Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhenjun looked down at Wudang Mountain below and asked, "Could it be that we have directly appeared in the territory of a mortal sect in this world?"

Did their arrival provoke hostility from the humans here? Why are they so enraged, even ready to wage war against them?

Ge Chenlang City True Monarch shook her head: "I think it's probably a misunderstanding. Our sudden appearance has left the mortals here confused about right and wrong, and whether there is any danger." She has been traveling in the mortal world for a long time and knows very well what the mortals are thinking.

It must be that the appearance of these immortals caused some strange phenomenon, making mortals feel that their lives were threatened, which is why they did this.

"Since it's a misunderstanding, then let's just explain it clearly," said the Demon-Slaying Great Sage Xiao briefly.

The moment the immortals fell out of the 'dimensional portal,' the portal closed, and the strange phenomenon disappeared, leaving the Taoist priests and tourists on Wudang Mountain, who were preparing for battle, astonished.

The old Taoist priest's lips trembled as he looked at the group of 'humans' emerging from the dark void: "What's going on? Are they...humans? Or gods? Or extraordinary beings from another world?"

As extraordinary individuals who obtain immortal runes, they receive secrets from the nation unknown to ordinary people, including those of humans from other worlds.

Furthermore, there are quite a few humans in this other world; in Xia Kingdom alone, there are over 100,000 people from this other world.

These alien humans are basically no different from Earthlings, and there is no reproductive isolation. The absence of reproductive isolation means that Earthlings and alien humans may share a common origin.

This origin could be 'gods', since many mythologies contain stories of gods creating humankind.

Of course, it is also possible that humans on Earth came from other worlds hundreds of thousands of years ago, or that humans on Earth originated from other alien worlds.

The origin of humankind has been a subject of intense debate in the scientific community for a long time, and even the theory of evolution has been revived as a hypothesis about the origin of humankind.

"An extraordinary being... *gulp*, could the black hole just now have been caused by an extraordinary being?" Chen Sihang swallowed hard. The kind of aura and strange phenomenon just now could probably only be achieved by someone at the fifth rank or above.

He had also watched the combat videos of fifth-tier superhumans very carefully. Each of them was a humanoid nuclear weapon capable of destroying a city, and they could also cause strange phenomena through elemental power.

However, he was actually relieved that it was someone of this caliber of superhuman ability.

The advancement of extraordinary individuals is also a continuous process of moving closer to the divine, especially in terms of morality. They are committed to saving the world and sacrificing themselves to save humanity. This is their rudimentary understanding of the divine in Wudang Mountain.

The stronger the extraordinary individual, the more noble their character.

"Put them away! Put your swords away!" The old Taoist priest shouted to the Wudang Mountain disciples as he saw the powerful superhuman beings descending to the ground.

Because he saw that those extraordinary beings in the sky all had 'eyes of gods,' which proved that they were all 'near-gods,' it was normal for them to cause strange phenomena to appear on Wudang Mountain.

At the same time, my heart was pounding.

Holy crap... so many 'near-gods'? That's outrageous! There are only two in the entire Xia Kingdom, and there are seven here, a full seven! They're like the Calabash Brothers!

In Taoism, the "Eye of God" is also known as "Immortal Fate." Ordinary immortal beings with extraordinary runes are considered lucky if they can reach the fourth or fifth level.

Although a fifth-tier being can live for three or four hundred years and can boast about being a 'half-immortal,' they don't actually possess any power other than the skill of using elemental forces.

Although it's theoretically possible for those with immortal runes to reach the sixth rank, it's only in theory.

Only those who are "close to gods" can truly reach the sixth level or above by following the proper steps. They can directly comprehend the "Dao" (divine knowledge) through the "eye of God" and reach the sixth level, achieving true immortality.

“The Eye of God… they are all…” The Taoists swallowed hard, sheathed their swords, and quickly stepped back, clearing the front courtyard in front of the Zixiao Palace so that the celestial beings could descend to the ground.

The tourists gasped: "Hiss... It's a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding. They're not monsters, but a group of national guardians."

"They all have the Eye of God! And look at their ancient-style clothes, could they all be from our Xia Kingdom? My goodness!"

"Seven... That's incredible. I thought our country only had God of War Tao and Master Yu. I didn't expect there to be more."

The tourists instantly became enthusiastic, but they didn't tactlessly crowd forward. Instead, they quickly calmed down and reluctantly retreated a distance towards the foot of Wudang Mountain.

Although they are fanatical about high-level superhumans, they are not blind to the truth. A group of 'near-gods' descending on Wudang Mountain must mean something big is going on. It's better not to know things that aren't your business, so as not to cause trouble for them.

Some of the extraordinary individuals secretly took out their phones to take a few photos as souvenirs before reluctantly descending the mountain.

Wudang Mountain quickly returned to its previous bustling state, but the fervor in the air did not disappear; on the contrary, it became even stronger.

At the same time, the national organization also received the news, and people from the 'Extraordinary Service Center' and the 'Extraordinary Legion' rushed towards Wudang Mountain.

The 'Extraordinary Person Service Center' is essentially a service station and police station for extraordinary individuals. This organization manages civilian extraordinary individuals, while the Extraordinary Legion is a pure military force.

After all, the presence of seven previously unseen "near-gods" was enough to excite the entire nation.

You have to understand that there are only a handful of 'near-gods' in the whole world. There are only three in Europe and two in South America. Other countries must have them, but they just haven't been discovered yet.

For example, the group of high-level superhumans who appeared at the Guanghai City Hotel before were very likely 'near-gods'.

There are already more than double digits of extraordinary individuals within the Xia Kingdom, not to mention the rest of the world. It's too easy for 'near-gods' to go unnoticed, since extraordinary individuals are now widespread and most of the Xia Kingdom's population are extraordinary.

When the immortals descended to the ground, to their surprise, the mortals were not only not nervous, but were extremely enthusiastic and worshipful, which puzzled them greatly.

They've only just arrived in this world and haven't done anything yet, so how come the mortals already look almost the same as the people of Liyue when they first saw them?

Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhenjun glanced around and looked at the people with the strongest elemental power fluctuations present, and said: "I am Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhenjun, the Three-Eyed Five-Manifestation Immortal. This is my first time descending on this place. Could the person in charge of this place explain to me what this place is, the distribution of towns, and the cultural customs? I will certainly give you a reward."

The old Taoist priest hurriedly stepped forward and excitedly said, "I, I, I am the head of Wudang Mountain. My name is Zhong Qingxuan, and my Taoist name is Qingxuan Daoren."

What did he hear?

The True Lord Who Borrows Clouds and Wind! The Three-Eyed, Five-Manifestation Immortal! And he even calls himself 'this Immortal'!

Holy crap! Holy crap! Holy crap! This is like a celestial being descending to earth!

He had no doubts; after all, gods existed, so why couldn't immortals exist? He had long believed that immortals definitely existed.

One can tell the abilities and strengths of immortals from their titles, and those who can obtain the title of 'True Lord' are no ordinary immortals.

The fact that they could ask where this place was suggests that the immortals had just been born and were unaware of the situation in the Xia Kingdom.

"Hiss..." The Taoist priests' eyes widened, and they gasped wildly. Immortals! They were actually immortals!

Indeed, there is nothing wrong with a high-level superhuman calling himself an immortal.

Even ordinary immortal beings with immortal markings can declare themselves immortals if they travel back to ancient times.

"Immortals, please come inside to rest. Let me explain slowly," Zhong Qingxuan said hurriedly, bowing deeply, his mustache bristling with excitement.

When the immortals arrive, the Wudang Mountain Taoist lineage takes off; when the immortals arrive, a powerful backer arrives.

"Then I'll have to trouble you." True Lord Lishui Dieshan nodded.

"Go do your homework, what are you all doing gathered here?" Chen Sihang said sternly to the Wudang Mountain disciples who were reluctant to leave.

"Yes, Master Chen." The Taoists left reluctantly, hoping to catch a few more glimpses of the immortals and perhaps even gain some affinity with them in the future.

However, the Taoist priests couldn't stay idle; they were constantly updating their WeChat Moments, official accounts, Kuaishou, and Douyin.

It wasn't just the Taoist priests; the tourists were also frantically updating their social media.

The news of the immortals descending upon Wudang Mountain spread throughout the entire Xia Kingdom in just a few seconds, and even the neighboring countries knew about it.

Because the countries surrounding Xia are all relatively weak, they are all seeking Xia's protection, and Xia's social network and the networks of the surrounding countries have formed a network.

Moreover, some countries have even disintegrated after experiencing a small disaster. For example, the island nation south of Xia Kingdom has completely disintegrated, with each island becoming its own country.

These densely packed island nations gradually evolved into city-states.

The relatively small number of extraordinary individuals from small countries naturally became the leaders of their city-states. Even those who were awakened, who were numerous in the Xia Kingdom, were the backbone of these smaller nations.

"Please, please." The old Taoist priest's face was almost splitting with a smile, and Chen Sihang quickly took out the tea leaves that the state specially supplied to them, these immortal beings with divine markings.

"I thought I'd lost it." Shen He said without any emotion as she looked at the 'Eye of God' in her hand. The 'Eye of God' had fallen off her body just as she emerged from the dimensional portal.

Chen Sihang, who was brewing tea, looked at the 'fairy' who was cool and ethereal, especially the 'Eye of God' in her hand. His expression was full of complexity. He thought he had moved the gods and been granted the 'Eye of God', but it turned out that he hadn't. He was so excited at the time.

The immortals sat around two peach wood tables, each with a teacup in front of them steaming with white vapor. The immortals did not stand on ceremony.

With their discerning eye, they could naturally tell that these tea leaves were made from elemental plants through roasting, but the processing was far too crude, a complete waste of raw materials. If they were given the opportunity to make them, they could produce superior celestial tea.

The old Taoist priest bowed deeply to the immortals and said, "Before I explain the changes in the world to you immortals, could you please tell me your names so that I can set up memorial tablets for you?"

Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhenjun took a sip of tea and said, "Offering memorial tablets, although it does not bring any real benefit to us immortals, I would not mind if it could give you some psychological comfort."

"As I have said before, my name is True Lord Liuyun Jiefeng."

"My name is True Lord Xiaoyue Zhuyang." True Lord Xiaoyue Zhuyang said calmly. His calm personality was modeled after the Emperor. The Emperor was not only his master god but also his teacher. He was the Emperor's eldest disciple, and all his immortal techniques were learned from the Emperor.

"Old woman, I am the True Lord of Gechenlang City. When I walk in the mortal world, you may call me Granny Ping," Granny Ping said with a smile.

"I am the True Lord of Flowing Water and Stacked Mountains," the True Lord of Flowing Water and Stacked Mountains said with a nod.

Xiao said briefly, "I am a member of the Yaksha clan, my immortal title is Demon-Subduing Great Sage, and my real name is Xiao." His voice was very calm, and he looked very indifferent.

"My name is Shen He, a disciple of the immortals," Shen He said coldly.

"My name is Gan Yu. I am a half-immortal, and also... a Qilin." Gan Yu's voice was weak. When she said that she was a Qilin, she touched the Qilin horn on her head. Her cheeks were slightly red, as if the fact that she was a Qilin made it difficult for her to gnash her teeth in front of mortals.

'Hiss...' The old Taoist priest and Chen Sihang both took a deep breath. Qilin! Since ancient times, it has been an auspicious beast in the hearts of the people of Xia. The descent of Qilin will surely bring a prosperous age, with the people living in peace and the country's fortunes reaching their peak.

Even walking in the mountains, one can feel the auspicious energy emanating from the forests, making it a blessed place for cultivating immortality and attaining enlightenment.

"..." Gan Yu felt uncomfortable under the two pairs of burning gazes. She twirled her index fingers under the table and didn't even dare to look into their eyes.

"With such intense gazes from you two, is there perhaps something wrong with my disciple?" True Monarch Liuyun Jiefeng frowned slightly.

Although they respected the immortals, they never looked at Gan Yu with such fervent eyes. Why did it seem like they wanted to devour her?

"No, no, no, I wouldn't dare." The old Taoist priest was startled, and when he came to his senses, he was covered in sweat. "It was mainly because I saw the auspicious beast Qilin that I couldn't help myself. Please forgive me, Immortal."

"Oh, could it be that we've heard of the Qilin here?" asked True Monarch Xiaoyue Zhuyang in surprise.

They only knew some basic facts about the world from the Emperor, but they were unaware of its cultural customs.

"Of course, of course. In the myths and legends of the Xia Kingdom, the Qilin is an auspicious beast with many legends. Whenever the Qilin appears in the world, the people will live in peace and the country will be prosperous."

"Even if the Qilin dwells in the mountains and forests, this place will still become a blessed land. Therefore, I have been a little out of line. Please forgive me, Immortal."

As Gan Yu listened to the old Taoist priest's voice filled with adoration, her toes clenched involuntarily, her head bowed, her cheeks flushed, and her body swayed slightly involuntarily.

Being praised like this so soon after arriving in this world made her want to crawl into a hole and disappear.

"As expected of my disciple, you are legendary even in this place." True Monarch Liuyun Jiefeng proudly raised his head.

“Master…” Gan Yu’s cheeks turned even redder, and her ears were burning.

Grandma Ping smiled and shook her head: "Then please start with the legends of Taoist culture, sir. Let's learn about this country from this part first, and then tell us about its history."

“Alright, alright. Although I don’t know much about other cultural minorities, I can readily draw upon Taoist mythology.” The old Taoist straightened his back.

These immortals appear to be from other worlds, not native to Xia Kingdom. However, their clothing, tone of voice, and ancient manner suggest that they have some connection with Xia Kingdom, perhaps even originating from the same source in ancient times.

"Let's start with the Three Pure Ones creating the world..."

The old Taoist priest and Chen Sihang worked together to explain Taoist mythology to the immortals, gesturing wildly as they spoke, just like storytellers in an old-fashioned teahouse.

At the same time, the immortals exchanged answers to questions they did not understand, and they would occasionally fall into deep thought, but they had already begun to accept the culture of Taoism.

The culture of Taoism is similar to that of the immortal sects and sorcerer factions in Liyue, except that the sects and contents are more complex, and they all pursue immortality and longevity, which makes the immortals feel a sense of affinity towards Taoism.
