Chapter 4: The Azure Yang Sect’s Desire to Survive

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

It was the new year and the bandits had to take a break. Therefore, Chen Mu’s trip was very smooth.

Two days later, he arrived at Flying Bull City, the capital of the Flying Bull Prefecture.

The Flying Bull Prefecture was one of the 24 prefectures of the Country Yan. It spanned thousands of miles and had 36 cities under it. There were also counties under the cities.

The Stone Village that Chen Mu stayed in was also within the Flying Bull Prefecture.

According to the information Chen Mu had obtained, the Azure Yang Mountain where the Azure Yang Sect was located was not far from Flying Bull City.

As a large sect with a thousand years of history, the Azure Yang Sect was definitely famous in Flying Bull City.

As long as he asked around, he should be able to find out the exact location.

Actually, it was not that he did not want to find a small sect to cultivate peacefully and not get involved in any calamity.

However, the cultivation world was too dangerous.

He had the Little Assistant, so his cultivation speed would definitely be very fast. In the eyes of other cultivators, it was hard not to make connections.

The consequences would be dire if he encountered an expert with evil intentions.

Furthermore, even if there were no bad guys, there were still many accidents in the cultivation world…

It was normal for him to die prematurely.

As someone destined to face the calamity, not to mention having a huge advantage in resources, just the fact that the Azure Yang Sect was protecting him throughout the journey was enough for him to take the risk.

As long as he could tide through the early stages safely, everything would be fine in the future.

…

Flying Bull City was the prefecture capital, and the city was bustling with people. It was not comparable to the county cities near Stone Village.

Chen Mu was walking on the street with a bag on his back. His long hair covered half his face.

In a big city like this, it was better to keep a low profile.

This was especially true for someone like him who did not look ordinary at all.

…

After strolling along the streets, Chen Mu finally arrived at a restaurant.

This restaurant was called the Immortal Gathering Pavilion, and it was five stories tall. The structure of the building was unique, and the renovation was extremely luxurious. Compared to the surrounding buildings, it was like a crane amongst chickens.

The restaurant was originally a place where information gathered, while this restaurant was also known as the Immortal Gathering Pavilion. Although he had yet to enter, he was quite certain of obtaining information about the Azure Yang Sect.

Entering the restaurant, an obedient-looking young lady dressed in simple and elegant clothes immediately welcomed him.

Seeing the professional smile on her face, Chen Mu knew that she was a service staff in the restaurant, so he casually said, “Just give me a few of your restaurant’s specialties.”

Indeed, he looked like he frequented high-end restaurants.

“Alright, esteemed guest, please come upstairs!” The elegant lady made an inviting gesture as she spoke.

Chen Mu nodded slightly and went upstairs slowly.

It had to be said that regardless of whether it was the interior style or the service staff, this Immortal Gathering Pavilion was quite professional.

If he really was born in Stone Village, when he first came to this type of place, he might be scared.

However, as a transmigrator, this place was only so-so in his eyes. Compared to the five-star hotels in his previous life, it was still a little lacking.

Chen Mu was brought to the second floor by the elegant woman. He chose a seat in the middle of the hall and sat down.

“Young Master, recently, our Immortal Gathering Pavilion has a new batch of spirit monster meat. Eating it can not only extend one’s lifespan, but also strengthen one’s potency!”

The elegant lady’s tone was calm and her expression was calm as though she was talking about something very normal.

Chen Mu was surprised.

He had done his homework before coming here.

Although Flying Bull City was a big city, it was still a mortal city after all. The spiritual energy was thin, and any cultivator with a bit of ambition would not stay in a mortal city at all.

As for spirit monsters, they had cultivation.

Even if Flying Bull City had the ability to kill spirit monsters, they would definitely treat them as treasures. How could they let the meat of the spirit monsters end up in a restaurant that anyone could enter, or even let mortals taste it?

The elegant lady noticed the change in Chen Mu’s expression and smiled sweetly, “You must have just arrived at our Flying Bull City, right?”

“You may not know this, but in previous years, our restaurant would definitely not have been able to obtain such precious ingredients like spirit monster meat.”

“But this year is different.”

“More than a month ago, the immortals of the Azure Yang Sect cleaned up the entire Azure Yang Mountain Range and killed hundreds of wild spirit monsters.”

“The immortals did not need so much spirit monster meat, so a large proportion went to the mortal world.”

“As the largest city closest to the Azure Yang Mountain, Flying Bull City naturally benefited greatly.”

“If the meat of the spirit monsters were to be stored for a long time, the spiritual energy would be lost. The high-ranking officials and nobles in the city could not digest so much meat in a short period of time, so they asked our restaurant to buy some.”

“Hehe, Sir, I dare to bet that we are the only restaurant in the nearby prefectures and cities that can provide spirit monster meat!”

At this point, the elegant woman’s expression turned extremely proud.

Hearing that she mentioned the Azure Yang Sect, this was exactly what Chen Mu wanted.

“I can actually have a chance to taste the flesh of a spirit monster. Looks like I came to the right place.”

After praising them, he continued, “Miss, to be honest, I am from another prefecture. I have long heard of the Azure Yang Sect’s name and am prepared to join them. However, I wonder… where exactly is the Azure Yang Sect?”

The elegant woman was not surprised.

Now that the day of the Azure Yang Sect’s recruitment was approaching, those who came to Flying Bull City and had the confidence to enter the Immortal Gathering Pavilion at this time were basically people seeking immortality.

“Young Master can just call me Xiao Lian.”

The elegant lady covered her mouth and chuckled before continuing, “Young Master, if it was in the past, I really could not tell which direction the Azure Yang Sect is located in.”

“After all, entering the Azure Yang Mountain Range was a long and arduous journey. One would lose their way if they were not careful.”

“But this year is different.”

At this point, Xiao Lian paused for a moment and deliberately kept him in suspense.

Chen Mu smiled faintly when he saw that. He immediately took out some silver fragments and placed them on the table.

This kind of service staff knew their position very well. For them, pleasing a future Immortal Cultivator was meaningless. It was more practical to earn more money.

Seeing the silver fragment, Xiao Lian’s eyes lit up and she hurriedly said, “Hehe, Young Master, no one expected this!”

“This year, the immortals of the Azure Yang Sect came out to build a road!”

“What they made was not an ordinary road, but a path that extended from the Azure Yang Sect to Flying Bull City! It is called the Immortal Seeking Path!”

“It’s more than 200 miles in length!”

“…A road of more than 200 miles!” Upon hearing this, Chen Mu vaguely understood something.

On the other hand, Xiao Lian continued, “Sigh, in the past few years, there would always be people seeking immortality who got lost on the road.”

“Some unlucky ones would encounter wild monsters and die without a complete corpse.”

“This year, Flying Bull City is directly connected to the Azure Yang Sect. Let alone a normal person, even a stupid donkey can successfully reach the Azure Yang Sect with its eyes closed.”

Chen Mu’s eyes twitched when he heard that.

Killing spirit monsters and building a road…

The Azure Yang Sect’s true intentions were very obvious.

The person who could resist the calamity would go to the Azure Yang Sect this year. They were also afraid of accidents happening halfway.

What if that person got lost and did not want to come to the Azure Yang Sect?

What if he was eaten by some stupid spirit monster?

Therefore, they killed the spirit monsters and built roads.

From the entire process, one word could be seen!

Dependable!

“This strong desire to live… Azure Yang Sect, hehe, interesting.” Chen Mu laughed inwardly.

“Young Master, do you want to order spirit monster meat?” Xiao Lian asked cautiously.

Chen Mu was in a good mood after hearing about the Azure Yang Sect. He immediately replied, “Give me a serving!”

“Alright, I’ll arrange for someone to prepare it now!”

After Xiao Lian left, Chen Mu realized that the customers around him were all talking about the Azure Yang Sect.

“I just went to take a look at the Immortal Seeking Path. What a huge investment!”

“The Azure Yang Sect is indeed worthy of being one of the great sects of the Flying Bull Prefecture. They knew that it was not easy for us to seek immortality and were willing to show us mercy!”

“Yeah, the other sects are not so approachable!”

“For our Fire Cloud Prefecture’s Fire Spirit Sect, even if you have the talent, you will have to go through many difficulties and ordeals if you want to reach the sect!”

“As far as I know, dozens of people die on the road every year!”

“So be it if the people from the Fire Spirit Sect didn’t sympathize with them, but they even said that the dead ones lack immortal affinity!”

“It’s fine if we don’t go to such a sect. Brother Wang, it’s right for you to come to our Flying Bull Prefecture!”

That Wang guy seemed to be drunk. As he spoke, he actually started crying.

“Sob, I think my brother died on the way back then…”

“The Fire Spirit Sect… hmph!”

“It ignored me now, but I will definitely make it unable to even look up to me in the future!”

“When I become a Foundation Establishment Realm Immortal, I will definitely go to the Fire Spirit Sect and ask them if they regretted it…”

A few people who were still conscious quickly consoled him, “Brother Wang, don’t talk nonsense…”

“Too small! The Fire Spirit Sect’s vision is too small!”

“Yes, yes, yes! They have no vision! They have no foresight! They’re too ignorant!”

“I will not dare to forget the kindness of the Azure Yang Sect!”

“Brother Li, I was born a member of the Azure Yang Sect, and I will die a ghost of the Azure Yang Sect!”

“Sob sob…”

…

Hearing these discussions, Chen Mu smiled lightly.

These people were thinking too much.

However, there was one thing to note. The person to face the calamity had not arrived yet, but the Azure Yang Sect had already expended so much energy.

If he really entered the Azure Yang Sect, wouldn’t he be worshiped like a grand ancestor?

At that thought, Chen Mu’s heart burned with passion.

Knock him out!

He must knock the person unconscious!

Whoever dared to compete with him would be knocked out!
