However.

He was not afraid. At the very least, those who could see his performance must be Monarch-level Nascent Soul cultivators. Such cultivators held respected status and would not deign to scheme against him.

As for the other Foundation Establishment cultivators in the Cave Heaven, Han Yi had no fear at all.

After entering the Cave Heaven, he thought about and analyzed every detail of his journey. Han Yi did not find anything amiss and eventually let his guard down.

“Rest for now. We will leave Immortal City tomorrow and return to the sect.”

On the following day.

The Xuandan Sect commenced their journey back.

In Han Yi’s heart, there was some worry. If he were to encounter Master Tian Xin blocking their way, it would be a difficult situation.

However, after more than half a month, crossing numerous large regions of Qianzhou, and entering Shu State, their journey had been peaceful. This allowed Han Yi to breathe a sigh of relief.

More than a month later, the Immortal Boat finally reached their destination and landed on Xuandan Peak.

Descending from the Immortal Boat and stepping on the ground of Xuandan Peak once more, Han Yi found it hard to remain calm.

A moment later.

With everyone gone, Qin Wuxian instructed Han Yi to find Yuan Shun on his own, then left Xuandan Peak. Han Yi expressed his gratitude and entered Xuandan Hall.

Today, the one presiding over Xuandan Hall was Supreme Elder Si Hongxue. In more than two years, Si Hongxue had also recovered from her injuries. At least from the surface, one couldn’t tell whether she had been injured or not.

Si Hongxue was the only female cultivator among the Supreme Elders of the Xuandan Sect.

She appeared to be in her thirties, with a beautiful face and long hair. Her complexion was gentle, and she did not seem to have the air of a Supreme Elder at all.

Han Yi paid his respects and bowed. The other party nodded in response. He crossed the main hall and went straight into the side room to see Yuan Shun.

“You have returned.”

Yuan Shun looked at Han Yi with a somewhat emotional tone.

“Elder Qin has already told me about your matters in advance, but I wanted to hear it from you again to see if there’s anything missing.”

Han Yi nodded: “More than a year ago, 1 took an Immortal Boat from Xuanxue Peak back to the sect. On the same boat was Elder Brother Li Wenbin…”

He recounted his experiences over the past year, taking enough time to burn an incense stick.

Among them, Han Yi briefly touched upon his fights with Lu Zhi and Yuan Changtian, stating that he had deterred Lu Zhi using a Third-stage Spiritual Talisman and subsequently killed Yuan Changtian.

The crucial point lay with Tian Xin Monarch. Han Yi always felt that Master Tian Xin’s intentions were unclear and that there might be hidden dangers he couldn’t see through.

Upon hearing this, Yuan Shun’s brows furrowed and remained so for a long time.

A moment later, he shook his head and spoke.

“Heavenly Will Sect, Master Tian Xin.”

“This man behaves strangely. He must have approached you because of the Daqian Emperor’s birthday. However, I don’t know what his specific purpose is. If you encounter him again, be careful.”

“But if you are within the Xuandan Sect and he dares to come, don’t blame me for being impolite.”

As he said this, a cold glint flashed in Yuan Shun’s eyes.

“In addition, I need to tell you something. A year ago, remnants of the Blood God Sect appeared. Among the eight sect Elders on the Immortal Boat you took, five fell. Even more Inner Sect disciples suffered casualties.”

Han Yi’s heart trembled, and a dangerous light flashed in his eyes: “Were the Blood God Sect remnants killed?”

Yuan Shun’s face turned solemn.

“On the day when the Soul Tablets of the sect Elders shattered, I left the sect and rushed over. However, by the time 1 arrived at the mountain forest, the battle had already ended.”

“More importantly, someone messed up the Heavenly Mechanism, making it so that even I couldn’t deduce the whereabouts of the Blood God Sect remnants.”

“The one who interfered with the Heavenly Mechanism is above me in terms of realm.”

As he said this, Yuan Shun’s expression had become incredibly solemn.

Han Yi, who was standing there, felt his heart skip a beat.

If the one was even higher in realm than Yuan Shun, wouldn’t that mean they were at least a Mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator? Such cultivators were well-known figures in Shu State.

Han Yi naturally understood what this implied.

“However, open schemes have their own countermeasures, and in response to hidden schemes, rats have their own paths. We may not be able to find them, but someone absolutely can.”

“I have spent a great amount of money, employing some… Never mind. All you need to know is that those people are doomed to die.”

After hearing this, Han Yi understood. From Yuan Shun’s words, it seemed that he had spent money on employing certain people, possibly assassins or hired cultivators. Those people worked for money, and arrangements had already been made, so there was no need to worry.

Since Yuan Shun had already said so, Han Yi also let go of his concerns.

“Lastly, regarding the Daqian Emperor’s rewards, Elder Qin should have informed you already. There is no problem with those rewards. It can only show that your performance in the Cave Heaven world has caught the Emperor’s attention. He has high expectations of you.”

“Perhaps in two years’ time, your name might appear on the Qianlong List of the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion.”

“Qianlong List?” Han Yi was puzzled.

“Not ’Qianlong’ as in ‘hidden dragon’, but ‘Qianlong’ as in ‘dragon of Daqian’.”

After Yuan Shun’s explanation, Han Yi finally understood.

In Daqian, there were three rankings: the Qianlong List, the Master List, and the Monarch List.

The Qianlong List recorded the top one hundred Foundation Establishment cultivators in Daqian. Those chosen were not ranked by strength, but by potential. Those who made it onto the List might only be at the Foundation Building Early Stage, but they had great potential. If they were strong in their realm, they might have a chance to be on the List.

As for the Master List and Monarch List, strength was the determinant factor. Those who made it onto these Lists were usually Late-stage or even Perfect-stage cultivators.

The Qianlong List was updated every ten years, the Master List every one hundred years, and the Monarch List every thousand years.

According to statistics, 50% of those on the Qianlong List could break through to the Golden Core Stage. While it might not seem impressive, it’s worth noting that the probability of normal Foundation Establishment cultivators breaking through to the Golden Core Stage was less than 10%..
