"Master, Ding Huan has arrived. I have brought him to the Guest Hall and am waiting for you." The voice of Mu elders came from outside the cave.
Shen Yi was taken aback, then stood up and exclaimed with joy, "Good, good, I'll go right away."
"You're very good." After leaving the cave, Shen Yi patted Mu Xing's shoulder and was in a great mood.
Mu Xing was also excited, since the news of Ding Huan's arrival was reported last time, he has changed from Mu Executive to Mu Elders.
But since Ding Huan borrowed the master's formation card, there has been no news from him, which made him rather worried and apprehensive.
What he did not expect was that Ding Huan had come to the Xianxia Dan Dao Gate again. It seemed that the master had not made a mistake in choosing people. Ding Huan was a person who valued integrity.

Ding Huan didn't have to wait long in the Guest Hall before he heard Shen Yi's resounding laughter: "Haha, Ding friend, long time no see."
Ding Huan followed Shen Yi into the Guest Hall.
When Shen Yi entered, the accompanying and polite disciples who were in charge quickly took leave.
Ding Huan also stood up and handed over the formation card to Shen Yi: "Thank you, Master Shen, I came here especially to return the formation card. Thank you for lending it to me." Shen Yi casually took the card: "It's all right, all right. Such a trivial matter is not worth mentioning."
He felt something was off immediately. The formation card had not been used yet.
Ding friend, have you used this formation card?" Shen Yi was surprised and took a close look at the formation card.
Ding Huan smiled, "I happened to meet a friend who led me in, so I didn't need to use the formation card."
"Alas, this..." Shen Yi saw that Ding Huan had not used the formation card and didn't know how to ask him for it at once.
"Master Shen, my two friends, have just arrived in the fourth realm of immortals. They have nowhere to go…"
Before Ding Huan could finish his sentence, Shen Yi waved his hand and said, "As long as the two of you don't mind joining our Xianxia Dan Dao Gate, you're welcome to do so. My Danxia Peak is in need of some disciples. Why don't you join my Danxia Peak? My alchemy skills are decent, but my cultivation methods are just average…" Qi Yonghan and Mu Zhen were not fools; they knew this was a good opportunity.
Shen Yi is the master of Xianxia Dan Dao Gate and invites them to join the Xianxia Dan Dao Gate, becoming disciples of the mountain peak.
This is clearly an attempt to recruit two disciples.
Qi Yonghan and Mu Zhen quickly bowed and knelt down: "Qi Yonghan and Mu Zhen pay their respects to Master."
Shen Yi laughed again: "Okay, my master mountain's disciples cannot be chosen like this. I will host a formal induction ceremony in a few days. You two will be my seventh and eighth disciples." Ding Huan did not expect Shen Yi to accept Qi Yonghan and Mu Zhen as disciples, which completely exceeded his plan.
In his view, Qi Yonghan and Mu Zhen becoming inner disciples of the Xianxia Dan Dao Gate was already good enough. The result was that they became master's disciples.
To have the master take them as disciples is a sincere gesture of goodwill towards the two of them.
For cultivators, the most important thing is inheritance.
Having taken two disciples, it is certain that he will impart his own Dao to them.
"Mu Elder..."
Shen Yi was used to calling Mu Xing, but after calling him, he remembered that Mu Xing had not arrived yet.
To his surprise, Mu Xing immediately replied and walked in. It turned out that Mu Xing had come along to the Guest Hall and was waiting outside.
Shen Yi secretly nodded in his heart. Mu Xing is very smart and decent. Although his cultivation is a bit weaker, promoting him to elder is still good.
"Mu Elder, please take Qi Yonghan and Mu Zhen to the Danxia Peak, arrange for them to stay there, and prepare for the formal induction ceremony for Master Mountain's disciples."
Hearing the master's words, Mu Xing was even more shocked in his heart.
The master's level of appreciation for Ding Huan cannot be described by common sense.
The Master Mountain of the Xianxia Dan Dao Gate is not an easy place to enter, and over these hundreds of years, the master has only received six disciples.
Including Qi Yonghan and Mu Zhen, this makes a total of eight disciples.
"Yes." Shocked in his heart, Mu Xing quickly led Qi Yonghan and Mu Zhen to leave.
"Mr. Ding, you can also live in my Danxia Peak." After Shen Yi and the others left, he invited Ding Huan again. Ding Huan smiled and said, "I will leave the fourth realm of immortals...
Hearing that Ding Huan was leaving the fourth realm of immortals, Shen Yi felt a bit disheartened.
"But before he could say anything, Ding Huan once again said: 'Leaving the fourth realm of immortals is indeed certain, but there is no need for it to be so urgent. I have gained some experience in searching for the divine wellspring of immortality, and if the master does not mind, I would like to try and find a few springs for Xianxia Dan Dao Gate...' Shen Yi stood up excitedly: 'Mr. Ding, I have always wanted to invite you to search for the divine wellspring of my sect, but I was afraid it would be too abrupt. Such good fortune, how could I possibly mind? Ding Huan stood up and said: 'There is no delay, master. Why don't we go right away?'"
Shen Yi said with a serious face: "Mr. Ding, as soon as I met you, I felt a connection. Let's be like brothers and sisters. My Dao name is Mulan. Calling me the master is too formal." Ding Huan was not at all polite: "Then I will do as you say, Mulan brother. Please."
The Xianxia Dan Dao Gate seems to be smaller than the Bahe Immortal Way.
But Ding Huan felt that the atmosphere of this sect was stronger than that of Bahe Immortal Way after entering the various peaks of Xianxia Dan Dao Gate.
Shen Yi brought Ding Huan to the back of the mountain peaks where the sect was located, and sighed, "There used to be a divine wellspring here in the past, but it had been repeatedly attacked by immortal pests, and now the wellspring has long since dried up."
Our Xianxia Dan Dao Gate currently lacks the most essential thing, which is divine wellspring energy. I have been stuck at the level of a third-grade immortal cultivator for a long time.
The four-level immortal herbs cultivated by our sect have all been used by me to refine fourth-grade immortal pills. However, after all these years, I have not succeeded. Instead, I have consumed a large amount of divine wellspring energy from our sect and a bunch of four-level immortal herbs.
Upon hearing this, Ding Huan felt a spark in his heart.
Can the sect cultivate four-level immortal herbs?
Doesn't this mean that this place can break through the Xuanxian realm and advance to a higher level?
If that's the case, then why hasn't Shen Yi been able to break through to the level of a fourth-grade Dan Master?
"Brother Mulan, can the divine energy of Xianxia Dan Dao Gate nurture intermediate-level immortal herbs?" Ding Huan asked another question.
If it's true, then it means his guess is wrong.
Because the ability to grow four-level immortal herbs suggests that the laws of heaven and earth here are not as he imagined, which is limited to cultivation up to the Xuanxian realm. The thing about the laws of heaven and earth is very mystical. If one can grow four-level immortal herbs, it means they can upgrade to the level of a fourth-level immortal formation master. Shen Yi nodded: "Yes, it is indeed possible to grow four-level immortal herbs, but in addition to the divine wellspring energy, it also requires higher-grade immortal materials for cultivation. These higher-grade materials are not available in the Fourth Immortal Realm; they basically come from the Fifth Immortal Realm."
"Brother Mulan, do you have such a crystal? Can you show me one?" Ding Huan clasped his hands together.
Shen Yi took out two crystals and handed them to Ding Huan: "This crystal is a strategic resource of our sect, entirely dependent on the provision from the Fifth Immortal Realm."
It is important to note that cultivating immortal herbs with these crystals also has its own methods. Many immortal herbs have the five elements properties, so different crystals are used during cultivation.
For example, the two crystals I gave you are of different elements. One is wood, and the other is earth. Wood-attribute crystals can only cultivate wood-attribute immortal herbs, while earth-attribute crystals can only cultivate earth-attribute immortal herbs.
Shen Yi was still explaining, but waves of astonishment were rolling in Ding Huan's heart.
As soon as Ding Huan touched these two immortal materials, he felt that their purity was not as high as he refined them. However, the profound laws contained in these materials were absolutely far superior to his own.
Ding Huan casually took out a high-grade immortal material that he had refined and compared it with the two crystals Shen Yi had given him.
It was obvious that the purity of the crystals he had refined was significantly higher than those given by Shen Yi.
However, what was even more apparent was that while the refined crystals he had produced were much purer than those given by Shen Yi, the profound laws contained within them were far from as high as those provided by Shen Yi.
If his cultivators were at a lower level, using his crystals to cultivate would result in faster progress.
Once the cultivators reach a certain level of cultivation, practicing with the crystals in his possession would be far inferior to using the two crystals given by Shen Yi.
"Ah, Ding Huan, your crystal is a high-purity lower-grade immortal crystal? Where did you get it?" Shen Yi was surprised to ask out loud.
A bitter smile flickered across Ding Huan's heart.
Ignorance is truly terrifying.
He had seen the immortal crystals used by everyone in the fourth realm, and they were definitely lower-grade immortal crystals. So he had always thought that the crystals he refined were absolutely high-grade immortal crystals.
Because the crystals he refined, whether in terms of purity or cultivation, were far superior to lower-grade immortal crystals.
Even several levels apart; what could it be if not a high-grade immortal crystal?
Only now, upon seeing the immortal materials Shen Yi had brought out, did he realize that the ones he refined were still lower-grade immortal materials.
The only difference was that the purity of the lower-grade immortal crystals he had refined was far beyond what ordinary lower-grade immortal crystals could compare to.
"Brother Mulan, are there different levels for lower-grade immortal crystals?" Ding Huan asked.
Shen Yi said: "There may not be different levels, but there is indeed a difference in purity. The lower-grade immortal crystals used in our fourth realm are no longer wanted in the fifth realm because they are all of extremely low purity."
Like your lower-grade immortal crystals, in the fifth realm they are considered as circulating goods, which can be considered as high-purity lower-grade immortal crystals.
Ding Huan fell silent. That being the case, it seems that the purity of the divine energy in the fourth realm is also not high.
That's why when he was cultivating, he needed to use the Cosmic Operation to construct a celestial orbit and remove the impurities in the divine energy, so as to specifically purify its purity. He had practiced in the celestial land of the third level, but he had never noticed that the spiritual energy needed to be purified.
How can spiritual energy contain impurities of the laws of Dao?
In this place, the divine energy contains traces of irregular Daoist patterns.
It can be seen that even if one cultivates in the fourth realm, regardless of their talent, their ultimate achievements are still limited.
Or, to put it another way, in this realm, the peak is the Xuanxian realm.
Ding Huan doesn't understand why Shen Yi is still trying to breakthrough to the level of a fourth-grade Dan Master.
But he was certain that Shen Yi, no matter how extraordinary his talent, could not refine fourth-grade immortal pills in the fourth realm.
It's not that Shen Yi's talent is insufficient; rather, it's that the laws of heaven and earth in this realm are not sufficient to allow Shen Yi to comprehend the refining techniques for fourth-grade immortal pills.
