People Fear Fame as Pigs Fear Growing Fat (That's All for Today)

Medicine King Mountain Range, Welcome Guest Peak.

At the summit was a vast Bluestone Square, where numerous blue jade tables were set up, and tens of thousands of cultivators gathered together.

Shen Long was seated relatively close to the front, while Nascent Soul Cultivator such as Chu Buyu, Ye Hongyao, Zhou Yuliang, and Shangguan Yulong Shen Long sat nearby, sipping tea and chatting.

Shen Long helped Chu Buyu refine a batch of Heaven Soul Pill and also got to know some Nascent Soul Cultivator.

"Master Lu has arrived."

Tong Yun shouted loudly.

A rainbow bridge suddenly appeared, one end on the Main Platform and the other on a high peak.

Lu Yun appeared on the Rainbow Bridge and walked towards this location.

Not long after, Lu Yun appeared on the Main Platform.

Shen Long and the others stood up and said in unison, "Greetings, Senior Lu."

Mo Wuya, Huang Ziqi, and Fairy Xuanbing stood up and nodded slightly.

Lu Yun sat down and gestured for the other cultivators to sit down as well.

Representatives of the guests presented their congratulatory gifts. Mo Wuya and the other two each presented a Spirit Treasure and five two-thousand-year-old spirit medicine, as if they had planned it in advance.

Shen Long gave us twenty thousand -Millennial Spirit Herb and some refining materials, which was quite generous.

Lu Yun accepted the congratulatory gift and raised her glass. "I'd like to propose a toast to everyone."

After saying this, she finished her drink, and Shen Long and the others raised their glasses and drank them down in one gulp.

Shen Long and the others clinked glasses, chatting and laughing.

Two hours later, the banquet ended, and most of the guests left one after another.

"Fellow Daoist Shen, it's a rare treat to visit our Medicine King Valley, please stay a while longer!"

Ye Hongyao said warmly.

"Then I'll take my leave, Fairy Ye."

Shen Long agreed.

"Don't bother me, come on, I'll arrange a place for you to stay."

Ye Hongyao smiled radiantly and personally arranged accommodations for Shen Long.

In a Quiet Manor, Lu Yun, Mo Wuya, Huang Ziqi, and Fairy Xuanbing gathered in a Cyan Stone Pavilion, enjoying tea and chatting.

"We won't fight the Heaven Origin Race without offering any real benefits."

Lu Yun said.

"Yes! Fellow Daoist Xu said he would go back and discuss it with the others, but we don't know what price they will ask for."

Mo Wuya's face was full of curiosity.

"I'd be willing to offer a set of defensive Spirit Treasure and two bottles of fifth-tier pills to enhance my Law Power."

Huang Ziqi said.

Ye Sen walked in, his expression grave.

His lips moved slightly, and Lu Yun's expression changed.

"Fellow Daoist Mo, our Medicine King Valley intends to participate in this great battle."

Lu Yun said.

"What? Madam Lu, what benefits did Fellow Daoist Xu offer?"

Mo Wuya asked in confusion.

"Our backer in the Lingxu Realm contacted us using a communication array, asking us to help the Big Dipper Pavilion deal with the Heaven Origin Race."

Lu Yun said.

She personally didn't want to participate in the Realm War, but now that her backer had spoken, Lu Yun had no right to refuse, unless she ascended to the Lingxu Realm in the future and Rogue Cultivator.

Mo Wuya took out a Dharma Disk that shimmered with blue light, cast a spell on it, and his expression changed.

"Our Ten Thousand Swords Sect's backer in the Lingxu Realm has also given orders that we must cooperate with the Big Dipper Pavilion to eliminate the Heaven Origin Race."

Mo Wuya frowned and said.

In this way, they had no choice but to obey.

Huang Ziqi and Fairy Xuanbing exchanged bewildered glances. They never expected that the Big Dipper Pavilion would wield such power, with the Medicine King Valley and the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, their backers, both speaking out.

Ye Sen took out a golden Dharma Disk, cast a spell, and said in surprise, "Master Lu, people from Heaven Beast Island and the Nether Corpse Sect have come to tell you something important."

"It seems they also received orders. The Big Dipper Pavilion has considerable power."

Lu Yun frowned and said, "Please invite them over!"

"Yes, Aunt Lu."

Ye Sen agreed, cast a spell on the Golden Dharma Disk, and then gestured.

······

In the Southern Border Cultivation World, Thousand Poisons Sect.

In the Thousand Poisons Hall, a portly old man in a green robe sat on the main seat, his gaze solemn.

Du Xiao was reporting to the old man in green robes, looking nervous.

"A terrible omen! It seems many cultivators will die this time dealing with the Heaven Origin Race. But it's an order from above, we can't disobey it. Let's carry it out! First, recruit a group of experts to be the first wave to charge in."

The old man in the green robe spoke slowly.

Du Sheng, early stage of the Spirit Transformation.

"Yes, Uncle-Master Du."

Du Xiao agreed and left to carry out the order.

······

In the East Hua Cultivation World, at the Medicine King Mountain Range.

In a Quiet Manor, Shen Long, Jin Bao, Ye Hongyao, and a refined-looking scholar in a blue robe sat around Zhang Qing tea table, sipping tea and chatting.

"Fellow Daoist Qin, even you, the deputy sect leader, don't recognize the origin of this beast?"

Shen Long frowned and said.

"I truly do not know them, and there is no reason for me to turn away business that has come to my door."

"That's what the scholar in the blue robe said."

Qin Bin, deputy head of the Listen Wind Pavilion.

"Fellow Daoist Shen, perhaps the information is incorrect. It's just a Strange Beast; don't worry about it."

Ye Hongyao comforted her.

"That ancient book says that this Strange Beast's Divine Ability humans, but it seems to be a fabrication."

Shen Long sighed.

He used the guise of searching for Strange Beast Strange Beast to find the one Du Xiao had divined, but he found nothing.

No one doubted it, after all, Shen Long was Spirit Controller.

"That's not surprising. Ancient records may not be true, and errors in the transmission of information are quite normal."

Jin Bao disagreed.

"That makes sense, but this beast might not be nonexistent. Perhaps it's just not in the Gan Yang Realm, but in another realm, or perhaps not in a lower realm."

Qin Bin said.

Shen Long nodded and said, "Maybe!"

Ye Hongyao took out Dharma Disk that shimmered with blue light, cast a spell on it, and a look of surprise appeared in her eyes.

"Fellow Daoist Shen, Aunt Lu wants to see you. Please come with me."

Ye Hongyao said.

Shen Long was taken aback at first, then nodded in agreement and followed Ye Hongyao to the entrance of a magnificent palace.

The palace plaque bears the three large golden characters "Medicine King Hall," and the main gate is wide open.

"Nephew Ye, please bring Little Friend Shen in!"

Lu Yun's voice rang out.

Ye Hongyao responded and led Shen Long inside.

Lu Yun sat in the main seat, her expression solemn.

Shen Long was about to bow when Lu Yun stopped him.

"Let's skip the formalities, Little Friend Shen. I called you here to tell you that we plan to launch an expedition against the Heaven Origin Realm Heaven Origin Realm to avenge the great grudge of their invasion years ago, and you have been chosen."

Lu Yun said.

Shen Long was stunned; disaster had struck out of nowhere.

"Senior Lu, why choose a junior?"

Shen Long asked, puzzled.

"Your strength is exceptional, so you are the most suitable to go on the expedition. Besides you, Medicine King Valley, Ten Thousand Swords Sect, and Nether Corpse Sect will all send their experts to the expedition. You are in the first echelon, so you don't need to return to the Spirit Control Sect. Just go on the expedition with the others!"

Lu Yun spoke slowly, then, as if remembering something, continued, "This great battle is the will of most forces in the Gan Yang Realm. Those who disobey will be killed without mercy."

"Yes, I understand."

Shen Long agreed.

"Master Lu, with so many experts, why is Fellow Daoist Shen in the first tier?"

Ye Hongyao asked in confusion.

"He's powerful, don't worry. There's a Spirit Transformation cultivator leading the team. Since you're also going to participate, I won't go."

Lu Yun explained.

She had only recently entered the Spirit Transmutation Realm and did not need to go to the Heaven Origin Realm. In return, she would have to send more Nascent Soul Cultivator to the Heaven Origin Realm.

Mo Wuya led the team personally, so there was no need to bring so many Nascent Soul Cultivator.

"Little Friend Shen, your Spirit Control Sect used to obey the orders of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, and it still does. I'm just informing you on behalf of Fellow Daoist Mo. This is also an fortuitous opportunity for you. If you make a great contribution, obtaining the elixirs and miraculous medicines to break through to the Spirit Transmutation Realm won't be a problem."

Lu Yun explained.

"Yes, I will do my best."

Shen Long agreed, and now it would be difficult for him to run away.

Anyway, I have my own feet. Once I get to the Heaven Origin Realm, I'll act according to the situation.

"Alright, you can go back and prepare! Don't tell anyone else about this; it's top secret."

Lu Yun gave the instructions.

Shen Long and Ye Hongyao agreed and left.
