Ninth-Grade Immortal Realm

"Both?" Upon hearing this, Ma Feifei felt a bit uneasy. Neither of these two things was easy to accomplish. As for cultivation, he would definitely need to complete a large-scale cultural invasion mission to step into the Immortal Realm, but this mission would take a long time to complete, and it certainly couldn't be completed in a short period of time.

The other Bookstore level is even more difficult; heaven knows how many tasks you have to complete before you can level up.

A little annoyed, Ma Feifei sat down on the small stool in front of Cang Lan. Cang Lan tossed her long hair and looked at Ma Feifei with a smile.

"Ahem, Grand Dean, would it be convenient for you to reveal your current cultivation level?" Ma Feifei hesitated for a moment, but decided to ask Cang Lan for his opinion. After all, since Liuli had already given the Tribulation Book to Cang Lan had the right to make his own choice.

"Realm?" Cang Lan looked at Ma Feifei with a puzzled expression, wondering why he was asking this. After all, a cultivator's realm is usually quite private, especially for someone like her who has already reached a high level.

There are fewer than a handful of people on the mainland who know that she has reached the Half-Immortal Realm.

"Lan has been Half-Immortal Realm for over three hundred years." In the end, Cang Lan truthfully told Ma Feifei about his cultivation level.

Ma Feifei nodded. He wasn't asking this question out of boredom. He already knew Cang Lan's cultivation level from the system. The reason he asked was mainly to see if Cang Lan could answer truthfully. If Cang Lan deliberately concealed his cultivation level from him, then he would have to reconsider whether or not to give Cang Lan the Tribulation Book.

"Here's the thing, the book Liuli gave you yesterday was called 'The Tribulation Book,' but it should now be called 'Cang Lan Tribulation.' Obtaining this book means you've gained the opportunity to step into the Immortal Realm, but this opportunity is quite dangerous, the kind where you're almost guaranteed to die. Do you understand what I mean?" Ma Feifei looked at Cang Lan earnestly and said.

After hearing Ma Feifei's words, Cang Lan's smile gradually disappeared. Looking at the Tribulation Book in Ma Feifei's hand, she asked in surprise, "This book can allow one to step into the Immortal Realm?"

There was a hint of disbelief in his tone, but more so, shock, because the realm of immortals represented far too many things. It was the realm that every cultivator pursued throughout their lives, especially those who had reached the Cang Lan realm, who Covet for the Immortal Realm.

"Yes, if you enter the Tribulation Book World and successfully emerge, you can become an immortal. But if you fail, you will die," Ma Feifei said very seriously.

Ma Feifei roughly understood why Liuli gave the first Tribulation Book to Cang Lan. Cang Lan's Vast Academy was currently in conflict with the Mysterious Bookstore, and this matter had not yet been resolved. However, now that Liuli had given the Tribulation Book to Cang Lan, it meant that the Mysterious Bookstore had given Cang Lan an opportunity to become an immortal.

Such a great favor, even if there were any deep grudges between the Vast Academy and Mysterious Bookstore, would probably vanish with the passing of this Tribulation Book.

Of course, if Cang Lan were to die in the Tribulation Book World, then Vast Academy would lose a cultivator at the Half-Immortal level, and its strength would be greatly reduced. Even if Vast Academy still wanted to cause trouble for the Mysterious Bookstore, it might not be able to get the better of them.

This might be what's called killing two birds with one stone; in any case, Mysterious Bookstore is in the upper hand.

Cang Lan didn't react for a long time after hearing Ma Feifei's words, and it was unclear what she was thinking. Ma Feifei wasn't in a hurry either, after all, this was no small matter, and he wouldn't have made a decision so quickly if he were in her shoes.

"Lan, do you have a choice?" Cang Lan suddenly asked Ma Feifei.

Ma Feifei was taken aback, not understanding why Cang Lan would ask such a question, but still nodded and said, "You can choose not to go in, but you will lose this opportunity."

"Let others have the chance. Lan wants to live a few more years," Cang Lan said with a chuckle.

Upon hearing this, Ma Feifei roughly understood what Cang Lan meant; she didn't believe him!

However, Ma Feifei didn't say much. Perhaps entering the Immortal Realm was indeed a pipe dream for people like them. Ma Feifei and Cang Lan weren't even friends, and the Tribulation Book World was so dangerous, so it was understandable that the other party didn't believe him.

It's a pity about this Tribulation Book. If Cang Lan gives it up, it will disappear, and Cang Lan will lose the entire opportunity. Ma Feifei also cannot give this Tribulation Book to anyone else.

"Alright, here's what we'll do. You have a month to consider it. If you change your mind within a month, you can come find me again." Ma Feifei put the Tribulation Book into his spatial ring and said.

"Then thank you in advance, shopkeeper." Cang Lan returned to her usual demeanor, seemingly not taking the Tribulation Book to heart, but Ma Feifei could sense that Cang Lan's words and actions were no longer as natural as before.

As Ma Feifei had expected, in the ensuing conversation, Cang Lan did not mention the death of Seventh Dean Teng Chong the previous day. Instead, she chatted casually with Ma Feifei and refrained from any of her teasing behavior.

Finally, Cang Lan left the Mysterious Bookstore with a slightly heavy heart, Ma Feifei personally saw her off at the back door.

"Looks like I'm still tempted." Ma Feifei returned to the backyard, lay down on the rocking chair, and took out the Tribulation Book again, muttering to himself.

If it were Saint Chu Feng Yiming today, he might have activated the Tribulation Book World on the spot. But the other party is Cang Lan, a woman who has only recently started dealing with the Mysterious Bookstore and Grand Dean of the Vast Academy.

Her knowledge of the Mysterious Bookstore was limited to what she read on paper; she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, so naturally she was skeptical.

Now, Ma Feifei can only wait for Cang Lan to make her own choice.

To be honest, Ma Feifei also wanted to see with his own eyes what would happen to cultivators on the Azure Dragon Continent once they stepped into the Immortal Realm. This was one of the reasons why Ma Feifei was willing to give Cang Lan this opportunity. If Cang Lan successfully passed through the Tribulation Book World and stepped into the Immortal Realm, it would be a huge advertisement for the Mysterious Bookstore.

"But then again, what if Cang Lan reaches the Immortal Realm and turns around to attack me?" Ma Feifei suddenly thought of this problem. No one knows just how strong the Immortal Realm is. What if even the Bookstore System can't stop them?

Thinking of this, Ma Feifei couldn't help but run into the system again to find the answer.

"The Bookstore System is invincible. Furthermore, the Book Immortal currently possessed by the host has the strength of the Ninth-Grade Immortal Realm, while ordinary immortals who have just stepped into the Immortal Realm are generally only at the lowest level First-Grade Immortal Realm."
