Chapter 859 - 859 373 Sheltered by Fortune The Profound
Chapter 859: Chapter 373: Sheltered by Fortune, The Profound Yellow Realm a Century Later, Mortal Geniuses Emerge_6 Chapter 859: Chapter 373: Sheltered by Fortune, The Profound Yellow Realm a Century Later, Mortal Geniuses Emerge_6 “You’re right; once the Xuanhuang Scripture has been completely disseminated, those cultivator families knew that their resistance was futile, as nearly every household had access to this cultivation technique. Hence, they gave up struggling.”
“Thankfully, we have the Xuanhuang Sect presiding over us, or else where would we mortals find the chance to rise?”
Many mortals chattered, filled with immense emotion.
They were all grateful for the actions of the Xuanhuang Sect, which had blazed an unprecedented path for mortals, allowing everyone the opportunity to practice cultivation and embark on the journey to immortality.
It could be said that this had completely altered the landscape of the cultivation world, giving birth to a multitude of strong individuals.
“Haha, even if you really learn the Xuanhuang Scripture, don’t assume you can truly embark on the path of cultivation.”
“You must know that there are four major realms on the path of martial arts, namely, the Body Tempering Realm, Postnatal Realm, Innate Realm, and the Martial True Dan Realm and so on. It is extremely difficult to make a breakthrough in each realm.”
“Since the birth of the Xuanhuang Scripture, how many have truly managed to cultivate to the Martial True Dan Realm?”
“It’s considered good enough to be able to cultivate to the Postnatal Realm.”
At this time, a middle-aged man wearing a vest beside them scoffed, throwing cold water on the discussion.
When he had started cultivating, he too was full of longing and brimming with confidence, believing that he would surely become a lofty immortal and gain a lifespan of a thousand years.
But even after decades, he was still only at the Postnatal Realm.
How far away he was from the Innate Realm was anybody’s guess.
He had finally realized that with his limited aptitude, becoming a lofty immortal in this lifetime was an impossible dream.
“That’s not necessarily the case.”
“Our practice of the Xuanhuang Scripture is not only for the sake of becoming immortals.”
“It is also for strengthening the body and maintaining good health.”
“After all, in these tough times, with rampant banditry and wars ablaze, practicing the Xuanhuang Scripture also empowers us with the strength to fight, so we don’t perish in the flames of war.”
Someone by the side spoke softly.
Hearing this, the people around nodded in agreement, all feeling the same way.
The Xuanhuang Sect indeed had unified the Profound Yellow Realm, but what it implemented was a system of enfeoffment.
The Profound Yellow Realm was vast beyond measure.
In terms of area, the current Profound Yellow Realm, being still in its growth phase, naturally couldn’t compare to the Spirit World.
But compared to the Cultivation World of the past, it had grown many times over.
Such an immense landmass was beyond the full control of the Xuanhuang Sect.
As long as they could maintain a certain degree of stability, that was entirely sufficient.
Unless there was warfare that spread across the entire world, the Xuanhuang Sect wouldn’t intervene.
They couldn’t even if they wanted to.
Because there simply weren’t enough hands to do so.
Most of the areas weren’t under the control of the Xuanhuang Sect; they were under the control of local forces.
These places could be considered autonomous regions.
Therefore, to fight for Spirit Veins, Spiritual Medicine, territories, and others, the major forces would often wage war.
This led to many mortals living in hardship, frequently affected by warfare.
That’s why mortals naturally wished to have the power to protect themselves, so as not to fall victim to invading bandits.
“You’re saying it right.”
Wu Wubing too felt it made perfect sense and agreed wholeheartedly.
His desire for cultivation stemmed from the multitude of bandits near Wu Village.
One never knew when Wu Village could fall prey to a raid by bandits.
To take control of his destiny, he had wanted to pursue cultivation.
Now that he couldn’t cultivate, he naturally wanted to learn martial arts to wield great power.
“Honestly, do we have a chance to join the Xuanhuang Sect?”
Someone asked curiously.
Because the Profound Yellow Sect is a world-renowned Sect, with influence spread across the world. If one could join the Profound Yellow Sect, then the future might be full of hope.
“Join the Profound Yellow Sect? Dream on.”
“Do you know what kind of Sect the Profound Yellow Sect is?”
“There are countless Sects in the world dedicated to Cultivation.”
“But only the Profound Yellow Sect is the strongest, the Superior Sect, ruling over the entire world.”
“Unless you’re an unparalleled genius, wanting to join the Profound Yellow Sect is sheer folly.”
“Even among those Cultivators with a Spiritual Root, very few can become Disciples of the Profound Yellow Sect.”
The middle-aged man in a vest sneered repeatedly, thinking these people were indulging in wild fantasies, truly a bunch of villagers who had no conception of how vast the world was.
If these villagers knew what kind of Sect the Profound Yellow Sect was, they probably wouldn’t dare to voice their desire to join it. Such is the bliss of ignorance.
“You’re right, and the Profound Yellow Sect isn’t located in our Qingzhou Continent, but rather, countless miles away on the Xuan Huang Continent, which requires an Ancient Teleportation Array to reach.”
“It is said that the Xuan Huang Continent is the true holy land of Cultivation, the dream destination of countless Cultivators. The land there is so fertile, plant Spiritual Medicine, and it grows rapidly. Plant any grain, and it can yield a hundred thousand catties per mu. There, you won’t see people starving to death nor any wars.”
“Isn’t that the case? Everyone who has been to the Xuan Huang Continent hasn’t wanted to return. Unfortunately, I can’t afford the expenses to get there, otherwise I would have gone to live there too.”
The crowd discussed among themselves, the envy in their voices palpable.
Unfortunately, for ordinary people, going to the Xuan Huang Continent is virtually impossible.
Let alone going to the Xuan Huang Continent, even traveling thousands of miles away is extremely difficult.
One careless moment and you could die on the road.
After all, there are many robbers along the way, and it’s hard to guarantee one’s safety.
They could only talk about it, going there was out of the question, they simply couldn’t do it.
“Forget it, forget it, it’s pointless to talk about this, it’s still too far away for us.”
“Rather than joining the Profound Yellow Sect, it’s better to consider other Cultivation Sects. The odds are slightly better.”
“We should just study the Xuanhuang Scripture.”
Someone waved their hand, feeling that these things were too remote and didn’t really relate to ordinary people.
In fact, even for Cultivators with a Spiritual Root, going to the Xuan Huang Continent is an extremely difficult endeavor.
Not to mention ordinary mortals.
At this moment, Wu Wubing had no interest in what others were saying; his eyes were fixed on the massive black stele. The content of the Profound Yellow Realm was flooding into the depths of his Sea of Consciousness like a tide.
At this time, he was sitting cross-legged on the ground, seemingly entering a state of sudden enlightenment.
Deep within his body, a mysterious pearl was continually emitting strands of mysterious aura, aiding his cultivation.
This mysterious pearl was a stroke of fortune Wu Wubing encountered when he was a child.
Once when he was playing on the mountain behind his home, suddenly, a meteorite fell from the sky, becoming a shooting star that struck his body in an instant, and the mysterious pearl merged with him.
This pearl, known as the Gluttonous Pearl, seemed to be a mystical treasure.
As long as it devoured food and various heavenly materials and earthly treasures, it would release strands of mysterious aura that strengthened the physique.
It was because of this treasure that Wu Wubing remained healthful and strong as an ox.
Now, as he cultivated the Xuanhuang Scripture, this treasure also seemed to be creating a miraculous phenomenon.
Strands of aura were instantly absorbed into his body, helping him to quickly enter a deep state of cultivation.
Boom~~
At that moment, the black stele seemed to sense something, and each character on it radiated golden light, as if it were a supremely sacred text emerging, dazzlingly bright, enveloping ten thousand li, vast and mighty.
As if at that moment, the power of the stele resonated with Wu Wubing’s aura.
Thud!
The next second, a beam of light shot out from the stele and into Wu Wubing’s body, causing a golden pattern to appear between his eyebrows, strikingly mysterious.
