The chaos subsided and the space returned to normal.

Han Yi discovered that at this moment, there was a huge teleportation array under his feet. Countless runes were laid out on the ground, connected and connected to form a huge array base.

Above his head, there was a yellow Dao formation, covering the place where he was. With a sweep of Dao thoughts, he knew that the place he was in was an area roughly equivalent to two immortal realms, with yellow Dao light suspended in the chaotic land.

Dao Nian expanded outwards, Han Yi suddenly raised his head and looked beyond the land. Far away, at the edge that Dao Nian could sense, there was a vast sacred mountain with no bottom or top visible, standing in the chaos.

Han Yi instantly realized that this sacred mountain must be Demon Witch Mountain.

The land he was on at the moment was a land surrounding Demon Witch Mountain. There was not just one such land around Demon Witch Mountain, but countless.

Han Yi's expression didn't change much. He had seen Ancestor God Star and Eternal Dao Mark. Relatively speaking, Demon Witch Mountain was far less shocking than Eternal Dao Mark, let alone Ancestor God Star.

He withdrew his gaze and looked outside the formation.

At this moment, outside the formation, a female cultivator wearing a Daoist robe was looking at him. Han Yi took one step and arrived in front of the female cultivator.

"Han Yi, I have met fellow Daoist." Han Yi spoke first.

Opposite him, Jiang Xiying looked at Han Yi with twinkling eyes. He was quite interested in Han Yi. It was rare to see a genius who had crossed several major levels from Golden Immortal to the Dao realm in six thousand years.

Moreover, after Han Yi appeared just now, and after seeing the huge Demon Witch Mountain, her face had not changed much, and it was even more obvious to her.

She instantly knew that the Daoist realm in front of her was anything but simple.

She was originally worried that although the Daoist she had recruited was fast in progress, she would have average knowledge and weak combat power, but at this moment, this thought was overturned by her because she could not see through him either.

She composed herself and said:

"Let me introduce first, I am Jiang Xiying, and I belong to the second mountain master of Demon Witch Mountain."

"Welcome, Fellow Daoist Han."

The voice was pleasant to the ear, even better than it had been across the teleportation array not long ago.

Han Yi smiled slightly, "Thank you, Friend Jiang."

Jiang Xiying turned to the side and said, "Come this way, fellow Daoist Han, I will take you to the Demon Martial Hall first, and change your identity token into a purple token corresponding to the Tao realm."

Immediately, Jiang Xiying walked forward, and Han Yi followed behind without hesitation.

"To be honest, this is my third time leaving the big world and setting foot in Chaos. My understanding of Demon Witch Mountain is only from my fellow Daoist brothers, which is not comprehensive. Can Fellow Daoist Jiang help me clarify my doubts?"

Jiang Xiying Yu Guang glanced at the indifference on Han Yi's face and found that there was no trace of anxiety on Han Yi's face, so he couldn't help but look up a bit.

"The origin of Demon Witch Mountain can be traced back to the beginning of chaos."

"Twelve ancient Demon Witch who were born from chaos and were born as gods established Demon Witch Mountain. Each of these twelve strong men derived a corresponding branch. Together, they are the twelve branches of Demon Witch, until today."

"Demon Witch Mountain of Fuheng Dao Domain, which is what fellow Daoists see now, was built by Sword Demon Witch. Therefore, among Demon Witch Mountain, this place is also called Sword Witch Mountain."

"..."

"Sword Witch Mountain has a total of ninety-nine mountain masters. These ninety-nine mountain masters, plus Demon Witch Mountain spirits, form the top management of Sword Witch Mountain."

"Among the ninety-nine mountain masters, the first mountain master, with the Daoist name Sword Witch, is one of the twelve ancient existences. However, the first mountain master is rarely in the mountain. According to records, he has not come back for three Chaos Eras."

"And I belong to Demon Witch Mountain, the second mountain master, Saint Flame Dao Lord."

"The Daoist master has been in seclusion for 130,000 years. If he comes out of seclusion, he will definitely be able to break through to Heavenly Venerable and become my Sword Witch Mountain second Heavenly Venerable."

Han Yi was slightly shocked when he heard this.

The Tao Master Jiang Xiying talks about is not the Daoist ancestor, nor the master of the Daoist temple, but the master of the avenue.

This title is a special title for those who exist in the Hedao realm.

And he also knew that Demon Witch Mountain, in addition to Saint Flame Dao Lord who broke through Heavenly Venerable in retreat, there were four Daoist masters, namely the third to sixth mountain masters.

As Jiang Xiying spoke, Han Yi learned more and more about Sword Witch Mountain.

After a while, Jiang Xiying took him away from the suspended land and headed towards the vast Demon Witch Mountain. In a palace on the mountainside, he handled and exchanged a sword card for Han Yi.

From the black iron level swordsman sword card, it crossed several levels and was directly replaced by the purple sword card at the Tao level.

On one side of the sword card, there is a towering sacred mountain carved on it, which looks like Demon Witch Mountain where he is at this moment, while on the other side, there is the word "Yi".

For a swordsman's sword card, it is naturally impossible to have his or her name engraved on it, but for a Daoist realm, there is a character representing his title on the purple sword card.

After Han Yi got the sword card, he put it away, and Jiang Xiying breathed a sigh of relief when he saw it.

Her main purpose in recruiting Han Yi was to let Han Yi compete for the position of mountain master and to benefit herself.

But this goal may not be achieved.

And if Han Yi fails, she will also persuade him to choose to join the second mountain master camp. In this way, the second mountain master camp will have one more Daoist being.

In Sword Witch Mountain, the mountain owners are naturally not a chess game, but each has his or her own thoughts and competes for resources.

Saint Flame Dao Lord has been in seclusion for too long, and the second mountain master's voice is getting weaker and weaker. Therefore, being able to recruit one more Daoist realm to join Jiang Xiying also has potential benefits in the long run.

And if Han Yi succeeds in the election and becomes the mountain leader, then he is new here and has his own connections. He can also cooperate with the second mountain owner's camp. This will also provide a strong support for the second mountain owner, which is even better.

All in all, there are many benefits.

In fact, in addition to Han Yi, Jiang Xiying also recruited four other Daoists. However, those four Daoists had average qualifications and were not Daoists beloved by a big world.

And there are many people in Demon Witch Mountain who do what she does.

"Next, I will take fellow Daoist Han to a temporary cave. You can practice in the cave. In nine years, the competition for the selection of the mountain master will officially begin. Fellow Daoist, please make some adjustments during this time."

"In addition, if fellow Daoist Han has any questions, you can ask me at any time."

Han Yi's eyes moved. He actually had two questions that he wanted to ask. He just took this opportunity and asked:

"I really have two doubts. I don't know if it is inconvenient for our friends to answer them."

Seeing Jiang Xiying nodding, Han Yi continued:

"The first one is that Demon Witch Mountain doesn't seem to have strict requirements for the mountain master. Even foreigners like me can participate as long as they have a sword card. As far as I know, it is not difficult to obtain Demon Witch Sword Token."

Jiang Xiying smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist Han is unaware of something."

"Since Sword Witch Mountain was established, it has gone through countless years, and the system on the mountain has been modified countless times. Finally, it was decided by the first mountain master, Sword Witch Heavenly Venerable, to accept the strong ones of chaos. As long as it does not violate the nine fundamental mountain laws of Demon Witch Mountain, everything else is fine."

Han Yi also knows the nine fundamental laws mentioned by Jiang Xiying, which are nine relatively common rules, such as not leaking Demon Witch Mountain's important information, etc.

"And if you violate the Nine Laws, even if you are promoted to Heavenly Venerable, as long as the No. 1 Mountain Master takes action, you can easily kill him."

"Sword Witch Mountain With this Dinghai Divine Pearl here, even if it is destroyed, it can be quickly rebuilt."

Han Yi heard the words and nodded slightly. From Jiang Xiying's words, he naturally understood that Demon Witch Mountain has the existence of the first mountain master. No matter what happens, it can be settled. The first mountain master, Sword Witch Heavenly Venerable, is the greatest guarantee.

His face straightened and he asked his second question.

"I still have a doubt, that is, today's Demon Witch Mountain, Heavenly Venerable level of powerhouses are actually broken. In other words, why is there only one Heavenly Venerable, the second mountain master, Saint Flame Dao Lord, who is still one step away from being promoted to Heavenly Venerable."

Han Yi had this doubt when Xuanzang Daozu in Suizhu Hall mentioned the strength of the master of Mowu Mountain. At that time, he asked Senior Brother Xuanzang, but unfortunately Xuanzang didn't know either.

Jiang Xiying was slightly stunned. Obviously, she didn't know about this problem, or in other words, he had never thought of this problem.

"I have never thought about this question."

"Something strange."

Jiang Xiying's pretty eyebrows were slightly frowned, her eyes were filled with confusion.

Obviously, Jiang Xiying also realized that something was wrong.

"I will note this issue down for now, and I will investigate it again later. When I see you next time, if I have any conclusions, I will share it with you."

Han Yi thanked, "Thank you, fellow Daoist, for clarifying my doubts."

After a while, Jiang Xiying sent Han Yi to a cave and then left again.

After watching the other party leave, Han Yi looked back.

It is said to be a cave, but the place where he is at the moment is a secret realm. This secret realm is a special space that exists in the Tao realm and is taken out from the normal space of Demon Witch Mountain.

This secret realm is not far away from Demon Witch Mountain. It is similar to the land he arrived at after teleportation. Moreover, in the secret realm, the power of fairy spirits is extremely rich, which is suitable for Daoist practice.

Han Yi is not strict about the cultivation environment, so he briefly explored this secret realm and found that there are monks living in this secret realm itself, but the secret realm is divided into upper and lower floors. He is on the upper floor, and the low-level monks are on the lower floor. The fairy spirit in the upper floor is rich, but the spiritual energy in the lower floor is average.

He didn't have much thought about the cave he arranged. Once he came, he would make peace with it.

With a wave of his hand, he took out a black Dao sword. This Dao sword was not his original four, but had been purchased by Ten Thousand Tribulations Dao Ancestor from outside transactions over the years. The purpose was naturally to be used by Han Yi and to enhance Han Yi's strength.

Of course, Han Yi will also give a few Daoist tools obtained from Ten-Thousand Dynasties Dao Ancestor to Ten Thousand Tribulations Dao Ancestor to prevent Immortal Court from losing money.

This black Dao sword is named Mystic Elephant, which comes from the Kunlun Immortal Realm.

In addition to the Mystic Elephant Dao sword, he also has a Dao sword that has not yet been refined, Xuli Dao Sword.

These two Dao swords are both low-level Dao swords. Together with the original four Dao swords of Han Yi, they can greatly enhance the power of the Void Sword Realm.

However, it didn't take long, and Han Yi had only roughly refined the Mystic Elephant Dao sword. It was expected that he could barely activate the power of the five Dao swords before the mountain master competed.

Time passes. For the Daoist realm, it can be said that nine years have passed in the blink of an eye.

In the secret realm, Han Yi stood up, picked up the black Dao sword from his knees, and walked out of this secret realm with the Dao sword in hand.

Outside the secret realm is the chaos of nothingness, and across a section of chaotic space is the huge Demon Witch Mountain.

He suddenly sensed something and looked to the side. He came within the sensing range of Dao Nian. Three Dao realms also came out of the secret realm of Dongtian Land. One of them had a gentle face and shook his head towards Han Yi and several other Dao realms in greeting. The other two had expressionless faces and seemed a little indifferent.

Han Yi also paid tribute and walked towards Demon Witch Mountain in front.

He already knew before that the location of this mountain master election was a special place on Demon Witch Mountain.

Witch Tower.

This Witch Tower was moved by the First Mountain Master from other places and placed on Demon Witch Mountain.

This Witch Tower has a total of nine floors. The lower six floors are for Daoist realms, and the upper three floors can only be entered by Heavenly Venerable realms.

This time the mountain master assessment was held on the lower six floors, to be precise, on the bottom three floors.

In Demon Witch Mountain, if a mountain lord dies, the mountain lords in the next order will be able to take the place, and this time, the last nine of the ninety-nine mountain lords are running.

According to what Jiang Xiying said before, in this election, there are four Dao Fruit level, and the rest are the first step of Dao Realm, and the number of participants of the first step of Dao Realm is as many as 300.

Those who can achieve Daoism, whether in the big world or in chaos, are not just ordinary people. They are all people who have achieved great accomplishments. Talent, luck, opportunity, and character are all indispensable.

Moreover, the Demon Witch Mountain where they are is Sword Demon Witch, and the sword is a killing weapon, and its combat power is stronger than other realms.

Next, these more than 300 kendo practitioners will compete for nine places, and one can imagine how difficult it is.

Han Yi went to the place where Witch Tower was. On the way, more and more Daoist realms gathered together. All the Daoist realms gathered at a distance without talking to each other and were wary of each other.

Formlessness's sword intent permeated the chaos and collided, but it was mainly based on testing, and it was withdrawn at the first touch without letting go.

Arriving in front of the Demon Witch Mountain Daoist formation, Han Yi took out the purple sword card. A ray of light appeared on the sword card and fell towards the Daoist formation. A hole opened in the Daoist formation, allowing him to step in alone.

After stepping into the Dao formation, Han Yi saw a nine-story Witch Tower.

What surprised him was that the Witch Tower looked ordinary from the outside.

The height of each floor is about ten meters, and the height of the entire tower is also within a hundred meters.

The color of the tower is dark gray, and in appearance, it is the most common, extremely ordinary Daoist tower.

At this moment, hundreds of monks were standing or sitting cross-legged in mid-air around this gray tower that was less than a hundred meters tall, or they were concentrating with their eyes closed, or they were constantly exploring the surroundings.

Han Yi looked at the Daoists in front of the gray tower and his eyes moved.

Among those Daoists, there was one whom he was not unfamiliar with, because he had met him once in the chaos outside the Primordial Antiquity aura.

It is surprisingly the third mountain master of Demon Witch Mountain and the master of Wangxi mountain. (End of chapter)
