Lingxu, Sword Coffin, Blind Swordsman

The mission introduction still had content below, but everyone only saw this line.

Immediately after, Leng Yan spoke.

"The mission is simple, but also not simple, which is to prevent anyone from approaching within ten miles of the team."

"The coffin... who is inside, cannot be investigated, and nothing encountered along the way can be interfered with."

"The only task is to block any cultivators who may appear."

As soon as she finished speaking, the atmosphere in the arena became somewhat heavy.

Jiang Yuntao lowered his eyes, his face showing a look of contemplation.

"Among the three realms, there is a distinction between humans and immortals, but there is also a different path for immortals and ghosts!!"

"The Immortal Realm and the Yellow Springs Realm are originally two unrelated worlds, so why would something from the Yellow Springs Realm... want to return from the Immortal Realm?"

"This matter is too strange!"

Tang Lian frowned slightly, hugging her shoulders and said in a deep voice.

"There are many lonely souls and wild ghosts in the Immortal Realm, but those who have the ability to return to the Yellow Springs Realm... I've never even heard of it."

"Does the Sect Master and Peak Master know about this matter...?"

Leng Yan nodded slightly.

"It is said that the Sect Master personally accepted this mission."

"Moreover, the other party specifically named the Great Xia Sword Sect to accept this mission!"

For a time, everyone was silent, even when facing unknown powerful enemies, they could face them calmly.

But this kind of thing...

Li Guanqi was also silent.

He had cultivated for so many years, and had encountered very few ghosts.

But the ghosts he encountered in the past left a deep impression on him.

Back then, in the Great Xia Sword Sect, as his cultivation realm increased, it became difficult to encounter ghosts.

He wondered if it was because his own cultivation realm was strong and his Yang energy was sufficient, so ghosts avoided him.

Thinking of this, Li Guanqi couldn't help but ask.

"Senior Brother Ge, are there many ghosts and the like in the Immortal Realm?"

Everyone didn't react much to Li Guanqi's question, after all, Li Guanqi had only ascended for a little over a year.

It was normal to not understand the Immortal Realm.

Ge Nie pondered for a moment, sorted out his thoughts, and then spoke.

"That's right."

"Although I don't know what the Human Spirit Realm is like, the Immortal Qi in the Human Spirit Realm is thin, and the souls of people after death are easily dissipated."

"But in the Immortal Realm, below the level of Immortals... the souls of people after death will be forced to enter the cycle of reincarnation, which is the Yellow Springs Realm we speak of."

Li Guanqi nodded silently, below the level of Immortals, even Ascendant Realm cultivators are only Ascendant Realm cultivators.

Only when one truly becomes an Immortal, is baptized by the heavens and earth, and is recognized by the Heavenly Dao of the Immortal Realm, can one break through the shackles and become an Immortal of Heaven and Earth.

As for the Yellow Springs Realm, he had never clearly felt it.

But when he was performing sect missions in the Human Spirit Realm, he had also felt the aura of those souls entering reincarnation.

Ge Nie continued.

"The Immortal Realm is vast, connecting three thousand Lesser Chiliocosms below it, which are the Spirit Realms you speak of."

"This has also created the all-encompassing Immortal Realm."

"Humans, ghosts, demons, devils, spirits..."

"Roughly divided into five major branches, with human cultivators being the most numerous, so they occupy the dominant position."

"There are also many places in the ten lands of the Immortal Realm that gather demon clans and ghost cultivators."

"But usually these places are very exclusive, and almost no human cultivators enter."

Li Guanqi frowned, never expecting that the Immortal Realm would have five branches.

"Ghost cultivators..."

"Then what are demon cultivators?"

Leng Yan sneered.

"They are just people who feel they have fallen into the demonic path, no different from the evil cultivators of the past."

"It's just that these people have basically lost their most basic humanity, are inherently bloodthirsty, and feed on the blood and souls of cultivators. They must be killed upon encounter!"

Li Guanqi nodded slightly, it seemed that these so-called demon cultivators were even more vicious than evil cultivators.

This explanation also allowed Li Guanqi to understand the general situation of the entire Immortal Realm.

Ge Nie continued to speak.

"Generally speaking, ghosts are only divided into two types. One type is powerful cultivators whose physical bodies are destroyed and can only exist in the form of primordial spirit souls, and then switch to ghost cultivation!"

"The other type is cultivators who are seriously injured and die, and their souls are sent to the Yellow Springs Realm for reincarnation when their primordial spirits are destroyed."

Li Guanqi narrowed his eyes, and for a moment thought of many cultivators who had already died.

Had they... already entered reincarnation...?

Ge Nie paused slightly, sighed, and said in a deep voice.

"Until now, I have never heard of a ghost cultivator from the Yellow Springs Realm setting foot in the Immortal Realm."

"Nor have I ever heard of a ghost cultivator being able to directly enter the Yellow Springs Realm from the Immortal Realm!"

"So, this mission is very, very dangerous!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Ge Nie's gaze swept solemnly in all directions, and he said in a deep voice.

"Let's talk about it, what are everyone's opinions, should we accept it?"

"The reward offered by the other party is three Nine Heavens Leaves! Its effect can protect a cultivator's divine soul when it suffers a fatal attack!"

"In addition, there are a hundred bottles of elixirs and ten thousand three-grade immortal crystals!"

Everyone gasped!

"Ten thousand three-grade immortal crystals?! Converted into one-grade immortal crystals, that's a full ten billion?"

Even Tao Manman and Zheng Qian's expressions changed slightly.

This amount was an astronomical figure for them.

It could be said that as long as this mission was successfully completed, their cultivation resources would not need to be worried about for at least a hundred years.

Li Guanqi was also shocked.

He knew that his calculations for the resources of the six cities of the Emperor's Rest Bay were only two billion!

This was still the accumulation of six cities over thousands of years.

But the other party was so generous.

Li Guanqi narrowed his eyes...

"This price... is more than enough to hire a Golden Immortal Realm cultivator."

"Even to hire some top experts with True Immortal Realm cultivation."

Tang Lian nodded slightly, pulled the black scarf around her neck, covering half of her face.

But those beautiful eyes had a look of seriousness.

"Junior Brother Li is right, this price can completely hire cultivators with higher cultivation!"

"Why does the other party insist on sect disciples taking over?"

Chen Heng, who had not spoken, tapped his fingers lightly on the table and said.

"Perhaps..."

"The strength of the Great Xia Sword Sect's disciples is the limit of the variables that 'they' can withstand!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone's gazes gathered on Chen Heng.

Li Guanqi raised his eyebrows, this idea was similar to what he thought.

Perhaps only True Immortal Realm level three or below was the limit that the other party could control.

Once it exceeded this limit, the other party would be handing over their lives to the Great Xia Sword Sect's cultivators to control.

If anything unexpected happened, or if greed took over... the consequences would not be something the other party could control.

Moreover, the higher the cultivation realm of the escorting person, the higher the possibility of exposure!

Chen Heng explained his analysis, which was almost the same as what Li Guanqi thought.

Everyone nodded slightly upon hearing this, very much agreeing with what Chen Heng said.

Leng Yan's gaze swept sharply across everyone's faces, and she said in a deep voice.

"There are only half a months left until the mission deadline, if we don't accept it, I will immediately contact the Peak Master."

Everyone didn't speak, but their eyes said everything.
