A Passing Traveler

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

At this moment, Qing Cha returned, bringing with her an identity token and a jade slip.

"The Registration Hall Master said that he is Master's junior brother, so he is an assistant to the sect and should receive Profound Rank Plate." Qing Cha sniffed, her little face showing some envy.

Qin Yi asked, "Does this mean you have a very high status?"

"Yes, the Palace Master is the only Heaven Rank. The heads of each sect and the important stewards of each hall in the palace are Earth Rank Plate, while the assistants and Peak Master of each sect are Profound Rank Plate, which are of very high status."

"You're your master's disciple, shouldn't you also have a Yellow Plate?"

Qing Cha pulled out a small metal tag. "I don't have it, I'm not yellow."

Ju Yunxiu said, "Qing Cha is just a page I've guided. It's good enough that she can take human form and paint a few pictures. In reality, she lacks even Spirit Root and is difficult to improve. To the Immortal Palace, she's just a lowly registered member, treated as a palace person, with no real status. However, Qing Cha is my closest relative, and no one dares to treat her like a maid."

"Seriously? Is the Celestial Palace really that hierarchical? What's the intention of the immortals?"

"As long as cultivation requires resource allocation, there will be hierarchical levels," Ju Yunxiu said calmly. "Take the cave abode you need, for example. That's a resource; everyone wants it, so how can it be divided?"

Qin Yi remained silent for a moment, then sighed and said, "Alright, then what is this jade slip?"

"You can take a look at some of my information when you get to the cave abode." Ju Yunxiu went out first, turning back with a smile, "Don't just stand there, take the token and follow me."

The Ten Thousand Dao Immortal Palace is an entire mountain range with countless green peaks.

Among them, the Zither, Chess, Calligraphy, Painting Sect, and Painting" does not refer to a single mountain, but rather a region of mountains. Ju Yunxiu is located on the Main Peak of this region, surrounded by many lower peaks hidden in the clouds and mist.

In its heyday, this school of thought was dominated by masters of Zither, Chess, Calligraphy, Painting, and painting, each occupying a separate mountain peak where they would discuss Main Peak.

Therefore, below the sect master, there is also the concept of Peak Master. Now, Qin Yi's identity is equivalent to a Peak Master, and he can own a small mountain peak.

Now, the entire sect has dwindled in talent, with only a handful of people remaining. For Qin Yi, this means he can freely occupy any of the surrounding side peaks and choose from the countless immortal abodes established by his predecessors, without needing to create one himself.

There weren't any particularly high-end cave abode; the highest one was created by a predecessor at the Huiyang realm.

Because the truly impressive place is actually the Main Peak, the summit where Ju Yunxiu resides. What appears to be a wooden hut is actually a super cave abode that spans the entire mountain. To cultivate in an even more impressive cave abode, well... well...

Ju Yunxiu, with his hands behind his back, hovered in the air, looking at the handkerchief Qin Yi was sitting on, his eyes full of amusement. "Your Flying Magical Artifact is quite interesting, junior brother."

Qin Yi blushed and stammered, "This..."

"Stop talking, I understand." Ju Yunxiu clicked her tongue. "So you two are lovers after all. Where does your sister-in-law cultivate? She seems to have the aura of the Myriad Phenomena Asura Sect? She doesn't seem quite a good match for you. Should Senior Sister introduce you to someone?"

"This isn't your sister-in-law," Qin Yi matter-of-factly, extending his hand. "If you give me one, I won't need this handkerchief anymore."

"That wouldn't be good. It's your token of love; how can I just replace it with something else?"

Qin Yi said disdainfully, "Stingy."

Ju Yunxiu wasn't embarrassed at all and said directly, "If I give you something and someone sees it and thinks that my sister-in-law is me, what will happen then? You should just refine your own Law Artifact."

"I suspect you're deliberately flirting with me."

"Do you have any evidence?" Ju Yunxiu said, "Hurry up, hurry up, I'm going to sleep after I choose my cave abode. It's a waste of precious sleep time to chat with you all morning."

Qin Yi pointed to the surrounding mountains. "You just tell me this whole area is full of cave abode, all of them are high-class, without any introduction or explanation. How am I supposed to choose?"

"An introduction?" Ju Yunxiu said disdainfully, "You're just a little brother whose musical heart hasn't even stabilized yet. This whole area is full of Huiyang cave abode; you could lie down anywhere and that would be enough for you. What more could you want?"

"I'm going to... betray my sect!"

"Okay, okay, tell me what you need."

Qin Yi was taken aback for a moment, staring at her without saying a word.

He talks a big game, making all sorts of demands... but in reality, he has absolutely no demands. The ancient Ancient Corpse's tranquil cave abode was already a stroke of luck for him...

Ju Yunxiu's expression turned into a half-smile, "What... with that expression, could it be that your requirement is any cave abode, but you want me?"

Qin Yi awkwardly controlled the Brocade Handkerchief and retreated several feet. "No, no... well, I need cave abode with Earth Fire."

"Earth Fire... for alchemy?" Ju Yunxiu pondered for a moment, then casually pointed to a range of green mountains on the right. "That one will do. There's a pine tree in front of the cave. You can transform into a child and ask him if you need anything."

After saying that, he ran off irresponsibly, looking like he really wanted to go to sleep.

Qin Yi was speechless. This woman could be incredibly Immortal Qi when she was serious, and incredibly Immortal Qi when she was being weird. It was as if she wasn't one person, but rather a mixture of several different kinds of people.

We've only just met, and there's plenty of time to get to know each other better.

He descended from the clouds and arrived at the heart of the mountain, where there was clearly a stone gate. To the left and right of the stone gate stood two short pine trees, looking as if they were welcoming guests.

Seeing Qin Yi descend, Ai Song transformed into a pair of short, chubby-headed children. "Who are you, guest?"

Qin Yi took out his Waist Tag: "Senior Sister Yunxiu said that I can live on this peak from now on."

Both boys bowed and said, "Greetings, Peak Master."

"You're welcome. My Qin Yi. Just call me by my name. I don't care about anything else. Peak Master is annoying."

"Qingfeng Mingyue greets Mr. Qin..."

"Your former Peak Master must have been very uncultured."

The Qingfeng Mingyue remained silent, offering no reply.

Qin Yi looked around and asked, "What peak is this? I need to know my own address."

"Oh, this is the Ten Thousand Dao Immortal Palace Ninety-First Peak, and it is also the gateway peak facing the Medicine, Divination, Schemes, Calculations Sect over there. The former Peak Master did not name it."

Qin Yi's cheek twitched. "Can I name it?"

"Sure."

Qin Yi looked up for a while, feeling that this "entering the sect" was too fast. He felt no sense of belonging or participation, as if he were just a passerby on his quest for the Dao, bidding farewell to his fellow Daoists and leaving.

That's pretty much the truth.

Ju Yunxiu clearly didn't really treat him as a close junior brother, but rather as a sect protector. It felt more like, "I'll provide you with resources for cultivation, but you have to help me fight." After all, she couldn't do everything herself; that would ruin her prestige.

Qin Yi could even imagine how awkward it would be if, during a competition between different sects, the other sect sent out its most talented juniors while Qin Yi was left with only Qing Cha standing there... It was no wonder that Ju Yunxiu wanted him, Qin Yi.

Rather than joining a sect, it's more accurate to say that he joined a martial arts gang as a guest, or simply that he was a guest.

The sense of being able to leave at any time has become even stronger.

This is not my hometown.

Looking at the distant, misty mountains, he suddenly smiled and said, "Let's call it Transient Peak."

Both boys bowed their heads and said, "Yes, sir."

A golden light flashed, and three large characters slowly appeared on the mountain peak: Transient Peak.

Qin Yi seemed to realize something; these two boys were actually the mountain spirits of this place.

"A passerby?" Inside the Main Peak, Ju Yunxiu reclined on a soft couch, chuckling softly, "We all come to this world as passersby; who isn't?"
