Dry door.
Qin Xin also quickly stepped forward.
Because of his identity as a member of the Kunmen Peak, Qin Xin easily gained entry into the sect.
The two doormen guarding the entrance only reminded Qin Xin that he needed to leave within half a day, and he was naturally aware of this.
Within this gate, the area is quite spacious, with many mountain peaks standing tall, the mountain range stretching endlessly, the spiritual energy extremely rich, and shrouded in a thick mist, it is filled with a sense of mystery.
However, there seemed to be relatively few disciples in the Gan Sect. Qin Xin rarely saw any other disciples along his journey.
Although the number of disciples in the Gan Sect is small, they are all extremely talented individuals within the inner courtyard. This is mainly because the Gan Sect has very strict requirements for its disciples. Every so often, all disciples will be tested, and those who fail will be expelled. In order to enter the Kun Sect, in addition to the random selection when entering the inner courtyard, disciples from the other seven sects in the inner courtyard can also challenge disciples from the Gan Sect. Those who win the challenge can join, while those who lose will be expelled.
Although this system is somewhat cruel, it ensures the formidable strength of the Ganmen.
After arriving at a relatively high mountain peak, Qin Xin slowed down.
The moment Qin Xin arrived, the people on the mountaintop seemed to sense it, and the mountain gate slowly opened, allowing Qin Xin to step inside.
Upon entering the peak, Qin Xin immediately sensed the difference.
The entire mountain peak emanated a scorching heat, as if there were a fiery vein beneath its base.
As Qin Xin walked towards the summit, he saw many caves along the way, all belonging to people who wanted to become Huo Sheng's disciples.
As the only seventh-grade alchemist in the Eastern Wilderness, Huo Sheng's status and influence are self-evident.
When Qin Xin entered, many people noticed him and speculated about his identity. However, those who were invited by Huo Sheng must be scions of powerful families, so no one dared to make things difficult for him, for fear of offending someone they couldn't afford to provoke.
Qin Xin was happy to do so, and traveled smoothly all the way to the summit.
The buildings atop the peak were very simple, with a large medicinal field planted with many rare spiritual herbs, which tempted Qin Xin for a moment.
Two young apprentices who were busy in the medicinal field saw Qin Xin and hurriedly came over, trying to stop him.
Seeing the two apprentice doctors looking nervous, Qin Xin quickly glanced at his feet.
At his feet was a spiritual herb, and if it weren't for the anxious look on the young apprentice's face, Qin Xin would probably have already rushed over.
"It's just a fourth-grade spiritual herb, it's fine, Qin Xin, come here."
After Huo Sheng's voice suddenly came, the two medicine boys stopped and continued tending to the medicinal field.
Qin Xin looked in the direction of the sound and saw Huo Sheng, dressed like a farmer, wearing a straw hat and clearing weeds from the medicinal herb field.
Qin Xin was somewhat surprised by Huo Sheng's demeanor; he hadn't expected such a powerful figure to be so easygoing.
Qin Xin dodged the spiritual herbs under his feet to avoid stepping on them and quickly arrived in front of Huo Sheng.
Huo Sheng then led Qin Xin into a nearby thatched hut and poured him a cup of tea.
After taking a small sip, Qin Xin discovered that this tea was quite extraordinary. A powerful spiritual energy spread through his mouth, and a refreshing sensation flowed throughout his body.
"This tea..." Qin Xin, regaining his senses, held the cup of tea in his hand, his eyes filled with surprise.
Seeing Qin Xin's expression, Huo Sheng chuckled and said, "This tea is quite good, isn't it? Why don't you become my disciple and you can enjoy tea like this every day?"
Hearing Huo Sheng's tempting words, Qin Xin shook his head slightly, took another sip, and said, "Thank you for your kindness, senior, but drinking too much of this tea doesn't seem to be a good thing."
"Oh? Not bad, kid. You can even sense this." Huo Sheng didn't expect Qin Xin to be able to discover the secret in this tea. He nodded and said, "That's right. This tea is actually no different from pills. Excessive consumption will lead to pill poisoning, which will hinder a martial artist's future cultivation."
Qin Xin was only guessing, but he didn't expect to be right. So he just smiled and didn't say anything.
After finishing his cup of tea in one gulp, Huo Sheng's aged eyes were filled with enjoyment as he leisurely said, "The Inner Domain has already opened. Every year, many disciples who enter it never return. You can still back out now."
“Senior, now that I’ve come this far, I naturally won’t regret it,” Qin Xin said firmly.
Seeing the unwavering look in Qin Xin's eyes, Huo Sheng paused for a moment before taking out a scroll and handing it to Qin Xin. "This is a map of the inner region. The red dots mark the locations of the Dragonwood."
Qin Xin held the scroll, and a map appeared in his mind, marked with many signs, seemingly indicating the locations where treasures and spiritual herbs were discovered.
In a short while, Qin Xin finally memorized the map information in the scroll. He opened his eyes, and the scroll in his hand instantly turned into a wisp of smoke, which dissipated with the wind.
Seeing that Qin Xin had memorized the map, Huo Sheng continued, "This inner region is a self-contained space, and the Eastern Wilderness Academy was established precisely because of the special nature of this inner region."
“Every time the Inner Domain opens, not only will disciples from the Eastern Wilderness Academy enter, but disciples from the Hundred Flowers Pavilion and the Spirit Beast Sect will also enter. In addition to the inherent dangers, there will also be many conflicts. This is why many disciples perish every time the Inner Domain opens.”
Upon hearing Huo Sheng's description of this inner region, Qin Xin had some questions and immediately asked, "Why not send some powerful experts in? Wouldn't that save a lot of danger?"
Upon hearing this, Huo Sheng chuckled and said, "Of course I've had that thought, but the space within that inner domain is unstable. If a powerful person were to enter, it might collapse directly. Therefore, the Dean has also set up restrictions in this inner domain, so any martial artist whose strength exceeds the Qi Sea Realm cannot enter."
Qin Xin nodded gently, a weight lifted from his heart.
As an elder of the inner court, Han Sui now likely considers him the murderer of Han Yao. If Han Sui is allowed to enter this inner domain, he will likely be in danger as well.
Because in the inner domain, unlike in the inner academy, if someone attacks a fellow disciple, the punishment hall will punish them.
After explaining some precautions for entering the inner region to Qin Xin, Huo Sheng led him away from the Gan Sect.
In other parts of the inner courtyard, many elders were also instructing disciples about matters concerning the inner domain, including some things that these people desired.
