Chapter 230: Chapter 166: The Jade Que Treasure Gui

Translator: 549690339

Master Tian Xin’s laughter had barely faded when the cultivators of the Spirit Combat Sect cast strange glances at Han Yi. It was as though they were looking at a dead man, yet they also feared that this “dead man” would make a last-ditch effort to implicate them on his way out.

Such a strange expression left Han Yi increasingly uneasy.

The cultivators of the Spirit Combat Sect stopped speaking. Under the lead of the Earth Spirit Monarch, they left first, as if staying any longer might bring them bad luck.

On the way to the fourth-tier of the Immortal Court, Han Yi encountered several groups of cultivators.

Some were from ordinary Golden Core Sects. Seeing Master Tian Xin, the leading Golden Core Masters quickly avoided him and hurried off.

Some were from other Nascent Soul Sects who also seemed to have disputes with Master Tian Xin. They locked horns over a few words and then stormed off.

Others were from the top three Sects. This time, it was Master Tian Xin who didn’t dare to approach. He hastily led Han Yi away, fearing to be confronted.

They walked for several hours before finally reaching the fourth-tier of the Immortal Court and stepping into the Eternal Joy Garden. Guided by the guards, they arrived at the courtyard allotted to the Heavenly Will Sect. As soon as they closed the courtyard door, Master Tian Xin wiped his nonexistent sweat with an uneasy look on his face.

“Master, did you manage to offend all the sacred lands and the top three sects?” Han Yi asked in disbelief.

Master Tian Xin’s eyebrows raised in surprise, “Rubbish, how could you say I have offended all? Clearly, they do not understand the Heavens’ Will, nor follow their heart — their actions are foolish.”

“This is a dispute of the Dao, there’s no room for retreat.”

“Fine, when you encounter those from sacred lands and the top three Sects, remember to keep a low profile.”

Han Yi shuddered.

He had suspected it—this old geezer indeed would have offended nearly all the major powers in Daqian.

Now, Han Yi began to wonder why Master Tian Xin was still alive and kicking, rather than being suffocated in a sack in some corner.

Could it indeed be the Fleaven’s Will?

He shook his head frantically, unwilling to believe in the Heaven’s Will, lest he fell into their trap.

Always in line with his nature, Han Yi would run away if he could, or just comply if not.

The Eternal Joy Garden consisted of dozens of courtyards of which the Heavenly Will Sect was assigned only one. Han Yi longed to leave the courtyard and enjoy the Eternal Joy Garden. Should he, by chance, run into someone from the Xuandan Sect, it would surely be best. If not, he could take the opportunity to escape.

He suspected the Xuandan Sect would also send someone to participate this time. After all, it was the Daqian Emperor’s 2000th birthday, and all sects in the Daqian Region with Golden Cores or above would most likely attend out of respect.

However, having just survived a catastrophe, the Xuandan Sect’s Yuan Shun might not come, and those present might be other Supreme Elders. If Han Yi could encounter any of these elders, he might be protected, and by then, Master Tian Xin would not dare to forcibly seize him.

However.

To Han Yi’s surprise, as soon as they entered the courtyard, Master Tian Xin laid out an Array.

“This is a top-tier fourth-stage Array, the Hunyuan Ruyi Array. I obtained it from an Immortal Mansion—capable of withstanding a full-blown attack from a Nascent Soul Peak cultivator.”

“Rest assured. With this formation, so long as we’re not faced with a Spirit Transformation Expert, both of us, master and apprentice, will be absolutely safe.”

An invisible wave spread out as the Array was set up, eventually stopping right at the courtyard gate. The Array was designed such that it perfectly encased the courtyard.

Han Yi fell silent, but he did not give up. He turned and entered a quiet room.

Since he was there, he might as well settle down.

Then.

He sat down, drawing on the Spirit Energy in the quiet room to cultivate.

This courtyard was located within the fourth tier of the Immortal Court. Judging from the richness of the courtyard’s Spirit Energy, it was approximately equivalent to a Fifth-stage Spirit Vein, which was already the upper limit for a Golden Core Stage cultivator. For master cultivators like Tian Xin, this was just passable, but for Han Yi, it was an excellent cultivation environment.

A moment later.

Han Yi opened his eyes, a flash of joy sparkled in his pupils.

Training in a Fifth-stage Spiritual Vein really was different. This was Han Yi’s first time cultivating in an environment with a Fifth-stage Spiritual Vein, and the result was almost as good as using middle-grade spirit stones to cultivate at full strength.

Moreover, the nurturing effect of the Spiritual Vein was much milder than that of Spirit Stones.

This kind of opportunity was as rare to him as it was precious. Naturally, he was not going to waste it.

What surprised Han Yi was.

His cultivation lasted a year.

At first, Han Yi would leave the quiet room every now and then to inspect opportunities to escape. But the Hunyuan Ruyi Array, while warding off outside threats, also confined Han Yi to this place.

As for Master Tian Xin, sometimes he was inside the courtyard, sometimes he wasn’t. It was hard to predict his whereabouts.

When Master Tian Xin was out, Han Yi didn’t try to dismantle the Array because he was aware of his own limitations. This was a top-tier fourth stage array, which might even be more potent than the Xuandan Sect’s Sect Guardian Array, the Zhou Heavenly Xuangang Array.

Wishing to challenge a fourth-stage array while being a Foundation Building cultivator was a sure way to a swift death. Han Yi wanted to escape, but he was not prepared to die for it.

By the fourth month, Han Yi ceased entirely leaving the quiet room and chose to stay there, fully committing to cultivation.

A Fifth-stage Spiritual Vein available for free was far too tempting to pass up.

A year later.

Han Yi was awakened from his cultivation. The one who woke him was naturally Master Tian Xin.

“It’s time.”

“The grand ceremony has begun, and soon it will be your turn to go on stage.”

Han Yi’s eyes lit up.

It was finally his turn, which meant he would have a chance to escape this peculiar relationship.

“Remember, you will be thrown into a Cave Heaven called Treasured Jade Heaven, which belongs to Duke Dingguo of Daqian. That Cave Heaven is rich in a type of purple spirit jade called Spiritual Jade..”
