Urban Extraordinary Immortal Doctor-Chapter 2216: Ice Emperor City
Sure enough, it didn’t take long before four auras flew in from the distant sky. Moments later, they landed on the four mountain peaks tens of miles away from the entrance of Peach Blossom Fairyland.
The owners of those four auras each released their Divine Sense and began searching the nearby area.
After finding nothing, the four Immortals gathered on one of the mountain peaks and started conversing in low tones.
From their conversation, Fang Bai learned that they were all disciples of Ice Emperor City. Instantly, a murderous intent arose in him. He concealed his aura, blending his form with the surrounding scenery, and quickly approached the mountain peak where they were.
The cultivation levels of the four disciples from Ice Emperor City were all only at the fifth grade of Immortal Venerable Realm, so they couldn’t detect Fang Bai’s presence at all. While speaking, they occasionally shook their heads and sighed, expressing dissatisfaction and complaining about the City Lord sending them to this place.
"Die!"
When Fang Bai was still a hundred feet away from the four Ice Emperor City disciples, he lightly pointed his finger, condensing energy into a sword.
Four blinding golden sword lights seemed to pierce through the void, instantly crossing the hundred-foot distance, slaying the four Ice Emperor City disciples before they could react.
With Fang Bai’s current cultivation level, he didn’t even need to use an Immortal Artifact to easily slay those four fifth grade Immortal Venerable Realm experts.
Pitifully, the four disciples from Ice Emperor City fell to Fang Bai’s hands, dying without even knowing what happened to them.
"Ice Peak Immortal King, right? Wait for me in Ice Emperor City; you’ll be the next to die!"
Fang Bai looked at the four corpses on the mountain peak, with no emotional fluctuation in his heart.
To him, these four Ice Emperor City disciples were just insignificant figures among the many subordinate forces of the Ice River Immortal Emperor; their deaths wouldn’t draw the attention of the Ice River Immortal Emperor.
But if he could kill Ice Peak Immortal King, who controlled Ice Emperor City, it would, to some extent, cause some discomfort to the lofty Ice River Immortal Emperor.
Although Fang Bai was currently powerless to take revenge on the eight Immortal Emperors who besieged him in the past, he is happy to add some trouble to them secretly.
Fang Bai collected the Space Immortal Rings from the four Ice Emperor City disciples, then flicked out a wisp of Immortal Fire, completely destroying their bodies without leaving a trace. Only then did he step on Auspicious Clouds, transforming into a stream of light, and flew toward the Immortal Emperor City.
Being the only Immortal City within hundreds of thousands of miles, Ice Emperor City is extremely vast, with numerous Immortals. Due to the many Cultivation Resource Exchange Markets in the city, which sometimes have King Grade cultivation resources appearing, it is bustling all year round.
When Fang Bai arrived in Ice Emperor City, he found that it had not changed much from a thousand years ago, except there were more Immortals from the Nine Major Heavenly Domains.
Upon entering Ice Emperor City, Fang Bai’s appearance was completely different from before. He wore a black robe, sported a long beard, and looked like a middle-aged Immortal with a Daoist demeanor.
In his previous life, Fang Bai had also been to Ice Emperor City, so he was quite familiar with everything here.
Although Ice Peak Immortal King was at the first grade of Immortal King Realm, in terms of single combat, Fang Bai was confident in killing him.
The current situation was that, although the four generals under Ice Peak Immortal King had fallen to Fang Bai’s hands, there were still two Deputy City Lords at Half-Step Immortal King Realm stationed in the City Lord Mansion, along with numerous disciples at the Immortal Venerable Realm. It wouldn’t be easy for Fang Bai to openly kill Ice Peak Immortal King.
However, Fang Bai wasn’t in a hurry. His purpose in coming to Ice Emperor City was not only to kill Ice Peak Immortal King but also to obtain some high-rank cultivation resources within this Immortal City.
Previously, while cultivating in Peach Blossom Fairyland with the Dongfang sisters, Fang Bai’s cultivation resources were significantly depleted, and the remaining ones he had left with the Dongfang sisters before departing, taking none with him.
Therefore, Fang Bai’s Five Elements Space Ring was now completely empty.
The best place to obtain cultivation resources was still the Cultivation Resource Exchange Market in the Immortal City.
After entering the city, Fang Bai first explored the area around the spacious City Lord Mansion. Using his Divine Sense to investigate, he unexpectedly found that Ice Peak Immortal King wasn’t inside the City Lord Mansion; instead, two Deputy City Lords at Half-Step Immortal King Realm were inside.
Thus, Fang Bai entered the largest cultivation resource exchange market within the city, planning to stay here for a while. After gathering enough cultivation resources, he would wait for the return of Ice Peak Immortal King and then seize the opportunity to act.
"May I ask for what reason the Upper Immortal has come here?"
As soon as Fang Bai entered the Cultivation Resource Exchange Market, seven or eight Immortals eagerly rushed over, surrounding him with smiles on their faces, all displaying a flattering attitude.
"I am both an Alchemist and an Artifact Refiner, intending to rent a stall here."
Fang Bai replied with a smile.
He knew that in many cultivation resource exchange markets in the Immortal Realm, there were always dedicated Immortals providing assistance, earning some cultivation resources in return as compensation.
"I can serve you!"
"I can do it too!"
"I demand very little in return!"
"I demand even less!"
"Please choose me, Upper Immortal!"
"You’ll never go wrong with choosing me!"
...
The cultivation levels of these few Immortals were mostly at the eighth or ninth grade of the Heavenly Immortal Realm. They all hoped to break through to the Immortal Venerable Realm but lacked the cultivation resources for assistance, so they hoped Fang Bai would choose them to help, earning a reward in the process.
Fang Bai saw a young female Immortal with an apple-shaped face standing behind these few Immortals, also shouting "Upper Immortal, choose me." However, due to her cultivation level being only at the fifth grade of the Heavenly Immortal Realm, she couldn’t get closer. Her round face showed a hint of anxiety.
In Ice Emperor City, a place where Immortal Venerable experts were everywhere, a fifth-grade Heavenly Immortal Realm cultivation level was considered very weak. But for someone of this young female Immortal’s age to reach this realm was quite rare.
"You then!"
Fang Bai found the apple-faced female Immortal most pleasing to the eye and pointed to her.
The other few Immortals were greatly disappointed, turning their heads to look at the apple-faced female Immortal, both envious and jealous.
However, Fang Bai’s aura was much stronger than theirs, obviously far surpassing them in strength. Therefore, even though they had grievances, they didn’t dare to say anything, and could only disperse from around Fang Bai, waiting for other Immortals.
"Thank you, Upper Immortal! Thank you, Upper Immortal!"
The apple-faced female Immortal came forward, incessantly thanking Fang Bai.
Since Fang Bai claimed to be both an Alchemist and an Artifact Refiner, such Immortals were extremely rare, so the apple-faced female Immortal dared not neglect, leading Fang Bai to the management office of the exchange market to pay a portion of Immortal Stones, renting a stall that was neither well nor poorly positioned.
Subsequently, she led Fang Bai to that stall, helped him set up the Pill Room, and arranged the stall. Then, following Fang Bai’s instructions, she erected a large sign in front of the stall, which read, "Alchemy and Artifact Refining, choose one of three. If refinement fails, double compensation."
This meant that he would do Alchemy and Artifact Refining for others, and they needed to provide him with three portions of materials, which he would use to refine one. If all three portions failed to refine, he would compensate them double the cultivation resources.
This method Fang Bai had used in other Immortal Cities before and it never failed.
