Three months later.

Han Yi returned from the Blood Sea and came back to the Xanxue Peak. Controlling his sword, he hovered hundreds of feet above the ground looking below.

At this moment, he was hovering around the edge of Xanxue Peak; beneath him, Xanxue City sprawled.

However, the Xanxue City of today was different from its past.

A year ago when they first arrived, Xuanxue City was still called the Blood Sea City. The destruction borne by cultivators who'd evacuated before their arrival and the carnage brought about by the invading Demonic Beings, left this Immortal City in ruins.

But now, Xanxue City had expanded more than threefold in area. Tall lofts dotted the city, rising up from the ground, with cultivators continually coming and going.

Turning his gaze all around, he saw that from Xanxue City, along the edge of the Blood Sea, there were no less than eighteen Immortal Cities linked together. Although their scale could only be referred to as Immortal Towns at this point, all eighteen of them were similarly bustling and thriving, demonstrating prosperity that rivaled Xanxue City.

No matter whether it was Xanxue City or the surrounding eighteen Immortal Towns, they were all enveloped by a powerful formation. If one had the Eye of Mystery, they could even see that beneath each Immortal Town, their Spirit Vein was magnified enormously, as it circulated with endless energy.

Today, marked his last day of guarding the Blood Sea.

For the past half month, cultivators from the eighteen Immortal Towns had been organized to rush into the Blood Sea. This past month was merely a period of joint defense.

Next, every month, two to three Foundation Establishment elders from the Xuandan Sect would be stationed at the edge of the Blood Sea. Their main purpose was not to eliminate the Demonic Beings, but to supervise and serve as warning.

All other Foundation Establishment elders were free to travel between Xuandan Mountain's main sect and the Xanxue branch sect.

Han Yi was touched. Just a year had passed, yet the scene below had changed entirely.

As he looked up and surveyed the spectacle of the sect on Xanxue Peak, Han Yi was filled with mixed emotions.

At this moment, around the Xanxue Hall atop Xanxue Peak, dozens more palaces had been built.

Given enough time, this branch sect would possess strength not inferior to the main sect. As for the relationship between the main sect and the branch one, how they would be coordinated and arranged, had nothing to do with Han Yi.

He reigned in his thoughts. His Green Reed Sword underfoot swooshed and disappeared into the Xanxue Hall. He walked into one side hall. It was the Elder's Meeting Hall of Xanxue Peak.

“Younger Brother Han, there's an Immortal Boat returning to the main sect tomorrow. Will you go back or stay?”

Upon seeing Han Yi enter, Gu Yu asked again to confirm.

“Naturally, I will go back to the main sect.” Han Yi answered.

Gu Yu wasn't surprised: “I knew you would go back.”

“Li Senior Brother will be leading the team back to the main sect tomorrow. Outside Lianjia City, a Survive Disaster Immortal Ship will dock. Aside from you, seven Foundation Establishment elders and sixty-three inner sect disciples have applied to go back.”

Han Yi nodded; all his belongings were in the storage bag and he could leave at any moment.

The following day.

Han Yi departed from Xanxue Peak. He looked back one last time. Unless something unexpected occurred, it might be a long, long time until he returned. While this place was nice, it still didn't compare to the comfort of Azure Dragon Peak.

Bidding it silent farewell, Han Yi turned and flew downwards, heading for one of the eighteen Immortal Towns.

Lianjia City, true to its name, was an Immortal City leased by the Lian family. They were a family with Foundation Establishment cultivators. However, within this family, there were as many as seven cultivators in the Foundation Establishment stage. The family leader was at the peak of the Foundation Establishment stage.

When the Lian family leader learned about the division of the Spirit Vein under Xanxue Peak, he made a resolute decision. He abandoned their properties in Nanyang County and aimed to gain a Spirit Vein after its division.

The Spirit Vein beneath Lianjia City was a Third-stage Spirit Vein. For those at the peak of the Foundation Establishment stage, by cultivating at its core node, there was a significant chance of leveraging it to enter the Golden Core Stage.

This was why the Lian family leader had made such an absolute decision. As long as he advanced to the Golden Core Stage by means of it, the Lian family was bound to rise and ascend to a new class.

Han Yi had met this ambitious man once, and held a good impression of him.

In reality.

The eighteen towns under Xanxue Peak were all similar. Some had moved there as an entire family, some were formed by powerful loose cultivators gathering together, and some were joint ventures by several families. No doubt, all of them did so for the Spirit Vein.

The Spirit Vein was the foundation of a force.

At this moment.

An Immortal Ship was hovering in mid-air outside Lianjia city, already over a hundred people had boarded the ship.

Han Yi flew here and landed on the Immortal Ship, raising an eyebrow in surprise.

On the Immortal Ship, there were not only the Xuandan Sect's cultivators, but also outsiders.

“Senior Brother Li, who are these people…?”

Han Yi found Li Wenbin, who was in charge of this trip, and asked him.

Li Wenbin was a middle-aged cultivator with a rosy, healthy complexion and his eyes, though half-closed, were larger than most.

“Over there are the disciples of Master Boyi. Since we were headed in the same direction, we decided to go together. Moreover, they offered a considerable sum for the trip. We can all benefit since it's on our way.”

Li Wenbin spoke loudly, pointing to a group of cultivators. On seeing him, they all bowed respectfully. A sign of their deference.

Master Boyi, originally named Tian Boyi, was a Golden Core loose cultivator who also occupied one of the eighteen Immortal Cities. Centered around him, he had gathered a number of cultivators who followed him. Among them, there were six at the Foundation Establishment stage and even more at the Qi Cultivation stage, which made him a power to be reckoned with under Xanxue Peak – even stronger than the Lian family.

Han Yi withdrew his gaze and walked off to one side to sit cross-legged.

Since Li Wenbin had decided, it wasn't Han Yi's place to voice an opinion. Even if he had, given this elder brother's known volatile nature, it wouldn't have made a difference.

That being the case, he let it be. Besides, most of the outsiders on the Immortal Ship were at the Qi Cultivation Stage, and only one was in the early Foundation Establishment Stage. Even if something unexpected should happen, it would still be within a controllable range.

Other inner sect disciples from the Xuandan Sect, some acquainted with Han Yi, had initially wanted to greet him. But seeing him choose a quiet corner to sit and meditate, they wisely refrained from disturbing him..
