Chapter 1448: Chapter 1407 Screening

Of course, aside from that, Lu Chuan did manage to gather some useful information.

He learned from a young girl that every month, the Penglai Immortal Domain sends people to nearby villages and camps to select talented individuals to bring into the Immortal Domain. Coincidentally, today was the day they were expected to arrive.

Upon hearing this, Lu Chuan’s eyes suddenly lit up.

They say opportunities come when you least expect them, don’t they?

He had been pondering how to blend in, not expecting the chance to come so soon.

Hiding in the crowd, completely concealing his aura, Lu Chuan appeared as an ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivator. Yet in this group, even someone at the Foundation Establishment was considered strong.

After all, they looked down on the martial artists’ practices and lacked proper cultivation techniques, so most were practicing half-understood methods passed down from who knows where. Those who could break through to the Foundation Establishment Realm were regarded as geniuses.

Not long after, Lu Chuan suddenly noticed a small breach appear in the array. Upon closer inspection, he indeed saw someone emerge from the Penglai Immortal Domain and head straight towards the camp where Lu Chuan was located.

From a distance, the person coming on behalf of the Immortal Domain was merely a first-tier Golden Core cultivator. His aura was unstable, obviously having just broken through, and he wore an expression of deep resentment, likely feeling utterly bored with such work, or perhaps he was simply arrogant.

But none of that mattered anymore. After two conflicts, Lu Chuan was thoroughly disappointed with the Penglai Immortal Domain.

Adhering to the principle of rather killing by mistake than letting one go, he now deemed everyone from the Penglai Immortal Domain as enemies!

Thinking this, Lu Chuan pushed through the crowd, moving forward relentlessly. Those who were shoved aside wanted to protest, but upon sensing Lu Chuan’s Foundation Establishment aura, immediately held their tongues.

It must be known that reaching the Foundation Establishment means transcending ordinary people. No one dared, nor wanted, to cause a conflict at this moment.

“Everyone, please remain quiet. We will select one by one. Today, I will be taking three people back to the Immortal Domain, so there is a good chance for you.”

Three people?

Lu Chuan found it laughable.

The vast Penglai Immortal Domain could take in everyone here without feeling any crowding.

To think, they are like a band of robbers claiming to be rulers.

And these people vying for a spot were even more foolish, smug with excitement over such a slight chance.

Of course, despite his thoughts, Lu Chuan still needed to sneak in.

The task his grandfather had entrusted to him had reached its final step; with the Heavenly Pendant within reach, Lu Chuan was determined to infiltrate, no matter the difficulty!

Soon enough, Lu Chuan reached the front row, using his physique to push most people aside. Seeing his robust build, others dared not approach.

However, it wasn’t long before someone noticed something amiss.

They had all been gathered here for a long time, with only so many faces from each camp or village, and were relatively familiar with one another.

But Lu Chuan, a completely unfamiliar face, was someone no one knew.

However, Lu Chuan had prepared a reason beforehand. While some suspected him, he easily dispelled their doubts.

“I’m from Jiangbei Provincial City. A few days ago, the Penglai Immortal Domain dispatched dozens of people, flying in the sky over Jiangbei in a rage. Faced with the Immortal Domain’s cultivators, that group of martial artists instantly became silent.

Usually so arrogant, but when it came to the truth, they were all cowardly! I am ashamed to associate with them, and thus I wish to join the Immortal Domain.”

“See, what did I say? Those martial artists are nothing! All they do is fight each other like fools!”

“Exactly! When they encounter the Penglai Immortal Domain’s cultivators, aren’t they just obedient, like dogs!”

Lu Chuan was naturally talking nonsense. After all, he was only trying to get in, and considering the deeds of the Martial Alliance, he had no qualms about saying a few words against them.

But the others gathered here clearly spoke from genuine feelings.

Lu Chuan could completely understand the mindset of these spineless individuals; they sought attention, wanted to be on the stage, yet either lacked talent or refused to work hard, becoming more twisted and extreme in their hearts, resulting in what they’d become now.

Truly pitiful to the extreme.

Lu Chuan pulled his gaze back, looking toward the Golden Core cultivator, who had also noticed him.

Among this bunch, Lu Chuan was the youngest and also at the Foundation Establishment Realm. His talent was evidently outstanding, and with some cultivation, he was sure to grow rapidly.

Thus, as expected, Lu Chuan was chosen, becoming one of the three.

Soon, the three chosen were decided. Besides Lu Chuan, the other two were women, around thirty years old, still at the sixth or seventh level of the Qi Cultivation Stage. Their excitement upon being selected was palpable, constantly casting flirtatious glances at the Golden Core cultivator to capture more of his attention.

However, the Golden Core cultivator ignored them entirely. His presence here was solely to complete his task.

“You three, come with me.”

“Alright, alright! Little Brother, what’s your name?”

“Yes, Little Brother, we can’t just keep calling you that, can we?”

“What I am called doesn’t matter. You’d better keep quiet; there are as many people in the Qi Cultivation Stage as there are hairs on an ox. If you keep on yapping, I don’t mind replacing you.”

At this, the two women immediately closed their mouths, giving a slightly awkward laugh.

At the front of the array, Lu Chuan watched attentively as the Golden Core cultivator took out a token and placed it on the array. In just a few breaths, a passageway large enough for a person appeared in the array.

The Golden Core cultivator turned around and said in a deep voice, “Hurry inside, don’t waste time.”

“Yes, yes, we’re going in now!”

The two women nodded zealously and quickly entered the array, with Lu Chuan following closely behind, while the Golden Core cultivator brought up the rear.

Ten seconds after he removed the token, the passage gradually disappeared, and the array returned to wholeness. Looking outside again, Lu Chuan’s sight was blocked by the array, seeing only a barrier shooting up to the sky, isolating the Penglai Immortal Domain from the outside world.

Curious, Lu Chuan asked, “From outside the array, can’t our voices be heard? It seems one can’t see outside from within.”

“Of course not. This array was crafted by twelve Great Accomplishment Realm predecessors back in the day. How could these mortals possibly see through it?”

“I see, then I’m relieved.”

“W-Wha—what do you mean relieved?”

Lu Chuan curved his lips into a smile, his aura rising steadily until finally, his Spirit Splitting Realm cultivation was revealed!

“I’m saying, now I can act without worry.”

Before anyone could react to his words, Lu Chuan struck, turning the two women into a mist of blood. In the next instant, ghostly arms manifested from his back, clapping heavily together.

“This place forbids the use of spiritual power!”

“This place forbids the use of magic artifacts!”
