The Duan Household of the Spirit Realm
The refined young man waved his hand and said softly, "Perhaps I don't know either, but that's not the point."
Li Feifan paused for a moment. "Isn't that the point?"
He immediately realized something, his expression changed slightly, and his pupils contracted for a moment. "That female cultivator just now... she was very respectful to that male cultivator, even calling him 'Young Master,' could she be a maid?"
The refined young man glanced at him and smiled, "Uncle Li is quite intelligent, but sometimes he's a bit too emotional. For cultivators, this kind of emotionality is extremely dangerous."
Upon hearing the refined young man's words, Li Feifan's face showed embarrassment, but he also felt a lingering fear in his heart.
He murmured, "If... if that female cultivator really is the male cultivator's maid, then what is the male cultivator's strength? He probably cultivates a Heaven Grade Cultivation Method, right? And... his background must be quite astonishing. But... why is this male cultivator's flying Law Treasure just an ordinary flying sword?"
The refined young man said softly, "Uncle Li, a flying sword doesn't mean anything. Besides... let's assume that the female cultivator is a disciple of Immortal Sect Holy Land. To learn Heaven Grade Cultivation Method at such a young age, her talent must be extraordinary. She's very likely inner disciple or even a personal disciple... What does it mean that inner disciples or even personal disciples of Immortal Sect Holy Land would be willing to be a maidservant to a male cultivator?"
Li Feifan stared blankly for a moment, mouth agape, before finally reacting.
He said in disbelief, "This... this shouldn't be possible, right? Could the other party be a direct descendant of that Spirit Transformation Ancestor from the Immortal Sect Holy Land... No, even if she is a direct descendant, she shouldn't be making a female cultivator with such talent a maid... There shouldn't be such a person in the entire Canglan Realm, right?"
The refined young man spoke in a gentle voice, chuckling softly, "If the other party isn't from the Canglan Realm, then it's possible."
Upon hearing this, Li Feifan's pupils contracted slightly, and he looked at the refined young man with some disbelief. "But... but the Canglan Realm itself rarely has cultivators from the upper realms coming here, right? Even in ancient books, there are very few records of it."
The refined young man waved his hand. "Rare doesn't mean nonexistent. That male cultivator's background is probably not simple, and his talent should be very strong as well. It's best if we don't provoke him."
The reason why the refined young man had such thoughts was because he himself also came from the upper realm.
The refined young man was named Duan Chong. His Duan Household, was considered a very powerful Lineage among the human race in the Spirit Realm. It was one of the upper-class Lineage of the human race, and the Duan Household patriarch was a great figure in the Mahayana Realm.
The Duan Household 'Lineage approach to cultivating outstanding disciples differs from that of many other forces in the Spirit Realm.
The Duan Household patriarch rose from humble beginnings, cultivating his way up from a small plane to the Spirit Realm, eventually becoming one of its Spirit Realm.
Therefore, the Duan Household patriarch established an ancestral rule that Duan Household members, upon reaching adulthood, must be sent down to a plane below the Spirit Realm to grow on their own, and eventually ascend back to the Spirit Realm to return to the Duan Household.
Only disciples who grow up in this way can be considered geniuses who have experienced the struggles at the bottom, and only they can receive the full support and cultivation of the Lineage.
Duan Chong is one of the direct descendants of the Duan Household in this generation. He was quite lucky to have come to the Canglan Realm. Although the plane level was not high and the concentration of Spiritual Qi was average, it was dominated by humans and the plane environment was relatively stable.
It's much better than those brothers and sisters who entered planes dominated by Demon Race or other alien races!
You should know that the trials for the Duan Household members can really kill people!
Apart from the resources provided by the Duan Household from the very beginning, and the start-up capital for entering the lower plane, everything else depends on oneself!
If you die in a lower plane, then you're truly dead!
Of course, if you choose to give up the trial, you can also choose to return to the Duan Household through special channels.
However, this would only turn him into a marginal figure who could only loaf around and wait to die, and the Lineage would no longer provide him with resources.
For the Duan Household members who are of average talent, this might be a good choice.
However, the Duan Household was naturally unwilling to become a useless person.
Duan Chong Dao of Alchemy is a prime example. He possesses exceptional talent, with Spirit Root that is the Azure Wood Spirit Physique, making him affinity for the Wood Dao. Consequently, he specializes in Dao of Alchemy and has achieved remarkable mastery in the art.
Before even entering the Canglan Realm, he had already studied much of the Dao of Alchemy Duan Household's insights into alchemy.
Although he is currently limited to a second-tier Alchemist due to his cultivation level, his alchemy skills and understanding are no less than those of Dao of Alchemy masters or even Dao of Alchemy Grandmasters!
In addition, the Duan Household's preferential treatment of geniuses allows them to freely practice various Cultivation Method. The one he is currently practicing is naturally Heaven Grade Cultivation Method, and even Heaven Grade Supreme Quality!
It's precisely because he hasn't yet comprehended the Wood Dao Principle and the Dao of Alchemy Principle to the level of materialization that he could directly cultivate Spirit Grade Cultivation Method!
However, he had sealed away the various Cultivation Method of the Duan Household in his Sea of Consciousness, waiting to cultivate them later when his cultivation level improved, so he was in no hurry.
Because of his own background and broad knowledge, Duan Chong, although unable to see through Lu Yang, still felt a great threat from him.
If this were the Spirit Realm, Duan Chong wouldn't mind investigating Lu Yang's background, since he has the Duan Household backing him.
But this is the Canglan Realm, and there's no one behind him. If things go wrong, the situation could become really troublesome.
Although he still has a trump card to save his life, he's only at the Foundation Establishment Realm, and he's already used it up. What will he do next?
He's going to stay in the Canglan Realm until he ascends to immortality!
Therefore, Duan Chong chose to settle the matter peacefully, as a way of giving face to the power behind the man.
Of course, Duan Chong had no intention of telling his subordinates any of this.
In Duan Chong's view, the Canglan Realm was ultimately a small place, and the Golden Core Realm cultivators here had too narrow a vision; they could only be used temporarily and were not worth cultivating.
His current cultivation level is not high enough, so he naturally needs a Golden Core Realm cultivator to protect him, but he only needs to take out some pills.
This is a piece of cake for his current level of Dao of Alchemy.
Among second-tier pills, there are some precious pills that even Golden Core Realm and Nascent Soul Realm cultivators would covet, such as pills that enhance the soul and improve aptitude.
As for now, Duan Chong's idea is to make a name for himself at this Dao of Alchemy Convention and then enter the Crimson Cloud Sect for cultivation.
Although Crimson Cloud Sect is just an ordinary Nascent Soul Realm power, it is already considered top-tier in the Canglan Realm.
Furthermore, the Crimson Cloud Sect is a sect focused on alchemy, so they rarely make enemies, making it a suitable place for him to refine pills and comprehend the Dao.
After that, as long as he cultivates peacefully in the Crimson Cloud Sect and reaches the Nascent Soul Realm, he can consider going out to travel, break through to the Spirit Transformation Realm, and then ascend back to the Spirit Realm to return to the Duan Household.
For Duan Chong, who possesses the Azure Wood Spirit Physique, this process will not take too long, certainly no more than five hundred years. This is a time he can certainly afford to wait for.
He glanced at Li Feifan, who still looked somewhat shaken, and smiled, "Let's go, let's heal Uncle Wang first, the Dao of Alchemy Convention is about to begin."
Li Feifan snapped out of his daze and quickly nodded, "Yes, young master!"
