Misty Rain Tower.

It's a fairly well-known entertainment venue in Snowfield City, combining eating, drinking, and entertainment—the legitimate kind, of course.

Although it's called a building, it actually occupies a huge area and contains a variety of architectural styles. After all, the visitors are all kinds of people, some of whom are not even human. If they didn't reveal their true forms, you wouldn't know what species they are.

As Ye Muxuan walked over slowly, beautiful waiters who were already waiting there came forward to greet him warmly. Ye Muxuan glanced at them and saw that these waiters were all handsome and of indistinguishable gender, and each of them was True God Realm cultivator.

Two waiters stepped forward, bowed, and said in sweet, gentle voices, "It is an honor for our Misty Rain Tower to have Your Excellency here. Please!"

"This is my first time here, please arrange a quiet place," Ye Muxuan said casually, looking at the two beautiful waitresses.

The True God, acting as a greeter—is really nothing special.

In the Origin Continent, as long as one doesn't force their way through the Divine Power Path, almost everyone becomes True God upon reaching adulthood, resulting in an overwhelming number of True God. Even in a powerful organization like the Misty Rain Tower, the role of greeter is not one that an ordinary True God can hold.

"Your Excellency, please come inside." Two greeters, one on each side, accompanied Ye Muxuan as they flew deeper into the Misty Rain Tower. "We have prepared the esteemed Orchid Moon Pavilion for Your Excellency."

As they flew along, Ye Muxuan could clearly sense various arrays. Although they were rather rudimentary, they were sufficient as barriers between independent spaces. Moreover, these independent spaces were not completely isolated from the main structure, and occasionally, sounds of string and wind instruments would leak out.

As a famous entertainment venue in Snowfield City, Misty Rain Tower naturally offers a variety of song and dance performances, along with places to eat, drink, and have fun, occupying a vast space. Two greeters led Ye Muxuan as they flew deeper into Misty Rain Tower, passing through several independent spaces of palaces and pavilions. In Ye Muxuan's senses, there were more than ten Void True God playing in those palaces and pavilions, and he could even occasionally smell the tempting aroma of food and wine.

"Your Excellency, we have arrived at the Orchid Moon Pavilion." After flying for a while, the two greeters stopped in front of a moon-white pavilion, which was already dimly lit inside, and there were even faint sounds of music coming from it.

The Eternal True God are already the true high-ranking figures in Snowfield City. Even the city lord and the legion commanders are merely Eternal True God. The major powers, families, and organizations in the city are also now led by Eternal True God. They are the "heavens" of Snowfield City.

Even though the Misty Rain Tower enjoys a considerable reputation in Snowfield City, it is still quite rare for it to host an Eternal True God, especially—

The Nightfall Divine Lord, an unfamiliar Eternal True God, is a powerful figure who has not shown any affiliation with any particular faction.

Since Ye Muxuan left the cave, his whereabouts have been observed by those who are interested. Every step he takes, every street he passes through, every shop he lingers in, every item he glances at, and so on, has been noticed by these people.

They may not have any ill intentions, but it's never a bad thing to know more about the situation. At least then, they won't clash with an Eternal True God over some trivial matter.

The leaders of various powerful families and organizations are not primarily concerned with their strength; they also possess powerful figures capable of maintaining order within their organizations. However, their foresight is paramount. They must have a clear understanding of who can be offended and who should absolutely not be provoked.

The Origin Continent is teeming with powerful individuals; who knows when or where a new one might emerge? If your judgment is flawed, you might not even know when you've died.

The doors of the Orchid Moon Pavilion opened, and gentle, elegant music drifted out from somewhere, instantly refreshing the minds of those who heard it.

Ye Muxuan slowly entered, and the two greeters stood at the door with their hands at their sides.

"It is an honor for our Misty Rain Tower to have Your Excellency grace us with your presence." A female Void True God dressed in an emerald green dress strolled forward. A delicate emerald green flower adorned her head, and her aura was fresh and natural. Her mere act of approaching gave one the feeling of being surrounded by a sea of flowers.

Ye Muxuan could tell at a glance that this Void True God was not a flesh-and-blood being, nor was she human. Her true form was a Plant Lifeform, and the delicate pink-blue flower on her head was her true form.

Ye Muxuan sat down in the seat at the head of the table, and two beautiful servants entered from the side door behind him and stood by his side.

The exquisite stone table in front of him was already laid out with various foods and wines. He casually picked up a crystal-clear, greenish-blue fruit and popped it into his mouth, saying, "Bring out whatever you're good at."

Don't let me down.

If it were just about food and wine, there would be plenty of those shops outside, some even offering better service. That wouldn't do justice to the prestigious name of Misty Rain Tower.

"The Orchid Dance of the Misty Rain Tower, please, Your Excellency, appreciate it." The female Void True God in the turquoise dress placed her hands on her waist and bowed gracefully.

Ye Muxuan rested his elbows on the stone table, his palms supporting his cheeks, waiting quietly. The servants beside him stepped forward, knelt down obediently, poured wine, and served him food and drink.

A line of True God, each with the same pink and blue flowers on their heads, filed in through the side door, forming two pairs of twenty-four in total. Judging from their appearance, they were all her people. Twelve of the True God, dressed in pink skirts, carried various strange objects in their hands, while the other twelve, all dressed in pink and blue skirts, gracefully surrounded the woman in the emerald green skirt.

Ye Muxuan picked a crystal-clear fruit, casually tossed it into his mouth, took a bite, and savored its sweet juice.

This fruit, which would be of great benefit to the cultivation of most True God, is worth three Chaos Crystal per fruit, but in the hands of Eternal True God like them, it is nothing more than a snack.

Seeing that he liked fruit, another servant knelt down beside him, picked some fruit, peeled and pitted it, and presented it to Ye Muxuan to serve him. All he had to do was open his mouth.

As the objects held by the twelve True God in pink dresses emitted melodious and winding sounds, the twelve True God and one Void True God waved their sleeves and danced gracefully to the music.

At the same time, a hazy, moon-white light enveloped the entire hall, and wisps of emerald green mist also permeated the hall.

"That's interesting."

When the strange artifacts in the hands of the twelve True God began to play, Ye Muxuan knew that these were musical instruments unique to their race. They must have been illusions created by combining the instruments with the talents of their race.

While the illusion created by twelve True God working together would be enough to affect those Void True God, it would be far from sufficient for an Eternal True God.

That's why there were twelve musicians performing, twelve True God accompanying the dance, and a Void True God as the main vocal and dance performer.

The music and dance, centered around a Void True God, possessed a power sufficient to influence the Eternal True God.

"It's a pity it's a bit weak."

This level of illusion is comparable to the willpower of those who have just entered the realm of Eternal True God. However, for Ye Muxuan, whose willpower has long reached the Eternal True God Limit, unless he releases all his defenses, it is nothing more than watching a musical dance.

Of course, if they were to completely abandon their defenses, and their illusions were to affect the Flat Cylindrical Object in their consciousness, they would likely be instantly killed.

He still cannot fully control the Flat Cylindrical Object in his consciousness.

However, since passing through the Reincarnation and entering the Origin Continent, that Flat Cylindrical Object has quietly fallen silent, without making any move. I wonder if it's brewing some kind of big move.

"The Nightfall Divine Lord has entered the Misty Rain Tower." Inside the City Lord Mansion —Cave Two— Xuelite looked at the intelligence report before her, then turned her head, her pale, lifeless eyes gazing towards the Misty Rain Tower before withdrawing her gaze. "We can continue—"

Keep an eye on him, stay in touch, but don't provoke him.

"Yes, Lord City Lord!" Before him, a figure suddenly blurred and vanished silently like a snowflake.

"The Nightfall Divine Lord has gone to the Misty Rain Tower, which is a good opportunity to make contact with him." Inside the Chaos Armor No. 18 cave, a burly man with blood-red skin and two dark golden horns on his forehead stared at the attendant in front of him. His dark golden eyes were like two cages, and a chilling aura permeated them, making his whole aura strange and dark.

"The Lord of Misty Rain Tower will likely receive Nightfall Divine Lord. Perfect, let's meet him together."

"A newly Eternal True God? He must lack cultivation resources. I wonder if it's possible to win him over." Inside a shop, a gaunt old man stared at the Misty Rain Misty Rain Tower from afar. After hesitating for a long time, he finally got up and stepped into the Misty Rain Tower.

Although Snowfield City is a large city, the appearance of an unfamiliar Eternal True God still attracted the attention of the current powerful figures in Snowfield City. The most crucial issue is that the Dark Hall of the Yanfeng Hall has far too little information about this Nightfall Divine Lord.

It's not that no one suspects that the Nightfall Divine Lord Reincarnation to the Origin Continent from the Universe Ocean, but his strength is currently somewhat excessive. Generally speaking, those powerful beings who Reincarnation to the Origin Continent from the Cosmic Sea are basically Void True God. Even if they have reached the Eternal Level, they still need to undergo some trials and tribulations, rather than appearing as Eternal from the start.

Most of the stronger individuals among them were more inclined to believe that these were elites trained by a certain Sect, now officially entering the continent for training.

In that case, it would be worthwhile to win him over.

To reiterate, before fully understanding the background of the Nightfall Divine Lord, the leaders of these organizations and forces will not rashly provoke a strange Eternal True God.

Meanwhile, Ye Muxuan, who was enjoying the dance and music in the Orchid Moon Pavilion, was completely unaware of all this. Two servants standing beside him obediently presented him with exquisite fruits, peeling and pitting them as needed, and poured him fine wine, making him feel completely comfortable.

These attendants were all from the Orchid Moon Pavilion, and also members of the clan of this Void True God.

After a long while, the twelve musicians' music faded away, and as the song and dance ended, the twenty-four True God quietly withdrew.

"I wonder if Lu Lan's Orchid Dance will be pleasing to Your Excellency?" The Void True God in the emerald green dress bowed gracefully. The woman who called herself "Lu Lan" had an even more beautiful pink and blue flower on her head, the petals trembling slightly as she swayed, looking fresh and dewy.

"The singing and dancing were good, but the illusions were a bit lacking." Ye Muxuan raised his eyes and commented, "It's okay to listen to it occasionally to relax."

For an Eternal True God, the illusionary dances and songs of the Void True God are merely a way to relax during breaks from cultivation. As for using illusions to temper one's will? The Three Lives Scroll left by the King of Wu contains secret techniques specifically for tempering one's will, but given Ye Muxuan's current limit of Eternal True God willpower, at least an Eternal True God illusionist would have to personally intervene.

Within the entire Misty Rain Tower, only the personal intervention of the Misty Rain Tower Master offers any hope.

"Thank you for your appreciation, Your Excellency." Lu Lan bowed gracefully, as if Ye Muxuan's evaluation was already very high for her.

At this moment, perhaps because the music in the hall had stopped, the two greeters standing at the door entered and whispered, "Your Excellency, the host requests that Your Excellency move to the Rain Fragrance Pavilion."

"Who wants to see me?" Seated, Ye Muxuan lowered his eyes, his vertical eye between his brows closed, yet giving the two attendants the feeling that it might open at any moment. "Let him come here himself."

He had only come to the Misty Rain Tower on a whim to relax and had no intention of getting involved with anyone. Before he was strong enough to protect himself, he didn't want to get involved in the battles between the major powers of the Origin Continent. Even a small wave from the conflict between those powers with God King Level beings would be too much for him, an Eternal True God, to withstand.

It's alright now; there aren't many life forms within the Miniature Universe. But if this Reincarnation Era ends, a large number of Human Race will be living within it. If something unexpected happens, the entire Miniature Universe be wiped out!

Therefore, one must be extremely careful in everything one does on the Origin Continent.

Ah?

The two attendants looked up in surprise, then quickly realized what was happening, bowed their heads respectfully, and said, "Yes."

The pink and blue flower atop Lu Lan's head swayed, its bud seemingly "staring" at Ye Muxuan. When Ye Muxuan looked up, she quickly lowered her head and said, "It has been a long time since the host personally received any guests."

"She doesn't have to come." Ye Muxuan lowered his eyes. The kneeling servant picked up a wine cup. The amber wine was clear and fragrant.

The Lord of Misty Rain Tower is Illusionist at the Eternal True God Level. Only Eternal True God of the same level and some Void True God with extremely profound backgrounds are qualified to have her personally receive them.

Such individuals represent the highest echelons of Snowfield City; they wouldn't just spend their leisure time in the Misty Rain Tower.

Within Snowfield City, there are numerous entertainment venues, but Misty Rain Tower lacks a strong backing, so it cannot retain many customers.

According to the idea of Misty Rain Tower Master, when Nightfall Divine Lord comes, she will first take him to the Orchid Moon Pavilion to enjoy the song and dance. During this time, the leaders of the organizations and forces that are interested in Nightfall Divine Lord will come to the Misty Rain Tower. She will then take the lead in facilitating this gathering.

The Misty Rain Tower is an entertainment venue, but it's not just about entertainment. How many Cosmic Sand can it earn by simply having customers listen to songs and watch dances?

Who doesn't have a bunch of True God Void True God under their command, eagerly waiting to earn cultivation resources? Organizing gatherings and providing a platform for communication among various forces, and obtaining information fees from them, with those Eternal True God giving them some rewards when they're in a good mood, is much more profitable than simply showing off singing and dancing.

For ordinary True God or even Void True God without any special skills, acquiring cultivation resources on the Origin Continent is extremely difficult.

If one could gain the approval of those Eternal True God, their influence in Snowfield City would be immense. And if they could receive the protection of a particular Eternal True God at a crucial moment, they would truly have struck gold.
