Chapter 40 The Origin of Shanhaisi
Luocheng, East District, Ping'an Noodle House
"hiss……"
Lu Chen felt severe pain in his body and woke up from his coma.
"Are you awake? Come and eat something first."
Lu Chen turned his head and saw Uncle Tian coming to the bed with a bowl of noodle soup.
Feeling the hunger coming from his stomach, Lu Chen took the noodle soup handed to him by Uncle Tian and asked, "Uncle Tian, how long have I been unconscious?"
"Three days. Fortunately, you have practiced hard and your body is in good shape. You will be fine in ten days or half a month. It won't be a problem."
"Where is that person from Shanhaisi?"
Uncle Tian sat on the chair next to him and said with a smile, "You are talking about Bailing. That girl has a lot of things on her hands. Who knows where she is right now."
"Don't worry, I have already taught that girl a lesson for you, and she has deeply realized her mistakes. She will not act so rashly in the future."
"Here, this is something she gave you as an apology. It's up to you whether you want to accept it or not."
As he spoke, Yu Tianqi placed a wooden box next to Lu Chen's bed.
With a little curiosity, Lu Chen opened the wooden box.
The next second, a sharp sword intent spread out, causing Lu Chen to subconsciously close his eyes.
When the sword intent dissipated, a simple black long sword came into Lu Chen's sight.
As a sword cultivator, Lu Chen was inexplicably attracted to the sword the moment he saw it and couldn't take his eyes away.
Seeing this, Yu Tianqi, who was standing by, began to explain the origin of the sword.
"The Black Dragon Sword is one of the twelve dragon-slaying swords unique to the Shanhai Division."
"If Bai Ling hadn't gone too far this time, and if the Bai family hadn't had some power in the Shanhai Division, it wouldn't have been so easy for you to get the sword."
"After all, it represents more than just a sword. It is also a symbol of the identity and power of the Shanhai Division."
"After all, the masters of the Black Dragon used it to kill many demons and evil cultivators. It can be said that they have made great military achievements. I wonder how many people want this sword."
"Then...can I take it?"
Lu Chen was not blinded by greed, but asked Yu Tianqi calmly.
"Well... that depends on you. After all, although the old man said he was apologizing, you don't have to think too much about it."
"But you and I both know that once you really take this sword, even if you don't mean to, in the eyes of outsiders you will still be on the pirate ship of the Shanhaisi."
"Although the Shanhaisi's style of doing things is a bit overbearing, they are still quite good to their own people. It depends on what you think."
Hearing this, Lu Chen pondered for a moment, but did not rush to make a decision. Instead, he prepared to get more information.
After all, he had never heard of the Shanhaisi organization before, and he didn't understand why Bailing suddenly came to him.
He needs to know more information before he can make a better judgment.
"Uncle Tian, can you tell me about the situation of the Shanhai Division?"
"Okay, there are some things you are now qualified to know. After all, not everyone in the Qi training stage can hurt Bai Ling, a top-notch foundation-building stage physical cultivator."
"That is because you are not in the Shanhai Division, otherwise you would know what an amazing feat you have done."
"Many of the little ghosts in the Shanhai Division are very curious about you."
"They all want to know who is the ruthless person who could make a troublemaker like Bai Ling run into a wall, and what's more, he is just watching the fun while practicing Qi."
“Is that so…”
Lu Chen scratched his cheek, but he didn't feel like he had done anything.
"It's okay. You don't have to worry about these things now. Just focus on your studies and practice well."
"After all, the saying that everyone below the foundation building stage is just an ant is not just talk."
"After seeing the methods of Bailing, you must have understood how big the gap is between the Qi training stage and the foundation building stage, right?"
Lu Chen nodded. He understood the situation very clearly now.
You have to know that I used all my means that day, and it was all intentional.
It was just barely enough to hurt the other person.
And what about Lark?
It was just a subconscious punch, but it left me unable to get out of bed for three days.
The gap between the two can indeed be described as a world of difference.
This is certainly because Bai Ling is not an ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivator, but Lu Chen believes that he is not an ordinary Qi training cultivator either.
Faced with such a crushing defeat, he still felt a little frustrated.
Yu Tianqi seemed to see the depression in Lu Chen's heart, and touched his head with a smile.
"Alright, alright. It's not shameful if a Qi training stage player can't beat a foundation building stage player. It's truly shameful if a foundation building stage player can't beat a foundation building stage player."
"You want to know the situation of the Shanhai Division, right? I will talk to you about it now."
Hearing this, Lu Chen immediately listened carefully.
"The predecessor of the Mountain and Sea Division was the Jiuzhou Demon Suppression Division, and the purpose of the Demon Suppression Division was to detain those evil demons and evil cultivators who committed crimes in Jiuzhou."
"But gradually, the people in the Demon Suppression Division discovered that although some of these demons would threaten the safety of the people in Jiuzhou, some of them were not bad in nature and could be used by the Demon Suppression Division."
"So after a thousand years of exploration, the Demon Suppression Division gradually developed a complete method of utilizing demons."
"After a thousand years, the first batch of demons that were integrated into the Demon Suppression Division gradually became part of the Demon Suppression Division."
"And at this point, the two words 'Zhen Mo' that are not conducive to unity can no longer be used."
"After all, at that time, many demons in the Demon Suppression Division had already turned over a new leaf and completely integrated into the Demon Suppression Division."
“So from then on, the Demon Suppression Division was officially renamed the Mountain and Sea Division, and those demons recognized by the Mountain and Sea Division were also called Mountain and Sea Beasts.”
"Up to now, the strange beasts of the mountains and seas have become a force that cannot be ignored in Jiuzhou. The Shangfu bird beside Bai Ling is one of the strange beasts of the mountains and seas."
"And because of the special nature of the mountain and sea beasts, they also have the right to independently choose their partners in the Mountain and Sea Division."
"So if you want to enter the Mountain and Sea Division, the first step is to gain recognition from a certain mountain and sea beast."
"This is also the reason why although the number of people in the Shanhai Division is small, everyone is an elite."
"After all, if you want to gain the recognition of the strange beasts of the mountains and seas, you must have some skills."
"In the Shanhai Division, Shanhai Walker is the lowest level, followed by Master of Scriptures, Great Master of Scriptures, Guardian, and finally the Four Domain Lords."
"In addition to its powerful strength, the Shanhai Division also has many factions within it, and the four major academies are the most serious among them."
"After all, they not only provide a large number of talents to the Shanhai Division every year, but these people will also give back to the Taoist Academy itself after they grow up."
"This has made the power of the four major Taoist academies and the several immortal sects behind them in Jiuzhou more and more consolidated."
"The supporter behind the Qingzhou Mountain and Sea Division where Bai Ling is located is the Qinghe Taoist Academy, one of the four Taoist academies. The largest immortal sect in the Qinghe Taoist Academy is the Shangqing Taoist Palace, which has been entrenched in Changqing Mountain for a long time."
"If the Immortal Gate is regarded as a place to leave the world, then the four major academies are the place to enter the world, and the Mountain and Sea Division is the link between the two."
"They never deal with mundane matters, only matters beyond mundane matters."
“And only those who stand out from the Taoist academies and immortal sects are qualified to enter the Shanhai Division.”
"Now you should understand why the Shanhai Division is so mysterious, right?"
"Although you are a student in the Dao class, you have already stepped half a foot into the world of cultivation."
"But as long as you haven't entered the Taoist Academy or your cultivation has reached the foundation building level, then you are not considered a true cultivator, and naturally you can't get in touch with the level of the Mountain and Sea Division."
After hearing this, Lu Chen finally understood where Bai Ling's overbearing arrogance came from.
Taoist temple, immortal gate, mountain and sea division...
In order for Bai Ling to become a walking official of Shanhaisi, he must have stepped on the heads of countless peers and stood out from the crowd.
With such an experience, it’s no wonder that she is so arrogant and doesn’t take ordinary people seriously.
Thinking of this, Lu Chen looked at his chest wrapped in gauze and made a decision in his heart.
"Uncle Tian, I'll take this sword."
When Yu Tianqi heard this, the smile on his face became even brighter.
"Okay, only children do multiple-choice questions, adults want them all!"
"I was originally worried that you would refuse this gift out of shame and not want to have anything to do with those old guys, but you didn't let me down."
"After all, who stipulated that we should eat the sugar-coated bullets together? You should not only eat the sugar-coated bullets, but also hit the bullets back and slap those old guys in the face, just like I did back then."
"What happened to the Shanhai Division? What happened to the four major academies?"
"Your uncle Tian has been to the nine great immortal gates, not to mention the four great academies."
"What could they do to me in the end? They just let me out obediently!"
"Face is earned by oneself, not given by others."
"Use Shanhaisi's sword to slap Shanhaisi in the face. I can't wait to see the ugly faces of those old guys. Hahaha!"
"You want to bribe the person I like with a broken sword? You are dreaming!"
"I'm not bragging, but back then your uncle was..."
In the next hour, Lu Chen heard a legendary story called "The Great Sage Tianqi bravely broke into the Mountain and Sea Division and caused a big disturbance in the Nine Immortals Gate."
As for how true this story is... Lu Chen remained noncommittal.
After all, when you hear these five words "I'm not bragging".
This often means that what you hear next... is most likely bragging.
