Chapter 19 Hello, Air Charge.jpg Socialist Blitz...
Wangxianzhou, a restaurant.
"I heard that a demon appeared in Dongjingzhou and killed the son of the Tianyan Sect's leader, and also killed several Yuanying disciples of the Xuanxiao Xianzong. Is this true?"
"It's true. My friend is in the Xuanxiao Immortal Sect. He told me that the team led by the sect master's direct disciple had a total of eight Yuanying and one Jindan. Except for him, all of them were killed. What's even more shocking is that the demon's cultivation level is only Jindan."
"What? Golden Core Realm? How is that possible? He must be using some secret treasure to conceal his cultivation level!"
The friend, a cultivator from Xuanxiao Xianzong, said categorically, "No, it is indeed the Jindan realm. It was the Jindan realm that killed eight Yuanying disciples of Xuanxiao Xianzong and captured a Jindan alive."
"The Xuanxiao Immortal Sect's disciples are too low-level. They can't even defeat a Jindan Realm cultivator! This really disgraces the reputation of our Wangxian Continent cultivators."
"Hey, you can't say that nonsense. Xuanxiao Immortal Sect is the most prominent immortal sect in our Wangxian Continent. It takes a lot of effort for us casual cultivators to cultivate to the Golden Core stage, but Xuanxiao Immortal Sect has no shortage of Golden Core disciples. Every year, one or two disciples can even advance to the Nascent Soul stage. The foundation of this sect is extraordinary."
"Oh? Xuanxiao Immortal Sect is so powerful?" A pleasant voice came, and the cultivators paused. For the first time, they knew what it meant to hear the music of heaven and could not help but turn their heads to look. They saw a man in black with a ghost mask sitting leisurely at another table, with a cold and intimidating aura.
Along with the news of the deaths of eight Nascent Soul cultivators from the Xuanxiao Immortal Sect, rumors of the Ghost-Faced Monk had spread throughout Wangxianzhou, and his fame had skyrocketed. Consequently, many admiring wandering cultivators adopted the Ghost-Faced Monk's attire. Walking down a street, you'd see many cultivators wearing ghost masks and black clothing.
Therefore, when Xie Xiyi arrived at Wangxianzhou, he was not very conspicuous.
The cultivators didn't pay much attention to his attire. Seeing that he was also at the Jindan realm, they struck up a conversation with him as an equal. "That's right. Xuanxiao Immortal Sect is the largest immortal sect in Wangxian Continent. Its leader, Taixuzi, is the leader of the Immortal Alliance, commanding the cultivators of the three continents. If we weren't broke, we'd definitely join the Immortal Alliance and get a job there."
Xie Xiyi humbly asked, "What is the Immortal Alliance? Do I have to pay to join it?"
The cultivator said, "The Immortal Alliance is... well, it's hard to explain. Anyway, Dongjingzhou, Wangxianzhou, and the Savage Land are all under the jurisdiction of the Immortal Alliance. You know mortals, right? They have dynasties, emperors, and the saying 'All under heaven belongs to the king.' We cultivators have the same idea. The leader of the Immortal Alliance is the emperor of cultivators."
"As for paying, we're independent cultivators, and independent cultivators can't join their prestigious sects. But the Immortal Alliance recruits cultivators from all over the world. As long as you pay, you can join. They also provide spiritual stones, elixirs and other cultivation resources every month. However, you have to obey their orders, which has both advantages and disadvantages. If you get bullied in the future, you can also use the Immortal Alliance flag to scare them. Overall, the benefits outweigh the disadvantages."
Xie Xiyi seemed to be thinking about something, and couldn't help but clapped his hands and laughed, "It seems that he is a master with a large family and a lot of wealth. He is the leader of the Immortal Sect and the leader of the Immortal Alliance. I am really envious."
"Why are you envious? It's useless to envy him. The Xuanxiao Immortal Sect's Sect Master has already reached the stage of transcending tribulation. He's only half a step away from ascending to the Immortal Realm. Moreover, he has extraordinary talent. He's only over 600 years old!"
"Six hundred years old, I can't even dream of such a beautiful life."
"I'm over 500 years old, and I'm only at the third level of the Golden Core. Comparing myself to others is really frustrating!"
These monks were all acquaintances, so they knew each other's ages clearly. One of them looked at Xie Xiyi and asked him curiously, "Brother, how old are you this year?"
Xie Xiyi laughed, "As for me, I'm 26 years old."
"What? 26-year-old Jindan??"
When Xie Xiyi said this, everyone was shocked. "Is this true? Lying about your age is pointless. We are all casual cultivators, so who doesn't know who?"
"Even among the second generation of immortals, who have been blessed with countless heavenly materials and treasures, it is rare to achieve a golden elixir at the age of 26. Brother, you are exaggerating."
Xie Xiyi: "Is it true that you can feel your bone age? But, do you dare to do it?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a black mist appeared on his body, and the air seemed to distort for a moment. A golden light flashed out, and Xie Xiyi, holding the spine sword in his hand, spoke again in a gentle tone: "Do you dare?"
The whole room was silent. By now, the Ghost-Faced Monk's attire and weapons were no longer a secret. Although they had been forgotten just now, now that the weapons were revealed, everyone recognized that this was the real boss.
The monks wanted to escape immediately, and Xie Xiyi did not stop them.
In an instant, he was the only customer left in the restaurant.
Xie Xiyi poured the wine. The wine in the white jade cup was golden in color and had a rich aroma, but to his five senses, it just smelled awful.
He called the trembling restaurant owner over and asked with a smile, "Is this the best wine in your store?"
The restaurant owner said tremblingly: "Sir, yes, this is the best-selling Qianshan Niang in our store."
Xie Xiyi asked, "Did you brew it yourself?"
The restaurant owner sweatdropped. "We brewed the original liquor from the Immortal Alliance, and then added spiritual spring water according to the proportion. Don't worry, sir, there is absolutely no problem with this liquor. It can improve one's aptitude and foundation, but the effect is very mild. It requires long-term and large-scale drinking to be effective."
Xie Xiyi: "Original juice, do you have it?"
He asked in a gentle tone, but the restaurant owner felt a chill run down his spine and stammered, "Yes, yes! A batch of raw juice just arrived not long ago. I'll give it to you, sir!"
Xie Xiyi smiled and said, "Take me to see it."
The restaurant owner immediately took him to the kitchen to see the raw juice.
It was a pot of golden liquid, with an amber glow under the light. The color was extremely rich, somewhere between honey and aged maple syrup, and it exuded a rich aroma.
The boss's face showed an intoxicated expression. He said: "This tripod of raw liquor is worth 56 top-grade spirit stones, which can be used to make 400 to 500 jars of Qianshan wine. The eight major immortal sects are all our customers——"
When he said this, the intoxication on his face turned into heartache, "Sir, this cauldron of puree is for you."
Wangxianzhou can become a big restaurant, naturally it has the Immortal Alliance as its backing, but the restaurant owner dare not raise the banner of the Immortal Alliance at this time. You must know that Xie Xiyi killed eight Yuanyings of Xuanxiao Immortal Sect and seriously injured the direct disciple of the Immortal Alliance leader. He dare not be arrogant and only wants to use this tripod of raw juice to ask Xie Xiyi to show mercy and let him go.
Xie Xiyi stretched out his hand, and the black mist enveloped his pale hand. The small tripod flew into his hand, and he lowered his head slightly. Even though the fragrance was awful, he still took a deep sniff. His eyes behind the mask moistened for no apparent reason, and for a moment, an extremely hot emotion surged up—and then quickly dissipated.
A monk without a heart cannot even produce strong emotions, but Xie Xiyi has always adapted well to this.
The spine sword in his hand was humming extremely. Xie Xiyi laughed and asked, "Do you like it?"
The spine sword pulled his arm and knocked the cauldron's original juice out. Xie Xiyi said thoughtfully: "Oh, so you don't like it."
He walked over, holding the spine sword in his hand, and split the small tripod in half. The golden and dazzling juice flowed out, and as soon as it touched the ground, it instantly melted and disappeared without a trace in a moment.
"My raw juice!" The boss screamed, and his head was quickly chopped off by Xie Xiyi.
Xie Xiyi whispered softly: "I don't like it either."
He laughed again, humming his favorite tune, and said in a cheerful tone, "Let's do something happy. I'm really jealous of Xuanxiao Immortal Sect, its profound foundation, and its grandeur."

The news that Xie Xiyi came to Wangxianzhou spread quickly.
Yan Dongchen also heard the news. He immediately went to see Uncle Qingxuan, but Qingxuan did not see him.
Yan Dongchen felt disappointed, but he also knew that he had completely lost face. Not only did his fellow apprentices no longer obey him, but even his master avoided him.
And all this was caused by Xie Xiyi. He was only at the Golden Core Realm, but he was like this... Yan Dongchen was unwilling to admit it. He made people feel scared.
As a Nascent Soul cultivator, he felt a deep fear of a Golden Core cultivator.
Yan Dongchen returned to his cave in a daze, but saw a familiar face on the way. His handsome face showed an expression of surprise and astonishment, "Junior Brother Chen, you are not dead?"
The person who came was the Jindan realm disciple who was captured alive by Xie Xiyi.
The Jindan realm disciple smiled slightly, his mouth opening and closing, "You were too slow to call for help, so I came here myself."
Yan Dongchen was stunned, his feet felt cold, and he suddenly drew out his magic sword and beheaded him at lightning speed.
"Brother Yan—Brother Yan, what are you doing?"
Unfortunately, he was caught by other disciples slaughtering his fellow disciples. He had just come out of the Law Enforcement Hall and now he was back in.
At the same time, Immortal Lord Qingxuan received a report from the elder of the Law Enforcement Hall. He said calmly, "This matter will be handled according to the sect's rules. No mercy is required."
The elder was surprised. "But he was just a Jindan disciple, and he was captured alive by that demon. He sneaked through the mountain protection formation. I'm afraid..."
Before the elder could finish his words, Qingxuan Immortal Monarch interrupted him and said, "Even if this disciple is suspicious, Yan Dongchen has already fallen into inferiority by beheading him in public. I can make the decision on this matter for the Sect Master. I will handle it according to the sect rules. I will do it immediately."
The elder suddenly realized and quietly withdrew.
As soon as they left, Taixuzi's message arrived, "Xie Xiyi has arrived at Wangxianzhou. This is quite unexpected."
Qingxuan Immortal Lord said, "Brother, the five hundred year old dream is about to come true. The closer we get to this point, the more cautious we must be. We must not underestimate the enemy."
Taixuzi said disdainfully, "Junior brother, I am now in the stage of transcending tribulation, and I am only one step away from ascending to the immortal realm. Perhaps Xie Xiyi has some opportunities, but he is only in the Golden Core Realm after all. He can kill eight Yuanyings, but he may not be able to deal with the stage of transcending tribulation."
Seeing that Taixuzi was determined to do what he wanted, Qingxuan Immortal Lord did not try to dissuade him. He simply said, "Jin Yuanzi...?"
Taixuzi said, "The cycle he deduced is half a month."
Qingxuan Immortal Lord said: "It's shorter than I imagined."
Taixuzi smiled and said, "After all, he's only at the Jindan stage, a mere insect. He's lucky to have half a month's worth of memories. I'll go meet him."

Chi Yu finally arrived at Wangxian Island, but was stopped by a group of monks in uniform. "Senior brother, please hand over the gold."
Chi Yu was confused, "What?"
The monk said patiently, "Luo Jin, this is your first time in Wangxianzhou, right? There's a fee for entry to Wangxianzhou. How long do you plan to stay?"
Chi Yu: "...maybe a few days?"
The monk said, "I'll give you three days, and you have to pay three medium-grade spirit stones."
Chi Yu: "??"
Come and pay 30,000 yuan in three days?
He said in disbelief, "Three mid-grade spirit stones? I only need two low-grade spirit stones to stay at the restaurant! You're robbing me!"
The cultivator remained good-tempered. "This is the rule. Brother, please pay the gold. Otherwise, it will be considered as sneaking across the border, and our Immortal Alliance has the right to expel you."
Chi Yu hesitated for a second, then finally said, "Okay, I'll stay for one day! I'll leave tomorrow!"
The monk said, "That's a medium-grade spirit stone."
Chi Yu: "..."
That’s also 10,000 yuan!
Chi Yu angrily paid the money and received a time-stamped pass. After the group of monks left, he asked Ling Hezhou, "Is this your Wangxian Continent? They're robbing me!"
Ling Hezhou: "Well, the Immortal Alliance has always followed this rule, but haven't you noticed? The spiritual energy in Wangxianzhou is much richer than that in Dongjingzhou."
Chi Yu: "..."
Hello, air charges.jpg
Chi Yu was very confused. "But spiritual energy is something everyone possesses, right? Why would the Immortal Alliance charge for it?"
Ling Hezhou felt puzzled, "Because the Immortal Alliance governs the three continents, it has always been like this."
Chi Yu: "."
The person who modified "Shen Tu" comes out and I'll beat him to death!
Ling Tian advised, "Young friend, don't be angry. My junior brother's belongings are more than enough for you to squander."
Chi Yu ignored him, muttering to himself, "Capital came into the world, from head to toe, every pore dripping with blood and filth."
"Hang the street lamp! Hurry and hang the street lamp for me!"
"Watch my socialist blitzkrieg against the world of cultivation!"
“Socialism is the best!”
Ling Hezhou: "..."
Ling Tian: “…”
He was mumbling something, and I couldn't understand what he was saying at all.
