Immortal Realm Reception Envoy

At the foot of God of Wealth Peak, Tian Ye and his companions stayed behind. They were naturally entertained. The two true protagonists, however, went up the mountain without anyone accompanying them.

Yin Baikang had just arrived at the mountaintop, saw Yue Qianchou was riding, he asked with some confusion, "Brother Niu, what do you mean by this?"

"I'm currently practicing a sword technique, so I often use a sword for transportation," Yue Qianchou said, leaving the conversation brief and somewhat mysterious. Yin Baikang simply said "oh," knowing it was a private matter concerning someone's cultivation level and it wasn't appropriate to press further.

Clouds drifted across the mountaintop, and a modest, unassuming hall stood deserted, its plaque bearing the inscription "Jingcai Hall." Outside, a bluestone slab stood, beside which stood an ancient pine tree. Gazing upon the vast sea and floating clouds from this spot, one truly felt a sense of transcendence.

Yue Qianchou looked around and gazed at the mountains with their interspersed clouds and auspicious clouds everywhere. He couldn't help but click his tongue and say, "This is indeed a blessed land on earth. Brother Yin really knows how to pick a place."

"Brother Niu, you flatter me. I suppose it's still quite different from your blessed land. By the way..." Yin Baikang asked with a puzzled look, "May I ask where you live, Brother Niu? Why have I never heard of you before? With your cultivation level, you shouldn't be unknown in the Cultivation World. Am I simply ignorant?"

"Let's get down to business!" Yue Qianchou smiled faintly and shook his head, saying, "It's not that Brother Yin is ignorant, but rather that you've never been to the place I came from."

"A place I've never been before?" Yin Baikang's eyes flickered, and he pondered, "If there's any place in this world I haven't been to, it's only the Eastern Pole Sacred Land and the Misty Forest, two of the three forbidden lands. Could it be that Brother Niu comes from one of these two places?"

Yue Qianchou nodded slightly and said, "The latter."

"The Misty Forest?" Yin Baikang was quite surprised.

"To be precise, I only came from the Misty Deep Forest, not from the Misty Forest itself," Yue Qianchou said with a meaningful smile.

"Brother Niu, I don't quite understand what you mean. Could you explain it in more detail?" Yin Baikang asked, his eyes gleaming.

Yue Qianchou didn't rush to reply. He took out a golden robe from his Storage Bag and slowly put it on. After adjusting himself slightly, his entire demeanor became haughty. Standing atop the mountain, the golden robe shimmered with golden light in the sunlight. He then took out an ancient-looking sword, its tip pointing to the ground. He placed his hands on his abdomen, resting them on the hilt. Gazing silently into the distance, his expression solemn and dignified...

Yin Baikang narrowed his eyes, immediately recognizing the extraordinary nature of the golden robe. Having worked in the World Commerce Association for so many years, he had examined countless items and recognized almost every refining material in the world. Yet, he couldn't discern the material of this golden robe. His pupils constricted, especially when he looked at the sword... The sword's patterns were ancient and simple, resembling designs he'd seen in High Antiquity texts. With his discerning eye and cultivation level, he immediately sensed the immense power contained within this sword. Its quality was definitely no less than that of a top-grade spiritual treasure.

He desperately wanted to use his Divine Sense to examine the golden robe and the sword, but doing so without permission was a grave taboo in the Cultivation World; the other party would see it as a provocation. On the other hand, if it were someone with a lower cultivation level than him, he would not hesitate to forcibly examine them, but this person was Niu Youde, whose cultivation was no weaker than his own. The fact that he himself couldn't see through Niu Youde's cultivation level was proof enough.

"Brother Niu, what's going on?" Yin Baikang asked in confusion.

Yue Qianchou glanced at him coldly and said indifferently, "There is an Ascension Platform in the Misty Forest, with an Ascension Platform Ascension Horn hanging on it. Any cultivator who has broken through to the late Spirit Transformation stage can go to the Ascension Platform and blow the Ascension Horn, and Immortal Realm Reception Envoy will descend and take them to the Immortal Realm. Some time ago, a young man named Yue Qianchou broke into the Ascension Platform, mistakenly blew the Ascension Horn, and summoned this envoy..."

"Ah..." Yin Baikang was dumbfounded. There really was Ascension Platform in the Misty Forest. He... he was actually the Reception Envoy from the Immortal Realm...

Yin Baikang was somewhat dazed, listening in astonishment as the other party continued, "Who would have thought that Yue Qianchou's cultivation hadn't even reached the Nascent Spirit Transformation stage? Let alone broken through to the late Spirit Transformation stage, it's simply absurd. In a fit of anger, I originally wanted to kill him, but I was also curious as to why someone with his cultivation could enter the Misty Forest. It turns out he himself didn't know either. So I left the Misty Forest to investigate the reason for this. If we don't figure it out, and if everyone can enter the Misty Forest and randomly blow the Ascension Horn, wouldn't that be a joke?"

At this point, Yue Qianchou's expression turned indifferent as he turned to Yin Baikang and asked, "Brother Yin, where do you think I come from?"

Yin Baikang swallowed hard, unsure how to answer. Niu Youde's words, combined with the events of the past few days, made everything clear. No wonder he'd never heard of Niu Youde in the Cultivation World; someone with such high cultivation shouldn't have never made a name for himself there. No wonder Niu Youde only appeared after Yue Qianchou entered Cultivation World Misty Forest; it turned out that Niu Youde Yue Qianchou unintentionally lured him there. No wonder Niu Youde didn't take any Cultivation World experts seriously; as an Immortal Realm Reception Envoy, why would he need to care about Cultivation World?

There was also the Restriction Breaking Pill that could forcibly boost cultivation, and the supreme-grade Spirit Stones he casually tossed out at the foot of the mountain—all these things indicated that he had an extraordinary background...

Looking at the powerful, ancient sword and the golden robe shimmering with golden light, Yin Baikang was completely convinced, yet still found it hard to accept. The person standing before him was actually an immortal from the celestial realm? Stories of immortals descending to the mortal world existed only in legends; he never imagined he would actually encounter one. It was truly unbelievable...

"Brother Niu... Brother Niu..." Yin Baikang felt that this address was a bit awkward, and he didn't know if it was still appropriate to call him that now.

Yue Qianchou smiled faintly. He sheathed his sword and took off his golden robe, putting it away as well. Then he said, "Brother Yin, don't worry about it, we can remain as before. But there's one thing I must tell you upfront: you must not tell anyone else about my identity. Besides you, only Yue Qianchou knows my identity, but I've already warned that kid, he won't reveal it."

"I'd be keeping this a secret for as long as possible, why would I tell anyone!" Yin Baikang concealed his overwhelming joy, forcing himself to maintain composure, and nodded, saying, "Brother Niu, please rest assured, I will never tell anyone your identity. By the way..."

Yin Baikang seemed to suddenly remember something, his brows furrowed, and he asked, "Brother Niu, do you still remember Yan Zhuixing? To my shame, I had some doubts about you before, but now I have no doubt about it. I'd like to ask you, Brother Niu, what exactly happened with Yan Zhuixing?"

"Hehe! I've heard about your pursuit of Yan Zhuixing. I was just saying it casually, I didn't expect it to cause such a stir. Whether you believe me or not, what does it have to do with me? But one thing is beyond doubt."

Yue Qianchou said solemnly, "The Cultivation Method that Yan Zhuixing practices is not simple. I never expected that there would be such a domineering cultivation method in the mortal world. It really surprises me. If it weren't for the special cultivation Cultivation Method I practice, and the fact that I am also subject to certain restrictions in the Immortal Realm, making it unsuitable for me to switch to other cultivation methods, I would personally capture that kid and study him carefully."

"That's strange. Brother Niu's judgment is certainly not wrong, but Bing Chengzi dares to make a false oath against the heavens. Isn't he afraid of retribution?" Yin Baikang asked, puzzled.

"I've heard about this, and to be honest, I'm also a bit confused," Yue Qianchou pondered. "Could it be that this cultivation technique is even more powerful than I imagined, making people willing to risk divine retribution to protect it? No, there must be other reasons. How could there be such a heaven-defying technique in the mortal realm? Otherwise, the immortal realm wouldn't stand idly by."

A strange light flashed in Yin Baikang's eyes, but it disappeared in an instant. He tentatively asked, "Is there some heaven-defying technique in the mortal realm that the immortal realm knows about?"

"Do you really think Yan Zhuixing can create some heaven-defying Cultivation Method?" Yue Qianchou retorted, then sneered, "This realm did produce some heaven-defying figures before High Antiquity, almost causing the Immortal Realm to change dynasties, but in the end they were still wiped out. Everything that should be destroyed has been destroyed, so it's impossible for them to leave behind any heaven-defying techniques."

That's not necessarily true; nothing is absolute! Yin Baikang felt his heart racing. Had this realm actually produced someone who almost caused a change in the celestial realm? Suppressing his emotions, he calmly said, "Since the celestial realm has already taken action to eliminate them, then there shouldn't be any more. Brother Niu, don't worry. I'll try to investigate Yan Zhuixing again, and if there's any news, I'll let you know."

"Yes! Investigate thoroughly, investigate Yan Zhuixing to the death. I have confidence in the power of your World Commerce Association, don't waste my efforts!" Yue Qianchou nodded and changed the subject, saying, "Brother Yin, I wonder if you have prepared the remaining eight hundred million high-grade Spirit Stones?"

Yin Baikang felt a pang of heartache upon hearing this, but forced a smile and said, "I promised Brother Niu, so of course I won't go back on my word. But there's one thing I don't know: Brother Niu, as Reception Envoy in the Immortal Realm, surely you wouldn't be short of Spirit Stone?"

"Brother Yin, you may not know this, but Spirit Stone are universally accepted in the Immortal Realm. Alas!" Yue Qianchou suddenly shook his head and sighed, "Brother Yin, don't think that Reception Envoy in the Immortal Realm is so great. In the Immortal Realm, it's really nothing special. I'm ashamed!"

"Hehe! Brother Niu is too modest." Yin Baikang said nicely, but in his heart he sneered. How could a mere errand boy from the Immortal Realm be worthy of respect?

Not long after he finished speaking, Sikong Jue came up carrying several Storage Bag. Yin Baikang took the Storage Bag, waved for Sikong Jue leave, and then handed the Storage Bag to Yue Qianchou. The latter naturally accepted them without hesitation.

"Brother Niu, when will the Restriction Breaking Pill be ready?" Yin Baikang asked.
