Who Brought Him into the Cultivation World?

”You can’t possibly want me to find the formation eye, right?”

Han Yu pointed at himself, looking incredulous.

Judging by Su Xiaoxiao’s words, it was clearly directed at him.

”No, I mean I want all of you from the Central Continent to find it together.”

Su Xiaoxiao thought, after all, this wasn’t solely a matter for their Celestial Dao Sect. Even if for self-preservation, the Central Continent should contribute.

Ultimately, they themselves would benefit as well.

”But the Central Continent is struggling to protect itself now and has no spare capacity to do these things.”

Han Yu shook his head. Now the Yama Hall was conducting sacrifices rampantly, turning the entire Central Continent into chaos. If not for these incidents, perhaps the Central Continent would have had the capacity to search.

Su Xiaoxiao hesitated to speak, sighing after a moment.

”There’s a cruel fact you need to recognize: it’s impossible for the Central Continent not to have casualties.”

It was not only that; even reducing the number of deaths was extremely difficult.

”This disaster—if half of the Central Continent’s population survives, it would already be fortunate. In the worst-case scenario, perhaps only cultivators will remain in the end.”

An Asura Field, that was how Mu Zili had described the Central Continent before.

Initially, Su Xiaoxiao didn’t believe it, but after witnessing the scene in the Central Continent firsthand, and looking at all the altars, the future of the Central Continent might genuinely become an Asura Field.

Not just the future—even now, the sky of the Central Continent made them very uncomfortable. Every time they looked up, there was an unsettling sensation—oppressive and heavy.

This was definitely not an illusion; the Great Formation had to be at work.

”I’ll take you to a place. Whether it can be done or not depends on what he says.”

The first person Han Yu thought of was Quan Xiaotong. Even if they needed to mobilize the entire Central Continent’s strength, it should be his responsibility, as only his resources could achieve it.

In Sea Stone City, cultivators filled the entire city, turning it into a fortress.

Today, they were just welcoming the first batch of unexpected guests.

Was it Han Yu and his group?

No.

When Chicken Feather Gall was found, upon seeing a familiar face, he almost bolted away.

However, he didn’t run in the end, because Liu Zongyuan was already well-versed in capturing people.

This also startled a group of people including Quan Xiaotong. When all the major sect leaders and elders, along with Quan Xiaotong, arrived, they met with Liu Zongyuan and others.

Wang Xingzhi’s old face maintained a constant blush; coming to seek help from the natives of the Central Continent was somewhat embarrassing.

Yet, there was no other way. Not long ago, their group of twelve had a confrontation with the Inquiring Sign group.

Naturally, the encounter ended in immediate conflict. The twelve Celestial Dao Sect members stubbornly fought near fifty opponents plus a half-crippled Dao Entry Realm cultivator for about ten rounds.

The result goes without saying. Except for Wang Xingzhi, who stealthily backstabbed continuously, the remaining eleven, including Liu Zongyuan, were almost entirely wiped out.

If the group hadn’t been fixated on first eliminating Wang Xingzhi—because they despised him—they wouldn’t have provided Liu Zongyuan and a few others the opportunity to retreat early. Otherwise, they might have all perished there.

Now, aside from Wang Xingzhi, the other eleven lingered on the verge of death, far from any semblance of celestial poise.

”Do you want me to treat your injuries?”

Chicken Feather Gall instinctively wanted to shake his head in refusal. He hadn’t forgotten how violently this guy treated injuries last time. If he hadn’t eaten White Lotus quickly enough then, he might have lost half his life.

”We won’t let you help us for nothing.”

Liu Zongyuan spoke with a dejected expression, yet at that moment had no items to offer.

Hence, he could only turn to look at Wang Xingzhi tied behind him. Naturally, Wang Xingzhi was also strapped for resources; he had nothing valuable, and the worthless items...

He glanced at the Divine Platform Realm cultivators of the opposing party, reluctant to put forward his things.

Inwardly, he felt a little overwhelmed. Were these the native Central Continent cultivators?

The atmosphere was awkward. Chicken Feather Gall cast desperate glances at Quan Xiaotong and others.

Quan Xiaotong was also hesitant, stuck in a dilemma of whether to help or not.

If they helped naturally, they could set conditions. But with this situation and seeing Chicken Feather Gall’s face turned white with fright...

But if they didn’t help, he didn’t want to waste such an opportunity.

Fortunately, the second wave of unexpected guests quickly barged in.

A Celestial Chasm spanned the void, appearing over the sky of Sea Stone City, and several figures suddenly emerged.

Thus, two groups from the Celestial Dao Sect confronted each other again.

”It’s you!”

”My lord!”

”Why is it you?”

The last line was clearly spoken by Han Yu as he looked at the group of battered cultivators with a peculiar expression.

How did this group of unlucky fellows end up so injured?

Liu Zongyuan once again recounted their encounter with the Inquiring Sign group, eliciting an even stranger expression from Han Yu.

So, after the Inquiring Sign experienced an unpleasant encounter with me, they ran into these unfortunate fellows and vented on them?

”So, what do you want for you to help us with healing?”

The words were directed at Han Yu. Since he already knew Han Yu, it was more effective to simply ask him.

Huh?

Han Yu was rather surprised, because not only Liu Zongyuan looked at him this way, but Quan Xiaotong seemed to also intend for him to decide.

For a moment, numerous eyes simultaneously turned towards him.

”What do you say?”

Han Yu didn’t make a casual decision for others but instead turned to look at Chicken Feather Gall.

”I... I’ll listen to you.”

Chicken Feather Gall forced himself to stay calm, revealing a face full of grievance, stuttering as he spoke.

”Dao Seeking Stones, do you have any?”

Han Yu’s next words left Liu Zongyuan’s group dumbfounded.

Could this group of Initial Realm cultivators possibly possess such items?

Liu Zongyuan could only cast his gaze towards Su Xiaoxiao’s group. In theory, they were all under Su Xiaoxiao, so naturally, it was up to a leader to handle such matters.

Su Xiaoxiao hadn’t expected Han Yu to be so obsessed with Dao Seeking Stones, constantly asking for them.

However, he took another look at this group of Central Continent people, noticing that their cultivation levels had reached the initial stage of the Divine Platform Realm.

This deepened his misunderstanding of Han Yu.

He only thought all this was done for the benefit of the Central Continent people.

”So how many do you want, exactly? Just give a definite number.”

Already burdened by countless debts, Su Xiaoxiao spoke up immediately, asking Han Yu.

”Let’s round it off. Owe me sixty Dao Seeking Stones, how about that?”

Han Yu couldn’t be bothered to calculate and added another nine stones in.

He spoke with such ease, but Su Xiaoxiao was quite shocked.

Nine Dao Seeking Stones for treatment—was this not akin to consuming Divine Medicine?

Only Liu Zongyuan had a peculiar expression, because as far as he was concerned, the things that came from Chicken Feather Gall’s mouth were indeed Divine Medicine.

But only he knew; Su Xiaoxiao found it difficult to comprehend.

”Do you even know the value of a Dao Seeking Stone?”

Nine Dao Seeking Stones were enough to help a group of perfected Initial Realm cultivators step into the Dao Entry Realm.

The value was so high that it went without saying.

”How about this, I’ll let him heal one person first. After you see it, then decide whether it’s worth it.”

Han Yu believed, given Chicken Feather Gall’s value, these people couldn’t possibly not understand after witnessing it.

Su Xiaoxiao initially believed Han Yu was extorting them, but he appeared so confident.

Liu Zongyuan had been observing until Han Yu pointed him out. Being the only one who knew about Chicken Feather Gall’s ability, naturally, he served as the demonstration.

Furthermore...

The process of healing always required a lead.

Things seemed to return to the point where Liu Zongyuan had no choice but to undergo treatment. Back then, the only onlookers were Chasing Soul and Chicken Feather Gall.

And today, it was an entire crowd.

But being able to lead a group for treatment seemed as if he’d never intended to preserve face.

When he and Chicken Feather Gall sat down on the ground, over there, Chicken Feather Gall had already begun spitting saliva under everyone’s scrutinizing gaze.

One by one, White Lotus flowers continuously materialized, leaving the group from the Celestial Dao Sect absolutely stunned.

What left them even more flabbergasted was when Chicken Feather Gall took a look at Liu Zongyuan and then grabbed a White Lotus to start eating it.

What the hell kind of healing method was this?

It just felt inexplicably nauseating; the scene was simply too unseemly.

And Liu Zongyuan’s next action shattered everyone’s understanding; he actually also grabbed a White Lotus and began eating it.

”Is this fucking healing?”

Su Xiaoxiao couldn’t help but curse aloud.
