207: A powerful cultivator at the Void Immortal realm encounters Li Changsheng once more!

This was one of the top three Holy Lands in the Central Region, possessing an incredibly profound foundation.

In particular, the legendary Yaochi Holy Mother was a genuine Void Immortal Realm existence, her depth unfathomable.

“However, with my current strength, even if I face the Void Immortal Realm directly, I have the power to protect myself.

Besides, I'm not going to make an enemy of the Yaochi Holy Land; I'm going to deliver an Opportunity and forge a good relationship.”

...The next day.

Central Region, Yaochi Holy Land.

This was a celestial palace floating above the Nine Heavens, surrounded by clouds and mist, with thousands of streaks of auspicious Qi.

Countless fairies dressed in colorful clothes flew among the flowers, a sight of incomparable beauty.

Outside the Jade Pool Great Hall, a plain-looking middle-aged man was talking confidently to an old woman in front of him.

Although the old woman's face was aged, the aura around her was as deep as an abyss and as heavy as a prison; she was a Great Ascension Stage Grand Elder of the Yaochi Holy Land.

“Great Master, can this method truly cure the nine marvels undying medicine?” The Grand Elder's tone carried a hint of urgency.

“Naturally.”

Li Changsheng stroked his beard and smiled: “Since I have come, the medicine will surely cure the illness; I will definitely let the divine medicine regain its vitality!”

Clearly, Li Changsheng had already taken action and performed techniques to treat the nine marvels undying medicine.

Just then.

“Slash!”

The Sect-Protecting Grand Array above the Yaochi Holy Land, which had remained unbroken for ten thousand years, suddenly rippled violently.

There was no attack, nor any Killing Intent.

Only a vast and boundless, terrifying pressure that seemed to stand on equal footing with heaven and earth slowly descended like a tide.

Great Ascension Stage?!

No! This aura was so strong that it even surpassed an ordinary Great Ascension Stage!

“Who is it?!”

The Grand Elder's expression changed greatly as she abruptly looked up.

She saw the Void Realm crack open, and a slender figure stepped out from within.

The newcomer was dressed in white, handsome and elegant, with Chaos currents swirling around his body. His eyes were as deep as stars; just by standing there, he seemed to become the center of this world, making everything around him pale in comparison.

“Qingyun Dao Sect, Lu Yuan, comes to visit.”

The voice was calm, yet it resonated like a great bronze bell throughout the entire Yaochi Holy Land.

“Lu Yuan?!”

“The Number One Person Beneath the Void Immortal?!”

Within the Yaochi Holy Land, countless Disciples cried out in surprise, their eyes filled with awe and curiosity.

And that Li Changsheng, who was currently showing off, felt his legs go weak upon hearing this name, almost falling to the ground.

“It's him?! Why has that baleful star come?!”

Li Changsheng screamed in his heart, cold sweat instantly soaking his back. He vaguely felt that Lu Yuan's arrival seemed to have something to do with him.

Just then.

“Boom!”

Deep within the Jade Pool, the gates of a Forbidden Ground palace that had been sealed for tens of thousands of years suddenly burst open.

An aura even more ethereal and lofty than Lu Yuan's, as if it did not belong to this world, soared into the sky.

Void Immortal!

Amidst that sky-filling celestial light, an exquisitely beautiful woman dressed in Nine-Colored Rainbow Feather Robes came walking through the air barefoot.

Her face was peerless, her skin whiter than snow, and a cinnabar mark on her brow exuded a divinity of compassion for the world.

Every strand of her hair seemed to flow with Immortal Dao Laws, and nine illusory celestial rings circled her body, making her look like a goddess from the Nine Heavens, unattainable.

The Yaochi Holy Mother!

A true Void Immortal Realm powerhouse!

As soon as she appeared, the Great Dao Laws of heaven and earth seemed to be suppressed, becoming docile.

“So it is Fellow Daoist Lu who has graced us with his presence. Forgive me for not welcoming you sooner.”

The Yaochi Holy Mother's voice was ethereal, like heavenly music.

Though she was being polite, that invisible pressure belonging to a Void Immortal was quietly enveloping Lu Yuan, seemingly wanting to test the mettle of this 'Number One Person Beneath the Void Immortal'.

However.

Faced with this Void Immortal pressure that was enough to make Great Ascension Stage Cultivators kneel.

Lu Yuan's expression remained as usual; even the corner of his clothes did not move.

“Buzz!”

The Chaos Great Dao circulated within his body, evolving into a Chaos Phenomenon of world-creation behind him.

That Chaos current encompassed all things, actually forcing the Yaochi Holy Mother's Void Immortal Laws back by sheer force!

Holding his own!

He did not fall into a disadvantage!

“Hmm?”

A flash of surprise crossed the Yaochi Holy Mother's beautiful eyes, which then turned into admiration.

“Truly well-deserved of your reputation.”

“For Fellow Daoist Lu to have such cultivation at such a young age, even in the ancient times, you would be a presence as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns.”

At this moment, she truly recognized Lu Yuan's strength and placed him on an equal footing with herself.

“The Holy Mother overpraises me.”

Lu Yuan cupped his hands slightly, neither humble nor arrogant.

“I wonder what brings Fellow Daoist Lu here this time?” the Yaochi Holy Mother asked.

“I heard your noble sect is seeking a way to cure the nine marvels undying medicine?”

Lu Yuan's gaze swept across the withered divine medicine below, finally landing on Li Changsheng, who had a terrified expression and was preparing to sneak away.

“Coincidentally, I know a thing or two about this.”

“And...”

The corners of Lu Yuan's mouth curled into a playful arc as he pointed at Li Changsheng.

“Besides wanting to gift the Holy Mother an Opportunity, I also want to conveniently help the Holy Mother expose a... certain swindler.”

Yaochi Holy Land, deep within the rosy clouds.

This was a spiritual island floating above the Nine Heavens, surrounded by Chaos spiritual mist that was almost tangible; every wisp of mist contained pure energy rarely found in the outside world.

In the center of the spiritual island was a medicinal field paved with Five-Colored Divine Soil, shining with divine light and thousands of streaks of auspicious Qi.

This was the most core Forbidden Ground of the Jade Pool. Normally, only the Holy Mother, a few core Grand Elders, and the Saintess were qualified to step foot here.

This was because within this medicinal field was planted that supreme divine object related to the Jade Pool's Luck and lifeblood—the nine marvels undying medicine.

At this moment, this normally silent Forbidden Ground was crowded with the higher-ups of the Jade Pool.

Everyone's gaze was tightly locked onto the green figure in the center of the medicinal field.

That was a middle-aged man with a plain appearance, surrounded by layers of Wood Element Green Qi, looking like a Wood God walking in the mortal world.

This person was none other than Li Changsheng, who had just caused a sensation in the Jade Pool.

As Li Changsheng struck out the last complex hand seal, a majestic and boundless life essence submerged into the originally withered and wilted divine medicine below, like a giant whale drinking water.

“Buzz!”

The Void Realm trembled, and a strange fragrance filled the air.

The nine marvels undying medicine, which had been losing its leaves and was at its last gasp, actually burst forth with brilliant green light under the nourishment of this power.

The withered yellow leaves turned green at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the shriveled branches became full and translucent again, as if a dead tree was meeting spring; a vitality so thick it couldn't be dispersed instantly swept across the entire spiritual island.

“It is done.”

Li Changsheng slowly withdrew his power, wiping away the non-existent cold sweat from his forehead and letting out a long sigh of relief.

He turned around, with a perfectly modest smile on his face, and cupped his hands in a salute to the Elders nearby.

“I have fortunately fulfilled the mission. This Junior has consumed the Wood Element Essence of thirty years of bitter cultivation to finally reverse the wilting condition of this nine marvels undying medicine.

Now that the divine medicine's vitality has been rekindled, it only needs to rest for a period of time to return to its Peak, and even bear divine fruit again.”
