Chapter 278: Chapter 277: Six Desires Venerable, Entering the Secret Realm (4th Update, Please Subscribe)
Then, Jin Xi spoke of some secrets of demon cultivation.
Some demon cultivators, after acquiring a few demonic cultivation techniques, begin their cultivation. Such demon cultivators are called Scattered Demons; others join a great Demon Sect, engaging in systematic cultivation and studying the classics of the Demon Sect, thus becoming orthodox demon cultivators.
Orthodox demon cultivators, in terms of potential, combat power, great Dao insights, or magic insights, surpass ordinary Scattered Demons.
The great Demon Sects follow the rule of easy entry and strict exit. As long as one cultivates demonic techniques, they count as a menial disciple. However, to become an Outer Disciple, one needs Foundation Establishment cultivation, to become an Inner Sect Disciple one at least needs to be a Golden Core, and to become a true disciple of the Demon Sect, one needs at least Nascent Soul cultivation or potential.
In this aspect, Demon Sects are stricter than Immortal Sects.
"What is the Yin Yang Secret Realm?"
Lu Xuanji asked.
"The Yin Yang Secret Realm is the relic of the ancient Joyful Union Demon Vein, rumored to be a broken Grotto Heaven." Jin Xi said with a hint of a mysterious smile: "In the ancient era, the Joyful Union Demon Sect was merely an insignificant small sect, yet it produced the Supreme Great Demon, the Joyful Union Old Demon!"
"During the time of the Demon Emperor’s existence, naturally, no one dared to provoke the Joyful Union Demon Sect. But after this Demon Emperor’s ascension, countless great forces united in an assault, leading to the annihilation of the Joyful Union Demon Sect, with numerous demonic classics scattering everywhere. Following that, various strong individuals claimed to have received the inheritance of the Joyful Union Demon Emperor, and subsequently, some great Demon Sects were established."
"In Yue Country, there is the Joyful Union Demon Sect; in Central State, there is the Joyful Union Demon Sect; overseas, there is the Joyful Union Demon Sect; in the Land of the Far North, there is also the Joyful Union Demon Sect... There are about dozens of sects bearing the banner of the Joyful Union Demon Sect. The weakest sects merely have Nascent Soul holders, but some powerful Joyful Union Demon Sects have Harmonization experts in command."
"These Joyful Union Demon Sects scattered around various places collectively constitute the Joyful Union Demon Vein."
"So, you’re saying, the Joyful Union Demon Vein in Yue Country is just a sham!" Lu Xuanji said.
"It’s not quite that, because the Joyful Union Demon Sect in Yue Country has received part of the inheritance from a disciple of the Joyful Union Old Demon, with its foundational cultivation technique being the Six Desires Red Dust Scripture, which accounts for being part of the Joyful Union Demon Vein!" Jin Xi said: "Legend has it that the founder of the Joyful Union Sect in Yue Country, when young, was fittingly a little shepherd boy. While shepherding, the sheep went missing."
"The shepherd boy searched for the sheep, wandering until he fell into the Yin Yang Secret Realm, where he received an inheritance in the relic, embarking on the path of cultivation, eventually becoming a Divinity Transformation strong person, and founded the Joyful Union Demon Sect in Yue Country! At that time, Yue Country and Chu Country were one entity, but this old divinity transformation demon cultivated and launched a great war, defeating the allied forces of Chu Country!"
"Chu Country was forced, unwillingly, to relinquish a third of its territory to this old divinity transformation demon, thus creating the current Yue Country."
Lu Xuanji, somewhat nervous, said: "In Yue Country, there is a Divinity Transformation guarding!"
"Yes!"
Jin Xi said: "However, you don’t need to overly worry. According to legend, this old divinity transformation demon has been traveling or in seclusion outside, and there hasn’t been any news for a thousand years."
The two conversed while not slowing their pace, advancing towards the location of the secret realm.
At the entrance of the secret realm, a group of cultivators had already gathered.
"Xi Yue True Monarch, you’re here to join the fun too!"
At this moment, a hearty voice sounded. Following the voice, it was an elder at the Golden Core stage, utterly white-haired and bearded, with a stout body, holding a giant axe in hand, exuding a powerful aura.
"A junior reached a certain checkpoint, happened to enter, and might encounter a fortuitous opportunity!" Jin Xi said with a smile but added: "Xuanji, this is Sun Weiyi, an Elder of the Beast Taming Sect in Wu Country. Why not go forward and greet him?"
"Greetings to Elder Sun!"
Lu Xuanji stepped forward and said respectfully.
"Your Qi and blood are vigorous, just a step away from entering the Golden Core, remarkable for someone so young!" Elder Sun said with a smile, then added: "Here, I must congratulate the senior for entering the True Monarch realm, with longevity in sight!"
"Elder Sun’s aptitude is astonishing, nearly reaching the Nascent Soul stage. Soon, we will be fellow cultivators once more!" Jin Xi replied with a laugh: "As for calling me a senior, let’s just skip that part!"
After a brief conversation, Sun Weiyi stepped aside.
Subsequently, various cultivators came forward to pay their respects to the True Monarch.
A Nascent Soul powerhouse, whether from the demon path, the righteous path, or the demon race, is a top-level figure enough to command their reverence.
Some Jin Xi conversed with briefly, others simply nodded as a greeting.
Meanwhile, Jin Xi exchanged divine thoughts, introducing some sects around.
A group of cultivators in ancient garb with Beast Taming Pouches at their waists belonged to the Beast Taming Sect; A group clad in battle armor, with stout bodies, emanating fiery Qi and blood like a blazing sun, belonged to the Flame Sect;
A group of female cultivators, with hundreds of flowers in bloom, some charming and enchanting, some pure and lovely, some serene and elegant, some sweet and innocent, belonged to the Hundred Flowers Sect.
Also, a group of cultivators, one male and female intimately leaning against each other, with affection like flowing water, belonged to the Joyful Union Demon Sect.
Additionally, there were a group of cultivators, though in human form, exuded overwhelming demonic presence, were demon race cultivators.
As the Yin Yang Secret Realm opened, many came, led by seniors, including those from Yue Country, Chu Country, the demon race, and overseas cultivators.
Some came in small numbers, merely two or three people;
Some came in larger groups, with twenty or thirty people.
Seeing that the hour was near, at this time, a female cultivator from the Joyful Union Sect stepped forward and said: "This secret realm belongs to the Joyful Union Demon Vein and was later transformed by Patriarch Six Desires Venerable into a supreme paradise. Our Joyful Union Sect doesn’t plan to hoard it exclusively, but if you want to enter this secret realm, each must pay one hundred thousand Spirit Stones."
"As for the fortuitous opportunities inside and the treasures seized, they all belong to the individual!"
"If techniques are obtained, they can be exchanged at our Joyful Union Sect for corresponding rewards."
"Everyone, please enter!"
This female cultivator stood at the entrance of the secret realm, beginning to charge the fee.
Many cultivators came forward, paying one hundred thousand Spirit Stones, then entering the secret realm.
One hundred thousand Spirit Stones, for a Purple Mansion Cultivator, is insignificant.
No one considered becoming debtful.
Even Lu Xuanji paid the one hundred thousand Spirit Stones, then stepped onto the Teleportation Array, entering the secret realm.
...
The void changed, and in the next moment, Lu Xuanji appeared in a world.
Before his eyes was a Great Mountain, with rivers flowing in the distance, and far-off Medicine Gardens, rich Spiritual Qi, the aromatic scent of plants and trees, and some Spirit Beasts wandering about.
Sensing with divine thought, the area of this secret realm is about a thousand square kilometers.
In the secret realm, there are twelve Medicine Gardens, with Spirit Gathering Arrays within them. The smallest Spirit Medicine is three thousand years old, and the oldest is already thirty thousand years old.
This secret realm, after the transformation by Six Desires Demon Venerable, became a Medicine Garden for the Joyful Union Demon Sect.
It allows cultivators from other sects to enter, to snatch Spirit Medicines from each other, engage in slaughter, thereby honing the cultivators of the Joyful Union Demon Vein.
