Chapter 481: Chapter 247: Ancient Corpse Conjecture, Returning to Profound Pill_3
Upon hearing this, Han Yi’s heart felt a slight chill – one of the two Monarchs had already died before his eyes.
“As for more detailed information, the outside world is mostly speculating and there is no concrete evidence.”
“For example, why did the National Guardian Duke secretly establish the Fragrance Sect and even cause the Devil’s Cave to descend on Shu Du? Why did the Daqin Emperor interfere? And what was the conspiracy of the Daqian Emperor in all this? These matters involve layers that are too high; we dare not even guess.”
Han Yi nodded his head. Zhuge Wu You’s speculation, combined with his own experience at the core of Devil’s Cave and later escaping Shu Du, witnessing the Heavenly Fall catastrophe and the arrival of the Human Emperor Sword, should not be far from the truth.
He suddenly thought of something and then asked,
“Brother, how is the situation in Shu Du that was shattered by the Heavenly Fall?”
On this journey back to the sect, Han Yi had gone straight to the sect and had not passed through Shu Du. Moreover, he had not seen any other collapsing Immortal Cities along the way, so he naturally did not know about the current situation in Shu Du.
“Daqian has already started to rebuild Shu Du. The reconstruction of this giant Immortal City, which has gone through several Immortal Countries, will take too long. The rearrangement of the Spirit Veins beneath the Immortal City will take at least several decades. This is not something that can be done overnight.”
“As for you, Han, what have you been up to for the past two months that made me so worried?”
Zhuge Wu You looked at Han Yi and asked. Han Yi did not go into detail, only saying that after he escaped from Shu Du, he headed south in a panic and happened to encounter some matters that delayed him for more than a month before he could return.
Since Han Yi was unwilling to say more, the rest of them did not press further.
“Next, if Junior Brother Han has no other matters, you can stay in the sect. I, this old man, can finally stop worrying about you all the time.”
Zhuge Wu You said with a smile. His words were, of course, half-joking. Han Yi knew that ever since Qin Wuxian’s death, Zhuge Wu You had indeed been concerned.
First, Yuan Shun disappeared, then Qin Wuxian died. If someone discovered their weakness and a few Late-stage Golden Core or one or two Golden Core Peak cultivators came, Xuandan Sect would be in danger.
Next, the group analyzed the current situation of Xuandan Sect and discussed their future policies with Han Yi.
However,
For Han Yi, he was not good at managing the sect and did not interfere much.
Professional matters should be handled by professionals – this has always been his principle.
A moment later, after the discussion was over, Han Yi suddenly thought of something. With a flip of his hand, he took out a Qiankun Ring and said to Shen Ping, who was sitting to the side,
“Brother Shen, during my time away, I have obtained some war spoils. These spoils are not very useful to me, and I don’t have any disciples in the sect, so I’ll give them to you to allocate for the sect.”
Han Yi handed the Qiankun Ring to Shen Ping. This ring contained things that he had acquired over the years from cultivators he had killed, both actively and passively.
These included some low-level Immortal Boats, spiritual tools, storage bags, etc. Especially in Qingzhou, when he killed over a hundred cultivators from Killing Mountain, he had confiscated twelve Immortal Boats and hundreds of storage equipment. Each piece of equipment stored all the cultivator’s savings. Among them, there were even several Golden Core cultivators, including a Late-stage Golden Core cultivator’s Qiankun Ring.
Of course, he kept the Spirit Stones, Third-stage Spiritual Talismans, and Formations that were useful for him.
Even so, the remaining items were enough to establish a small Golden Core Sect.
Shen Ping scanned it with his divine sense and his eyelids twitched.
There were indeed a lot of items inside. He looked at Han Yi with a meaningful expression and said,
“Junior Brother, it seems you have killed quite a few unfortunate cultivators.”
Han Yi smiled, “Some people just don’t know better and are dead set on seeking death, so I can only fulfill their wish.”

“But don’t worry, Brother, I am not a wanton killer. Those people were all deserving of death.”
Shen Ping nodded, not saying anything more, and took the Qiankun Ring.
In the current sect, with Zhuge Wu You acting as the Sect Master and mainly controlling the sect’s policies and direction, Si Hongxue assisting, Lian Tingxi focusing on cultivation eighty percent of the time, only Shen Ping was more hands-on in the sect’s management and interacted more with Foundation Establishment Elders. The Qiankun Ring was most suitable to be given to him.
Suddenly remembering something, Lian Tingxi, who was sitting on the other side, looked at Zhuge Wu You and Han Yi, and said solemnly,
“Right, there’s something we need to prepare for in advance. In ten years, it will be time for the sect ranking evaluation. If the sect leader still hasn’t returned by then, we need to have a contingency plan.”
Han Yi was slightly startled, “Sect level identification?”
Hearing Lian Tingxi’s words, Shen Ping also remembered this matter, frowned, and explained:
“Yes, I almost forgot about this matter.”
“The sect identification is for all the sects within the Daqian region, except for the Holy Land and the three major sects, which include the eight major Nascent Soul sects.”
“In Daqian’s records, our Xuandan Sect is still just a Golden Core sect. However, once the sect leader breaks through, normally, he just needs to make a visit to the Daqian Immortal Country and make a simple registration to confirm the rank and establish the fact that the sect has become a Nascent Soul Great Sect.”
“But now that the sect leader has disappeared, this matter has become difficult.” fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm
Zhuge Wu You also showed a difficult expression, thinking in his eyes.
“For now, let’s just take note of this matter. There are still ten years to go. If the sect leader really doesn’t return within ten years, we will have to claim that the sect leader has recently left the sect. By then, whether I go or Han Junior Brother goes, there will be no problem.”
“Even if Daqian only recognizes us as a Golden Core sect, it doesn’t matter.”
A thought flashed in Han Yi’s mind. The sect level identification would take place ten years later, so he could show his face once outside after seven years, for example, in Qingzhou of Dayong, or the Immortal City of Yu State in Daqian.
Then Han Yi could use the excuse of Yuan Shun leaving the sect and going to Dayong or Daqin to register the sect level. This was not a risky move. Even if Daqian did not agree, the most they could do would be to reject the application. However, Yuan Shun’s appearance could also dispel the probing of some people.
However,
This kind of thing could be done once or twice, but not three times. After the previous experience in Shu Du, Han Yi would plan another one seven or eight years later, but he could not use it again. If it was used more than three times, it would expose his intentions and would definitely be noticed by others.
Han Yi shared his ideas, and everyone agreed. They had all seen Han Yi’s Disguise Technique with their own eyes and had checked it. If it were not for a real monarch in person, it would be basically impossible to detect Han Yi’s disguised aura.
After discussing for a while, they left separately.
Han Yi returned to Vermilion Bird Peak, to the supreme tower that belonged to him alone. He sat down cross-legged and reviewed his experiences on this trip.
Only seven years of peace had passed since the sect’s relocation when several major events happened one after another in the past two years. Han Yi had participated in all of these matters. He briefly summarized the keywords.
Huo Ming’s disappearance, reappearance in Daqin, the Yu family, Supreme Pavilion, Zhang Family, Ku Mu Monarch, Bao Zhe Sheng, Guanxuan Academy, Qin Wuxian’s death, Shu Du investigation, Fragrance Sect, Star River Monarch, demonic lair outbreak, National Guardian Duke, Daqian Emperor, Daqin Emperor, numerous real monarchs, being captured, Dayong Qingzhou, returning to the sect.
In terms of strength,
In less than two years, he had broken through to the Middle Golden Core Stage, and his Ninefold Soul Tower and Sword Control Skill had both advanced to “Breaking through the mortal and entering the holy.” Refining his Soul Skill, his strength had surged, giving him the ability to fight against Golden Core Peak.
However,
When facing the cultivators ranked in the top ten of the Master List, although he hadn’t put it to the test, Han Yi assessed that he still fell short.
The criteria for being recognized in the top ten of the Master List are being able to at least defend one’s life in front of a real monarch, or even further, to slay a real monarch.
For him at present, neither of these two criteria could be met.
Additionally,
As his strength increased, Han Yi desperately needed a stronger mid-level sword tool.
Naturally, Han Yi’s most accustomed sword was the Green Reed Sword. However, the Green Reed Sword was a low-grade sword tool and was no longer enough for him. In the short term, he would not be able to find another Green Reed Sword to fuse, not to mention that he was uncertain if a third Green Reed Sword even existed.
The Traceless Sword, Heavenly Cold Sword, and Illusory Fire Cauldron were all destroyed in the demonic lair. Now, the only mid-grade sword tool he had was an enormous Giant Tower Sword, which was not suitable for him.
So, he planned to get another mid-level sword tool from the sect, and this time, he naturally wouldn’t go to buy it himself, but instead, he would directly ask Zhuge Wu You to see if the sect had a middle-grade sword tool that suited him.
Lastly,
Apart from the middle-grade sword tool, there was another urgent issue to resolve.
That was the ancient corpse in his Qiankun Ring, which seemed to have swallowed the Star River Monarch’s Nascent Soul.
This was a real big trouble..
