Li Qingshan walked into the Gate of Immortality and immediately felt his vision go black as if he was plummeting infinitely. In less than three seconds, the darkness gave way to a bright expanse, with dense Immortal Energy assaulting his face.
Li Qingshan opened his eyes and looked at the new world.
Immortal Plane!
The ultimate aspiration for cultivators in the Human World, the legendary supreme Immortal Plane.
In the legends of the Human World, Immortal traveled the Northern Sea in the morning and Cangwu in the evening. They could be said to be the model of elegance.
However, Li Qingshan knew that it was just the Immortal Plane in the imagination of the Human World cultivators.
The real Immortal Plane was vastly different from the world they imagined. It could be said to be the difference between ideal and reality.
There were many experts in the Immortal World, and some of them could travel the Northern Sea Sea in the morning and Cangwu in the evening. However, such postures were only achievable by strong individuals. Ordinary immortals needed to put in a lot of effort to establish themselves in the Immortal Plane.
The Immortal Plane was vast and not easy to inhabit!
This was the real Immortal Plane.
Li Qingshan opened his eyes and found himself in the center of a complicated teleportation formation. Before him stood a colossal city wall, towering into the clouds. The black city wall was covered with all kinds of formation patterns, appearing intimidating.
“This city wall is carved with a defensive formation!” Li Qingshan recognized it immediately.
His top-notch knowledge of formations in the Human World was no joke.
Although he didn’t know what kind of defensive formation it was, and some parts were too complicated for him to understand, Li Qingshan still recognized it.
He turned around and saw a massive city, even larger than Chang’an City where Li Qingshan had previously resided.
Furthermore, this city was engraved with formations everywhere. The people inside were generally in the Immortal Plane. Most of them were in the Human Immortal Realm like Li Qingshan.
Li Qingshan stood in the center of the teleportation formation and heard the soldiers discussing.
“Why would someone come to Emperor’s Pass at this time? Can’t they think
straight?”
“Yeah, the teleportation formation at the Emperor’s Pass now only allows entry and not exit. I never expected someone to come here.”
“He must have gone crazy thinking about the military merit, right?”
“Military merits? He is just a Human Immortal, and he has just entered the Human Immortal Realm. What military merit could he achieve? Once the defensive battle at the Emperor’s Pas starts, he will be nothing but cannon fodder.’
“Yeah, what is he thinking?”
The soldiers guarding the city gate chatted without hiding anything, so Li Qingshan could hear them clearly.
Li Qingshan’s heart skipped a beat. It seemed that the beginning of his arrival in the Immortal Plane wasn’t a friendly one.
This city was called the Emperor’s Pass. It seemed like a great battle was about to break out here. The teleportation formation had been altered to only allow entry not exit.
These soldiers were surprised that Li Qingshan had come to the Emperor’s Pass, seemingly to meet his death.
Li Qingshan felt helpless. He didn’t want to come here either, but the Gate of Immortality in the Human World randomly teleported people to various major cities under the Celestial Court.
Since he ended up here, what could he do?
Li Qingshan walked out of the teleportation formation and ignored the soldiers. He walked straight to the official residence of the Celestial Court in the center of the city.
He remembered Immortal Northstar mentioning that upon entering the city, he should find the local Celestial Court official, explain his origin, and receive a thousand Immortal Crystals. Additionally, he could gain entry to the Celestial Court.
There were very few commoners in this city called Emperor’s Pass. The streets were filled with soldiers. Some were cultivating, while others were chatting…
The soldiers were all in the Human Immortal Realm. They looked at Li
Qingshan with strange expressions, noting the stark contrast in their attire. One look and they knew that he was a newcomer. Just like the soldiers at the teleportation formation, they were also very surprised. They didn’t expect that someone would come to the Emperor’s Pass at this time.
Li Qingshan walked to the central mansion under countless strange gazes. The door was wide open. No soldiers were guarding it, so he could enter and exit as he pleased.
Li Qingshan walked in and shouted, “Is anyone there?”
A middle-aged general walked out of the mansion. He was huge and wore Immortal armor. His face was cold and his demeanor was calm. When he saw Li Qingshan, he looked at him carefully and asked in surprise, “Are you new here?”
Li Qingshan nodded.
“You really have the guts to come to the Emperor’s Pass at this moment.” The general smiled.
Li Qingshan frowned and said, “I’m not from the Immortal Plane.”
The general looked puzzled and asked, “If you’re not from the Immortal Plane, then where are you from?”
Li Qingshan couldn’t see through the general’s cultivation level, but he was neither humble nor overbearing. He spoke frankly, “The Human World!”
The general raised his eyebrows and scrutinized Li Qingshan carefully. He asked, “Are you a cultivator from the Human World? Is this your first time in the Immortal Plane?”
Li Qingshan nodded and said, “I pushed open the Gate of Immortality from the
Human World and came to this city.”
In case the general didn’t believe him, Li Qingshan even displayed the spiritual Qi within him.
As soon as the spiritual Qi emerged, the general immediately smiled. Looking at Li Qingshan, the wariness in his eyes disappeared, and he said in a relaxed manner, “What a rare guest. It has been many years since a Human World cultivator has come to my 81st Imperial Pass.”
Li Qingshan directly stated his purpose. He thought that since this man was a general, he wouldn’t like beating around the bush. He said, “This is my first time here and I don’t know anything about the Immortal Plane. I’ve read some records in the Human World, mentioning that newcomers entering the Immortal Plane should come to the Celestial Court for registration. In return, they’ll receive a thousand Immortal Crystals. So, here I am.”
The general nodded and said, “You’re right. The Celestial Court has a rule that we have to take care of the Human World cultivators who have just entered the Immortal Plane. We provide a thousand Immortal Crystals and give you a choice. You can choose to venture outside on your own or join the Celestial Court, where we’ll assign you a task.”
“Unfortunately, you came to the wrong place.” The general sighed.
“Why?” Li Qingshan asked in confusion.
“Since I’m free today, it’s been many tens of thousands of years since we’ve encountered a cultivator from the Human World. I’d like to have a chat with you.” The general invited Li Qingshan to sit down. His attitude was gentle and didn’t have the arrogance of an Immortal Plane expert, which made Li
Qingshan feel comfortable..
