Running A Cemetery in North America-Chapter 452 - 323: Queen Mother of the West!
Laozi’s "Dao De Jing" says: Seen but unseen is called Yi, heard but not heard is called Xi, grasped but not felt is called Wei.
No one knows what the insides of the Realm of Xi Yi, colorless and silent, truly look like.
Those who enter never appear again.
Sun Yan wandered aimlessly in the Realm of Xi Yi for an unknown length of time.
Suddenly, he noticed a tree ahead.
In such a place, the existence of a tree instantly piqued Sun Yan’s interest.
He hurried forward with large strides, but whenever he was about to approach the tree, it instantly appeared a hundred meters away.
"Hmm?"
Sun Yan appeared puzzled, witnessing such strange occurrences for the first time.
He refused to believe it and chased again.
Yet with persistent effort, Sun Yan still couldn’t get close to the tree.
After a long time, Sun Yan chose to give up the pursuit.
"True Monarch of Pure Origin and Mysterious Dao? Monkey King? Three Altar Sea Assembly Great God?"
Sun Yan tried calling out again but received no response from his cemetery guardians.
In the past, if he had any issues, the three Great Gods would certainly have responded immediately,
but now there is no reaction, perhaps because he has fallen into the Realm of Xi Yi.
Immediately, Sun Yan decided not to waste effort further, sitting cross-legged and taking out his notebook to examine.
Preventing strange events, the notebook would often provide corresponding tasks.
Perhaps a new task could be triggered right now.

In flipping through the notebook, indeed a new task appeared that Sun Yan hadn’t seen before. 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮
With familiarity towards new tasks in the notebook, Sun Yan immediately tapped to check.
Instance Task [Seal Guardian]
Task Difficulty: ☆
Task Description: The Immortal Family paid a terrible price to leave a seal protecting this realm, but as years have passed, more people have forgotten the past and tried to break the seal, ending this End of Dharma Era, seeking vitality, but vitality also comes with danger. As the only contemporary immortal, you must take on the duty of guarding the seal.
Task Requirements: Stand guard at the source of the seal, preventing anyone from trying to destroy it
Task Reward: Longevity and Immortality
"This...!"
Sun Yan was shocked to discover the task’s difficulty was so low.
Yet the reward is so precious.
Longevity and Immortality, the age-old dream of countless souls.
Emperors, generals, merchants, and the wealthy have all longed for immortality, yet no one has ever achieved it.
But now, this opportunity is before Sun Yan.
However, there’s no such thing as a free lunch; if immortality comes easily, surely there are some undisclosed downsides.
Sun Yan pondered for a moment, fostering curiosity towards the source of the seal.
During his period as Tomb Guardian, exploring various matters,
he’s learned about the Creation Bell and Cauldron and the Immortal Family seal, and now the source of the seal appears; as Tomb Guardian, he has every reason to find and explore this place.
"But where is the seal source? Could it relate to the Realm of Xi Yi here?"
Sun Yan looked around, full of doubt.
Since it’s an instance task, its goal must be in this location.
Sun Yan thought for a while and immediately released incense ash magical power, spreading it outward.
After an indeterminate amount of time, a movement caught Sun Yan’s attention.
He immediately headed in that direction, where the tree previously unreachable reappeared in his sight.
It was a pine tree, surrounded by three bluestones at its base, stone surfaces overgrown with moss, seeming out of place in the Realm of Xi Yi.
At that moment under the pine tree appeared a man dressed in a dark black robe.
Golden dragons adorned the robe, clearly marking the man’s extraordinary status.
"You have the Immortal Family’s protection on you, maintaining consciousness in the Realm of Xi Yi. This Lishan Mausoleum is not where you should come; the Creation Bell and Cauldron pertains to the human world seal, should a leak appear, the revival of longevity species would plunge the world into chaos, consequences beyond your bearing."
The man glanced at Sun Yan, speaking calmly.
"The Creation Bell and Cauldron placed in the right hands can be protected more safely." Sun Yan replied without hesitation.
