The Earth won't allow someone as awesome as me to exist!

When Zhang Li heard this, he couldn't help but choke for a moment.

What kind of feeling is this?

Completely disregarded, even ignored...

Zhang Li has dominated the Daoist world for a hundred years; when has he ever been looked down upon like this?

However, Zhang Li also knew that Qin Chuan's strength should not be underestimated. Even if they were on Huanglong Mountain, defeating Qin Chuan would not be an easy task.

But the other party's request... is really too rude.

To claim that going up the mountain means taking up the entire Huanglong Mountain is too domineering and arrogant.

The five Taoist priests became somewhat anxious.

"Immortal Master, isn't this Immortal Qin utterly disrespectful to us?"

"Yes, now that you've shown up, are you still afraid of him?"

"At worst, we'll activate the Hunyuan Formation. I refuse to believe that even the Hunyuan Formation can't subdue him!"

"..."

Qin Chuan is now pressing us relentlessly. If we back down now, it would be tantamount to handing over the entire Huanglong Mountain.

This was unacceptable to the five Taoist priests.

Not to mention them, even Zhang Li couldn't accept it, but activating the Hunyuan Formation was obviously too risky.

"Qin Xian..."

Zhang Li took a deep breath: "The Huanglong Mountain Daoist Court was developed by our Daoist sect, and we know we are no match for you. How about this..."

"You may take all the medicinal herbs on Huanglong Mountain. We only hope that you can let us stay on Huanglong Mountain until the day you have used them enough. We hope that you will return Huanglong Mountain to us."

These words were spoken.

Everyone in the room turned pale.

Because no one expected that the deity in everyone's hearts would actually bow down on his own accord...

"Even the Immortal Master is no match for that Immortal Qin?" Xu Qing's expression became somewhat dazed.

What was expected to be an epic battle turned out to be unexpectedly decided by the legendary immortal who took a step back.

Other wealthy individuals and martial artists felt their beliefs crumble.

Is this all the gods they admire?

Although Qin Chuan is famous throughout the world, the immortals of Huanglong Mountain are gods. No matter how strong Qin Chuan is, can gods be afraid of him?

The five Taoist priests were all greatly shocked.

"Immortal Master..."

"How can you bow your head?"

They all don't understand.

Zhang Li waved his hand, not giving them a chance to speak, and stared intently at Qin Chuan.

"Qin Xian, please give us a way to live."

No matter how much people didn't understand, Zhang Li remained obstinate and even started pleading.

Qin Chuan squinted at Zhang Li for a moment, then smiled and said, "In that case, I won't make things difficult for you."

Ignoring Zhang Li and the others, Qin Chuan led Xie Lingyao up the mountain.

At the top of the mountain, there is a large palace with the words "Immortal Palace" written on it.

Xie Lingyao couldn't help but say, "It seems that the people of the Huanglong Mountain Taoist Temple really think of themselves as immortals, and have even built a celestial palace."

Qin Chuan wasn't too surprised: "The ultimate goal of cultivators is to become immortals. It's just a pity that they don't know that true immortals are something they can never reach in this lifetime."

"Mr. Qin, you... know about immortals?" Xie Lingyao asked in surprise.

"Immortal..."

Qin Chuan murmured something, then looked up at the Immortal Palace. His gaze pierced through the swirling clouds, and there seemed to be a path to immortality in the sky.

The Great Way is formless, yet it stretches across the heavens and earth.

When mortals possess spiritual roots, they can train their muscles and bones, refine their qi and blood, and draw spiritual energy from heaven and earth into their bodies, thus entering the Qi Refining stage.

Shedding the mortal body, severing worldly roots, building the foundation of the Dao, drawing the dantian to generate the sea, one can achieve longevity and glimpse a corner of the world—this is foundation building.

Further on, one can reach the Golden Core stage, condense the Nascent Soul, and transform the spirit into an astral body. The divine soul can roam outside the physical body, exploring the world, and can move mountains and fill seas with a wave of the hand.

Even so, this is merely the beginning of the path to immortality...

Countless cultivators dedicate their entire lives to arduous cultivation, vying for opportunities and seizing destiny, fighting fiercely in the mortal world, exhausting hundreds or thousands of years of their lives, all in pursuit of nothing more than the word "immortality."

Even cultivators yearn for immortality but cannot attain it, let alone ordinary martial artists on Earth.

Qin Chuan withdrew his thoughts, glanced at the so-called Immortal Palace, and said with some disdain, "True immortals seize the secrets of heaven and defy the universe. They are above the Heavenly Dao and possess the supreme Dao. These people from the Yellow Dragon Mountain Dao Court have not even touched the threshold of the Dao. An Immortal Palace is nothing but self-deception."

Xie Lingyao was suddenly stunned. She suddenly felt that Qin Chuan at this moment did not seem like a young man in his early twenties, but rather like an old monster who had experienced vicissitudes, cultivated for a hundred years, and fought his way out of the mortal world...

"Qin Xian...do you know anything about the path to immortality?"

Just then, after hearing Qin Chuan's evaluation of his group, Zhang Li couldn't help but ask.

Cultivating the Tao, cultivating the Tao, is cultivating the path to immortality.

Who wouldn't want to ascend to immortality?

The cultivation methods practiced by the Taoist temple are quite special, allowing practitioners to break through their own cultivation levels by relying on the incense offerings of the world.

This made Zhang Li and the others firmly believe that this cultivation method was a celestial technique; otherwise, where in the martial arts world could such a cultivation method exist?

The Heavenly Sect cultivates the Supreme Forgetfulness of Emotions, the Earthly Sect cultivates talismans, the Human Sect cultivates the One Qi Transforms into the Three Pure Ones, but only the Daoist Court cultivates the power of incense offerings.

This technique is quite unique. The initial training speed is extremely fast, but the speed will obviously decrease in the later stages, as if it has reached a certain bottleneck.

This was something Zhang Li couldn't understand at all; no matter how he cultivated, he couldn't make any further progress.

Qin Chuan wouldn't answer such a question. In his eyes, Zhang Li was just a martial artist without spiritual roots. Even if he taught him the methods of cultivation, Zhang Li would still be unable to step into the realm of cultivation.

Even his own sister had to rely on immortal fruits to embark on the path of cultivation.

The reason why so few people on Earth are born with spiritual roots is ultimately because there is too little spiritual energy. Even in the cultivation world where spiritual energy is abundant, those who possess spiritual roots are still a minority.

Soon, Qin Chuan disappeared from everyone's sight, as if he had never been there.

Zhang Li did not get the answer she wanted and remained silent.

"Immortal Master... are we just going to hand over Huanglong Mountain like this?"

"Then where does our foundation lie?"

"If we activate the Primordial Chaos Formation, we might be able to suppress and kill this child!"

"..."

The five Taoist priests looked resentful.

Little did they know that Zhang Li was also unwilling to accept defeat.

The Dao Court has spent a century building its foundation here, but now Qin Chuan has reaped the benefits. How can they be willing to accept this?

But he also knew that if he attacked directly, his chances of winning were slim, and he might very well die here.

"Our chances of winning are slim if we activate the Hunyuan Formation alone."

A cold glint flashed in Zhang Li's eyes. At this moment, he looked like a cunning fox: "Gather the other experts from the Daoist sect. Qin Xian definitely has something we want."

"What is it?"

"Immortality!"
