zhou” method. Moreover, this move happened to strike Xuandan Sect’s current weakness.

The Xuandan Sect only had one Yuan Shun. At this critical moment, Yuan Shun could only guard the Xuandan Sect.

Even more so,

Han Yi speculated that at this moment outside the Xuandan Sect, in even more distant places than the Five Immortal Cities, many Gold Core cultivators had already gathered. They were waiting for Yuan Shun to leave the sect before launching an attack on the Xuandan Sect.

This was an outright and open plot, aimed at the fact that the sovereign of the Xuandan Sect could not take care of both sides at once.

A cold light flickered in Han Yi’s eyes.

He asked about the goings-on in the sect over the past year, the situation at the Profound Immortal Pavilion in both Qian and Shu cities, and other matters pertaining to the sect. Wo Changyun, who had temporarily taken over the responsibilities of Lu Li as the Elder of the Inner Peak, would naturally know the most details.

A moment later,

Han Yi fell silent, digesting the information from Wo Changyun about the many events that had transpired in the sect during the nine months of his seclusion.

Shen Ping had come out of seclusion, successfully reaching the Golden Core stage. However, another cultivator who tried to reach the Golden Core stage during closed-door cultivation met his demise, and that was Fu Canghai’s eldest disciple, Tang Yiyuan.

The difficulty of breaking through to the Golden Core stage was significant, and success and failure were a part of cultivation. Strength, foundation, and luck were all indispensable factors.

Tang Yiyuan could not survive the Golden Core Formation Catastrophe, and his only fate was death.

However,

Apart from that,

Another cultivator from the sect had announced his closed-door cultivation to break through to the Golden Core stage. That was Zhu Siyuan, who was once third on the Heaven List.

Back then, when Han Yi returned from Shu Du and broke through to the Foundation Building late-stage, he saw that the first place on the Heaven List was Zhu Rong Peak’s Zhan YuanKai, who had fallen during an outing, leaving behind a shattered soul tablet in the sect.

The second place was Shen Ping, who had broken through as expected, and the third place was Zhu Siyuan, who had a high likelihood of breaking through the Golden Core stage with this closed-door cultivation..
