"What is your name?"
Guanfei couldn't believe that the last chef to arrive made such delicious dishes.
But then again, it's not surprising. After all, the steward at her house had been using his power for his own gain and completely ignoring the needs of the mistress.
It's questionable whether the people he chose are even chefs.
Such a person deserves to be punished for his crimes.
"My name is Ding Huan, and this is my pet, the sixth one."
Ding Huan brought Old Six inside this time, as they would be going to the cultivation world together and Old Six was definitely going to tag along.
"How strong are your abilities?"
What Ding Huan didn't expect was that Guanfei asked a question completely unrelated to the cooks.
Ding Huan said sincerely:
"My strength is decent. Over the years, I've been all over the place and faced many dangers, and I've managed to overcome them all."
Guanfei nodded:
"You cook well. From tomorrow, you'll stay here and come with me."
"Yes." Ding Huan quickly responded.
...
After dealing with the night outside, the next morning, Ding Huan arrived at the Jin Mansion gate.
Ding Huan didn't wait long before seeing the door of the Jin Mansion open, with a large group of people carrying Guanfei emerging.
Guanfei said goodbye to her parents and family one by one, then waved at Ding Huan.
"Ding Huan, let's go."
Ding Huan quickly walked up with his backpack and Old Six.
He originally thought that as the fiancée of the Yan Yu Sect Master, Guanfei leaving the Jin Mansion would have a lot of maids and servants around her.
To his surprise, there were only two people with her, one of whom was him, and the other was a female servant.
"Qingyu, if Ding Huan has anything he doesn't understand, please teach him."
Guanfei said something to the female servant by her side.
"Yes, sister."
Ding Huan was puzzled when the female servant named Qingyu called her sister instead of Miss.
It seems that Qingyu has a special relationship with Guanfei.
Guanfei led Qingyu and Ding Huan directly to the Yan Yu Sect at Xianyuan Square, where an alien spacecraft had already landed.
"Please board the spaceship, Guanfei."
As Guanfei approached, a middle-aged man greeted her with a smile plastered on his face.
"Thank you, Qiong Zhi. Please show respect, Guanfei," Guanfei smiled and bowed before boarding the ship.
Ding Huan quickly followed Qingyu and Guanfei aboard the spacecraft with Old Six.
Ding Huan, with his powerful spiritual perception, had already heard someone talking behind him:
"With such limited spots, she not only brought two ordinary people but also a monkey."
"Shut up! You don't want to stay in Yan Yu Sect anymore?"
...
It was perhaps the second sentence that really silenced everyone, and no one continued to discuss the issue of Guanfei taking up too many spots in Yan Yu Sect.
Ding Huan could easily identify the speakers based on the location of the sounds, and he could tell they were from Yan Yu Sect.
It seemed that they must be sect affairs personnel from Yan Yu Sect who had been sent to the mortal world to recruit disciples alongside Qiong Zhi.
On the spaceship, there were actually enough seats, but Ding Huan didn't understand why it was so difficult for mortals to go to the cultivation world.
Extra one or two people, and it's still worth fussing over.
Yan Yu Sect is a major sect in the cultivation world, and their recruitment of disciples is very strict.
Although there are many people participating in the sect disciple recruitment at Xianyuan Square this time, Yan Yu Sect only recruited a total of twenty-three disciples.
Ding Huan overheard the conversation outside and learned that all twenty-three disciples were apparently outer sect disciples.
This made Ding Huan realize that the sect's recruitment of new disciples was not just about talent. He knew that at Xianyuan Square, there were many people with excellent talents participating in the sect disciple selection.
Since all of them are outer sect disciples, it means that Yan Yu Sect's inner disciples are promoted through other methods.
At this time, not only Yan Yu Sect, but also the spaceships of other sects were leaving one after another from Xianyuan Square.
There were thirty-two people on the Yan Yu Sect's spaceship, including twenty-five outer sect disciples and Guanfei and Ding Huan.
The remaining seven people consisted of one who controlled the spaceship, one who was the welcoming Qiong Zhi, four who were responsible for recruiting disciples, and another unknown person.
The last one, with the strongest cultivation base, was a elder of Yan Yu Sect.
Ding Huan dared not use his spiritual perception to scan, but he could tell that the elder of Yan Yu Sect's cultivation might not be as strong as the seven who were previously mentioned, but the difference would not be too far.
After Yan Yu Sect's spaceship left the Xianyuan Square, Ding Huan still felt some confusion in his heart.
With the speed of this spacecraft, flying for over a month, how far away is Yan Yu Sect?
And now that everyone is seated on the spacecraft, what does Guanfei need a chef like him for?
The spacecraft did not fly for over a month as Ding Huan had imagined. It only took two days to land.
As Ding Huan followed the elder of Yan Yu Sect out of the spacecraft, he was still puzzled, is that it?
However, the surrounding spiritual energy indicated that this was still the mortal realm.
A huge ripple wall appeared in front of Ding Huan.
Ding Huan had seen a lot in his time, but he had never seen a ripple wall before.
At this moment, the elder stood in front of the ripple wall and loudly spoke:
"Everyone, once I open the Dao and Mortal Wall, please enter in sequence, and try to move as quickly as possible."
After saying that, the elder took out a flag and waved it, and a portal appeared in the ripple wall.
Qiong Zhi was the first to walk into the portal, and the others followed. Ding Huan, Old Six, and Qingyu followed Guanfei and walked into the ripple wall.
Only at this moment did Ding Huan understand why mortals could not enter the cultivation world.
No mortal can pass through this ripple wall.
The elder of Yan Yu Sect opened a door through the flag, and the cost must have been quite high.
Ding Huan wasn't clear about the cost, but he suspected it must be related to the resources of Yan Yu Sect.
The one in charge of the spaceship might be a permanent disciple of Yan Yu Sect in the mortal realm and did not follow along.
In this way, the total number of people who arrived became thirty-one.
A surge of rich celestial and earthly energies swept over, and Ding Huan couldn't help but heave a long sigh.
This is the true cultivation world, and if he had cultivated, it would be like paradise to practice here.
The only thing that confused Ding Huan was that the place he saw was completely barren.
The sky was sprinkled with some dim red light, as if it had been stained with blood.
There are strong beings here. He didn't dare to randomly use his spiritual perception, but Ding Huan's eyesight is very strong.
As far as the eye can see, there are no signs of human life.
Where are the cultivation sects?
Why are there no cultivation sects in such a rich celestial and earthly energy place?
Just as Ding Huan was still puzzled, Qiong Zhi stepped forward:
"Everyone, you are all the new disciples recruited by our Yan Yu Sect this time, but whether you can become a disciple is still uncertain."
As Ding Huan was just a chef, he wasn't too concerned about this statement.
The twenty-three outer sect disciples, however, were as pale as the earth when they heard this.
What does this mean?
Could they still be eliminated after coming here? If they were eliminated, wouldn't they be dead in the cultivation world?
Qiong Zhi continued:
"From here to Yan Yu Sect, we still have at least a month's journey ahead of us. During this one-month journey, we will pass through several dangerous areas, including strong beasts and sinkholes."
As for other sects, I can't say or know much, but seventy years ago, when our Yan Yu Sect returned to the sect after the recruitment of disciples was over, all of us were lost in these dangerous areas.
Not to mention you all, but even the sect's executives and elders didn't return...
"Why didn't they take the spaceship to return?" someone asked in a low voice.
Qiong Zhi snorted coldly:
"From the beginning to now, not only our cultivation sects but even the powerful beings from the world of transcending to heaven dare not take a spacecraft and fly through this region."
"Do you know how strong the most powerful flying beasts in this region? They can easily sweep across half of the cultivation sects in the cultivation world."
Everyone took a deep breath in.
In the eyes of these new disciples, the sects in the cultivation world are all populated by beings like immortals.
There are countless sects like this in the cultivation world, but what did Qiong Zhi just say? A single beast can easily sweep across half of the cultivation sects.
Qiong Zhi didn't bother to pay attention to the shock of these new disciples, and his tone became increasingly serious:
"Therefore, everyone must follow Elders Gu and me closely, not allowed to leave the team alone, not allowed to shout loudly. Did you hear that?"
Everyone should say yes.
What a joke! Going through such dangerous areas, even if they let them go alone, they would be afraid.
Ding Huan finally understood why Guanfei needed a chef who was also strong.
If Guanfei really paid a lot of attention to food in such a remote area, it would indeed be difficult to endure.
This also shows Guanfei's temperament as the eldest daughter.
In such a place brimming with danger, everyone is here seeking divine favors, yet she still thinks about her food and meals. It's truly hard to describe.
This is because she is not the wife of the young sect master, otherwise, she would not have the qualifications to bring a chef along with her.
After saying a few words, Qiong Zhi and Gu both walked forward.
Ding Huan, the other twenty-five outer sect disciples, and Old Six walked in the middle, with the remaining four Yan Yu Sect cultivators at the back.
Maybe it's because Qiong Zhi's previous warning about the dangers along the way made everyone else silent on the journey.
Everyone was being very cautious and walking in the middle of the road.
The disciples who were selected into the sect, although they were new, had decent skills.
So this journey was very fast. When the sky was just turning dark, hundreds of miles had been walked.
Ding Huan noticed that some of the new disciples had very weak cultivation bases and were struggling to keep up.
They couldn't keep up with this little distance, and with even longer roads ahead, they were definitely going to fall behind.
Ding Huan didn't believe that Qiong Zhi would slow down the entire team just because these disciples were moving slowly.
Of course, it had nothing to do with him. Like the rest of Yan Yu Sect's disciples, he was just passing by.
When a vast canyon appeared before everyone, Qiong Zhi stopped.
"Today, we will rest here and enter the Great Canyon tomorrow early in the morning."
Even the elders and executives of Yan Yu Sect wouldn't dare to travel at night with so many new disciples.
Ding Huan looked at the distant canyon, with the sides covered in uneven jungles that stretched on for as far as the eye could see.
Even though the distance was still far away, Ding Huan could faintly see the misty clouds surrounding the jungles in the distance.
Even before stepping into the Great Canyon, a sinister atmosphere enveloped everyone.
