Chapter 2453: Chapter 2453: Immortal Emperor’s Personal Transmission
The Golden Crow Immortal Emperor appeared in the form of a Primordial Spirit projection, a single shout striking fear into the surroundings.
All the disciples of the Golden Crow Palace, including the Yanshi Immortal Emperor, looked with reverence at the phantom above the Palace Master Hall and bowed in unison.
"I am already aware of your dispute."
The phantom above the hall swept its gaze over the disciples, including the Yanshi Immortal Emperor. He looked solemn and dignified, commanding respect without anger. All disciples who met his gaze lowered their heads, not daring to look directly at him.
"It is a great fortune for my Golden Crow Palace to have such a talented prodigy! From now on, this Wushuang Immortal King shall be personally guided by me!"
The voice of the Golden Crow Immortal Emperor, filled with authority, emitted from the phantom and echoed in the ears of tens of thousands of Golden Crow Palace disciples.
Each disciple of the Golden Crow Palace heard it clearly. When they looked at Fang Bai again, they all showed expressions of envy.
As for Liuyan Fairy and Feng Nie Fairy, who had different intentions towards Fang Bai, their hearts grew even more eager.
In their minds, since this Junior Brother Wushuang was personally chosen by the Golden Crow Immortal Emperor as his direct disciple, the Immortal Emperor would certainly devote many cultivation resources to him and fully guide his growth.
With Junior Brother Wushuang’s talent and aptitude, his future would at least reach the level of an Immortal Emperor Realm expert; becoming an Immortal Emperor was not impossible.
Therefore, Liuyan Fairy and Feng Nie Fairy, these daughters of heaven, all hoped to form a celestial union with the Wushuang Immortal King.
As for some other female disciples with ordinary aptitude but stunning looks, although they dared not hope to form a celestial union with the Wushuang Immortal King, they thought about how to join him in dual cultivation, sharing a fleeting romance.
In this way, not only would it greatly benefit their own cultivation, but they could also establish a connection with the Wushuang Immortal King. Once he ascended to a high position in the future, no one in the Golden Crow Palace would dare to bully them.
The Golden Crow Immortal Emperor’s naming Fang Bai as his direct disciple caused some reluctance among the high-ranking members such as Yanshi Immortal Emperor, but they dared not object.
Moreover, they understood that Fang Bai’s achievements would be much greater following the Golden Crow Immortal Emperor than if he stayed with them for cultivation.
"Wushuang, the Palace Master wants to take you as a direct disciple. This is a grand opportunity! Why don’t you quickly express your gratitude!"
Seeing Fang Bai standing there motionless, Yanshi Immortal Emperor thought he was too overwhelmed to know what to do and hastily urged him.
Fang Bai suddenly snapped out of his "stunned" state, pretending to be overjoyed, and deeply bowed to the ground, saying, "Thank you, Palace Master, for your guidance!"
"Rise! Since you’ve entered my tutelage, you must diligently cultivate in the future and not tarnish my reputation!"
The Golden Crow Immortal Emperor’s phantom lifted a single hand, and Fang Bai felt an invisible immortal power lift his body, rendering him unable to resist.
"Merely a phantom of the Primordial Spirit, yet so powerful. This old dog’s strength seems to have grown even more over the millennium!"
Fang Bai rose accordingly, looking at the phantom of the Golden Crow Immortal Emperor hovering above the Palace Master Hall, secretly astonished.
Moreover, with his understanding of the Golden Crow Immortal Emperor, he sensed that the current Golden Crow Immortal Emperor was quite different from a thousand years ago, yet he couldn’t put his finger on what exactly was different.
"Perhaps only by seeing the true form of the Golden Crow Immortal Emperor, can I know what transpired over the past millennia."
Fang Bai thought to himself.
To become the direct disciple of the Golden Crow Immortal Emperor in such a short time, even Fang Bai hadn’t anticipated it would be so smooth. He thought that once he entered the Golden Crow Palace, he would have the opportunity to be by the Immortal Emperor’s side and access some of his secrets, hoping to receive news of Linghu Qianjiao as soon as possible.
However, Fang Bai was also aware that the Divine Sense of the Golden Crow Immortal Emperor spread for thousands of miles, extremely perceptive. By staying by his side, one must be cautious in everything; otherwise, a single slip might lead to an irreparable disaster.
If the Golden Crow Immortal Emperor discovered his true identity, even if Fang Bai had ten lives, it wouldn’t suffice to withstand a single blow from him.
"For now, follow Yanshi Immortal Emperor to practice the secrets of Immortal Law and Danyang Immortal Emperor to learn artifact refining. When I conclude my closed-door training, you’ll come to hear the Immortal Dao lectures."
Leaving this message, the phantom of the Golden Crow Immortal Emperor disappeared.
"Respectfully seeing off the Palace Master!"
Once again, the disciples of the Golden Crow Palace bowed respectfully before they all rose.
Apart from Yanshi Immortal Emperor and Danyang Immortal Emperor, the other disciples of the Golden Crow Palace left one after another.
Before they left, they cast complex glances towards Fang Bai.
Liuyan Fairy and Feng Nie Fairy sent flirtatious glances, trying to capture Fang Bai’s attention, but unfortunately, Fang Bai was staring at the Palace Master Hall in deep thought, completely ignoring their signals.
Yanshi Immortal Emperor and Danyang Immortal Emperor had a major dispute over Fang Bai, but unexpectedly, Fang Bai was chosen by the Golden Crow Immortal Emperor.
Though they felt a bit disheartened, having the chance to instruct Fang Bai in the secrets of Immortal Law and artifact refining still amounted to holding half the title of teacher, ensuring their efforts were not in vain.
"Let’s go, you should learn my secrets of Immortal Law first!"
Yanshi Immortal Emperor said, pulling Fang Bai along.
"Learn my artifact refining technique first!"
Danyang Immortal Emperor also reached out to pull Fang Bai.
"Danyang old man, don’t you know about first come, first served?"
Yanshi Immortal Emperor glared, exasperatedly.
Danyang Immortal Emperor chuckled, "I don’t care about your first come, first served! Wushuang is a great talent for artifact refining, I don’t want to waste any time!"
Seeing them quarrel again, Fang Bai hoped they would have another fight until both were exhausted, but knowing this was impossible, he thought it over and advised, "No need to argue! How about I first study ten days of Immortal Law secrets, then ten days of artifact refining, and rotate like this?"
Yanshi Immortal Emperor and Danyang Immortal Emperor pondered, realizing that was the only way, they glared at each other and nodded at Fang Bai, saying, "Fine, as you wish!"
Hence, for the next period, Fang Bai moved back and forth between Yanshi Immortal Emperor’s and Danyang Immortal Emperor’s immortal halls, studying Immortal Law secrets and artifact refining techniques with them.
Fang Bai harbors countless secrets of Immortal Law and unparalleled skills in artifact refining.
Therefore, in his eyes, whether it was the secrets of Immortal Law taught by Yanshi or the artifact refining techniques by Danyang, they were like mere jokes.
Yet, to gain their trust, Fang Bai still "earnestly" studied, intentionally showcasing his extraordinary talent, mastering Immortal Law secrets immediately and understanding artifact refining techniques instantly, leaving the two Immortal Emperors in amazement.
In the blink of an eye, half a year passed.
During this half year, the Golden Crow Immortal Emperor remained in seclusion, and without news of Linghu Qianjiao, Fang Bai grew slightly anxious.
The Chiyang Immortal King, who was severely injured by Fang Bai, also fully recovered after six months of recuperation.
Through the mediation of Yanshi Immortal Emperor, Chiyang Immortal King and Fang Bai "shook hands and made peace," but from Chiyang’s eyes, Fang Bai detected a bitter resentment.
As for the Qingyan Immortal King, although he appeared friendly and jovial with Fang Bai, Fang Bai knew that this man was deep and cunning, a smiling tiger.
