Chapter 762: Chapter 359: Danxia Star Domain, Cangyan Star_2
“…”
The cultivators communicated through their divine sense, each whispering to their own acquaintances and friends; so of them had a glint of greed flickering in their eyes.
Lu Yi and his companions did not pay any attention to this. They looked around and then Lu Yi said, “This place is not far from the star map left by that senior. Let’s find a place to stay first, then ask around.”
The Ling Luo Peak Master and the others nodded slightly.
Jian Ruyu frowned and transmitted a ssage to Lu Yi, “So people’s gazes seem a bit malicious, are you sure there’s no problem, perverse junior brother?”
Lu Yi chuckled, “It’s fine, don’t worry, I’m here.”
Jian Ruyu nodded and said no more.
Jian Ruyu always had great trust in Lu Yi.
Soon, they found an inn and, after paying with star marrow, settled down there.
They rented a suite.
As soon as they entered the room, they felt an abundance of spiritual energy, to which Donggong Ming Yue exclaid in surprise, “No wonder the rooms here are so expensive. I didn’t expect them to have such a high-level spirit gathering array.”
Liu Ningshuang and the others also nodded slightly.
Although this spirit gathering array was not as good as the one on the White Jade Skyship, it was not much inferior.
The Ling Luo Peak Master even sighed, “When I read the information before, I didn’t quite believe that Danxia Star Domain could really be so impressive. I didn’t expect it to be true; this kind of inn could only be found in a few places in Sky Falling Star Domain.”
Lu Yi smiled, “After all, this place has quite a few Immortal Venerable-level powerhouses… Let’s rest for the night, and then tomorrow we’ll all go and investigate together.”
Hearing this, Liu Ningshuang and the others nodded slightly again.
Afterward, Lu Yi pulled Liu Ningshuang and the other four back to the room with a sly smile, leaving the Ling Luo Peak Master alone in the wind, feeling both embarrassed and annoyed.
He really didn’t treat her like an outsider.
……
Early the next morning, the group made their way to the Inn’s first floor, which housed a huge dining hall. The inn served delicious dishes, all of which were high-grade Immortal Treasures and Immortal Brews.
Of course, none of this was cheap.
But what Lu Yi was least short of was star marrow, and being an Immortal Chef himself, he was keen to try the specialties of other regions. After ordering a whole table of food, Lu Yi began to eat while observing the cultivators around him.
The consumption level of this inn was high, so the cultivators able to reside here were not weak; the weakest were at least of the Profound Immortal level, with several strong individuals of the Golden Immortal level present, and Lu Yi even faintly sensed the presence of an Immortal Monarch-level aura.
This sort of powerhouse was rare in the Sky Falling Star Domain, and he didn’t expect to encounter one so soon here.
As Lu Yi was observing the cultivators around him, he noticed a few who were occasionally watching them. His perception was incredibly sharp, allowing him to feel that these cultivators harbored so malice towards them.
Lu Yi guessed that these cultivators had probably seen them arriving on the White Jade Skyship the day before and had followed them here.
Lu Yi didn’t pay too much attention to it. Although a few of these cultivators were Golden Immortal-level powerhouses, in his eyes they were still not a concern.
He quickly settled on a target, a silent Golden Immortal cultivator drinking alone.
The man was middle-aged with white hair and two long horns on his forehead, emitting a demonic aura, clearly a mber of the Demon Clan.
Lu Yi approached with a jar of Immortal Brew and sat down in front of the demon clan’s Golden Immortal, smiling lightly, “Fellow Daoist, care to share a drink together? My treat.”
The demonic cultivator looked up at Lu Yi, then at the jar of alcohol in his hand, which exuded an extrely rich fragrance. He raised an eyebrow, “Rock Heart Brew, you are quite generous, fellow Daoist.”
Rock Heart Brew was the best drink offered by the tavern, costing twenty thousand star marrow for just one jar; for other cultivators, even those of the Golden Immortal Realm, it would be unthinkably extravagant.
But for Lu Yi, Star Marrow was rely a number; he hardly had any use for it now since he used Star Cores for cultivation.
Upon hearing the demon cultivator’s words, Lu Yi chuckled lightly, “Fine wine is priceless. I noticed Taoist Brother drinking alone, which seems a bit lonely. Isn’t it better to have more people drinking together?”
The demon cultivator fell silent for a mont, then laughed softly and said, “If that’s the case, then I won’t be polite anymore. I am Long Cang.”
“So it’s Taoist Long. I am Lu Yi.” Lu Yi poured two full glasses of wine, handed one to Long Cang, and the two clinked their glasses before draining them in a single gulp.
Closing his eyes, Long Cang savored the fragrance of the wine, then exclaid, “Indeed, it’s a fine wine.”
Lu Yi chuckled and said, “It’s not bad.”
In Lu Yi’s view, the wine was just so-so. As his cultivation base improved, he had thrown a large amount of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures into his Inner World.
With these Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, Lu Yi could experint with making various kinds of Immortal Brews at will.
The Immortal Brews he could make now were already at the Immortal Monarch Level. Even Immortal Monarchs would feel its effects when drinking them, whereas this Rock Heart Brew, though not bad, was only at the Golden Immortal Level.
Moreover, it was barely at the Golden Immortal Level, and Lu Yi could taste many flaws with just one sip.
In his opinion, the wine was just so-so.
Hearing Lu Yi’s comnts, Long Cang’s composed face showed a trace of astonishnt. He raised his eyebrow and chuckled, “It seems that Taoist Brother has tasted better wines, to the point where even the Rock Heart Brew seems rely ‘not bad’ to you.”
Lu Yi smiled, “Indeed, I’ve had the fortune to taste better wines. Is Taoist Brother Long Cang from the Cangyan Star Region? This place is quite prosperous; there should be better wines, right? It shouldn’t be hard to get a taste of them.”
“Hahaha, Taoist Lu is overestimating .” After hearing this, Long Cang replied with a bitter smile, “Even this Rock Heart Brew costs twenty thousand Star Marrow, not to ntion better wines. Star Marrow is precious and scarce, barely enough for cultivation, let alone enjoying these luxuries. I’m already content drinking this Rock Heart Brew today.”
Lu Yi smiled, “I see. Next ti, I’ll send so fine wine to Taoist Brother Long Cang. I’m sure you’ll be satisfied.”
Upon hearing this offer, Long Cang raised an eyebrow and chuckled, “Taoist Lu is being too generous.”
He took another sip of wine, “I suppose Taoist Lu has approached for a reason, right? Since it’s over this Rock Heart Brew, I’ll tell you anything I know that I can share.”
Lu Yi chuckled lightly, “Thank you, Taoist Brother. Indeed, I have sothing I’d like to ask you about.”
Saying so, Lu Yi made a gesture, and the Spiritual Energy twisted, forming an image of soone from the Remnants of Red Clan. He looked at Long Cang, watching his reaction, and inquired, “Has Taoist Brother ever seen this race before?”
Upon seeing the image, Long Cang frowned slightly in recollection, then shook his head, “I’m afraid I’m going to disappoint Taoist Lu, I’ve truly never seen this race.”
Hearing this, Lu Yi felt sowhat disappointed but chuckled, “No matter, it’s no big deal. Even if I haven’t received any news, making the acquaintance of Taoist Brother Long Cang is fortunate in itself.”
“Hahaha, for Taoist Lu’s sake, I’ll inquire with my clan once I return. My Canglong Clan has so influence in the nearby areas. If this race truly exists in the nearby star regions, I should be able to find so information,” Long Cang said with a slight smile.
Lu Yi’s eyes brightened, “Then I’ll trouble Taoist Brother. A toast to you!”
“Hahaha, Taoist Lu is too polite,” Long Cang raised his glass.
The two drank and chatted away.
Lu Yi inquired about the situation in the areas around Cangyan Star, learning about the state of the Leaving Fire Sect and the general situation in the Danxia Star Domain.
Because of its powerful strength and consistently neutral stance, the entire Danxia Star Domain was free from external enemies and major wars.
The only trouble was probably the Jiuyou Battlefield.
This problem existed in every Star Domain across the universe, so when Lu Yi heard about it, he wasn’t surprised.
The Leaving Fire Sect, Xuanbing Immortal Sect, and Luo Family, the three major powers, had good relations. Naturally, there was competition, and their interactions were quite intricate.
The Canglong Clan was one of the strongest forces in the Cangyan Star Region, boasting an Elder at the Immortal Monarch Peak level. Long Cang himself was at the Golden Immortal Peak, with hope of entering the Immortal Monarch Realm, and he too was an Elder within the Canglong Clan.
With Long Cang’s assistance in making inquiries, Lu Yi felt there was at least so hope of learning about the Remnants of Red Clan in the Cangyan Star Region.
