Upon receiving the token, Ye Ming, who had very little contact with the outside world, didn't know the significance of the Ancient Immortal Token.
However, he remembered the four words 'Ancient Immortal Dao Heritage,' vaguely sensing that this Dao Heritage must be extraordinary.
Ye Ming didn't ask, because he wanted to leave Lotus Horn City and slowly learn about his master's past and background.
“From now on, you are one of the disciples of the Ancient Immortal Dao Heritage. If one day you are at your wit's end, take this token to Taiping City.”
Chen Changsheng smiled and took out the Ninefold Underworld Spring Sword: “This sword is named Ninefold Underworld Spring. It has accompanied me in battle for hundreds of years. It is a Nascent Soul stage magic treasure, and it is the last gift I will give you.”
“Master, no!”
Ye Ming was flattered and said, “Such a precious magic treasure is something I can't even protect. You should keep it for yourself.”
He was just a small Foundation Establishment cultivator, how could he be qualified to possess a Nascent Soul magic treasure?
Once outsiders found out, it would definitely attract countless powerful pursuers.
Chen Changsheng gently pushed the sword forward and said in a cold voice: “If you can't protect it, then never see me again. Take it. Weak as you are, you don't even have the right to refuse.”
“This old tortoise really has no human touch at all, not even saying hello to me.”
Ye Ming said with a wry smile.
Looking up at the boundless sky, he put away the Ninefold Underworld Spring Sword and bowed deeply again.
… …
Several days later.
Outside the Thunder Wasteland Forbidden Zone, stood a cluster of undulating buildings.
The trading district was bustling with people, very lively and crowded. It was hard to imagine that such a lively area was only a thousand miles away from a perilous forbidden zone.
Everyone who arrived in this area was a cultivator. Even the merchants were all composed of cultivators.
No mortals dared to come to this kind of place. Once the hidden dangers within the forbidden zone erupted, the first to die would be the mortals.
At this moment, the old tortoise carried Chen Changsheng and the other two to arrive. The surrounding cultivators only glanced sideways slightly, not paying too much attention.
The outskirts of the forbidden zone were a mixed bag. Some people were passing by to rest, some were preparing to venture into the forbidden zone, and some were here only to do business and earn cultivation resources. Cultivators from all over the world were present, including disciples from other regions' sects and schools.
Chen Changsheng and Miaomiao completely concealed their cultivation, looking like mortals without the strength to truss a chicken. As long as Yu Niang didn't use her ghost cultivation methods, she was purely a mortal body.
Three mortals riding a Golden Core stage demon beast across the land; even the most brainless people knew that they were not easy to provoke.
In this kind of chaotic area, the best way to avoid trouble was to hide one's cultivation. The more unfathomable one appeared, the more intimidating they would be. Once one exposed their cultivation realm, it would instead attract trouble.
The three people and one demon arrived at the very end of the building complex and landed.
Chen Changsheng casually raised his hand, and a magnificent palace flew out from his palm. After expanding to several meters in height, it gently landed on the open space.
This palace was a fifth-grade magic tool he had refined. Its characteristics were sturdiness and portability. Other than that, it was no different from an ordinary palace building.
Ordinary cultivators would not be so extravagant as to spend a lot of money to make such a thing, but who told Chen Changsheng that he was rich in resources and also a fifth-grade weapon refiner?
A wealthy weapon refiner could really do whatever he wanted!
In order to be able to feel like he was at home wherever he went, Chen Changsheng did not hesitate to spend a lot of materials to create this magic tool palace.
He formed a hand seal and waved a spell.
A plaque appeared on the palace, with the words 'Dao Treasure Pavilion' written in a flamboyant style. Then, a banner appeared next to the door, with the words 'Acquiring Ancient Heritages' written on it.
“Old tortoise, go play by yourself. We will be staying here for a while. Yu Niang, help me find out if there are any Holy Land prodigies in this area.”
“Master, what about me?”
“Help me run the Dao Treasure Pavilion. I'll take you out shopping tonight.”
Chen Changsheng stretched lazily and walked into the Dao Treasure Pavilion with a relaxed expression.
When arriving in a new place, one had to first investigate the information, understand the rules and resident forces of this place. If one charged around like a reckless youth, it would be easy to suffer losses.
Therefore, on the first day of arriving at the outskirts of the Thunder Wasteland Forbidden Zone, Chen Changsheng and the other two were particularly low-key, not attracting anyone's attention.
Perhaps it was because of the remote location, but several days passed without any cultivators patronizing the Dao Treasure Pavilion.
Chen Changsheng held Miaomiao, leisurely and comfortably lying on a chair, gently rocking.
He enjoyed the tranquility in the ordinary days, completely unconcerned about the passage of time, and even less concerned about whether the Dao Treasure Pavilion's business was booming.
At this time, Yu Niang walked into the hall from outside the door and said in a soft voice: “Young Master, the general information about the outskirts of the forbidden zone has been collected.”
“Currently, there are three Holy Land disciples in this forbidden zone. They are the direct disciples of the Hao Thunder Holy Land and the Vast Expanse Holy Land, and an inner disciple of the Great Evolution Holy Land.”
“Among them, the direct disciple of the Vast Expanse Holy Land has entered the Thunder Wasteland Forbidden Zone. The other two are chatting happily in the Misty Water Inn. As for the content of their discussion, it is temporarily unclear.”
Yu Niang paused for a moment and continued: “However, according to my investigation, it should be related to the opportunities within the Thunder Wasteland Forbidden Zone. A huge spiritual energy shock was transmitted from the forbidden zone some time ago. It is estimated that a treasure is about to be born.”
Hao Thunder Holy Land?
Chen Changsheng was slightly startled after hearing this, and placed his palm on Miaomiao's slender jade legs, subconsciously stroking them.
His eyes flashed with bright light, and the corners of his mouth rose: “I remember that the Holy Land that possesses the ancient thunder technique heritage is the Hao Thunder Holy Land, right?”
Miaomiao, who was sleeping soundly on his chest, woke up groggily.
She moved her soft and delicate body, and her red lips exhaled a fragrant breath: “It seems so. I remember Master mentioned before that it is the Hao Thunder Holy Land of the Five Thunder Domain.”
“Let's go, we're going to the Misty Water Inn!”
Chen Changsheng excitedly picked up Miaomiao, causing the girl to let out a cry of surprise.
Regardless of whether it was the Hao Thunder Holy Land or the Great Evolution Holy Land, he planned to replicate their faces into facial masks.
The heritage of the Holy Land should not be underestimated, especially the strength of the direct disciples of the Holy Land is almost unmatched in the same realm.
It was just that the members of the Immortal Cultivation Group had all cheated. In such a comparison, the strength of the direct disciples of the Holy Land seemed to be nothing more than that. But looking at the entire cultivation world, the direct disciples of the Holy Land were still the strongest batch of cultivators.
At this time, the Misty Water Inn was overcrowded. Two handsome young men were sitting by the window on the top floor.
They were drinking and laughing happily, attracting the attention of many cultivators.
The two Holy Land disciples joining hands in public was undoubtedly telling everyone that the struggle for this opportunity was being monopolized by their two Holy Lands.
The cultivators of the major sects and schools downstairs secretly felt that something was wrong.
Many forces began to secretly unite, deciding that this time the competition must be forced, and they must get a share of the pie from the two Holy Lands.
