Chapter 1292: 1296 Friends invited to treasure hunt

"By the way, I still don’t know which sect Taoist Friend Shen and Fairy Chu belong to. My brother and I have been in the Immortal Domain for some time and haven’t heard of you."

Shangguan Jie asked casually.

"We are Loose Immortals, just passing through the Immortal Domain. It’s normal that Taoist Friend Shangguan hasn’t heard of us."

Shen Long said calmly.

Shangguan Jie nodded and chatted about the major events that had happened over millions of years in the Immortal Domain. Shen Long and Chu Buyu had never heard of them and couldn’t join in the conversation.

"Taoist Friend Shangguan, you’re not finding us just to chat about these things, are you? Let’s get to the main topic!"

Shen Long said with a frown.

"Taoist Friend Qian, have you ever heard of the Immortal Mansion of the Ages?"

Shangguan Jie got to the main topic.

Shen Long nodded: "It’s said to be the Dao field left by the Daluo Golden Immortal Time Immortal Lord, where time flows faster, and there are many Heaven and Earth Treasures. So, Taoist Friend Shangguan plans to enter the Immortal Mansion of the Ages to seek treasures?"

They had obtained two tokens of the ages in their early years, and only with these tokens could one enter the Immortal Mansion of the Ages to seek treasures.

"I’ve heard some Daoist friends mention the Immortal Mansion of the Ages. It’s said that the inheritance of the Time Immortal Lord was taken away long ago, but the Dao field is still operational, with many restrictions and rare resources. Only those below the Daluo Golden Immortal can enter to seek treasures, but many treasure hunters have perished there."

Chu Buyu said slowly.

Shangguan Jie nodded: "Indeed, it is so. To be frank, we’ve received reliable information that the Heavenly Pill Immortal Lord perished somewhere in the Immortal Mansion of the Ages, and there’s likely to be an Eighth Rank Dao Pill."

"Eighth Rank Dao Pill!"

Shen Long smiled faintly.

He could now refine Eighth Rank Dao Pills, though the success rate wasn’t very high.

"Is Taoist Friend Qian also a Dao Pill Master?"

Shangguan Jie asked in surprise.

Shen Long took out a cyan jade box, opened it, revealing two golden pills the size of dragon eyes, each with seven Dao Patterns.

"Seventh Grade Dao Pill!"

Shangguan Jie looked utterly shocked.

He had never expected Shen Long to be a Dao Pill Master.

"The Heavenly Pill Immortal Lord had another identity. He was from the Chen Dao Clan, the same clan from which Thousand Spirits Dao Ancestor hailed. He carried many good things, with the Eighth Rank Dao Pill being just one of them. I want to invite you to join us in seeking treasures in the Immortal Mansion of the Ages. How about it?"

Shangguan Jie revealed an expectant expression.

"Taoist Friend Shangguan, you and your brother have been in the Immortal Domain for millions of years and must know many Taiyi Golden Immortals. Why not invite them? Why us?"

Shen Long asked, puzzled.

The "Beast Immortal Scripture" that he cultivated was created by the Thousand Spirits Dao Ancestor. Since the Heavenly Pill Immortal Lord was a member of the Chen Dao Clan and an Eighth Rank Dao Pill Master, he must have valuable things.

"The disintegration cave of the Heavenly Pill Immortal Lord is in a place with a time restriction. We don’t have a High Rank Time Immortal Artifact nor have we mastered the Time Law, let alone breaking the restriction; we can’t even get close."

Shangguan Jie explained.

He indeed knew many Taiyi Golden Immortals, but they did not possess top-grade Time Immortal Artifacts and couldn’t counter the time restriction. Shen Long, who had mastered the Time Law and came from another Immortal Domain, was the perfect candidate for treasure hunting.

"I’ve heard that entering the Immortal Mansion of the Ages requires tokens of the ages. Do you have enough of them?"

Shen Long asked.

"We have four tokens of the ages in hand, and we’ve also obtained a set of Secret Talismans that can guide us to convene quickly. If Taoist Friend Qian and Fairy Chu are willing, we should set off quickly. Soon, the restriction of the Immortal Mansion of the Ages will enter a weakened period. If we miss this chance, we’ll have to wait a million years."

With a flip of his right hand, four tokens of the ages appeared in Shangguan Jie’s hand.

"The Immortal Mansion of the Ages isn’t a good place. We need to think it over and notify you once we’ve decided."

Shen Long said.

"No problem. I hope you don’t take too long to consider; opportunities don’t wait."

Shangguan Jie said solemnly.

Shen Long agreed, and after chatting for a while, they took their leave.

They visited several bookstores, buying numerous scrolls introducing the situation of the Immortal Domain, with a particular focus on the Immortal Mansion of the Ages.

More than an hour later, Shen Long and Chu Buyu appeared at the entrance of a three-story golden building, with the plaque above reading "Golden Essence Pavilion" in three silver characters, and Shen Chan stood at the door.

They walked into the Golden Essence Pavilion, Shen Chan followed them in and closed the door.

"Master, there is a branch of the Hundred Knowledges Tower in the marketplace. The Hundred Knowledges Token on me reacted."

Shen Chan reported truthfully.

Over the years, they had collected several Hundred Knowledges Tokens, one of which Shen Chan carried with him.

"A branch of the Hundred Knowledges Tower? Just perfect. Change your appearance and buy information about the Heavenly Pill Immortal Lord, Shangguan Jie, and Shangguan Shuo from the Hundred Knowledges Tower, especially regarding the Heavenly Pill Immortal Lord, as detailed as possible. Also, inquire about the Immortal Mansion of the Ages."

Shen Long instructed.

Since there was a branch of the Hundred Knowledges Tower in the marketplace, gathering information made it much easier.

"Yes, master."

Shen Chan readily agreed.

"Shangguan Jie knew that my husband had mastered the Time Law, yet he dared to invite him to seek treasures. He must have some backing."

Chu Buyu analyzed.

Shangguan Jie must have had some backing; otherwise, he wouldn’t have invited Shen Long to seek treasures together.

"Having backing is fine, just as long as he has no ill intentions. Otherwise, don’t blame me for being impolite."

Shen Long said nonchalantly.

With the Five Elements Suppressing Immortal Beads in hand, even if Shangguan Jie had cultivated a Supreme Law to great achievement, he wouldn’t be able to withstand it.

"I hope he has no ill intentions. This treasure hunt might be the opportunity to break through our bottleneck."

Chu Buyu showed a look of longing.

Shen Long nodded: "Let’s hope so!"

······

In the Mysterious Fire Pavilion, Shangguan Jie and Shangguan Shuo were discussing something.

"Taoist Friend Qian has mastered the Time Law, and his Divine Skills are substantial. Fairy Chu might also have mastered a Supreme Law. They are certainly not Loose Immortals."

Shangguan Shuo analyzed.

"As long as they don’t want to keep all the treasures for themselves, we can make some concessions. If it comes to a confrontation, we are not to be trifled with either."

Shangguan Jie said sternly.

······

In no time, seven days passed at the Golden Essence Pavilion.

Shen Long and Chu Buyu sat on the chairs, each holding a golden jade slip in their hands, while Shen Chan stood beside them.

"The Hundred Knowledges Tower didn’t even know that the Heavenly Pill Immortal Lord was from the Chen Dao Clan, but Shangguan Jie knew."

Chu Buyu said, puzzled.

"He might have his own sources, or perhaps the Heavenly Pill Immortal Lord hid his identity."

Shen Long speculated, then his tone shifted: "Since Taoist Friend Shangguan is fine, let’s go treasure hunting with them!"

Chu Buyu nodded, took out a Messaging Plate that emitted a red glow, and entered a spell, saying: "Taoist Friend Shangguan, we agree to join you in treasure hunting and are ready to depart at any time."

"Great, we’ll meet at the marketplace’s exit in a quarter of an hour."

Shangguan Jie’s voice echoed.

"It’s a deal."

Chu Buyu agreed and put away the Messaging Plate.

They left the Golden Essence Pavilion and headed to the marketplace exit. It wasn’t long before Shangguan Jie and Shangguan Shuo arrived.

After exchanging a few words, they began walking outward.

Once outside the marketplace, Shangguan Jie summoned a Red Flying Boat, carrying them away from here.
