A small casual cultivator!

Chapter 947 Unexpected

Lu Luan looked out the window and said, "I have been fighting the demons in the wilderness and haven't been back to Nanhezhou for a long time. How come a new sect has been built here?"

"So you are the senior from the battlefield in the wasteland," the servant's eyes immediately became full of respect when he heard that Lu Luan had resisted the demon tribe.

He immediately replied more politely, "Senior, this is Haoling Sect. We moved here from the Wilderness a few years ago. I heard that the sect was originally a powerful force with two mid-Nascent Soul masters. Unfortunately, they suffered heavy casualties in the battle with the demons, and most of the sect's leaders died. Now the Wilderness is in ruins, so they moved here."

Before the war began, Haoling Sect had two middle-Nascent Soul stage masters and sixteen early-Nascent Soul stage experts. Now that the sect has fallen, only five early-Nascent Soul stage elders have escaped with some disciples, and the rest have either become food for monsters or materials for the magic practitioners to practice.

The entire sect's inheritance was almost cut off.

"I see. It's really tragic."

"Senior, the war in the Wilderness was too tragic. Many families and sects in the Wilderness were completely destroyed. The Haoling Sect was lucky. Although it suffered a devastating blow, fortunately, the sect's incense is still alive."

"The strength of Haoling Sect seems to be pretty good now." Lin Xi looked around.

The servant bowed his head politely and replied: "It is indeed very good. Now there are four Yuanying realm masters."

"Four?"

Lu Luan looked over. This was different from what he had known in the Haoyue Sect before. He added, "I didn't expect there would be so many strong people."

"In fact, there were originally five of them, but one of them was unfortunately bewitched by a demon when he escaped. Half a year ago, his mind was devoured by his inner demon and he became possessed. He lost his mind and went crazy, killing many people in his own sect. Even our city was broken in half. There was nothing we could do, so a late Nascent Soul strongman from Nanhezhou took action and killed him with one palm."

The servant's tone was full of regret. This crazy and possessed person has turned into a killing machine and there is no way he can be saved.

"I was hit by a demon. How did you know?"

Lu Luan asked, feeling uneasy.

"I heard from the Haoling Sect disciples who often come to eat in the building that the Wilderness is very close to the Demon Realm. In the war in the Wilderness, the demon cultivators and the monsters joined forces to attack the various immortal forces. The human race suffered so many casualties, all because of those demon cultivators. These bastards, who made pills, weapons, talismans, and formations for the monsters, worked hard for the monsters to fight against the human race. They will not have a good end."

The servant became excited, and when he talked about the devil cultivators, his eyes were filled with hatred.

Lu Luan looked out the window silently.

After leaving Lingxing Continent, he could actually feel that most places in the entire fairyland had little tolerance for demonic cultivators. Nanhe Continent was close to the Wilderness, and many cultivators in the continent had gone to the Wilderness to resist the monsters, and they hated demonic cultivators even more.

Among the sects here, he has not heard of anyone willing to accept a magic cultivator.

"Fellow Daoist, are you saying that the reason why that strong man went astray was because of the evil cultivator?" Lin Xi asked.

"That's right." The servant said with hatred.

"What's the current situation of other powerful people in Haoling Sect?" Lu Luan also asked.

The servant shook his head: "Senior, I don't know about this."

"How many people are there in Haoling Sect now?"

Lin Xi continued.

"About 50,000 people."

"So little?" The two were surprised.

For a sect that has powerful Nascent Soul masters, 50,000 people are really too few.

There are more than these on any mountain in the Haoyue Sect.

"When Haolingmen first moved here, there were less than 30,000 people, even less."

“With the strength of Haoling Sect, why do they only have so few disciples?” Lin Xi asked puzzled.

"The Haoling Sect not only looks at talent but also fate when recruiting disciples. If there is no fate, even if the person has a top-grade yellow spiritual root, they will not accept him. I heard that during their heyday, the entire sect had less than 100,000 people."

"Fate, how do you see fate?"

The servant replied, "The method of Haoling Sect is very simple, that is, drawing lots. After those who join the sect pass the spiritual root test and the character test, they must draw lots again. Only those who draw a specific lot can officially become disciples."

“It’s really peculiar.”

Lin Xi murmured.

"It seems that Haoling Sect is taking a streamlined approach, which can better concentrate the luck."

Lu Luan said that there are very few sects in the Immortal Realm that take the path of streamlining, but the people selected by this method are all predestined people, and every one who joins will add luck to the sect. Although those large sects have a large number of people, their luck is scattered, and sometimes accepting disciples not only fails to increase the sect's luck, but also absorbs the luck.

This screening method is only suitable for small and medium-sized sects. Large forces like the Haoyue Sect have relatively loose standards for accepting disciples. As long as the talent is sufficient and the character is good enough, it will be fine. As for fate, as with most forces, it's fate once you get here.

On Cangming Star, the human race is facing external threats, and the big sects have to bear a heavy responsibility, so there must be enough people in the sect. If the Haoyue Sect only has tens of thousands of people, it will not be able to resist the massive tide of monsters in the foreign land.

There are too many monsters, and when the monster tide comes, the monsters carrying the strange soil rush up in an instant, not in waves. In that situation, it takes enough people to fight to stop it.

Lu Luan and Su Xinghe had talked about this. On the Tianxing star, most of the forces took the streamlined route. There were even some weird sects that only had one successor in a generation. They all attached great importance to fate, because their destined people all had great luck.

Then the two asked some more questions.

"Two seniors, I can go now."

The servant asked nervously. The two men in front of him looked friendly and amiable, but they were extremely powerful men after all, and he didn't want to serve them all the time.

"For you."

Lu Luan picked a leaf of spiritual herb from the spiritual medicine cave.

The servant's eyes lit up immediately, and he said happily, "Thank you, senior."

After the servant took the spiritual leaf, he left happily.

"Brother Lu, the current situation of Haoling Sect is not good for you."

Lin Xi said solemnly.

"Yeah, luckily we didn't go directly to Haolingmen."

After finding out the details, Lu Luan realized that conquering the Haoling Sect would be more difficult than he had imagined.

The Haoling Sect, like other forces in the Wilderness, was deeply persecuted by the demon cultivators. If they knew that I was a demon cultivator, let alone merging into the Haoyue Sect, it was not certain whether they would even be able to speak politely to me.

The most difficult thing now is his identity as a demon cultivator. Even if he is an elder of the Haoyue Sect, it will not work here.

Moreover, it is impossible to hide this identity.

After dealing with me, Haoling Sect will definitely go to Haoyue Sect to inquire about my background.

“How can we make them accept it?”

Lin Xi frowned, thinking of a solution.
