Chapter 643 The Immortal Gathering at Yuntai (Seeking monthly votes!)
The Immortal Dynasty of Qian Yuan, Yuntai Mountain.

Yuntai Town.

"Tsk tsk, this first-rate immortal dynasty is really impressive. A small town is actually inhabited entirely by cultivators."

Tan Hu couldn't help but click his tongue in amazement.

"Yes, I wouldn't even dare to dream of doing that in Qinghe."

Liu Tiezhu responded, looking around as he spoke.

Wang Zhao's expression was similar to that of his senior brother.

Li Rui smiled and shook his head.

He was naturally there to attend the Cloud Terrace Immortal Gathering, bringing Tan Hu, Liu Tiezhu, and Wang Zhao along, simply to broaden the horizons of the three of them.

"Let's go. The Cloud Terrace Immortal Gathering doesn't start for another three days. Let's find a place to stay first."

Li Rui said.

"Okay."

Liu Tiezhu shouted out, then found a small shop that looked elegant. He walked in and asked a question, and his eyes widened in surprise.

"Ten mid-grade spirit stones? Are you trying to rob me?"

The shop assistant glanced at Liu Tiezhu and said, "Fellow Daoist, you can go and ask around. Are there any inns in Yuntai Town that cost less than ten mid-grade spirit stones? If there are, I can make up the difference for you."

Li Rui looked at it with even more curiosity.

An ordinary innkeeper's waiter actually possessed remarkable cultivation.

They kept calling each other "fellow Daoist".

It has a completely different style from the State of Yu.

Liu Tiezhu's face flushed red after being rebuked by the waiter. Just as he was about to roll up his sleeves and have a proper argument, Li Rui stopped him, saying, "Fellow Daoist, here are forty mid-grade spirit stones. Please give me four rooms."

As he spoke, Li Rui took out forty mid-grade spirit stones from his storage bag.

Upon seeing the spirit stones, the waiter then revealed more information: "See, this old fellow Daoist has a good eye. You're also here to attend the Cloud Platform Immortal Gathering, right?"

Liu Tiezhu blinked and couldn't help but ask, "What? Can anyone below the Celestial Realm participate in the Cloud Platform Immortal Gathering?"

One listen.

The waiter rolled his eyes: "Dream on. Only celestial beings can go up the mountain to discuss the Dao. We should be happy to get a little bit of attention from the bottom."

Only after asking this did Li Rui find out.

The Cloud Terrace Immortal Gathering is a grand gathering for cultivators from the Qian Yuan Immortal Dynasty and several surrounding immortal dynasties.

At that time, Yuntai Town will also host the Yuntai Immortal Gathering, which will be filled with countless rare treasures and will be a great opportunity for treasure hunting.

This way.

This explains why the rooms in Yuntai Town are so expensive.

Although cultivators can endure wind and rain, it is not necessary. If one can sleep indoors, who would want to use the ground as a bed and the sky as a blanket?

When supply cannot meet demand, price increases are inevitable.

In this respect, there is not much difference between the cultivation world and the mortal world.

Enter the guest room.

The room faces the street, and the window offers a perfect view of the street.

Li Rui spotted a familiar figure in the bustling crowd.

"Pei Yao?"

Pei Yao walked into a deserted alley, suddenly stopped, and said coldly, "Which fellow Daoist is it? Please come out and meet me!"

The words fell.

Then a figure slowly walked out.

When he saw who it was, he was slightly surprised: "Li Rui?"

"Mr. Pei, it's been a long time."

Li Rui cupped his hands in a respectful gesture.

Not bad.

The valiant woman before me is none other than Pei Yao, the female martial arts saint who was once ranked among the top in martial arts.

Later, Pei Yao was accepted as a core disciple of Baiyujing, and the two never saw each other again. Unexpectedly, they met at the Yuntai Immortal Gathering.

He addressed Pei Yao as Mr. Pei.

This is the old name of the State of Yu. The title "Master" does not distinguish between men and women. This female martial arts saint once set up a school in Hexi and taught martial arts for three years, which revitalized the originally declining martial arts world of Hexi. That is why she was called Master Pei.

"Is Mr. Pei here to attend the Cloud Terrace Immortal Gathering?"

Li Rui asked.

When Pei Yao saw that it really was Li Rui, she first looked him up and down with curiosity.

Although she was in Baiyujing, Li Rui's reputation had reached her ears; she'd heard that he'd recently reached the Celestial Realm. If she remembered correctly.

When she was a legend in the martial arts world, Li Rui was just a stable boy in a small county town.

Its rise has been remarkably rapid.

Pei Yao shook her head: "I did not receive an invitation. I came here to search for treasure."

Li Rui nodded.

"I see. By the way, Xiao Liu went to Baiyujing. How is she now?"

Xiao Liu is none other than Liu Taxing, the young genius who went to Baiyujing with Pei Yao.

Upon hearing the name Liu Taxing.

Pei Yao's eyes dimmed, a rare occurrence: "Xiao Liu... is dead."

"died?"

Li Rui frowned slightly.

Pei Yao nodded: "Ten years ago, he perished in a trial."

Li Rui sighed softly.

Liu Taxing was selected to enter Baiyujing not only because he possessed the spirit of the immortal fruit, but also because his innate talent and aptitude were exceptional.

But ultimately, their strength is still too weak.

When they entered Baiyujing, they were not even at the Great Innate level yet.

There are countless geniuses like him who have fallen in the cultivation world, so it is not surprising.

The path to immortality has always been this cruel.

Pei Yao hesitated for a long time before finally speaking: "The spirit of the immortal fruit on Xiao Liu's body has been targeted. She came to me once before going to the trial."

really!

Li Rui squinted.

In the Yu Kingdom, Liu Taxing was a great prodigy with a smooth and successful life. But when he went to Baiyujing, it was like starting from scratch with no background, and he was also burdened with the spirit of the immortal fruit.

If a child is carrying a precious treasure, it would be strange if it weren't coveted.

Baiyujing has countless powerful figures, so it's perfectly normal for them to be tricked and killed.

In comparison, Pei Yao was much luckier.

When they went there, they were already at the Dao Body Realm level. As long as they were careful, they could protect their lives.

Now he has even reached the Celestial Realm, which is clearly a blessing.

"Mr. Pei, life and death are unpredictable; everything is fate."

Li Rui said something.

He had only met Liu Taxing once, and they were not related, so naturally he would not investigate or help Liu take revenge.

On the path of cultivation, death is nothing out of the ordinary.

It's all fate.

Pei Yao also let out a long sigh.

Perhaps it was because she met an old friend in a foreign land that she told him about another old friend.

She originally intended to keep it to herself.

After exchanging pleasantries for a while, Li Rui returned to the inn.

Nothing happened for three days.

The Yuntai Fairy Gathering arrived as scheduled. As soon as the auspicious time arrived, wisps of white smoke rose from Yuntai Mountain, creating a dreamlike and ethereal scene, like a fairyland.

Li Rui led Tan Hu and the other two down from their guest rooms and into the inn's lobby.

"check out?"

"Fellow Daoist, the truly top-notch items will only be available in the next few days. If we leave today, wouldn't our trip to the Cloud Platform Immortal Gathering have been in vain?"

The waiter was puzzled.

He would never have said it if he hadn't felt a connection with this old fellow Daoist.

Li Rui smiled slightly: "Young friend, I really am here to attend the Cloud Platform Immortal Gathering."

The waiter was taken aback when he heard this.

Before they could even speak, a group of white-robed disciples from Yuntai Mountain walked in and bowed to Li Rui, saying, "The Immortal Gathering has begun. Please, Senior Li, enter the mountain."

The waiter had lived in Yuntai Town for a hundred years, so how could he not recognize that these young men and women were disciples of Yuntai Mountain?

His eyes widened in surprise.

"Good heavens, he's truly a celestial being!"
