Cultivation: From Servant to Revered Immortal

Chapter 809: Chapter 105: Could Zhou Xun Really Become a Pavilion Master? (2)

Shan Xionghai explained.

Upon hearing the words ’Thunder Night Sect,’ Zhou Xun felt a strange sensation in his heart,

He naturally knew the reason for the sect’s disappearance,

”What about the sect’s ruins?” Where are they located?

The entire Great Jin is divided into ten regions, comprising the Nine Provinces and another area.

For instance, the place they are currently in is Qingzhou, where the sub-sect of Taixu Temple is located, while Shan Xionghai’s Prajna Temple is in Yangzhou,

Of course, this is the main base,

As for sub-sects, they have already penetrated each county, establishing special mountain gates for recruiting disciples,

In this way, they can support a Divinity Transformation Sect.

”The Thunder Night Sect ruins are said to be in Youuzhou, but now they are in disrepair, even the Spirit Vein has degraded to a mere Tier One level,”

”The former prosperity of Thunder Night Sect has long disappeared!”

Shan Xionghai sighed deeply,

”Oh right, I need to return to the sect soon, do you want to come along with me?”

”Since I’ve already arrived in Great Jin, and with the map you’ve given me, I can manage on my own!” Zhou Xun said with a slight smile.

”Alright then, I will be off!” Shan Xionghai nodded, and then the two parted ways after leaving Taixu Temple.

...

The nearest Immortal City to Taixu Temple is Wangjiang Immortal City,

This place is also the seat of Wangjiang Prefecture, and its Pavilion Master is True Monarch Wenren, who has Middle-Stage Nascent Soul cultivation,

The Teleportation Array in this city can directly connect with the State City,

And this is one aspect of Great Jin’s teleportation system,

Each prefecture’s Teleportation Array is connected to the State City, while every State City is also linked to the Imperial City,

Under this three-tier system, one can go to any place in Great Jin with just two teleportations at most,

And this forms the foundation of Great Jin’s rule over the entire Dynasty.

Now that Zhou Xun has arrived in Great Jin, he naturally wants to visit the most prosperous Cultivation Land, Jinyang Immortal City.

A month later, Zhou Xun arrived at Wangjiang Immortal City,

This city is quite large, comparable with Central Continent’s Luoyuan and Sea Suppression Immortal Cities,

It’s important to note that this is merely a Prefecture City,

There are over two hundred such Immortal Cities in the entire Great Jin.

Reaching the State City, Jiyang Immortal City, Zhou Xun didn’t even leave the city before directly teleporting to the Imperial City, Jinyang Immortal City.

This place is also where the Great Jin Royal Family is located, gathering the essence of Great Jin.

Stepping off the Teleportation Array,

At the entrance of the passageway, he was about to enter when a white-robed young man stopped him,

”Is this senior visiting Jinyang Immortal City for the first time? You need to apply for an Identity Token to enter!”

”Yes, it is my first time here!”

”Please follow the right passage!” The young man pointed to another entrance,

Zhou Xun nodded and made his way inside,

Soon, he arrived at a large hall,

The hall was bustling with people coming and going, the ceiling was extremely high, with countless Spirit Pearls embedded in it, emitting a gentle light and illuminating the hall as brightly as daylight.

These Spirit Pearls not only provided illumination but also contained rich Spiritual Qi, seeping down in strands, making the air inside the hall fresh and lively.

The surrounding walls were made of a special type of jade, carved with intricate frescoes depicting legendary tales from various eras of Great Jin.

Ahead, there were more than twenty queues, all lined up for processing Identity Tokens.

”Is senior here to apply for an Identity Token?” At this moment, a young man in a white Magical Treasure robe, with Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivation, approached.

”Please follow me!”

He then accompanied Zhou Xun to a nearby room, where an elderly man with graying hair was sitting,

As soon as Zhou Xun entered, the old man stood up and bowed respectfully,

”Junior Yu Fengnian greets senior!”

Zhou Xun nodded slightly in return: ”No need for formalities, I am here to apply for an Identity Token to enter Jinyang Immortal City.”

The old man Yu Fengnian smiled and said: ”Senior, please be patient. To process the Identity Token, we need to register some information. Could senior please inject some Qi into this ring?”

Saying so, he took out a golden ring and handed it over!

Looking at the ring, Zhou Xun nodded slightly,

It seems that Jinyang Immortal City is keeping up with the times. This ring indeed seems more convenient than the rectangular token!

Zhou Xun took the ring and slowly infused it with his Mana,

”Is that all?”

”That’s all!” The old man nodded, and then said:

”By the way, I don’t know if you, senior, have joined any faction. If not, the Great Jin Royal Family is eager to recruit talents, and the conditions are extremely favorable....”

”No need!” Zhou Xun shook his head,

”I spoke out of turn,” the old man immediately apologized upon hearing this, and then personally escorted Zhou Xun to the hall of the Teleportation Hall.

Zhou Xun didn’t linger long and walked straight out of the Teleportation Hall,

Outside was a sizable square, with a ten-person-wide street stretching across in the distance, flanked by various buildings,

extremely magnificent,

each with its own style, some resembling treasure swords piercing the clouds, others like blooming lotus flowers, emitting a gentle glow.

What was astonishing was that there were quite a few lights flying back and forth in the sky, where cultivators were flying with artifacts.

The first Immortal City of Great Jin actually had no flight restrictions!

However, this made it convenient for him. Just as he was about to fly, a clear voice came:

”Please wait, senior!”

At this moment, a twelve or thirteen-year-old boy squeezed out from an alley beside the street, with only Second Layer Qi Refining cultivation.

”What’s the matter?” Zhou Xun looked at him expressionlessly.

”Young Lin Fei, paying respects to senior,”

The boy ran up to Zhou Xun respectfully and earnestly performed a deep bow.

His eyes were constantly darting, clearly a quick-witted person.

”Senior, you look like you’re new to Jinyang Immortal City and must be unfamiliar with its roads and circumstances. I’m a native resident of this city and know it inside out,”

”If senior needs to go somewhere or handle something, having me guide you will surely save a lot of trouble,”

”And junior only requires two Spirit Stones!”

Finishing his words, the boy stood nervously by the side, fearing Zhou Xun wouldn’t agree.

”Alright, if you satisfy me, I’ll give you ten Spirit Stones. If not, there won’t be even one!” Zhou Xun stared at him, smiling slightly.

”Rest assured, senior, I’ve guided several seniors before, and they all said I did a good job!”

The boy continuously patted his chest with confidence, assuring he could handle the guiding task well.

Zhou Xun nodded, tapped his storage bag, retrieved a Tier Three Flying Ship, and suspended it in front of him, then leaped onto it.

This was a trophy he obtained after killing an unlucky guy,

Then he waved to the boy standing by and said:

”Come up!”

The boy hurriedly ran over excitedly and climbed onto the flying ship.

”Senior, your flying ship is really beautiful. I’ve ridden on two seniors’ ships before, but neither compares to yours!”

Once on board, the boy looked around excitedly, exhibiting youthful candor and liveliness.

Zhou Xun saw this and didn’t mind, casually channeling his mana, and the flying ship swiftly ascended into the air, startling the boy.

Zhou Xun noticed and quipped:

”Didn’t you ride twice before? How come you’re still like this?”

The boy turned pale and stuttered slightly:

”The ones I rode before were never this fast, nor could they fly so high!”

Seeing this, Zhou Xun laughed heartily and activated a windproof shield for the boy, improving his complexion.

”Where’s the lodging in the city, show me.”

The boy pointed towards the east,

”That’s the Cultivator Inn,”

Zhou Xun then controlled the Instant Light Ship to fly in the direction the boy indicated.

During the flight, Zhou Xun casually asked:

”It’s my first time in this Jinyang Immortal City, tell me about anything interesting here!”

”Yes!” The boy cupped his hands in agreement, then cleared his throat and began introducing:

”Speaking of the recent major event in our Jinyang Immortal City, it has to be the once-in-a-century ’Spirit Seizing Conference’.”

”Spirit Seizing Conference? Explain in detail,” Zhou Xun instructed.

The boy nodded and explained the Spirit Seizing Conference one by one.

”Under the rule of our Great Jin, in the Nine Provinces, there are a total of two hundred thirty-seven prefectures, except for the Three Protectorates near the Imperial City, as well as Jizhou, Yuzhou, Xuzhou, and Yongzhou,”

”The other state mansion masters are not directly appointed by the dynasty,”

”Instead, every hundred years there is an open challenge and selection process publicly conducted in ’Jinyang Immortal City’, with the victor automatically becoming the mansion master, enjoying great power.”

”Therefore, as the conference approaches, almost all of Great Jin’s high-tier cultivators gather here,”

”It truly is the most prestigious event in our Jinyang Immortal City!”

Glancing at Zhou Xun and himself, the boy continued:

”Nine years from now will be the new Spirit Seizing Conference, senior, you should certainly have a look then.”
