"Golden Immortal!"
At that moment, everyone's eyes were focused on Gao Yan!
"Sigh, I wanted to interact with you all as a celestial being, but some people always bully me because of my cultivation level. Now, I'm not pretending anymore. I'm laying my cards on the table. I am a Golden Immortal!"
As he spoke, Gao Yan's aura continued to rise.
Golden Immortal Level 1!
Golden Immortal Level Two!
Golden Immortal Level Three!
Golden Immortal, Fourth Level!
Suddenly, the invisible aura of the Golden Immortal transformed into a tangible energy hand, which reached out and grabbed Beiyang Guilong, lifting him into the air.
Immediately afterward, Gao Yan had a sudden thought.
The giant hand of energy flew right up to Gao Yan.
He raised his hand and slapped it, making a crisp sound.
"So what if you're a ninth-level Xuanxian? You think you're so great?"
"Smack!"
"You've broken the array of my residence, haven't you?"
"Smack!"
"You dare to act tough on my turf?"
The three seemingly ordinary slaps nearly shattered Bei Yang Guilong's immortal soul. At the same time, his face visibly swelled, instantly doubling in size.
"My lord, spare my life!"
"I was wrong!"
"I won't do it again!"
Sensing the shock of the immortal soul, Bei Yang Guilong was almost scared out of his wits, losing all trace of the majesty of a Xuanxian powerhouse.
"Remove the mark from your storage ring and give it to me!"
With a thought, Gao Yan caused the energy hand to dissipate, and Bei Yang Guilong's body fell from the sky.
"Yes, sir, here is the storage ring you requested!"
Bei Yang Guilong quickly erased the mark on the storage ring and presented it to Gao Yan with both hands!
"Take your men and get out of here!"
Gao Yan put away his storage ring and waved his hand dismissively.
"Thank you for your mercy, sir. I'll be on my way now!"
Feeling like he'd been granted a pardon, Bei Yang Guilong got up from the ground and fled Gao Yan's mansion with his men without looking back!
At this moment, Dong Yunfeng and his grandson, Wenren Tianzhan, and others suddenly realized what was happening.
The next moment, Dong Yunfeng and his granddaughter bowed and said, "Dong Yunfeng and Dong Yunxian greet the Venerable One!"
"Venerable One" is an honorific title for a Golden Immortal.
"Wenren Tianzhan greets Your Excellency!"
Wenren Tianzhan bowed in greeting, as did the people he brought with him!
"You two need not be so polite!"
Gao Yan raised his hand.
"Thank you, Venerable One!"
"Alright, everyone, please come in!"
Gao Yan stepped into the hall and sat down in the main seat, while Dong Yunfeng and his grandson, along with Wenren Tianzhan, sat to his left and right. However, their expressions revealed a hint of tension and trepidation.
Gao Yan spoke up: "Elder Dongyun, Elder Wenren, I know some alchemy, so we can cooperate in this area!"
At this moment, Dong Yunfeng eagerly said, "Your Excellency, my Dong Yun family is willing to provide five sets of materials in exchange for a batch of immortal pills!"
"Despicable scoundrel!"
Seeing that Dong Yunfeng had beaten him to it, Wenren Tianzhan cursed inwardly and immediately followed up, saying, "My Wenren family is willing to provide materials for six people in exchange for a batch of immortal pills!"
"Hmph, the Dongyun family is willing to provide seven sets of materials!"
"alright!"
Gao Yan raised his hand: "Both of you should calculate based on five sets of materials. Both fourth-grade and fifth-grade immortal pills are acceptable!"
In fact, Gao Yan can also refine the Six-Turn Immortal Pill, but he should keep some trump cards up his sleeve!
Upon hearing this, Dong Yunfeng and Wenren Tianzhan were overjoyed!
After finalizing the cooperation plan.
Dong Yunfeng suddenly asked, "Venerable One, have you gone to the Floating Pagoda Hall to register?"
What kind of place is the Floating Pagoda Hall?
Gao Yan didn't pretend to know what he didn't; instead, he asked directly.
Dong Yunfeng thought to himself, "Indeed," and continued, "Reporting to the Venerable One, the Floating Pagoda Palace is a powerful Taiyi force that rules over three islands and seven domains. The three islands are Tianqing Island, Sihai Island, and Longfeng Island, and the seven domains are Shifang Domain, Dalong Domain, Tianjiao Domain, Yanhuo Domain, Qilin Domain, Guifang Domain, and our Dongyue Domain!"
Anyone who breaks through to the Golden Immortal realm will go to the Floating Pagoda Palace to register. First, they will receive a reward, and second, they will gain the right to govern a region. For example, our Dongyun family has the right to govern six states, and we must hand over 50% of our annual income to the Floating Pagoda Palace.”
Gao Yan frowned: "Does this income refer to all income?"
Dong Yunfeng explained, "Of course not. This income includes cultivation tax, existing real estate and shops, as well as taxes collected from various forces, and mining taxes, etc."
Gao Yan nodded, then asked, "Just how powerful is the Floating Pagoda Palace?"
At this moment, Wenren Tianzhan hurriedly said, "Venerable One, the Floating Pagoda Palace is still very powerful. There are seven Taiyi Immortals alone, and the Palace Master has even reached the seventh level of Taiyi. There are also two deputy Palace Masters who are both at the sixth level of Taiyi Immortal, and the remaining four elders are all at the third level of Taiyi Immortal or above."
As for the Golden Immortals serving in the Floating Pagoda Palace, there are over 300 of them. With your qualifications and strength, Your Excellency, if you were to go to the Floating Pagoda Palace, you might have the opportunity to stay and serve there!
"Oh, what are the benefits of working in the Floating Pagoda?" Gao Yan continued to ask.
Wenren Tianzhan said, "The benefits are huge. First, you can come into contact with Taiyi Immortals there, and if they are in a good mood, you can even get their guidance. Second, you can also come into contact with higher-level cultivation techniques, supernatural powers, and immortal arts. Most importantly, the salary for working in the Floating Pagoda Palace is Law Immortal Crystals plus Immortal Stones. For a Golden Immortal family like ours, it is easy to obtain Immortal Stones, but it is extremely difficult to obtain Law Immortal Crystals, because all the Law Immortal Crystal mines are directly controlled by the Floating Pagoda Palace!"
Furthermore, the Floating Pagoda Palace has alchemists who can refine sixth-level immortal pills. Ordinary Golden Immortals don't even have the chance to come into contact with them. Take our Wenren family's ancestor for example. To improve his cultivation, he had to rely entirely on time. However, he had a friend who was promoted to Golden Immortal around the same time as him. But by chance, he entered the Floating Pagoda Palace to work. So many years have passed, and our ancestor is only at the second level of Golden Immortal, while his friend has already reached the sixth level of Golden Immortal!
Therefore, almost every Golden Immortal desires a position in the Floating Pagoda Palace!
"good!"
Dong Yunfeng added, "My ancestor also wanted to take up a position in the Floating Pagoda Palace, but unfortunately, the Floating Pagoda Palace didn't think much of him!"
It's good to have a big tree to lean on for shade!
Gao Yan understood this principle, but he had a system. Although there were many benefits to working in the Floating Pagoda, it did not attract him. Besides, everyone only saw the benefits of working in the Floating Pagoda, but did not see the disadvantages.
Once you gain benefits, you become subject to others' demands.
No one can compare to how carefree and comfortable he is now.
So he asked, "What are the consequences if I don't register at the Buddha Hall?"
"And there are no consequences!"
Dong Yunfeng said, "If you don't register, you can't receive the reward, and you also can't obtain the management rights of the area, which is equivalent to giving up a lot of income!"
