Zhang Huaidan returned to his room, sat cross-legged, and entered into meditation. The carefree feeling he used to have vanished completely.

He had clearly attained the status of a True Person, and was the most dazzling prodigy in the last few hundred years of the Dharma-ending Age, yet he was powerless to change this.

This world cannot support the existence of a true person.

Therefore, he not only cannot reach a higher realm through cultivation, but he also finds it difficult to maintain his current realm.

Just as a hot object will turn into a cold object, if there is a cold object nearby, then the cold object will absorb the heat energy of the hot object.

The first law of thermodynamics perfectly explains the dilemma he is now facing.

If no solution can be found, his power will eventually regress to that of a true human.

Perhaps at that time, they could only be like those pitiful fellows in the various remnants of the Xia Kingdom, confined to a small world, barely clinging to life.

"northeast……"

Zhang Huaidan murmured softly, then quickly composed herself.

There's no need to rush things like forcing a duck onto a shelf; the time needed for the power to recede isn't just a year or two.

After attaining the status of a True Person, he underwent a transformation from the inside out. The power of his various supernatural abilities reached a new level, and he no longer needed to absorb Yin energy to balance Yin and Yang. Most importantly, the existence of the True Person status gave him all sorts of incredible powers!
Healing his uncle during the day was just a trivial matter. If he were willing to spare no time or effort, he could even use his primordial energy to baptize a stray dog ​​on the roadside and transform it into a demon king!
At the same time, the True Person also represents a part of the laws of heaven and earth, and even in this Dharma-ending Age, they should not be underestimated.

"The scenery at the Realm of True Person is already so beautiful, what about beyond the Realm of True Person?"

Zhang Huaidan's life was filled with sighs.

……

The next day.

A grand banquet was held on Longhu Mountain, and the same was true at the foot of Longhu Mountain, with hundreds and thousands of tables set up for a continuous feast.

Ordinary people at the foot of the mountain can eat and walk around at their leisure, and even receive some exquisite gifts.

When people asked the Taoist priest on the mountain what joyous occasion had occurred, the answers were varied: "The priest passed the imperial examination for blue and white porcelain," "He had twins," "The patriarch manifested his power."

Regardless of the circumstances, he was always cheerful and shared joy with the people.

The Taoist priest in charge of entertaining the guests exclaimed, "Thanks to the help of our fellow practitioners from the world of supernatural beings, otherwise, Longhu Mountain alone could not have afforded such a grand affair."

Another person had a different opinion: "What bad luck! There were too many people yesterday, and we couldn't squeeze in at all. Today, we drew lots and ended up at the foot of the mountain. We didn't even get a chance to see Uncle Huaidan."

"Yes, it's unbelievable that Uncle-Master Huaidan has attained such a level. If we take a closer look, it might give us some inspiration!"

On Longhu Mountain.

The place where people used to practice their spiritual disciplines has now been turned into a banquet hall.

Looking out, one can see a vast expanse of forest.

Thousands of extraordinary individuals, from various schools and sects, were engaged in lively discussions amidst the gentle breeze.

Suddenly someone shouted, "Master Huai Dan has arrived!"

In an instant, the vast venue fell silent. Countless eyes turned to see Zhang Huaidan, with a faint smile, calmly and unhurriedly walk to the large table in the very center.

Those who could sit at this table were either members of the Ten Elders or company directors, and they all stood up when they saw Zhang Huaidan arrive.

Zhang Huaidan said politely, "You are all my elders, please don't be so polite, please sit down."

Lu Jin sighed repeatedly: "The True Man is exceptionally talented and has attained the status of a True Man, making us old folks ashamed. This is a sign of respect for the True Man, and has nothing to do with age or friendship."

……

the other side.

Lu Linglong gritted her teeth in resentment.

"What? Grandpa won't let me sit next to Brother Huaidan!"

Lu Lin found it somewhat amusing: "This is a formal occasion. What kind of behavior is it for a junior like you to sit there like this?"

Lu Linglong naturally understood this principle, but knowing it didn't make her happy.

It's really disheartening to be sitting so far away on such an important day.

One delicious dish after another was served, but Lu Linglong had little appetite, while Feng Baobao was already eating heartily.

Zhang Chulan looked at the depressed Lu Linglong and chuckled: "Dan-ge dotes on you so much, and everyone knows about your relationship with Dan-ge. I think if you just skip this now, those seniors won't say anything."

Lu Lin was both amused and exasperated: "What a terrible idea!"

Lu Linglong rolled her eyes. She could see Zhang Huaidan anytime she wanted.

"Never mind. Feng Baobao, and Canglong, don't eat so fast, leave some for me!"

Hidden Dragon remained silent. The Ice and Snow Goddess had completely transformed into the form of Huai Dan Zhenren, turning her grief and anger into appetite, and devouring food with a frenzy, even more voracious than the Rice King Feng Baobao.

Zhi Jinhua cursed, "Are you a reincarnation of a starving ghost?!"

The dinner table was filled with a cheerful atmosphere.

……

This table is special; everyone here is from the Quanxing sect.

It's only because their reputation is slightly better, and it just so happens to be this day, that they have the right to eat at Longhu Mountain.

Seeing the Ten Elders and company directors rise and bow in greeting upon Zhang Huaidan's arrival, Ding Shian muttered to himself, "A true man should be like this..."

Xia Liuqing was both amused and exasperated: "Still acting like this here? Give me a break, Xiao Ding. The real person is now a genuine real person, standing at a height that neither you nor I can even begin to comprehend!"

Ding Shian was overwhelmed with emotions. He sighed, looked away, and poured himself a drink.

The others at the table, seeing this, also felt a great deal of emotion.

Today.

Who still remembers these two heroes?
Who still remembers that these two heroes were once recognized in the world of supernatural beings as having the potential to surpass Zhang Zhiwei?
Xia Liuqing, however, was not so preoccupied and felt slightly uneasy.

Mei Jinfeng sat at the table with the real people.

……

Back at the main table, Zhang Huaidan had just sat down when Zhao Fangxu stood up again: "I, Zhao Fangxu, on behalf of Na Du Tong, sincerely congratulate Master Huaidan on attaining the rank of Master." He raised his glass towards Zhang Huaidan: "At the same time, Na Du Tong sincerely hopes to work with Master Huaidan, the Celestial Master's Mansion, the Ten Elders, and all those in the world of supernatural beings to build a harmonious and prosperous ecosystem for supernatural beings."

Zhang Huaidan laughed and said, "Chairman Zhao flatters me too much."

Zhao Fangxu sat down. At the main table, many bigwigs from the world of supernatural beings had their own thoughts. Seeing that Lu Jin did not intend to speak, Lü Ci and Wang Ai had an idea.

However, before they could speak, Mei Jinfeng spoke first: "To attain the position of a True Person is something that has never happened in hundreds of years. True Person Huaidan, just based on this alone, no description of you is an exaggeration!"

Mei Jinfeng spoke from the bottom of her heart.

Because she had witnessed Wugensheng's efforts in pursuing the true path of Taoism.

The final success or failure is unknown.

That person has vanished without a trace.

Mei Jinfeng knew that even with the sect leader's unparalleled talent, she had not received a definite answer.

Zhang Huaidan, however, stands here alive, his smiling face reflected in every eye.

Zhang Huaidan humbly replied, "Grandma Jin Feng is too kind."

At this time.

Wang Ai feigned surprise: "Master Huai Dan, who is this?"

Everyone present was a shrewd and experienced person, and they had long suspected Mei Jinfeng's identity, but they had never revealed it.

Mei Jinfeng was somewhat embarrassed.

Zhang Huaidan didn't take it seriously: "Mei Jinfeng of the Quanxing." Wang Ai was surprised: "A person from the Quanxing!"

Lu Ci frowned: "Mei Jinfeng, what a familiar name. She was a close associate of Wugensheng back then."

Lu Jin's breathing was slightly heavy.

Wang Ai chuckled: "Things from back then are in the past. But, Xiao Feng, did you invite Mei Jinfeng to this table?"

Feng Zhenghao gave a forced smile: "Old Wang, you're joking. I'm just a junior, how could I possibly have that kind of face?"

Wang Ai's eyes darted around: "So that's you, Xiao Na?"

Na Ruhu scratched his head and said, "I don't have that ability."

Chen Jinkui raised his hand: "Patriarch Wang, don't look at me, it's definitely not me."

Wang Ai muttered to himself, "How strange! It's one thing for the Quanxing people to come to the mountain, but to sit at the same table as us is quite another. Lao Lu, isn't that odd?"

Lu Jin remained silent, drinking in silence.

Wang Ai smiled and looked at Zhang Huaidan, who remained calm as ever.

Mei Jinfeng, the person involved, became increasingly embarrassed and even distressed.

At some point, the atmosphere at the main table subtly changed, but fortunately it didn't last long. Zhao Fangxu spoke softly, "Patriarch Wang is joking. Mei Jinfeng is a guest I invited."

Wang Ai was genuinely surprised. Was Zhao Fangxu speaking up for Zhang Huaidan?
its not right!
Lu Ci said in a deep voice, "Since ancient times, good and evil have been irreconcilable. I wonder what special meaning Chairman Zhao has in doing this."

Zhao Fangxu shook his head: "There's no particular profound meaning to it. It's just that the fact that Huai Dan Zhenren has attained the status of a Zhenren is such a big deal, and it has nothing to do with good or evil."

He paused.

"Moreover, whether you acknowledge it or not, Quanxing has always been a part of the world of the supernatural."

Wang Ai said half-jokingly, "So in Chairman Zhao's eyes, are we, the righteous sects of the supernatural world, no different from the evil sects of Quanxing?"

The expressions of everyone present changed.

Lu Jin tapped the table lightly: "Today is Huai Dan's big day. Fatty Wang, save your words for later."

Wang Ai laughed heartily: "Just kidding, just kidding! Lao Lu, don't be so serious!"

The table fell silent, and a temporary calm returned, but anyone could see that their outward appearances masked their inner discord.

Wang Ai picked up a piece of fatty meat and silently circulated his Yin Qi.

It coalesced into a single force and surged towards Mei Jinfeng.

Today is a very auspicious day for Zhang Huaidan to attain the status of a True Person, so a little more excitement wouldn't hurt.

The Yin Qi encountered a force halfway through its journey. Wang Ai glanced at it subtly, and their eyes met briefly before parting.

They immediately separated in perfect unison and attacked Mei Jinfeng together.

Zhao Fangxu made Lü Ci sit down to eat with Quanxing, determined to teach him a lesson.

Mei Jinfeng was completely unaware; she had no ability to defend against the sneak attack of these two top experts, nor could she detect it, and neither could the others.

Only Lu Jin sensed something.

The next second, Wang Ai and Lü Ci's pupils contracted. The force and yin energy they had unleashed somehow reversed and returned!

Lu Ci's hand trembled, and he neutralized the force.

Wang Ai, however, was not so relaxed; her hands trembled, and some fat fell onto her pants.

His unusual behavior immediately attracted the attention of others.

Wang Ai's face turned pale and then flushed, before returning to normal in the blink of an eye. She picked up a piece of fatty meat from her pants and put it in her mouth: "The aroma of the meat is so tempting. It must be genuine local pork. I couldn't even hold my chopsticks properly."

The others didn't pay much attention, but Wang Ai chewed while exchanging a fleeting glance with Lü Ci, all of whom were secretly alarmed.

She glanced at Zhang Huaidan without leaving a trace, and he responded with a smile. Wang Ai's heart sank.

Aside from Zhang Huaidan secretly intervening, he couldn't think of any other possibility. Even Lu Jin couldn't have silently thwarted their attack.

'Does the realm of the True Immortal truly possess such unfathomable power?'

He only wanted to make Mei Jinfeng suffer a little loss in secret, and at most create some commotion to make things lively. He was still a long way from going all out.

However, it is still hard to believe that it was resolved so easily. Just how many miraculous methods does Zhang Huaidan have now?
Lu Ci was also deep in thought. Such a legendary realm, the difference between a true person and an extraordinary person, could not possibly be just a difference of one word!
A loud shout rang out from the ground: "Master Huai Dan!"

Amidst the clamor, Ding Shian's voice rang out particularly loudly.

He drank two jin of baijiu by himself, deliberately not using his qi to neutralize it, and stood up with the help of the alcohol.

Xia Liuqing was shocked: "Xiao Ding, what's wrong with you!"

The Quanxing members sitting at the same table also changed color.

……

"What's this guy up to?" Zhang Chulan, who was slurping up rice noodles, looked up.

"It's truly a miracle that he recovered." Lu Lin put down her chopsticks.

"What a strange guy." Lu Linglong continued eating.

……

Under the watchful eyes of many, Ding Shian pushed Xia Liuqing aside and stumbled toward the main table.

Naru stood up and blocked his way: "Shiman, don't be rude! This is not a place for you to run wild!"

Ding Shian exhaled a breath of alcohol: "I'm not being rude, nor am I being unruly. I just want to know, what exactly is the difference between a True Person and someone like me?"

These words sparked a continuous stream of whispers.

This wasn't just Ding Shian's thought.

Even the tiger-like man was momentarily dazed; the names of the two heroes seemed like yesterday.

"Huai Dan?" Lu Jin asked in surprise.

But Zhang Huaidan beckoned: "Come here, I'll tell you."

A chilling light flashed in Ding Shian's eyes. The tiger-like creature parted slightly to make way for him, but before he could get close, Zhang Huaidan blew out a breath of fresh air. The breeze brushed against his face, and the effects of the alcohol dissipated. Ding Shian trembled slightly and muttered bitterly to himself, "Master Huaidan, I am just unwilling to accept this."

He took a deep breath: "Please tell me, what exactly is it?"

Zhang Huaidan said calmly, "Didn't you hear me?"

Ding Shian was completely confused: "What did you hear?"

Everyone present looked at each other in bewilderment. Had Master Huaidan said anything just now?

Wang Ai said with a friendly expression, "Master Huai Dan, even if you don't want to tell him, there's no need to use such an excuse."

Zhang Huaidan smiled enigmatically: "Patriarch Wang, Ding Shian couldn't hear you, but didn't you hear it either?"

Wang Ai was filled with doubt and surprise: 'Zhang Huaidan is playing a trick on me!?'

The thousands of people present were all bewildered, while Zhang Chulan, who was not far away, couldn't stop laughing: "Brother Dan's sense of humor has kicked in!"

Lu Lin smiled as well, then suddenly noticed that Feng Baobao, with her chubby cheeks, was staring blankly at the forest in the mountains.

Just as I was wondering, the forest suddenly stirred. At first, it swayed like willow catkins, then it became like waves, and in the blink of an eye, it surged and rippled, with hundreds of birds taking flight.

The strange thing is that...

Banquet venue.

The crowd heard a strong gust of wind, but felt not even a whisper of it. (End of Chapter)
