The Mortal's Path to Immortality

In the market, Black Mountain Patriarch quietly watched Shi Shatian's live broadcast, his expression calm and focused.

Cao Rui, who was standing beside him, accompanied him silently. Neither of them spoke, and the atmosphere was harmonious.

After the live broadcast, Black Mountain Patriarch was silent for a moment, and then slowly said: "Master Cao, I want to visit Yunzhou alone, for a short day or a long few days, and then come back to meet you."

Cao Rui was slightly stunned, but soon understood Black Mountain Patriarch's intention, smiled and nodded, "Of course, please feel free to do so, Senior Black Mountain."

A trace of gratitude flashed in Black Mountain Patriarch's eyes. The reason why he made this request was because he wanted to personally experience the great changes that the Lingyin Jade Pendant brought to Yunzhou.

"Thank you very much, Master Cao." Black Mountain Patriarch stood up and bowed to Cao Rui to thank him.

Cao Rui also stood up and said in return: "Senior Heishan is very polite. If you need anything, just let me know."

"If you don't mind, I will invite you to serve as a guest elder of the Spirit Beast Sect. In this way, you can enter and leave the Spirit Beast Sect on your own and use the transmission point of the Spirit Beast Sect to return to Heishan on your own."

After hearing this, Heishan Patriarch nodded and said: "It is my honor to be a guest elder of the Spirit Beast Sect. I am very grateful to Master Cao. However, please don't call me senior anymore! We are all members of the Pure World, so let's treat each other as peers!"

Heishan Patriarch said this from the bottom of his heart. He felt that with Cao Rui's attainments in formation, he could completely treat him as a peer.

After hearing this, Cao Rui no longer insisted: "In this case, then Daoist Fellow Heishan, I will drag you into the Spirit Beast Sect group chat."

"Hmm? What is a group chat?" Heishan Patriarch asked with some confusion.

Cao Rui explained: "Group chat is a way to facilitate communication. It allows us to keep abreast of each other's situation and share information and resources."

The group chat function is currently a hidden function. Only Cao Rui has enabled this function in the Loose Cultivator Alliance and the Spirit Beast Sect.

So when Heishan Patriarch played with the Lingyin Jade Pendant before, he naturally had not come into contact with this function, so he was not familiar with it.

So Cao Rui took the opportunity to introduce the basic situation of the Spirit Beast Sect to Heishan Patriarch and gave him the identity of a guest elder of the Spirit Beast Sect.

Then, he opened the Spirit Beast Sect group chat interface, clicked the button to add members, entered the name of Heishan Patriarch, and finally clicked OK to successfully add Heishan Patriarch to the Spirit Beast Sect group chat.

He didn't say much and sent the invitation directly.

Heishan Patriarch took out the Lingyin Jade Pendant, and after clicking Agree, he found that there was an additional option on the jade pendant.

Slightly sensing, it was displayed on it that it was the 'Spirit Beast Sect High-level Group Chat'.

After Cao Rui finished the invitation, he sent a voice message to the group chat: "Everyone, elders, welcome Heishan Patriarch to join the Spirit Beast Sect and become a guest elder of the Spirit Beast Sect!"

"Heishan Patriarch is a Yuanying cultivator from Shengzhou! This time he came to Yunzhou to travel for a few days."

As soon as Cao Rui's voice was sent out, it exploded in the group chat like hot oil in water.

A Yuanying cultivator is going to become a guest elder of the sect? This kind of thing is simply unheard of and makes people feel a little unrealistic.

However, while everyone was talking about it, Heishan Patriarch also imitated Cao Rui and sent a voice message in the group: "Everyone, I, Heishan, will be a guest elder of the Spirit Beast Sect in the future."

He also took a photo of himself and set it as the avatar of the group chat.

This move gave everyone a more intuitive understanding of his identity.

With Heishan Patriarch's self-introduction, messages in the group chat emerged like a tide.

"Welcome Elder Heishan!", "Hello, Elder Heishan!" and other greetings came one after another.

Looking at these enthusiastic messages, Heishan Patriarch felt very novel and interesting.

He had never thought that there would be such a way of communication, that he could interact with so many people instantly through a small magic tool in his hand.

Then, Cao Rui took out a token of the elder of the Spirit Beast Sect and handed it to Heishan Patriarch, saying: "This is the token of the elder of the Spirit Beast Sect, which allows you to enter and exit the mountain gate formation of the Spirit Beast Sect freely."

This token was refined by Cao Rui on the spot, and it was engraved with the unique rune mark of the Spirit Beast Sect.

Although for the Nascent Soul cultivators, the mountain gate formation of the Spirit Beast Sect does not constitute a real obstacle.

But we can't let the Nascent Soul cultivators destroy the formation facilities of the sect every time they enter and exit.

The Black Mountain Patriarch took the token and nodded slightly: "In this case, Master Cao, I will go around Yunzhou first."

"Then I will not accompany you for long. I will come to the Spirit Beast Sect next time to welcome you, the new elder." Cao Rui said.

Then he watched the Black Mountain Patriarch leave.

"I don't know how Tianji Baby and Zhang Heng and others are preparing in Shengzhou."

Earlier, Cao Rui asked them to go to Shengzhou through the teleportation array shortly after the live broadcast started.

Counting the days, there are also a few days.

Through the Lingyin Jade Pendant, Cao Rui contacted Zhang Heng.

On the first day, Zhang Heng arranged signal towers along the way between Luojia and Haiyuefang Market.

"Huh? Put in solitary confinement?" The Lingyin Jade Pendant sent Zhang Heng's text reply. Cao Rui looked a little weird after reading it.

......

But Zhang Heng and others were one step ahead of Zhang Mo and others.

After they arrived at Luojia in Shengzhou through the teleportation array, they developed freely according to the original plan.

Zhang Heng led a group of members of the Loose Cultivators Alliance and chose a bold plan: to establish the headquarters of the Loose Cultivators Alliance in Haiyue Xiuxianfang City.

So, Zhang Heng led his men without hesitation, bought a store in the most prosperous area of ​​Haiyue Market with a large sum of money, and quickly took action.

On the second day, he vigorously promoted the purpose and concept of the Loose Cultivator Alliance in the market.

This move immediately attracted the attention and enthusiastic response of many loose cultivators in the market.

On the same day, a large number of loose cultivators joined the Loose Cultivator Alliance.

However, all this did not escape the eyes of the three major sects in the market.

Haiyue Market is a large market jointly established by the three major sects in Shengzhou - Yunyin Sect, Hailan Sect and Lanyue Sect.

These sects will naturally not tolerate any existence that threatens their interests.

When they learned about this Loose Cultivator Alliance that suddenly appeared, they quickly became vigilant.

After an in-depth investigation, they found that this Loose Cultivator Alliance seemed to have huge wealth, but there was no strong force behind it, as if it appeared out of thin air.

Regardless of whether the other party has the support of a force behind it, they can find out their details with a little probing.

Therefore, on the third day, the joint guards of the market began to find trouble with the Loose Cultivator Alliance: seal up the store! The Loose Cultivator Alliance is forbidden to carry out propaganda!

Zhang Heng himself was taken directly to the headquarters of the market and talked face to face with the owner of the market.

"Zhang Heng, right? Tell me about the origin of your Loose Cultivator Alliance." The owner of Haiyue Market said lightly.

He is a Jindan cultivator from the Blue Moon Sect, named Xu Yao.

Zhang Heng is an old man in the world of loose cultivators. When asked, he looked confused, pretending to be stupid and ignorant.

"Hehe, we have received news, Luo family, right?" Xu Yao suddenly sneered, "Did the originally declining Luo family cooperate with you?"

"Are you, are you cultivators from Shengzhou?" As a Jindan cultivator, Xu Yao is meticulous. Based on the information he has obtained, he has guessed that Zhang Heng and others may not be cultivators from Shengzhou.

"If you don't answer clearly, I will go to the Luo family in person and find out the real information." Xu Yao threatened in a firm tone.
