Chapter 50: Immortal

Chu Minghao smiled at the eunuch. "Please wait outside for a while, we haven't finished our meal yet."

The eunuch paused slightly, then immediately closed the door of the private room obediently.

Chu Minghao looked at the table full of food and smiled at the three. "After talking for so long, I haven't eaten a bite yet."

After speaking, Chu Minghao picked up his rice bowl and ate and drank heartily. Although he was not as rude as Amadai, he was not pretending to be reserved, giving people a feeling of true temperament.

Su Xing’s favor for Chu Minghao increased even more, and Amadai was obviously the same. He picked up a jar of wine, patted off the mud seal, poured a large bowl, and then poured a large bowl for Su Xing and Chu Minghao, and started drinking it himself.

Su Xing also started to eat and drink heartily, with a full appetite. Chu Minghao was no less than him. The two saw the wine bowls, drank them in a few gulps, looked at each other and smiled, and started eating again.

At the same time, outside the door of the private room, several eunuchs were full of anxiety, while the accompanying tall armored men were expressionless.

The leading strong man asked the eunuch leader in a low voice, "Zhong Guiren, isn't the Emperor very anxious? Is it... appropriate for us to do this?"

The eunuch leader glanced at the strong man, but the two seemed to have a good relationship, so he said softly, "It is precisely because of this that we cannot have any disrespect. This one is an Immortal!"

The leading strong man was noncommittal about the word "Immortal", but he didn't say another word, just stood behind the eunuch leader like an iron tower.

In the private room, the three men ate and drank heartily. Although they didn't say they were full of wine and food, at least they tasted it. Chu Minghao drank a cup of tea and smiled. "The taste is really great. You don't know, the three dream worlds where I set up Level 5 shelters, one era was in the middle of the Third War, eating all kinds of two-headed cattle, roasted lizards, giant earthworms, one era was in the middle of the Jurassic period, there was a lot of meat, but it was tasteless, and there was a dream world with a huge deviation, but the pollution was insufficient, so it was still 0.7 baseline reality. That world was all ice and snow, the whole world was frozen, and I could only eat ice every time I went in..."

Su Xing smiled and said, "Then why don't you set up a shelter in a dream world like this?"

Chu Minghao shook his head and smiled. "I want to break through to 0.6 baseline reality. The more dangerous, the more grotesque, the greater the deviation of the dream world, the more good things there are... I have to fight. There are tens of millions of maintenance staff on Gaia alone, and more than a billion citizens trapped in the dream world. I must become stronger faster and take on my responsibilities and obligations faster."

Although Su Xing didn't have this kind of mind and ideas, he admired this kind of person very much, so he toasted Chu Minghao again.

Chu Minghao drank it in one gulp and said to the three, "Basically everything that can be said has been said. The rest are just side branches, or things that cannot be said, and can only wait for you to know when your strength is high. So now let’s talk about setting up a shelter, how about it?"

The three nodded. Chu Minghao stretched out five fingers. "There are five ways to set up a shelter. First, obtain the ownership of a building or an area. Second, form a force composed mostly of indigenous people in the dream world. Third, change the era trend of the dream world or leave a record. Fourth, occupy two or three of the above three. Fifth... I won't say the fifth."

Xu Shilan said unhappily, "Every time you talk about something bad, you won't say it. Do you know why I rejected you when we were engaged? It’s because your indecisive personality makes me really unhappy!"

Chu Minghao didn't get angry, just touched his head and smiled foolishly, and then he said sternly, "Okay, it’s not a big deal to say it. The last way to set up a shelter is to kill. The more you kill, the higher the shelter you set up. And this last way is also called a bloody shelter... Purchase, force, event, special, and bloody shelters, each reward and function are slightly different. I personally suggest that it is best to get a special shelter, if not, you must get an event shelter."

The three were thinking about the information of the bloody shelter in silence. Chu Minghao said, "Now is a good opportunity. This should be an ancient feudal dynasty. I don't know the specific situation, but since it is a feudal dynasty, superstitious rulers, nobles, and religions that rely on the first two are indispensable. The eunuchs and guards outside are sent by the rulers of this feudal dynasty. Then let’s use this opportunity to set up a Level 2 special shelter, how about it?"

Amadai and Xu Shilan nodded. Su Xing couldn't help but complain, "No, Amadai is a person from the Third War. I can understand the chaotic times. You two are clearly high-level citizens with power and influence. Don't you read history?"

Chu Minghao shook his head. "Can't read... Blue erased all past history, leaving only the simplest records, so we only know the general feudal dynasty of the East, the names of some countries in the West, and we don't know what history they have at all."

"There is such a thing!?"

Su Xing, Amadai, and Xu Shilan were all surprised.

Chu Minghao looked at Xu Shilan unhappily. "No, they are fine, what are you surprised about? The predecessor of the Thirteen Singularity Group, Blue, which once controlled everything in humanity after the Third War, your ancestors also participated in that battle to encircle and suppress Blue. I don't believe there is no record of this in your family library."

Xu Shilan shrugged. Chu Minghao continued, "Because of this, we are really not familiar with the history before the Third War... Brother Su Xing, it seems you are very familiar with this era?"

Su Xing had nothing to hide and said directly, "I am a future person frozen in the 21st century."

Chu Minghao was silent. He looked at Su Xing with pity, but immediately smiled and said, "Don't be afraid. If you really have Super-Brain potential, hundreds of years of spiritual darkness can still be suppressed. Even if not, when I can return to Gaia, I can also use the main brain share to suppress and resolve it for you... How many days do you have left?"

Su Xing said, "About 160 days."

"160 days..."

Chu Minghao thought for a while and said, "You’d better practice some extraordinary cultivation techniques involving the mind, consciousness, soul, etc. These can greatly enhance your self-personality, delay the rate of spiritual darkness, and drag on time as much as possible."

Su Xing nodded. Chu Minghao asked, "Since Brother Su Xing is familiar with this era, what should we do next?"

Su Xing thought about it, and the other three looked at him. After a while, Su Xing smiled and said, "Didn't you send someone to invite us? Then let’s go. As for how to do it... it’s too simple to have you here. Just need to..."

"Immortal?"

In the Imperial Palace, Zhao Ji, more than a dozen purple-robed and scarlet-robed officials, three Imperial Princes, and the pale-faced National Master Guo Jing were all looking at a picture.

In the picture, a young man carrying a sword box smiled and patted the sword box. In an instant, the world turned black and white, and all things were static. Only the radiant light like the scorching sun came out of the sword box, disappeared in a flash, and the world returned to normal.

The Six Imperial Seals! It is the heavy weapon of the Great Song Dynasty, deciding the floating clouds above and the earth’s discipline below, connecting the national fortune golden dragon, all evil cannot invade, all evil cannot dye, in this Bianliang City, as long as the national fortune does not fall, it can suppress gods, demons, ghosts, and monsters with less than 300 years of Taoism.

But just now, the Six Imperial Seals rang at the same time, and there were slight cracks on the Six Seals.

This made the head of the Zongren Mansion terrified, and he immediately reported it to the Great Song Emperor Zhao Ji.

This matter was immeasurable. Zhao Ji hurriedly brought the ministers and princes to the place where the Six Imperial Seals were placed, and then saw such a picture from the Six Imperial Seals.

And when the National Master Guo Jing returned with a pale face, although he didn't say a word, everyone saw that his Daoist crown was gone, his hair was disheveled, and thinking of the outsider who spied on the Imperial Princess in front of the young man in the picture, how could everyone not guess the cause and effect of the matter? Zhao Ji no longer had a kind face and sternly asked Guo Jing about the process of the matter.

Guo Jing was in a state of shock at this time. After walking around between life and death, his mind was in chaos. Facing the Emperor’s questioning, he could only admit that he had encountered a terrifying true immortal. In an instant, all his defense methods were broken. If the other party didn't have the intention to kill, I’m afraid he wouldn't even be able to put together a complete piece of meat now.

"Sword Immortal... It must be the legendary Sword Immortal. This kind of method must be the supreme method of refining swords into silk among Sword Immortals." Guo Jing’s eyes were full of fear when he said this.

Zhao Ji and the ministers and princes looked at each other. Although they felt it was absurd and unbelievable, the facts were in front of them, and they couldn't help but believe it.

You know, everything in the world has a natural life, even the spirits of monsters in the mountains have a natural life, so there are few monsters with decades of Taoism, and every hundred-year-old monster is a great monster.

A Daoist like National Master Guo Jing has had more than 30 years of Taoism, which is already one of the top Daoist experts in the world. It is said that the ancestor of the Zhang Tianshi lineage has more than 70 years of Taoism, which is already the peak.

And this young man only used one move to break the seal of the Six Imperial Seals, and even caused the Six Imperial Seals to have slight cracks. I don't know how much national fortune is needed to heal it. This is at least 400 or 500 years of Taoism, and who in the world can live to 400 or 500 years?

!

Only an Immortal!

Zhao Ji and the ministers and princes watched the picture recorded by the Six Imperial Seals over and over again. The more they watched, the more they yearned in their eyes, especially the Emperor Zhao Ji, whose fanaticism was almost about to spray out.

"Is there really an Immortal? Is there really an Immortal?"

Just then, several eunuchs ran into the hall hurriedly, and then whispered something in Zhao Ji’s ear.

Zhao Ji was overjoyed. "Why don't you invite the Immortal to the Zichen Hall? Is the banquet ready!?"

The leading eunuch nodded immediately. Zhao Ji was about to speak to the ministers, but the eunuch said urgently, "But the Immortal is outside the Imperial Palace and hasn't come in."

Zhao Ji was anxious. "Why? Is it because I didn't welcome him personally!? I was also afraid of disturbing the Immortal, I will go, I will go."

The ministers and princes were secretly slandering in their hearts. What fear of disturbance, it was nothing more than fear of death, not daring to confirm the intention of this Immortal, so he sent someone to invite him. If he came, it would prove that he was harmless to the Imperial Song.

The eunuch hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, it is not so, but the Immortal’s accompanying disciple, the outsider who spied on the Imperial Princess just now, is unwilling. He said that he was attacked remotely just now, and he is not convinced. He wants to fight with the person who attacked him and confirm who is higher, otherwise he will not come to this Imperial Palace!"

Zhao Ji was stunned, the ministers were stunned, the princes were stunned. They really didn't expect such a reason.

A purple-robed minister stroked his beard and said, "I have seen it mentioned in those strange books about gods and immortals. If a mortal wants to become an immortal, he must have a harmonious heart and cannot have any defects. Could it be that this outsider... no, this Immortal’s disciple is in the process of refining his heart and cannot tolerate any defects in his heart?"

"Exactly, exactly!"

Zhao Ji nodded immediately. He looked at Guo Jing. "National Master, can you go and compete with that Immortal’s disciple?"

Guo Jing’s face changed greatly, and he was about to refuse, but the eunuch said again, "The Immortal said that he will not make a move again, and let his disciple compare. But if someone wins a move and wants to run, he is kind-hearted and cannot see blood, so be careful in the next life."

Guo Jing was stunned for a while. After a long time, he understood the meaning of "be careful in the next life". His face turned into a bitter melon face, and he was silent for a few seconds. The Emperor, ministers, and princes were all looking at him.

Guo Jing gritted his teeth, arched his hands and said, "I am willing to compete, please allow me to take out the Golden Warrior puppet and various magic weapons from the Daoist Hall. Without this, how can I fight close combat with a blood-qi warrior? This is not fair to me!!"

Zhao Ji thought about it and felt that it didn't matter. Anyway, there was an Immortal pressing the scene, so he nodded with a smile. "Hard work, National Master, go quickly, go quickly."

Guo Jing bowed to the Emperor, every minister, and every prince with a smile that seemed to be crying, as if he was writing a will. Since he became the National Master, he had never been so respectful.

After dragging for at least one or two minutes, Guo Jing walked slowly toward the Daoist Hall.

After Guo Jing left, Zhao Ji bowed his head and thought for a long time. He suddenly smiled, greeted a eunuch, and whispered to him, "Yongfu has returned to the palace, right? She has been innocent and romantic since she was a child, and she likes these strange stories about gods and immortals the most. Let her go and watch the battle."

The eunuch took the order and left the palace quickly.

At this moment, Imperial Princess Yongfu, a girl of thirteen or fourteen, was combing her long hair in front of the bronze mirror, but her mind was thinking of the brute she saw today, especially the scene of breaking the wall at the end. Thinking about it, the girl suddenly laughed.

Her eyes... were exactly the same as the Little Mute’s.
