The Path of Survivor begins with obtaining titles

Chapter 612: Chapter 308: The Onslaught of Beasts

Lin Yi rode his Flying Sword above Qinglian Spirit City, heading in the direction of the city gates while surveying his surroundings.

Previously, the two Divinity Transformation Cultivators of the Flying Spirit Hall had said that this Spirit City wasn’t very large, yet its area far exceeded that of any Immortal City in the Lower Realm, by several times at that.

In the Lower Realm, Cultivators did not face major threats and led rather leisurely lives. Golden Core cultivators needed to take a Daoist title, and the cities built around Sects were also known as Immortal Cities.

However, in the Spirit Profound Realm, things took on a more pragmatic approach. There was none of the superfluous fluff—cities were known as Spirit Cities, and people addressed each other by name, without the emphasis on Daoist titles.

While flying, Lin Yi also took a glance behind him. The City Lord Mansion was located at the central position, but the structure within Qinglian Spirit City was not detailed in the Jade Slip.

The major forces of the Human Clan of the Spirit Profound Realm were also vaguely introduced in the Jade Slip.

The Jade Slip mentioned that above these forces existed a special entity known as Tai Xuan Dao Palace, which housed numerous Cultivation Technique Manuals, all sorts of rare and exotic treasures, and even controlled some of the Human race’s secret realms.

The Dao Palace did not intervene in the internal disputes among the Human race, focusing only on their safety and security. Naturally, if a certain force threatened the safety of the Human race, then the Dao Palace would intervene.

The management of the Nine Great Spirit Cities was the responsibility of the Dao Palace, and the City Lord was appointed by the Dao Palace. Whether they were from within the Dao Palace or promoted to the position based on their merits was unknown.

In the Spirit Profound Realm, as long as one killed the Demon Tribe and Monster Beasts, they could earn credits. With these credits, one could exchange for anything they desired within the Dao Palace: Cultivation Techniques, Pills, Flying Swords, special natural resources, and so on—everything was available.

Based on this information, in order to kill more Demons and Monsters, the Nine Great Ascension Spirit Cities were undoubtedly the best choice. That’s why so many Cultivators gathered here, striving to kill enemies from the Demon and Monster factions to earn credits and improve their strength.

The abundance of Cultivators also meant that the resources available for exchange were plentiful.

Throughout his journey, judging by the bustling activity below, Lin Yi speculated that the number of Cultivators in this Spirit City was probably more than the combined total from several Sects in the Lower Realm.

Soon, he rode his sword to the city gate near the Demon Tribe territory and slowly descended. Near the city gate, he did not detect any restrictions against flying.

This suggested that the attacks of the Demon Tribe were likely not scheduled, and if there were restrictions against flying, it would definitely affect backup support from the rear.

His arrival immediately caught the attention of the Cultivators around the city gate, which made Lin Yi muse inwardly about how Invincible East’s image was indeed indefeasible. In this foreign Immortal City, her likeness still drew immense attention.

As he left the city gate, Lin Yi felt the presence of Formation arrays. They seemed even more profound than the arrays within the Dan God Secret Realm. From the information in the Jade Slip, the establishment of the Nine Great Spirit Cities must be closely related to the Dao Palace.

If he had the chance, he would definitely pay a visit to the Dao Palace.

Outside the city gate was a vast open space, carrying a heavy scent of blood that almost turned the ground red. In the distance lay the territory of the Demon Tribe—an endless forest. In the middle of the open ground was a massive trench, presumably arranged by Qinglian Spirit City.

On the Human side, aside from the bloodstains, everything was clean, while on the Demon side, some remnants of limbs remained.

When he used the Eye of Emptiness to observe, there were no Divine Souls or Resentment on the Human side, likely because Rebirth Charms had been used to consecrate the battlefield afterwards. The Demon side was different—the Resentment soared to the skies, as the lesser Demons that died were probably not buried.

At the city gate, there weren’t many Cultivators traveling between the Human and Demon sides, and they mostly moved in groups, likely having accepted some tasks related to the Demon Territory.

When leaving the city, there were no checks. However, upon entering, the inspection was rather meticulous.

Besides that, at the city gate, some Cultivators had set up stalls, ranging from Foundation Establishment up to Nascent Soul, creating a small marketplace.

Perhaps they were some Loose Cultivators nearby Qinglian Spirit City; both entering the city and setting up a stall came with a cost, and living and cultivating inside the city were even more expensive.

This was similar to the situation with the Liu Yun Sect. Some Loose Cultivators or Martial Artists gathered around Qing Yun Immortal City, nearly forming a village. They would only enter the city to rent Cave Mansions for Cultivation after saving some Spirit Stones.

Even though he was an Ascender, the Flying Spirit Hall only provided him with one year of residence benefits. Based on his estimation, the cost of continuing to live and cultivate inside the Spirit City would not be low, and might even require killing Demons to earn credits.

Lin Yi stood beside the trench that separated them from the Demon Tribe, looking inside at the blood-red color. As soon as he approached, he was met with the strong smell of blood, indicating that many Monster Beasts had died within the trench.

There were many Talisman templates and Trap Arrays inside.

He now understood that the information in the Jade Slip was accurate. This Qinglian Spirit City had likely experienced countless battles.

In the Lower Realm, the Demon Tribe stayed mostly within the Monster Forest and had not formed a collective group. They fought on their own and had never erupted into major wars with the Human race. The Demon Tribe of the Spirit Profound Realm was different—greedy and bloodthirsty, they sought to dominate all the resources belonging to the Human race.
