Isn't this a game? How come you guys are really cultivating immortals!

Seeing that it was Su Huanli, Song Jiulai immediately said, "I'll go now."

After the Immortal Sacrifice Ceremony was over, they were about to leave Liuxian City. Before that, Su Huanli suggested that Song Jiulai go to get a sect token.

When the time comes, when the disciples of the Changsheng Sect travel far away in groups, they can bring the sect token with them as long as it is within a reasonable range.

There are no rules for receiving sect tokens.

A sect with at least ten members is enough.

Song Jiulai reported it himself, so there was no need for the Wanxian Sect and others to investigate specifically.

Because the sect's boundary marker is stationed there, the Wanxian Sect has a special method that can directly observe the sect's situation from the boundary marker. For example, even if you conceal the payment of taxes, you will be in trouble if the Wanxian Sect finds out.

You can conceal the truth as long as you can bear the consequences.

This is not like giving you a heads-up before the inspection. The Wanxian Sect can inspect whenever they want, and it only takes a moment.

Why are the conditions so relaxed?

Because you need to pay a medium-grade spirit stone every year to obtain the token.

This trip brought disaster to Song Jiulai and all his belongings.

At first, Song Jiulai wondered why the Wanxian Sect was trying to find ways to cheat people out of money, but she soon changed her mind.

Su Huanli accompanied her to the Wanxian Sect's office in Liuxian City, paid the money, and received a token made by someone from the Wanxian Sect.

It seems to be made of the same material as the jade slip, and is only the size of a palm when held in the hand.

The word "Changsheng" is engraved on it.

You know what, it looks quite auspicious this way.

Who doesn’t want to live forever?

What a good name!

As long as the token is crushed, people from the Wanxian Sect will come to rescue immediately.

But this token cannot be used indiscriminately. A sect can only use it once, and it will basically be used when the sect encounters a catastrophic disaster.

Or else he is a bodyguard for the Wanxian Sect?

From another perspective, the Wanxian Sect also set up a cordon in various places so that if something happens in the sect, they will know who did it.

For example, was it an attack by monsters or some other force?

When I think about it carefully, I feel that it is not impossible to pay this money...

After handing over the token, Su Huanli took Song Jiulai to the Fanren Restaurant for dinner.

Ever since Song Jiu came to celebrate her success in building her foundation, she has become somewhat fond of tasting mortal delicacies.

But she felt that the food in Liuxian City tasted bland.

Now I come here just to experience the customs and culture of Liuxian City.

Mortals do not have spiritual roots and cannot feel the difference between cultivators.

In this place where many mortals gather, except for the few days when it is bustling, there are usually no monks coming here.

Song Jiulai asked Su Huanli curiously while eating, "Senior Sister Su, do other sects collect taxes like our Wanxian Sect?"

Su Huanli raised her head, looked at her, and then shook her head.

She still lowered her voice and told Song Jiulai: "I only know that the tax collection system of the Tianyang Sect next door is three times that of the Wanxian Sect."

As for what real life is like, Su Huanli has no say since she has never been there and doesn't know any cultivators from the Tianyang Sect.

Even in a grand event like the Immortal Sacrifice Ceremony, other sects would only bring high-level cultivators or second-generation cultivators with outstanding talents. In any case, they would not come into contact with ordinary cultivators like them and would not know much about the situation of other sects.

But even so, when the triple number came out, Song Jiulai took a breath of cold air and felt his scalp tingling.

Although the Wanxian Sect only collects this amount once a year, it is still a considerable pressure to pay it all at once.

Moreover, Song Jiulai obtained it through the same cheating method as the players, not to mention that the players can also make money.

Other small sects like the Changsheng Sect would have been driven to ruin by the high tax system long ago.

"but……"

Su Huanli did reveal a secret: "There are always cultivators from the Tianyang Sect coming here through methods we don't know about. It's said that they have to pay a huge price. But they dare not reveal their identities."

Isn’t this smuggling?

After all, the monster battlefield is separated from several major sects.

It is impossible for an incompetent monk to pass through.

If there is nothing to pursue, there is actually not much difference between the Wanxian Sect and the Tianyang Sect. Both can force people to smuggle to another large sect. Song Jiulai, who doesn't know much about the situation, only vaguely feels that the Yunzhou Continent may not be as "peaceful" as she imagined?

The main reason is that she was born in the territory of Wanxian Sect, and it is impossible for her to know the situation of other major sects by relying on a few travel notes.

All we see are stories passed down from the Yunzhou continent itself.

Song Jiulai will remember all these things and see if he needs to select some information to include in the version update in the future.

It also allows players to follow her to gradually understand the Yunzhou Continent.

On the last day in Liuxian City, the ceremony of worshiping the immortals officially began.

Maybe Song Jiulai was thinking too beautifully.

Because she found that this ceremony of offering sacrifices to the immortals had nothing to do with ordinary cultivators like them.

Liuxian City will only be open during this festival, which is equivalent to providing a communication platform for the lower-level cultivators, and they can just buy some things on the black market.

The main place for the ceremony of worshiping immortals is in the main city of Wanxian Sect, and Song Jiulai and his men cannot get through.

All the sects that came from Liuxian City gathered in the huge sect building in Nakong, Liuxian City.

That was the territory of Guanhai Sect. Due to the strong oppression of rank, Song Jiulai and the others didn't even know what was going on there.

All you could see was this building glowing with golden light on the last day - it was so dazzling.

Song Jiulai squinted his eyes because of the golden light, and didn't dare to look up for a long time.

She also felt a power similar to that of the sun in the other world.

It has been a long time since I experienced the feeling of being pricked and shedding physiological tears.

She thought that when she became strong in the future, she would get rid of this bad habit.

She wants to set off fireworks.

Let the whole city go!

When a big event happens up there, we should celebrate down there too.

As for those geniuses who exist in gossips, they are indeed geniuses.

Not seen at all.

Song Jiulai had never felt what the world of cultivation with distinct levels was like more than at this moment.

At least on Blue Star, when major festivals are celebrated, the TV stations will broadcast them live...

On the last day, Su Huanli, too, held her face in her hands, staring up at the sky. Though the stings prevented her from looking straight ahead for long, she couldn't hide the envy on her face. "In my lifetime, I'm already quite content to have reached the Foundation Establishment Stage. If only I could one day break through to the Golden Core Stage, how far can I possibly go on this path to the heavens of cultivation?"

"You will definitely be able to ascend." Song Jiulai said sweetly, saying it without asking for money: "I think you, Senior Sister Su, are very beautiful and talented. You have established your foundation at such a young age, so the golden elixir is naturally expected in the future."

Su Huanli was amused: "You are really good at talking."

"Yes." Song Jiulai asked calmly, "Senior Sister Su, how many people are there in your Feique Sect now?"

"We?" Su Huanli said without hesitation, "Including the outer disciples, there are only about two hundred people."

More than two hundred people?

Is this the only talented monk in Wang'an County?

"Is your sect leader in seclusion?"

Su Huanli shook her head. "No, the Sect Master left a year ago. Now everything in the sect is managed by the Second Elder. Unless something unexpected happens, he probably won't be back for decades."

The lifespan of a Jindan stage cultivator is several hundred years, and it is very common for them to go out and not return for ten or twenty years.

Song Jiulai's eyes lit up with a 'BIU'.

The boss is not here...

Wouldn't that give her a chance to steal home?
