Wu Tian is currently very depressed and doesn't know what's going on.
Since the last time he discovered this town, he has been treated like an immortal.
As soon as he approached the town, he was spotted by the sentries on the outskirts, and soon the chief and the people around him surrounded Wu Tian. In the end, everyone was bowing and calling him "immortal master"...
When he was greeted at the chief's house, Wu Tian wanted to ask some questions, like how there could be a town in this strange forest, and why there were demons and beasts from the cultivation world here, but the chief said he would discuss it after the banquet.
Now Wu Tian is in his room, staring in surprise at how the people here are so similar to Earthlings. It's strange.
After about an hour, a maid brought a basin of water and asked Wu Tian to wash up before attending the banquet prepared by the chief.
The hall was full of people, and the chief and others were waiting for Wu Tian to appear. The maid led him to the hall, and Wu Tian felt strange under the curious gazes around him, like he was being observed.
The chief coughed and the noisy hall quieted down.
"Immortal, please take a seat," the chief politely invited Wu Tian.
"Chief, you're too polite. It doesn't matter where I sit, it's just a meal."
"No, no. Previous immortals who came here always sat in the seat of honor. We dare not disrespect your prestige."
Huh? Previous cultivators like me have been here? Wu Tian suppressed his thoughts and didn't know what these people wanted specifically. He decided to wait until he learned more about the situation.
"Then, Chief, I won't be polite. Hehe... Everyone, please sit down."
Wu Tian sat in the seat of honor. He didn't need to eat, but it was nice to occasionally try some food. The dishes served were all unfamiliar to him, more varied than the food on Earth. It seems like he'll enjoy himself in the future. He wants to eat his way through the universe. Wu Tian thought triumphantly about his future life.
"Immortal, this is a dragonfruit. It was prepared by the previous immortal who left and told us to give it to you when someone came to collect it next time. I'm sure it's you. Please take it."
"Ah...? Oh, they're all here." Wu Tian's heart was filled with doubt in an instant, but he had something to take, so he took it without hesitation. Many maidservants held jade plates and brought Wulong fruits to Wu Tian's side. Wu Tian pretended to check them and lifted the sand cloth, and a strong spiritual energy instantly filled the hall. The black fruits were as big as peaches on earth, with a total of 10 plates, each with 5 fruits, which meant a total of 50 Wulong fruits. Wu Tian thought that if he absorbed all 50 Wulong fruits, he would directly reach the Yuan Ying stage.
Wu Tian didn't know that these Wulong fruits were fairy fruits, which were meant for the consumption of immortals. If he didn't eat them, he would miss out on absorbing the Water Spirit by a lot, which was a pity.

Wu Tian collected the Wulong fruits with his Qifan Ring and quickly lowered his head to eat vegetables. He was afraid that the chief would notice his expression, but he was extremely happy inside. He had unexpectedly gained benefits for no reason and was happy to acknowledge whoever gave them to him.
After seeing Wu Tian collect the Wulong fruits with his storage ring, the chief waved his hand and asked the maidservants to leave. He then ordered someone to bring three more jade plates.
Something else? Wu Tian's eyes followed the jade plates. The first and third plates were flat, while the second plate was about 20 centimeters tall.
What is it? Why does it feel so familiar? It's like something he felt beside his master.
However, the chief's next words almost made Wu Tian's eyes pop out.
"This is the immortal tool that the previous immortal entrusted us to find. We haven't found many others, but we will send more people to search for them. Please take these first, immortal."
Immortal tool? My god, no wonder it felt so familiar, with the same fluctuations as my master's Liumu Immortal Ring. It must be immortal spirit energy. Although the true element of cultivators wasn't at the level of immortal energy, there were many powerful individuals who could refine these immortal tools with true element. Some of them didn't have immortal spirit energy anymore.
After all, if the immortal tool was found by someone else, it meant that the original owner had lost control of it, and most of them had already died. Even if they hadn't died, they were no longer in this realm. Therefore, cultivators who obtained immortal tools could use them by themselves, provided that they had the ability to refine them.
Wu Tian lifted the first jade plate and saw three immortal swords. "Gulp..." Wu Tian couldn't help but swallow. The second plate contained three immortal armors. Wu Tian's hand trembled, and he quickly withdrew his hand and shivered in his sleeve.
If Wu Tian could still control himself after seeing the first two jade plates, the third jade plate made him want to grab the things and run away.
It was too shocking. What the f*ck was going on? Three immortal rings were too unbelievable. The immortal rings themselves weren't much, but from the people who brought them, it was clear that there must be something inside them. Immortal rings were mostly used by immortals. Even if cultivators got their hands on them, they would be the level of grandmasters, and the contents inside the rings would be exceptional.
Wu Tian tried hard to calm himself down, but his heart kept pounding when his eyes met the three jade discs. He quickly collected everything into his ring and took a deep breath, feeling lucky that he didn't have a heart attack. However, only Wu Tian knew whether cultivators could get heart disease or not.
"I will definitely take these things back to the clan leader, but there are other things that trouble the clan leader." He had to act like he was supposed to. Since the person who wanted these things was certainly a powerful figure, he couldn't let them find out that he was a fake.
"Then I will trouble the immortal. Please have this dish." The clan leader warmly entertained Wu Tian, but he didn't feel like eating at all. He wanted to go back and study the things he got, to see which immortal energy had been exhausted and to figure out how to refine them. He also needed to leave as soon as possible, or he would be caught by the "immortal" who wanted those things.
Before running away, he needed to learn more about the situation. Wu Tian secretly thought to himself.
"Clan leader, this is my first time going out to experience. Hmm, I am not very familiar with the surrounding situation. Could the clan leader introduce it to me?"
The clan leader smiled and said, "Of course, we always introduce it to the immortals who come here for the first few times because every time they are different. There is only one big person who appears every time, and according to the immortals, he is here to guide their cultivation. He wants us to collect the immortal tools left behind by the immortals who fell in cultivation here."
Wu Tian was filled with shock. According to the clan leader, weren't there many immortals who came here to cultivate? Didn't his master say that there were no more immortals in this world? How could they appear here? Could he take the things that belonged to an immortal?
Wu Tian's joy disappeared and was replaced with worry. However, he doubted that the immortals would appear at this time. He needed to learn about the situation first and then escape.
Wu Tian made up his mind and acted accordingly.
