Chapter 1607
Upon learning of this, Chen Xuan and the others' expressions changed; clearly, no one had anticipated such an unexpected turn of events.
Chen Xuan asked doubtfully, "How is that possible? According to Brother Xuanmo, the Immortal Fate Conference is being held in various star regions of the entire Yanlong Realm to select geniuses. They can be directly sent to all sects and holy cities within the region. Even super sects will open their gates wide and recruit disciples in accordance with the Immortal King's decree?"
“That’s right, that was the decree sent from Kowloon City back then, there’s no mistake.” Bei Shan Xiaolong’s expression changed upon hearing this. “Could it be Kowloon City?”
Chen Xuan shook his head and said, "No, Nine Dragons Star is not so audacious as to act that way."
Chen Xuan remained silent, then immediately released his divine sense to cover the registration line in front of him. He quickly discovered something amiss: the three people in charge of recruiting genius disciples from various stars would hand over a small slip of paper to the guardians as they introduced themselves.
Chen Xuan's divine sense was very powerful, and he directly saw the divine and demonic characters on the note: "Liu Qi, Tu Feng, You Yue..."
Beishan Xiaolong also noticed this and immediately instructed Chen Xuan and the others to wait where they were while he went to investigate.
Watching the various groups of young disciples from other star regions come and go, each one was successfully guided into the interior of Lingtian Divine City.
Beishan Lingwei, Xuanxiao Ziling, and others were very unwilling.
Chen Xuan was not in a hurry. He believed that once the matter was clarified, it could be resolved and was not a big deal.
After a short while, Beishan Xiaolong returned with a gloomy face.
"I never imagined that even the ten holy cities that govern a region could be so corrupt?" Bei Shan Xiaolong said indignantly after returning. "If the ten of them want to successfully join Lingtian Holy City, they would have to pay ten million catties of source liquid just for the registration fee, resource fee, and book fee. That's one hundred million catties of source liquid for all ten of them."
Upon hearing this, Chen Xuan frowned, while Bei Shanling and the other ten people turned pale and were at a loss.
"His Majesty had already planned ahead, fearing this slight mishap. I could have easily gathered a hundred million jin of Origin Liquid by even contributing some of my own money," Bei Shan Xiaolong said indignantly.
"But when I announced that my disciples came from the Nine Dragons Star Region, the immortal named Zhang Qi immediately frowned and said that if my ten disciples wanted to join the Lingtian Holy City, they would need two hundred million catties of Origin Liquid."
Chen Xuan's brows furrowed deeper and deeper.
“I didn’t ask why,” Beishan Xiaolong continued. “He said that cultivators from remote places have weak foundations and poor aptitudes. Entering the Holy City requires a lot of sect resources for training, so the source liquid required for entry is doubled. If you don’t want to, then get lost.”
At this point, Beishan Xiaolong said through gritted teeth, "Damn it, if I hadn't come here on His Majesty's mission, I would have killed that Void Realm expert with my own hands."
Of course, this is just a casual remark. This place is the core star cluster of a realm, the core stronghold of Lingtian Holy City. Not to mention unranked Celestial Immortals, even second-class Celestial Immortals have to treat it with utmost respect.
"Two hundred million catties of Origin Liquid?" Bei Shan Xiaolong thought of his elder brother Xuan Xiaomo's instructions and expectations for him before he left his hometown, and his eyes reddened with anxiety. "I simply cannot produce such a massive amount of Origin Liquid in a short time."
Upon learning of this unexpected turn of events, the younger generation, including Xuanxiao Ziling, Beishan Lingwei, Bai Yuer, and Shenhuo Liuyun, were shocked, and at the same time, they were all extremely frustrated and unwilling to accept it.
So this is the world beyond the stars, this is the real world beyond the realm.
"Such a heartless sect, we are unwilling to join it!" Bei Shan Ling Wei had never seen the ancestor so distraught and anxious, and her eyes reddened as she spoke.
"Yes, is this still the so-called extraterrestrial immortal sect? This doesn't meet our expectations and fantasies about the Ten Holy Cities at all!"
"Two hundred million catties of Origin Liquid, how dare they?"
……
Beishan Xiaolong ignored the younger generation and instead looked nervously at the silent Chen Xuan.
After thinking for a moment, Chen Xuan smiled and glanced at the ten people, including Bei Shan Ling Wei, saying, "That's right. To have already harbored resentment towards the sect before even joining is already contrary to the principles of cultivation."
