The Immortal World was indeed not the source of hope, nor was it another starting point for all cultivators. It was just a purely cruel world. In this world, it was crueler than any other world in the Myriad Heavens, because the Immortals who could enter the Immortal World were cruel people who had survived the cruel battles in the Myriad Heavens.
Even if it was Qin Lang, how could he be as naive as he appeared to be?
Any Immortal who could enter the Immortal World not only needed to have a strong cultivation, but also a strong will. If they didn't have a bellyful of evil tricks, then they must be cold and ruthless enough. Otherwise, how could they become a member of the Immortal World against so many competitors?
Of course, there were exceptions to everything.
The exceptions to the Immortal World were some powerful Ancient Immortal Sects and the Heavenly Court. They would cultivate their own forces in the Myriad Heavens, and thus would select a group of disciples with potential and loyalty to enter the Immortal World. These fellows were almost like "guaranteed entry", and had a high chance of successfully entering the Immortal World and becoming Immortals. Even if this kind of Immortal entered the Immortal World, no one would dare to have any ideas. Because if you killed an Immortal with a foundation and backing, then the other party's Immortal Sect would definitely find you and kill you to vent their anger. There was no need to doubt this. Of course, the Heavenly Court would also cultivate some experts from the Myriad Heavens. For example, the Immortal Punishment Institution in the Nine Heavens World was inextricably linked to the Heavenly Court in the Immortal World. Some of the young cultivators with potential in the Immortal Punishment Institution were also the focus of the Heavenly Court in the Immortal World.
However, the truly terrifying one was the Banished Immortal!
But Qin Lang didn't know much about the Banished Immortal, because the Banished Immortal was one of the secrets of the Immortal World. Even the Buddhist King Tianci didn't know what was going on with the Banished Immortal.
In the Immortal World, Immortals with a foundation and backing could naturally live comfortably. At least in terms of cultivation, no one would interfere or obstruct them, and no one would dare to have any ideas about them. However, for a rootless duckweed like Qin Lang and those Itinerant Immortals who had ascended to the Immortal Realm through their own efforts, the Immortal Realm was simply a cruel and merciless world to them.
Immortals without a foundation were considered loose immortals in the Immortal World. This was the same as those loose immortals in the Cultivation World. They could only rely on themselves because they were alone. Once they offended some powerful immortal sects, they would immediately be annihilated. Once they encountered an even stronger loose immortal, they could be "eaten".
All in all, the reason why the Immortal Realm was the Immortal Realm was that it targeted the disciples of the Immortal Sect and the Heavenly Court. As for the other Itinerant Immortals, they were either recruited as fighters by the Immortal Sect and the Heavenly Court, or they could only stay in the 'wilderness' of the Immortal Realm and kill each other like wild dogs.
For example, Ye Huoying was clearly a Loose Immortal, and a powerful one at that. In the wilderness of the Immortal World, he was clearly a predator. And in the eyes of Ye Huoying, an Immortal who had just ascended to the Immortal Realm like Qin Lang was simply a standard fat sheep. Eating him would be as easy as blowing off dust.
Of course, for Qin Lang, this was also equivalent to being taught a vivid lesson by the other party. Now, Qin Lang roughly knew what the rules of the Immortal Realm were. He also knew that this world was actually crueler than any other world in the heavens.
It was no wonder that the supervisor of the Immortal Realm was not very anxious after seeing Buddha King Tianci and the others escape. Instead, he took his time to deal with Qin Lang first. Obviously, Venerable God Tiger and Venerable Yin Di knew about the 'wilderness law' of the Immortal Realm. They knew that the majority of loose immortals who had just ascended to the Immortal Realm would soon be eaten by those loose immortals who had survived the cruel battles without any protection.
"Since you have already understood the wilderness law of the Immortal Realm, then stretch your neck and wait for your death. But you are also quite lucky to have fallen into my hands. Because I have always done things in a straightforward manner, I will directly end you. Unlike some people, after killing you, they will continue to torture your soul for fun. "After saying this, Ye Huoying was ready to kill Qin Lang.
"One last question: Don't tell me that the Immortal Realm's Heavenly Court doesn't care about what you do?" Qin Lang asked this question purely out of curiosity.
"Hahahaha!"
This question made Ye Huoying burst into laughter again, "You brat, it seems like you are the kind of kid who is very talented in cultivation but not very smart. A young kid like you who hasn't seen much of the world would ask such an idiotic question! When you are a cultivator and you see humans killing each other, would you care? When you are a mortal and you see animals killing each other, would you care? Similarly, when the Immortal Realm's Heavenly Court sees us Itinerant Cultivators killing each other, it is like watching a tiger eating sheep. That's all. "
Ye Huoying's analogy was very appropriate and very philosophical, because it was also the truth. When we saw two groups of ants fighting each other, did we ever think of interfering? Perhaps the only thing we were interested in was how many of them died. Similarly, when we see a pack of wolves chasing a flock of sheep, we only want to see their ferocious side when hunting. In the end, we come to the so-called principle of "maintaining ecological balance, the strong preying on the weak".
The Immortal Realm stood at the peak of the Heavenly World, so the cruel nature of the Heavenly World was vividly displayed in the Immortal Realm. Qin Lang knew that in many people's imagination, the Immortal Realm should be a magical, beautiful world full of rare treasures, countless beautiful and kind fairies, full of order and peace … But unfortunately, that was only the Immortal Realm in the imagination. The real Immortal Realm was, of course, completely different from the Immortal Realm in the imagination.
The reason why the Immortal Realm became like this was because the nature of the Immortals in the Immortal Realm was like this. Which Immortal that was able to overcome all obstacles and ascend to the Immortal Dimension hadn't experienced countless trials and tribulations? It was even to the extent that for the sake of cultivating and attaining the Dao, they didn't hesitate to sever their humanity. This was the so-called 'severing the six roots', 'severing the seven emotions and six desires'. Becoming an Immortal basically meant that one had completely bid farewell to their humanity, and all that remained was the pursuit of power and immortality.
Since the Immortals in the Immortal Realm did not even have the most basic human nature, who would dare to expect them to build a truly beautiful and peaceful world?
To put it bluntly, this was just a more cruel world, a more unscrupulous wilderness world.
Ye Huoying was now playing the role of the "wolf eating sheep" story, and Qin Lang was the unfortunate sheep. No matter how Qin Lang tried to explain, it was useless. This guy was determined to eat Qin Lang clean.
