Li Cheng’s vision shifted, and when it stabilized, he found himself on a Floating Peak.

“To enter the Divine Palace Region, strict registration is required. An identity token must be created before leaving the Floating Peak!”

As soon as his figure appeared on the Transmission Array, a voice like rolling thunder reached Li Cheng’s ears.

Li Cheng turned his head and saw that this Floating Peak was equipped with hundreds of Transmission Arrays, each actively operating.

“Immortal Monarch, this way please!”

Not far away, a youth behind a registration desk gestured with clasped hands.

To the youth, the arrival of an Immortal Monarch at the Divine Palace Region was nothing unusual, and he started passionately explaining.

There were more than ten such registration desks, and Li Cheng noticed that all the staff responsible for registration were Golden Immortals!

This made Li Cheng rather puzzled; given that the Kunlun Realm had not long resurrected, for the Divine Palace Region to assign so many Golden Immortals to such trivial tasks suggested either the Divine Palace Region indeed had an abundance of strong individuals, where Golden Immortals were nothing special,

or that the Divine Palace Region was doing it on purpose, to give outsiders the impression that it was unimaginably powerful.

“An identity token costs a thousand Immortal Stones, and the map of the Divine Palace Region costs three thousand Immortal Stones. These purchases are mandatory. You may choose others at will; everything is listed here. Please have a look, Immortal Monarch!” the Golden Immortal introduced with neither humility nor arrogance, handing over a Jade Slip.

Li Cheng took the Jade Slip and checked it over, realizing that to leave the Floating Peak, he must pay four thousand Immortal Stones.

The content in the Jade Slip detailed the power divisions and administrative modes of the Divine Palace Region, which was similarly divided into eighteen mansions, each with one hundred and eight domains under their jurisdiction, governed by the Divine Palace.

This was the same model as in the South Mysterious Territory, except that the lords of the Divine Palace were Immortal Emperors, and there were ten Immortal Emperor-level beings among the high ranks, and that was just the apparent rulers.

After finishing with the Jade Slip, Li Cheng said, “I’ll exchange it for Immortal Pills of equivalent value, then!”

Li Cheng had long since exhausted his supply of Immortal Stones, but fortunately, he had crafted quite a few Immortal Pills in recent days.

The Golden Immortal was overjoyed, immediately starting to tally up according to the grades, qualities, and other conditions recorded in the Jade Slip.

Soon enough, the identity token and map were in his hands.

“Immortal Monarch, which mansion and domain would you like to visit? You can take the Transmission Array there, it only requires a thousand Immortal Stones, or something of equivalent value,” asked the Golden Immortal with a broad smile on his face.

Li Cheng shook his head, “I’ll wander around, no need for the Transmission Array.”

Without waiting for the Golden Immortal to pitch anything else, Li Cheng already had the identity token attached to his waist and had flown out of the Floating Peak; his figure flickered and vanished from the Golden Immortal’s view.

“This Immortal Monarch casually took out a third-grade top-quality Immortal Pill, he must be loaded with wealth, such a shame…” the Golden Immortal mumbled to himself, shaking his head with endless sighs.

Li Cheng had taken only a hundred steps when, suddenly, a Sky-reaching Road appeared before him, identical to the one he had seen before.

And here at the entrance to the Sky-reaching Road, many strong beings from the Divine Palace were guarding, apparently collecting what they called a ‘toll’!

“Whoever created the Divine Palace, just the astronomical toll revenue from the Transmission Array must be staggering,” Li Cheng said softly to himself, looking at the Sky-reaching Road.

“Forget those useless things; quickly sense around to see if the other half of the Fire Mysterious Realm is here, and the Pen of Life and Death as well,” Immortal Emperor Tianyuan said.

Li Cheng nodded, “No rush, we’ve got a tail following us. Let’s take care of that first.”

Despite having employed the Immortal Spirit Step to dash a hundred steps away, Li Cheng could clearly sense someone was tracking him.

The pursuer’s breath was extremely well-concealed. Li Cheng could detect it thanks only to the power of Law.

“Don’t flaunt wealth; your payment with Immortal Pills has aroused someone’s greed, though it’s just a mid-stage Immortal King,” Immortal Emperor Tianyuan chuckled.

An Immortal King keeping an eye on me, an Immortal Monarch, that’s quite the audacity…”

Li Cheng did not linger, and continued onward. After a few uses of Immortal Spirit Step, he landed amidst a mountain range.

Before long, a middle-aged man hurried over. Seeing Li Cheng standing with his hands behind his back at the mountain summit, he hesitated slightly but still flew towards him.

His figure had not yet arrived when his voice carried over, “May I ask if this fellow Daoist is a Pill Master?”

Oh? Li Cheng was somewhat puzzled.

He had thought someone was coming to rob him, but maybe not?

“Fellow Daoist, please don’t misunderstand. 1 noticed that the pills you produced casually are all top-grade Immortal Pills, so I specifically followed to inquire and wish to invite Fellow Daoist to lend a helping hand,” the middle-aged man continued to speak.

Li Cheng sized up the man briefly and asked, “You want me to help you with alchemy?”

The middle-aged man shook his head, cupped his hands together, and said, “No, I wish to invite Fellow Daoist to be a guest elder of our sect and help our sect participate in the Alchemy Dao Conference.”

“Right, I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Bai Xian, from the Wordless Sect of Lower Realm People.”

Bai Xian? Wordless Sect?

Li Cheng pondered, “The Jade Slip given by the Divine Palace earlier didn’t have any record of the Wordless Sect.”

Bai Xian sighed helplessly, “I’m not afraid to be laughed at by Fellow Daoist. My Wordless Sect was once a top-notch large sect in the Divine Palace Region. Now, I’m afraid we can’t even count as a third-rate sect!”

Li Cheng’s expression remained calm. Since they couldn’t even count as a third-rate sect, he still dared to mention it out loud?

Normally speaking, after saying something like that, who would agree to his request?

Li Cheng presumed Bai Xian had other plans in mind.

“Exactly, that’s why my Wordless Sect wishes to earn a ranking in this Alchemy Dao Conference. With the revival of Kunlun Realm today, we intend to compete for some powerful individuals to join the Wordless Sect.”

With the revival of the Kunlun Realm, countless Ancient Ruins emerged, naturally attracting many unaffiliated powerful individuals. Bai Xian planned to recruit these people to strengthen the Wordless Sect.

Yet Li Cheng had no interest.

Shaking his head, Li Cheng cupped his fists and said, “I have important matters to attend to and am afraid I must apologize!”

“Fellow Daoist, please listen to me first. It’s like this, my Wordless Sect was once a first-rate large sect, established on the principles of the Wordless Heavenly Scripture!”

“As long as Fellow Daoist can help the Wordless Sect secure a top hundred ranking, I, Bai Xian, swear that I will definitely allow Fellow Daoist to study the Wordless Heavenly Scripture for a while!”

Bai Xian’s face was full of earnestness.

Li Cheng was skeptical, “The Wordless Heavenly Scripture is one of the ten great mysterious scriptures. To my knowledge, it is not in your sect but in the Immortal World.”

Bai Xian shook his head, “Originally the Wordless Heavenly Scripture fell into the Immortal World, which is why my Wordless Sect declined. Since then, countless generations of my Wordless Sect have been searching for the Wordless Heavenly Scripture, and we have finally found some clues.”

Li Cheng laughed, “In other words, the Wordless Heavenly Scripture is not in your sect, and at most you just know the whereabouts of the Wordless Heavenly Scripture!”

“In that case, even if I win a ranking in the Alchemy Dao Conference, you won’t be able to present the Wordless Heavenly Scripture for me to study, right?”

Bai Xian still shook his head, “If I, Bai Xian, dare to make such an oath, I can naturally allow Fellow Daoist to study the Wordless Heavenly Scripture, for at least a month. The specific time depends on the ranking Fellow Daoist achieves, how about it?”

“Li Cheng, agree to him!” Immortal Emperor Tianyuan transmitted his voice.

Li Cheng was somewhat puzzled; could it be that Immortal Emperor Tianyuan also knew something?

After briefly pondering, Li Cheng looked towards Bai Xian, “What if I secure first place?”

Upon hearing this, Bai Xian raised his eyebrows. Li Cheng’s confidence meant that he had likely found the right person!

But if it was first place…

Bai Xian began to contemplate, what should he offer?
