From Family Fisherman to Water Virtue True Immortal

Cloud Dream Fairy moved gracefully, draped in a moon-white silk dress, akin to a cloud sewn from the sky, untouched by a speck of dust, yet exuding a lively Dao charm amidst its pure beauty.

She glanced at the Golden Core steward beside her, vaguely recalling him. He was a registered disciple, considered a backbone of the sect.

Unfortunately, as a fellow woman witnessing such coercion for marriage, it truly was distasteful.

"This matter is indeed due to my inadequate supervision. Little friend, have you suffered any grievance? I can offer some compensation."

True Monarch Yun Meng spoke, looking at the Xiao siblings without favoritism towards her sect's cultivator.

"Reporting to the senior, this young girl has endured no grievance. It's merely due to this esteemed sect fellow's constant disturbances, slightly hindering my cultivation practice."

Xiao Ruxuan spoke softly and weakly, without resorting to unreasonable behavior, despite having Nascent Soul cultivators supporting her.

Instead, she gently shifted past the matter, offering both sides an opportunity to step down without much difficulty.

Cloud Dream Fairy observed this, her expression also easing considerably, for it was no trivial matter, considered a scandal for the Wanchuan Sect.

Should great matters be reduced to small ones and small matters be resolved, it would naturally be welcome.

"Since it is so, fellow Daoist, shall we leave this matter be?"

Li Quanqing glanced at the trembling Wanchuan Sect disciples nearby, realizing that the proposed marriage had clearly become a jest.

"As you say, I shall take these disciples back to the sect for proper guidance, ensuring that they will learn their lesson."

True Monarch Yun Meng hinted that there would be no acts of revenge, relieving future worries.

"You handle the matter fairly, coincidentally I wish to visit the royal family of Lai Country, shall we travel together?"

Li Quanqing extended his invitation, forming friendships among Nascent Souls often in such a manner.

Upon hearing this, Cloud Dream Fairy's eyes sparkled, readily agreeing.

Li Quanqing waved his sleeve, mana surged, enfolding the Xiao siblings, descending from the cloud, concealing the scenery.

"This Talisman Master's legacy, I offer it to you, thus resolving the karma between us. Should you break through to Golden Core in the future, you may seek me for subsequent legacy."

Li Quanqing took out a Jade Scroll, bearing the legacy of Third Rank talismans.

For Foundation Establishment cultivators, obtaining a Nascent Soul level Cultivation Hundred Arts, instead seemed like inviting trouble, for their prowess was too weak.

Additionally, he left behind a few Golden Core level Magical Treasures and talismans, all acquired from the relics of True Monarch Xuanming, useless to him.

Xiao Ruxuan bewilderedly accepted, unaware of the specific karma, yet an unprecedented touch of gratitude arose within her heart.

Her gaze upon him shifted.

Li Quanqing naturally disregarded her thoughts, after giving the items, he withdrew, preparing to head to the Imperial Capital Scripture Pavilion.

True Monarch Yun Meng, seeing this, similarly waved her sleeves, mana transformed into a cloud-like aura, enveloping the few sect disciples, leading the way ahead.

They traversed across vast terrains quickly, soon seeing the sight of the imperial capital.

A majestic city slowly unfolded before them, like a mighty beast crouching at the land's edge, streaks of Immortal Light piercing into the sky.

Since arriving at Cuiping County, Li Quanqing invoked a layer of mana, discreetly cloaking his entire being.

Now finding himself not being discerned by True Monarch Yun Meng, he slightly relaxed.

After all, he was not an Immortal Realm native, lacking signs of Immortal Qi circulation within. If someone wielded Nascent Soul Power for meticulous observation, they might discern it.

Fortunately, such an act of prying into others' secrecy seemed provoking and insulting to Nascent Soul True Monarchs.

But faced with Divinity Transformation Venerable's unfathomable might, he dared not risk it, having never witnessed such formidable cultivators' methods.

They crossed multiple layers of Array protection successfully, descended within the royal palace, meeting Lai Country's Nascent Soul forefather, named Xiao Qian.

This was a Supreme Emperor of the royal family, imposing in stature, draped in Nine Dragon Yellow Robe, crowned with Heavenly Crown, sword at the waist. Though aged in appearance, he exuded an unyielding authority, akin to a lion with mane erect.

"Cloud Fairy, who might this fellow Daoist be…"

Lai Country's Supreme Emperor's eyes shifted, astounded to feel a kind of oppression from a Nascent Soul early-stage cultivator.

"I am Li Quanqing, hailing from Beiming Abyss, wandering the mountains and lands, seeking opportunities. Recently I had fortune breaking through Nascent Soul, by chance arriving at your esteemed land…"

"Due to pining for the homeland, I bestowed myself with the Dao title of Beiming True Monarch. You two fellow Daoists may address me freely as you wish."

Li Quanqing actively introduced himself, revealing the alias he had long prepared, sounding credible too.

He opted not to use the name True Monarch Hanhai, perhaps one day needing to ascend from the Lower Realm, involving too much.

"So it's fellow Beiming Daoist, Abyss is so distant from Golden Plain, almost spanning half the Human Clan's territory, the journey must have been quite remarkable."

Xiao Qian displayed a courteous smile, indifferent, knowing this Dao title seemed a mere pretense, suggesting another origin.

"Emperor Xiao, Fellow Li expressed en route, a desire to visit your esteemed country's royal Scripture Pavilion, to comprehend this Cultivation World's customs."

True Monarch Yun Meng timely spoke, politely assisting Li Quanqing.

"Entering the royal Scripture Pavilion…"

Xiao Qian hesitated slightly upon hearing this, for it housed the nation's essence, established for hundreds of thousands of years, with Nascent Souls unending.

"Fellow Xiao, perhaps consider viewing this Jade Scroll."

Li Quanqing was prepared, having long readied compensation—a legacy of a Fourth Rank Talisman Master.

Lai Country's Supreme Emperor, upon touching the Jade Scroll, discerning its contents, subtly changed in expression, agreeing to the transaction.

"Thank you."

After Li Quanqing saluted, he followed a servant to the royal Scripture Pavilion, situated on an island amidst a lake, water surrounded on all sides, concealing numerous potent presences.

"Reporting to True Monarch, the Supreme Emperor decrees that apart from the top three levels, you may freely traverse all other floors."

Li Quanqing nodded in acknowledgment.

The deepest part of the pavilion naturally stored the royal family's heritage cultivation techniques, strong Divine Skills and Dharma, certainly not for outsiders to see.

He stepped inside the pavilion, though externally appearing unimposing, internally it was a marvel, expanded more than tenfold.

Li Quanqing was in no rush, instead he thumbed through the records regarding the culture and history of the Golden Ancient Plain, finding many interesting things.

"Golden Holy Tree, sacred relic left by Immortal of Longevity, represents Life Dao, its sap can awaken the vitality of all wood…"

Li Quanqing's Divine Sense briefly paused, recalling the Five-Colored Treasure Lotus Seed languishing in his possession.

If he could obtain Golden Tree Juice, might it replenish the depleted Life Origin, sprouting anew?

After all, it was an Immortal Elixir, perhaps harboring unimaginable power.

"Sadly, this sap is monopolized by the Golden Family, outsiders rarely obtain it."

Not only the Five-Colored Treasure Lotus, but also the Ancient Blood Centipede could utilize the Golden Family's treasures to awaken, necessitating thorough planning.

Li Quanqing continued reading, soon discovering another intriguing matter.

"Every few thousand years, the Golden Ancient Plain encounters a calamity, divine weapons rain down, annihilating life, possibly related to Immortal's demise?"

After reading, Li Quanqing memorialized the matter in his heart.

After all, anything associated with the word "Immortal" inherently becomes extraordinary, sparking boundless imagination.

Li Quanqing stayed at the pavilion for several days, having perused all available ancient books and Jade Scrolls.

Ultimately, he succeeded in finding what he sought in a worn Jade Scroll.

The mystery of how Lower Realm cultivators double their lifespan upon ascension!
