Seeing Han Yi’s confusion and it not appearing to be fake, He Fengdi shook his head slightly, thinking that he was overthinking it. There’s no way Han Xuxiao would chase and try to kill a Qi Cultivation Stage Seventh Layer junior disciple.

“Han Xuxiao is one of Blood God’s children of the Blood God Sect.”

“Junior Brother Han may not know that among the Qi Cultivation Ninth Layer, there are also divisions.”

“Entering the early stage of Qi Cultivation Ninth Layer is as ordinary as the Qi Cultivation Ninth Layer can get; this is referred to as early-stage Qi Cultivation Ninth Layer. When the spiritual power inside their body reaches a certain level, their combat abilities in this middle stage are considered strong. Next, the Qi Cultivation Ninth Layer reaches its late stage, which is known as senior Qi Cultivation. Finally, the realm arrives at the Qi Cultivation Ninth Layer Completion, also known as the Qi Cultivation Peak.”

“But above the Qi Cultivation Peak, there is a realm that did not originally exist. It is called the legendary Qi Cultivation, or the half-step Foundation Establishment.”

“Those cultivating in the legendary realm can all escape from ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivators. Some even have the ability to directly confront them.”

“Of course, the Foundation Establishment Stage referred to here means the early stage or the newly entered Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator.”

“Among the Qi Cultivating Cultivators of the Blood God Sect, there are nine people with special identities. They have a title – Blood God’s Child. Blood God’s Children have formidable strength and are all cultivators at the Qi Cultivation Peak and above.”

“Every generation of Blood God’s Children has only nine members, no more. If someone reaches the Foundation Establishment or meets their demise, another person takes their place.”

“Han Xuxiao is one of the nine Blood God’s Children of the Blood God Sect, and among them, he is top-notch, a Legendary Qi Cultivator.”

“However, it’s a little strange. Why did Han Xuxiao suddenly appear and openly challenge a Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator?”

Reaching this point, He Fengdi’s face displayed confusion, and he shook his head in puzzlement.

“Junior Brother Han, when Han Xuxiao appeared just now, he was behind you. Did he come here to chase and kill you?” Shen Ru asked suddenly.

Han Yi spread his hands and laughed, “How is that possible? I’m just at the Qi Cultivation Seventh Layer. How could I be worth his pursuit?”

Although there was a smile on his face, Han Yi’s Inner Heart was on high alert.

Thinking back to the killing intent he felt from far behind him just as he rushed onto the Immortal Ship, the killing intent made his whole body hair stand on end. Han Yi felt that Han Xuxiao had indeed come for him.

Facing a legendary Qi Cultivator, he definitely had a slim chance of survival with his current strength.

From He Fengdi’s explanation of the different layers of the Qi Cultivation Ninth Layer and comparing it to the many Qi Cultivation Stage cultivators he had seen fighting on the combat platform, Han Yi finally understood that the cultivator with the halberd he had killed belonged to the senior Ninth Layer.

After going through the Evil Mountain Range’s deadly battles, Han Yi had a deeper understanding of his current strength.

He could easily kill ordinary Qi Cultivation Eighth Layer cultivators.

He could kill ordinary Qi Cultivation Ninth Layer cultivators with a little effort.

He could win against senior Qi Cultivation Ninth Layer cultivators with full force.

However, facing the Qi Cultivation Peak, he could only use all his means along with restraint and take advantage of everything like time, place, and Spiritual Talismans in order to make a slight chance of winning, although this possibility was extremely low…

The cultivator with the halberd in the Evil Mountain Range, although his realm was at the senior Ninth Layer, he was not weaker than an ordinary Qi Cultivation Peak cultivator when it came to actual combat. Han Yi used his restraint and Yin Thunder Talisman to kill him.

However, facing a legendary Qi Cultivator, Han Yi felt that not only did he not stand a slightest chance of winning, but he might not even be able to escape.

This is a legendary cultivator among the Qi Cultivation realm, possessing the title of ‘legend’ and the power to fiercely clash with Foundation Establishment existences.

Such legendary cultivators should have profound meanings in every step they take.

Why is it that at this moment in the Evil Mountain Range, there are still some Qi Cultivation Ninth Layer and Eighth Layer Xuandan Sect disciples? Instead of chasing and killing these people, why is he chasing a Qi Cultivation Seventh Layer like me?

Han Yi quickly reviewed the events of the past two days and focused on the four Blood God Sect cultivators he had killed.

The most probable reason was that those four cultivators were somehow related to this Blood God’s Child of the Blood God Sect. He killed their people, and now the other party was seeking revenge.

This time, he couldn’t think of any other possibilities.

Standing beside Han Yi, Chu Jinmo glanced at him with a teasing smile but didn’t expose Han Yi’s thoughts.

“By the way, Senior Brother He, I have a doubt. Since there are quite a few Foundation Establishment Stage uncles on the three Immortal Ships, why didn’t they take action when our Xuandan Sect disciples encountered an ambush in the Evil Mountain Range?”

“As long as they take action, it will be easy for them to kill the Blood God Sect cultivators.”

Han Yi respectfully asked the question that had been on his mind ever since he left the woods, figuring that He Fengdi, as a senior at the ninth level who had also experienced the Cave Heaven trials, would definitely know more than him, an arduous practitioner.

He Fengdi didn’t ignore Han Yi because of their difference in realms and explained it patiently.

“Our Xuandan Sect has Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators, and so does the Blood God Sect.”

“The current situation is delicate, or rather, there’s an implicit agreement between the two sects, that is, Qi Cultivating Cultivators fight with their own realm, and the Foundation Establishment Cultivators fight with theirs.”

“Han junior brother, think about it, if the Foundation Establishment Stage people were to act against Qi Cultivators, who besides a legendary Qi Cultivator like Han Xuxiao with his extreme talent and strength could withstand the power of one attack from a Foundation Establishment cultivator?”

“In that case, if you destroy my Qi Cultivators, I will slaughter yours, and the foundation of the two sects would vanish, leaving both sects severely injured.”

“So, this implicit agreement has always existed, and this Evil Mountain Range mission is to anticipate the Blood God Sect sending its disciples to hunt us down. In the past, it was about training, but this time it’s real combat. The sect hopes that we’ll grow quickly in the midst of bloodshed, even if it comes at a tragic cost.”

After reaching this point, He Fengdi’s eyes flashed with murderous intent, and he continued after a brief pause:

“As for Han Xuxiao’s appearance just now, it was equivalent to provoking our sect’s Foundation Establishment Cultivators. In such a situation, he was seeking his own death, so it’s not surprising that he was killed by Elder Lan.”

After finishing his explanation, He Fengdi gazed outside the Immortal Ship at the calm sky above, a hint of envy in his eyes.

Only when one reached Foundation Establishment Stage could they not be considered insignificant.

Han Yi’s eyes moved, mulling over He Fengdi’s words.

From the explanation, Han Yi gained a new understanding of the relationship between the two sects.

Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators deal with their own kind, and Qi Cultivators with theirs- at first, this unwritten agreement might seem difficult to understand. Both were battling for life and death, so shouldn’t they hate each other to the point of extermination?

Upon further consideration, it made perfect sense. Without this agreement, Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators would directly face their respective opponents, even to the point where Golden Core cultivators would join the fray. As a result, Qi Cultivators and even Foundation Establishment cultivators would die.

Thus, regardless of the initial intentions, the end result would be the same, a double defeat. In the end, the winning sect would be left with only Golden Core cultivators or a few Foundation Establishment cultivators, leading to the collapse of the once great sects.

This was a situation both sects were unwilling to face unless absolutely necessary.

And so, this delicate implicit agreement had come into being.

This was a form of restraint.

Han Yi came to this understanding, remaining silent and contemplative.

A moment later, the Foundation Establishment Elder who had pursued Han Xuxiao returned, secretly glancing at Han Yi without saying anything, and took his original seat at the front of the Immortal Ship.

Han Yi roughly guessed that he probably hadn’t succeeded in killing Han Xuxiao.

But he wasn’t afraid; although Han Xuxiao was strong, it was uncertain when their next encounter would be. By the time they met again and he had advanced to the peak of the Qi Cultivation stage, it would be unclear who would kill who if their skills were further improved.

Three days later.

The number of people on the Immortal Ship Han Yi and the others were on had reached one hundred. Though the one-month deadline hadn’t arrived, they had enough people.

Afterward, the Immortal Ship set sail to return to the sect..
