Although these Western forces are basically hidden among the people and are unknown, there have been some records in Western history, such as the most famous Bloody Countess in Europe, who is also called Countess Dracula.

According to historical records, the Bloody Countess was the cousin of Polish King Staffen Bartori, who was born with a very prominent background. It is said that she had the beauty and charm of never fading. In her life, more than one hundred young nobles died in duels for her.

According to the written records in unofficial history, at a grand dinner, the countess appeared in front of everyone in a flowing long dress, with long black hair dancing in the air, and two gem-like blue eyes containing a breathtaking light. The fiery red dress is like a flowing flame, wrapping her slender body like white jade, and her whole body is like a moving fire spirit.

When she stopped, the silver-white moonlight shone in from the window, covering her faintly. The gentlemen sitting were all confused. They couldn't figure out whether the countess was an angel who descended to the earth along the moonlight, or the saint who was about to float to the heavenly palace in accordance with the moonlight.

But in fact, this countess is a direct branch of the Cain family. Her secret to maintaining youth is very simple, that is, to suck blood, and the blood of virgins. Before the matter was exposed, more than a thousand girls died at the countess' hands.

The Countess was discovered to be a very accidental incident in Cain's descendants. At that time, the Countess left the castle where she lived for about half a year. During this period, a daughter's missing witch hunter found the Countess' castle.

The witch hunter was very powerful. The servant who stayed in the castle could not stop him. The witch hunter discovered the corpses of more than two thousand girls hiding under the castle, among which was the witch hunter's daughter.

As soon as the matter was spread, even the Holy See, which turned a blind eye could not escape. The Cain family and the Holy See had the biggest conflict in history, and both sides suffered many high-level practitioners.

Although the Cain family has a deep foundation, the number of people is too small, and the Holy See cannot tolerate various assassinations from the Cain family. This war ended with concessions and compromises between the two sides.

The Countess, who finally caused the war, was imprisoned in an ancient castle in England, and the reputation of the Bloody Countess spread throughout the world, and even among ordinary people, it was widely circulated and interpreted in various versions.

During the several major plagues in Africa, it was also caused by the struggle between the black wizards there. However, in recent hundreds of years, these cultivators rarely appeared in the world, and people have gradually forgotten the legends related to them.

But in fact, these forces just don’t appear in front of ordinary people, and they have never disappeared. In addition to the Holy See also the largest sectarian forces in the world on the surface, many Western countries have the shadow of these cultivators, or they are simply controlled by them.

"Brother No. 1, are what you said true or false?"

After listening to Zhang Yi introducing the pattern of the world of cultivators, Wei Mingcheng opened his mouth wide in surprise. He had never realized that there were forces in this world that surpassed the country. Many of the leaders of major powers with prominent status were just spokespersons of these forces.

"Do you think it's true or not?"

Zhang Yi curled his lips. Just as the truth is in the hands of a few people, the truth is often only known by a few people, and what ordinary people see in the eyes of them are not necessarily true.

"This is too crazy, right?" Wei Mingcheng already recognized Zhang Yi's words in his heart, but he still felt a little unacceptable. "Brother 1, if these people jump out to cause trouble, wouldn't the whole world become chaotic?"

"The practitioner is not a lunatic, so why should he jump out and cause trouble?"

Zhang Yi looked at Wei Mingcheng like a patient and said, "What practitioners pursue is different from what the world's powerful people pursue. A truly top practitioner is looking for a way to get out of the cage of the earth. Where can I have the time to care about the little things in the secular world?"

"Cage?" Fang Yi, who had not spoken, had a slightly changed face when he heard this word, "Brother, what do you mean by the word "cage?"

"I don't know very well, I just heard from my elders before."

Zhang Yi looked melancholy, sighed, and said, "In the past, the lifespan of a cultivator was very long. I heard that living for hundreds or thousands of years was very common. Some old monsters could even live for thousands of years, but I don't know when the cultivator's lifespan began to decrease significantly. Now there are very few people who can live for thousands of years.

I heard from the older generation that this is because the environment of cultivation on earth has changed and cannot further improve people's cultivation. Countless years ago, the sects have left the earth through various channels to find spaces suitable for cultivation.

But the people who stayed on the earth are worse than each other, each generation is weaker than each generation, and the path to leave the earth's space seems to be cut off. The earth is now like a cage, trapping the practitioners here."

What Zhang Yi said is not a secret in the world of cultivators. The disappearance of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth has led to the arrival of the Dharma-Ending Age.

According to the inheritance records of some aristocratic families, in ancient times, only when they practiced until the Qi Refining Period could they be truly considered a cultivator. In that era, they were really practicing Qi and walking around, and there were so many innate things like dogs. How could they be like now? It was difficult to advance to the Qi Refining Period.

Moreover, at that time, people without spiritual roots like Zhang Yi were able to improve their cultivation to the innate realm. Some people with deep opportunities could even advance to the Qi Refining Stage, but in modern times, their cultivation path was blocked from the innate realm.

"How do you divide the realms of cultivators now?" After hearing Zhang Yi's words, Fang Yi asked, "What is the realm of the person with the highest cultivation level on earth now?"

"Fang Yi, I'm not even a cultivator. How could I know about such a problem?"

Zhang Yi smiled bitterly when he heard this and said, "I only know that after refining Qi, it is the foundation building. I don't know what realm is above the foundation building. As for the current cultivators, I have only heard of someone who can reach the foundation building realm. Those are the existences of the ancestors, and they are not something I can touch."

Usually, after the spiritual roots are measured, the children of aristocratic families will be sent to the cultivator realm to practice. These people will often never return to their families in their lives. Therefore, Zhang Yi does not know much about the cultivator realm, but only hears some basic knowledge from the conversations of the elders.

"There are people with foundation-building cultivation? Are there many such people?"

Hearing Zhang Yi's words, Fang Yi's face changed. The innate and foundation-building stage are two major realms different. In other words, with Fang Yi's current cultivation level, if he meets a cultivator in the foundation-building stage, it is like a child who has just learned to walk, and there is no comparison between the two at all.

"Fang Yi, don't worry, those old monsters with the foundation-building stage and the strength of the foundation-building stage will not appear in the secular world."

Seeing Fang Yi's nervous look, Zhang Yi couldn't help but laugh and said, "Not to mention people in the Foundation Establishment Stage, even people in the innate realm, few people will walk around the world. They are different from what we pursue, and they have independent space for cultivation and living, and they usually don't come to the secular world."

In modern society, it is still composed of ordinary people. Cultivators rarely intervene because they pursue their own level evolution to prolong their lives. Few people will waste time on unnecessary things. Glory and wealth in front of a long life is really like passing clouds.

"How is Charles' cultivation?" Fang Yi asked with a serious expression.

After knowing that there are people in this world who are far stronger than him, the trace of complacency in Fang Yi's previous heart has long disappeared without a trace. It seems that his trip to Europe may not be smooth sailing.

"It's about the same as me."

Zhang Yi smiled and said, "Fang Yi, you really don't need to be so nervous. There are indeed many old monsters in the families I just mentioned, but these old monsters will not appear. People who can appear in the secular world are limited in their strength even if they are stronger than us. What are you worried about?"

As if there is an agreement between each other, since the Blood Countess's incident hundreds of years ago, almost no older generation figures in the Western major families and the Holy See have appeared again. For example, the current queen of the British royal family, in terms of cultivation, she is definitely not the top existence in her family, but just the spokesperson of the family in the secular world.

This situation is not only in the West, but also in the East, South America and Africa. Since Zhang Sanfeng in the early Ming Dynasty, a saint Wang Yangming, who is proficient in the three schools of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism, has appeared in the East. As for the so-called martial arts masters of the Republic of China, they have not even been able to touch the threshold of practitioners.

As for the inheritors in South America and Africa, the time for the hidden world was earlier. The Mayan Temple has always been a legendary existence and rarely appeared in the world. The dark wizards have disappeared in recent hundreds of years. Even the circle of cultivators rarely hear their news.

"Besides, if they are shameless to show older generations of characters, our China is not jealous."

Zhang Yi cheered Fang Yi and Wei Mingcheng and said, "Now, Eastern and Western practitioners are in a balanced state, and no one will break this balance, so don't be afraid. If someone provokes, just fight back. If they don't follow the rules, someone will help us stand out."

If high-level practitioners do not appear in the world, it does not mean that they cannot appear. Children can ignore the outcome of winning or losing in the fight, but if an adult comes out to bully the child, they will also have to come forward.
