Chapter 1 Clear Sound

The voice was crisp.

But it made Li Shanshi's expression change.

Lu Changsheng looked over.

There were two people, a heroic man wearing a wild dragon robe, extraordinary in appearance, seven feet tall, walking like a dragon and striding like a tiger, exuding a kind of majesty. Moreover, a dragon of fortune was condensed above his head, clearly a prince of some dynasty.

However, it wasn't him who spoke, but a girl beside him, wearing purple clothes, looking fifteen or sixteen years old, somewhat mischievous, with a pretty face, a beauty in the making.

"Brother Lu, let's go quickly."

Li Shanshi said, wanting to leave quickly.

This surprised Lu Changsheng a bit, wondering why Li Shanshi was so afraid of a little girl.

"Li Shanshi, why are you running?"

The girl in purple appeared directly in front of Li Shanshi, blocking his way, with an angry look on her face.

"Alas, Princess Yueling, it's not that I want to run, it's just that every time you see me, you want to send me some miscellaneous pills, I really... can't stand it anymore."

Li Shanshi whined, opening his mouth helplessly, expressing his true feelings.

Pills?

Lu Changsheng was a little curious.

"Li Shanshi, ah, Li Shanshi, I knew you were congenitally weak, and kindly refined medicine for you, but you actually said such a thing, it's really disheartening."

Princess Yueling was a little angry as she said this.

"It's not like that, Princess Yueling, the last time you gave me pills, I took one and had diarrhea for a month, a whole month! Half my life was gone, my father almost went to make a scene, I really had no choice."

Li Shanshi's voice even had a bit of a sob, making people feel inexplicably pitiful.

Just then, Princess Yueling's brother spoke.

"Yueling, don't be mischievous!"

The latter came over and looked at Li Shanshi, saying, "Brother Li, don't blame her, my sister is naturally naughty. What she did before was indeed unfair to Brother Li. My father even told me to apologize to Brother Li if I saw him."

Princess Yueling's brother spoke, and he was polite. At the same time, he glanced at Lu Changsheng, slightly curious, "This is?"

He was a little curious.

Li Shanshi immediately introduced, "Lu Muzhi, a friend I just met."

After saying this, Li Shanshi looked at Lu Changsheng, introducing him, "Brother Lu, this person is Wang Chuan, the crown prince of the Taihua Dynasty in the Immortal World."

Li Shanshi introduced him like this, Lu Changsheng nodded, and the latter also cupped his fist and said, "Greetings, Brother Lu!"

Wang Chuan spoke with a smile on his face.

"Greetings, Brother Wang."

Lu Changsheng also nodded.

"Since we met so coincidentally, I'll set up a banquet. I hope Brother Wang won't refuse."

Li Shanshi said with a smile.

"Then thank you."

Wang Chuan nodded. Yueling couldn't help but focus her gaze on Lu Changsheng. At the same time, she took out several pearl-like pills and said, "This fellow Daoist, I see that you are handsome and have an extraordinary bearing. These are the beauty pills I refined. After taking them, they can nourish the skin and beautify the face, which is of great help to handsome guys like you."

Yueling looked at Lu Changsheng slyly. The pills in her hand exuded an unusual aura, like pearls, and it seemed they really had a beauty effect.

But unfortunately, Lu Changsheng was Yueling's ancestor in terms of alchemy.

"I also have some attainments in the art of pills. This is a pill formula I wrote casually on weekdays. Since you have a connection with me, I'll give it to you."

Lu Changsheng calmly took out a pill formula. Back in the Lower Realm, when he reached the Mahayana realm, he wrote a lot of pill formulas, but he didn't have time to refine the pills, so he could only carry them with him. He didn't expect to meet an alchemy genius today, so he might as well give it to her.

"Pill formula?"

Yueling was a little surprised. Then, she took the pill formula, and a look of curiosity appeared on her pretty face.

But Lu Changsheng had already passed her and walked in front.

At this time, Li Shanshi secretly transmitted his voice.

"Brother Lu, you are really wise. There's something wrong with the pills she refines. Actually, we all know that she doesn't have any talent for refining pills at all, but she likes to refine pills. All the pills she refines have side effects. Last time, she gave me some pills, and I almost lost half my life. If I hadn't stopped my father, he would have probably led people to the Taihua Dynasty to kill people. Alas, Brother Lu, you must be careful."

Li Shanshi transmitted his voice, reminding Lu Changsheng, fearing that Lu Changsheng would fall for this little girl's tricks.

Lu Changsheng nodded, indicating that he understood.

Soon, the group arrived at a restaurant.

Qingzhou Ancient City was not considered a big city, so although there were many restaurants, most of them were not as luxurious as one might imagine. However, even so, this restaurant was still decent, at least much better than other restaurants.

The restaurant was empty except for some servants. The rest of the guests were invited out by Li Shanshi.

As for how they were invited, everyone knew.

"Several Immortals, please come in quickly. I am the owner of this restaurant. I have already asked the chef to prepare the dishes. Wait for a moment, and all the delicacies will be served."

Walking into the restaurant, the owner came over, looking at everyone with a flattering expression.

He was very happy, after all, someone had offered ten times the price to buy his restaurant. How could he not be happy?

Ten times the price! Ten thousand high-grade immortal stones! Qingzhou Ancient City originally didn't have much traffic, and his restaurant's business was even more average. Although there were many geniuses gathered here during this period of time.

But to earn ten thousand high-grade immortal stones would take at least several thousand years. Faced with such temptation, he naturally sold it directly and went to another place to open a restaurant.

"Okay, arrange the best private room for us. Also, the restaurant doesn't need to be so deserted. Later, whoever comes can enter. All expenses will be paid by me, Li Shanshi."

Li Shanshi said, glancing at the empty restaurant.

He liked liveliness, and emptiness was too deserted.

"Okay, okay, Immortal, please rest assured, I will definitely arrange it properly."

The owner said repeatedly. Anyway, it wasn't his money, so he could invite anyone, even the entire city.

"Fellow Daoists, let's go, let's go."

Li Shanshi was indeed very enthusiastic, leading everyone upstairs. The servants led the way, and soon they arrived at a private room.

The private room was large, and everyone sat down.

Lu Changsheng, Tianjizi, Li Shanshi, Princess Yueling, and Wang Chuan, a total of five people, sat inside.

Soon, in less than a quarter of an hour, dishes were brought up one after another.

Yin-Yang Fish Tofu, Congealed Frost Donkey Meat, Seven-Colored Fish, Three Treasures Chicken, dishes were brought to the table one after another.

Each dish was complete in color, aroma, and taste, making people's index fingers move. Tianjizi had been swallowing saliva. He was doing very poorly in the Immortal World. Where had he ever eaten such things?

So just smelling this kind of taste, he couldn't stand it.

"Brother Lu, Senior Tianji, Brother Wang, Princess Yueling, today I, Li Shanshi, am very fortunate to make friends with you all. This cup of wine is my toast to you all. I hope you all will take care of me in the future, take care of me."

Li Shanshi was very smart, even one could say he was sophisticated, with vast wealth, yet he was so low-key, and his words were appropriate, making people feel comfortable.

"You're too kind!"

"Brother Li is too serious."

Everyone picked up their wine glasses, and Lu Changsheng also picked up his wine glass, but he was wearing a mask, so he couldn't drink for the time being. He just picked it up as a token.

Soon, the crowd had gone through a few rounds of drinks. Tianjizi shamelessly picked up his chopsticks and ate the delicacies on the table.

Princess Yueling also moved her chopsticks, tasting the delicacies.

However, Wang Chuan's voice rang out.

"Brother Li, do you know anything about the Immortal Emperor's Tomb?"

Wang Chuan opened his mouth, looking at Li Shanshi, asking like this.

He knew that Li Shanshi was the son of the person in charge of Wanfu Tower (Ten-Thousand-Wealth Tower), and Wanfu Tower's intelligence was definitely more than a hundred times stronger than his Taihua Dynasty.

After all, Wanfu Tower's business was not only the entire Immortal World, but even the Six Realms, spread all over the world. Naturally, it was easier for them to obtain some information.

"The Immortal Emperor's Tomb?" Li Shanshi took a sip of wine, and then a hesitant expression appeared on his chubby face. But after thinking about it, he still continued to speak, "If nothing unexpected happens, this Immortal Emperor's Tomb should be from the Ancient Era."

Li Shanshi said this.

From the Ancient Era?

Wang Chuan and Yueling were shocked. Lu Changsheng was very calm. What was the Ancient Era? He had even seen the more ancient Lord of Tianyuan. The Ancient Era was really nothing.

Tianjizi belonged to the completely clueless type, constantly picking up vegetables to eat, not participating in the topic, eating first.

"Since it's from the Ancient Era, do you know which Immortal Emperor it is?"

Wang Chuan continued to ask, full of curiosity.

"This is not clear for the time being. Currently, we only know that it's a certain Immortal Emperor from the Ancient Era." Li Shanshi said this. Although he had a lot of intelligence, it didn't mean he knew everything. He could only say that he knew everything one step earlier than others.

Getting this answer, Wang Chuan couldn't help but sigh.

"The Immortal Emperor's Tomb, if we can get some Immortal Emperor treasures in it, it would be like adding wings to a tiger for us. The True Dragon Gathering is about to begin, and I've heard that the Ten Thousand Mountains may revive in this era. This is a great opportunity, an unspeakable opportunity for us Immortal World cultivators."

"The people above are fighting fiercely, and we geniuses are fighting even more fiercely. I'm only half a step away from being listed on the True Dragon Rankings."

Wang Chuan opened his mouth, and at the same time took a sip of wine, saying with an extremely firm tone.

He was the crown prince of the Taihua Dynasty, with a noble status, but currently he was ranked sixth on the Qiankun Rankings, in the mid-stage of the Immortal Lord realm. He was not yet a True Dragon powerhouse, so he was very diligent, venturing into various secret realms, just to transform himself, wanting to be listed on the True Dragon Rankings and become the true heir of the Taihua Dynasty.

After all, in the past, the crown princes of the Taihua Dynasty were basically geniuses on the True Dragon Rankings. His generation was a bit weak, so naturally, he was under a lot of pressure.

And the most important thing was that among the Four Dynasties, his strength was considered the bottom among his peers. The other three crown princes, one was on the True Dragon Rankings, and the remaining two occupied the third and fourth positions. He was under even greater pressure.

"Royal Brother, I told you, as long as you eat my Huolong Dan (Dragon Transformation Pill), I guarantee you can transform into a dragon. You just don't believe me."

After hearing this, Princess Yueling took out a golden pill surrounded by dragon energy, saying this.

However, Wang Chuan's expression changed slightly, and then he remained silent, obviously not wanting to pay attention to his sister.

"Although there are treasures in the Immortal Emperor's Tomb, there may also be dangers. A few days ago, a Holy Land forcibly opened an Ancient Immortal Saint's Tomb, and as a result, three Immortal Saints died, and one Immortal King was severely injured. Whether it's a blessing or a curse, no one can say for sure."

Li Shanshi opened his mouth, saying with a serious expression.

"Immortal Saint's Tomb, actually let an Immortal King get injured? Really?"

Tianjizi was full, and he asked with some surprise, thinking that this was a bit unreasonable.

However, Wang Chuan shook his head and said, "Times are different. The powerhouses of each era are different. In the most ancient times, when chaos first opened, and the Dao of Heaven was flawless, in that era, a Golden Immortal powerhouse could easily kill an Immortal Venerable. And in the Mythical Era, a Golden Immortal powerhouse could easily kill an Immortal Lord."

"As time passed, the Dao of Heaven gradually became flawed. The Immortal Saints of the Ancient Era are completely different from the Immortal Saints of this era."

Wang Chuan explained, telling Tianjizi why an Immortal Saint's Tomb could hurt an Immortal King.

"But it shouldn't be so terrifying, right? The difference between an Immortal Saint and an Immortal King is a hundred thousand miles, not even in the same dimension."

Tianjizi also understood a little. He was from the divination and deduction lineage, belonging to the type whose cultivation was not good, but he knew a lot. He had some knowledge of everything in the world, knowing how terrifying the difference was.

"That's one thing, and there's a second point that Brother Wang didn't make clear." Li Shanshi opened his mouth, and then spoke eloquently, "In the Ancient Era, many powerhouses, including many cultivators now, believe that people can be reborn. The higher the cultivation, the more they believe they can live again, but wanting to live another life doesn't depend on human power, but on the power of heaven and earth."

"Therefore, these powerhouses will choose famous mountains and rivers in the world, and then bury themselves, absorbing the immortal energy of heaven and earth, attempting to live again after hundreds of epochs."

"However, this is simply impossible. When a person dies, it's like a lamp going out. Once dead is dead. Even an Immortal Emperor cannot be resurrected. But the higher the realm of cultivators, the more obsessed they are, the more they want to live forever. Therefore, they spare no expense, using the earth's dragon veins to change the mountains and rivers, absorbing the immortal energy of heaven and earth."

"They want to go against the heavens, but as a result, not only can they not be resurrected, but their corpses absorb this immortal energy of heaven and earth, the essence of the sun and moon, thereby giving birth to a demonic fetus. This demonic fetus is terrifyingly powerful, has no thoughts, only knows how to kill. Therefore, after an Immortal Saint's corpse has been nourished by heaven and earth for a hundred epochs, its strength is equivalent to an Immortal King."

"Once it's born, it will be world-destroying."

Li Shanshi spoke out this secret, making Tianjizi click his tongue in wonder.

He didn't expect that there was such a thing.

"Then in that case, if someone nurtures an Immortal Corpse, wouldn't they be easily causing chaos in the world?"

Tianjizi couldn't help but ask.

Wang Chuan shook his head and replied.

"Not necessarily. After all, with the power of time, even the corpses of Immortal Kings will be eroded. In the end, maybe not even bones will be left. To nurture a demonic fetus, it must be an extremely terrifying sun, moon, mountain, river, and earth dragon vein. Such a treasure land is hard to find in the world."

Wang Chuan said like this, making everyone suddenly understand.

Just then.

Outside the private room, there was a knock on the door.

"Young Master, several peerless geniuses have come, one of whom is Tai Shang Xuan Ji (Supreme Profound Mystery)."

The voice rang out.

In an instant, it attracted everyone's surprise.
