Chapter 1069 - 465: Really Can’t Stir Things Up Anymore

The Immortal Realm is fragmented, yet the Immortal Realm still exists.

The Sea of Realms is boundless, with every existing Immortal Realm scattered across it, continuing to uphold their ancient ability to select immortals.

Inside the Selection Pavilion of the Great Wilderness Immortal Realm.

Han Song and Li Donglin, observing the name of Haoshan that they had just recorded, watched as it vanished directly from the Register of Immortal Names, both showing a look of confusion.

”Han, what’s going on?”

Li Donglin, compared to Han Song, was younger and it was his first time being assigned to work in the Selection Pavilion.

Thus, he almost always had to ask the more experienced Han Song.

Han Song frowned, a deep in thought expression on his face.

”The disappearance of a name from the Register of Immortal Names is not something that hasn’t happened before...”

He returned to the side of the Immortal Crystal Stone, touching the Spirit Stone with his hand, seemingly sensing something.

”I can no longer feel any presence from that fellow. Once the Immortal Crystal Stone is activated, it establishes a connection with those becoming immortal in the Lower Realm, which cannot be completely severed unless he died unexpectedly after undergoing the Immortal Door baptism.”

Han Song affirmed.

Upon hearing this, Li Donglin’s expression changed immediately.

”The Lower Realm truly is as terrifying as the senior brothers said, where even a cultivator who just became immortal can die instantly.”

Li Donglin was born in the Great Wilderness Immortal Realm and had hardly ever left it.

The information he received was that there are great terrors within the Sea of Realms, posing risks even to Golden Immortals and Celestial Immortals.

The current events seemed to validate this statement.

”It’s a pity, we finally waited for a descendant of Buzhou Mountain, yet he died before even starting to traverse the Sea of Realms.”

Li Donglin paused, then cupped his hands towards Han Song:

”Thanks to Han for the reminder, otherwise if I hastily reported to the Celestial Ancestor, I would have been punished!”

Han Song casually waved his hand.

”You and I both are on duty in the Selection Pavilion, it’s just common sense, Brother Li, no need to be so polite.”

”As for the identity of the Buzhou Mountain descendent, I reckon he was not extraordinary and likely hadn’t received the true inheritance of Buzhou Mountain, otherwise how could he die so easily?”

Li Donglin nodded.

”Han is correct, this person likely acquired some of Buzhou Mountain’s inheritance by chance, but cannot be considered a true descendent of Buzhou Mountain.”

Han Song looked at him, chuckled: ”However, his appearance does prove one thing, the remnants of Buzhou Mountain indeed lie within the Sea of Realms under the jurisdiction of our Great Wilderness Immortal Realm.”

Li Donglin tentatively asked: ”Should this matter be reported to the Celestial Ancestor within the palace, Han, what do you think?”

Han Song said: ”Let’s wait a bit longer, we still have one year left on duty here, it won’t be late to inform them afterward, there might be new developments.”

”What do you mean, Han?”

”The Buzhou Mountain, like the Immortal Realm, fragmented in the past, I think with the emergence of its descendant now, there will surely be more to come, no need to rush.”

Han Song returned to his original position, continued to sit down cross-legged.

Seeing this, Li Donglin said no more.

”The pinnacle of Buzhou Mountain’s inheritance was no weaker than the Great Wilderness Immortal Realm, if I could obtain its complete inheritance, it would be a great boon for both myself and the Qian Daoist Palace.”

Li Donglin quietly pondered.

”No, even if the ten-year term of duty is up, I must find an excuse to continue staying in the Selection Pavilion...”

Opposite him, Han Song was almost formulating the same plan in his mind.

In the Great Wilderness Immortal Realm, being relegated to serve in the declining Selection Pavilion indicated their status was not high.

But given their abilities, moving elsewhere wouldn’t yield significant gains either.

Now the Selection Pavilion seems to promise an opportunity, they must stay here no matter what.

”Brother Li, are you thinking about continuing your duty at the Selection Pavilion?”

Deep in thought, Li Donglin immediately brightened upon hearing Han Song’s voice.

”Han understands me well, I’m planning exactly this, just uncertain about what excuse to use, as any slight oversight could draw unwanted attention, which would be troublesome.”

Han Song gazed at him, eyes shimmering.

He definitely could find a way to continue his duty at the Selection Pavilion, but it’s uncertain for Li Donglin opposite him.

After pondering a bit, Han Song decided to help Li Donglin stay.

After all, if Li Donglin were replaced by someone else, the situation in the Selection Pavilion would change immediately.

Li Donglin had been getting along well with him for so long, their conversations were enjoyable, and Li Donglin was quite polite.

Hence, Han Song decided to help Li Donglin stay.

”Brother Li, we need not find too many excuses. Aren’t they going to select the next person on duty here? They surely won’t want to come here, then our chance arises.”

Li Donglin wasn’t truly foolish, after a brief thought, he understood Han Song’s meaning.

”Han, you are truly knowledgeable about human nature.”

The two exchanged smiles.

They continued to sit idly, deciding not to leave the Selection Pavilion for at least a century.

They anticipated a long wait, but surprisingly within a few days, the Immortal Crystal Stone in the center of the Selection Pavilion responded again.

The Immortal Crystal Stone flickered slightly, much smaller than the glow detected last time from the Buzhou Mountain descendant.

Its glow just happened to illuminate the faces of Han Song and Li Donglin sitting cross-legged.

”Han, has someone in the Lower Realm become immortal again?”

Li Donglin quickly rose, approached the Immortal Crystal Stone, reaching out to touch it.

Han Song, equally curious, followed suit.

They immediately sensed that the Immortal Crystal Stone had again lost a trace of energy, transported to the Lower Realm, seemingly in the process of condensing the Immortal Door.

However, this time, the energy consumption was minimal.

They sensed the state of the Immortal Crystal Stone, just as the Sea Ancestor in the True Martial Spirit Realm was testing the grade of its condensed Immortal Door for the first time using the Immortal Path Symbol Array.
