Urban Extraordinary Immortal Doctor-Chapter 2261: Not a Burden

Congtian Domain, the Immortal Realm’s third Heavenly Domain among the nine major domains.

Just like the other eight Heavenly Domains, Congtian Domain also has countless Immortal Cities, countless Immortals, numerous blessed lands, and immeasurable cultivation resources...

Previously, Fang Bai had consecutively slain numerous disciples under the Ice River Immortal Emperor and Dragon Taming Emperor in the major domains of Central Heavenly Domain and Xiantian Domain, which had already aroused their vigilance. Therefore, temporarily distancing himself from those two major domains was a wise choice.

Between the Immortal Realm and the lower realms, there is a barrier condensed by the ancient thousands of immortals, clearly defined. Cultivators from the lower realm can only ascend to the Immortal Realm upon advancing to the Human Immortal Realm, though the probability of this is one in ten million, hence the saying "as difficult as ascending the heavens."

However, between the nine major Heavenly Domains of the Immortal Realm, although there are barriers separating them, ordinary immortals can freely travel between the domains through some large teleportation arrays.

Additionally, once one’s cultivation level reaches the Immortal Emperor Realm, one can traverse the major domains at will, unhindered by any restrictions due to their overwhelming immortal power.

Traveling between the major domains through large teleportation arrays is extremely costly.

Currently, the Immortal Realm explicitly stipulates: An immortal must pay one million Immortal Stones or equivalent value in cultivation resources to travel once using a large teleportation array.

Among the large teleportation arrays within the Immortal Realm, more than half were under the control of the Emperor’s Palace a thousand years ago.

At that time, for each immortal, the Emperor’s Palace only charged ten thousand Immortal Stones to maintain the operation of the large teleportation arrays, from which they earned very little.

But since the fall of the Emperor’s Palace, the vast majority of the large teleportation arrays have been taken over by eight top-tier Immortal Emperors, raising the cost of teleporting for an immortal sharply from ten thousand Immortal Stones to one million Immortal Stones, a tenfold increase, causing an uproar in the Immortal Realm.

However, considering the terrifying power of the eight top-tier Immortal Emperors, with many subordinate forces, the immortals of the Immortal Realm, despite their grievances, dared not oppose them.

So over time, the fee of one million Immortal Stones to use a large teleportation array became the norm in the Immortal Realm.

Of course, occasionally, there are some stubborn or dissatisfied immortals who refuse to comply with this rule and attempt to pay fewer Immortal Stones to forcibly use large teleportation arrays to other domains, only to be killed by immortals under the eight Immortal Emperors.

In his heyday as an Immortal Emperor, Fang Bai roamed the Carefree Immortal Realm without restrictions across the barriers between the domains.

But now, though possessing a wealth of Immortal Technique Secrets, his cultivation level is far from sufficient, and to travel from Xiantian Domain to Congtian Domain, he must spend a large amount of cultivation resources to use the large teleportation array.

"Palace Master, we’d better stay here and wait for your good news! This way, should you encounter a powerful enemy, you won’t have to be distracted without us..."

Upon hearing about going to Congtian Domain where each immortal has to pay one million Immortal Stones, Broken Sword Immortal King, Jianyu Immortal King, and Taoist Shi each thought about it and expressed their decision not to accompany Fang Bai there.

For them, the majority of the cultivation resources in today’s Immortal Realm are controlled by the eight Immortal Emperors, and it’s incredibly difficult for disciples of the Emperor’s Palace to obtain cultivation resources. Instead of handing over three million Immortal Stones needed for the three of them to the forces under the eight Immortal Emperors, they’d rather save it for the Palace Master’s cultivation.

As long as the Palace Master improves his cultivation, once he slays the eight Immortal Emperors and revitalizes the Emperor’s Palace, these disciples need not worry about lacking cultivation resources for aid in their cultivation. Furthermore, although the three of them have decent strength, following Fang Bai, if they encounter a powerful enemy, not only would they fail to help, but they might even hinder.

Given such circumstances, it’s best not to go.

"I... I’m not going either..."

Baili Mingyue knew she was the weakest among the five immortals, and facing a powerful enemy, Fang Bai would have to constantly look after her. Seeing that the three immortals had expressed their decision not to follow Fang Bai to Congtian Domain, clearly aiming not to be a burden to Fang Bai, though with a heart filled with reluctance to part from Fang Bai, she still decided to prioritize the overall situation.

She also understood that Fang Bai’s journey to Congtian Domain was to find immortals who ascended from the lower realm. His strength was formidable, with numerous tricks up his sleeves, efficiency was better ensured alone. Furthermore, she wanted to reunite with her friends and family from the lower realm sooner.

Therefore, although unwilling in her heart, Baili Mingyue decided against traveling with Fang Bai.

Although Fang Bai had the Five Elements Space Ring to bring them along effortlessly, seeing them all shake their heads in refusal, he didn’t insist further.

"The three of them are also disciples of the Emperor’s Palace, let them go to Peach Blossom Fairyland with you this time!"

Fang Bai released the Emperor’s Palace disciples, Gu Feng, You Ming, and the newly joined female immortal Xiao Ping, who had been cultivating within the Five Elements Space Ring, introducing them to Baili Mingyue and the other immortals, then provided them with the specific location of Dongfang Rushi and Dongfang Ruhua’s residence in Peach Blossom Fairyland and instructed them to meet there.

It was only then that Baili Mingyue learned Fang Bai had already found Dongfang Rushi and Dongfang Ruhua. Hearing of their cultivation in Peach Blossom Fairyland brought her great joy, and her previously downcast spirits lifted considerably.

"Ice River Palace and Dragon Taming Palace should have sent several immortals to track our whereabouts. Remember to disguise and conceal your aura on this journey to prevent any mishaps! Take these puppet corpses; if you encounter powerful enemies on the way, use them to assist in battle!"

Saying this, Fang Bai handed over puppet corpses he crafted from the corpses of Lei Yi Immortal King, Ice Peak Immortal King, and others to Broken Sword Immortal King and Fairy Jianyu, teaching them the method to control the puppet corpses.

With the assistance of these puppet corpses, their combat strength could undoubtedly be elevated one level, and even if they encounter second-tier Immortal King Realm experts, they can easily defeat them.

However, considering the formidable powers of Ice River Palace and Dragon Taming Palace, Fang Bai still felt a bit uneasy and thus imparted to Baili Mingyue and the others a combat and defense formation.

This formation required Baili Mingyue, Broken Sword Immortal King, Fairy Jianyu, Taoist Shi, Gu Feng, You Ming, and Xiao Ping to collectively display. Once mastered, even in encounters with third-tier Immortal King Realm experts, they would remain undefeatable.

After carefully instructing them once more and confirming no issues, Fang Bai finally let them leave.

"Safe travels..."

Watching Baili Mingyue and the seven immortals fly away until their figures vanished into the distant sky, Fang Bai murmured softly.

...

In Fang Bai’s past life memories, there is a large teleportation array located in the nearest Myriad Sword City that leads to the third Heavenly Domain Congtian Domain.

Myriad Sword City, tens of thousands of years ago, was just an obscure small Immortal City. Later, one of the formidable eight top-tier Immortal Emperors, Myriad Sword Immortal Emperor, was born here, and soon an ancient large teleportation array was discovered by the immortals.

Thus, Myriad Sword City rose to fame, attracting countless immortals hoping to comprehend the Immortal Dao here, wishing to garner some immortal aura from Myriad Sword Immortal Emperor.

Some immortals came here specifically to utilize that large teleportation array to travel to other domains.

Over tens of thousands of years, the once unnamed small Immortal City is now a vast city inhabited by millions of immortals.

Due to the large teleportation array in the city, which allows Myriad Sword Sect founded by Myriad Sword Immortal Emperor to collect abundant cultivation resources, Myriad Sword Immortal Emperor values Myriad Sword City greatly, stationing four third-tier Immortal King Realm disciples in the city.

Moreover, Myriad Sword Immortal Emperor specifically bestowed his disciples Immortal Talismans, enabling them to crush the Immortal Talismans in case of emergencies, so that Myriad Sword Immortal Emperor can swiftly respond upon receiving the message.

This is the reason why various Immortal Realm forces or immortals do not dare to invade Myriad Sword City.
