446: Chapter 446 White Immortal City
Immortal Realm, Baixian City.
This was an incredibly majestic giant city, straddling the star river, boundless and magnificent, with stars revolving around its walls.
Tens of thousands of Immortal ships, like a school of carp crossing a river, broke through the star clouds and surged into the city.
The city towers connected heaven and earth, their pressure spanning across the Star Domain, displaying supreme Immortal might.
"My goodness... is this where the grand competition is held?"
"Fairy! Is this the Baixian City you mentioned? It's way too big, isn't it?"
"A giant city built in the center of the Universe, even larger than a Star Domain..."
"What a grand undertaking... is this where Immortals live?"
Aboard the Immortal ships, many beings cried out in astonishment.
Lin Ziyao and Ye Hongfu raised their eyebrows.
They looked at each other and whispered, "This grandeur is exactly like the Imperial City of the Emperors Path."
"It seems to be modeled after the Imperial City... it's too similar."
"True! The so-called Immortal Lord is extremely powerful; it's normal for him to have walked the Emperors Path."
As the two conversed, Qin Wushang listened and looked at the majestic city, feeling shocked as well.
"It really is huge..."
"An Immortal civilization... even if the so-called Immortal Realm is full of 'fake' Immortals, it's still extraordinary."
Qin Wushang murmured softly.
"Everyone! This is Baixian City... the place where the grand competition will be held!"
"As for the specific details of participation, that depends on the arrangements from above. Now, prepare to disembark."
"Inside Baixian City, you may only fly at low altitudes. Do not exceed the height limit, or you will be seized by the White Immortal Guards, and your only fate then will be to work in the mines."
Xu Qinghe shouted loudly.
Everyone nodded hurriedly, watching the Immortal ship slowly descend.
The moment the Immortal ship landed, everyone disembarked and sped away through the air, vanishing from sight.
Qin Wushang followed them down, frowning as he looked up at the city gates, the top of which was nowhere in sight.
"Where should I go next?"
He whispered, unsure of his destination.
He was a stranger in a strange land and knew few people. Although his Revered Master and the others had followed him up the Immortal Stairs, their exit points seemed different, and they hadn't appeared for a long time.
"They're here!"
His heart stirred slightly as he sensed his Clone rapidly approaching.
An Immortal ship cut through the sky and slowly landed, its deck crowded with Cultivators.
"Brother Wushang!"
Lin Ziyao was the first to look up, calling out in a crisp voice.
"Junior Brother!"
Ye Hongfu spoke up as well.
Qin Wushang gave a faint glance but did not step forward.
He had no intention of performing a Fusion with his Clone for the time being. Traveling alone as the Demon Son was more comfortable.
He then turned around and followed Xu Qinghe's group into Baixian City.
Baixian City was far more majestic and vast than he had imagined.
Cultivators in the city were packed shoulder to shoulder, their cultivation levels varying. Beings from the Human Race, Yao Race, and Ancient Race came and went incessantly, with various colored streaks of light darting through the streets and alleys.
Xu Qinghe led the way while introducing the place.
"The city is filled with markets. immortal medicines, Immortal materials, and Immortal Artifacts can be seen everywhere. Cultivators from all domains come here to trade, and many ancient forces have established outposts here..."
"Remember, do not easily cause trouble, or even I won't be able to protect you!"
After a pause, she continued, "The Immortal Realm grand competition officially begins in three days."
"You are all invited guests. As hosts, we have arranged for you to stay at the Baixian Tower, where you can stay for free."
"However, the cultivation Secret Realms, Immortal Spring Immortal Caves, and various Heaven And Earth Treasures within the tower still require Immortal Crystals or equivalent treasures for exchange."
After speaking, she pointed to a tall building in the distance that pierced through the star clouds.
That was the Baixian Tower.
"Young Master, you are new here. Would you like me to show you around?"
Xu Qinghe took the initiative to ask.
The reason she had introduced the place to the others directly was that she didn't want to keep leading them.
If it weren't for Qin Wushang, she would have left as soon as they got off the Immortal ship.
In fact, she wouldn't even have shared the same ship with those people.
"By the way... you must have a name. There shouldn't be a name like 'Demon Son' in this world."
She added, walking toward Qin Wushang.
"A name... they all call me Demon Son, but that was from a long, long time ago."
"As for a name, I am called Mo Cang."
"Where does Fairy Xu intend to take me for a stroll?"
Qin Wushang made up a name on the spot.
"Mo as a surname... you truly are from an ancient race, a Prodigy of the True Demon Clan?"
Xu Qinghe was very surprised.
The True Demon Clan was recorded even in the Immortal Realm.
They were once the strongest race in the Immortal Realm.
"Yes."
"And what about Fairy Xu? Are you a native inhabitant of the Immortal Realm?"
Qin Wushang asked.
"I suppose so..."
"My father is an Immortal King expert. He came to the Immortal Realm by passing its trials, met my mother, and then I was born."
"Since I was born here, I am considered a native inhabitant."
Xu Qinghe nodded.
The two walked side by side, weaving through the bustling streets.
"Actually... we are just like you; our talent and such might even be inferior to yours."
"The True Demon Clan... according to records, has existed for an extremely long time and was the overlord of the Immortal Realm."
"You are the truly noble race. We and those from the Five Regions and Two Heavens... are actually not that different. Some of them even have better talent than us."
Xu Qinghe said slowly.
This was the reason she had been trying to get close to Qin Wushang.
The True Demon Clan!
That ancient race's Bloodline must be formidable.
If her father knew she had found such a partner, he would surely be pleased.
It would be best if she could give birth to a Prodigy with a powerful True Demon Bloodline for their family.
"It's all much the same. All things in the world are born equal."
"The Heavenly Dao is fair."
"It allows for lesser talent, but luck won't be too bad. If both are bad... then one must have committed sins in a past life."
Qin Wushang nodded and said no more.
"That's not right... then wouldn't someone with both good talent and good luck have brought blessings to all living beings in their past life?"
"But that Qin Wushang doesn't look like someone who blessed the world at all!"
"No matter how you look at it, he seems like a menace."
Xu Qinghe spoke bluntly.
Her words caused Qin Wushang's mouth to twitch.
Damn it!
If you want to curse someone, go hide in your room and do it!
Cursing me to my face, what the hell is this!
"You dislike him that much?"
Qin Wushang couldn't help but ask.
"Yes."
"We saw his good talent and thought of recruiting him into the Immortal Realm."
"Who knew he would be so ungrateful?"
"We are descendants of Immortals, yet he, a native of the Lower Realm, dared to refuse us?"
"Our invitation was a sign of respect; he should have accepted it with a flattering smile."
As Xu Qinghe spoke, her chest heaved with indignation.
Thinking back to what happened in the Desolate Ancient Great World, she was still very angry.
"Then have you ever considered that everyone has a different way of cultivation?"
"For example, I wouldn't join any force in your Immortal Realm either."
"It's not that I look down on you, but your Dao is not what I seek."
Qin Wushang said.
The Dao of the Immortal Realm was not the true Immortal Dao he sought.
It was never about looking down on others; it was a conflict of Great Daos.
"This... this is different... You are of the True Demon Clan with a powerful Bloodline."
"He is just a lowly being from the Lower Realm."
Xu Qinghe quickly argued.
In her eyes, it was fundamentally different.
Qin Wushang couldn't be bothered to argue further. He continued walking, sighing inwardly, 'People are just like this. Even as descendants of Immortals, they still fawn over the powerful and look down on the weak.'
When you are successful enough, even if you are picking up trash, people will gawk and say you are just experiencing life.
If you are successful enough and actually go to pick up trash, even a passing dog would spit on you.
"Fairy Qinghe!!!"
