Luo Ying didn't say anything, he just bowed and said, "Send the emissary off." The emissary didn't even turn his head as he turned around and left.
After the emissary left, Luo Ying turned his head to Zhao Hai and said, "Come with me, I'll explain it to you later. But Zhao Hai, you have to remember not to offend anyone here. Otherwise, it wouldn't be good for you, the Hundred Treasures Realm, or the Ten-thousand Realm Battlefield."
Zhao Hai didn't understand the situation around him, so he didn't dare to act recklessly. Moreover, he also discovered that although the messenger was a Severed Soul Expert, his attack was much stronger than a Severed Soul Expert's. This might be related to his cultivation method. Zhao Hai didn't dare to act recklessly.
At the same time, Zhao Hai also noticed that they were in a valley. It was just like the beginner camp of the World of Cultivation when he first entered the Ten-thousand Realm Battlefield. The valley was very clean and flat. The transmission formation plaza was built below it. On both sides of the valley were caves.
Luo Ying led Zhao Hai to a cave. There were two guards in front of the cave. Luo Ying took out a token and showed it to the two guards. The two nodded, then Luo Ying led Zhao Hai into the cave.
At the same time, Zhao Hai noticed that the two people guarding the cave were actually Immortal Experts. Moreover, there was a sign on the cave residence with the words' 23 'written on it.
Zhao Hai was surprised. In the Ten-thousand Realm Battlefield, Immortal Experts were Elder-level characters. But now, they're here as gatekeepers? This was too strange.
After the two entered the cave, Zhao Hai discovered that it was a very large cave. The cave was divided into many smaller caves. Each cave had a defensive formation in front of it.
Luo Ying walked to the entrance of a small cave, then she took out a token and sent it into the formation. The formation flashed with white light, then the fog slowly disappeared, revealing the entrance of the cave. Luo Ying led Zhao Hai inside. Just as the two entered, the formation activated again, and the fog once again blocked the entrance of the cave.
Zhao Hai looked around the cave. The cave wasn't very big, only about 100 square meters. The furnishings inside were very simple. There were only a few praying mats and nothing else.
After arriving here, Luo Ying let out a long breath. Then he turned to Zhao Hai and said, "Little Hai, come and sit down." Zhao Hai complied and sat down on the praying mat.
Luo Ying also sat down. Then he looked at Zhao Hai and said, "Do you have a lot of questions?"
Zhao Hai nodded. Luo Ying smiled faintly and said, "It's fine. Every time someone comes here, they would have a lot of questions. We're here to help you answer them." Zhao Hai nodded, then Luo Ying smiled faintly and said, "Don't worry.
Luo Ying looked at Zhao Hai and said, "We're no longer in the same plane as the Ten-thousand Realm Battlefield. The Ten-thousand Realm Battlefield is now called the Cultivator Plane. In other words, the people there can only be called Cultivators. They've just touched the surface of the Cultivation Realm."
Zhao Hai stared. Luo Ying looked at him and smiled faintly as he said, "Don't you feel strange? The strongest Immortal Expert in the Ten-thousand Realm Battlefield is already a Nascent Soul Expert. Moreover, he can shake mountains with a single move. How can he only touch the surface of the Cultivation Realm? "
Zhao Hai nodded. Then Luo Ying said, "Little Hai, let me ask you. What do Cultivators cultivate for?"
Zhao Hai stared, then he thought for a moment and said, "To make yourself stronger!"
Luo Ying shook his head and said, "Cultivation is to make yourself stronger, this isn't wrong. However, you forgot something important. Cultivation can make you live longer. Everything in the world has a lifespan. Humans are the spirit of all things. They have spiritual sense and can distinguish the universe. However, humans also have a lifespan. Compared to other creatures, a human's lifespan is very short. Because of this, in order to make themselves live longer, ancient experts began to explore cultivation and slowly developed it into the Cultivation Realm. To put it bluntly, cultivation is to defy the heavens and change one's fate. It's to go against the laws of the world."
Zhao Hai nodded, he agreed with what Luo Ying said. Cultivators cultivate in order to live longer. Becoming stronger was also a way for them to live longer.
Luo Ying said, "After countless years of development, the Cultivation Realm is now perfect. Moreover, it's still making progress. In the Ten-thousand Realm Battlefield, you can live to a Nascent Soul Expert. But here, a Nascent Soul Expert is just the beginning."
Zhao Hai was shocked. A Nascent Soul Expert was just the beginning. In other words, Immortal Experts were just the beginning. How was this possible?
Luo Ying looked at Zhao Hai's expression, then he sighed and said, "The realm we're in now is called the Cultivation Realm. It's composed of countless Sects. Since a long time ago, the Elders of these Sects used their magic power and countless treasures to refine Martial Realms. Then they placed these realms in the Cultivation Realm and opened the restrictions of these realms. This allowed people from the Cultivation Realm to enter these realms. Because of this, the realms sent people to these realms and slowly formed the Ten-thousand Realm Battlefield. The main reason why the Cultivation Realm established the Ten-thousand Realm Battlefield was to select people from the Ten-thousand Realm Battlefield to join their Sects."
Luo Ying looked at Zhao Hai, then he sighed and said, "In the beginning, the Sects had good intentions. They would select experts from the various Martial Realms and slowly nurture them to become the core strength of the Sects. However, as time passes, the Cultivation Realm's development is getting faster and faster. Now, there are a lot of young geniuses in the Cultivation Realm, so there's no need to select people from the Martial Realms. However, the Cultivation Realm spent a lot of effort to bring the Martial Realms to the Cultivation Realm. Moreover, after being in the Cultivation Realm for so many years, it has slowly integrated with the Cultivation Realm. Calling back the Martial Realms is no longer possible. The Sects can't just give up on the Martial Realms. Therefore, they would still select people from the Martial Realms. However, these selected people can no longer enter the Sects, they would instead enter another place, the Death Arena." Luo Ying looked at Zhao Hai and sighed, "Since the beginning, the Sects had good intentions. They would select experts from the Martial Realms to join the Sects.
Luo Ying sighed and said, "To put it bluntly, the Deathmatch Arena is a colosseum. It's something that has been popular in the Cultivation Realm for tens of thousands of years. In the beginning, it was just some bored Cultivators who caught some beasts and placed them on the arena. Then the beasts would bite each other to determine the winner. But slowly, the Cultivators began to feel that using beasts was meaningless. Cultivators began to fight each other on the Deathmatch Arena. Moreover, more and more people began to watch the arena. It's also a way to gamble."
Zhao Hai smiled bitterly. The more he heard about it, the more it sounded like the underground fights on Earth. However, in the Cultivation Realm, it was legal and reasonable.
Luo Ying looked at Zhao Hai and said, "In the beginning, as long as one was a Cultivator, they could participate in the Death Arena. Many disciples from the various Great Sects would participate and even issue challenges. However, this situation was later stopped by the Great Sects. This was because many geniuses from the Great Sects were crippled on the Death Arena. The Great Sects couldn't afford such a loss."
Zhao Hai nodded. The Great Sects were the same. Every Core Disciple was nurtured little by little. Naturally, they also needed to go out and test their strength. A lot of Core Disciples died during these tests. As long as a Core Disciple had an accident, the Great Sects would have wasted all their efforts. Even the Great Sects wouldn't be able to bear such a loss.
Moreover, it wasn't as simple as two cultivators starting a duel because of a disagreement. It was likely that the various great sects would use this opportunity to eradicate the geniuses of the other sect. However, they later discovered that this method would harm the enemy by a thousand, but would also harm themselves by eight hundred. If you used this method to deal with others, others would naturally use this method to deal with you. Thus, the various great sects stopped this kind of duel.
Luo Ying said, "The fights between the Great Sects' disciples have stopped, but the duel on the death-deciding stage didn't stop. The Great Martial Realm's disciples who were selected by the Great Sects slowly became unaccustomed to the development of the Great Sects. The disciples of the Great Sects were carefully nurtured, and their strength was very formidable. Their Cultivation Methods had also undergone many improvements and were getting better and better. However, the situation in the Cultivation World was different. The Cultivation World's development was also very fast, but it was still far behind the Cultivation World. The Great Sects' disciples who were selected from the Great Sects were much worse than the Great Sects' disciples. Therefore, the Great Sects' disciples who were selected from the Great Sects slowly became useless. It was a pity to throw them away, but it was useless to keep them."
When he heard Luo Ying, Zhao Hai already knew why he was called a Battle Slave. Sure enough, Luo Ying continued, "Later on, because the Death-Deciding Stage didn't allow the Great Sects' disciples to enter, the Great Sects began to send the Great Sects' disciples to the death-deciding stage. Then the Great Sects began to gamble. Finally, the Great Sects began to call the Great Sects' disciples as Battle Slaves."
Luo Ying sighed and said, "However, the major sects still have a bit of conscience. Although all the cultivators from the Lesser Martial Realm are battle slaves, as long as you can win 100 battles on the death-deciding platform, you can be accepted as an outer disciple of the sect. You can enjoy the same treatment as the outer disciples of the sect. If there is an opportunity in the future, you can be promoted to an inner disciple, a core disciple, or even an outer disciple of the sect. You can be considered a true member of the sect."
Zhao Hai looked at Luo Ying and said, "What's wrong? Aside from Outer Disciples, are there other Great Sects with lower status? "
Luo Ying replied, "Of course there are. Below the Outer Disciples, there are also janitor disciples. These janitor disciples are selected by the Great Sects to have talent, but they aren't geniuses. If they perform well, they can slowly be promoted to Outer Disciples. Strictly speaking, janitor disciples and Battle Slaves have the same status, but they aren't as dangerous as Battle Slaves."
