The morning light shone on the land. However, no signs of life existed under the sunlight. There was only carnage and destruction.
A Dao nun with messy hair, who was wearing tattered clothes, stood in a trance on a land that had become ruins.
Her chest was covered in blood. The blood flowing from the open wound caused the fabric of her clothes to stick to her skin, making the two indistinguishable. Her naked feet were also covered in blood. The blood merged with the soil below, causing the soil to turn brown. The fly-whisk she was carrying on her back was completely bare. She was clutching onto a broken stone tablet, on which the word
Nirvana
could still be seen indistinguishably.
Her hands were trembling as she muttered,
The Virtuous Nirvana Sect. The Virtuous Nirvana Sect exists no more…

The mission of the Virtuous Nirvana Sect had been to protect the purity of the world, eliminate all darkness, and purify Heaven and Earth to be as pure as oneself.
She had believed that the world was pure, beautiful, and clean back when she had been in the Cultivation World. It was not important whether the world needed the protection of the Virtuous Nirvana Sect’s disciples. This was because she believed that the mission of the Virtuous Nirvana Sect to guard the world had been completed and that this mission was insufficient to completely embody the sect’s ideals.
The Virtuous Nirvana Sect had existed to pursue good and freedom, which should also be applicable to its disciples. She chose to not accept any disciples in the Cultivation World for two reasons. Firstly, she had not managed to find anyone who was suitable to cultivate by using the Virtuous Nirvana Dao Manual. Secondly, she wished to bring up her viewpoints to the ancestral master of the Virtuous Nirvana Sect when she arrived at the Immortal World.
The Virtuous Nirvana Sect should not be silently protecting behind the scenes. Instead, it should spread its ideals to others so that one would become pure after one’s heart became pure. Disciples from the Virtuous Nirvana Sect had to step forward and tell everyone to learn how to love indiscriminately, be courteous, and be respectful…
Now, her faith crumbled in an instant. Perhaps it would be more accurate to say that her faith had already started to crumble the moment she had stepped into the Immortal World.
What had she witnessed during all these years?
Destruction, bloodshed, desolation, helplessness, loneliness…
There was no human trace or living organism around for miles. There were only corpses and ruins left in the Immortal World.
When she had encountered a cultivator one day, she had approached him feeling pleasantly surprised to inquire. However, she had almost been killed by him instead because he had wanted to obtain her Blood Essence for his own cultivation.
What kind of world was this? What kind of despair was she feeling?
Here, everyone practiced the art of killing. Here, there was no pure land 1
 .
The Virtuous Nirvana Sect had possessed lofty ideals when it had extended itself from the Cultivation World into the Immortal World. Now, what remained of it was a mere broken stone tablet.
Her hands and her heart were trembling. She was no longer willing to believe, not after her faith had crumbled, that pureness existed in the world.
…
The name ‘Great Fortune Immortal City’ sounded philistine. However, this was a city where at least 10,000 cultivators were gathered. City Lord Gai Jinxuan was a bonafide Perfected Immortal expert, whose Quintessential Essence had been completely converted into Immortal Essence.
Although this was considered an Immortal City, it was actually just an ordinary castle. The city looked like a hill, so it lacked the aura present in true Immortal Cities.
However, in the desolate Immortal World, such a hill-like castle was a place nearly everyone wished to enter.
Only a small number of people could enter the city unless the cultivator was able to.
The City Lord Manor of the Great Fortune City was in fact merely a simple large stone house.
A man whose age could not be determined based on his appearance sat on the throne of the City Lord Manor. His face was long, and his eyes were asymmetrical in size, one of them big and the other small. There was a sinister, murderous look on his face that scared people.
He was Gai Jinxuan, the Great Fortune Immortal City’s City Lord and a bonafide Perfected Immortal expert.
Gai Jinxuan was currently extremely satisfied with the life he was living. When he was unable to immerse himself in cultivation for long periods of time, he liked to sit in this manner within the City Lord Manor, which he found very spacious, recalling the time when he had just arrived in the Immortal World.
What he had seen back then had been a stretch of desolation and destruction. Later, he had used one billion Spirit Stones to enter the Great Fortune Immortal City. Like a dog, he had sought the approval of the former City Lord and gone anywhere the City Lord had gone.
When an opportunity had finally arrived, he had killed the foolish City Lord after some scheming and obtained large amounts of immortal crystals. He had successfully converted his Quintessential Essence into Immortal Essence by using these immortal crystals and then he had become the new City Lord of the Great Fortune Immortal City.
He was the king of this place. Anyone who dared to rebel against his wishes would not live to see the next day. In the Great Fortune Immortal City, the female cultivators he took a liking to would surrender themselves to him happily and excitedly.
He enjoyed this lifestyle and looked down on the weaklings who relied on refining the Blood Essence of other cultivators to survive. The weaklings who relied on such means would eventually become senseless idiots one day.

City Lord, I have some important news to report to you,
said a respectful voice that came from the entrance of the City Lord Manor, interrupting Gai Jinxuan’s reminiscing thoughts.
Gai Jinxuan was reminded of his past self when he heard this voice. He knew the person standing by the entrance. It was Yang Qianxiu, his chief conspirator and servant.
Back then, he had been just like Yang Qianxiu. He’d had the same respectful and humble attitude, especially in front of the City Lord. It was exactly because he had acted this way that he had been able to seize the opportunity, kill off the former City Lord and become the City Lord himself. Yang Qianxiu must be harboring the same intentions as his past self. He had to be thinking of killing Gai Jinxuan and becoming the City Lord.
A fat cultivator stood outside the entrance of the City Lord Manor, bowing till his head was almost touching the floor.
It was Yang Qianxiu, Gai Jinxuan’s subordinate and dog. He was a cultivator others looked down on because of his way of living. However, he believed that he was living gloriously.
He remained in the same position and bowed respectfully outside the entrance when he did not hear the City Lord call him in.
Half an hour passed before he heard the City Lord say,
Enter.

Yang Qianxiu hastily walked into the City Lord Manor. He threw himself onto the ground and knelt when he was still more than a dozen feet away from the City Lord.
Great news, my City Lord. Great news!

He lifted his head as he was saying those words exaggeratedly and happily. He was fat and his eyes were big, so he looked like he was good-natured and easy to become friends with. Gai Jinxuan knew, however, that Yang Qianxiu was full of bad ideas, much like he had been in the past. Many solutions to problems of the Great Fortune Immortal City were suggested by Yang Qianxiu.
Yang Qianyu was a very convenient tool to use. Hence, Gai Jinxuan was unwilling to replace him, despite being fully aware of what he himself had done in the past.

Oh? Tell me about it,
replied Gai Jinxuan nonchalantly.
Yang Qianxiu said excitedly,
I’ve obtained some information on the Virtuous Nirvana Sect disciples. A new Virtuous Nirvana Sect disciple has come to the Immortal World. It is a female cultivator…


What?
Gai Jinxuan could not hold in his excitement any longer. He rushed in front of Yang Qianxiu, grabbed him and asked,
Did you say that a Virtuous Nirvana Sect disciple has come to the Immortal World? Did you say it was a female cultivator?

Yang Qianxiu, who was excited as well, said,
That’s right. A Virtuous Nirvana Sect disciple really came to the Immortal World. Some time ago, an Itinerant Cultivator sought refuge in the Great Fortune Immortal City. He said that he had some information on the Virtuous Nirvana Sect disciple. I’ve checked his injuries and they were indeed caused by a Virtuous Nirvana Sect disciple…


Bring that cultivator here quickly!
Gai Jinxuan was so excited that his voice started to tremble.
Yang Qianxiu immediately sent out a message and said,
I just sent him a message. He will be here shortly.

He dared not bring anyone to the City Lord Manor’s entrance when he had not received any orders from the City Lord. Not unless he wished to commit suicide.

Good, good. You have rendered great meritorious service.
Gai Jinxuan rubbed his hands together. His eyes and face were vibrant with excitement.
In the era of the Sunset Immortal World, the most valuable assets were disciples from the Virtuous Nirvana Sect, not immortal crystals or immortal pills.
The Virtuous Nirvana Sect only accepted disciples who possessed a Nirmala Spirit Body and would cultivate using the Virtuous Nirvana Dao Manual. This was the reason there were very few Virtuous Nirvana Sect disciples.
Virtuous Nirvana Sect disciples were the ideal choice of cultivation partners for any cultivator, as once anyone became cultivation partners with a Virtuous Nirvana Sect disciple, their Spirit Roots and body would be purified. Their cultivation speed would also increase multifold.
During the era of the Sunset Immortal World, the Virtuous Nirvana Sect disciple was useful for another purpose. Their cultivation partner would be able to break through to the Golden Immortal Realm from the Perfected Immortal Realm after they had sex.
In the era of the Sunset Immortal World, Perfected Immortal Realm cultivators were domineering existences whose wrath no one would dare incur. Needless to say, Golden Immortal Realm cultivators were even scarier. Unfortunately, sunset had arrived in the Immortal World and heavenly luck had ceased to exist. Few people in the Sunset Immortal World could attain the Golden Immortal Realm.
However, Gai Jinxuan knew that the City Lords of two other Immortal Cities were at the Golden Immortal Realm. They were able to attain the Golden Immortal Realm because they had obtained a Virtuous Nirvana Sect disciple.
If he really obtained a Virtuous Nirvana Sect disciple and attained the Golden Immortal Realm, his lifespan would increase by 100,000 years. This would greatly stabilize his position as the Great Fortune Immortal City’s City Lord.
