I Can Accumulate Proficiency, Starting from Alchemy

“After Yuan Shun obtained the half-immortal’s remains and arrived at the Xuandan Sect, several True Monarchs with hidden auras prepared to snatch them away, but they perished in an instant without even sending out a trace of their Divine Soul.”

“It was the sect leader who told me about this.”

“However, Yuan Shun’s breakthrough to True Monarch, and even his ability to seriously injure Liu Su Monarch with a single strike, has resolved the hidden dangers of the half-immortal’s remains.”

“I have been to your sect’s original location, which has already turned into a corpse domain. It should be that Yuan Shun completely expelled the corpse qi from the half-immortal’s remains and truly absorbed the Immortal Affinity.”

“His combat power far exceeds that of an ordinary True Monarch.”

“Others’ Immortal Affinities are truly enviable.”

“A hundred years ago, I entered Two Realms Mountain with him. A hundred years later, Yuan Shun became a True Monarch, while I still lingered in the last step, wasting years.”

Li Dongli sighed, turned around, and continued to walk forward.

Behind him, Han Yi shivered all over.

He heard this story for the first time, and from the past situation of his sect, aside from Yuan Shun, the others should not know about it.

His current participation in the Tai Xu seeking immortality was to find traces of Yuan Shun. He did not expect to find out such a big secret on the first day.

Li Dongli did not know that Yuan Shun had not returned to the sect nor his situation. He only guessed that Yuan Shun had solved the hidden dangers of the half-immortal’s remains and absorbed the Immortal Affinity based on his presence in the Xuandan Sect and the corpse domain at the original location of Xuandan Sect.

However,

Han Yi knew his own situation well. Yuan Shun had not returned to the sect and was still missing. Combined with the corpse domain at the original Xuandan Sect’s location, it was not difficult to infer that there were problems with Yuan Shun after he absorbed the Immortal Affinity.

Besides,

Li Dongli also mentioned that several True Monarchs had quietly died when they came to the Xuandan Sect to snatch Yuan Shun’s Immortal Affinity.

Hearing this point, Han Yi finally understood and got an answer to a previous question.

When he was still in the Qi Condensing and Foundation Building stage, he wondered why his sect and the Wanfa Sect, and the Southern Dipper Divine Palace had conflicts but were unharmed. Why was Master Blood River, who had sworn brotherhood with Jiang Jiuge, suddenly turned into a coward after the Xuandan Sect wiped out the Blood God Sect? Why did Yuan Shun not take any action even after Liu Su Monarch was seriously injured by a single strike? And, why the Southern Dipper Divine Palace did not continue to pursue Xuandan Sect after the incident?

All of this was due to the half-immortal’s remains and the misjudgment of Yuan Shun’s strength status by the outside world.

This is what Yuan Shun wanted to see.

Yuan Shun obviously thought of this too. He brazenly shot, killing Jiang Jiuge and heavily injuring Liu Su Monarch in order to establish his reputation, so that his powerful side would be known to the Cultivation World, and shelter the Xuandan Sect for a while since he had to leave due to his abnormal state.

Having received answers to his previous questions, Han Yi deduced the truth based on the information he knew. As for the more detailed truth, he could only find out by locating Yuan Shun.

However,

Learning about Yuan Shun’s situation from Li Dongli’s mouth, Han Yi had practically achieved his goal for this journey.

Li Dongli in front of him had no idea that his dozen or so words had set off a storm in Han Yi’s heart, shaking him to his core.

He thought that Han Yi’s shock was caused by the excitement of seeking immortality in the upcoming journey.

So after mentioning Yuan Shun’s Immortal Affinity, he solemnly warned him.

“However, this Fragmented Immortal World is extremely dangerous. Not only are there half-immortal remains like those obtained by Yuan Shun, but there are also half-immortal remnants, Immortal Souls, Immortal Artifacts, and even real Immortal Corpses.”

“A hundred years ago, out of the forty-nine people who entered, only twenty-three returned safely. The others either died within or got lost and couldn’t make it back.”

“So, Daoist Han, remember, don’t lose sight of your goals because of Immortal Affinities.”

After instructing him, Li Dongli continued to explain.

“According to the records, after being teleported into the Fragmented Immortal World through Two Realms Mountain, cultivators would not be too dispersed and would fall within a mostly similar area of several hundred thousand kilometers.”

“Moreover, the area is not always the same every time, but it should all be in the same Fragmented Immortal World.”

“It is speculated that this is because each time Two Realms Mountain passes through the Beidou Region, the place where the cultivators are transmitted from Holy Void Valley is in a different area of Two Realms Mountain, so the Fragmented Immortal World they reach is also in a different area.”

“Also,”

“Once arriving in the Fragmented Immortal World, you must not lose the Two Realms Jade that you hold in your hand. If you lose it, you will never be able to come back.”

“When the time comes, Two Realms Mountain will take you back from the Fragmented Immortal World to Two Realms Mountain and then to Holy Void Valley.”

“At this point, the Tai Xu seeking immortality will come to an end.”

“Daoist Han, are there any questions?”

Han Yi nodded; indeed, he had several doubts in his mind.

“My first question is: why has your sect given away its quota? Such an Immortal Affinity should be cherished by the Tai Xu Sect alone. Why share it with the entire Yu Heng World?”

Upon hearing this, Li Dongli laughed and showed a helpless expression.

“I have the same question, but this has been a rule that has been followed for tens of thousands of years.”

“When you return from Two Realms Mountain, the Two Realms Jade will dissipate. The next time the Two Realms Jade is born in Holy Void Valley, you will have to wait for more than ninety years..”
