Chapter 2176: Chapter 2196: Apprentice of the Immortal Palace, Ascend to Heaven in One Step?"_1

"Where are you all from?"

Lin Chen casually replied, "God Falling Immortal Realm."

The waiter blinked, "Never heard of it."

Lin Chen laughed, "It’s a bit far, we crossed over a dozen Immortal Realms to get here."

The waiter chuckled, "Are you here to visit friends? I thought you were here to attend the Donghuang Immortal Conference. Recently, many people have been passing through the Domain Gate to the Ten Thousand Gods Immortal Realm for it."

Lin Chen curiously asked, "Donghuang Immortal Conference, what is that?"

The waiter gave a sly smile, maintaining a bit of mystery. Lin Chen laughed and reached out with a few Spirit Stones.

The waiter accepted the Spirit Stones and dropped his mysterious demeanor, explaining, "It’s a gathering of immortals in the Donghuang Realm, held once every hundred years. It’s a grand event with numerous participating immortals. The gathering lasts for half a month and is a major event in the cultivation world."

Lin Chen finally understood. He had attended events like the Divine Flame Martial Arts Competition before so he knew the gist of this kind of gathering.

The immortals’ interactions, discussions, debates, transactions of various Immortal Medicines and Treasures, and a lot of other miscellaneous things created a lively atmosphere. In essence, it was like a small marketplace in a rural village where people from all around came with things they could trade or sell.

Lin Chen was a bit interested in this kind of gathering, but not too much.

He had Cultivation Techniques if he needed them, he had Immortal Medicine if he needed it, so there wasn’t a specific need for him to attend. If he did, he would just be there for the spectacle.

The waiter enthusiastically continued, "This time, the Donghuang Immortal Conference is attracting countless people not just for the spectacle but also because of the selection for the Myriad Immortal Hall."

Lin Chen’s eyes sparkled, "Myriad Immortal Hall? Selection for what?"

The waiter chuckled, "Apprenticeship for the Immortal Palace. The Myriad Immortal Hall has twelve Immortal Kings, each representing twelve cultivation forces. These forces each control a region and suppress the four realms for the Myriad Immortal Hall. The Hall itself also needs members, so they occasionally recruit apprentices from across the realm. Once selected, these people can directly join the Myriad Immortal Hall, achieving instant success!"

Lin Chen curiously asked, "What treatment will you get if you are selected as an apprentice for the Immortal Palace?"

The waiter answered, "I am not too clear about that. The Myriad Immortal Hall itself has a system. These apprentices will be brought up like direct descendants of the Palace. If they have average potential, they will join the Immortal Palace Guard. If they show immense potential and exceptional performance, they will be assigned important tasks by the Palace. What role they play specifically, I don’t know."

"Regardless if it’s the Immortal Palace Guard or a higher position, that would be like rising to the heavens in one step. Can you imagine if you had a relative or a good friend working in the Palace? How strong would that connection be?"

"Because of this, many Immortal Sects in Donghuang, even from other Immortal Realms, are rushing here. Many Sects are even bringing their most talented disciples in hopes that they will be selected, to share in their future glory."

"Moreover ..."

The waiter lowered his voice, a mysterious gleam in his eyes, "I heard that this selection of apprentices for the Immortal Hall is different from the previous ones ..."

Lin Chen blinked, how could a simple waiter have so much insider information?

Is it really true?

Without a second thought, Lin Chen gave a few more Spirit Stones. The happy waiter whispered, "It’s said that the Immortal Emperor’s son fell, and the Emperor was furious, causing a bloodbath in all the realms. Now the Emperor has calmed down and wants to take on a disciple. The apprentices chosen this time will have the chance to meet the Immortal Emperor. They may even have the chance to become direct disciples of the Emperor ..."

Lin Chen’s eyes widened, could it really be so exaggerated?

He had just stepped into the Ten Thousand Gods Immortal Realm, had barely warmed his seat and they are bringing up the Donghuang Immortal Conference. Then they start talking about the Immortal Emperor and even claim that the Emperor is taking on disciples ...

Although Lin Chen was skeptical, after all, the one spreading the gossip wasn’t a prominent figure in the Immortal Realm but a waiter in a restaurant who had just started his cultivation journey. His strength was quite weak.

Despite his skepticism, Lin Chen was indeed interested.

Since they were holding a selection for Immortal Palace Apprentices, the Myriad Immortal Hall should show up and make a public appearance.

Why not give it a look?

Although Lin Chen had no intention of becoming an apprentice to the Immortal Palace, after all, even though his strength wasn’t high, it wasn’t low either. He didn’t want to be someone’s apprentice and be at their beck and call.

He had promised everyone before this that he would meet at the Blue God Sect and establish a Cave Mansion for everyone, creating a home for everyone so they would have a place to belong.

"The Donghuang Immortal Conference, don’t the people from the other three realms participate?"

The waiter whispered, "It is said that the Immortal Emperor is from the Human Clan, so this selection is more inclined towards the human race. The other three realms are of different races and may not be favoured. However, despite this, many people from the other three realms also arrived, including their geniuses, who intend to participate in this selection ..."
