The investigators sent by the five Dragon Country factions to investigate the Bloodthirsty Sect quickly reported the situation to the portal base.
Besides this village, Dragon Country investigators were also present in other villages.
The information gathered by the Dragon Country investigators in other villages also indicated that the Bloodthirsty Sect was cruelly harming ordinary villagers.
Information about the Bloodthirsty Sect continuously converged at the portal base.
Su Han looked at the investigation report on the Bloodthirsty Sect and said, "It seems we were right to use missiles to bomb the Bloodthirsty Sect. This Bloodthirsty Sect is indeed as I said, a menace to the region. If only we had used a nuclear bomb to obliterate them back then!"
Chu Shi, who was sitting beside him, said, "Deputy Minister Su Han, if a nuclear bomb were used, the surrounding villages near the Bloodthirsty Sect would have been caught in the blast."
Su Han nodded and said, "I know."
Su Han understood the situation of the Bloodthirsty Sect based on the investigators' reports.
Around the Bloodthirsty Sect's stronghold was a bloody forest. Outside the bloody forest was an ordinary forest, and within the ordinary forest were some villages. Although these villages were poor, they could still survive. After the Bloodthirsty Sect placed those wild beasts in the forest outside the villages, the connection between these villages and the outside world was severed. Later, the Bloodthirsty Sect continuously drained the villagers' blood and so on.
Seeing these investigations, Su Han felt the Bloodthirsty Sect was truly detestable.
Su Han said, "Damn it, these people are truly detestable. Such a Bloodthirsty Sect. In that case, let Dragon Country handle them!"
Su Han paused and then amended his statement, "Well, since we are in this cultivation world, let our Xuan Sect handle this Bloodthirsty Sect. By the way, what's with that bloody forest surrounding the Bloodthirsty Sect's stronghold? Why are there no creatures inside?"
Chu Shi replied, "According to instrument analysis, there are many blood-sucking plants in the bloody forest. These plants also possess the evil nature of the cultivation world. This evil nature allows the blood-sucking plants to attack humans like animals. Even some cultivators who are only at the early Qi Refining stage would become prey hunted by the bloody forest. Moreover, the bloody forest also produces a type of miasma."
Su Han said, "Those disciples of the Bloodthirsty Sect have already come out of the bloody forest. Since the bloody forest is dangerous, our people will not enter it. We will deal with them from the outside."
Su Han decided to eliminate the disciples of the Bloodthirsty Sect, and the base by the portal began dispatching personnel to eliminate them.
The disciples of the Bloodthirsty Sect also learned that they were targeted by a Xuan Sect. Therefore, they dispersed and entered the ordinary forests. They then passed through the ordinary forests, changed their disguises, and traveled to other towns, continuously moving away to escape Dragon Country's pursuit.
In this pursuit, over a thousand disciples of the Bloodthirsty Sect managed to escape. These over a thousand disciples disguised themselves as ordinary people and hid in various places. Some continued to travel, settling in cities hundreds or even thousands of kilometers away. Of course, after settling down, these disciples of the Bloodthirsty Sect would not remain idle, and when opportunities arose, they would continue to harm the ordinary people around them.
Seeing this situation, Su Han could only issue orders for Dragon Country to eliminate any disciples of the Bloodthirsty Sect who were found hiding among ordinary people in the future.
The sect leader of the Bloodthirsty Sect, under the missile strike from Dragon Country, finally decided to abandon the Bloodthirsty Sect's stronghold and take away the cultivation resources within. The sect leader of the Bloodthirsty Sect possessed the strength of the middle Golden Core stage. With the sect leader and a few elders at the Golden Core stage going into hiding, even Dragon Country's drones could not track their movements. These Golden Core stage cultivators were wary of missiles and drones, so as soon as a drone approached, they would use their magical artifacts to destroy it. Unless drones hid in the clouds, they could not evade detection by Golden Core stage cultivators.
Su Han believed that after Dragon Country's missile strike, if the sect leader of the Bloodthirsty Sect still intended to rebuild the Bloodthirsty Sect, he would definitely have to do so in a cave. After all, any sect rebuilt would likely be bombed by Dragon Country's missiles.
During the period of attacking the Bloodthirsty Sect, Su Han's cultivation had reached the peak of the Qi Refining stage. The next stage would be the Foundation Establishment stage. Su Han was very interested in his cultivation talent, especially since he had cultivated to this level so quickly. Therefore, to ascertain his cultivation talent, Su Han initiated a talent stone test within the Xuan Sect.
Since a talent stone was being used to test cultivation talent, it was decided to also test other Dragon Country individuals who had already entered the Qi Refining stage.
The cultivation talent testing took place at the Xuan Sect headquarters.
The Xuan Sect was located between the Baihe Gate and Chiyun Palace sects in the Southern Region, and it was also close to the Cliff Mountain Range, so the Xuan Sect's location was essentially in the central-northern part of the Southern Region. Surrounding the Xuan Sect, there were naturally some missile silos, laser cannons, and energy cannons deployed.
At this moment, in one of the halls of the Xuan Sect, all Dragon Country individuals who had cultivated to the Qi Refining stage were gathered. All Dragon Country individuals who had reached the Qi Refining stage were in the cultivation world of World 4, as cultivation could proceed much faster there.
In the hall, Su Han looked at these Qi Refining stage Dragon Country individuals. According to the data, over two hundred Dragon Country individuals had reached the Qi Refining stage in World 4. Of these, one hundred and fifty were explorers on this continent. The remaining fifty were here.
The cultivation technique "Qi Refining True Scripture" was available for every Dragon Country individual entering this world to learn. Dragon Country certainly had no intention of controlling cultivators like other sects. After all, the more strength Dragon Country had, the better. During this period, Dragon Country had actually allowed hundreds of thousands of people to enter.
With hundreds of thousands of people, only about two hundred had cultivated to the Qi Refining stage here, which proved that talent was indeed required for cultivation. Of course, among the remaining individuals who had not yet reached the Qi Refining stage, many had already sensed spiritual energy but were still unable to enter the Qi Refining stage.
For this talent test, the Xuan Sect had also specifically arranged it like other sects, placing it on a table.
A large, spherical spirit stone, adorned with numerous formations, served as the talent stone of this world. The talent testing formation on this talent stone was in a dormant state.
Su Han picked up a few spirit stones from the side and placed them on the formations on the talent stone. The cultivator talent testing formation on the talent stone then lit up.
It was precisely because the talent testing formation required spirit stones that smaller sects conducted the cultivation talent test as the final stage of their entry assessment.
Su Han said, "We will now begin testing cultivation talent. Those whose names are called, please come up and touch this talent stone. I will be tested last."
