Previously on Cultivation is just so scientific!...
After a long journey, Li Shiming and his companions arrive at a giant glowing gate. Li Yuanba enters first, finding himself in a floating castle in a strange land where he meets Great Power Yin Hai, who welcomes him to the Land of Fallen Immortals. Li Yuanba then calls for Li Shiming and Li Taibai to join him.

However, between the Land of Fallen Immortals and the Cultivation World, there exists an isolation, capable of isolating all forms of communication.

Li Yuanba hasn’t left the Land of Fallen Immortals, yet Li Shiming and Li Taibai already know what’s happening here, which Great Power Yin Hai finds puzzling.

"I greet two fellow cultivators!" Great Power Yin Hai, after a moment of surprise, responded.

He examined Li Shiming and Li Taibai. Li Taibai was easier to perceive, his aura reflecting that of a Thunder Cultivation Great Power, at least allowing Yin Hai to sense Li Taibai’s strength. But sensing Li Shiming proved difficult, unable to accurately gauge his power.

Despite his nearing the end of his life span, he could stand guard here with his special abilities.

His perception far exceeded that of ordinary Free Great Powers, enabling him to understand all Free Great Powers entering the Land of Fallen Immortals.

In fact, it’s not entirely Yin Hai Great Power’s fault—his perception is indeed highly accurate. However, the aura he perceives from Li Shiming is ’Chaos Energy.’

’Chaos Energy’ encompasses a multitude of possibilities, making it impossible for Yin Hai Great Power, encountering this energy for the first time, to identify it.

"Do you all come from Central State?" Yin Hai Great Power continued to ask.

Although the three came together, he wanted to know if the three Free Great Powers hailed from the same Cultivation Land.

"Li Taibai and I come from the Ten Thousand Beast Sect on Dongqi Continent!" Li Shiming replied with a smile.

"Dongqi Continent, that’s also Central State!" Yin Hai Great Power said with a smile after hearing this.

It turns out the Cultivation Land where Li Shiming resides is externally referred to as Central State.

Considering Central State’s position, such a title is indeed reasonable.

"I didn’t expect Central State to produce so many talents at once, three Free Great Powers appearing, all so young!" Yin Hai Great Power said appreciatively as he looked at the three Free Great Powers.

"Actually, there’s another great power, I’ll call her out!" Li Shiming thought for a moment and said.

He could tell this Great Power Yin Hai was stationed here.

Since Great Power Yin Hai is stationed at the entrance to guard this Land of Fallen Immortals, it must be to check the situation of entering great powers.

Yin Shilan has no secrets, nothing to hide, so calling her out would also prevent future troubles.

While speaking, he called out Yin Shilan.

"Mr. Yin, this is my Daoist couple, Yin Shilan!" Li Shiming introduced to Great Power Yin Hai with a smile, then turned to Yin Shilan and said: "This is Mr. Yin Hai, and we are in the Land of Fallen Immortals!"

Yin Shilan bowed as a gesture of respect to Great Power Yin Hai.

Yin Hai Great Power felt slightly dizzy, wondering if his age was causing illusions.

Otherwise, could it be that Central State saw an explosion of genius with four young Free Great Powers appearing suddenly?

"Yin Fairy shares my surname as well, that’s quite fortuitous!" Great Power Yin Hai thought privately, bowing in return as a gesture of respect.

"Please sit down with me for a moment, I will explain the situation of the Land of Fallen Immortals!" He gestured, inviting them.

This was part of his duty here, to explain necessary precautions to every new great power entering the Land of Fallen Immortals.

The situation of human cultivators in the Land of Fallen Immortals is not ideal, and every bit of fighting ability is extremely important.

Li Shiming and others followed Great Power Yin Hai towards the castle.

The castle was a Fourth Grade Top Quality Magical Treasure, which Li Shiming himself possessed one of, typically forged for use as buildings.

Despite its size, the castle’s grand appearance was due to the magical treasure being magnified, without as much use of Fourth Grade Top Material as presumed.

Of course, the amount of resources owned by a great power means even magnified magical treasures consumed significant Fourth Grade Top Material.

Upon entering the castle’s hall, Li Shiming saw suits of armor and weapons displayed on both sides, all equipment for ’Exotic Realm Divine Soldiers.’

Apparently, within the Land of Fallen Immortals, using ’Exotic Realm Divine Soldiers’ spoils as collectibles serves as a way of demonstrating one’s battle achievements.

Great Power Yin Hai also realized that Li Shiming was the leader among these four Free Great Powers.

Previously, he favored Li Yuanba, who was now alongside Li Taibai, following behind Li Shiming, displaying an attitude centered around Li Shiming.

Among the four great powers, Li Yuanba, though of higher cultivation level, felt more pressure from Li Shiming.

Great Power Yin Hai and Li Shiming exchanged pleasantries, finally seating Great Power Yin Hai at the main position, with the four Li Shiming sat below.

Great Power Yin Hai brought out items for reception, some Spirit Fruit, and Spiritual Wine.

"I am entrusted by the Immortal Alliance of the Land of Fallen Immortals to explain some necessary information to all cultivators entering the Land of Fallen Immortals.

Firstly, the Land of Fallen Immortals is divided into two parts, one being the Immortal Domain, the other the Divine Domain.

The Immortal Domain is occupied by us cultivators; it contains Spiritual Energy and is suitable for cultivator survival. Exotic Realm Divine Soldiers will be suppressed here, their strength decreasing significantly.

The Divine Domain is the opposite; it contains ’Holy Spirit Energy,’ suppressing our strength.

The sizes of the Immortal Domain and Divine Domain are not fixed, cultivators can intrude into the Divine Domain, remain there for a time, and leave specific formations, converting parts of the Divine Domain into Immortal Domain, vice versa applies.

No matter which Cultivation Land we hail from, we are all bound and regulated by the Immortal Alliance; human cultivators in the Land of Fallen Immortals must unite to survive!" Great Power Yin Hai explained sternly.

Li Shiming and others listened intently, already knowing some from the Jade Scroll of Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion, but the scroll’s content doesn’t come close to being as clear as what Great Power Yin Hai said.

"Are the Exotic Realm Divine Soldiers our enemies as human cultivators?" Li Shiming asked.

"Yes, our enemies are the Exotic Realm Divine Soldiers. It’s our term for them; they’re a wise race with a cultivation system similar to human cultivators, and they have a closer relationship among their kind, with strict hierarchical division!" Great Power Yin Hai nodded.

"As newly arrived cultivators, what should we do here?" Li Shiming continued to ask.

As rookies without any bearings, since Great Power Yin Hai could provide explanations, he was asking whatever was necessary.

"You need identity verification, carried out at the Immortal Alliance. I have a compass for traveling to the Immortal Alliance, where you can accept or independently act on tasks. The Immortal Alliance’s constraint on human cultivators is low, generally not releasing tasks as orders, but instead using resources or valuable affairs for tasks distribution!" Great Power Yin Hai replied.

Originally meant to explain to Li Shiming, since he asked directly, he answered promptly.

He took out a compass, placing it before Li Shiming.

Li Shiming took the compass, its needle fixed in one direction.

Presumably, the compass points to where the Immortal Alliance is located.

"Thank you, Mr. Yin, for clearing my confusion!" Li Shiming expressed his gratitude with a bow.

"In recent centuries, several cultivators from Central State left and didn’t return. Did they encounter problems?" Great Power Yin Hai asked, recalling something.

Li Shiming hesitated slightly, choosing not to disclose the truth.

Despite having legitimate reasons for eliminating those great powers, who knows what connections those three great powers have in the Land of Fallen Immortals. It’s unwise to make a batch of enemies upon arriving.

"According to my knowledge, Great Power Leng Luo violated Central State’s regulations and was encircled by inheritor great powers, Huiyue Bodhisattva experienced grotto heaven collapse for unknown reasons, fate unknown, as for the other great power, I can’t tell!" Li Shiming replied half-truthfully.

"This really is a loss for human cultivators, fortunately you four make up for these three’s absence!" Great Power Yin Hai shook his head in lament.

Based on Li Shiming’s words, Great Power Leng Luo and Huiyue Bodhisattva 100% perished.

Wan Fu Great Power went missing, or perhaps entered seclusion, but with no news for hundreds of years, the likelihood of encountering an issue was high.
