A journey through immortal realms begins with a phantom tale.

What is the Immortal Realm like?

To see the truth of the immortal realm, one needs profound cultivation.

Only by viewing the Immortal Realm from Luo Cheng's perspective can one see its full picture more clearly. In Luo Cheng's view, the Immortal Realm is the only realm truly suitable for immortals to cultivate.

The Immortal Realm is filled with abundant immortal spiritual energy, and the entire Immortal Realm is also governed by invisible laws and principles.

In short, if you want to improve your strength after becoming an immortal, you must come to the Immortal Realm. Immortals like Qian Shanyong and Dai Nanfengyu who went to the cultivation world to live in seclusion did so out of necessity; they had offended high-level immortals in the Immortal Realm and had no choice but to flee to the cultivation world.

If viewed as a whole, the Immortal Realm is also part of the universe, but the planets in the Immortal Realm are larger and more stable than those in the Cultivation Realm. To put it another way, in the lower realm, a single strike from an immortal can destroy a planet; in the Immortal Realm, a single strike from an immortal can only blast a small hill a hundred meters high.

Another point is that they didn't feel anything when they were in the Azure Wood Realm, but when Luo Cheng and his group landed on a planet in the Immortal Realm, Lin Chen and the others became depressed.

"We can't fly!" Lin Chen exclaimed. "What kind of hellhole is this? We can't even fly!"

In the immortal realm, only those who reach the Celestial Immortal realm can fly. Those like Lin Chen, who haven't become immortals, can only live like mortals.

The ranks of immortals, from lowest to highest, are: True Immortal, Celestial Immortal, Golden Immortal, Great Luo Immortal, Heavenly Lord, and Immortal Emperor. For example, Qian Shanyong's realm is Great Luo Immortal, and his title is Luo Tian Shang Xian (Immortal of the Luo Heaven).

Luo Cheng follows the path of cultivating divinity, which is different from other realms. His strength is equivalent to that of an Immortal Emperor, and he can go toe-to-toe with the Azure Emperor.

In other words, even a newly ascended True Immortal cannot fly. They need to adapt to the Immortal Realm for a period of time, comprehend the Heavenly Immortal Laws, and achieve the status of a Heavenly Immortal before they can fly in the Immortal Realm.

Above that is the Golden Immortal, which means immortality. When you reach the Golden Immortal realm, your body and soul will possess immortal attributes. Only then can you truly achieve longevity.

If one goes a step further and achieves the Great Luo state, Great Luo means eternal freedom in all time and space, truly transcending the Three Realms and not being within the Five Elements.

However, in Luo Cheng's view, the Great Luo of the Immortal Realm is not the same as the Mythical Great Luo. Luo Cheng has not yet reached the level of a god, so he can only make a rough guess: the Mythical Great Luo should correspond to the Ancient God realm. The Heavenly Venerable of the Divine Realm should correspond to the Primordial Saint realm.

At this moment, Lin Chen and Ning Xin'er were somewhat frustrated. They were used to flying, and suddenly not being able to fly was something they couldn't get used to. Princess Lan Qiu, on the other hand, appeared very calm, carefully observing her surroundings.

This planet is called Feathered Ascension Star. Generally speaking, most people who ascend from the lower realm will ascend to Feathered Ascension Star. Of course, depending on the ascension point, they may also be teleported to other planets in the celestial realm.

Yuhua Star is a massive planet inhabited by life. After entering Yuhua Star, the group was greeted by continuous mountain ranges, with very few signs of human habitation.

Lin Chen said, "Brother Cheng, it seems there are very few people in the Immortal Realm!"

"Yes!" Luo Cheng nodded slightly, and then said, "The time in the Immortal Realm is different from that in the Cultivation Realm."

Led by Luo Cheng, the group flew over 10,000 kilometers before finally spotting a small town surrounded by several villages. The people there still lived a very primitive life, making a living by farming and hunting.

Ning Xin'er said, "Uncle Luo, this Immortal Realm looks very backward."

"Yes! In the Immortal Realm, only the areas ruled by the Azure Emperor and four other emperors are relatively advanced."

Lin Chen observed for a moment and said, "There are no cultivators or immortals in this small town."

"Hmm!" Luo Cheng was also observing the town. "However, their physique is very good, probably because they are nourished by the immortal energy. Their lifespan is also longer than that of mortals in the lower realm." According to Luo Cheng's observation, these mortals can live for a thousand years.

Ning Xin'er was a little envious. "It feels pretty good in the Immortal Realm. You can live for a thousand years without cultivating."

Lin Chen said, "Brother Cheng, does that mean they are nourished by immortal energy, so their cultivation speed is faster than that of cultivators in the lower realm?"

"No!" Luo Cheng shook his head gently. "They enjoy the benefits in the Immortal Realm, but they also have to endure some tribulations. If they were truly allowed to cultivate immortality, their cultivation speed would be slower than that of cultivators in the lower realms, and the tribulations they face would be more difficult than those of cultivators in the lower realms."

"I see, fortune and misfortune are truly intertwined!"

"Why didn't the Azure Emperor pass down any cultivation techniques?"

Luo Cheng said, "In reality, the Azure Emperor has not unified the Immortal Realm for very long, and he only ruled the central region of the Immortal Realm."

When Luo Cheng and his group landed, the townspeople all looked shocked.

"Immortal?"

"Greetings, Immortal!"

Clearly, in the celestial realm, immortals are already imprinted in everyone's minds, and everyone knows that there are immortals in this world.

Lin Chen said, "Brother Cheng, do these people even know they're in the Immortal Realm?"

"Some people know, some people don't." This knowledge or lack thereof is related to the dissemination of information.

The town had no walls; one could enter directly into it. The town was bustling with people, and some vendors sold their wares. The three girls, new to the immortal realm, were filled with curiosity about everything, looking around curiously.

Those around them watched Luo Cheng and his group from a distance. Their reactions to them were a mix of curiosity, trepidation, and fear.

While the three women were strolling around, they discovered some interesting things.

"Brother Cheng, look, these things from the immortal realm would be treasures in the cultivation world."

As Lin Chen said, even the grass and stones of the Immortal Realm are treasures in the cultivation world because everything in the Immortal Realm is nourished by immortal energy and contains immortal essence. The three of them strolled around and bought many things. Of course, the money for these purchases was all paid for by Luo Cheng using treasures.

Suddenly, the crowd parted, and a middle-aged man walked towards Luo Cheng and the others.

"It's the town mayor!"

"Make way, it's the mayor."

The town mayor walked up to Luo Cheng, beaming, "Immortal, you are all ascended beings, aren't you?"

"Yes!"

Yuhua Star is an ancient planet, and throughout history, many cultivators have ascended to it. The town mayor said, "If you calculate the time, Yuhua Star hasn't seen an ascensionist for six thousand years."

Lin Chen was somewhat surprised, "Ascension, is it that difficult?"

The mayor asked, somewhat puzzled, "Did you all ascend to heaven together?"

Lin Chen said, "I haven't reached the realm of a true immortal yet."

Clearly, the town mayor knew something about the realms of immortals, which surprised him even more. "You haven't reached the True Immortal realm, how could you ascend?"

Ning Xin'er said, "Of course, it was Uncle Luo Cheng who brought us here."

The town mayor turned his gaze to Luo Cheng, his eyes filled with even greater awe. To be able to guide an ordinary cultivator to ascension—that was a truly powerful being.

Ning Xin'er said, "We're a little curious about the Immortal Realm, so we asked Uncle Luo to take us to see it."

The town mayor was shocked again. Just because they were curious about the celestial realm, they came here for tourism?

Such a powerful being is terrifying.

Luo Cheng asked, "Mayor, are there any other immortals on Yuhua Star?"

"Yes!" the mayor replied, then added respectfully, "Immortal, please don't call me mayor, just call me Little Liu."

"Xiao Liu, there's no need to be so nervous."

Xiao Liu felt uneasy. He thought, "You're a powerful being who can bring ordinary people to the Immortal Realm. How can I not be nervous?"

Luo Cheng thought to himself, "I wonder which planet Brother Fu and Hou Pijing have ascended to." This trip to the Immortal Realm was partly for sightseeing, and partly to see Fu Shan and other old friends who had ascended to the Immortal Realm.

Luo Cheng could tell that the town mayor had some cultivation, being at the Nascent Soul stage. However, because he was in the Immortal Realm, cultivation was much more difficult than in the Cultivation Realm.

Of course, if one cultivates to the Tribulation Transcending stage in the Immortal Realm and survives the Heavenly Tribulation to become a True Immortal, the cultivation speed will be much faster. After all, the Immortal Realm is the most suitable realm for immortals to cultivate.

Luo Cheng knew the mayor's purpose in coming; he simply wanted to gain some benefits from the ascended one.

Luo Cheng said, "Tell me about the situation on Yuhua Star. If you know about the Immortal Realm, you can tell me about it too."

"OK!"

"Reporting to the Immortal, Yuhua Star is the oldest planet for ascension. Under normal circumstances, one or two immortals will ascend within a thousand years."

"Yuhua Star has four major immortal sects and a celestial court residence."

"After ascending to immortality, one must first register at the Celestial Court's residence. Afterward, one can choose to cultivate alone or join one of the four major immortal sects of the Feathered Star."

With the town mayor's explanation, Luo Cheng gained a general impression of Yuhua Star and the Immortal Realm.

According to the town mayor, there is a difference between immortals and mortals. Generally speaking, immortals don't concern themselves with the affairs of mortals, and mortals who want to cultivate immortality can only rely on inherited cultivation methods. In addition to the four major immortal sects, Yuhua Star also has numerous cultivation sects and families of all sizes.

Cultivation sects and families operate in the same way as those in the lower realms. Every so often, cultivation sects recruit disciples to replenish their ranks.

However, the Immortal Sect almost never accepts disciples. Even if they do, one must at least reach the True Immortal realm to join.

As things stand, the Immortal Realm is vast and sparsely populated, and belongs to the cultivation civilization.

Therefore, most planets in the Immortal Realm did not have countries; at most, there were small kingdoms, each ruling over a small city.

The gap between immortals and mortals is enormous. Once one reaches the realm of a true immortal, a simple nap or a period of seclusion can take hundreds or even thousands of years. Even if mortals in the immortal realm can live longer, they still cannot compare to immortals.

For example, when an immortal emerges from seclusion, they might make friends with a mortal, but when they emerge again, their friend will have turned to dust. Furthermore, immortals and mortals think differently; immortals don't converse with mortals.

The town mayor came to find Luo Cheng, simply because Luo Cheng was an ascendant.

Generally, since ascendants are new to the Immortal Realm and unfamiliar with it, the town mayor can come and make an impression, explaining the Immortal Realm to the ascendant and gaining their favor. If the ascendant is in a good mood, they might reward the ascendant with treasures or impart some cultivation techniques or supernatural abilities.

Luo Cheng understood the mayor's meaning. With a flick of his finger, Luo Cheng imparted to the mayor a cultivation technique and a supernatural power, and also gave him a magic pill. It was a simple transaction.

Next, Luo Cheng and his group strolled around the town. After Lin Chen and his group lost interest, they asked Luo Cheng to take them to a nearby city.

"Let's go then!"

Originally, Luo Cheng wanted to visit the major sects of the Immortal Realm, but all of them kept their gates tightly closed. Luo Cheng lost interest in visiting them.

Sure enough, the city was more prosperous and had more people than the previous town. There were more cultivators in the city, but immortals were still rare.

The city is surrounded by walls, and a magical array has been set up around it, which has both defensive and spiritual energy-gathering functions. In other words, cultivation will be more effective within the city.

While the group was strolling through the streets, they finally encountered a celestial being.

"You guys look unfamiliar!"

Luo Cheng said, "We just arrived in the Immortal Realm and are just wandering around."

The immortal glanced at Lin Chen and the others, thinking to himself, "This ascendant is playing some tricks; he's hired three female cultivators as guides right from the start."

The immortal said, "You've just ascended; come with me to register."
