The spiritual qi in this place was almost twice as dense as in Yue Country. Cultivators would be able to cultivate at least thirty percent faster than in Yue Country.
Thirty percent might not seem much, but with the accumulation of time, the difference was like the difference between heaven and earth. A thousand years of cultivation in Jin was equivalent to a thousand and three hundred years of cultivation in Yue Country.
Three hundred years … If Yue Country's cultivators like Gui Qiaozi were born in Jin Country, they would have formed their Nascent Soul a long time ago!
With the accumulation of generations, the experts in a middle-grade cultivation country were far superior to those in a low-grade cultivation country. Even a Nascent Soul Realm old monster had the power to destroy a low-grade cultivation country.
The law of the Rain World dictated that the annihilation of a country would have to pay seventy percent of the income.
There were cultivators from other countries who came to Great Jin to cultivate after forming their Gold Core.
There were also experts who passed by Great Jin to borrow the Immemorial Teleportation Formation.
However, in these few years, the demon tide gradually rose, making it very dangerous to cultivate in Jin Country. The Immemorial Teleportation Formation would only be opened once a year.
There were still three months before the next opening.
In the past, the fee for borrowing the teleportation formation was one hundred thousand immortal jade per person. But recently, due to the King's order, it was changed to one hundred thousand battle points.
At the southern boundary of the State of Jin, a group of cultivators was led by a Golden Core cultivator into a cultivation city several hundred kilometers away.
This city was called Quwo City, one of the ten cities in Great Jin. It was where the Han Yi Sect was located.
The sect master of Han Yi Sect was called Jie Xiu. He was an Early Nascent Soul Realm cultivator. His other identity was one of the fourteen commanders under the King of Jin.
The King of Jin was rumored to be a Late Nascent Soul Realm cultivator. He was extremely powerful. There were eleven Nascent Soul Realm cultivators from the righteous and evil sects in Jin and three Nascent Soul Realm cultivators among the rogue cultivators, making a total of fourteen people under his command … He established the Cultivator Guard and commanded the fourteen Nascent Soul Realm commanders. Under his control, there were rarely any cultivators from other countries who dared to invade Great Jin.
Ning Fan felt a different atmosphere in Great Jin. It was something he had never felt in Wu Country and Yue Country.
Although Yue Country was called a country, the sects were independent. If Heavenly Dao Sect invaded, they would shrink back and not resist.
Only the Great Jin Dynasty is worthy of being called a cultivation country … The King of Jin will not interfere with the personal grudges of the sects. However, when the Great Jin Dynasty is in chaos, all the sects must work together and abandon all personal grudges to put the country first!
"The Great Jin can be considered as a cultivation country … As for the Han Yi Sect, hmm, it's not a bad sect …"
In Quwo City, Ning Fan was following a group of cultivators. His eyes fell upon each of the disciples of Han Yi Sect and he nodded slightly.
In the city, cultivators wearing plain clothes could be seen from time to time. Some of them even had patches on their clothes. In the world of cultivators, it was a rare sight. However, in this place, it was extremely common.
He was dressed simply and spent most of his time cultivating. He rarely showed extravagant behavior. This was a kind of tempering of one's mental state. It would allow the disciples of the Han Yi Sect to live a peaceful life … The one who proposed this mental state cultivation method was the founder of the Han Yi Sect, Jie Zitui …
Bing Ling, the other women and the Seven Apricot Voyage Ship were kept away by Ning Fan. Lady Yun Hua was also kept inside Jing Zhuo's' corpse bag '.
The three of them had followed the Jin Nation's Golden Core cultivators to Quwo City, all for the sake of obtaining permission to temporarily join the cultivation guard.
To enter the Primordial Teleportation Formation, one person needed 100,000 battle merits, and three people would need 300,000 battle merits.
The next opening of the formation would be three months later. If they missed this opportunity, they would have to wait for another year.
300,000 battle merits … He didn't know the specific criteria for obtaining battle merits, so he couldn't help but feel worried.
Yin Suqiu immediately noticed his frown and comforted him. "Will our 'Old Ancestor Zhou Ming' be worried too?"
"Worried. Very worried. I'm worried that Yun Kuang will snatch my 'Dao Companion' away. That would be troublesome …" Ning Fan teased. Yin Suqiu's face immediately turned red and she turned her head away in embarrassment.
To Jing Zhuo, it was his first time coming to Great Jin.
As for Quwo City's Old Ancestor Jie Xiu, he was the same as the other Gold Core Realm cultivators, hoping to pay him a visit.
A Nascent Soul Realm old monster could gain a lot of enlightenment just by talking to him for a few sentences.
The thirteen Gold Core Realm cultivators were all old monsters who were stopped from entering the realm. After some consideration, they agreed to join the Jin Nation's cultivation guard to assist in eliminating the demon tide.
After staying in the inn, the Jin Nation's Gold Core Realm cultivator said that three days later, a cultivator from Han Yi Sect would bring them to meet Jie Xiu.
When they thought about meeting Old Ancestor Jie Xiu three days later, all the Gold Core Realm cultivators were slightly excited.
After all, when ordinary Gold Core Realm cultivators joined the cultivation guard and came to Quwo, they would only be welcomed by the sect master of Han Yi Sect.
A Nascent Soul Realm old ancestor would personally receive them … All the Gold Core Realm cultivators knew that all of this was because of Zhou Ming …
This person was also a Nascent Soul Realm old ancestor!
Not in vain, not in vain! Wouldn't it be a waste of opportunity to meet two Nascent Soul Realm cultivators during this trip to Great Jin?
Ning Fan decided to play the role of 'Old Ancestor Zhou Ming' till the end.
He would offend Yun Kuang and expose his identity as soon as he entered Great Jin … Moreover, the commotion in Wei Country was too big. News of it could be heard even at the border of Great Jin. It would be hard to conceal his identity.
As for Ning Fan, he did not intend to conceal his true cultivation base. Joining the Cultivation Realm required a Gold Core Realm cultivation base. Using the Teleportation Formation mostly depended on one's appearance. It would be too troublesome to use his true cultivation base as a Half-Step Gold Core Realm cultivator. Using the Thought Concealing Art to change his Nascent Soul Qi and disguise himself as a Nascent Soul Realm expert would be much more convenient.
He had mastered teleportation and his spirit sense was at the Early Nascent Soul Realm. After consuming the Spirit Refining Grass from the two demonesses, his Sense Concealment Art would not be able to see through his cultivation base even if he was at the Mid Nascent Soul Realm, unless he was at the Late Nascent Soul Realm!
His current Concealing Art of Thought was enough to complete a small realm!
As a Nascent Soul cultivator, after joining the Cultivation Guard, they would be able to take on more difficult missions and obtain more military merits.
After checking into the inn, Ning Fan asked the cultivators in the inn and found out that the Jin Cultivation Guards were divided into two divisions – the Combat Division and the Defense Division.
The battalion was responsible for hunting yao. Only those with later stage jindan cultivation could join. The Department of Defense was responsible for defending the border cultivation cities. Ordinary Jindan were enough.
While the details were not known, it was rumored that the battle merits obtained by the Battalion were more than ten times that of the Garrison Battalion …
As such, it was much more convenient to disguise as a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator and join the Combat Division. Compared to having a Harmonious Spirit Realm cultivation base and Nascent Soul Realm cultivation base, it was much more convenient to attract people's attention.
The three days of waiting was considered as giving Ning Fan and the others time to rest and recuperate during their journey.
Jing Zhuo and Suqiu did not go out of their rooms. They were meditating and resting in their rooms. As for Ning Fan, he originally wanted to take a stroll in the city. However, thirteen other Gold Core Realm cultivators came to visit him one after another.
Old Ancestor Jie Xiu was a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator. Old Ancestor Zhou Ming was also a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator!
As a Gold Core Realm cultivator, talking to a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator would save at least a few years or even dozens of years of hard cultivation!
As the saying goes, one should not slap a smiling face. These Gold Core Realm cultivators came with gifts and Ning Fan did not want to chase them away.
A pot of tea and a Dao discussion made these Gold Core Realm cultivators feel satisfied and unsatisfied.
During the three days of Dao discussion, Ning Fan's words would often contain pearls and pearls, allowing the thirteen of them to more or less understand something.
When the thirteen of them raised their questions about the bottleneck, Ning Fan pondered for a moment and gave them an answer that was overjoyed.
There were even two or three of them who found it difficult to talk with Ning Fan halfway through … They realized that the bottleneck had loosened. If they did not break through now, they would miss the opportunity.
During the three days of Dao discussion, all the Gold Core Realm cultivators were convinced that Ning Fan was a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator. Other than Nascent Soul Realm old monsters, who else could break through the bottleneck of the Gold Core Realm with just a few words?
Ning Fan also gained a lot from the three days of Dao discussion. He had only been cultivating for a short period of time. He only relied on the Yin Yang Locket and the Immortal Emperor's memory.
He also gained a lot of insights from the Dao discussion with the old monsters. Moreover, these old monsters came from other countries. Whenever Ning Fan asked about the local conditions and customs, they would answer with fervor and assurance.
In terms of knowledge, Ning Fan had some understanding of the seven or eight low-ranked cultivation countries near Wei Country.
When Ning Fan was discussing the Dao, he always felt an early Nascent Soul Realm spirit sense probing him.
During the three days, that Nascent Soul Realm cultivator was always vigilant against him.
Ning Fan even guessed that the reason why he did not immediately accept the cultivation guards after entering Qu Wo was because of this person … This person was worried and wanted to probe his background.
Ning Fan did not expose all of these.
On the evening of the third day, after all the Gold Core Realm old monsters had left, Ning Fan leisurely sipped the fragrant tea and smiled.
"Fellow Daoist Jie Xiu, are you relieved after three days of observation?"
The spirit sense that probed him was slightly startled after hearing Ning Fan's words. Then, he chuckled.
"Fellow Daoist Zhou Ming, your spirit sense is stronger than this old Daoist. Sorry for my disrespect … However, Fellow Daoist Zhou Ming, do you think that you can do whatever you want in Wei Country in Jin just because you are stronger than this old Daoist? This old Daoist will not allow it and King Jin will not turn a blind eye to it!"
"Fellow Daoist Jie must be joking … I came to Great Jin only for the teleportation. Joining the cultivation guards is for military merits. I have no ulterior motives towards Great Jin. Fellow Daoist Jie, you can rest assured …"
"Hehe. That's great … This old Daoist will wait for you in Liang Bao Palace. If you really have no ulterior motives, this old Daoist will be very happy to introduce you to my Great Jin Cultivation Guards to help in eliminating the demon tide." That voice did not sound happy or angry. Then, the spirit sense was extinguished like a ball of cold fire.
Ning Fan's eyes narrowed.
This Jie Xiu has such a strange spirit sense technique … I can't underestimate him.
