Chapter 19 The Long Road to Immortality
As Li Guanqi made his way towards Heavenly Water Peak, he encountered many fellow disciples who had joined the sect at the same time as him.
Young boys and girls, clad in fresh sect attire, brimmed with anticipation for the future. They gathered in small groups, chatting and laughing as they journeyed together.
Heavenly Water Peak was situated in the western part of the Great Xia Sword Sects territory. The positioning of the five major main peaks adhered to the principles of the five elements, but the Wind, Thunder, and Ice Peaks stood apart.
Just as Li Guanqi envied others who gathered and chatted together, two figures suddenly embraced him from behind.
Haha! Guanqi, I cant believe you chose the Thunder element as your Spirit Root.
Thats right, you have a rare Saint-grade Spirit Root!
Directly entering the inner sect, its like soaring to the heavens.
A smile played on Li Guanqis lips. The newcomers were Lin Dong, who had joined the inner sect of Heavenly Earth Peak, and Li Shengan, who had joined the outer sect of Heavenly Metal Peak.
Li Guanqi smiled slightly. He had asked his master about how these two were doing.
Lin Dong, youre doing well too. You actually have an Earth element Spirit Root. Your future will be promising.
The straightforward Lin Dong scratched his head and grinned, Our familys ancestral grave is blessed, and our ancestors accumulated virtue.
Meanwhile, Li Shengan, who was beside them, had a satisfied look on his face.
He said to himself, For someone with a mixed Spirit Root like mine, just entering the outer sect is good enough.
The three of them ascended Heavenly Water Peak together.
Surprisingly, along the way, they saw that ninety percent of the disciples of Heavenly Water Peak were female disciples.
On this journey, many senior sisters stood on rooftops or high places, continuously chatting and teasing the new disciples.
Wow, senior sister, have you seen the blind boy carrying a piece of stone on his back?
I heard hes the only disciple accepted by Heavenly Thunder Peak this year and has a Saint-grade Spirit Root thats rarer than Senior Brother Wu Bing!
The elegant-looking young woman listened to her junior sisters chatter and just smiled faintly.
Li Guanqi, unexpectedly, a blind boy has such an elegant name.
His talent is among the best in the entire Blue Cloud Continent.
Alright, its time to practice.
The bustling crowd gathered in the grand hall of Heavenly Water Peak.
From this day forward, it is imperative that you keep it with you at all times!
Because this will be something that will accompany you throughout your entire life!
While her words held a certain weight, every disciple who emerged from the Great Xia Sword Sect understood the significance of what she was saying.
The function of this jade slip is quite versatile, with the most important one being the accumulation of merit points within the sect.
These points will be recorded in the jade slip, and it also possesses the ability to locate fellow disciples when necessary.
You can also use the jade slip to access the items in the treasure pavilion, and other Elder instructors can utilize it for observation.
In summary, it is crucial that you safeguard this jade slip! Once you reach the Qi Refining stage, you will naturally gain access to these functionalities.
Everyone retrieved their jade slips and examined them closely, surprised by how something so small could do so much.
However, what Lan He revealed next completely shattered their understanding of the world!
Lan He continued in a soft voice, Do you know where we are?
Someone inquired, The Northern Region of the Blue Cloud Continent.
Before the words had fully left their lips, another young man, with slightly reddened eyes, declared in a deep voice, The Northern Dust Region, within the Northern Region of the Blue Cloud Continent!
Upon hearing this voice, Lan He visibly hesitated for a moment. Then, when she directed her gaze toward the young man, a knowing expression briefly flickered in her eyes.
She softly said, So, its Zhong Lin, the Young Master of Yuyang Mountain.
Yes, where we currently reside is indeed the Blue Cloud Continent, specifically within the Northern Dust Region.
This land is what is known as the human spirit realm, or the mortal realm.
The human spirit realm is divided into six domains, and you will explore the others on your own in the future.
The reason Im sharing this information with you is to convey that aside from the human spirit realm and the immortal realm, there exists another realm!
The Yellow Springs Realm!
It is precisely due to the existence of the Yellow Springs Realm that, within the countless tens of thousands of years in the human spirit realm, there have been numerous powerful cultivators who have taken over others bodies, as well as individuals who carry memories from their previous lives and undergo reincarnation!
Li Guanqi was instantly taken aback, thinking to himself, Reincarnators?
When I was at the Spirit Root testing earlier, the Head Law Enforcer slew two cultivators who attempted body-snatching!
And now there are reincarnators with memories of their past lives?
If I hadnt entered the immortal sect, I probably would never have known about such things!
