In other places, most would have Lower Grade Spiritual Roots.
But in Xuan Huang Continent, at the very least, they had Mid Grade Spiritual Roots, Upper Grade Spiritual Roots, and even the probability of encountering a Heavenly Spirit Root was quite high.
This also led to the Human Cultivators of Xuan Huang Continent having incredibly astonishing aptitudes, with an average level that was higher than those of other continents.
“It’s actually an Eighth Stage Spirit Vein. It seems that the Xuan Huang Realm truly doesn’t differ much from the Spirit World anymore.”
Golden Bamboo Taoist and the others’ pupils constricted.
They truly and genuinely felt the changes that had occurred in the now completely transformed Cultivation World. If there were Eighth Stage Spirit Veins, it meant that they had the chance to advance even further.
Perhaps in the future, they could become Cultivators of the Void Refining, even Union Cultivators, Mahayana Cultivators, and so on.
All in all, a path to immortality seemed to have been laid out in this world.
“What exactly do you intend to do with us?”
“Although we indeed fled from battle during the war in the Ancient Era.”
“We have always been Human Cultivators and have done nothing bad to the Human clan.”
“No matter how you look at it, we haven’t committed any grave offenses, right?”
Golden Bamboo Taoist said in a deep voice, looking at Zhao Yan.
“Indeed, being cowardly is not a crime.”
“Had you fought in the battles of the Ancient Era, the Cultivation World would definitely not have ended up so desolate.”
“However, it was precisely because of your desertion that the Human clan suffered heavy losses and nearly faced extinction.”
“If we simply let you go, how would we justify it to those sacrificed heroes of the Human clan?”
“You should feel lucky that you don’t carry much karmic debt.”
“If you were beset by karmic debt, you would have been executed long ago and never had the chance to come to Xuan Huang Continent.”
Zhao Yan stated indifferently.
In fact, almost all of the God Transformation cultivators from the Ancient Era had been killed by the Sect Master. Barely a hundred survived, so it was clear that not many of these relics were good people.
But as they say, heaven has a virtue of good life; for these cultivators with little karmic debt, the Xuanhuang Sect still planned to give them a chance for redemption.
“Since you don’t wish to kill us, what do you want to do with us? Do you want to imprison us?”
Golden Bamboo Taoist and the others said helplessly.
They had just left one prison, only to find themselves in another.
How unfairly heaven seemed to treat them.
“Well, simply imprisoning you would be letting you off too easily.”
“You need reformation through labor and to make contributions to the current Human clan.”
“Of course, your crimes are not punishable by death. As long as you serve the Xuanhuang Sect for three thousand years, you can leave and regain your freedom.”
Zhao Yan said bluntly.
What?!
Upon hearing these words, Golden Bamboo Taoist and the others turned pale, not knowing what to say. Even for God Transformation cultivators, the loss of three thousand years of freedom was an unbearably painful deprivation, tantamount to exhausting most of their lifespan.
But one must bow their head under another’s roof.
Several days later.
Xuan Huang Continent, in a certain place.
This was a prison that housed Ancient Cultivators.
Golden Bamboo Taoist and the others were imprisoned here, along with dozens or hundreds of Ancient God Transformation cultivators.
Clearly, every God Transformation cultivator here knew each other well.
They had encountered each other countless times during the Ancient Era.
“Hey, isn’t that Golden Bamboo Taoist? You’ve been caught too.”
A God Transformation cultivator greeted Golden Bamboo Taoist.
“Silver Serpent old freak, I can’t believe you’re still alive. Has the Xuanhuang Sect gone blind? How can they not see that you’re an unscrupulous scoundrel?” Golden Bamboo Taoist retorted with irritation.
He and Silver Serpent old freak were archenemies, having fought countless times in the Ancient Era.
But each was equal to the other, neither able to best the other.
Of course, he also knew that the other party wasn’t entirely evil, merely a cultivator who practiced bitter cultivation.
Though he did not save mortals, he didn’t harm them either.
In short, the other party did not carry much karmic debt, which is why he had managed to survive, merely imprisoned here.
“Heh, if you’re dead, I’m surely not.”
“The Xuanhuang Sect has discerning eyes, recognizing that I’m a true moral True Immortal and dared not harm me.”
“Otherwise, they would surely lose fortune and face divine punishment.”
“I didn’t expect that your Spirit Concealment Sect would be wiped out, which is akin to the complete destruction of the sect.”
Silver Serpent old freak gloated, quite proud of himself.
“Nonsense, who told you it was wiped out?”
“It’s just a temporary imprisonment, that’s all. Once the penalty period is over, one can leave just the same.”
Golden Bamboo Taoist said through gritted teeth.
Now he too was without any recourse. After all, Xuanhuang Sect’s power was great, and their rules were rules.
No one could defy them.
“All right, all right, we’re all in the same boat. Why be so confrontational?”
“If we want to advance further in the future, I’m afraid we all need to help and look out for each other.”
“After all, the times have changed now, and we God Transformation cultivators are not the strongest in the Profound Yellow Realm.”
“I heard that the Sect Master of Xuan Huang Sect, Xuanhuang Ancestor, is about to step into Unity.”
A God Transformation cultivator said, attempting to mediate between Golden Bamboo Taoist and Silver Serpent old freak.
His name was Daoist Yulong, a God Transformation Completion cultivator. Among these ancient God Transformation figures, he had a relatively high status.
So when he spoke, both parties calmed down.
