A red Daoist nodded and said, "That's right, it seems we can only join a faction to enter that secret realm. If a Golden Immortal also recruited people, that would be great. Let's check the announcements over there to see if there's any recruitment notice from a Golden Immortal."
A crowd had already gathered in front of the announcement board.
Su Han and the red Daoist approached the board.
The red Daoist excitedly exclaimed, "Let me see, let me see if a Golden Immortal is recruiting people to explore the secret realm this time."
With his Heavenly Immortal cultivation, Su Han had already scanned the contents of the announcement from afar. However, Su Han didn't want to dampen the red Daoist's enthusiasm at this moment.
The red Daoist read from beginning to end with seriousness and then said with disappointment, "There's no recruitment announcement from a Golden Immortal. I really wanted to join a Golden Immortal's faction!"
A nearby cultivator said, "Hahaha, you want to join a Golden Immortal's subordinate? A Golden Immortal has so many subordinates, they certainly don't lack one ordinary Nascent Soul stage cultivator like you."
The surrounding cultivators had also reached the Nascent Soul stage. It could be said that most of the people crowding here to read the announcements were of the Nascent Soul stage. Loose cultivators in the Tribulation Crossing stage were already finding others in small groups in the distance, intending to venture into the secret realm together. Of course, there were also scattered Tribulation Crossing stage individuals at the announcement board, hoping to join a Heavenly Immortal's faction.
Among the announcements posted, there were a total of thirty recruitment notices. The majority of these thirty announcements were posted by a single Heavenly Immortal. However, some were joint recruitment efforts by two Heavenly Immortals.
Many people looking at the announcements were more eager to join Cheng Ji Heavenly Immortal's faction.
Cheng Ji Heavenly Immortal's recruitment announcement was posted solely by Cheng Ji Heavenly Immortal himself. As someone only a sliver away from being a Golden Immortal, Cheng Ji Heavenly Immortal was confident enough to post these recruitment announcements alone.
A Nascent Soul stage cultivator looked at the announcement and said, "These Heavenly Immortals' recruitment offers are all for one top-grade spirit stone. All recruitment offers have the same conditions. There's no need to insist on joining Cheng Ji Heavenly Immortal's faction for exploration."
"Joining other Heavenly Immortals' factions also offers one top-grade spirit stone."
"But joining Cheng Ji Heavenly Immortal is much better. After all, Cheng Ji Heavenly Immortal is so powerful. Even two Heavenly Immortals cannot compare to him alone."
At this moment, a Earth Immortal on the stage, after observing the crowd below for a while and overhearing the discussions at the announcement board, directly flew to the announcement board to begin his promotion.
"Welcome everyone to join Lord Cheng Ji Heavenly Immortal's exploration team. Don't worry, in addition to the one top-grade spirit stone for joining Cheng Ji Heavenly Immortal's exploration team, Cheng Ji Heavenly Immortal will also give you an additional five top-grade spirit stones. Two top-grade spirit stones will be given before entering the exploration, and the remaining three will be given after the exploration is completed. Furthermore, you will receive the lion's share of the cultivation resources obtained from the exploration."
After this promotion by Jun Ji Earth Immortal, who was under Cheng Ji Heavenly Immortal, many people immediately expressed their desire to join Cheng Ji Heavenly Immortal's exploration team.
However, many others still wished to join other Heavenly Immortals' exploration teams, as there were still twenty-nine other announcements.
Under this recruitment effort by the Earth Immortal, one-fifth of the people present joined Cheng Ji Heavenly Immortal's exploration team.
The Earth Immortal immediately began registering them on the spot.
The red Daoist, watching from the side, said, "Daoist Su Han, why don't we also join Cheng Ji Heavenly Immortal's exploration team!"
Su Han asked, "Daoist Hong, are the cultivation resources within the secret realm more important, or are the six top-grade spirit stones more important?"
The red Daoist directly replied, "Of course the cultivation resources within the secret realm are more important. We can earn back those top-grade spirit stones in the future."
Su Han said, "Then it's simple. We are entering the secret realm for the cultivation resources within. Even if Cheng Ji Heavenly Immortal recruits us with more spirit stones, we should still join an exploration team under a Heavenly Immortal that suits us."
The red Daoist asked, "Then which Heavenly Immortal's exploration team should we join?"
Su Han directly pointed to the name of a Heavenly Immortal at the end of the announcement and said, "Let's join this Heavenly Immortal's faction!"
The red Daoist looked at the name at the very end, which read Yu Tong Heavenly Immortal.
The red Daoist said, "This Yu Tong Heavenly Immortal's name is at the end, while Cheng Ji Heavenly Immortal is at the beginning of the announcement. It seems the announcements are ranked by strength. Is Yu Tong Heavenly Immortal the weakest? Do we really have a chance if we join Yu Tong Heavenly Immortal's exploration team?"
Su Han nodded and said, "We have a chance. Yu Tong Heavenly Immortal's exploration team will surely not have many members. When we distribute the spoils, we will receive more benefits. Look, if you join Cheng Ji Heavenly Immortal's exploration team, Cheng Ji's exploration team will definitely have a very large number of members. When the numbers are high, we will receive very little."
The red Daoist listened and thought it made sense. With more people, the average share would definitely be less.
The red Daoist said, "Indeed, we cannot join Cheng Ji Heavenly Immortal's exploration team, which has too many members. Then let's join Yu Tong Heavenly Immortal's exploration team. Let me see how to join Yu Tong Heavenly Immortal's exploration team?"
The red Daoist took a look, and to join Yu Tong Heavenly Immortal, one had to reach Yu Tong Heavenly Immortal's dojo within three days to join.
"Three days' time. Hmm, there's still plenty of time. Let's set off in two days. Yu Tong Heavenly Immortal's dojo is not too far from here."
Su Han nodded and said, "Okay, let's set off in two days. We'll arrange a time and place to meet, and then we'll depart together for Yu Tong Heavenly Immortal's dojo."
The red Daoist asked with some surprise, "Daoist Su Han, where are you going these two days? Aren't you going to stroll around with me?"
Su Han said, "I still want to cultivate properly for these two days."
The red Daoist's face showed a look of surprise, "Daoist Su Han, you are so diligent in your cultivation! You still want to cultivate properly for two days. You are truly seizing every moment to cultivate. Then, in two days, at noon, we will meet at that tavern. After lunch, we will set off."
Su Han nodded and said, "Alright, then we'll meet at that tavern at noon in two days. Whoever arrives first will order the wine first."
The red Daoist said, "No problem, whoever arrives first will order the wine and dishes first."
After the two bid each other farewell, Su Han quickly ran away from there. After leaving the city, Su Han took flight and headed towards an area with dense spiritual energy.
