On the wide streets of Wushang City, there was an endless stream of people and carriages. Most of the people were mortals, but there was also a considerable number of cultivators. Wushang City was more than ten times larger than Moonview City, the largest wandering cultivator city in the Moonview World. There were hundreds of thousands of cultivators here, and it was said that there were an unknown number of Nascent Soul cultivators here. These Nascent Soul cultivators came from the Grand Qi Kingdom, the Heavenly Martial Kingdom, and the Xiang Kingdom. Wushang City was the border between the three kingdoms, the Wushang Lake, and the Blacksky Mountain Range. The three kingdoms had fought several times in the past in an attempt to seize this ownerless land, but Wushang City wasn't something a single power could swallow. Often, when one side won, the other two kingdoms would join forces. Over time, the three kingdoms accepted this reality and began to jointly manage it.
At this moment, a young man wearing a green robe and a black cloth hat was wrapped around his head. He was sitting in a wine shop, holding a jade pot. He ordered a plate of spirit mutton and some spirit fruits from the Black Sky Mountain Range. He was drinking by himself. This person was Lu Xiaotian, who had left the Zhenwei Marquis Estate several months ago.
Several months ago, Lu Xiaotian had hidden in a dry well behind the Zhenwei Marquis Estate, evading the search of several Di Ghost Hounds. He stayed in the well for several days before coming out and escaping the estate. It was said that the Di Ghost Hounds had discovered the azure-robed elder who had chased him. The elder had a short fight with the Di Ghost Hounds and realized that he couldn't gain the upper hand, so he left early on. The Zhenwei Marquis Estate didn't send anyone to search the well. They only increased the security. After all, the well's passages were tangled and complicated. Even if they did send people in, they might not be able to find anything.
After staying in the well for several hours, Lu Xiaotian carefully left the well and escaped safely.
Lu Xiaotian had been staying in Wushang City for several months. The city was much larger than he had imagined. During these months, Lu Xiaotian had entered and exited Wushang City and understood what kind of place it was. It was completely different from the Moonview World or the Blue Devil Seas. This was a completely new continent, the Scarlet Abyss Continent.
There were many kingdoms on the Scarlet Abyss Continent. Unlike the cultivation world of the past, the kingdoms here were all founded by cultivators. Those who controlled the fate of a kingdom were also cultivators. Nascent Soul Grandmasters were still high and mighty. Usually, they did not care about worldly affairs. Most of the people who took care of worldly affairs were Jin Dan cultivators and Foundation Establishment cultivators. This was no different from the previous cultivation sects. After all, the Nascent Soul stage ancestors would go into seclusion for several years or even decades at a time. If they were to take care of the chores, who knew how long they would be delayed.
At first, Lu Xiaozai was a little surprised by the current situation of the Scarlet Abyss Continent, but after staying here for a long time, he became accustomed to it. The Scarlet Abyss Continent wasn't much different from the cultivation world of the past. The Full Moon Immortal Cultivation World used sects as its foundation. Here, it was just a different form. The sect was now a kingdom. But in reality, it was just a different soup. The only difference was that on the Scarlet Abyss Continent, cultivators were more common and mixed in with ordinary mortals. At the same time, ordinary mortals with low strength were at the bottom of the hierarchy and did some superficial work.
Back then, the Scarlet Abyss Continent was somewhat similar to the Moonview Immortal Cultivation World and the Blue Devil Seas. Various sects stood in great numbers and intersected with each other. There were also some ordinary mortal kingdoms.
Cultivation sects often fought over territory and spiritual items, and the ones who suffered were naturally the ordinary mortals. Every time there was a chaotic battle between cultivators, a great battle between cultivators would cause mountains to be moved, seas to be emptied, and the heavens to collapse. Every time there was a great battle, countless ordinary mortals would die tragically.
It was said that several hundred thousand years ago, among the ordinary mortals, a youth surnamed Qin obtained the mantle of a cultivator who had died in battle and stepped onto the path of cultivation. Ever since things got out of hand, the youth surnamed Qin hated the chaotic battles between cultivators because his family had been destroyed in the chaos of cultivators' battles. Relying on his heaven-defying aptitude, the youth surnamed Qin advanced all the way from Foundation Establishment to Core Formation to Nascent Soul in less than a hundred and twenty years, becoming the earliest cultivator to reach Nascent Soul in the history of the Scarlet Abyss Continent. At that time, the youth surnamed Qin didn't belong to any sect. At that time, all the cultivation sects were scrambling to rope him in, but the youth surnamed Qin refused their goodwill and chose to open his own mountain gate. Unexpectedly, he established his own kingdom and called it the State of Qin, calling himself the King of Qin.
The young and troubled King of Qin was determined to end the chaotic battles between the various sects on the Scarlet Abyss Continent, causing the common people to suffer.
Many cultivators with similar experiences as the youth surnamed Qin gathered under his banner and became the earliest founding fathers of the State of Qin. Since then, the State of Qin had stepped onto the path of hegemony. The youth surnamed Qin was no longer as immature as before. He became a true king and gathered the cultivators under his banner to form the Qin Army. He led the Qin Army to attack and annihilate all the sects and sects. All the sects and sects that fought against him were either forced to relocate, annexed, or completely annihilated.
The scale of the Qin Army continued to grow. Following the footsteps of the Qin Army, the State of Qin's territory also expanded at an astonishing speed.
In less than five hundred years, the number of sects and sects destroyed by the King of Qin numbered no less than a thousand. The Qin Army also continued to grow at a snowball's speed. The cultivation manuals of the various Sect and Sect were all stored in the State of Qin's library.
Later, the other sects on the Scarlet Abyss Continent began to form an alliance to destroy the Qin Army.
The Exterminating Qin Alliance and the Qin Army had been fighting fiercely for more than two hundred years. Following the King of Qin's seclusion for a hundred years, the Qin Army began to show signs of fatigue. Just as the Qin Army was about to collapse, the King of Qin came out of seclusion. At this time, the King of Qin had already broken through to the Divinity Transformation realm. A doppelganger controlled by a puppet directly killed dozens of late-stage Nascent Soul cultivators of the Exterminating Qin Army.
The Qin Annihilation Alliance is facing the possibility of collapse overnight. At this time, the Qin army and the Annihilation Qin army, as well as the army of Xiuxianists, number in the tens of millions. The collapse of either side will be a great catastrophe for the Xiuxianists.
The battle between the two alliances alarmed several Divinity Transformation cultivators who had been living in seclusion. They joined forces to put pressure on the King of Qin, wanting to resolve the conflict. However, the King of Qin's hands were stained with too much blood and his temperament began to become violent. Not only did the King of Qin, whose strength had advanced by leaps and bounds, not compromise, he fought several Divinity Transformation cultivators alone. That battle caused mountains and rivers to collapse and the sun and moon to dim. No one expected the King of Qin to be so powerful that he could fight several Divinity Transformation cultivators alone.
No one knew the outcome of that battle. In order to prevent the Qin Army and the Exterminating Qin Army from being affected, the Divinity Transformation cultivators retreated as they fought. Not long after, they could only faintly hear the sound of thunder in the distance.
The only thing they knew was that the King of Qin returned with serious injuries and the Divinity Transformation cultivators disappeared without a trace. Since then, the Exterminating Qin Army collapsed without a fight.
