pillar of the Qiong Yu Chamber of Commerce, it wasn't strange that the Liu surname manager knew him, Qin Sang didn't expect he had even heard of himself.After leaving Du Island, Qin Sang rarely conta..."Just for a cave"

Yuyangzi asked with a strange expression, "Does Master Qin plan to stay in the ancient battlefield of immortals and cultivate forever"

Qin Sang nodded.

“Qin Shijie, you should think this through carefully. Xuankang Pass is in the south of Xueshan Mountain Range, where our sect has circled several spiritual veins for disciples to cultivate. While the ancient battlefield does offer countless opportunities, it's not a place to stay long. Those secret realms and ancient tombs are all incredibly remote, far from towns and markets. When you need something during your cultivation, it's not only troublesome to buy but also extremely expensive. If something happens, you won't find any help. There are no benefits to cultivating there, why bother”

Even Yu Yangzi, considering their brotherhood, was worried that Qin Sang would misunderstand things and tried to dissuade him with a few words.

Qin Sang was, of course, well aware of all these drawbacks, so he did not dare to squander the spirit stones on him. He prepared to stock up on healing spirit pills, cloud tools, and other necessities before leaving.

“Thank you, senior brother, for your frank words. I understand what you mean,” Qin Sang smiled wryly, “There’s no way around it, the demands of cultivation are too great.”

"I see."

Yu Yangzi nodded, not finding it strange at all.

Mount Shao Hua boasts a collection of nearly a hundred martial arts manuals, encompassing a wide array of unique techniques. Many of these manuals are fragmented relics unearthed from ancient battlefield sites of immortals, even the Golden Core cultivators within the sect find them impenetrable.

The choice of a cultivation technique is directly related to one's ability to form an elixir and how far they can progress on the path of immortality. Should one choose wrongly, it could lead to a lifetime of regret, a saying that is not meant figuratively.

Within the sect, there are many cultivation techniques that directly point to the path of Divinity, and they have been proven to be feasible. The vast majority of people, for safety's sake, follow the paths already traversed by their predecessors. Only a very small number dare to forge their own way, choosing those incomplete fragments of cultivation techniques.

Among the martial arts passed down through Shao Hua Mountain's collection, over half of them have never been practiced by anyone.

Yu Yangzi furrowed his brow in thought. Shifu Che had entrusted him with this matter, and as fellow disciples, it wasn't right to simply dismiss him. However, this situation was indeed difficult to handle.

The sect places great importance on these secret realms. Some secret realms are even related to the lifeline of the sect, their importance comparable to that of Shaohua Mountain's main gate. He is the guardian general of Xuankang Pass and has been stationed there for decades, knowing only the location of one secret realm.

After a moment of thought, Yuyangzi's eyes suddenly lit up. He said to Qin Shidi, "Qin, the opportunity to guard the secret realm is rare and precious, but there's a roundabout way. We can rent a cave dwelling in the Tianjing Secret Realm using good deeds..."

What is called "good deeds" refers to the achievements made by members of the Skull Guard and Shadow Guard during their missions. Achievements are quantified into numerical values based on their size.

They can use good deeds to exchange for cultivation resources, many of which are rare treasures from secret realms, which are immensely helpful for cultivation. These are intentionally put out by major sects as incentives. They cannot be bought with spirit stones outside.

This is also the reason why so many people give up freedom and are willing to accept constraints, joining the Two Guards.

The location of the Sky Crystal Secret Realm is in the inner area, far from other markets and towns. It was jointly discovered by major sects, and the resources inside are also distributed jointly by the major sects, each sending people to guard it.

Since the spiritual materials and herbs produced in the Tianjing Secret Realm are not extremely precious, there is no need for strict secrecy. Later, the Tianjing Secret Realm was opened to the Xuan Skull Guards and Ying Guards. They could enter that area to perform missions, using the Tianjing Secret Realm as a base. In case of danger, they could seek refuge or hide in the Tianjing Secret Realm.

There are vacant cave dwellings in the Tiānjīng Secret Realm. If Qin Sang joined the two guards, as a member of the two guards, he could legitimately borrow a cave dwelling there.

Guarding the Skull is generally not allowed to leave the Skull Pass, Qin Sang only has one choice, which is to join the Shadow Guard.

"The guardian of the Tianjing Secret Realm is Tengnan Senior Brother from Shangyuan Qingjing Palace. I'm quite familiar with him, and I can write a letter to him for you. As long as Qin Junior Brother is willing to share some of the merit points with Tengnan Senior Brother, there will be an additional source of income for the secret realm, and another cultivator at the Foundation Establishment stage will join us. Why wouldn't he want that Yingwei receives a very generous amount of merit points from each mission, enough to support Qin Junior Brother's cultivation." Yuyangzi felt as if he had solved a difficult problem and spoke with some self-satisfaction.

The Jade 簡 introduces the concept of good deeds, and Qin Sang was already considering undertaking good deeds. Good deeds are indeed extremely valuable, but for Qin Sang right now, cultivation takes precedence.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

According to what Master Yu Yangzi told me, since the dangers in the Tianjing Secret Realm were not great, it was not damaged during exploration, and the restrictions on the secret realm were almost intact.

Those secret realms where the markets are located, although their restrictions are in place, are riddled with holes and far inferior to the Tianjing Secret Realm. Even their cave dwellings are a notch below.

Qin Sang's cultivation base during the foundation building period had high requirements for the spiritual energy of the cave abode. Since he knew about the Tianjing Secret Realm, there was no need to travel far and wide.

The only drawback is that the location of the Tiānjīng secret realm is a bit remote, which will make it inconvenient to buy and sell items in the future. However, since Qin Sang was already preparing to retreat and cultivate, it wouldn't have much impact.

Let me know if you'd like me to translate something else!

After inquiring in detail about the situation of the Heavenly Crystal Secret Realm from Yu Yangzi, Qin Sang immediately made a decision and clasped his fists together: "Thank you, senior brother, for your guidance. I am willing to join Yingwei."

Yuyangzi smiled and stroked his palms, saying: "It's good that Qin, my junior brother, can make a decision. Come with me quickly, let's go see Senior Brother Qi together."

Qin Sang followed Yu Yangzi, walking towards the passage behind the hall. The passage was long. Along the way, Qin Sang also listened to Yu Yangzi introduce Qi Shixiong's background.

Qi Shixiong's real name is Qi Yuanhu. His master was a Jindan cultivator from Shaohuashan who had passed away. Like Qin Sang, he arrived at Xuankanguan right after entering the foundation-building stage and made a name for himself in the ancient fairy battlefield.

To Qin Sang's astonishment, this person was actually a fake Dan realm expert!

The so-called false dan realm refers to cultivators who have reached the peak of the late foundation building stage, their cultivation has reached its limit, and they begin to prepare for forming a golden elixir. However, due to various reasons, they are temporarily unable to forge a golden elixir.

A master of the False Dan realm has strength that surpasses other cultivators at the late stage of the Foundation Establishment period. One step further is to achieve Great Perfection in the Golden Core, becoming a master of the Core Formation stage.

According to Yuyangzi, Qiyuan Hu is the most promising disciple among all the current foundation-building disciples of Shaohua Mountain to form a golden core. He is currently the elder of Xuankangguan, responsible for shadow guard affairs.

Although the Xuankang Pass has a Golden Core cultivator, he doesn't concern himself with mundane affairs. Matters are jointly decided by the Elders' Council, which is mainly composed of late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators from various major sects.

Among them are not only renowned sects like Huashan, Shangyuan Qingjing Palace, and Tai'e Danzong, but also many ancient lineages with long histories. However, they lack a Yuan Ying ancestor to preside over them and thus are not considered part of the Eight Sects of正道. Nevertheless, when united, their collective strength is formidable and they wield considerable influence.

Yingwei is one of the two guards at Xuankang Pass. It's impossible for Qi Yuanshi to have sole authority. There are several elders who hold equal status with Qi Yuanshi.

Qi Yuanshu was Qin Sang's senior brother from the same sect. Qin Sang joined Ying Wei with no choice but to take refuge under his tutelage.

For Qin Sang, this wasn't a bad thing. With Qi Yuanhu watching over him, he wouldn't have to worry about being inexplicably ambushed or assigned to extremely dangerous missions.
