114: Traveling abroad, the Hehuan Sect

At one hundred and seven years old, you felt restless and wanted to travel.

Come to think of it, you have been in this world for nearly a hundred years, yet you have only ever observed the outside world through the nano spirit pearl and have never traveled personally.

Previously, you did not travel simply because you feared death, feeling that your strength was insufficient and you might end up dying in some unknown corner.

Things are different now; you have achieved Rebirth from a single drop of blood. As long as you keep a drop of blood on the Floating Island, even if you are killed outside, you can be reborn using that drop of blood.

The Azure Nether Sect possesses a projection of the High Grade Heaven-Reaching Spirit Treasure "Destiny Track Immortal Record," as well as a second-grade grand Formation set up with the High Grade Spirit Treasure "Space-Severing Mirror" as its base—the Azure Nether Heaven-Severing Formation!

This grand Formation can withstand intrusion from any means of a Spirit Transformation Divine Monarch or below; even when it is in a silent state, means below the Spirit Transformation level cannot intrude into the Azure Nether Sect.

Therefore, you are not worried that any Nascent Soul Heavenly Lord could follow your Karma to sever and destroy the resurrection method you left behind.

As for whether someone above the Spirit Transformation level would make a move against you, let alone why anyone would harm a nobody like you for no reason, it is rare for anyone who has reached the Spirit Transformation level or above not to know about the Qingxuan Sacred Land.

As long as you do not offend others, no one will risk offending the Qingxuan Sacred Land to lay a hand on you.

Cultivation is not just about fighting and killing; cultivation also requires understanding social nuances.

Before setting out, you spent all your contribution points, purchasing a large amount of Cultivation resources and some Materials.

Afterward, you used these Materials to upgrade the Flowing Cloud Flying Boat, raising its grade from a Medium Grade Magic Treasure to a High Grade Magic Treasure.

That is right; although you have only recently advanced to the Purple Mansion, you are already capable of refining High Grade Magic Treasures. Not only that, but several other arts of cultivation have also reached a level close to the Golden Core stage.

In the process of upgrading its grade, you also improved the Flowing Cloud Flying Boat, significantly reducing its size. The current flying boat is at least a hundred times smaller than before.

Because large flying boats like the Flowing Cloud Flying Boat are essentially just for show or exist as transport ships; while precious, they are somewhat impractical for you.

The reduction in volume came at the cost of significantly improved performance in other aspects.

In terms of flight speed, it has reached over one hundred and fifty li in an instant. Although this cannot compare to your limit speed when performing the Five Elements Divine Light Escape, you cannot rely solely on flying yourself while traveling; naturally, you should choose the most comfortable method.

The efficiency of Spiritual Qi utilization has also greatly improved; now, maintaining flight at limit speed for one hour costs at most one hundred Medium Grade Spirit Stones.

After the preparations were complete, you traveled through the teleportation Formation on the Floating Island to the Azure Nether Sect's main teleportation platform.

This platform can teleport you to any island in the Star Cluster Prefecture that has an Azure Nether Sect branch.

The teleportation Formation activated, the scene before your eyes suddenly twisted, and when your vision cleared again, you were standing on the teleportation plaza of the Azure Nether Sect branch on Mingyue Island.

As the second largest island in the Star Cluster Prefecture, Mingyue Island is second only to the Heavenly Star Island managed by the Azure Nether Sect. Mingyue Island is rich in Spiritual Qi and enjoys spring-like weather all year round; in the distance, one can see rolling spirit mountains with clouds and mist swirling between them.

The most prominent forces on this island are the Azure Nether Sect branch and the Mingyue Sect.

The Azure Nether Sect branch is overseen by an Elder at the Nascent Soul Late Stage, and its building complex is built against the mountain with a magnificent Aura.

As the true master of Mingyue Island, the Mingyue Sect occupies Mingyue Peak in the center of the island. The Mingyue Sect also has a Spirit Transformation Divine Monarch overseeing it, possesses numerous Disciples, and is one of the most powerful local Spirit Transformation Sects in the Star Cluster Prefecture.

Afterward, you did not spend much time admiring the scenery of the branch, but took the teleportation Formation again to arrive at the largest immortal city established by the Mingyue Sect on Mingyue Island—Mingyue City.

Mingyue City is exceptionally large, its area even exceeding that of the island where the Azure Cloud Sect is located. The moment you stepped into Mingyue City, the rush of prosperity was dizzying.

This towering immortal city is like a brilliant pearl embedded on Mingyue Island; ancient runes are engraved on the walls that reach into the clouds, shimmering with mysterious radiance under the sunlight.

The streets were crowded with people, and various Cultivators moved among them: there were Sword Cultivators flying on swords, Beast Tamers riding Spirit Beasts, and merchants in magnificent clothing, all together composing a vivid scene of prosperity.

Strolling through the streets of Mingyue City, you discovered that the architectural styles here are diverse, ranging from traditional immortal pavilions with upturned eaves to exotic buildings with peculiar shapes.

The most eye-catching place in Mingyue City is none other than the resplendent Tingchao Pavilion. The seven-story pavilion rises from the ground, with exquisite wind chimes hanging from its eaves; whenever the sea breeze blows, it plays a tune of ethereal, heavenly music.

Tingchao Pavilion was opened by the Hehuan Sect. You are all too familiar with the name "Hehuan Sect." You believe that the Hehuan Sect must have supreme mighty figures behind it, as it is able to spread across the heavens and myriad worlds and is famous in every world.

As far as you know, the Hehuan Sect in the Profound Heaven Realm is overseen by a Dao Monarch of Hedao and is not some evil or demonic Sect, but a legitimate Sect of the Righteous Path, backed by the Yin and Yang Sacred Land, one of the ten great Holy Lands.

In the eyes of the Hehuan Sect members, the affairs between men and women are merely a way to Cultivate the Dao of Yin and Yang. The Dao of Yin and Yang is one of the fundamental Daos of heaven and earth, and they are also the orthodoxy of heaven and earth.

They view the interaction of Yin and Yang as the ultimate truth of heaven and earth, believing that "isolated Yin cannot grow, and solitary Yang cannot thrive." Through special Dual Cultivation methods, one can more intuitively perceive the mysteries of the mutual generation of Yin and Yang.

This philosophy even coincides with the views of certain reclusive mighty figures; it is said that even a Tribulation Transcendence Celestial Venerable has praised some of the Hehuan Sect's theories.

Since a Tribulation Transcendence Celestial Venerable personally certified it, it must be correct. Thus, you decided to personally try out the Hehuan Sect's philosophy.

Upon entering, you found that the interior of Tingchao Pavilion displayed the extraordinary atmosphere of the ancient Hehuan Sect everywhere.

In the main hall stood a screen carved from ten-thousand-year-old agarwood, depicting the mysterious patterns of the interaction of Yin and Yang. The night-luminescent pearls hanging on both sides of the corridor were actually fueled by the Yin and Yang Qi produced during Dual Cultivation, emitting a soft and mysterious light.

You chose an elegant room named "Cloud-Rain Pavilion." Pushing the door open and entering, you were greeted by a hot spring pool built of Spirit Jade; the pool water had a faint pink hue, and flower petals of Spirit Medicine were carefully scattered on the water's surface.

A young woman dressed in plain gauze was playing the zither by the pool. The sound of the zither was like a murmuring stream, interweaving with the incense in the room to create an atmosphere that made one's heart flutter.

The Dao of Yin and Yang is indeed profound, allowing you to contemplate it for a full three months. During these three months, with the help of the Hehuan Sect's unique Dual Cultivation secret techniques, you made a qualitative leap in your comprehension of the Dao of Yin and Yang. The daily harmonization of Yin and Yang gave you a deeper understanding of the ultimate truth that "isolated Yin cannot grow, and solitary Yang cannot thrive."
