In the yard.
Tai Qingzi was sitting cross-legged in the middle of the dilapidated Taoist temple, breathing in the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth.
He now spent a certain amount of time playing games every day.
The rest.
He cultivated in the Taoist temple to improve his cultivation.
At this moment.
All of a sudden, Tai Qingzi had an idea. When he opened his eyes, he saw that there was already another person outside the courtyard.
Seeing this scene.
Tai Qingzi looked calm, but his heart was uncontrollably shocked.
"Immeasurable Lord of Heaven, may I know who you are? Why did you suddenly come to my small Taoist temple?"
While speaking.
Tai Qingzi had been secretly sizing up the newcomer.
Since the Spiritual Qi Recovery, he had stepped into the Real Martial Arts Realm.
Now, his cultivation had reached the sixth level of the Real Martial Arts Realm, which was close to the physical invulnerability stage.
Even if Tai Qingzi didn't easily get involved in the mortal world, he knew that there were not many people in the world who were stronger than him.
But the person in front of him gave him a strange feeling.
He couldn't see through it.
He couldn't figure it out.
If he didn't see it with his eyes, he wouldn't even notice that there was a person standing here.
About this.
Tai Qingzi's heart skipped a beat, and his expression turned solemn.
Such an expert came to his place for no reason. He was definitely not just passing by.
"The sixth level of the Real Martial Arts Realm, the peak of the inner invulnerability stage. It's only been a year since the Spiritual Qi Recovery, but you've already reached such a level.
You're amazing, "the Blademaster said with a smile, cupping his hands.
Seeing this.
Tai Qingzi also got up, cupped his hands, and asked, "May I know where you're cultivating?"
This was a Taoist gesture.
Some people could do it, and some couldn't. But it was the first time he saw such a correct gesture like the Blademaster's.
Even he might not be able to do it as perfectly as the Blademaster.
The Blademaster said with a smile, "I'm just an ordinary individual cultivator. I came here to take a look because of the Spiritual Qi. I didn't expect to see you cultivating here."
"I'm Tai Qingzi. I haven't asked for your name."
"My name is a thing of the past. If you want a name, just call me Dao."
"Dao?"
Tai Qingzi frowned imperceptibly.
Such a name was a bit strange.
However, judging from the other party's appearance, he might also be an expert from some hidden sect.
These sects were secluded from the world all year round, so they were very different from ordinary people. It was normal for them to have strange names.
Tai Qingzi also felt relieved.
The swordmaster did not explain further. Instead, he took out a jade stone and threw it at Tai Qingzi.
The jade broke through the air.
His aura was quite astonishing.
Tai Qingzi's heart skipped a beat. He infused his energy into his palm and caught the jade stone.
Looking at the jade lying quietly in his palm, he frowned again.
"Brother, may I ask what this is?"
"This is the jade talisman of the Heavenly Alliance. You can make it recognize you as its owner by dripping your blood on it. You can communicate with other members of the Heavenly Alliance through the jade talisman. You can exchange for whatever you want as long as you can pay a sufficient price.
Similarly, if you help others to complete their missions, you can also get a corresponding reward.
In the Heaven Alliance, these are called Heaven Dao points. "
The Blademaster explained.
"Heavenly Alliance?"
Tai Qingzi looked puzzled and his heart turned heavy.
He had never heard of this name before.
"The Heavenly Alliance was founded by you. What's the purpose of this organization?"
If it were an ordinary person …
Tai Qingzi would have driven him away.
But the Blademaster was different.
He felt that the Blademaster was too powerful. In Tai Qingzi's opinion, the Blademaster was at least a Physical Invulnerability Realm Practitioner above the seventh level of the Martial Realm. It was even possible that he was above the True Martial Realm.
He would not offend such a strong person if he could.
Tai Qingzi was not afraid of death, but he did not want to die without knowing why.
Spiritual Qi had just recovered, and he was already a Practitioner at the sixth level of the Martial Realm. He had a chance to reach the Divine Martial Realm or even the Celestial Being Realm in the future.
The future was still bright.
He could not waste it.
The Blademaster said, "The Heavenly Alliance has existed since ancient times. No one knows who founded this organization. The purpose of the Heavenly Alliance is to provide a platform for Practitioners in the Cultivation World to communicate and help each other.
You have to understand that with the recovery of Spiritual Qi, we humans can enter the Cultivation World, and so can other things.
Besides, you only need to know that the recovery of Spiritual Qi is just the beginning. There are still many things waiting for us.
The purpose of the Heavenly Alliance's existence is to improve the overall strength of the human race as much as possible and cultivate strong Practitioners who can deal with future disasters. "
"Brother, do you mean that the recovery of Spiritual Qi is a disaster?"
Tai Qingzi's expression changed.
He had never heard of what the Blademaster just said.
However —
With the Blademaster's strength, there was no need to deceive him.
Unless he had a bigger purpose.
However, Tai Qingzi could not figure out what the Blademaster's purpose was.
Anyway …
The human race would really face a great disaster.
In the past, Tai Qingzi would not have believed such nonsense. But it was different now. The recovery of Spiritual Qi had caused many changes in the world. No one could tell whether these changes were good or bad.
"It's hard to say whether it's a blessing or a disaster, an opportunity or a disaster."
The Blademaster tried his best to fool him.
He did not care whether it was a disaster or not. He just said it as mysteriously as he could.
"If the human race is strong enough, what will appear in the future will be an opportunity. If the human race is not strong enough, what will appear in the future will be a disaster.
"There are some things that I can't tell you too much about now.
"If you can grow to that level one day, everything will be clear. It's meaningless to say too much before that."
Hearing that …
Tai Qingzi lowered his head slightly and fell into silence.
He could no longer tell whether the Blademaster was telling the truth or not.
And what kind of organization was the so-called Heavenly Alliance?
Had it really existed for a long time, or had it just been created?
It was hard to say.
Everything was hard to say.
Soon …
Tai Qingzi woke up from his thoughts. He looked up at the Blademaster and said, "Brother, why did you come to me?"
"I've already told you the reason. It's because you have the potential to become a top Practitioner."
The Blademaster put his hands behind his back and looked proud.
"Those who can join the Heavenly Alliance can't be mediocre. You can break through to the Physical Invulnerability Realm within a year of the recovery of Spiritual Qi. Your talent is not top-notch, but it's top-notch.
As long as you don't die in the future, it won't be a problem for you to reach the God Martial Arts Realm. You even have a 30% chance of becoming a Diviner.
"You should know that in the heyday of the Heavenly Alliance, only Diviners were real members. Those below Diviners were not qualified to come into contact with the Heavenly Alliance.
"Although the Heavenly Alliance has declined after the Dharma Ending Age, now that the Spiritual Qi has recovered, the Heavenly Alliance will eventually return to its former peak.
"If you didn't have the potential to break through to the Diviner Realm, I would never give you this Heavenly Alliance Jade Talisman."
After that …
A terrifying aura emanated from the Blademaster.
At that moment …
Tai Qingzi felt as if he was in a purgatory of knives. The pure and terrifying killing intent made his firm Taoist Heart tremble a few times.
But very quickly, this feeling disappeared.
However, at that moment …
Tai Qingzi's expression changed.
If he had suspected that the Blademaster might be an expert above the True Martial Realm, he was now sure that the Blademaster's strength had reached the Spiritual Martial Realm.
As for whether it would be higher …
Tai Qingzi wasn't so sure.
The Blademaster knew that the strongest person in the real world would not enter the Spiritual Martial Realm, but Tai Qingzi did not know that.
After all, there were so many cultivators in the world.
It was possible that some of them had been hiding in the mountains and forests, and had silently cultivated to an unfathomable level.
In Tai Qingzi's opinion …
He could cultivate to the sixth level of the True Martial Realm. It was not impossible for those geniuses or the older generation experts in the Dharma Ending Age to break through to a terrifying level while the Spiritual Qi was recovering.
He ignored Tai Qingzi's thoughts.
The aura he had just released had a deterrent effect.
At least …
In the Blademaster's opinion, he had already created a mysterious and powerful image in Tai Qingzi's mind.
"I've already said that the Heavenly Alliance Jade Talisman will only be given to the destined one. I hope you cherish it."
After the Blademaster finished speaking, he took a step forward and disappeared from the courtyard.
Seeing this scene …
Tai Qingzi's pupils shrank again.
"Distance Shrinking!"
"So Close, Yet So Far!"
He was not sure what method the Blademaster had used.
However …
Tai Qingzi was sure that the Blademaster must be an expert who lived in seclusion.
Thinking of this …
He looked at the jade stone in his hand.
The Heavenly Alliance Jade Talisman!
Normally, the most appropriate way to deal with an unknown object was to throw it away.
However …
Tai Qingzi thought of the Blademaster's method and what he had said. He hesitated again.
It was easy to throw away the Heavenly Alliance Jade Talisman.
However, it would be a big deal if he missed an opportunity because of this.
Moreover …
What really made Tai Qingzi hesitate was the great calamity that the Blademaster had mentioned.
"Is the Spiritual Qi recovery really a calamity?"
Tai Qingzi's expression changed again and again.
If the recovery of Spirit Qi was a disaster, then would it be a disaster when the world fell into the Age of Dharma Ending?
Or …
The Dharma Ending Age was not a calamity but a means of self-protection.
For a moment …
Tai Qingzi thought of many things.
He felt that he seemed to have come into contact with some kind of truth. However, there was a thick fog in front of him that blocked his vision.
He wanted to dispel the fog.
However, he could not dispel it.
In the end …
Tai Qingzi looked back at the Heavenly Alliance Jade Talisman in his hand. After hesitating for a while, he bit his left index finger and smeared a drop of blood on it.
The blood fell on the Heavenly Alliance Jade Talisman.
It immediately seeped into the talisman like water touching soil.
Then …
A faintly discernible connection appeared in his mind.
Tai Qingzi pressed the Heavenly Alliance Jade Talisman against his forehead. A huge amount of information appeared in his mind.
Heavenly Alliance Jade Talisman!
Heavenly Path Points!
He could accept corresponding missions to earn Heavenly Path Points. Heavenly Path Points could be used to exchange for resources, including cultivation methods, elixirs, and even weapons.
Apart from that …
If the Heavenly Alliance members had corresponding information, they could also communicate in the Heavenly Alliance chat group.
Heavenly Alliance chat group?
When Tai Qingzi saw the words, he took down the Heavenly Alliance Jade Talisman and was dumbfounded.
"The Heavenly Alliance is keeping up with the times."
The chat group had even appeared. How could they not keep up with the times?
However, although he was speechless …
Tai Qingzi was still surprised by these methods. At the same time, he was deeply afraid of the Heavenly Alliance's existence.
After a short period of shock …
He pressed the Heavenly Alliance Jade Talisman against his forehead again.
There were a total of three interfaces in the Heavenly Alliance Jade Talisman. One was a mission interface, one was an exchange interface, and one was a chat group interface.
First was the mission interface.
There were not many missions in the mission interface. There were only a few in total. However, Tai Qingzi was shocked when he saw the mission content.
Mission 1: Seek a Yin Yang Nine Rotation Mixed Energy Elixir (Level 9 elixir pill). Mission Reward: 100,000 Heavenly Path Points.
Mission 2: Kill a ferocious beast in the Ancient Land. Its strength is suspected to be around the third level of the Heaven Human Realm. Mission Reward: 500,000 Heavenly Path Points.
Mission 3: Seek help from a senior to break through the God Martial Arts Realm. Mission Reward: 10,000 Heavenly Path Points.
Mission 4: Seek Tianluo Star Iron. Mission Reward: 20,000 Heavenly Path Points.
— —
There were a total of thirteen missions, but each of them left Tai Qingzi dumbfounded.
He did not know what the Yin Yang Nine Rotation Mixed Energy Elixir was. However, the Level 9 elixir pill at the end made him understand how precious it was.
There was also something about killing a ferocious beast in the Ancient Land and being at the third level of the Heaven Human Realm.
"What Ancient Land? Is there a place called the Ancient Land in this world that even has ferocious beasts at the third level of the Heaven Human Realm?" Tai Qingzi was completely stunned.
He suddenly realized something.
The world had become so strange.
Among the thirteen missions, none of them were easy.
Before he got the Heavenly Alliance Jade Token, he thought he was strong enough.
But now.
Tai Qingzi, on the other hand, realized that he was really weak.
There were so many unknown things in this world.
"Calamity!"
For some reason, Tai Qingzi thought of this word again.
He looked at the missions above.
Although he had some doubts in his heart, he did not suspect too much.
The Heavenly Alliance Jade Token was already very unusual.
He suppressed the shock in his heart.
Tai Qingzi exited the mission area and went to the exchange area.
It was also divided into several sections.
There were mainly six sections, including cultivation methods, martial arts, elixir pills, divine weapons, precious armors, and tools.
Tai Qingzi browsed through them one by one and then exited with a dull look.
During this day.
He had been shocked too many times and became a little numb.
Finally.
Then, Tai Qingzi entered the chat group.
"Please set a nickname for your name!"
A prompt appeared in his mind.
Tai Qingzi instinctively wanted to use his Taoist name as a nickname.
But he did not know why.
He paused when he was about to set it.
Then.
He typed a few words and then chose to confirm.
Then, the image changed again.
A more modern chat window appeared in Tai Qingzi's mind.
There was another prompt.
Little Taoist joined the group chat!
Nine Heavens Immortal Emperor: Welcome newcomer!
Boundless Holy Man: Another newcomer, not bad!
Xue Sha: Welcome!
Darkness Emissary: Welcome!
Then, there was a row of welcome words.
"There are so many people!" Tai Qingzi looked at the constantly refreshed chat history and was stunned.
He knew that the Heavenly Alliance was not simple, but he was still surprised when he saw so many people.
However, when he saw the nickname, his expression became strange again.
Nine Heavens Immortal Emperor!
Boundless Holy Man!
These people were really good at bragging.
He looked at his nickname, Little Taoist. It seemed too low-key.
Just when Tai Qingzi was about to send a message.
Boundless Holy Man: Brother Jiutian, I heard that an ancient beast appeared on your side. How have you been? Has it been resolved?
Jiutian Immortal Emperor: Sigh, if it had been resolved, I would have canceled the mission long ago. Let it be arrogant for now. I will become a Heavenly Being in two days. I will kill it then!
Mouth of Darkness: Pfft, Jiutian, can you do it? Don't ask us to collect your corpse after you are killed by the beast.
Jiutian Immortal Emperor: Shut your dog mouth. I will go over and smash your dog head. If it were not for the decline of my strength, I would not have allowed a small beast to behave so atrociously.
Jiutian Immortal Emperor: Now that the Spiritual Qi has recovered, my strength will recover quickly. I will kill it in two days.
Mouth of Darkness: Keep bragging. I will become a Heavenly Being soon. Do you want me to go over and help?
Jiutian Immortal Emperor: Get lost!
Xue Sha: Stop arguing. I think Jiutian will have no problem dealing with the beast. Let's cancel the mission. It seems that a Holy Land will appear in a month's time in the Great Holy Region. Do you want to go and take a look?
Mouth of Darkness: Are there any restrictions on the appearance of a Holy Land?
Xue Sha: There should be some restrictions, but they are not big. Those below Heavenly Being able to enter.
Little Daoist: …
Tai Qingzi mechanically sent a message and then fell into silence.
At this moment.
There was only a big 'F * ck' in his heart.
He originally thought that the other party came up with these nicknames casually to scare people.
But looking at those chat records, he realized that it did not seem to be the case.
What about breaking through to Heavenly Being?
What about the decline of strength due to the decline of thousands of years?
What about the Great Holy Region and the appearance of a Holy Land?
These words all revealed the aura of a big shot.
"Could it be that these people are really hidden powerhouses, or existences before the Age of Chaos?"
Tai Qingzi was shocked by the thought that emerged in his mind.
It had been thousands of years since the Age of Chaos.
If that was the case, then what level of existences were these people at?
He was suspicious.
But after looking at the chat records, Tai Qingzi fell silent again.
At this time, in the chat group, after Xue Sha revealed the news of the Holy Land, many people had already joined in the conversation.
There was no lack of big shots among them, as well as some questions from newbies.
Seeing this.
Tai Qingzi could not help but send a message.
Little Daoist: Big shots, may I ask what the Holy Land is?
Boundless Holy Man: Oh, so it's a newbie. Usually, this kind of question requires Heavenly Dao points. But seeing that you just came, you probably don't have much to gain, so I'll tell you for free.
Little Daoist: Thank you, Dao Master.
Boundless Holy Man: The so-called Holy Land is a secret realm created by powerhouses above the Diviner level. But with the advent of the Age of Chaos, many Holy Lands have sealed themselves off, waiting for the spiritual energy to recover before they reappear.
Boundless Holy Man: In addition to abundant spiritual energy, there are also some precious treasures in the Holy Land. If you're lucky, you can also obtain some cultivation techniques. But generally, for safety, the Holy Land will have some restrictions.
Boundless Holy Man: For example, it restricts powerhouses above the Diviner level from entering, to prevent the Holy Land from exploding when fighting.
Little Daoist: So it's like this. Thank you for your explanation.
Boundless Holy Man: What level are you?
Little Daoist: True Martial Stage Six.
Boundless Holy Man: …
A series of ellipses.
Tai Qingzi saw a strong sense of disdain in them.
Suddenly.
He fell silent.
Tai Qingzi was no longer proud of his strength at the sixth level of the Martial Realm.
Because just a few seconds ago, he had been despised by someone.
Soon.
Tai Qingzi calmed himself down and immediately took advantage of his newbie's advantage to ask all kinds of questions.
He gained a lot in an instant.
On the other side.
After Tai Qingzi dripped his blood to become his Master, the Blademaster sensed it.
"As expected, no one can resist the temptation of opportunity."
The Blademaster shook his head and laughed.
Then, he took out a Heavenly Dao Jade Talisman and placed his Divine Thought on it.
After a long while.
The Blademaster was speechless.
Because he found that the person he had just fooled had a lot of questions.
He thought that the other party would keep a low profile since he was so old, but the truth was completely opposite.
"It's okay. Let's chat if you want. I have many alt accounts, so I'll chat with you slowly."
Soon, the Blademaster collected himself and continued on his way while answering Tai Qingzi's questions with all kinds of alt accounts.
Now, only a piece of the Heavenly Alliance Jade Talisman had been distributed, so it didn't have much effect.
Although the Heavenly Alliance was just something he made up.
But to be honest, the Blademaster had his real purpose for creating the Heavenly Alliance.
In the following period of time.
Every time the Blademaster went to a place, he would give a Heavenly Alliance Jade Talisman to a True Martial Realm cultivator who had some cultivation. Then, he would use the same trick he used on Tai Qingzi to trick others.
In less than half a month.
Dozens of people appeared in the Heavenly Alliance chat group.
Like Tai Qingzi, these people were the Cultivators the Blademaster had fooled.
However.
He had a requirement for the people he chose.
They had to at least break through to the True Martial Realm, but not the Physical Invulnerability Realm.
In general.
Among these dozens of people, the lowest cultivation was Lv 1 of the True Martial Realm, and the highest was Lv 6 of the True Martial Realm.
As for those with higher cultivation, they would easily attract the attention of the Heavenly Dao. The Blademaster wasn't ready to expose himself yet.
As more and more people appeared in the Heavenly Alliance chat group.
Most of the time, these newcomers were chatting with each other.
In this way, the Blademaster had a lot of free time. He didn't need to use a bunch of alt accounts to chat with one or two people and liven up the atmosphere of the chat group.
Now, he only needed to let a few of the big shots' smurfs appear once in a while and chat casually.
