Immortality and Cultivation: This old man seeks enlightenment through mere survival.

"Enough with the nonsense, I'm here to recommend my disciple to join the Demon-Slaying Alliance."

Liu Sining said with a cold face.

The fat man's master was also a Qi Refining Perfection cultivator, and he had some grudges against Liu Sining's master, Daoist Qi.

Therefore, the disciples below also disliked each other.

The conflict has a long history.

"Oh?"

The fat man, who looked like a mountain of flesh, glanced casually at Lu Zaian beside him.

"This guy? He looks ordinary. What makes him qualified to join the Demon-Slaying Alliance?"

Upon hearing this, Liu Sining's expression grew even colder.

"Pound, whether you're qualified or not isn't up to you to decide."

As a disciple of the Demon-Slaying Alliance, I have the right to recommend him. Hurry up and process his paperwork; I'm not going to waste my time arguing with you!

The fat man known as "Pound" chuckled and said:

"I'm in charge of registration today, so of course I need to ask clearly..."

So what if you have the right to recommend?

What if this kid is a spy planted by the demonic path?

What if it becomes detrimental to our Demon-Slaying Alliance...?

Before Pang De could finish speaking, Liu Sining suddenly slammed her hand on the table, interrupting him, and shouted:

"You fatso, don't take things too seriously!"

You mean the contents of this photo stone are fake?

Or is it that a Qi Refining cultivator could have an impact on the Demon Slaying Alliance?

Liu Sining slammed a photo stone on the table, which displayed footage of Lu Zaian killing Chen Zihao and his companions.

Pound's expression changed slightly upon seeing this.

He hadn't expected that Lu Zaian could kill four members of the Chen family single-handedly.

With the evidence of the recording stone, he could only reluctantly take out a copper token from his storage bag.

"what name?"

"An Yi"

Lu Zaian glanced at the storage pouch at Pang De's waist, his eyes flickered, and he answered.

"Who are you from?"

"A lone cultivator, without roots or a duckweed."

Why did you join the Demon-Slaying Alliance?

"For military merit."

Lu Zaian's answer was standard and conventional.

Pound pointed to an open space nearby and said coldly:

"Let's talk about it after we pass the 'Questioning the Heart' formation."

The Heart-Questioning Array is a second-tier, low-grade array. Within the array, there are continuous illusions that can test a cultivator's true inner thoughts.

This is also one of the methods used by many factions to select disciples.

Of course, it was a piece of cake for Lu Zaian.

His spiritual strength and array formation skills were more than enough to easily deal with the Mind-Questioning Array.

Array patterns lit up on the open ground, enveloping Lu Zai'an...

A moment later, the array patterns went out.

Lu Zaian's eyes were clear, and he passed smoothly.

"take it!"

Seeing that the Mind-Asking Formation showed no abnormalities, Pang De angrily tossed the bronze plaque to Lu Zaian.

Lu Zaian held the bronze plaque in his hand, infused it with a trace of magic power, and immediately sensed the information inside.

"An Yi, a rogue cultivator, currently without a team, zero battle merits."

Despite some setbacks, he successfully joined the Demon-Slaying Alliance.

Lu Zaian's eyes were deep and thoughtful. Next, he would obtain some more identity tokens...

"An Yi, would you like us to show you around the alliance next?" Liu Sining asked.

"No need, I can manage on my own. You all go ahead and do your own things."

"Alright then, see you later."

The three exchanged telepathic tokens, and the two women left first.

Lu Zaian went to check out the mission area next to the main hall first.

The place was bustling with people and incredibly lively.

Many Qi Refining cultivators come here to hand over tasks or form teams to recruit others.

The missions include killing enemies, finding resources, protecting mines, transporting supplies, and so on...

The number of battle points awarded for each mission is different.

But overall, killing enemies is still the most important metric.

The cultivation resources that can be exchanged for battle merits are very abundant for Qi Refining cultivators.

However, from Lu Zaian's perspective as a Foundation Establishment cultivator, it was quite ordinary.

After all, this is just a branch of the Demon Extermination Alliance.

"Hey bro, newbie here? Want to join our team?"

A cultivator at the late stage of Qi Refining came over to ask Lu Zaian a question.

"No need, I'll take a look myself."

.........

After declining invitations from several Qi Refining teams, no one bothered Lu Zaian anymore.

He took on two missions to fight the enemy on his own.

This is just an excuse to go out.

As for the identity card... it's already been settled.

Time flew by, and night fell.

"what……"

Pound yawned, ending his day's tasks, and swayed his fat body out of the Hall of Merit.

His task for the past few days has been to register and redeem battle merits at the Hall of Battle Merits.

This is a very lucrative job.

Not only can you exercise some minor power and make some money, but it's also easy and safe.

It was precisely because his master was a Qi Refining Perfection cultivator that he was chosen for this task.

The only downside was that I didn't get to disgust that little vixen Liu Sining.

The thought of Liu Sining and Li Qian's fair and voluptuous figures made Pound's breathing quicken.

"Phew... I really want to taste what these two beauties are like..."

Just as Pound's mind was filled with thoughts, he suddenly felt his eyelids droop and then uncontrollably fell into a coma.

.........

The next day.

Using the excuse of going on a mission, Lu Zaian leisurely left the Demon Extermination Alliance's headquarters and continued on his way.

His storage bag already contained a pile of identity tokens.

I got them all from Pound last night.

He didn't know what punishment Pound would receive for losing these identity tokens.

But even if someone suspects Lu Zaian, there is absolutely no evidence.

Half a month passed in the blink of an eye.

Lu Zaian finally arrived at the Chen family with the speed of a Qi Refining cultivator.

Yuchan Peak – located on the edge of Luolei Plain.

This is the second-tier spiritual vein where the Chen family is located.

This area was originally under the jurisdiction of Zixiao Temple.

However, the atmosphere of demonic cultivation is now very strong.

Along the way, they were constantly ambushed and killed by bandits.

Or perhaps a demonic cultivator who commits murder and blood sacrifice.

There were also some disciples of the Burning Blood Sect.

Lu Zaian still vividly remembers that unique blood-burning demonic transformation technique.

Of course, what if they were blind and ran into Lu Zaian?

Then don't blame Lu Zaian for upholding justice...

"It seems that the Blood Burning Sect has seized resources from several Foundation Establishment forces and has gained a foothold in the Northern Sky Domain..."

In Lu Zaian's eyes, the Demon-Slaying Alliance had become a complete joke.

This forced him to consider the future changes in the situation in the northern airspace.

"As long as I successfully obtain the spiritual water during this trip to the Chen family, my main body can then focus on planting trees and cultivating."

When the grand formation is activated, the only threats to the main body will be Core Formation cultivators and the Blood Burning Sect.

"If I can just lie low for a few more decades, and both my cultivation and array formation skills improve, then I can truly rest easy..."

Suddenly, a cold shout interrupted Lu Zaian's thoughts.

"Halt! What are you doing here? This is the Chen family's territory; trespassing is prohibited!"

At the foot of the mountain ahead, Chen family disciples were seen patrolling and guarding the area.

Lu Zaian immediately adopted the cautious and embarrassed demeanor of a rogue cultivator, and said with an awkward smile:

"Brothers, I have heard that the Chen family is recruiting rogue cultivators, and I would like to come here to give it a try. I hope you can make an exception for me."

The Chen family disciples guarding the area were all cultivators at the late stage of Qi Refining.

Upon seeing Lu Zaian's respectful demeanor, he felt a surge of superiority and sneered at Lu Zaian.

"You peasants are quite well-informed, but unfortunately, my Chen family doesn't accept trash. How can you prove you're not trash?"

"Haha, that's right. You think you can just join any Foundation Establishment faction whenever you want?"
