Zhang Jiadi cleared his throat and began to explain in detail to Luo Chen.
The task for the Ten Thousand Immortals Gathering Star Ranked Demon Hunter examination has only been perfected in the last few decades.
Initially, there were no specific examination tasks; simply registering made one a One-star Demon Hunter.
However, it was later discovered that so Rogue Cultivators, after registering, would not strive for progress and would use their status as One-star Demon Hunters to dodge the warti conscription of the Three Oceans Defensive Line, while also taking advantage of the Ten Thousand Immortals Gathering. Since then, the Demon Hunter Bureau under the Ten Thousand Immortals Gathering began to gradually add rules, fixing the loopholes in the regulations.
"Actually, Ascendant Master doesn’t need to worry, the tasks for One-star examination are usually not that difficult."
"Either escorting shipnts over short distances or killing so Second Order Demon Beasts is enough to pass."
"In the past, there were even people who paid with Spirit Stones to have soone else complete the task for them, but only recently was a Supervisor Officer appointed to accompany and audit the task process."
"With Ascendant Master’s ability, such a trivial One-star task should be a piece of cake!"
After listening, Luo Chen also breathed a sigh of relief.
If it’s just about killing so Lower Order Demon Beasts, he is well-practiced and has no need for concern.
Upon returning to the small courtyard where just he and Zhang Jiadi were present, Tian Xuan and Wen Xiu were nowhere to be seen.
Luo Chen was not puzzled.
This morning, before heading out, Tian Xuan ntioned she would have Wen Xiu show her around Longyuan City to familiarize herself with the surroundings.
In the future, this would also facilitate serving Luo Chen.
With no one else around, the two n found their private company sowhat awkward.
Luo Chen suddenly asked: "How many months along?"
Zhang Jiadi was briefly stunned, and then with a touch of warmth in his smile, he said: "Already five months, but she’s not showing yet."
"And what are your plans for the future? You must have thought about it!"
Zhang Jiadi’s warmth faded slightly, and his tone beca sowhat deeper as he said: "I have thought about it. I’m from a Rogue Cultivator background, but Ah Xiu is from an Immortal Cultivation Clan. She understands more. In this day and age, if we want to protect a child to safely grow up, relying just on us as a couple is not enough unless we watch over day and night; eventually, there will be troubles."
"According to her idea, we should establish an Immortal Cultivation Clan, recruit so Lower Order Cultivators as vassals, and have the clan safeguard our child."
"My talent is not that great, and I’m getting on in years; there’s no chance for to advance to the Golden Core Period in this lifeti. Therefore, regarding the star rank of a Demon Hunter, there isn’t much difference between Three Stars and Two Stars unless you reach Four Stars."
"That’s why I chose to give up on advancing in star rank and have most of the gains from demon hunting secretly exchanged for more Spirit Stones."
"These Spirit Stones are the capital for future clan establishnt."
Having said that, he cautiously looked at Luo Chen.
"Ascendant Master, I hope you can keep this matter confidential for ."
Should it be exposed that he has been dealing with his demon hunting gains privately, he would surely be severely punished by the Demon Hunter Bureau, and he might even lose his life in the process.
He doesn’t want any trouble because he has an unborn child.
Previously, this matter was an unspoken understanding between him and Luo Chen.
But after getting to know each other better over ti, he laid it all out openly, seeking a certain response to ease his daily anxiety.
In his anticipation.
Luo Chen smiled slightly, "Your affair has nothing to do with , and I will not gossip."
Then, changing the subject, he inquired about so details ntioned earlier in the conversation.
"Why is there such a big difference between a Four-Star Demon Hunter and the earlier Three Stars? Isn’t it just a difference in resource exchange discounts?"
"Discounts are only part of it." Zhang Jiadi, having received Luo Chen’s promise, clearly relaxed and pointed towards the Hidden Dragon Mountain Range, "In fact, the grade of the Cave Mansions over there is also linked to the star level. Only Four-Star Demon Hunters can rent Cave Mansions of Weak 3rd Order or higher. Although unpromulgated, this rule has always been underlying."
"How so?"
"The Ten Thousand Immortals Gathering, after all, is a power structure of Strong Preying on the Weak among the Rogue Cultivator Group. The internal struggles are not less than in the Outer World. Ascendant Master, with your cultivation reaching the Golden Core Realm, must be quite clear how much a dungeon dwelling’s quality can boost one’s cultivation. Especially for us Foundation Establishnt Cultivators, to transition smoother into Core Formation once reaching the Ninth Level Foundation Establishnt, it’s best to first adapt to the Spirit Qi environnt in the Weak 3rd Order Spirit Land. But such coveted Weak 3rd Order Spirit Lands, with thousands of Foundation Establishnt True Cultivators eying them, you’re bound to face an endless stream of envious and challenging enemies, going as far as to usurp it."
Luo Chen frowned, "Does the Ten Thousand Immortals Gathering not intervene?"
Zhang Jiadi spread his hands, "They just rent it to us; what happens after is not their concern. Perhaps Golden Core Ascendant Masters maintain their pride and do not covet Weak 3rd Order Spirit Lands, but other Cultivators at the Ninth Level Foundation Establishnt, even those at Perfection, will not care much for such propriety. In this case, being a Four-Star Demon Hunter is not only a symbol of one’s status but also a demonstration of power. Only like this can one deter endless potential foes from coveting."
After hearing this, Luo Chen nodded silently to himself.
Being able to achieve a Demon Hunter Star Rank that only Golden Core Cultivators can reach while still in the Foundation Establishnt Realm, such forces are indeed powerful!
Aiming for the Cave Mansion of such a person is akin to seeking death.
"What about then?"
Luo Chen suddenly asked.
"If I, as a One-star Demon Hunter, rent a Third-tier top-grade Cave Mansion, what will happen?"
Zhang Jiadi was taken aback, a little slow on the uptake.
He looked cautiously at Luo Chen, "I’m not sure about the specific realm of the Ascendant Master?"
Luo Chen smiled slightly, "Middle Stage Golden Core."
