Mo Wuji was very satisfied with the position arranged for him by Wu Kai, and Qin Xiangyu was also happy for Mo Wuji upon hearing the news.

The Boundless Sword Sect's flying ship set off that very night, which relieved the tension in Mo Wuji's heart. His biggest worry was that he would be found by Extreme Sword City before he even left Changluo.

He was certain that if Extreme Sword City found the Boundless Sword Sect, the Boundless Sword Sect would discard him like trash.

In just one day, the Boundless Sword Sect's flying ship stopped. Mo Wuji was a miscellaneous disciple, so he followed Wu Kai off the ship.

The ship was stopped in a spacious plaza. In front of the plaza were rows of steps leading upwards. Mo Wuji roughly estimated that there were at least four or five hundred steps.

At the end of the steps, four large characters floated, as if they had been casually carved out by a sharp sword: Boundless Sword Sect (无痕剑派, Wú Hén Jiàn Pài). Even though Mo Wuji didn't understand swordsmanship, he could vaguely feel a chilling sword aura.

After arriving here, the inner and outer sect disciples recruited this time by the Boundless Sword Sect went up the steps to enter the sect first, and participated in the entry ceremony. Qin Xiangyu didn't even have a chance to say goodbye to Mo Wuji before following the newly recruited disciples into the Boundless Sword Sect.

After all the inner and outer sect disciples had entered, Wu Kai led more than a hundred miscellaneous disciples up the steps. Miscellaneous disciples weren't qualified to participate in the entry ceremony because they didn't cultivate; they only did miscellaneous tasks for the sect.

Crossing the four or five hundred steps, they were greeted by another huge plaza. In the middle of the plaza was a wide marble path that led directly to the main hall of the Boundless Sword Sect. On both sides of this wide marble avenue stood nine stone tablets.

Mo Wuji saw that on each stone tablet, there were some vague shadows, as if someone was practicing swordsmanship. But upon closer inspection, he couldn't see them clearly.

Miscellaneous disciples weren't allowed to walk on the wide path in the middle. Instead, they had to take the small paths on either side to enter the sect, and then be assigned to various departments.

Mo Wuji sighed inwardly. This was just an Earth-grade sect. How magnificent would a quasi-Heaven-grade sect be?

"Isn't it impressive?" a gray-clothed youth said in a low voice near Mo Wuji's ear.

Mo Wuji recognized the gray-clothed youth. He was also a miscellaneous disciple recruited this time, named Xian Ziqian. Unlike Mo Wuji, he had spiritual roots, but they were the lowest grade.

"It's indeed impressive. It has the aura of a large sect," Mo Wuji nodded. These words came from his heart. Even though he couldn't see clearly inside the sect, as it seemed to be shrouded in clouds and mist, he felt that the Boundless Sword Sect had a great aura just from the entrance.

Xian Ziqian said in an even quieter voice, "Don't look down on the Boundless Sword Sect just because it's only an Earth-grade sect. I've heard that many quasi-Heaven-grade sects don't have as much aura as the Boundless Sword Sect."

"Don't whisper to each other. Fei Guang, take Mo Wuji to his residence and introduce him to his future work. The rest of you, follow me," Wu Kai's voice interrupted all the discussion.

Mo Wuji knew Fei Guang. He was Wu Kai's loyal subordinate. Although he was very fat, he was very efficient. Seeing Wu Kai specially arrange for Fei Guang to take him to his residence and introduce him to his work, Mo Wuji knew that the sea-winged leopard egg had really worked its magic.

This Wu Kai had a lewd face and was greedy for profit. He wasn't the type to accept a gift and not do anything. He not only did things, but he did them in a way that satisfied the gift-giver. No wonder this guy could sit in the position of a miscellaneous affairs deacon. Indeed, everyone has their own merits.

...

"Brother Wuji, our deacon is really taking care of you this time. Did you know that new miscellaneous disciples have to undergo three days of training? The deacon has exempted you from training this time," Fei Guang said as he walked, praising Wu Kai's kindness to Mo Wuji.

Mo Wuji wasn't interested in this. This was a result of an exchange of benefits. He was more concerned about how to survive here in the future.

After inquiring along the way, Mo Wuji had a general understanding. Miscellaneous disciples had their own range of activity. They couldn't go to other areas casually unless under special circumstances. When miscellaneous disciples encountered inner or outer sect disciples, they had to stop, bow, and let the real sect disciples pass first.

After completing their work, miscellaneous disciples were relatively free. They could leave the sect at will to go to the sect's market or take care of their own affairs, provided that they didn't delay their work.

The residence that Wu Kai arranged for Mo Wuji was indeed very secluded. Besides a small lake near his residence, the nearest dormitory area for miscellaneous disciples was nearly a hundred meters away.

Although the house was very simple, just a stone room, it was well-equipped. It included two rooms, a kitchen, and even a storage room. Was Wu Kai not living here and letting him live here instead? Could it be that Wu Kai's residence was even better than this?

"I heard that this lake is called Blood Lotus Lake. It used to be a place for cultivating Treasure Blood Lotus, and this house was where the lotus farmers lived," Fei Guang said, pointing at Mo Wuji's house with some envy.

"Treasure Blood Lotus?" Mo Wuji had never heard of this before. He hadn't had time to read the Alchemy Book that Shen Lian had given him.

Fei Guang explained, "Treasure Blood Lotus is both a spiritual herb and a very delicious ingredient. Because it has such great medicinal value, few people use it as food. I heard that Treasure Blood Lotus is also a material for refining pills that can open up spiritual meridians. Isn't it precious?"

"Then why isn't it cultivated here anymore?" Mo Wuji asked doubtfully.

Fei Guang chuckled. "If it were still being cultivated, you definitely wouldn't have the chance to live here. Actually, although Treasure Blood Lotus is a good thing, it has one major drawback: it absorbs spiritual energy too terribly. Treasure Blood Lotus used to be grown here, which led to the spiritual energy in this area being almost non-existent and extremely thin."

Mo Wuji suddenly understood why Wu Kai didn't live here himself and had always kept this place. Wu Kai had low-grade spiritual roots. Even if his spiritual roots were poor, he could still cultivate. How could a person who could cultivate live in a place where he couldn't cultivate?

Many miscellaneous disciples had spiritual roots. They didn't come here because they liked doing miscellaneous tasks. Most of them wanted to cultivate. In that case, they naturally wouldn't choose to live in a place with a lack of spiritual energy. As for those who really did miscellaneous tasks, they didn't have anything to impress Wu Kai, so this quiet place was kept all along.

Wu Kai assumed that he couldn't cultivate, or rather, didn't take his cultivation seriously, which was why he arranged for him to live here. According to his agreement with Wu Kai, Wu Kai hadn't lied. This place was secluded and a good place to live.

After figuring this out, Mo Wuji didn't care. He could absorb spiritual energy anywhere he cultivated. The spiritual energy here was thin, but after all, there was still spiritual energy, and that was enough for him to cultivate. Moreover, he cultivated very quickly. Relatively speaking, the speed of opening up meridians was too slow. Even if he switched to a place with more spiritual energy, he wouldn't be able to cultivate any faster.

"Thank you, Deacon Wu and Brother Guang. I'm very satisfied with this place," Mo Wuji was indeed very satisfied with this place.

Fei Guang was equally satisfied with Mo Wuji's answer. He was most worried that Mo Wuji would say that there was no spiritual energy here and that he didn't like living here. If Mo Wuji was satisfied, then everything was fine.

"This is a signboard for the No. 19 pharmacy room. Once this signboard lights up, it means that the Alchemy Master is calling you to prepare medicine. You must rush to the No. 19 pharmacy room as soon as possible. Remember! Remember!"

Fei Guang handed Mo Wuji a jade talisman-like signboard and took out a map to hand to Mo Wuji. "This is where you can go in the sect, and where you can't go. The No. 19 pharmacy room is marked on it. If Brother Mo has nothing else, I'll take my leave."

Fei Guang had explained everything so clearly, so Mo Wuji naturally had no questions. After sending Fei Guang away, he immediately went inside to clean the room and then arranged a place for Yan'er to live.
