I Can Accumulate Proficiency, Starting from Alchemy

Chapter 539: Chapter 265: Emperor Qian’s personal expedition, the immortal python that won’t die_2

Han Yi gently stroked the blade, feeling the spirituality in the thick golden light radiating from the Sword Tool, and couldn’t help but exclaim: “What a good sword.”

He put the long sword into the jade box and put it into the Qiankun Ring.

Regarding the gift from the Daqian Emperor, he was clear that he would not accept it without a reason. The Daqian Emperor only wanted him to join the battle. This point, he believed, was inevitable for him unless he abandoned the entire Xuandan Sect and fled alone. In that case, this kind of behavior would be considered as disturbing the military’s morale before the war. The Xuandan Sect would definitely be exterminated to make an example.

The Daqian Emperor bestowed the second-ranking Patrol Envoy and rewarded him with a high-quality treasure tool. This was to make Han Yi put forth his full effort. It was believed that the other cultivators ranked high in this list also received special treatment.

Han Yi figured out the reason when the other party took out the Sword Tool.

He couldn’t abandon the Xuandan Sect. Without any other changes, going to join the battle would be the only option.

“Thank you, friend Pang. His Majesty is kind and generous. I, Han Yi, will definitely do my best to annihilate the Evil Clan and contribute to the stability of Daqian.”

Having received the Treasure Tool, Han Yi’s face was filled with a smile, and his words were even more beautiful.

Hearing this, Pang Ren breathed a sigh of relief, briefed Han Yi on some matters about the recruitment and left in a hurry.

Pang Ren left. On one side, Zhuge Wu You, who had not spoken all along, sighed wistfully.

“Even Daqian has started to mobilize for war.”

“It seems that this battle is not promising.”

“Junior Brother, what do you plan to do with the sword?”

Zhuge Wu You looked at Han Yi, his face full of worry. He didn’t have a good suggestion or plan. Not only he but also the Sect Master would find it difficult to make a decision on this grand battle between realms.

Han Yi retracted his smile, his eyes calm and without any ripples.

“Now there are no other choices. Whether I accept this sword or not, I must cooperate with the Daqian Guard.”

“Moreover, in order to make me go all out, they also demand two more Gold Core cultivators and sixty Foundation Establishment cultivators from our sect.”

“Senior Brother, who do you think we should arrange to go with me?”

This was also one of the matters that Pang Ren had instructed before. Not only the Xuandan Sect, but other sects also had to follow the same requirement. Eighty percent of the Monarch cultivators, the Gold Core cultivators in the top hundred, in the Daqian Evil Annihilation Register needed to join the team. In addition to these, each sect needs to allocate a certain number of Gold Core and Foundation Establishment.

This is one of the methods of restraining the sects within the realm.

For Xuandan Sect, in addition to Han Yi, two more Gold Core cultivators and sixty Foundation Establishment cultivators were required. However, unlike Han Yi, who was rewarded with a high-quality Sword Tool, the others did not have such honor.

Zhuge Wu You thought for a moment and said, “This time, let Junior Brother Zhu join me.”

Han Yi thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.

Besides Han Yi, the other two Gold Core cultivators from the Xuandan Sect this time shouldn’t go if their strength is too weak, as it would basically lead to death. Therefore, it would be fine for Zhuge Wu You to go.

Si Hongxue is weak, Shen Ping is good at managing the sect, Lian Tingxi has excellent talent and made outstanding progress, breaking through to the Middle Golden Core Stage not long ago. As the sect’s future besides Han Yi, Huo Ming is seriously injured, so these four are not suitable.

As for Fei You, who had just broken through to the Golden Core Stage not long ago, he hasn’t returned from Qian Du yet, and even if he did, he would not be allowed to go due to his weak strength.

After considering all factors, within the sect, the most suitable person to go was none other than Zhu Siyuan.

Having decided on the candidates, Zhuge Wu You looked at Han Yi with a joyful and reminiscent glance.

“I never thought that in just a few years, Junior Brother’s strength has become so terrifying, ranking as the fifth Golden Core cultivator in Daqian.”

“Even the Sect Master would be shocked when he returns.”

“As long as Junior Brother is alive, even if the Sect Master encountered an accident, our sect would still be safe. In some more time, when Junior Brother advances to the Nascent Soul stage, our sect will truly secure the position of Nascent Soul Great Sect.”

Zhuge Wu You was filled with emotions and discussed further plans with Han Yi before leaving Xuandan Peak and convening the sect’s elders to discuss the candidates for the upcoming battle.

This time, it didn’t involve Qi Cultivation Stage disciples, so the repercussions were not huge. The sect remained stable, but beneath the surface, there were undercurrents.

Han Yi also attended the meeting, and after an hour of discussion, they confirmed the list of sixty Foundation Establishment elders.

That night, when nightfall arrived.

At the highest tower of Vermilion Bird Peak, Han Yi, uncharacteristically, did not cultivate but stood at the top with his gaze falling on the present-day flourishing Xuandan Sect.

Sixty years had passed since he crossed over. Han Yi had changed from an unknown Qi Cultivation Stage cultivator to the fifth Golden Core cultivator in the Daqian Evil Annihilation Register. He knew how difficult the journey had been, with almost every moment spent on cultivation.

That night, Han Yi, somewhat indulgent, stopped all cultivation and emptied his mind.

…

On the following day.

An Immortal Boat rose from the Xuandan Sect and headed east. This time the Daqian Emperor led the expedition personally, so all the cultivators of Daqian were required to gather outside Qian Du before joining the battle.

Four days later, Han Yi’s Red Immortal Boat arrived outside Qian Du, hundred kilometers away from Qian Du. Even at this distance, there were already sect Immortal Boats stationed there.

This time, the Daqian Immortal Country had deployed elite cultivators. There were no Qi Cultivation Stage cultivators, and the weakest were the low-level cultivators of the Daqian Guard, all of whom were Foundation Establishment cultivators.
