The Star River has been extremely lively these days, with a constant stream of people arriving from the five major star rivers. The Xuanxian, who are rarely seen in normal times, have emerged like a swarm of locusts crossing a river.
These immortals arrived at the Star River one after another on orders from the four overlords, which also meant the end of the war between the stars.
The Sweeping Monk welcomed all the immortals from the entire Taiyi Starfield with open arms, treating them to the best food and drink. Meanwhile, the people of Yunxiao Palace gathered in a magnificent hall.
At this moment, Meng Fan sat lazily on the main seat in the main hall, looking at the seven people in front of him.
"Are you two the only two who have reached the Xuanxian level in the past thousand years?"
Besides the five Golden Immortals, including the Sweeper Monk, there were only Feng Qingyang and Dugu Qiubai below, which greatly displeased Meng Fan.
“Young Master, the rest of the people are cultivating in the Cloud Palace. When we came out, many of them had already reached the Celestial Immortal realm, so they must not be far from the Profound Immortal realm.”
Meng Fan frowned and said, "This cultivation speed is still too slow. This universe has already been targeted by the Quasi-Saints in the Chaos Sea. Although I am not afraid of him, what use are you if I have to do everything myself?"
The seven men quickly replied, "We are terrified that we have been unable to share your burdens, young master."
Meng Fan waved his hand, seemingly thinking about something: "Forget it, you can't be blamed for this. Cultivating in the Immortal Realm is like rowing against the current, let alone in this Middle Thousand World, where cultivation is even more difficult. I will find a way to create a secret realm specifically for your cultivation."
"Take a look at this first."
After Meng Fan finished speaking, he casually waved his hand, and the Water Mirror Technique appeared, displaying the scene of Zhou Yi's reply.
The video finished playing shortly afterward, and the seven people looked at each other, all feeling a heavy pressure.
On Monday, he was already at the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm. There were at least eight other subordinates of the evil god with similar cultivation levels. Any one of these nine could wipe them out, let alone the evil god himself!
“You shouldn’t underestimate yourselves. They have cultivated for hundreds of millions of years, and the evil god has existed for an unknown amount of time. You have only cultivated for a thousand years, so there is no comparison at all.”
Meng Fan changed the subject, saying, "But we Yunxiao Palace are about to do extraordinary things. What ordinary people cannot do is commonplace in our Yunxiao Palace, so it is normal for you to feel pressure."
We are ashamed.
"It will take quite some time for this world to grow to have 1,099 laws, but as far as cultivation is concerned, time flies by. Pressure is necessary to provide motivation."
"We will surely inherit the young master's will and let his glory shine throughout the entire Chaos Sea."
"Stop with the boasting, let's talk about your achievements over the past thousand years."
Huli and Xiongba exchanged a glance, knowing that the important matter had arrived. They stepped forward and said, "Young Master, Xiongba and I have never forgotten your original intentions over the past thousand years. We have worked hard and saved every penny. This is what we have gained over the past thousand years, and it is all here."
With a wave of his hand, Hu Li caused the palace to sparkle with light. The fairyland occupied a third of the hall, making it a truly magnificent sight.
"There are thirteen million immortal crystals here, one million of which were refined by me and Xiong Ba over a thousand years."
Meng Fan was overjoyed that Hu Li and Xiong Ba had managed to acquire so many immortal realms. He exclaimed, "Excellent! Excellent! You two truly deserve to be among the best talents under my command. You are exactly what I desire."
Upon hearing the praise, Hu Li and Xiong Ba couldn't help but feel smug and complacent.
Cao Zhengchun saw this and realized that at least three million of those immortal crystals were taken from him by Bu Tian. With this addition and subtraction, there was a difference of six million. Thinking of this, he wished he could find Bu Tian and swallow him whole!
Meng Fan's expectant gaze turned to Cao Zhengchun, prompting him to quickly regain his composure and step forward, saying, "Young Master, this is what I and the Sweeper Monk have gained over the years."
With a wave of his hand, a pile of immortal crystals appeared, a size smaller than Hu Li's pile.
"Upon my count, there are 7.8 million coins. Please punish me, young master!"
"It's alright, just do your best."
When Meng Fan turned to Youquan, he saw Youquan stride forward and respectfully say, "Young Master, Youquan has kept a low profile all these years, guarding our own territory and not fighting for an inch of land. We have not gained as many immortal crystals as they have. Please punish us, Young Master."
With a wave of his hand, Youquan scattered five million immortal crystals across the ground. The others were all astonished. They knew that although the Dark Star River was not exactly barren, it was not rich either. Youquan had actually managed to collect five million immortal crystals from just one star river. Youquan must have raided every single one of them!
Meng Fan, who was he, could tell from You Quan's smug expression that he had a backup plan. So he asked, "You Quan, you are indeed good, but I would be even happier if these five million immortal crystals were not obtained by forcibly taking them after causing widespread bloodshed."
Youquan was quite frank and said, "Young Master, this was obtained by eliminating a force that was threatening the Taiyi Star Region. What they did was buy and sell life-bearing planets and enslave people, causing the people of the Taiyi Star Region to suffer. I, on behalf of the Young Master, am inherently opposed to such evil forces. Therefore, it took hundreds of years to investigate their lair and take them down in one fell swoop."
These words surprised everyone, as they hadn't expected Youquan to extend its reach to the Starry Sky forces.
Just like when he dealt with Hengtong Bank on Qingxuan Continent, Youquan immediately focused his attention on the Starry Sky Merchants, which shows that he is much smarter than them.
Meng Fan smiled without saying anything about You Quan's thieving nature, and praised him, "Not bad, You Quan's idea is unique. It avoids starting a war. Very good. But I'm afraid a mere five million immortal crystals is not your trump card!"
Youquan smiled and said, "Indeed, I have also collected quite a few ordinary gold and silver items. Please take a look, young master."
Meng Fan joked, "Gold and silver have lost much of their appeal to me, unless the quantity is enormous, they don't really count."
Upon hearing this, Youquan made a gesture with his right hand, and a spatial opening about a hundred meters long appeared in the main hall.
As everyone's divine senses were drawn into it, they were immediately astonished.
Three planets were lined up in the sky, and they were filled with gold and silver. How much gold and silver must there be?
Meng Fan's heart skipped a beat, and his expression as he looked at You Quan was extremely gentle, almost like the way he would look at a woman.
He couldn't help but feel overjoyed. Even though the system's conversion rate was extremely low, he figured that so much gold and silver could be converted into a considerable amount.
"Youquan is very kind. You are all doing well, but there is still a long way to go and you need to work harder."
"We will certainly work hard to cultivate and live up to your trust, young master."
Seeing that it was about time, the sweeping monk said, "Young master, Chu Di has been waiting outside for a long time. I heard that he has a gift to congratulate you on your return from seclusion. Why not let him in and let him express his heartfelt wishes, setting an example for the third generation of disciples?"
Meng Fan knew that Chu Di must have made a fortune, otherwise he would not have come to claim credit at this time.
“Let him in. I want to see what he’s improved over the years.”
