Chapter 339 - 339: Test
If a cultivator at the Peak of Refining Void Stage hibernates after their fifth Great Heavenly Tribulation, sealing away all their vitalities and connections to the Heavenly Dao, they will have a total of three thousand years of activity.
It will be three thousand years before their sixth Great Heavenly Tribulation comes.
This seal should also seal the growth of their lifespan; otherwise, their lifespan would still be increasing while they hibernate, and wouldn’t they be struck by lightning when they come out?
This difficulty further increases the challenge of Refining Void cultivators wanting to avoid the Great Heavenly Tribulation, as very few can seal their own lifespan growth.
No wonder only the Holy Land can do this.
Even if a First-grade Immortal Sect could do it, they wouldn’t be able to do it on a large scale. Most likely, they would have to spend a fortune obtaining a limited amount of materials capable of sealing Refining Void cultivators from the Holy Land.
Or they might pay a hefty price to send Refining Void cultivators to the Holy Land to hibernate directly, though the Holy Land may not necessarily be willing to accept them.
“Qin Changqing, the power of the Holy Land is beyond your imagination. No First-grade Immortal Sect can compare to them.”
“Joining the Holy Land is the best choice for someone with your talent.”
The Purple Snow Holy Girl spoke again.
Her way of speaking was really straightforward.
With a simple prelude, she then extended a direct invitation.
Can’t help but say.
This approach, if applied to other geniuses, would indeed be effective.
Her mere presence represented a certain attitude, and with the Holy Land backing her, other geniuses with a first-grade spiritual root would weigh the pros and cons themselves.
A First-grade Immortal Sect indeed cannot compare to the Holy Land.
In the Holy Land, nothing is lacking. All you have to do is cultivate. As long as you don’t wander aimlessly, you won’t even have to worry about safety issues.
With the best resources, the best methods, and the best masters available.
If you encounter a bottleneck and get stuck, there’s also the best way out.
The reason why the Purple Snow Holy Girl started by discussing the hibernation of Refining Void and Nascent Soul cultivators was to showcase her intelligence.
There’s no need to emphasize the benefits of the Holy Land.
Qin Changqing was already in Refining Void. Wasn’t he already aware of this?
What do geniuses fear the most?
What they fear the most is getting stuck in a bottleneck like Master Butterfly Cloud and being unable to progress in their cultivation, which would eventually lead to their death by exhausting their lifespan.
However, within the Holy Land, these geniuses have a fallback option.
As long as you’ve reached the Refining Void stage, if you find yourself stuck for the rest of your life, you have another choice.
You can hibernate and look for a glimmer of hope in the future.
Moreover, you’d have plenty of time on your hands.
Even if you hibernate after the fifth Great Heavenly Tribulation, you still have three thousand years.
This fallback option is extremely tempting for geniuses.
Simultaneously, it also demonstrates the power of the Holy Land.
These hibernating Refining Void cultivators and Nascent Soul Experts have ample time. Occasionally, they can be summoned to act for a few months without causing any significant impact.
If faced with a formidable enemy, all of them can be fully awakened, summoning countless Refining Void cultivators and Nascent Soul Experts who have been hibernating for an unknown number of years- can you imagine the sheer power this would hold?
The number of these hibernating Refining Void cultivators and Nascent Soul Experts may be much greater than the current Holy Land.
Purple Snow Holy Girl, while influenced by her cultivation method to appear cold, is indeed intelligent.
From the start, she grasped the key point.
Not only did she showcase the might of the Holy Land, but she also clarified the point that the Holy Land can provide a fallback option for geniuses.
She was truly formidable.
Ordinary geniuses could hardly resist.
However, this time she encountered Qin Changqing.
Qin Changqing looked at her, “If I join the Holy Land, what will I need to verify and what kind of treatment will I receive?”
The Purple Snow Holy Girl replied, “Everyone who joins the Holy Land needs to verify their spiritual root and constitution, and may even be tested for other talents, as well as their temperament, insight, and true essence. If they have achieved a certain level of cultivation, they need to pass a strict test for their true essence attributes to prevent Demon Cultivators from infiltrating.”
“These verifications are only for the better and fairer treatment of each genius, giving them the treatment they deserve.”
Qin Changqing let out an “oh”.
“Regarding your treatment, once you pass the verification and a small test, the Questioning Heaven Academy is willing to make you the new Saint Son. Your treatment will exceed that of core disciples, and even elders won’t be able to compare with you.”
Purple Snow Holy Girl spoke again.
Saint Son!
Treatment far surpassing elders.
In Holy Land, it’s not easy to become an elder.
But the treatment of a Saint Son is even higher, which shows how much importance the Holy Land places on Saint Sons and Saintesses.
“What’s the test?” Qin Changqing asked.
“Very simple, if you join Questioning Heaven Academy right now, you must break through the second layer of Void Refinement within 50 years.”
“If you need more time to consider, when you are ready to join, we will set a certain test condition according to your cultivation level at that time.”
Purple Snow Holy Girl spoke.
Qin Changqing understood.
He didn’t speak, seemingly considering.
Purple Snow Holy Girl was very patient.
“You don’t have to reply to me now. This is the Sky Inquiry Order. If you decide at any time, you can inject your True Origin, there is a mark I left inside. You can activate this mark with your True Origin to send me a message.” After a while, Purple Snow Holy Girl handed him a mysterious token.
Qin Changqing accepted it.
Purple Snow Holy Girl stood up.
It seemed like she was preparing to leave.
It looked like she didn’t plan to settle Qin Changqing within this trip.
“In that case, I’ll take my leave now. I hope to receive good news from you.”
Purple Snow Holy Girl spoke.
Qin Changqing stood up and saw her out.
“By the way, as a sign of our interest in you, this Sky Inquiry Order has another function. If you encounter a strong enemy you cannot resolve, you will have one chance to activate the Sky Inquiry Order. Questioning Heaven Academy will ensure your safety, but we won’t solve this enemy for you.” Purple Snow Holy Girl turned and spoke.
While speaking, she was actually observing Qin Changqing.
However, she was disappointed.
Qin Changqing’s expression and gaze didn’t change because of her words.
“Goodbye.”
Without saying more, Purple Snow Holy Girl bade farewell in two words, then left Taixuan Peak with the girl in green.
Qin Changqing played with the Sky Inquiry Order in his hand, and after watching their figures disappear, he entered the Qin Mansion. He covered the Sky Inquiry Order with a prohibition formation and threw it into his storage bag.
He naturally would not join Holy Land. If he really had an Immortal Spirit Root, it would be better to join Holy Land from the beginning.
Now, even if he wants to join, it’s impossible with Holy Land’s strictness, his true spiritual root would be exposed after one test.
Moreover, Qin Changqing didn’t care about the benefits Holy Land offered.
As for the backup plan for geniuses, Qin Changqing had no worries.
No bottleneck could hold him back. With ten thousand three hundred years of refining void before the Big Heavenly Tribulation, if nothing unexpected happened, Qin Changqing would have become immortal by then.
However, there is no need to directly reject and aggravate Purple Snow Holy Girl.
Even Qin Changqing may send some of his children to Holy Land to take advantage in the future.
For now, Qin Changqing focuses on continuing his development and doesn’t plan on having much contact with Holy Land.
So Qin Changqing intentionally didn’t answer, letting Purple Snow Holy Girl think he was considering her offer.
He will keep the Sky Inquiry Order for now, and sealing it with prohibition formation is necessary.
What if they can locate him through that thing?
Although the possibility is small.
One should never harbor the intent to harm others, but always be on guard against others..
