Cultivation: I have an equipment slot

now.

Zhang Yan was truly numb.

He underestimated the world. He originally thought that the Southern Wilderness was the whole world, but then a Central Plains appeared.

All I can say is that the world is much larger than he imagined.

He had always been narrow-minded and limited in his understanding of the world.

"Are there immortals in other great worlds?" Zhang Yan thought for a moment, then asked Gu Taixuan.

"There are indeed immortals."

"Otherwise, how can our human race fight against other races?"

Gu Taixuan chuckled softly.

"Does humanity have other enemies???"

Upon hearing Gu Taixuan's words, Zhang Yan's eyes widened, and he asked in disbelief.

After all, according to Gu Taixuan, the entire human race possesses thirty-six great worlds, numerous small worlds, and countless secret realms.

With such strength, if not invincible, then certainly unmatched, right?
What do you think of his statement?

Does the human race have natural enemies?
Could it be that there is some powerful race that can make humans look bad?

"Of course, you don't think that the human race is invincible, do you?" Hearing Zhang Yan's words, Gu Taixuan laughed and then said softly, "Well, actually it's not just you. When I first received this news, I was also shocked. I couldn't believe that the human race had other enemies."

After all, in my opinion, the human race is already so powerful that they should have occupied all the resources.

However, in reality, although the human race is powerful, it is far from being truly invincible.

It could even be said that the human race is only a race of moderate size.

The truly powerful races are the Demon Race, the Ghost Race, the God Race, and the Monster Race.

Gu Taixuan spoke softly to Zhang Yan.

"Demons?"
Ghost clan?

Protoss?

Demon race?

Upon hearing the names of these four races, Zhang Yan was immediately shocked. He hadn't expected that even though the human race was already so powerful, it was still being suppressed by these four races.

How powerful must these four races be?
Moreover, let's leave aside the demons, ghosts, and gods.

What is the so-called demon race?
A monster?
After thinking for a moment, Zhang Yan asked, "The demon race you mentioned..."

Is it a demonic beast?

"Monster?"

Gu Taixuan was taken aback by Zhang Yan's words, then burst into laughter and said, "You could say that. The demon race is indeed a beast race, but a beast race is not a demon race."

"The so-called demon race are actually those demon beasts that are born with intelligence and have precise inheritance. These demon beasts are not only highly intelligent, but also have powerful bloodlines. They are extremely powerful from birth. It is said that some demons are born with the strength of the Nascent Soul stage."

Gu Taixuan's voice was somewhat heavy when he spoke.

"Born into the Nascent Soul stage???"

Zhang Yan was truly shocked.

Nascent Soul stage!

This is not the Foundation Establishment stage.

You have to understand, there are so many countries and so many people in the Southern Wilderness.

Those who become Nascent Soul stage cultivators are few and far between.

You can count them on two hands.

Those demons are born at the Nascent Soul stage, which...

The pressure on the human race is indeed too great.

It could even be described as exaggerated.

If all demons were like this, then the human race would never be able to turn the tide.

It seems she saw through Zhang Yan's thoughts.

Gu Taixuan chuckled softly, then said, "Don't worry, the number of demons who are born at the Nascent Soul stage is still small."

Even among the demon race, they are considered high-level demons.

And what you may not know is...

The more advanced the life form, the lower its chances of getting pregnant.

In fact, children born to human cultivators at the Dharma Aspect Realm are born as Foundation Establishment cultivators.

But do you know what?
Many high-level cultivators even suppress their children's cultivation, ensuring they are born with only the Qi Refining stage cultivation level instead of the Foundation Establishment stage.

Gu Taixuan explained some knowledge to Zhang Yan.

"It's because..."

"Magic spells and supernatural powers?" Zhang Yan thought for a moment and then asked Gu Taixuan.

"Not bad 1"

A hint of appreciation appeared on Gu Taixuan's face.

“Spell foundation building is very necessary. Of course, unless you can use a spiritual treasure to build your foundation, then whether you use spells or not is not important,” Gu Taixuan said softly.

"Lingbao?"
What's this? "

Zhang Yan was somewhat puzzled.

Oh shit.

This Central Plains is far too complicated.

He often brings up knowledge points he hasn't covered before.

This makes him look like a country bumpkin.

Although……

He really does seem to be a country bumpkin.

“Spiritual treasures are things above magical treasures. They are much more powerful than magical treasures, but they are also much rarer. It is very difficult to refine them. Almost every spiritual treasure needs a great opportunity to be born.”

"That……

"Do you have a magical treasure?" Zhang Yan thought for a moment and asked directly.

"Forehead……"

Upon hearing Zhang Yan's words, Gu Taixuan was momentarily speechless, unsure of what to say.

What should he say?
Does it mean yes, or no?

If I say no, wouldn't I be demeaning myself too much?

If there is any...

He himself didn't actually possess a complete spiritual treasure!
"I do have a magical treasure, but unfortunately it's a defective one."

Moreover, it's only a low-grade spiritual treasure among spiritual treasures.

Gu Taixuan spoke to Zhang Yan.

"Low-grade spiritual treasure..."

It's still incomplete.

“Then it seems this magical treasure is truly extremely precious.” Zhang Yan nodded, immediately understanding its value.

"Therefore, if one has a spiritual treasure as a foundation for cultivation, one can actually cultivate steadily to the Dharma Aspect Realm."

But that's too difficult.

Where can ordinary cultivators obtain spiritual treasures?
Even cultivators at the Dharma Aspect Realm, upon obtaining a spiritual treasure, would be reluctant to use it for their child's Foundation Establishment...

Gu Taixuan continued to explain.

In fact, Zhang Yan could understand it very well.

For cultivators at the Dharma Aspect Realm, lifespan is long; they can easily live for several thousand years, and some can even live to be tens of thousands of years old.

Their long lives meant they didn't really value their offspring.

If this child doesn't work, then I can just have another one.
But if this magical treasure is gone, then it's truly gone!
"Okay, I understand."

"Then, what kind of assessment are you referring to?"
Moreover, I seem to have heard before that there is some kind of reward? Zhang Yan voiced all his questions.

"What? Did I mention a reward?" Gu Taixuan looked at Zhang Yan suspiciously, wondering if he had lost his mind.

He doesn't remember mentioning any reward!

But he shook his head, and there was nothing wrong with saying that.

After all, even if he doesn't say it now.

Zhang Yan will find out later.

After all, in Gu Taixuan's mind, Zhang Yan was destined to enter the Human Race Dao Alliance and join the Thirty-Six Great Worlds.

This is someone I need to befriend; there's no need to deceive him about this.

I organized my thoughts a little.

Gu Taixuan continued, "Actually, it's very simple. The so-called assessment is actually a competition of combat strength and potential."

After all, the human race is currently suffering from the ravages of war and needs to continuously strengthen its own power.

Therefore, if you want to join the Human Race Alliance and enter the Thirty-Six Great Worlds, the first requirement is to have sufficient strength.

In addition, sufficient potential is also required.

Strength and potential are both indispensable. Gu Taixuan said to Zhang Yan, "Actually, you can rest assured about this. Whether it's combat strength or potential, you have already met the standards."

"We'll see what level of genius they can rate you then."

"This is graded?" Zhang Yan felt his eyes were opened.

"Of course there are different levels."

From the lowest level, Class C, to the highest level, Class A, and even above Class A, the King level, and even the Emperor level.

The criteria for judging each level are different.

Moreover, and most importantly, the rewards for each person who makes the judgment are different.

If you can achieve a Grade A rating, the rewards from the Human Race Dao Alliance will be enough for me to cultivate to the True Self Realm.

"True Self Realm..."

Zhang Yan muttered to himself.

He learned a new name.

The realm of Dharma appearance is followed by the realm of true self.

But for some reason, he always felt that the name was strange.

"Of course, don't worry. Although the Human Alliance has given us a lot, it has given you even more. You can even choose to join a super sect." Seeing Zhang Yan muttering to himself with his head down, Gu Taixuan thought that the other party was uncomfortable.

He quickly explained, "Or, I could share some of these rewards with you."

“No need, these rewards are what you deserve,” Zhang Yan shook his head.

He is not an ungrateful person.

The other party had already promised him various benefits, so it would be going too far for him to continue to offer more.

"But what kind of super sect are you referring to, senior?"

Zhang Yan continued to ask.

"The super sects I'm talking about are actually sects that have immortals. Those powerful sects even have their own independent great worlds as their master's sects, and their strength is extremely formidable."

"If you join a sect like that, you'll be able to roam freely throughout the human world," Gu Taixuan sighed.

"The sect of immortals?"

"Walk sideways?"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Yan's eyes immediately lit up.

Don’t say anything else.

Zhang Yan's favorite thing is to find a powerful backer.

Moreover, most people would find it difficult to resist Zhang Yan, this sycophant.

because……

Very simple.

Zhang Yan's actions were not simply a matter of flattery.

He can analyze the other person's psychology based on the inscriptions on their magical artifacts.

In this way, he can act as a worm in the other person's heart.

Know what the other person is thinking.

Just ask.

How could someone betray their own confidant?

Definitely not!
Normally, when they meet Zhang Yan, they would only think that this kid is like them, that this kid thinks the same way they do!

Teaching this kind of person is so comfortable.

Just a little bit.

Tell me, who wouldn't like someone like that?
……

"Is this assessment difficult?"

You said you want to test combat strength and potential. What form of assessment is that?

How long until the next assessment?

Zhang Yan thought for a moment, then quickly asked Gu Taixuan.

"The assessment is extremely difficult."

Generally speaking, only cultivators with the Golden Core stage cultivation level can participate in the exam, and only the top 100 million people with the Golden Core stage or above are accepted.

There are two forms of assessment.

In the initial elimination rounds, there are thirty-six great worlds, each with a secret realm containing a large number of monsters. Participants can earn points by hunting these monsters.

Those who rank higher in the points system will be admitted.

"As for the subsequent competition, after the selection process in the Thirty-Six Great Worlds, a new secret realm will be opened. In this secret realm, cultivators will compete against each other, and the remaining 100 million cultivators will be qualified to enter." Gu Taixuan patiently explained to Zhang Yan.

One million?

"Golden Core?" Upon hearing the other party's words, Zhang Yan felt a chill run down his spine.

This was the first time he had heard of it.

The Golden Core stage can actually be calculated using a number of millions.

And this is the number after the selection process.

How many people were there before the selection process?

Several million Golden Core cultivators?

Tens of millions of Golden Elixir Pills?

Damn it.

So many golden pills.

It has a larger population than the Tianmu Mountains.

really……

The area of ​​the Tianmu Mountains is still too small.

Compared to a behemoth like the Human Alliance, they were like ants.

Zhang Yan sighed.

He had always thought that the Qingheng Sect was already a fairly large sect.

But now his understanding has been completely overturned.

This world is really too big.

It was quite different from what he had imagined.

"Actually, you don't need to worry about so much right now. With your strength and potential, as long as you don't have bad luck, you can definitely get into the top one million."

"We could even say we've entered the top 100,000," Gu Taixuan said to Zhang Yan.

"Entering...the top 100,000..."

Hear this.

For some reason, Zhang Yan felt a little awkward.

In his understanding.

If you make it into the top 100,000, aren't you just a complete waste?
"The main reason is that there wasn't enough time."

There are only twenty years left until the next assessment. In these twenty years, you don't know if you will be able to successfully form your core. If you can successfully form your core, then you can participate smoothly.

If you fail to form your core, you'll have to wait a hundred years.

"Year 100?"

Zhang Yan was speechless.

The selection process for the Human Race Alliance is quite ruthless.

It happens only once every hundred years.

Zhang Yan definitely didn't want to wait a hundred years.

Actually, he still had one more hesitation.

He was wondering whether he should participate in the assessment.

After all, judging from Gu Taixuan's words, once you participate in this assessment and enter the top 100, you will enter the Thirty-Six Great Worlds.

It's good to be in the big world.

But it also means danger.

"Sigh, I still have to go." Zhang Yan sighed.

Although these thirty-six great worlds are somewhat dangerous, they offer even more opportunities!
It's estimated that he'll be able to collect a lot of magical artifacts, and even magic weapons, by then.

Only then can he truly take off.

"Speaking of which, I also need to work hard for the assessment."

"I'll need to put together several sets of spirit weapon armor, and I must make sure they're perfect," Zhang Yan thought to himself.

He is different from others.

He's someone with a cheat code.

Therefore, Zhang Yan needs to make the most of his cheat code, like being ranked 100,000th!

Zhang Yan's goal is to break into the top 100!
Otherwise, wouldn't that be a waste of his overpowered status? (End of Chapter)
