“l hope the arrangements I made for you will provide a pleasant experience.”
In Linsen Immortal City, Xiong Li opened the itinerary that every sect member was required to read before leaving the sect.
“Let the fledgling spread its wings on the first stop: go to Hehuan Xian City’s Desire Immortal Pavilion and experience their one-stop service.” Xiong Li said with a strange look on his face.
“Why would the sect send me to such a place?” Although he seldom went out, Xiong Li knew what kind of place that was.
Although Xiong Li found it strange, he had to follow the arrangements made by the sect.
Xiong Li arrived in the teleportation center of the Linsen Immortal City. “Where do you want to go?” asked the Teleportation Array Manager.
“Hehuan Xian City.” Xiong Li answered.
“Understood.’
Xiong Li’s answer was met with an extremely ambiguous look, the kind that every man seems to understand.
“A sincere discount of 300,000 spirit stones,” said the Teleportation Array Manager.
Xiong Li handed over 30 top-grade spirit stones to the manager.
“l hope you have a good time.”
The Teleportation Array Manager smiled and activated the teleportation array.
‘Weng~~’
Xiong Li’s body and surroundings changed, and his head felt a bit dizzy. Although it was not his first time using a teleportation array, he had never gotten used to the dizziness.
That dizziness lasted only for a moment.
As soon as Xiong Li stepped out of the teleportation array, he was held by a pair of delicate jade-like hands.
“Where do you want to go, strong fellow?”
The coquettish voice made Xiong Li feel quite uncomfortable.
You can talk, but why do you have to be so cutesy?
Xiong Li frowned and asked, “How do I get to the Desire Immortal Pavilion?”
“Oh, you are going to the Desire Immortal Pavilion, we’re going there too. I can take you there.” The girl carefully looked at Xiong Li.
“Let’s go then.” Xiong Li muttered, as if he already knew what kind of place the Desire Immortal Pavilion was.
“Come with me.’
The charming woman who held Xiong Li’s arm smiled and said.
“You lead the way, and I don’t like being touched.” Xiong Li said with a frown.
“Your slave understands.” The charming girl said in a coquettish voice.
She had seen plenty of men who seemed to be decent on the outside, but were lascivious on the inside. They would always reveal their true nature once they were in the Desire Immortal Pavilion. The charming girl thought with disdain.
Xiong Li followed the girl all the way to an extremely imposing storefront, where numerous beautiful women enticed customers.
The closer they got to the store, the more nervous Xiong Li became. He didn’t know why, but he felt a tremendous test awaiting him ahead.
The women who were tasked with attracting clients to the Desire Immortal Pavilion spotted Xiong Li from afar.
“Sister Lingling found a body refining cultivator. I guess he won’t be enough on his own. Is anyone interested?” said one of the women at the door.
Just as the woman wanted to continue speaking, three dazzling figures passed by.
Before Xiong Li even entered the store, he was entangled by three colorful-clad women.
Xiong Li was about to speak when he was dragged into the Desire Immortal Pavilion by the three women.
At this moment, Xu Fan was watching a live broadcast above the Hundred-Thousand-Li Giant Lake.
“I wonder if Xiong Li can withstand the temptation.” Xu Fan laughed.
“Master, forgive my bluntness, but is your arrangement for disciple’s cultivation experience somewhat inappropriate?” Li Xuandao asked.
“It’s just a massage and an opportunity to see the world, it’s not as serious as you make it sound.” Xu Fan chuckled.
“Today, what brings you to me?” Xu Fan looked at Li Xuandao and asked.
By then, Li Xuandao had already advanced to the Golden Core Late Stage realm, just one step away from reaching the Nascent Soul Stage. “I’ve been cultivating for quite a while; it’s time to take a break and relax.”
“l haven’t thanked Master yet. If it weren’t for the great cultivation environment you provided, I wouldn’t have been able to advance so quickly.” Li Xuandao expressed his gratitude.
“It’s just a small effort. Besides, I improved the cultivation environment for the entire Sect, not just for you,” Xu Fan said nonchalantly.
Although they address each other as master and disciple, their relationship is more like a transaction.
“Still, thank you, Master,” Li Xuandao said sincerely.
“Your cultivation speed is indeed fast; it hasn’t been that long, and you’ve already reached the Golden Core Late Stage.”
“At this rate, you’ll probably ascend to the Great Thousand World in about a thousand years,” Xu Fan said enviously. If the System hadn’t put a limit on his cultivation level, he might already be at the God Transformation Stage by now.
“It’s not as fast as Master thinks. Before ascending to the fairy world, I must solidify the foundation of this body; otherwise, I’ll be stuck at the Quasi-Immortal level for the rest of my life,” Li Xuandao sighed.
“In 2000 years, that’s still quite fast,” Xu Fan said, feeling a bit melancholic as he thought of himself as a God Transformation Stage cultivator in 2000 years. “This cultivation speed is the limit of this lifetime. There’s no other way,” Li Xuandao said regretfully. Even though the difficulty of this lifetime is relatively low among his many reincarnations, his aptitude in this lifetime can only rank in the middle to lower tier among them.
“Since you’re taking a break, why not take a stroll in Immortal City?”
“Pu Tao should have told you. You have a 100,000 Top-grade Spirit Stone quota in the Treasure House,” Xu Fan said.
“Thank you, Master. I know. Just relaxing and enjoying the Sect’s scenery is enough.”
“l just saw Master fishing alone on Hundred-Thousand-Li Giant Lake, so I thought I’d come chat with you,” Li Xuandao said with a smile.
His purpose for coming was not only to relax but also to improve his Master’s goodwill towards him.
After all, it takes skill to latch onto a strong supporter.
Upon hearing this, Xu Fan slowly put away his fishing rod.
He waved his hand and summoned a set of tea table and tea tools, then began to heat the water.
“This is tea grown by the Sect. Give it a try,” Xu Fan said as he brewed the tea.
“Thank you, Master.”
After drinking tea together, Xu Fan looked at Li Xuandao and said, “If you don’t have any questions, we can chat about the matters of the Great Thousand World.’
“Alright, Master. Whatever aspect you want to know, I will tell you truthfully,” Li Xuandao said with a smile.
“What’s the status of Artifact Refiners in the Great Thousand World?” Xu Fan asked curiously.
“An Artifact Refining Master who can refine High-grade Dao Artifacts has a higher status than a Quasi-immortal, about the same as a True Immortal.”
“An Artifact Refining Grandmaster who can refine Immortal Tools can, at the very least, sit on an equal footing with a Golden Immortal,” Li Xuandao said.
“Are Artifact Refining Grandmasters in such high demand in the Immortal World?” Xu Fan asked surprisingly. It didn’t match his expectations.
“So you’re saying that once the Chief of the Heavenly Refinement Sect ascends to the Great Thousand World, their status will be equivalent to a Golden Immortal?”
“That’s right. In the Immortal World, Dao Artifacts are quite valuable, and Immortal Tools are even rarer and harder to obtain for Quasi-Immortals and True Immortals.’
“Master, do you know why the Heavenly Dao pulls Artifact Refining and Alchemy Grandmasters to ascend to the Great Thousand World?” Li Xuandao asked mysteriously.
“Yeah, I’ve always been curious about that,” Xu Fan inquired.
“That’s because the Immortal Sects or major influences in the Great Thousand
World have transactions with our world. Whenever the Heavenly Dao pulls an Artifact Refining Grandmaster from our world, it receives many benefits.” “After all, the Heavenly Dao needs to upgrade too,” Li Xuandao said.
“Oh, so that’s why. So if I refine an Immortal Tool, can I ascend to the Immortal World?” Xu Fan wondered, calculating in his heart whether he could refine an Immortal Tool and follow his disciples to the Immortal World when they ascended.
“Master, if you don’t want to serve those Immortal Sects or major influences, it’s better not to do that,” Li Xuandao, who had already anticipated Xu Fan’s question, advised.
“The Heavenly Dao only pulls you, but it won’t open the passage between the two worlds. If you want to go to the Great Thousand World, you need someone from the Immortal Sect on the other side to receive the Artifact Refining Grandmaster.’
“Then the fate of that Artifact Refining Grandmaster will be controlled by those Immortal Sects and major influences.”
“Of course, the basic courtesy will still be there. They will only lose their freedom for a few thousand years,” Li Xuandao said. He had witnessed this himself. When he had ascended to the True Immortal stage in his third lifetime, he went to the outskirts of the Middle Thousand Worlds and received an Artifact Refining Grandmaster.
“l knew it. There’s no such thing as a free lunch in this world,” Xu Fan sighed.
“It’s best for Master to think like this. With Master’s aptitude that rivals Heaven and Earth, ascending to the Great Thousand World should be an easy task,” Li Xuandao complimented, seizing the opportunity to flatter.
Upon hearing this, Xu Fan’s gaze towards Li Xuandao became more
affectionate..
