Ten Thousand Dao Immortal Palace (Event Mass Release)

The fastest update to Seeking the Dao in the Mortal World!

Qin Yi descended from the clouds and landed in the mountains. Looking around, he saw a primeval forest where the shrubs were half a person tall.

Without guidance, one would certainly not find the path; Jing Ze likely came here because of ancestral guidance.

This kind of thing is no problem at all for Qin Yi and Liusu.

It's nothing more than a concealed formation; as long as you follow a certain direction, what you see will be completely different. Even mortals could accidentally stumble into a fairyland.

This kind of concealment is never aggressive, nor is it unsolvable. If a mortal accidentally stumbles upon this place, it is also a kind of Immortal Opportunity.

Qin Yi wandered aimlessly through the mountains, sometimes even venturing into seemingly pathless ravines. As he walked, he began to exhibit unusual behavior.

For several hundred paces along both banks, there were no other trees, only fragrant grasses and fallen petals... Well, if we don't interpret it literally, the scenery is indeed quite similar.

Passing through this mountain valley Peach Garden, a White Jade Mountain Gate came into view. Cranes perched on the gate, strolling leisurely, while white deer pounced between the gates. Seeing Qin Yi, they showed some curiosity and then spoke in human language, "Where do you come from, fellow Daoist?"

Qin Yi was somewhat puzzled. "You said that the cranes and white deer are speaking human language in the immortal palace. Is this considered Auspicious Omen or a demonic creature?" He continued, "Other places use gatekeepers to guard their mountain gates, but here they use cranes and white deer. It certainly has a sense of immortality and makes people even more excited."

As for the kind of obsession that Jing Ze mentioned, it's not wrong in a certain sense. It's just that if there are gamblers and lechers involved, it feels a bit evil and not orthodox.

A thought flashed through his mind, and he replied, "My name is Qin Yi, and I have come here specifically to seek the Dao."

Bai Lu looked him up and down, then asked in surprise, "You've reached the peak of the Phoenix Initial Completion, your cultivation is very solid, and your method is very powerful. But this kind of method... seems to be unheard of in this world. Did you figure it out on your own?"

Qin Yi then said, "I am just a Rogue Cultivator who has obtained some inheritance by chance, but I only have the basics and am confused about the future. I heard that the Ten Thousand Dao Immortal Palace is inclusive and open-minded, so I came to visit."

"In that case..." Bai Lu said, "Those Rogue Cultivator cultivators who haven't yet attained mastery of the zither and haven't found their own path can still become disciples of this immortal palace. Fellow Daoist, have you come to become a disciple or to seek the Dao?"

"First, seek the Way."

The word "first" is somewhat meaningful, seemingly implying that if one is satisfied, one might actually become an apprentice.

The truth is that Liusu had told him during their aerial travels that if he liked this sect, he might as well become its disciple. Liusu, however, never sought any title of master or disciple; on the contrary, she was extremely interested in the various new paths that had emerged since ancient times and wanted to learn more about them.

Qin Yi also understood that tens of thousands of years ago, the world must have been relatively Savage Wilderness, and it was impossible for it to have the civilization it has today. Zither, Chess, Calligraphy, Painting, painting, poetry, songs, and even fine wine and food were all extremely crude back then. How could they possibly have developed corresponding immortal Immortal Dao? But over tens of thousands of years of change, these things progressed accordingly, and in this world rich in Spiritual Qi, they gradually attained the Dao.

Leaving aside the Daoist Arts that are improved upon by building upon the work of predecessors, this entirely new system is what particularly interests Liusu, which is the fundamental reason why she has been urging Qin Yi to come to the Ten Thousand Dao Immortal Palace.

The crane and the white deer were not displeased by the seemingly self-aggrandizing remark, "First seek the Dao." Their cultivation had long since surpassed the stage where they would get angry over a few words. Moreover, Qin Yi's age and cultivation level were truly a treasure that all the major sects were vying for, and he was qualified to be transferred.

The crane then said, "Fellow Daoist, please follow me."

Qin Yi bowed to the white deer and followed the crane up the mountain.

Along the way, the crane asked, "Fellow Daoist, how did you learn about my Ten Thousand Dao Immortal Palace?"

Qin Yi said, "I came here guided by Fellow Minghe of the Celestial Pivot Divine Palace."

"The Celestial Pivot Divine Palace." The crane was surprised. "They actually think highly of my Ten Thousand Dao Immortal Palace... That's truly astonishing. They claim to be the number one sect in the Divine Continent. Why don't you go there to seek your Dao, fellow Daoist?"

Qin Yi smiled and said, "Precisely because of their high social standing."

"Hehe..." The crane actually laughed happily, its feathers trembling wildly. "Not bad, not bad, fellow Daoist may indeed suit the tastes of my Ten Thousand Dao Immortal Palace."

Qin Yi's words were not just a perfunctory response.

When I first consulted Minghe relationship hadn't progressed. At that time, Minghe only introduced me to the Ten Thousand Dao Immortal Palace after I mentioned wanting to experience the new Dao of this world. I wonder if, if our relationship had changed later, Minghe would have been willing to invite me to the Celestial Pivot Divine Palace?

I doubt it...

Besides the complicated emotions, it was indeed because of their high social standing.

Before long, they climbed the white jade steps to a platform. The surroundings were open; it was already a mountaintop, and as far as the eye could see, the mountains were covered in snow, and it was impossible to tell where any one place was.

In the center of the platform sat a giant Stone Turtle, its limbs and back radiating magical light. Seeing the crane leading the people over, the Stone Turtle surprisingly spoke, "Which way?"

The crane smiled and asked Qin Yi, "Zither, Chess, Calligraphy, Painting, calligraphy, painting, Eating, Drinking, Whoring, Gambling, whoring, gambling, Strange Skills and Ingenious Crafts, cunning Medicine, Divination, Schemes, Calculations, and strategy—these are my four major systems. Which one would you like to visit first, fellow Daoist?"

In fact, Qin Yi wanted to see the Zither, Chess, Calligraphy, Painting, calligraphy, and painting. Besides the influence of Jing Ze, he himself was indeed a painter. In addition, he knew that the so-called "Strange Skills and Ingenious Crafts and frivolous crafts" had nothing to do with "frivolity" but rather referred to the concept of craftsmanship, which was something a modern person would quite like to see.

But nothing is as jarring as "Eating, Drinking, Whoring, Gambling, gambling" and "gambling". My first reaction was to see what was going on. How could even this be considered the path to Immortal Dao?

"Um... shall we check out the Eating, Drinking, Whoring, Gambling area first?"

As expected, the crane laughed. Many seekers of the Dao must have been startled by this, and Qin Yi's reaction was certainly not the first, nor would it be the last.

Upon hearing this, the magic circle on the Stone Turtle's right lit up, and beams of light formed pillars as if they were solid. The crane led Qin Yi into the pillars of light. Qin Yi felt a flash of light before his eyes, and the space distorted. When he opened his eyes again, he was in a place that resembled a town.

The place was incredibly noisy; shouts, laughter, and curses mingled and echoed throughout. The aroma of wine and food wafted through the air. Qin Yi scratched his head speechlessly and turned to the crane, asking, "Are you sure this is a celestial palace?"

The crane laughed and said, "This is the most criticized aspect of my palace's system, but it is indeed a Dao. The palace master believes that it also belongs to the myriad Daos, and therefore, it will be treated equally once it is included in my palace."

Entering the "town," a brewery immediately comes into view. People are steaming fragrant immortal rice and drying it, seemingly oblivious to Qin Yi and the crane. The aroma of wine is intoxicatingly strong within the brewery. Someone, dressed in tattered clothes, lies in the courtyard, fast asleep, clutching Wine Gourd, muttering in their sleep, "Good wine... another cup..."

Qin Yi sniffed; he could appreciate fine wine, and the aroma of this wine was truly enticing.

Seeing his expression, the crane said, "There is True Intention in the wine, and it seems you understand it, fellow Daoist. Would you like to go in and take a look?"

Qin Yi then asked, "Is it mainly about the art of winemaking and the art of wine tasting?"

"Good."

"Although I can drink a few cups, I'm really not fond of this stuff. Giving me a gourdful of wine to drink on the road is fine, but there's no need for me to study it in detail."

The crane laughed and said, "Then forget it, I am not suited for this path."

Continue walking; there are restaurants on the left and casinos on the right.

Qin Yi understood that food could be considered a form of philosophy, and felt there was no need to delve into it. What puzzled him, however, was the gambling, so he turned right and entered the gambling den.

As soon as I walked in, I saw a group of people with flushed faces surrounding a table, shouting "Big Big Big!" "Small Small Small!" Their expressions were crazed, no different from any other gambling addict in the world.

Before they could even look at the other gambling methods, a burly man approached them, smiling and asking, "A new face, seeking enlightenment? You seem to value this, personally leading the way."

The crane said, "Indeed, I don't understand your way either. Why don't you demonstrate it to the seeker?"

The burly man glanced at Qin Yi and handed him a few crystals. "Take these and gamble for a bit, you'll see. If you lose, it's on me; if you win, we'll split it 50/50."

This is a two-way choice.

It was both to show Qin Yi something and to observe whether Qin Yi was in line with this approach.

Qin Yi weighed the crystal in his hand and asked curiously, "If you lose, it's on you? Aren't you going to cause me any trouble?"

The burly man laughed heartily, "Of course I won't look for one."

"Oh." Qin Yi directly put the crystal into the ring.

"???" the burly man asked in astonishment, "What does this mean?"

Qin Yi looked completely innocent. "I guess I lost."

The burly man was both amused and exasperated. "Go, go, go! You don't need to study our methods anymore! You should go find those cunning bastards who know the ways of scheming; you might find some kindred spirits there."
