What Chen Yu jin referred to as renting Cave Heaven was not quite like that.

More precisely, it was Xuandan Sect purchasing places for cultivation in the Cave Heaven of Yujing Mountain.

Although the announcement did not mention the price paid, it was definitely far beyond the ordinary imagination.

It was because there were only 100 spots.

You should know that there are not only a hundred disciples from the Xuandan Sect at the ninth layer of Qi Cultivation – why not buy more?

The reason must surely be that such a purchase is considered a burden even for the Xuandan Sect.

The announcement also noted the name of the Cave Heaven purchased: Facing Reality Heavenly Realm.

Moreover, there was only one year for these 100 disciples in the Cave Heaven, and after that, they would return to the sect.

“Forget it; since my name isn’t confirmed, it seems I have no chance.”

Although Han Yi was tempted, at this point, he couldn’t think of any good way to fight for a spot, unless he showed off his skills in the Inner Peak by challenging a powerful Ninth Level Qi Cultivation and got noticed by the sect’s higher-ups.

He certainly wouldn’t choose such a high-profile approach. At this stage, his strategy was to stay low-key as much as possible, only revealing a certain amount of strength if necessary, but never showing all his cards.

One must always keep a trick up their sleeve, especially in the Cultivation World.

When Han Yi was about to leave the peak, he encountered an acquaintance, Luo Yunzhou.

Luo Yunzhou’s eyes lit up upon seeing Han Yi.

“Junior Brother Han, it’s a rare encounter. Let me buy you a drink as my thank you for saving my life.”

“I’m going all out today. Drunken Immortal Tower, first floor of the Inner Peak. Let’s go.”

Han Yi thought for a moment and didn’t refuse.

Luo Yunzhou was clearly trying to build a relationship. Having more connections in the Inner Peak would make it easier to gather information in the future.

Moreover, Luo Yunzhou was a disciple of the Azure Dragon Peak, the first Inner Peak, which should be the first to receive information.

Also, Han Yi had been longing to see the elegance of the first floor in the Inner Peak.

In Xuandan Sect, there is one pavilion and one floor most sought after by disciples.

One pavilion is the first Inner Peak, Ascending Immortal Pavilion.

One floor, the first Outer Peak, Drunken Immortal Tower.

He and Zheng Hai had been to the Drunken Immortal Tower a while ago, but he hadn’t had the chance to experience the Ascending Immortal Pavilion. It would be nice to take this opportunity to see it.

Seeing Han Yi nod, Luo Yunzhou felt a surge of joy in his heart.

This junior brother was still inexperienced for now, but he would definitely be a top-tier force in the future. Sticking close to him would offer high returns later on.

No matter which world it is, personal relationships matter.

The Ascending Immortal Pavilion was located on the first Inner Peak, Azure Dragon Peak.

Azure Dragon Peak was the largest Inner Peak, the most majestic in terms of mountains and unmatched in terms of overall strength, resource allocation, and even Spirit Veins.

As Han Yi followed Luo Yunzhou into the Ascending Immortal Pavilion, he felt an overwhelming aura of spiritual energy.

Within the Ascending Immortal Pavilion, countless treasures and spiritual items decorated the interior. Even the entire Ascending Immortal Pavilion was built on top of the Fourth-stage Spirit Vein secondary node. The density of Spirit Energy was only second to the Main Xuandan Peak in the sect, and even stronger than any cultivation room Han Yi had been to in the Outer Peak.

Luo Yunzhou didn’t reserve a private room. Not only was it expensive, but it also required a certain status – only Foundation Establishment stage or even Golden Core stage could book one.

Instead, he found a table by the window to sit down in the main hall.

Ordering dishes and choosing wine, Han Yi, being observant, noticed Luo Yunzhou wasn’t familiar with the menu. It seemed this might be his first time hosting guests at the Ascending Immortal Pavilion, which showed his intentions.

After a satisfying meal and a fill of spiritual energy from the wine, Han Yi felt contented.

The cost of this meal definitely far exceeded that of their previous one at the Drunken Immortal Tower. Han Yi didn’t ask the price, but later, when Luo Yunzhou paid, he heard the sum of 300 Spirit Stones and saw Luo Yunzhou’s pained expression, confirming that it was an extravagant meal.

After enjoying the diverse flavors of the dishes and the aged wine, Luo Yunzhou whispered:

“Junior Brother Han, you must have heard about the Cave Heaven trial.”

“I’m telling you, it’s such a pity that according to my standards, Junior Brother Han, you definitely qualify.”

“I was planning to find you and discuss this, to see if I should recommend you to my master and try to get you into the list.”

“But before I could do anything, the trial list has already been published.”

Luo Yunzhou showed a regretful expression, and then his face turned serious.

“But rest assured, Junior Brother Han, I promised you that I would never reveal your true strength without your permission.”

“As for this matter, I, Luo, always keep my word.”

Luo Yunzhou declared firmly.

Han Yi nodded and smiled.

This senior brother was really helpful.

“Thank you for your concern, Senior Brother Luo. But since the sect has already decided on the list, there’s no need to say more.” Han Yi bowed his hands in thanks.

Respect is mutual, and he wouldn’t feel superior just because the other person lowered their stance.

“However, don’t worry, Junior Brother Han, I heard that there won’t be only one Cave Heaven trial. If it goes well, they will be held regularly in the future.”

“The determination of the sect this time is immense. I even heard that the sect leader activated the secret treasury of the sect – it’s definitely a huge investment.”

“And, 1 heard that after the 100 trial disciples return from the Cave Heaven in a year, there will be a competition between the Inner and Outer Peak disciples. At that time, Junior Brother Han, you’ll surely stand out among them. There would be no worry about not being selected for the next Cave Heaven trial.”

Han Yi pondered for a moment: “A competition between Inner and Outer Peak disciples?”

“Yes, this time the battle with the Blood God Sect – no, not just the Blood God Sect, but the entire war between immortals and demons – exposed the weakness of Xuandan Sect’s combat strength, and everyone in the sect knows it.”

“The higher-ups of the sect aren’t fools, they have more information than we do, and they must have a clearer vision.”

Luo Yunzhou’s face showed a complex expression for a moment, but in the next instant, the confidence returned.

“By the way, there’s one last thing.”

“Junior Brother Han, when you break through to the Seventh Level of Qi Cultivation, be sure to find me. I will introduce you to Azure Dragon Peak.”

“Azure Dragon Peak is the first Inner Peak, with the most resources of any peak. Just having the presence of two Supreme Elders, who reside in the peak and guide the disciples there – you won’t find such treatment anywhere else.”

Han Yi’s heart stirred, and after some thought, he didn’t respond right away. His original plan was to go to Dan Sword Peak.

“I’ll have to think about it.”

A moment later, Han Yi descended Azure Dragon Peak and returned to Little Lingxu Peak.

He sat in his cultivation room, facing the seemingly ordinary Sword Immortal Picture, closed his eyes, emptied his mind, and opened them again.

“The road to cultivation is endless and there will be no end.”

“The key to victory is patience.”

“Well, whether it’s the Cave Heaven trials or the competition between the Inner and Outer Peaks, they are only external factors and cannot disturb my state of mind.”

“I shall observe from the sidelines and seek immortality.”

Han Yi began his retreat.

This time, he planned that without any interruptions, he would cultivate until he reached the Seventh Level of Qi Cultivation..
