Changhe Island is the second largest island in the West Sea. The island is long and narrow, and a large river originates from the mountains and runs thousands of miles from north to south.
Changhe Island got its name from this.
As the saying goes, a leaf in a small boat is carried away by the wind, and a thousand-mile river flows into the sea.
This big island is also the location of one of the nine branches of the Xihai Sect, the Changhe branch!
On the highest peak of Changhe Island, Zhouye Peak, Wang Chen met Master Changhe again.
"Disciple Wang Chen, meet the real person!"
Wang Chen respectfully bowed to Master Changhe who was sitting on the cloud platform.
The real person today is dressed in a white robe, without any ornaments on his body, with long hair hanging down his shoulders and a lazy look. Surrounded by undulating clouds and mist, and lush green pines and cypresses, he looks like a fairy.
"No need to be polite."
Master Chang He raised his hand gently, and a wisp of cloud air around the cloud platform was suddenly removed, and a chair formed beside Wang Chen in an instant: "Sit down."
"Thank you, Master, for giving me a seat!"
Wang Chen stood up and sat down on the cloud chair.
To be honest, when he received the order from this real person, he was quite puzzled.
I don’t understand why this pulse master summoned me.
But Wang Chen didn't panic at all, believing that he would get the answer soon.
"I have called you here this time to tell you two things."
Master Changhe's voice is calm and peaceful, with a power that makes people feel reassured and calm.
However, the first thing he said surprised Wang Chen.
"Wang Chen, are you willing to join my Changhe lineage?"
Wang Chen's thoughts whirled and he immediately leaned down and bowed down: "This is my disciple's honor!"
A faint smile appeared on Master Changhe's face: "I haven't finished speaking yet. If you agree, then the sect's reward will be gone."
Wang Chen replied without hesitation: "My disciple is very willing!"
In fact, to put it bluntly, it is to exchange the rewards he deserves for the qualification to enter the meridians.
How could you not agree to such a good thing!
You must know that in Xihai Sect, the disciples who have entered the sect are the real elites in the sect, and the benefits and benefits are unmatched by the entry-level disciples.
If you want to learn the superior skills of Xihaizong and the authentic direct transmission, you must have the status of entering the channel.
The authority of disciples who have entered the channel is also higher than that of disciples who have entered the channel.
In short, Wang Chen couldn’t miss this opportunity!
Master Changhe raised his hand again: "Don't worry, you must know that your merits are not enough to redeem the qualifications of entering the channel. Now let me tell you the second thing."
Wang Chen was speechless.
Master Changhe smiled slightly: "Do you know the small world?"
Wang Chen was stunned: "Disciple has heard a little bit."
He knew a long time ago that the world he was in was not the only one.
Beyond the realm of mountains and seas, there are many different worlds!
If divided according to levels, it can be roughly divided into small world, big world and upper immortal world.
The world of mountains and seas belongs to the big world!
Wang Chen once read in a classic that most of the small worlds are attached to the big world, and the big world is the lower realm of the upper fairy world.
When a monk's cultivation reaches the limit of his own realm, ascending to the upper realm is the only option.
Of course, besides ascension, there are other ways to go to the upper world.
Wang Chen's purpose of going through all the troubles to join the Xihaizong is to find a path to the sky!
The higher his status in the Xihai Sect, the higher the possibility of achieving his goal, so he is bound to gain the status of a disciple.
As for the small world, Wang Chen really knows very little about it.
All I know is that the small world is equivalent to a region. The area may be large or small, and the environment is extremely different.
Some small worlds do not have any living beings, and some have living beings but are extremely dangerous.
But what Master Chang He told Wang Chen was a secret that he had never heard before.
According to this high-level golden elixir, the Xihai Sect occupies a total of thirty-seven small worlds, but only eleven have been developed so far.
Less than half.
Developing a small world is a very difficult and dangerous thing, because small worlds worth developing usually have great obstacles and risks, and require long-term and continuous investment.
It could take hundreds of years!
The most important thing is that the small world has great restrictions on the realm of monks, and the highest level cannot exceed the golden elixir level.
Some small worlds cannot even be accommodated by the Zi Mansion!
If you want to develop such a small world, you can only send Qi training monks and innate warriors in. The high-end combat power of Xihaizong will not be able to work at all.
Since many small worlds can provide cultivation resources that are not available or lacking in the Shanhai Realm, Xihaizong has been working hard to open up new small worlds for thousands of years.
However, most of the small worlds that have been developed so far are still not very stable.
The natives, monsters and evil spirits in the small world all pose great threats to the pioneering power of Xihai Sect.
There are many victims for this.
A hundred years ago, the Xihai Sect established rules that required all disciples entering the Nine Meridians to go to a certain small world to experience and gain meritorious deeds matching their identity before they could truly enter the Nine Meridians.
Originally, Wang Chen's merits were not enough to enter the Changhe lineage.
But Master Changhe can give Wang Chen a chance.
As long as he goes to the small world and gets enough merit, he can become a member of Changhe Island.
Of course, this depends on Wang Chen's wishes.
He doesn't want to take risks, and Master Chang He won't force it. He can still get the rewards given by the sect.
Wang Chen really didn't expect that the requirements for entering the meridians were so high.
But now that he has embarked on this path, he has no intention of looking back or stopping.
"Disciple is willing!"
"very good."
Master Changhe nodded, and a flash of light popped up from his finger: "You have three small worlds to choose from."
This pearl-sized aura disappeared silently into Wang Chen's eyebrows, and instantly some more information appeared in his sea of consciousness.
The three small worlds that Master Chang He asked Wang Chen to choose were all realms that the Xihaizong had already developed but had not yet fully occupied and ruled, and still needed to continue to conquer.
The environments of the three small worlds and the enemies you will face after entering are very different.
The degree of danger is about the same.
Wang Chen quickly sorted through the information in his mind and made a decision quickly.
"Disciple chooses the underworld."
Master Changhe was surprised: "The underworld?"
Although the danger levels of the three small worlds he chose for Wang Chen were similar, the cultivation environment was undoubtedly the worst in the underworld, so normally it was the worst choice.
However, Wang Chen chose the worst one.
The Jindan Master pondered for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay."
He didn't think Wang Chen was that kind of reckless and ignorant monk, and the information he gave was detailed enough, so Wang Chen wouldn't have made an impulsive choice.
That's just as Wang Chen wishes!
Master Changhe flicked out a jade talisman with his fingers: "You have half a month to prepare."
