I Can Accumulate Proficiency, Starting from Alchemy

Daqian Immortal Country, located in the southeast of Qianzhou, has a holy place called Stars Sea.

Stars Sea is adjacent to the Eastern Sea and is responsible for suppressing the Eastern Sea Evil Clan.

It took more than a month to get to the southeast of Qianzhou from Xuandan Sect in Shu State, which was even farther than going to Yujing Mountain.

Unlike their last trip to Yujing Mountain, where they didn’t really see the entirety of Yujing Mountain, this time, from more than ten miles away, Han Yi got his first glimpse of the magnificent sacred land.

A huge immortal island floated on the edge of the Eastern Sea.

Yes, floated – without a pillar supporting it, it was suspended in mid-air, lonely and seemingly weightless, about a hundred meters above the ground.

Above the immortal island were gathered immortal peaks, shrouded in mist and filled with immortal qi. Continuous palace complexes were embellished on the peaks, densely packed, too many to see the boundaries.

At a hurried glance, one could see cultivators taking to the skies, traveling on spiritual tools, and immortal boats shuttling back and forth, with no shortage of sightings.

Such a splendid immortal scene.

Looking at the area alone, this immortal island could be called a continent, which was at least a hundred times larger than the Xuandan Sect s land. Among the soaring cultivators, there were plenty of Golden Core Stage and even Nascent Soul Stage cultivators.

“There are many demon cultivators in the Eastern Sea. Once every hundred years, countless evil beasts break through and become demon cultivators, even Golden Core Stage and Nascent Soul Stage demon cultivators have appeared. But those demon cultivators who have transformed into human forms usually seek benefits and avoid disaster, heading toward the deeper parts of the Eastern Sea.”

“During the Evil-slaying Union, Qi Cultivation Stage disciples will hunt evil beasts on the islands between the shallow sea and the deep sea, while Foundation Establishment Stage and above cultivators will delve into the Eastern Sea to slay demon cultivators.”

“Whether you slay evil beasts or demon cultivators, the spoils of war belong to you and need not be handed over. Moreover, after the Evil-slaying Union, Stars Sea will reward you based on the number of evil clan members you killed and ranked.”

“Top-grade spiritual tools, Flawless Spiritual Pills, Foundation Establishment Pills, Top-Grade Spirit Stones, and even treasures and Top-Grade Spirit Stones are among the prizes.”

“So, although this time is full of danger, it is also a great opportunity.”

“The danger lies not only in the evil clan but also in fellow cultivators, so you must be vigilant of others.”

“The opportunity includes not only inner pills of the evil clan’s members but also the rewards of Stars Sea.”

On the immortal boat, Zhuge Wu You spoke in a deep voice, looking up at Stars Sea with a flicker of longing in his eyes.

Xuandan Sect’s spirit vein was only a fifth-stage vein, while Stars Sea had a Ninth-stage Spirit Vein, one of the two Ninth-stage Spirit Veins in the entire Daqian. Even a little leakage from it would be enough for Xuandan Sect to live prosperously for tens of thousands of years.

“According to the agenda of the Gathering of immortals, it is divided into two parts: the first part is showing one’s techniques, and the second part is slaying evil.”

“The first part is to demonstrate the strength of cultivators from various sects. Based on previous situations, it mainly involves Daqian Immortal Country, Two Holy Lands, Three Sects, and Seven Sects with Nascent Soul Stage cultivators. It will be a quick and non-lethal competition.”

“This is the showing of one’s techniques.”

“The second part is the slaying of evil. All cultivators will receive a jade ring, which has image-recording function, to carry with them. Following the guidance of Stars Sea’s cultivators, they will go to the designated sea area, slay any evil beasts and demon cultivators they see, and then wait for the Stars Sea’s cultivators to guide them back.”

“Showing one’s techniques is just a prelude, slaying evil is the real goal.”

Zhuge Wu You stopped talking when he reached this point since they had already arrived.

The immortal boat stopped about ten kilometers off the island, and Zhuge Wu You flew forward to talk to a middle-aged cultivator who had arrived by air. A moment later, he flew back to the immortal boat.

“Let’s go.”

“We are in Courtyard No. 23 of Area C.”

Zhuge Wu You held a dark gold token in his hand, triggering the token with his divine consciousness, and a pale gold arrow pointed the way for the immortal boat.

It took the slower immortal boat a full quarter of an hour to cross the ten-kilometer distance. In this quarter of an hour, everyone on the boat was stunned.

If Xuandan Sect was compared to a small sect at the foot of the mountain, then Stars Sea would be like an immortal court-like holy land.

During the crossing of this ten-kilometer range, they saw five Nascent Soul Stage cultivators, more than twenty Golden Core Stage cultivators, and countless Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators since those who could fly on spiritual tools were at least in the Foundation Establishment Stage.

Of course, the Nascent Soul Stage and Golden Core Stage cultivators in this group were not all from Stars Sea. Half of them were from various sects in Daqian Immortal Country who had come to participate in the Evil-slaying Union this time.

Just as the immortal boat settled in the courtyard.

A deep voice, like a true immortal, rang out across all of Stars Sea.

“Lord Qingxu has arrived, Stars Sea is honored to welcome him.”

As soon as everyone in the courtyard touched down, they were startled and looked up, even Zhuge Wu You was not an exception, staring with fixed attention.

They saw a bald middle-aged man carrying a sword walking from the depths of Stars Sea’s immortal island. With each step, the void trembled, and the spiritual energy at his feet condensed into a multicolored glow.

A moment after seeing the middle-aged man’s appearance, everyone’s heart trembled, and a sudden surge of killing intent filled their chests, making it difficult to restrain themselves.

“Don’t look, calm your mind.”

Zhuge Wu You was the first to break free, changing his expression and not daring to look up again.

With a light scolding sound, he brought the others back to reality. Everyone hastily lowered their heads, not daring to look again. The murderous intent in their hearts gradually subsided, and their faces slowly returned to normal.

“He’s so powerful. With just one glance, 1 almost sank into a hell of slaughter.” Fei Qing murmured in shock, and the others’ expressions changed as well..
