266: Chapter 101: First Steps into the World of Cultivation, Shadow_2 266: Chapter 101: First Steps into the World of Cultivation, Shadow_2 “Your father possesses great fortune, and your journey in cultivation will naturally be smooth sailing, but many others are not so fortunate.”
“After getting stuck at a bottleneck, they will resort to any ans to find a breakthrough, and killing for loot becos the norm – so long as they aren’t recognized, there’s no issue.”
“In the East Continent, the life of a Loose Cultivator is the least valued, even less than the ordinary people of the various Immortal Dynasties in the middle reaches of the East Continent.”
Li Ping’an sighed endlessly.
Well then, Nephew Yun Mo has hidden his depth quite well!
Indeed, as Xuntian Xu said, due to a series of encounters, whether it was his father’s great fortune or the influence of Castcloud Hall, and Teacher Yun Zhongzi’s guidance, Li Ping’an was held in the palm of his own sect.
The people he usually ca into contact with were all ‘good people.’
Of course, what’s more important is that the turmoil in the Wanyun Sect that happened ten thousand years ago had weeded out a group of people with ill intentions.
Now, the worst person in Wanyun Sect is perhaps Vice Sect Leader Moyi, who is rely narrow-minded and power-thirsty, at most an old-tir with mild tendencies and without killings to his na.
In other words, the current Wanyun Sect had, in fact, had its fangs pulled.
“Thank you, Brother Xuntian, for informing of all this.”
Li Ping’an raised his hand to cover the pendant on his chest and sent a voice transmission to his master, saying, “Master, what he said is also sowhat biased; most immortals in our Wanyun Sect are good.”
Qing Su grunted in agreent, seemingly a bit downcast.
Li Ping’an continued, “Brother Xuntian has yet to tell , which sects are like Blood Fiend Hall.”
“Blood Fiend Hall is the ninth-ranked demon cultivators’ group.”
“It’s not quite right to use the term ‘sect’ for them; the Demonic Path mostly doesn’t have permanent premises, and its mbers are diverse, with their own cultivation thods and no clear ntor-disciple inheritance, perhaps it’s better to refer to them as groups of demon cultivators,” Xuntian Xu said in a grave tone.
“The ranking of demon cultivators groups puts ‘Myriad Demons Heaven’ at the top.”
“The Demon Lord of Myriad Demons Heaven is said to be close to the realm of a Taiyi Golden Immortal, mysterious in identity.
Myriad Demons Heaven rose to fa in the Demonic Path over forty thousand years ago when they annihilated an entire major sect.
“Subsequently, the East Alliance dispatched immortal soldiers, wiped out many of Myriad Demons Heaven’s experts, and did not disclose the identities of these Qi Cultivators.”
“Later, with the addition of expert demon races to various major demon cultivators’ groups, Myriad Demons Heaven once again grew stronger.
They are domineering in their actions and perverse in nature, leaving their shadow in both the East and Western Continents.”
“Ranked second among demon cultivators is ‘Azure Sea Pavilion.'”
“The Pavilion Master of Azure Sea Pavilion is very secretive and rarely makes appearances.
This Azure Sea Pavilion seldom engages in murderous activities, and their foothold is on so Immortal Isles in the East Sea, typically dealing in the trade of information.”
“As far as I know, Azure Sea Pavilion has enticed a large number of Loose Cultivator experts, and many major sects maintain contact with them, such as Forge-Heaven Gate.”
“Mo Yunshen of Forge-Heaven Gate, for example, was introduced to through this Azure Sea Pavilion.”
“Third is ‘Facing Heaven Sanctuary,’ which is said to have been established by one of the foremost sects in the East Continent; they don’t often commit evil, but their strength is formidable and they are known for hunting demon cultivators.”
“The reason they are considered part of the Demonic Path is because they claim to be on the Demonic Path, be it their thod of operation, their nature, or the cultivation techniques of the mbers of Facing Heaven Sanctuary, which are all in keeping with the approaches of a major Path of Immortality sect.”
“There have been speculations that Facing Heaven Sanctuary is an instrunt of the East Alliance to monitor and regulate demon cultivators, but there is no solid evidence for this claim.”
Xuntian Xu cleared his throat and whispered, “The fourth-ranked demon cultivators group is the one I’ve pledged my loyalty to for a thousand years, the closely related ‘Pleasure Valley.'”
Li Ping’an blinked.
He had heard this na before.
Isn’t that the renowned den of vice on the East Continent that Gu Qingcheng ntioned several tis?
Xuntian Xu laughed awkwardly, “Ping’an, don’t misunderstand, I have never done anything to betray my wife!
Pleasure Valley isn’t just about running six thousand brothels; they also trade various rare and exotic treasures.
I first sought them out in search of Treasured Materials, and later, seeing that my Artifact Refining skills were decent, they took the initiative to woo .
The strength of Pleasure Valley is actually quite formidable, and there are many ruthless won inside.
Their main business is selling information to Azure Sea Pavilion, so the relationship between Pleasure Valley and Azure Sea Pavilion is actually quite good.”
Li Ping’an: …
Six, six thousand brothels catering to Qi Cultivators!
What a world, how many lonely and destitute male and female cultivators have fallen into hardship, and how many Spirit Stones they must earn every year!
Xuntian Xu continued to talk at length, and recited the top ten demon cultivators groups.
Li Ping’an keenly noted that the top six demon organizations seem to have connections with those large East Continent sects, so more and so less ‘clean.’
It seems, in this world, there is not a clear division between purity and impurity, only less or more filth.
“Thanks, Brother Xuntian, you’ve truly broadened my horizons today.”
Xuntian Xu smiled and said, “Ping’an, you are a disciple of a great sect, and you haven’t been cultivating for long, so it’s normal you haven’t co into contact with these things.
If you cultivate for three hundred years and attain the level of a True Immortal or higher, you will naturally co to know all these matters.”
Qing Su sighed through a voice transmission at Li Ping’an’s chest front.
Li Ping’an thought it was not a good sign, his master must be feeling quite upset at the mont.
—None of the elders from Caiyun Peak had ever talked about these things to Qing Su.
Let’s take care of the pressing matters first.
“Brother Xuntian, what do you think I should do about Blood Fiend Hall?” Li Ping’an asked.
“Many demons abound within Blood Fiend Hall,” Xuntian Xu replied, “when I arrived, I just happened to hear that the East Alliance has issued an eradication order.”
Li Ping’an nodded and said, “I played a role in setting that motion; my original intention was to apply pressure on both Sea Watch Sect and Blood Fiend Hall.”
Xuntian Xu’s eyes lit up, and he chuckled, “Ping’an, I am well aware of your profound background, but I hadn’t expected that you could even influence the East Alliance.”
Li Ping’an took out Tianli the Elder’s token and gave Xuntian Xu a brief rundown of the exorcism in the southeast of the Western Continent, while omitting the part about human sacrifices.
