"In the Lone Hell Pocket Realm, another shocking Chosen has risen. Her na is second only to yours, Uncle Bai. She hails from the Blood Flow Sect, wearing a mask adorned with plum blossoms. She completely crushed everyone else in the Holy Land, and after countless masters, beca the second person in the Blood Flow Sect to reach the pinnacle established by the Earthstring Foundation, nine Tideflows! She slaughtered countless other disciples. It was sheer brutal. They call her Devilwitch Xue i! [1. You might rember, Song Que from the Blood Sect ntioned Xue i in Chapter 161. This na literally ans 'Blood Plum']"
"Now, I recall, it seems so very strange things happened in the Holy Land of the Foundation establishnt. Black horses everywhere! Though, you are clearly the most shocking dark horse, Bai Sect, the strongest among them. You reached the Heavenly Dao Foundation!
"This ti, the Spirit Stream Sect truly achieved glory!
"Oh, by the way, before Ghostfang went into secluded ditation, he chose his inheritance in the ancestor Darktunnel, and twenty traditional axes were illuminated! The entire sect was stirred into a great uproar!" Thanks to Xu Baocai's detailed information, Yan Xiaobao gradually understood everything that happened in the Lonely Hell Pocket Kingdom and the Arcane Spirit Void.
Although no event in the other two holy lands was as brutal as in the Fallen Sword World, still many deaths and casualties occurred.
Besides information on other sects, Xu Baocai also told him about the other Spirit Stream Sect disciples in the other two holy lands. Zhou Xinqi, Lu Tianlei, Gongsun Yun, Xu Song, and several other disciples reached the Earth Foundation. However, none of them surpassed six Tideflows. Upon returning, they were all assigned different positions within the sect, then entered secluded ditation, striving for inheritance echelon.
According to Xu Baocai, both Ghostfang and Shangguan Tianyou also chose to enter secluded ditation. Moreover, Beihan Lie beca more famous and important within the sect. As for Hou Yunfei, he was taken as an apprentice by a major elder.
Everyone gained their own good fortune. As for those disciples from the Northern and Southern Banks, aided by Yan Xiaobao to reach the Earth Foundation, none were taken as apprentices by elders. However, all were promoted, becoming elders managing sect affairs.
The number of Spirit Stream Sect mbers reaching the Earth Foundation far exceeded those of other sects, giving them more power and influence at their cultivation stage.
As for Bai Xiaochun, since he already reached the Heavenly Dao Foundation, he was appointed as a Legacy Echelon-customate.
However, he didn't gain much from it. He truly struggled to pull himself out of depression. Ti flew by. Half a month later, Sect Leader Zheng Yuandong walked into Yan Xiaobao's secluded Immortal Cave and sat in front of him.
"Xiao Chun, while you were in the Fallen Sword Abyss, the Founder Clan Leader issued a Dharma Decree. Xiangyun Peak is infiltrated by spies!" Zheng Yuandong's words sent shivers through Yan Xiaobao. The fact is Yan Xiaobao was no fool; his thoughts were swift and sharp. Over the past half month, he reflected heavily on the recent events surrounding Du Lingfei's era. Although outwardly there was nothing unusual about her, how could Yan Xiaobao not notice the mixed emotions in her eyes?
He also recalled that on the night she disappeared, she was the one who suggested resting, and then he slept through the night.
All of this told him that Du Lingfei most likely left of her own will.
As for the reason she left, he felt there were so secret reasons behind it. Ultimately, he didn't want to consider it too much; he had already guessed what happened.
Zheng Yuandong did not elaborate on this spy. Yan Xiaobao needed to ntion so things. Talking too much about them might not be a good thing.
He was quite sure Yan Xiaobao understood the implications behind it.
After a long silence, Zheng Yuandong changed the subject, inadvertently touching on a sensitive topic for Yan Xiaobao due to recent events.
"Yan Xiaobao, do you know why the Luochen Clan turned into traitors?!
Due to what happened with Du Lingfei and Yan Xiaobao unwilling to contemplate it, the Luochen Family's events beca sowhat blurred. However, after hearing Zheng Yuandong's words, he lifted his head. Although he now didn't want to think about Du Lingfei, the fatal event with the Luochen Family was sothing he couldn't forget.
Subconsciously, he reached out to rub the place on his arm where the jagged edge of the broken arm bone had once protruded from the flesh. The wound had long healed, but whenever he touched that spot, he rembered how he stabbed Mrs. Chen Heng with his own broken bone.
Initially, it seed the Luochen Clan turned into traitors because they wanted to escape the control of the Spirit Stream Sect. For this purpose, they even went to the extent of killing mortals to reverse the flow of their own blood. But the events that occurred had multiple layers. Without deeper motives driving them, they would never have done such a thing. After all, although the eastern downstream region is a vast place, in so respects, it is a very small world.
After betraying the Spirit Stream Sect, even if they successfully reversed their bloodline, the Luochen Clan would struggle to survive.
Yan Xiaobao used to think about this issue, but the sect actively suppressed information about the events, essentially spreading news under the carpet.
However, Yan Xiaobao is an Observer and took notice of the frequency with which the sect dispatched Foundation establishnt personnel outside. Clearly, bigger events are happening. Considering his previous speculation, Zheng Yuandong bringing up this matter is now sowhat startling. [1. Chapter 64 hints that the sect is suppressing information about the Luochen Clan event. Activities of Foundation establishnt personnel have also been touched upon]
"You are now a cultivator of the Heavenly Dao Foundation, and a designated mber of the inheritance echelon. You are the pride and joy of this sect, henceforth, you are qualified to learn certain secrets unknown to ordinary disciples. I have four significant questions for you." Zheng Yuandong's solemn expression instantly intensified the atmosphere within the Immortal Cave.
"First, are you aware of the nature of the world we live in?" As he spoke these words, Zheng Yuandong's gaze seed fixed on sothing distant, even his voice quivered slightly.
Yan Xiaobao shivered. Due to his research of ancient sect records, he had so understanding of the world. However, even those explanations were not very clear.
"The world we live in is vast," Zheng Yuandong continued. "In its center, there is a vast ocean, golden, filled with huge rolling waves. Legend has it that in the middle of that sea is an island, it is the location of the pathway across the Heaven and Earth divide.
"That is why the sea is called the Heavenspan Sea. Furthermore, the world we live in is called the Heavenspan Realm, sotis even the Heavenspan Land! Over the years, countless omnipotent beings have tried to cross the sea to step onto this island. Unfortunately, none have succeeded.
"Four powerful rivers are connected to the Heavenspan Sea. They extend to the east, west, south, and north. Whether the rivers exist because of the sea, or vice versa, is unclear. Regardless, these four rivers are known as the Eastern, Northern, Southern, and Western Heavenspan Rivers.
"The four great rivers connected to the sea are known as the Upside Rivers. Each of them eventually splits into four smaller branches, known as interdiate reaches. Along this line, these branches also split into four smaller branches, known as lower branches.
"Apart from that, the branches split into even smaller branches, which form the delta region.
