"As expected, the main source of my Sign-Ins still relies on Shenxuan Sect..."
Han Xuanji's thoughts raced.
Without Shenxuan Sect, how would he live?
After signing in, Han Xuanji immediately returned to Shenxuan Sect without stopping. Then, with the Sign-In count refreshed, he completed another Sign-In at Lingyun Palace.
"Congratulations, Host, for successfully signing in at Lingyun Palace. You have received one Array Grandmaster Legacy."
Hmm?
An Array Grandmaster Legacy?
Han Xuanji's heart stirred; this was no small matter.
He had previously signed in for similar rewards. By simply claiming the reward, he could quickly Master all the contents of that Legacy.
This meant he would immediately become an Array Grandmaster.
The profession of Formation Master in the Cultivation World could be said to be quite niche, as it was too difficult and had extremely high barriers to entry.
Even ordinary Formation Masters could become honored guests of some Sects, and an Array Grandmaster was an Advanced talent essential for major Sects.
Truly, when compared, the value represented by an Array Grandmaster was no less than that of a Body Integration Realm expert.
If a Sect had an Array Grandmaster overseeing it, then few would dare to offend that Sect.
As far as Han Xuanji knew, Shenxuan Sect did have several Formation Great Masters, but none had stepped into the Realm of Array Grandmaster.
"After becoming an Array Grandmaster, I can upgrade the Formation within my Immortal Cave and also research new sword Formations..."
Thinking this, Han Xuanji no longer rushed to refine the Heavenly Devil Essence Blood. He immediately returned to his Immortal Cave and began secluded Cultivation to comprehend this Array Grandmaster Legacy.
He had already signed in for many Formation Legacies before and was not far from the Realm of Formation Great Master, so comprehending this Array Grandmaster Legacy was very fast.
In just a few days.
Han Xuanji had completely assimilated this Legacy. His extraordinary Comprehension Ability made his absorption capacity extremely strong; no matter how profound the knowledge, he could essentially use it after a single read-through.
Inside the Immortal Cave.
Han Xuanji raised his hands and continuously made gestures, causing ripples to spread. Many Top-Grade Spirit Stones floated in the air, and before long, they upgraded the many existing Formations.
The safety was greatly improved, and the Cultivation environment also became more excellent.
"Being an Array Grandmaster is indeed different."
Seeing this, Han Xuanji couldn't help but show a hint of joy in his eyes.
His current Formation level was strong even among Array Grandmasters. If he had enough time and resources, he could even set up a heaven-shaking killing Formation, one that would force even Body Integration Realm experts to flee.
Of course, the resources required to set up such a Formation would be an astronomical figure.
After all, a Cultivator's foundation was still their own Realm. If he were in the Body Integration Realm, setting up a seventh-tier killing Formation would be much easier, and he could even create a Formation Plate to assist in combat.
"It's time to refine the Heavenly Devil Essence Blood."
Han Xuanji took a deep breath:
"Hoo..."
The calming effect of the Top-Grade sandalwood incense in the Immortal Cave quickly took effect, allowing his mind to quickly settle down.
Han Xuanji didn't hesitate. He immediately took out the Heavenly Devil Essence Blood, placed it in his palm, and then swallowed it.
Instantly:
"Boom!"
A scorching torrent surged from within his body, like a volcanic eruption. Powerful energy permeated his limbs, bones, and every corner of his Physical Body.
At this moment, even with Han Xuanji's Physical Body, he felt a pressure, as if his body was being incinerated by a raging fire, accompanied by a piercing pain.
"Is this elevating my Bloodline?"
Amidst the intense pain, Han Xuanji suddenly gained enlightenment.
This drop of Heavenly Devil Essence Blood was a System-exclusive version, naturally without any side effects, and there was no need to worry about any tricks set by the original owner of the blood.
This was a leap in the level of life, and enduring it would bring him great benefits.
Thinking this, Han Xuanji let out a muffled groan, gritted his teeth, and silently endured the pain.
After enduring for an hour.
Han Xuanji slowly opened his eyes, a sharp glint flashing within them:
"The essence of this Heavenly Devil Essence Blood is extremely high. If my Physique wasn't strong, an ordinary Soul Transformation Cultivator who swallowed it probably wouldn't be able to refine it at all and would instead be consumed by this energy."
As Han Xuanji thought this, he looked at his panel.
"Host: Han Xuanji"
"Cultivation: Huashen Realm Eighth Level"
"Cultivation Technique: Feather Transformation True Scripture, Soaring Sky Swordplay, Flying Immortal Sword Art, Unyielding Golden Body, Heavenly Stepping Steps..."
"Divine Ability: Cave Void Divine Eye, Ten Thousand Tribulations Seal."
"Traits: Immortal Talent, Extraordinary Comprehension Ability, Innate Dao, Ten Thousand Tribulations Thunder Body."
His Cultivation had indeed reached the Huashen Realm Eighth Level.
"Awesome, it directly allowed my Cultivation to Breakthrough two Realms."
Han Xuanji was overjoyed.
One must know that after the Huashen Realm Seventh Level, it was already considered the Late Stage of the Huashen Realm. The increase in strength was significant.
The Late Stage demonic Cultivator he had previously killed was at the Huashen Realm Seventh Level. If he were to act now, the opponent wouldn't even be able to withstand a single sword strike.
Moreover, after refining this drop of Heavenly Devil Essence Blood, his Bloodline level had also improved, and his Cultivation speed became faster.
The originally estimated time to Breakthrough to the Returning to Void Realm had also been greatly shortened.
"This wave, a huge profit!"
Han Xuanji felt delighted and beamed with joy.
Thanks to Lu Fan's guidance, he had essentially obtained many treasures from the Heavenly Demon Sect for free.
It seemed he could interact more with the children of Luck in the future.
"With my current strength, can the Peak Master and Elders of Lingxiu Peak combined defeat me?"
Han Xuanji slowly pondered.
Those who could become Peak Master and Elders on Lingxiu Peak were naturally outstanding among their peers in the same Realm, and the Cultivation Techniques they practiced were not weak.
But Han Xuanji was confident he could take them down in one fell swoop.
After all, his talent and foundation were completely incomparable to ordinary Soul Transformation experts.
Their limit might be Returning Void and Body Integration, but for him, Immortal Ascension was not difficult.
Of course.
Han Xuanji still didn't become arrogant and think he was invincible.
The Kyushu Continent was vast beyond measure. Not to mention the ancient Central Continent, which was filled with hidden Masters, there were many Returning Void experts in the Eastern Azure Continent alone, and quite a few in the Body Integration Realm. Who knew where an old monster might exist... The next day.
Han Xuanji arrived at the Servant Courtyard. At this time, his superficial Realm had already Broken Through to the Foundation Establishment Realm, and he had been promoted to an Outer Sect Disciple.
This time, he came to see Li Shanhai and catch up with him.
After all, Han Xuanji had moved out of the Servant Courtyard for quite a while, and the two hadn't seen each other in a long time.
Li Shanhai looked at Han Xuanji, who had already reached the Foundation Establishment Realm, and felt a mix of emotions:
"What do you plan to do from now on?"
After a long time apart, seeing Han Xuanji again, he was actually amazed by Han Xuanji's temperament. Although the old Han Xuanji had an ethereal aura, he didn't possess the current extraordinary and refined demeanor, resembling a banished Immortal.
If he hadn't been able to sense that Han Xuanji's aura was only at the initial Foundation Establishment, he would have truly suspected that he had encountered some peerless Prodigy.
"Do what?"
Han Xuanji pondered for a moment.
After becoming an Outer Sect Disciple, he was officially recognized by the Sect, and many functions on his jade token were unlocked for him.
Transactions, bounties, missions, competitions... For Genius Disciples with a Master, things were usually arranged: they would diligently Cultivate, then participate in various Sect competitions to gain fame and receive decent rewards. This was the most standard Sect training method.
As for Outer Sect Disciples with ordinary talent and no backing, they would generally form teams to complete some external Sect missions.
These missions basically involved dealing with some demons, demonic Cultivators, and evil Cultivators causing trouble in the areas near Shenxuan Sect... The mission rewards were also quite generous.
When Lu Fan became an Outer Sect Disciple before, he often took on missions alone, and his efficiency was very high, which earned him a certain reputation.
However, these missions were also very dangerous, and a slight oversight could lead to failure.
Therefore, if you had connections, you could also seek a Sect position.
Disciples in the Foundation Establishment Realm could serve as stewards in the Servant Courtyard, or as stewards in a certain medicinal garden or alchemy workshop.
But those were ordinary Outer Sect Disciples; without doing missions, they wouldn't have enough resources to Cultivate.
As for Han Xuanji, who lacked neither resources nor Spirit Stones, why would he do Sect missions?
As for Sect competitions, he was even less likely to participate.
Of course, it was to Sign-In every day and Cultivate discreetly.
However, he naturally wouldn't voice these thoughts.
Han Xuanji smiled and said:
"I'll first go into secluded Cultivation to consolidate my Realm. I'll think about it again when I run out of Spirit Stones."
"Hmm..."
Li Shanhai hesitated, wanting to say more.
The two chatted for a while, then parted ways.
Li Shanhai sighed, then revealed a resolute look in his eyes and walked towards the secluded Cultivation chamber.
