Due to the rampage of demon beasts, this place has gathered almost all the cultivators from Yun Province, making it even more lively than usual.
With more people around, there are also nurous patrol teams maintaining the peace here.
Clearly, the demon beast attack is both a disaster and an opportunity for the Celestial Travel Sect.
If they can seize the opportunity to absorb talents from the entire province while defending against the demon race attack, they are bound to evolve and grow stronger.
"Lord Shen, what should we do next?"
Chen Xiaolei looked at the scene in front of him with so confusion, not knowing what to do, and asked softly.
"Go sell these talismans and exchange them for spirit stones, then find a place to stay close to the array area."
Shen Wang handed a large stack of unused talismans to Chen Xiaolei.
Just now, he said nothing while passing the checkpoint, and this person gave out his spirit stones without hesitation, which was a small test. Now he naturally reciprocates.
In these chaotic tis, the most valuable thing is various cultivation resources.
And aggressive talismans and magical artifacts are essential among them; selling this stack of talismans for thousands of spirit stones is easy.
Chen Xiaolei paid him a hundred spirit stones, now receiving a tenfold return.
"Yes, Elder Shen."
Chen Xiaolei took a look and imdiately showed a happy expression.
These talismans are quite good, suitable for either personal use or sale.
"et here in one day; I have so things to take care of."
Shen Wang pointed to a place, then walked into the crowd, acting alone.
After he left, another Foundation Establishnt cultivator spoke up: "Senior brother, this place looks good and quite stable."
"It’s just an appearance. Once a group of demon beasts arrives, these people outside are the first to face death, rely helping Celestial Travel Sect to fend off a wave of demon beasts."
Chen Xiaolei shook his head: "We still have to find a way to enter the array, or leave here quickly for a safer place."
"Hmm, let’s ask around later on how we can get in. If it’s just about offering spirit stones, it might not be as simple as just a hundred or two hundred spirit stones."
His junior brother showed a worried face.
"Don’t think too much. Perform well and strive to follow the seniors out of here. However bustling it may be, it’s still facing a massive demon beast army now."
Chen Xiaolei said seriously.
"Yes, the pressure surely increases closer to the Desolate Ancient Mountain Range."
The group began to handle their belongings to exchange for more suitable resources.
Shen Wang was not in a hurry to do anything, strolling leisurely in the mountains.
He was different from those gathered here due to the disaster; he was neither anxious nor hasty, seemingly moving from peaceful tis, leisurely and relaxed.
Shen Wang enjoyed the scenery, trying to find traces from his mories in the changes.
Unfortunately, he was a bit disappointed; there were few familiar traces, representing he could never return to the past.
"The past fades in the wind, no need for attachnts."
He smiled and shook his head, so thoughts in his heart dissipated, leaving behind no stubbornness.
He had no grievances with Celestial Travel Sect, no need for sorrow.
His footsteps beca lighter, and Shen Wang planned to find an opportunity to sneak into Celestial Travel Sect to gather intel, checking if soone was indeed researching demonic qi.
In his view, what’s behind the Demon Cave is more terrifying than these demon races; at least demons are creatures of this world, magic is different, and what can descend upon this realm would be very frightening.
Additionally, he was curious about Liu Shan’s situation; the eerie scales he saw back then made him always suspect sothing, needing to find people to verify.
His gaze fell on the Sect Protection Array, where the defenses were nurous, and powerful figures were vigilant, making it quite difficult to sneak in.
He stealthily approached.
The Sect Protection Array was vast; there would inevitably be weak points in the defense.
As he approached the array, the nearby crowd suddenly began to stir.
"Celestial Travel Sect is recruiting again; let’s go check it out."
"If chosen, even doing chores can get you inside the array, much safer than outside."
"Heard the resources are tight in Celestial Travel Sect too, and now even doing chores requires late-stage Qi Cultivation; the competition is intense."
"Hmph, I don’t need any pay, as long as I can get inside the array."
Shen Wang listened to the conversations of many people, then the commotion spread, and the crowd beca agitated.
"Recruitnt?"
Shen Wang noticed the crowd gathering toward the left front position, thought for a mont, and walked over neither quickly nor slowly.
Though seemingly walking slowly, in reality, he moved swiftly, essentially among the first batch to reach the recruitnt point.
Here was a huge platform, over ten zhang long, with flags representing the Celestial Travel Sect’s emblem planted around its edges.
A group of cultivators from the Celestial Travel Sect walked out on the platform.
Shen Wang saw a familiar figure among these people.
Ten years had passed, and she was still gracefully attractive, appearing unchanged, complented with a touch more charm since their first eting.
Han Wan’Er was tall and slender; she stood quietly on the platform, her hair fluttering in the wind, adorned with a jade hairpin, looking exquisite in her moon-white long dress, her skin snow-white, quite appealing.
"Han Wan’Er... has she reached Foundation Establishnt?"
Shen Wang’s eyes flickered slightly; this woman was still alive, unseen for ten years, having advanced her cultivation from mid-stage Qi Cultivation to early-stage Foundation Establishnt, her aura slightly unstable, obviously just broken through.
Unfortunately, all this was gained by abandoning husband and daughter, Shen Wang wouldn’t feel pleased for her, not at all.
Han Wan’Er did not notice Shen Wang within the crowd.
Shen Wang’s high cultivation kept him hidden, making it difficult for others to detect him.
At the center of the high platform stood a handso and muscular youth, his cultivation at late-stage Foundation Establishnt, his gaze tinged with light silver, standing in the main position, the presiding person of this recruitnt.
Shen Wang knew this person; he was part of the direct lineage of the Long Family affiliated with Celestial Travel Sect, nad Longxing Continent, his talent outstanding, being a gold attribute top-grade single spirit root, younger than him and once was soone he envied.
But now, the situation has changed; he no longer regards this person highly.
Longxing Continent also did not notice Shen Wang; he looked at the gathering crowd and spoke loudly: "Everyone, this recruitnt follows the old rules, with priority for those experienced in killing sa-level demons or with unique skills. Cultivation must be a minimum of seventh-layer Qi Cultivation, accomplishing Foundation Establishnt can directly join. We are not recruiting disciples this ti, only patrol guards and candidate stewards."
His loud voice caused many people to show disappointnt.
"Oh, why has the requirent increased by a layer again, from sixth to seventh is quite a threshold."
"I have no hope now, should have taken a risk last ti and gone to kill a Little Demon."
Hearing the requirents, many people wisely backed away, leaving space.
"Old rules, co up and showcase the demons you have slain in the past three days for strength testing, or demonstrate your skills. We particularly welco Talisman Masters, Alchemists, and Artifact Refiners. If there are Poison Masters or Physicians, you may also give it a try."
Longxing Continent spoke indifferently, waving his hand, and people around imdiately placed so testing magical artifacts below the stage.
