Cultivation: I Can Reincarnate Into Various Worlds-Chapter 689 - 350. Ascend to the Chiming World (Part 2)_2

To deal with demonic beasts of the same level, Human Clan cultivators from major sects can easily gain the upper hand by relying on Divine Dao Treasures. Otherwise, if unstoppable Wicked Guests were to arrive, he would not be so reckless as to rush forward.

Just right. I, this Old Man, have just taken over Yishen Palace and am in need of a Sect Protecting Spirit Beast. This Earth Dragon can advance to Nascent Soul within a thousand years; its potential is clearly considerable... The Feather Robed Elder secretly weighed his options.

Within the same realm, the Human Clan often has the advantage against untamed demonic beasts. Moreover, he was a Nascent Soul Later Stage Cultivator, with the support of his fellow sect members. Subduing a Fourth-stage Demon Beast would be a simple matter.

However, just as the Feather Robed Elder was about to leave the Sect Protecting Great Formation and join forces with his fellow Dao Lords to subdue the Earth Dragon... He saw the youth in a green robe sitting cross-legged on the dragon's head, and his face turned pale. The left foot he had extended, he immediately retracted.

If it were just an early fourth-stage Earth Dragon demonic beast, it would not be terrifying in the Cultivation World. But if it was a tamed Spirit Beast, that meant something entirely different.

This person... at the very least, he's a Nascent Soul Daoist Lord, and may even be a Nascent Soul Grand Practitioner...

Just now, our Divine Senses could only perceive the Earth Dragon demonic beast, without any sight of him. This demonstrates his strength...

His aura is like clouds and mist. At first glance, he seems like a mortal, but upon closer inspection, it's like a vast, deep abyss...

Inside the Sect Protecting Great Formation, the faces of several Nascent Soul Dao Lords of the Yanshen Sect darkened as they communicated via voice transmission. A cultivator who seemed to be a Nascent Soul Grand Practitioner had arrived on a Flood Dragon, stopping before the mountain gate of the Yanshen Sect. It looked like they harbored ill intentions.

"Prepare for the worst!" the Feather Robed Elder sighed.

"That is all we can do." The Dao Lords of the Yanshen Sect nodded unanimously and ended their voice transmissions.

Among them, a Middle-aged Taoist Nun hesitated for a moment before stepping forward, cupping her hands in greeting towards Xu Xing, and saying, "I wonder why Daoist Friend has come to our Yanshen Sect... What is the matter? If it is something important, it would be best to present a name card... or send a talismanic message in advance!"

When cultivators visit other sects with good intentions, they usually present their name cards before visiting. Not presenting name cards usually implies Wicked Guests. The Middle-aged Taoist Nun had two intentions in saying this. If Xu Xing's intentions were good, these words served as a tactful reminder for him to observe etiquette. If Xu Xing's intentions were malicious, this would also provide the Yanshen Sect with a justifiable cause for their actions. In the Cultivation World, unless one possesses the power to dominate an entire domain, the reputation of the "Righteous Path" is extremely important and must not be easily damaged.

"When I last came to this place, it did not belong to the Yanshen Sect!" Xu Xing, sitting cross-legged on the head of the Earth Dragon, said with a faint smile. If this place belonged to the Yanshen Sect, he would have presented his name card without issue. But he clearly remembered that the old site of Yishen Palace had not belonged to the Yanshen Sect for more than two hundred years.

The Middle-aged Taoist Nun was at a loss for words. The other Dao Lords of the Yanshen Sect heard this and immediately frowned. A hint of alertness flashed in their eyes as they stared at Xu Xing. The ownership of Yishen Palace's old site was also a point of contention for the Yanshen Sect. Currently, in the Cultivation World of Jin State, their Yanshen Sect was powerful. They occupied this Spirit Land, and no other Daoist Sect dared to challenge their claim. But... what they feared was people from Yishen Palace coming to reclaim this Spirit Land. From Xu Xing's tone, they worried he might be a former House Elder of Yishen Palace.

"I came here to obtain an item..." Xu Xing glanced at the Dao Lords of the Yanshen Sect and flicked his sleeve, unleashing the might of his Nascent Soul Stage.

The Nascent Soul Stage: a realm close to that of Immortals. The might of a Nascent Soul Stage cultivator, possessing a fraction of an Immortal's power, could cause mountains to collapse, rivers to flow backward, and the heavens to overturn. Xu Xing's Nascent Soul Stage might, though not quite as terrifying, was not far from it. As this might descended upon the Yanshen Sect's Sect Protecting Great Formation, the five-colored protective array instantly cracked, on the verge of shattering.

"Senior... Senior, please withdraw your Magic Power! We will open the array formation right away..." Seeing this, the Feather Robed Elder and the others were horrified and quickly begged for mercy. They realized Xu Xing wasn't incapable of breaking their Sect Protecting Great Formation; he was merely unwilling to bully the weak.

However, amidst their horror, a sense of joy also bloomed in their hearts. The fall of Yishen Palace to an unknown power and the death of its Nascent Soul Saint Monarch in battle were undeniable facts. Therefore, they inferred that Xu Xing, this Nascent Soul Saint Monarch, was definitely not from Yishen Palace. He had no direct conflict of interest with their Yanshen Sect.

"Good." Xu Xing nodded, flicked his sleeve, and retracted all his Magic Power. Then, with a single step, he teleported inside the Yanshen Sect's mountain gate.

It seems... Senior Sister Yan has successfully made a breakthrough and reached the Nascent Soul Stage... Xu Xing opened the spatial rift he had created more than two hundred years ago. Seeing that the Voice Transmission Talisman inside had been taken, he knew Yan Luanqing had emerged from her seclusion and successfully broken through to the Nascent Soul Stage. After mastering Dao Principles, Nascent Soul Stage cultivators gain the ability to analyze the World. In other words, only Nascent Soul Stage cultivators could perceive the Voice Transmission Talisman he had placed in this spatial rift more than two hundred years prior.

Having obtained the information he sought, Xu Xing did not plan to linger. He turned, preparing to return to the top of the Earth Dragon's head, leave Jin State, and head to his rendezvous point with Yan Luanqing. His deliberate display of cultivation just now, meant to awe the Yanshen Sect cultivators, wasn't to flaunt his power or act tyrannically. His true purpose was merely to gain entry into the Yanshen Sect's mountain gate to check on the "mechanism" he had arranged there over two hundred years ago. Sometimes, an appropriate display of one's cultivation can prevent much trouble. Besides, shattering the Yanshen Sect's Sect Protecting Great Formation without a word was not his style.

"Senior, please wait..." Just as Xu Xing was about to ascend on the Flood Dragon, the Yanshen Sect's Middle-aged Taoist Nun hesitated for a moment, then gritted her teeth, stepped forward, and called out to him.

"What is it?" Xu Xing frowned. He pressed down on the ascending Earth Dragon with his hand, a hint of displeasure on his face as he asked the question. He didn't need to guess; he knew the Yanshen Sect cultivator had called him at this moment because they had a request. He had seen and encountered such situations many times in the Cultivation World. However, he wasn't particularly bothered by it. If the Yanshen Sect could offer something that interested him as recompense, and the request wasn't too demanding, he was willing to lend a hand if it was a small effort.

"In a few years, it will be the Ascending to Immortality Convention in Jin State. At that time, many Sects will make an appearance..." the Middle-aged Taoist Nun quickly stated. "Our Sect is willing to offer a Nascent Soul Treasure in exchange for Senior making an appearance at the Ascending to Immortality Convention and announcing that you have joined My Sect... Furthermore, you would need to protect My Sect three times within the next thousand years."

"Protect them three times within a thousand years?" Xu Xing shook his head. "I do not have that much spare time. Besides, it's unlikely your sect's Nascent Soul Treasure would suit my taste." He refused outright. In a thousand years, his realm might have surpassed the Nascent Soul Stage. Why would he care about a Nascent Soul Stage Treasure then? Moreover, he doubted that the Nascent Soul Treasure offered by the Yanshen Sect would significantly benefit him; it was likely just something trivial.

"If providing protection three times is not possible, then... how about leaving behind three strands of your Magic Power?" Hearing this, the Middle-aged Taoist Nun was not discouraged; it seemed she had anticipated this response. She quickly proposed an alternative condition. Compared to providing protection three times, leaving three strands of Magic Power seemed far more reasonable.

Xu Xing pondered for a moment before saying, "Three strands of Magic Power would be acceptable, but I wish to see your sect's treasure first! Magic Power at the Nascent Soul Stage—each strand is immensely valuable. Never mind my own expenditure, merely condensing these strands of Magic Power requires an astronomical amount of resources..."

A Foundation Establishment Cultivator might meditate for half a year and fully restore their Magic Power. As for cultivators at subsequent realms like Returning Core and Dao Pill, they might need to spend several years, decades, or even centuries to fully replenish their Magic Power reserves. This was also why the cultivators of East Huangzhou were so astonished to learn that Xu Xing had advanced to the Primordial Spirit in less than a thousand years of cultivation. Logically, for Xu Xing to cultivate to the Nascent Soul Stage, accumulating sufficient Magic Power alone should have taken several hundred years, if not more.
