Chapter 430: Prepared For All Possibilities (1)

"The Bloodforge Battle?" Wu Yuan was slightly taken aback.

He had learned a bit about it through the sect’s intelligence. However, he wasn't too clear about the details. After all, little information about the Bloodforge Devil Hall was publicly available in the Redmoon Immortal Continent.

It was thanks to Wu Yuan’s status as an ‘Archimmortal’s disciple' that he was granted access to some confidential information.

"The Eternal Sun Immortal World we are part of believes in the ideology that 'everyone is a dragon'."

"Therefore, our disciples are trained with non-violent methods. Whether it's the voidrealm battles in the Seven Star Luminaries Tower, or real-world combat in the Dragon Star Tournament and Moonsilver Tournament, various protective measures are in place to prevent serious injuries." High Immortal Nan Yin said.

"Even if we do open participation for life-or-death trials, each one is selected for a targeted purpose, and we never force any sect members to participate against their will. We wouldn't risk putting our top geniuses in dangerous situations without thorough discussion."

Wu Yuan listened.

Indeed, the various protective measures of the Dragon Star Immortal Sect were very comprehensive.

Even so, once a cultivator stepped into the Amethyst Cradle, repeated life-or-death trials resulted in the deaths of many elite sect disciples.

The path of cultivation was inherently cruel. Without undergoing life-or-death trials, one couldn't reach the end of the road.

"The Bloodforge Devil Hall believes in the Asura Devil path. What's the core of this ideology? Practical combat!" High Immortal Nan Yin said solemnly, "Little to no protection during practical combat, expeditions, and tempering."

Wu Yuan was inwardly shocked.

Little to no protection?

"Isn't the probability of death sky-high?" Wu Yuan couldn't help but ask.

"Shockingly high." High Immortal Nan Yin said softly, "As far as I know, the Bloodforge Devil Hall’s Redmoon division would allocate countless worlds and vast territories to the many Archimmortals and High Immortals under their command. These powerhouses train and raise a large number of disciples."

"These numerous disciples fight each other, undertaking one perilous expedition after another. In the end, the winners are the survivors." High Immortal Nan Yin said. "And the Bloodforge Battle is the most crucial one of all."

"The Bloodforge Battle is split into the Golden Core Battle and the Amethyst Cradle Battle, and takes place once every hundred years."

"Once every hundred years?" Wu Yuan muttered to himself.

From what he knew, the next Bloodforge Battle was just three years away.

"The Bloodforge Battle is brutal and bloody."

"The greater the potential of the participant, the higher the demands set by the Bloodforge Devil Hall." High Immortal Nan Yin fixed his gaze on his disciple, "If you participate, you'll be expected to seize ten thousand Blood Devil Tokens at least, given the potential you’ve shown."

"Or perhaps, a hundred thousand Blood Devil Tokens."

Wu Yuan was shocked.

He knew that if geniuses from the Eternal Sun Immortal World volunteered to participate and their application was approved, they were required to seize ten thousand Blood Devil Tokens at minimum.

"It is also possible for you to volunteer for the Bloodforge as a disciple of the devil hall."

"As far as I know, the top-tier geniuses within the Silvermist World of the Silvermist Immortal Nation often volunteer to participate in the Bloodforge," High Immortal Nan Yin continued. "Their goal is none other than the ultimate opportunity of the Bloodforge."

"Volunteer to take part? For the opportunity of the Bloodforge?" Wu Yuan understood.

Those who could represent the Silvermist Immortal Nation were undoubtedly the cream of the crop among millions of immortal cultivators. They had to be incredibly powerful.

Even if weaker cultivators at the same cultivation phase formed an array with an array disk akin to the Divine Flame Array, it would likely take dozens of them to compete with just one such genius.

If they lacked an especially powerful array, relying only on the most basic Coordination Arrays? Someone like Wu Yuan’s body refiner self, could easily match hundreds, if not thousands, of cultivators at the same level.

If they were scattered, he could slaughter them with ease. So, the odds of such a peerless genius dying in battle were actually not that high.

"As for how your body refiner self will proceed from here, I’ll leave the choice to you. I can only provide some advice," High Immortal Nan Yin looked at Wu Yuan. "Just remember this, if you're truly forced into the Bloodforge Battle, give it your all! A crisis could also be an opportunity."

"Yes," Wu Yuan said solemnly. After his master's explanation, coupled with the information he had previously obtained, he now had a rough idea of his next steps.

"There's another matter I’d like to discuss, it’s regarding your identity," High Immortal Nan Yin continued. "Previously, you weren’t too famous, and your body refiner self was not exposed, so no one would connect the dots."

"But as your strength grows and you rise in status within the Bloodforge Devil Hall, the devil hall will undoubtedly investigate your background."

"Your qi refiner self has already become quite a well-known figure in the Redmoon Immortal Continent and will only continue to grow stronger over time," High Immortal Nan Yin said. "Even if the powerhouses of the Bloodforge Devil Hall haven't noticed you all this time, your talent will be brought to their attention sooner or later."

Wu Yuan listened quietly.

Indeed. If he were just an ordinary Golden Core cultivator, they would never make the connection between his two true selves. Even with the methods of the Bloodforge Devil Hall, it would be hard for them to uncover his identity.

However, if he showed off his talents and accrued fame, there was a high chance that they would uncover the similarities once they compared his two true selves.

"The Bloodforge Devil Hall and our Eternal Sun Immortal World are both under the divine court. Thus, even if your true self is exposed, the consequences won’t be fatal. At least, you won't be seen as a traitor because of this," High Immortal Nan Yin spoke.

"But right now, you are too weak. There is no guarantee that some powerhouses won’t get ideas. An Archimmortal could kill you with nothing more than a thought."

Wu Yuan nodded slightly. He might show impressive potential now, but his actual power was indeed too weak.

"Therefore, before you are able to protect yourself, you need to hide your past. I have prepared this for you," High Immortal Nan Yin said, flipping his palm. "Have a look."

In his hand was an immortal slip.

"This?" Wu Yuan hesitated for a moment before reaching out to accept it. His Soul Force probed into it.

Immediately, a massive quantity of information surged into his mind.

A moment passed.

"Master, will this work?" Wu Yuan couldn't help but ask, somewhat doubtful yet shocked.

"By making an open declaration, you can fool them for a while. Once you grow strong, there will naturally no longer be a need for this," High Immortal Nan Yin smiled and said, "Remember, you are now Li Xia, the strongest person in the Nine Summers World.”
