yellow light, standing firm on the ground. Its body was covered in wounds, but it still refused to flee.The chaotic battle caused the purple mist to churn, and Qin Sang, who was quietly approaching t...The treasure ship appeared silently in a gigantic hall.

The hall was ten zhang high, and its style was quite rough. Several huge stone pillars supported the middle of it, with pits and hollows on their surfaces that had never been smoothed. Aside from these pillars, there were no other decorations in the hall. Behind it lay a dark and deep passage, leading to an unknown destination.

As soon as the treasure ship appeared, a squad of ten guards rushed over. These guards all wore the same standardized armor, engraved with rune prohibitions on it, making it a powerful defensive magic artifact.

Each guard hung a token at their waist, but the styles differed. The one leading the way was a cultivator at the Qi Condensation stage. The token he wore represented his position as captain.

The treasure ship trembled slightly, releasing the people inside before being captured by Che Yu-tao and disappearing into his palm.

Even with so many people filling the vast hall, it still seemed incredibly empty.

The captain of the guard hurried to Chè Yutáo's presence and bowed respectfully, saying: "Yu Yangzi, the garrison commander of Xuankang Pass, pays respects to Master Chè!"

Che Yu-tao hummed and said, "You arrange these people."

Before his words even finished, Che Yu-tao vanished from the spot.

Yuyangzi immediately agreed and turned to face the crowd. His eyes were cold, but when his gaze swept over cultivators like Qin Sang at the Qi Refining stage, he nodded with a hint of kindness.

"Greetings, I am Yu Yangzi, stationed at Xuankang Pass. As newcomers, there are a few rules you need to remember. First, all entry and exit must be through the city gates. Do not trespass over the walls or disrupt the formations, otherwise, you will be killed without mercy! Second, wherever you go, do not provoke the guards..."

Yuyangzi's voice was laced with a strong killing intent as he warned the crowd not to underestimate the rules of Hanging Skull Pass. He introduced many precautions and lightly said, "Ancient times!"

Here we go!

A guard stepped forward.

“Fellow cultivators from all the prominent families,” Yu Yangzi surveyed the crowd, “Those who wish to join the Xuan Skull Guard, please step forward. Gu Ji will lead you to the military camp for a qualification test. As for other fellow cultivators, please feel free to leave…”

The Xuanglui Guards are the guards who protect Xuanglui Pass.

Saying that, Yuyangzi stretched out his hand and pointed toward the outside of the hall.

A stir rippled through the crowd, and then representatives from each of the major families emerged. Only about half of them were willing to join the Skull Guard, while the rest left in groups.

After Elder Gu took the others away, only Shao Huashan's direct disciples remained. Yu Yangzi’s expression and tone had softened considerably.

"Fellow Daoists, this is your first time arriving at the Ancient Immortal Battlefield. You're not yet familiar with it. The jade slip contains everything you need to know. It includes a map of Xuankang Pass and parts of the Ancient Immortal Battlefield. Please don't destroy the jade slip, otherwise, you'll find it difficult to navigate the Ancient Immortal Battlefield..."

As he spoke, Yuanyangzi reached out and stroked the mustard seed bag. Then, countless jade slips flew out from it.

Qin Sang used his spiritual power to grasp a jade slip. After scanning it with his divine sense, he found that the contents were extensive. He had only glanced at it for a moment when Yu Yangzi continued, "Fellow Daoists, what you need to pay the most attention to is the last part of the jade pendant, the ancient Immortal Battlefield map. The map indicates the locations of most of the shelters. If any of you enter the Ancient Immortal Battlefield alone, before the celestial phenomena arrive or are chased by cloud beasts, be sure to remember to find a shelter in advance. This is the most important thing. Otherwise, if you are alone and have no barrier, once you are caught up in the celestial phenomena, at best you will be injured, and at worst you will die."

Upon hearing this, Qin Sang immediately looked to the back. As expected, there were big and small dots marked on the map.

Although this map is quite extensive, it only covers the outermost periphery and a portion of the second layer surrounding the ancient fairy battlefield.

The map's division of the ancient Xian battlefield was more detailed than Qin Sang had previously found.

Among them, the depths of the ancient fairy battlefield, where spatial cracks are densely distributed, is recognized as the core area where powerful cultivators from the ancient immortal world clashed. It is not only fraught with danger but also inhabited by many powerful cloud beasts. To this day, few dare to venture there.

As you move outward from the core, spatial rifts become sparser but no less dangerous. Even cultivators at the Golden Core stage must tread carefully, every step a gamble. No sect possesses the power to control this region.

Upon arriving at the outskirts of the Ancient Immortal Battlefield, it becomes a place where various sects vie for power.

The outskirts of the ancient fairy battlefield were divided into four layers: the inner layer, the middle layer, the outer layer, and the outermost layer.

These dots represent the locations of shelters, with fewer large dots representing small towns and markets built on ancient Xian battlefields.

>

These towns and market towns were mostly built from already explored secret realms, relying on the restrictions within the secret realms to resist celestial erosion and cloud beast attacks. They can be found in all four areas of the Ancient Immortal Battlefield, but there are fewer as you go deeper inside. They are the safest places in the Ancient Immortal Battlefield.

It is precisely because of these places that cultivators don't have to worry about a retreat.

And those small points of light were shelters built by cultivators who entered the ancient fairy battlefield. Some were hidden deep underground, while others took advantage of the terrain. Most of them were located in the outermost areas.

There's an unwritten rule in the ancient fairy battlefield: every person who enters the shelter leaves behind a few restrictions. Over time, these accumulate, making the shelter increasingly fortified. When celestial phenomena occur, passersby can enter to avoid danger.

These shelters are far less sturdy than the secret realms. If the power of the celestial phenomena is too terrifying, or if we are unfortunately discovered by a powerful cloud beast, these shelters cannot guarantee safety.

Fortunately, this kind of thing is not common in the outermost areas.

After countless years of exploration, the dangerous areas in the outermost regions have been largely mapped out. Major sects rely on the cities behind them to control this area, dividing their spheres of influence. Disciples are not allowed to cross borders lightly.

Now, this control is gradually radiating outwards to the outer regions.

Yuyangzi was right, without a map it's truly difficult to navigate the ancient Immortal Battlefield. There are similar maps for sale outside, but they cost money and are nowhere near as detailed as the one from Shaohua Mountain.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

After they had all read the Jade Scroll, Yu Yangzi spoke again: "Fellow Daoists who wish to join the Xūnkāiguì or Yǐngwèi, please step forward. Qi Refining cultivators can only serve as ordinary guards. A few of you Foundation Establishment seniors and junior brothers are similar, you can be commanders. If you want to join the Yǐngwèi, Qi Refining cultivators will also need a test."

> Implied, disciples at the foundation-building stage could choose freely.

In fact, according to the Jade Tablet's description, they have options beyond just the Skull Guardians and Shadow Guardians. For example, guarding a secret realm controlled by the sect's gatekeepers is not only a peaceful task but also allows them to share in the profits from the realm's produce.

However, those requirements are much higher. Qin Sang estimates that only people with a background could be qualified for them.

Just then, Qin Sang heard Yu Dayue's voice transmission, "Junior Brother Qin, this senior brother will take a step ahead first."

Qin Sang turned his head and saw Yu Da Yue nodding to him, then turned and walked out of the hall. There were quite a few fellow disciples who left with him. It seemed that Senior Brother Yu had made up his mind to venture into the Ancient Immortal Battlefield alone.
