Chapter 2398: Chapter 2398: Golden Cicada

Drunken Immortal Tower.

This is a famous restaurant in Fengyuan City.

Throughout the entire Fengyuan City.

There is an unwritten rule.

That is people of the same realm generally gather in specific places.

For instance, most Nascent Soul cultivators prefer to go to the Moon Weaving Pavilion.

While Divinity Transformation cultivators like to go to the Qingfeng Building.

Cultivators above Void Refinement Realm generally gather at the Drunken Immortal Tower.

Therefore, the closer you are to the Drunken Immortal Tower, the more high-rank cultivator’s aura you’ll sense.

Here, people often exchange information and basic materials.

The reason Zhou Yu came here is, in part, to learn about recent major events among the Human and Demon Clans.

Additionally, he is waiting for Xu Ling.

The reason Zhou Yu seeks Xu Ling is because, if he remembers correctly, Xu Ling comes from the Ice Emperor Wolf Demon Clan.

And Elder Fei’s task for him is to deliver an item to the descendant of Ice Empress Fairy.

As for who Ice Empress Fairy is.

Zhou Yu is not actually clear.

Thus, he has specially come to find Xu Ling to inquire about Ice Empress Fairy.

At this time, Zhou Yu had already arrived at the front of the Drunken Immortal Tower.

The Drunken Immortal Tower is not a single building, but rather a term for over a hundred buildings.

Of course, most of them are rented by cultivators as temporary resting places.

Only the three pavilions in the core area are specifically used for exchanges.

Upon Zhou Yu’s entry into the Drunken Immortal Tower, a middle-aged man saw Zhou Yu and his expression changed, then he respectfully approached Zhou Yu.

"Welcome to our esteemed Integration Realm Senior’s arrival at our establishment."

"Junior is the store owner here, my surname is Ma."

At this moment, looking at this young man before him, Shopkeeper Ma was incredibly shocked.

Keep in mind, he knows all the experts above the Integration Realm in Fengyuan City.

However, this young man who suddenly appeared, he had never seen before.

If it weren’t for a treasure he possesses that can accurately identify a cultivator’s realm, he would never believe, even under threat of death, the person before him is indeed an Integration Realm expert.

Seeing Shopkeeper Ma, Zhou Yu said:

"I want to rent a pavilion to rest."

"How do I rent?"

Shopkeeper Ma quickly said:

"It’s an honor for our store to have a Senior of Integration Realm stay."

"We have a rule at Drunken Immortal Tower, any Senior of Integration Realm can stay here for free."

"I’ll show Senior to the resting place."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yu raised an eyebrow slightly.

Unexpectedly, Drunken Immortal Tower has such a rule.

Given that Shopkeeper Ma could become the owner of Drunken Immortal Tower, he naturally has a keen eye for observing.

Seeing Zhou Yu’s expression, he immediately explained:

"Senior must be coming to our Drunken Immortal Tower for the first time."

"This is actually nothing surprising."

"Because most Seniors of Integration Realm have their own sphere of influence in Fengyuan City, they rarely rest outside."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yu suddenly understood.

He nodded and didn’t speak further.

Led by Shopkeeper Ma, Zhou Yu arrived at a very quiet pavilion in Drunken Immortal Tower.

Shopkeeper Ma respectfully said:

"Senior, do you find the environment here satisfactory?"

Zhou Yu nodded.

"Not bad."

"This will do."

"My surname is Zhou. If a woman comes looking for me in the next couple of days, bring her to me."

Upon hearing this, Shopkeeper Ma immediately responded respectfully:

"Certainly, Senior Zhou."

Afterward, Shopkeeper Ma retreated.

Zhou Yu then walked into the pavilion.

His Divine Sense quickly scanned the entire pavilion.

The pavilion was exceptionally clean and tidy, and surprisingly connected to a Spirit Vein underground, which is quite good.

He was here to wait for someone, so he didn’t bother setting up a Formation or anything.

He merely entered the rest area inside the pavilion and sat cross-legged.

Then he expanded his Divine Sense.

Covering the entire Drunken Immortal Tower.

In this way, with his powerful Divine Sense, everything happening at Drunken Immortal Tower was under his control.

However, shortly after Zhou Yu settled into Drunken Immortal Tower, his eyebrows suddenly lifted and his eyes opened.

"An expert is here!"

Zhou Yu’s Divine Sense detected an extremely strong aura appearing at Drunken Immortal Tower.

This person’s aura was exceptionally thick, evidently surpassing the Integration Realm.

After this person appeared, they proceeded directly to where Zhou Yu stayed.

On the path, the person did not use any Spell and merely displayed their aura, arriving at Zhou Yu’s pavilion.

Following this, a voice sounded.

"Is Daoist Zhou here?"

"I am Golden Cicada, here to visit Daoist Zhou."

Before coming, Zhou Yu knew that news of his entry into the city would surely spread quickly.

Soon, people would surely come to visit.

Only he didn’t expect it to be this quick.

The next moment, Zhou Yu’s figure appeared at the entrance of the pavilion.

Looking at the man before him, he clasped his fists in greeting.

"Oh, it turns out to be Daoist Jin."

"I have heard your name many times, it is a pleasure to meet you today."

Golden Cicada’s reputation is indeed prominent.

A hundred years ago, when Zhou Yu first joined Fengyuan City, he had heard of him.

This Golden Cicada, like him, had also ascended from a Lower Plane.

In the entire Fengyuan City, only two cultivators from Lower Plane have reached Integration Realm.

Golden Cicada is one of them.

Golden Cicada looked at Zhou Yu and smiled:

"Daoist Zhou, my apologies for the intrusion, I hope you don’t mind!"

Zhou Yu waved his hand and smiled:

"Daoist Jin, you’re too polite."

"Please, come in."

Golden Cicada did not hesitate and followed Zhou Yu into the reception room.

After sitting down, Golden Cicada first spoke:

"Haha, I heard of your name a hundred years ago, Daoist Zhou."

"There are only a few of us who’ve ascended from the Lower Plane, and Daoist Zhou, you’ve managed to reach Integration Realm from Divinity Transformation Realm in merely a hundred years, truly a prodigy of the Lower Plane."

"It’s not an exaggeration to say there are none before, nor will there be any after."

Hearing such praise from Golden Cicada, Zhou Yu chuckled bitterly:

"Daoist Jin, you flatter me."

"I was just lucky to have broken through."

Golden Cicada shook his head and laughed:

"In our realm, there is no such thing as luck."

"By the way, I heard Elder Qi has already visited you."

"He invited you to join the Elder Council, but you declined?"

Zhou Yu nodded.

"Indeed."

Golden Cicada sighed:

"That’s a pity."

"Nowadays, cultivators who’ve ascended from the Lower Plane are becoming fewer, and our weight in Fengyuan City is diminishing."

"With only me, I can’t support the situation."

"In the future, cultivators from the Lower Plane could face even worse conditions."

Hearing this, Zhou Yu was taken aback.

"Isn’t there another Integration Realm Daoist among the Lower Plane ascended cultivators?"

"I remember correctly, his surname is Luo."

"What’s happened to Daoist Luo?"
