"Young Master, don't panic. Our Immortal Emperor's Palace can certainly dispatch Immortal Venerable level experts, but we cannot dispatch too many. The resources involved will have to be shared by you, Young Master," the black-robed elder explained.
"Uh, well..."
Lin Yu hesitated for a moment before slowly saying, "I can consider this matter."
"Haha, since Young Master Lin Yu is willing to consider it, that's wonderful! Our Immortal Emperor's Mansion will do everything in our power to cooperate with you." The black-robed elder laughed heartily.
Immediately, the old man in black robes turned and waved to the guards, saying, "You may all leave. This matter is none of your concern."
"Yes, Your Majesty, I obey!"
Upon hearing this, the guards clasped their hands in response and then withdrew from the courtyard, leaving only the old man in black robes and Lin Yu.
Lin Yu looked at the black-robed elder and smiled, "I wonder how long it will take for the message to reach my immortal island, senior?"
"Hehe, I can't be sure about that either, since my Immortal Island isn't on the Immortal Emperor Star, so I can't confirm the exact time." The black-robed elder gave an awkward smile, then continued, "However, Young Master Lin Yu can rest assured, as long as Lin Yu 're willing to help the Immortal Emperor's Palace, I will naturally send the message to the Immortal Island as soon as possible."
"Alright, since that's the case, then I'll wait for your news, Senior!" Lin Yu said, taking out several Nine-Turn Golden Pills from his storage ring. "Senior, these are forty Nine-Turn Golden Pills that I refined. I hope you can take good care of the fairies on the Immortal Island!"
As soon as Lin Yu finished speaking, the black-robed elder's face lit up with joy, and he quickly reached out to take the Nine-Turn Golden Pill from Lin Yu's hand.
"This... this is unacceptable! These pills are far too valuable; I dare not accept them!" the black-robed elder hurriedly declined.
Seeing the black-robed elder's demeanor, Lin Yu shook his head and said, "Senior, we're practically friends. Talking about money between friends is too formal. This little bit of pills isn't enough for me to give you. Besides, resources are scarce in our Immortal Realm, so please accept these pills, Senior!"
Upon hearing this, the old man in black robes nodded, realizing that Lin Yu was telling the truth.
"Hehe, thank you very much then!" The black-robed elder nodded, then put away the Nine-Turn Golden Pill.
"By the way, I wonder what you need me to do, senior?"
The old man in black robes smiled slightly and said, "Young Master, it's like this. The situation in the Immortal Realm is tense right now. The Immortal Emperor Continent is already engulfed in war. Therefore, I plan to dispatch 20,000 immortal soldiers to the Immortal Emperor Continent to assist the Immortal Emperor Army in fighting against the demons. Our Immortal Emperor's Palace Immortal Venerable will also select a group from these 20,000 soldiers to go to the Immortal Emperor Continent to assist the Immortal Emperor Army in battle!"
The old man in black robes paused for a moment, then added, "If you have any needs, young master, please don't hesitate to give the order. I will do my utmost to fulfill them!"
"Hmm!" Lin Yu smiled slightly and said, "I'll trouble you with this matter, senior. I'm currently facing some difficulties and need a group of powerful individuals to help me find the Nine Yang Divine Cauldron. I would appreciate it if you could send as many experts as possible to assist me."
"The Nine Yang Divine Cauldron?" The black-robed elder's eyes lit up; he certainly knew what the Nine Yang Divine Cauldron was.
In the Immortal Realm, although there are many top experts, and even some Saint Kings, most of these top experts are hidden in the immortal caves deep in the valleys and rarely appear. Therefore, many people are completely unaware of the existence of the Nine Yang Divine Cauldron, and even if some people know about it, no one can truly control it.
Moreover, according to legend, the Nine Yang Divine Cauldron was an unparalleled divine treasure in the Immortal Realm. However, it encountered misfortune and disappeared in the Immortal Emperor Continent. It was only found now, and some people even suspect that the divine treasure had already been refined by someone.
"Hehe, since that's the case, Young Master Lin Yu, leave this matter to me. I guarantee I'll complete the mission!" The black-robed elder patted his chest and said confidently.
Lin Yu smiled and nodded, saying, "Alright, then I'll have to trouble you, senior."
"Of course, of course," the old man in black robes replied repeatedly.
After chatting for a while, the old man in black robes took his leave.
With the black-robed elder gone, only Lin Yu Lin Yu remained in the courtyard. He sat cross-legged and began his secluded cultivation to recover from his injuries. After all, the battle with the black-robed elder had inflicted considerable damage on Lin Yu. Although Lin Yu physical body had reached the Immortal Venerable stage after the previous battle, this level of strength was far from sufficient to withstand powerful enemies at the Immortal Lord level, especially in the Immortal Realm where such powerful figures were even stronger. Therefore, Lin Yu's primary goal now was to improve his strength. Only when he was strong enough could Lin Yu contend with these people.
After the old man in black robes left, three more figures appeared in Lin Yu's room. They were none other than Immortal Venerable Zixiao and others, who were currently gathered in Lin Yu's room.
"Immortal Venerable Zixiao, I need your help!" Lin Yu looked at Immortal Venerable Zixiao before him and said with a faint smile.
"Oh? Please speak freely, young master," Immortal Venerable Zixiao replied respectfully.
"I need a group of Immortal Emperor level experts, can you provide that?" Lin Yu inquired.
"Young Master, are you referring to... the Celestial King?" Immortal Venerable Zixiao was taken aback.
"That's right, a Celestial King level expert, preferably one who can cultivate a Nascent Soul!" Lin Yu said solemnly.
"Uh, this... I'm afraid it'll be a bit difficult," said Immortal Venerable Zixiao after a moment's hesitation.
"Hmm?"
Hearing this, Lin Yu was slightly taken aback, looking at Zixiao Immortal Venerable with surprise, "What... is there a problem?"
"It's not that it's impossible, but as you should know, young master, the Immortal Venerable level is already the limit in the Immortal Realm. Forcibly increasing their strength would easily trigger a backlash. Therefore, we cannot force this."
Upon hearing Zixiao Immortal Venerable's words, Lin Yu frowned.
Lin Yu's current strength is already at the peak of the Immortal Lord realm, only half a step away from the early stage of the Immortal Venerable realm. For cultivators, this half step is simply an insurmountable chasm, and unless they obtain some heaven-defying rare treasure, it is impossible to cross.
However, Lin Yu is currently facing a difficulty because he lacks cultivators around Lin Yu. If he doesn't find a way to obtain their help, he may find it hard to break through to the Immortal Venerable level. And it's really not advisable for him to take any risks right now.
Thinking of this, Lin Yu looked at Immortal Venerable Zixiao and asked with a smile, "I wonder, Immortal Venerable Zixiao, which sect in the Immortal Realm has a disciple who would be suitable?"
