New Chapter: Someone Has Come from Beyond the World
Wang Xuan looked at Zhuo Yanran. Was she going to get beaten up just for eating a piece of bamboo shoot? He said, "Girl, be more magnanimous. It's just a piece of Yin-Yang Jade Bamboo Shoot. What's the big deal?"
"Ha, you're so generous, why didn't you see us off?" Zhuo Yanran retorted.
An Jingqi added, "She said you were going to get beaten up, so it's like she divined your fate in advance."
"You've finished your fruit platter, and they've even brought more fresh fruit. Oh, so each of you had two platters. I'll give you my second one as a way of returning the favor." After saying this, Wang Xuan picked up another piece of fruit and put it in his mouth before getting up and leaving.
It was obvious that both women's eyes were on him, making him feel like he was being pricked by needles.
Wang Xuan looked around and found that no one else had a second fruit platter. He couldn't help but think to himself, "Those two must have connections!"
Then, he found the Young Lang Tian, broke open the whole Purple Mansion Peach he had obtained, gave half of it to the wolf, and shared the remaining half with the wolverine.
This top-tier celestial fruit is indeed extraordinary; it is a powerful tonic that can prolong life and raise the upper limit of life.
Recently, Wang Xuan's vitality has been abundant, and he has been taking supplements from time to time. He has caught more than a dozen True Return Fish in the Mysterious Sea, and he is truly a pioneer in the Good Fortune Garden.
"Second Father, you are truly amazing! Everyone else only eats a few small pieces of fruit, but Second Father produced a whole Purple Mansion Peach in one go!" Young Lang Tian was full of admiration, his eyes shining.
Then, he whispered to Wang Xuan that his bloodline had been revived and that he had inherited some things deep in his consciousness, but they were still somewhat scattered and incomplete.
Wolf Sky believes that there are things related to the Dao-imperialized in his memories, but unfortunately, they have only just begun to emerge and have not yet fully appeared.
Otherwise, he could give it to Wang Xuan for reference.
"Eat up, and keep quiet in a place like this." Wang Xuan patted his head. For now, the rare bones and other things he had found were enough.
This time, he looked at the records on the golden paper, and they were indeed related to the Imperial Way. Moreover, unlike the previous scriptures, it was mysterious and complex, talking about cultivating one's own Imperial Dao Texture, from one point to the whole body.
Wang Xuan attached great importance to it.
In addition, Lu Renjia also gained something, seeing some of the textures in that strange bone.
"Someone's coming," the wolverine whispered. He also instructed Wolf Sky to talk less and observe more here, not even to communicate telepathically.
Wang Xuan turned around and was immediately stunned. Wasn't that Wei Bo, the great victim?
When the Good Fortune Garden was involved in an incident, Wei Bo was imprisoned and severely punished by his clansmen. However, after examining his consciousness, they confirmed that it was indeed unrelated to him and released him.
Wei Bo, with short silver hair, modern attire, and striking features, is objectively quite handsome, but he has now completely lost his edge.
Perhaps, with a hint of weariness, he disappeared, stealing the Primordial Chaos Divine Mud to fuse with? He thought the possibility was extremely low; he was probably killed.
Just a few days ago, he was full of vigor and self-importance, regarding some talented geniuses as mere pawns, believing he could control their fate.
He felt a sense of desolation. This grand event didn't make him feel lively at all. What he felt was the coldness of human relationships, and a chill ran through him.
Even Yan Fei, Hao Ren, Tong Zheng, who were once close to him, now barely talk to him anymore.
Wei Bo came over with the Revitalizing Wine, poured out two cups, handed one to Wang Xuan, and said, "This otherworldly fireworks display, this grand event, although bustling with people and seemingly incredibly lively, I feel as if I'm detached from it all, standing alone on a cold, desolate ice plain. Only when I see you do I feel like having a drink."
Wang Xuan actually disliked this person very much. He had witnessed the second person's aggressive attitude, his arrogance and domineering manner, and how the second person treated him like a dog. This made Wang Xuan unable to tolerate it any longer and killed him.
Now, Wei Bo is depressed and has come here seeking empathy, which leaves him speechless. Clearly, it all stems from the Star Moon River's misunderstanding, which led Wei Bo to mistakenly believe that they were both down on their luck, and that they empathized and shared the same plight.
Wang Xuan said nothing, took the wine cup, and drank it all in one gulp. After all, this was Returning Yang Wine Sap that could help people practice their skills and was beneficial for walking the path of Dao-imperialized.
"Take care, everything is understood without words. In the future, if I rise again and cultivate Destined Body far surpassing my current one, I will reunite with Brother Kong and drink a cup together at the pinnacle of glory." After saying this, Wei Bo turned and left, departing early.
"Who is this big brother?" the wolverine asked.
"Wei Bo, the victim of the Good Fortune Garden," Wang Xuan told him.
The wolverine was stunned and speechless. How could this even work?
Soon, their attention was diverted to the super internet celebrity, Qingya, who had also entered.
It has to be said that the crow alone was a sight to behold, attracting many onlookers who wondered how he could even get in.
Qingya remained calm, took the initiative to find Lu Renjia, clinked glasses with him, and told him how he got in and the path he would take in the future.
"Let them laugh at me. If I can truly become a unit of measurement for combat power and spread throughout the starry sky, then I will follow the Ancient Method and walk the path of godhood that was abandoned by the Supernatural Realm. In this era, there are no competitors, and so many people are chanting my name. Perhaps I can truly achieve eternal divine fire and elevate the divine kingdom."
That's why he was able to get in. He told the old man at the gate that he wanted to go, and the old man made an exception and let him in.
Lu Renjia patted him on the shoulder and said, "All roads lead to the true saint. Those who bravely forge ahead and overcome obstacles are true warriors. The future is promising, and we are both on the road."
"Thank you for your kind words, brother!" Qingya nodded. He had long since let go of his grudges and had no more burdens. His gaze was firm as he said, "Now, what I need to do is crush those geniuses. If one day I become Super Peerless, or even an extraordinary being, I will turn them all into 0.00001 Qingyas!"
"I'm in pain!" Upon hearing this, a superhuman passing by spat out part of the cup of Returning Yang Wine Sap he had just drunk, feeling extremely distressed.
Qingya ignored him, greeted Lu Renjia, turned away, and walked off.
Within this colossal palace, there are many powerful True Immortals and Heavenly Grade Expert, making it a truly prestigious gathering. Although the number of participating star regions is less than one hundred, it still exceeds eighty.
Although the Eternal Life Fruit Gathering is not among the largest events in the universe, it is still famous throughout the starry sea. Many top lineages know about it, and even creatures from other worlds occasionally cast their gaze upon it.
Among this group of prodigies, there were naturally some people Wang Xuan disliked, such as Zhu Hong of the Candle Dragon Clan, the clan's number one expert at the Heavenly level. It was a pity that he didn't participate in the Bronze Arena, otherwise Wang Xuan would have guaranteed to crush him last time.
Zhu Hong also disliked Kong Xuan, his eyes filled with icy coldness. Then, ignoring the Second King of Five Elements Mountain, he went to have a lively chat with Lu Renjia.
To maintain his rebellious image, Kong Xuan held his head high, glanced at him sideways, and walked past him twice in a swaggering manner, looking like he was ready to fight.
Clearly, he was also intentionally cooperating with Lu Renjia to provoke his rivals, making them pay more attention to Lu Renjia and put in more effort.
After all, among the True Immortals from various sects present at the meeting, only Lu Renjia can keep Kong Xuan in check; this is a consensus among everyone!
Kong Xuan will stay with the Black Peacock Clan and won't run away. It will be very difficult to kill him in secret, and it's also very easy to lose control. If everyone resorts to such unscrupulous means, and all the old monsters from various clans come out, then the Universe Sea of Stars will be in chaos.
Wang Xuan was also observing another person, the unfamiliar young man who had ignored him when they went to the side hall earlier. The closer he looked, the stranger he found him to be.
He enhanced his Spiritual Heavenly Eye with the Imperial Dao Texture, and then gradually saw some clues. Could this be Wu Dalang? Wu Tian is here again?
He had to sigh; if it really was this person, their method of concealing themselves was too powerful. Even his Spiritual Heavenly Eye could only vaguely discern some traces.
It must be him!
Wang Xuan could only sigh in disbelief. Wu Tian was incredibly audacious; after escaping from the Good Fortune Garden, he actually came to attend the grand event with a straight face.
Moreover, Wang Xuan inquired about Wu Tian's current identity and found that he was a renowned genius who had defeated the True Immortals of the Great Star Domains many years ago and remained undefeated. Now, he was already Heavenly Grade Expert.
Wang Xuan was certain that Wu Tian must have put a lot of effort into creating this alias, and that he would probably only appear with such a glamorous identity on such a formal occasion.
No wonder Wu Tian risked his life to break through the Good Fortune Garden; he was probably after the Primordial Chaos Divine Mud. Although Wu Tian's identity is not in question now, he is, after all, present in person, and it would be dangerous if he were exposed.
Soon, some commotion arose in the area. The news that had been waiting for finally arrived: the Masked Social Party was about to begin, and the local prodigies were invited to a side hall.
"Let's go, brothers, let's go take a look. I heard the other side has a terrifyingly powerful background!" Six-Eyed Golden Cicada and Xiong Shan, the two chief commanders, came over together and called Wolverine and Kong Xuan to go with them.
On the other side, Xuan Tian and Black Crane also appeared, calling Lu Renjia to go together. They were descendants of Anomalous Beings, but they had never been in contact with the True Saint Family and wanted to see them.
"I haven't felt this slightly nervous and excited in many years," Xuan Tian murmured. Although his bloodline was extraordinary and his background astonishing, he was still far inferior to the Daoist lineages of the secluded world.
"Are they really from another world?" Lu Renjia asked.
"Almost!" Black Crane nodded.
On the other side, when Wang Xuan passed by An Jingqi and Zhuo Yanran, he saw their fruit platters. Damn it, they had put out new ones again, and the Imperial Wine was also newly delivered. He was indignant and felt it was too unfair.
The Second King of Five Elements Mountain rushed over, but the two women had already seen him. They immediately picked up the fruit plate and held the jade pot, looking at him as if he were a thief.
He said sheepishly, "You've already sent over my second portion? Okay, we're even then. Want to go to the social gathering together?"
"I'm not going!"
Then he saw the backs of two heads.
Wang Xuan thought that the two women were taking advantage of the situation, acting like this was a buffet restaurant because of their connections. They even allowed customers to get refills and leisurely drink wine, which was incredibly decadent.
There is a dressing room in the side hall where one can change one's attire and alter one's physical form, because once those masks are put on, one cannot immediately discern who one is, as a hazy halo blocks divine sense from probing.
Wang Xuan was certain that the owner of this place could see through everyone, and that the masks and other items provided likely contained hidden doors.
So, he casually put on a peacock mask and went out, striding with the domineering gait characteristic of the Five Elements Mountain Second Great King, head held high, heading straight for the Returning Yang Wine Sap on the Jade Stone Table.
Both he and Lu Renjia possessed Spiritual Heavenly Eye, and those special masks could not block their gaze, so they could recognize each other.
The side hall is also very large, with a water system layout. The water is drawn from the Star Moon River, which is silvery and bright, with duckweed and aquatic plants floating in it, and layers of green clouds flowing around it.
The side hall also has a Seven Treasure Pond, planted with rare and exotic flowers, and there is even a real dragon swimming at the bottom of the pond, showing the extraordinary atmosphere of this place.
Unfortunately, Wang Xuan had only drunk one cup of wine when he was stopped by a man wearing Phoenix Mask, who told him that each person only had one cup, and if he wanted to drink more, he would have to do something to impress others.
"Excuse me, sir, have you broken through the limit four times?" the young man asked politely but somewhat distantly.
"No," Wang Xuan shook his head.
The other person nodded, remaining polite, and after a few more words, said "excuse me" and left, showing a slight distance between them.
"The Daoist lineage of the secluded world is so extraordinary, yet it's not valued unless it breaks through its limits four times?" Wang Xuan frowned.
He naturally saw the man's true face; he had never seen this person before, and he was most likely one of the people from another world.
He observed that there were four young men and women moving through the crowd, talking with the extraordinary people from various races. All four were very peaceful and polite, but also maintained a proper distance. Were these people from the outside world probing him?
Four men and women wearing different masks left one after another and entered a door next to them. Inside, there was a curtain to cover the way, and strange treasures were emitting chaotic energy. Although the door was not closed, it was difficult for people outside to see what was inside.
Even with his Spiritual Heavenly Eye, Wang Xuan could only vaguely discern that it was a woman sitting behind a desk, with a pair of picture books and documents on the table, listening to the reports of four men and women.
The woman behind the desk wore a White Fox Mask. Her figure was graceful and slender, and she was shrouded in the chaotic mist emanating from the magical treasure, making her appear hazy and indistinct, like looking at flowers through a fog.
Wang Xuan could only sigh that the Daoist traditions of the secluded world were indeed extraordinary, protected by divine objects, making it difficult for him to fully comprehend the situation there for a time.
"Want to see the details, understand their reality and their decisions?" Suddenly, the voice of the Mysterious Mobile Phone rang in his ear.
"Don't do anything reckless!" Wang Xuan warned, afraid that it would fly out and cause trouble.
The Mysterious Mobile Phone, "Don't worry, I won't come out. It's just that the earlier surprise delivery event is related to people from the other world. Would you like to take a look first?"
Then, it reflected some scenery in Wang Xuan's eyes, conveying some images to him. At this moment, the woman wearing White Fox Mask in the room opened a picture book, which depicted Kong Xuan and had dense annotations, all of which were his detailed information.
Wang Xuan's heart skipped a beat. Had the other party come prepared and investigated thoroughly? He whispered, "Then let's take a look and listen to see what's going on there!"
