Chapter 318: Control of Cultivation Resources, Travel Together
Su Yi’s question hit the nail on the head. In the great desolate region, anyone with a bit of strength would not choose to join the so-called forces.
After all, there were many demon beasts in the great desolate region. Casually killing some of them could allow a cultivator to live for a long time. If one needed to increase their strength, as an itinerant cultivator, they would need to constantly hunt demon beasts in exchange for resources.
As he had just arrived at the central sky region, he did not know how to obtain these cultivation resources, so he could ask these two people.
At this time, Yue Tianming and Chen Xuan were already suspecting whether Su Yi had come from a remote place.
That was because Su Yi’s aura had always remained at the late stage of the foundation establishment realm. They thought that Su Yi’s strength was at the late stage of the foundation establishment realm, which was very common in the central sky region.
Therefore, the two of them did not have too many doubts.
What they did not expect was, how did Su Yi advance to the late stage of the foundation establishment realm?
Yue Tianming looked at him and asked in surprise.
“Fellow Daoist Su Yi, you… don’t know?”
Hearing this, he lightly nodded. He really did not know these things, so he cupped his fists and said to the two of them.
“Please explain.”
Hearing this, the two of them laughed bitterly. Su Yi did not know anything, yet he was still able to cultivate to the late stage of the foundation establishment realm. What kind of luck was this?
Fortunately, Yue Tianming and the others did not make fun of anyone’s ignorance. Instead, they patiently explained to Su Yi.
“Fellow Daoist Su Yi, you might not know, but if you want to increase your strength in the central sky region, you have to join a certain force.”
“These forces control secret realms, ruins, and various resource areas.”
“A long time ago, when these forces didn’t control these resources, itinerant cultivators were fighting and fighting for resources everywhere.”
This greatly reduced the strength of the human race. From then on, the top forces of the three provinces were furious.
They banded together and directly issued an edict, allowing some level two and level three factions to control all the resources. If the itinerant cultivators wanted to obtain resources, they had to join the factions and sects.
Although this restrained the development of the itinerant cultivators, it also stopped the fights among the itinerant cultivators for cultivation resources.
Overall, this could be considered as preserving the strength of the human race. After a long time, everyone had tacitly agreed to this method.
Therefore, everyone was now heading towards the goal of joining a faction.
Yue Tianming and Chen Xuan looked at each other. At the beginning, they had confirmed that Su Yi was going to Canglan City.
The intention of going to Canglan city was very obvious. If it was not to participate in the Spirit Firmament Sect’s disciple recruitment ceremony, then what was it?
At this moment, Su Yi’s brows were slightly furrowed after hearing Yue Tianming’s explanation.
He originally thought that with his strength, he would be able to slowly obtain resources in a certain place to increase his strength.
However, after listening to the two of them, it seemed that this matter was not simple.
If the secret realm was controlled and all sorts of resources were controlled, all he could do was to hunt demon beasts.
However, hunting demon beasts was definitely not feasible. For example, in the beginning, he only saw one demon beast within a radius of a few kilometers.
Su Yi eliminated this method of obtaining resources through hunting demon beasts. It looked like he had no choice but to follow what these two people had said.
If he wanted to improve himself, he had to join a faction.
Although he had the immortal transformation medallion and was a lower realm disciple of the Rosy Alchemy Immortal Sect.
However, the lower realm disciples of the Rosy Alchemy Immortal Sect were completely unable to receive the protection of the immortal sect. Perhaps only after ascending to the spirit world would they be able to have some trace of the immortal sect.
After thinking for a long time, he had already made up his mind. If he were to go to Canglan city, he would also have to participate in the Spirit Firmament Sect’s disciple recruitment ceremony.
However, he did not know what the criteria for the disciple recruitment ceremony was.
After making up his mind, he looked at Yue Tianming and asked, “Fellow Daoist Yue, I wonder what the criteria for Canglan City’s Spirit Firmament Sect’s disciple recruitment ceremony are? Do you think I can do this?”
As he spoke, he revealed some of his disguised late-stage foundation establishment strength.
Hearing this, Yue Tianming smiled and shook his head as he looked at Su Yi.
“Fellow Daoist Su Yi, I can’t guarantee this. In the past, the Spirit Firmament Sect’s disciple recruitment standard has changed somewhat. Although the change won’t be very big, it can not be separated from talent, strength, and realm.”
“For example, fellow Daoist Chen Xuan and I are both at the late stage of the foundation establishment stage. We also have the possibility of being eliminated. Moreover, I heard that this year’s batch will produce many geniuses. It will probably be even more difficult to obtain a spot in Canglan City to join the Spirit Firmament Sect.”
At this moment, Chen Xuan had also tidied up the flying swords on his stall. After hearing Yue Tianming’s words, he also agreed.
“Indeed, fellow Daoist Yue is right. However, with my strength and realm, it shouldn’t be a problem for me to get a spot.”
As Chen Xuan spoke, he even showed off the muscles on his arm.
Perhaps it was because he had been refining flying swords all year round, the muscles on Chen Xuan’s arm appeared somewhat sturdy.
Seeing this, he and Yue Tianming could not help but smile. This Chen Xuan’s character and mentality were indeed not bad.
Moreover, Chen Xuan, who was in the late stage of the foundation establishment stage, was willing to put down his ego and set up a stall on the street. One had to say that he was an interesting person.
At this time, Yue Tianming looked at Su Yi and asked with a questioning look in his eyes. “Fellow Daoist Su Yi, how is it? Do you want to go to Canglan City with us and give it a try?”
Hearing this, he smiled at Yue Tianming and then gestured.
“I won’t hide it from fellow Daoist Yue. I have the intention in this regard. However, I don’t know the route to Canglan City. I wonder if we can go together?”
“Since fellow Daoist Su Yi has the intention, then that’s good. When the time comes, the three of us can go together.”
Upon hearing this, Yue Tianming also revealed a trace of a smile as he withdrew the feather fan in his hand and made an agreement.
“In this case, there’s still half a month’s time before the Spirit Firmament Sect’s Disciple Recruitment Ceremony, and with the three of us, it will also take about ten days to get to Canglan City from here.”
“Why don’t we find a place to rest for a night and set off tomorrow?” Yue Tianming pointed at a lavishly decorated attic at the end of the street and said.
Looking at the attic in the distance, Su Yi did not feel anything. On the contrary, Chen Xuan was in an awkward situation.
He weakly raised his hand and said. “Um, can I not go there?”
“Why?”
Yue Tianming was a bit puzzled. Although cultivators did not care about resting places, who would want to sleep on the streets if they could be comfortable? Moreover, he wanted to pull Su Yi and Chen Xuan to have a drink.
“This… I don’t have money…” Chen Xuan hesitated for a long time before admitting his difficulty.
At this moment, Yue Tianming suddenly realized that this was the reason why a big man was so embarrassed. Indeed, a penny was hard to beat a hero.
However, Yue Tianming and Su Yi did not laugh at him. One might be his temperament and character, while the other had experienced it before.
Why would a man have to make things difficult for another man?
Yue Tianming patted Chen Xuan’s shoulder and comforted him. “This time, I’ll treat you. Next time, it’ll be your turn.”
Chen Xuan was so touched that he almost cried. He almost hugged Yue Tianming’s thigh and called him brother.
Seeing this, Su Yi’s heart moved. Perhaps it was a good choice to have these two accompanying him on the road.
