I Built A Family Of Immortal Cultivators

Chapter 293: Peach Blossom Manor

This auction didn't have anything particularly impressive, so Lin Qing left feeling somewhat disappointed.

As he walked out of the auction house, Lin Qing glanced at Lin Yuanwu again. From beginning to end, Lin Yuanwu seemed distracted, as if he had something on his mind.

After thinking about it, Lin Qing didn't ask.

After leaving the auction house, Lin Qing went to a few other places, but returned empty-handed. And so, the day passed like this.

In the following half month, Lin Qing wandered around Peach Blossom Square. As the most famous market in Dali, there were still quite a few good things to be found, and Lin Qing spent almost all of his remaining spirit stones.

During this time, the number of cultivators in Peach Blossom Square also increased.

Although the Five Nations Conference was only known among the Purple Mansion cultivators, some of the younger generation of the Purple Mansion also became aware of it as the conference approached, and the news spread.

On this day, seven days before the actual date, Lin Qing felt that he couldn't stay any longer.

Looking around now, the bustling crowd in Peach Blossom Square was formed by cultivators. Lin Qing dared to say that no market in the mortal world could compare to Peach Blossom Square in terms of the number of people. Although mortals outnumbered cultivators in the world, cultivators had various means of travel that mortals couldn't compare to. Now that news of the Five Nations Conference, a grand event that had never happened in Shangyun Province before, had spread, all the cultivators came.

Even if ninety-nine percent of them couldn't participate, it was still entertaining to watch and relieve the boredom of daily cultivation. Moreover, many of these cultivators had the same idea as Lin Qing, seeking opportunities. The market was bustling all day long.

Looking at the crowd, Lin Qing shook his head, and then left the inn where he had stayed for over half a month with Lin Yuanwu, heading directly to the location of the Five Nations Conference.

In his opinion, it was neither too early nor too late to go now, just in time.

On the way, Lin Qing and Lin Yuanwu both restored their cultivation bases and no longer concealed themselves. The Five Nations Conference was only for Purple Mansion cultivators, including Gold Core cultivators. It would be too conspicuous if they continued to hide.

The location of the Five Nations Conference was a hundred miles away from Peach Blossom Square.

For Lin Qing and Lin Yuanwu, it would only take a short while to reach this distance. When they arrived, Lin Qing was somewhat surprised.

In his mind, the venue for the Five Nations Conference should have been chosen temporarily, and it might even be a temporary structure built on flat ground. But when he arrived and took a look, it turned out to be a huge manor with a considerable number of years behind it.

From the outside, the manor covered a vast area, with a tall wall that was three zhang high. It seemed intentionally preserved, covered in various climbing plants, making the entire wall look lush and green from the outside. The exposed bricks and stones indicated that the wall had been there for quite some time.

Looking inside, there were hundreds of houses of various sizes. It was said to be a manor, but it was almost comparable to a palace in the mortal world.

However, there were some differences from a palace. It wasn't as grand and luxurious inside, but it had a unique charm. Just a few glances made Lin Qing feel much more relaxed.

"Peach Blossom Manor!"

Lin Yuanwu spoke these words, and Lin Qing looked over.

In front of the enormous manor, there was a small wooden sign at the entrance with the words "Peach Blossom Manor" carved on it. Lin Qing had just missed it before.

But now that he saw it, there was no need to explain the origin of this manor. It should belong to the Endless Pleasure Sect and was probably from the same era as Peach Blossom Square.

At this moment, Lin Qing and Lin Yuanwu were still in the air, hundreds of zhang away from Peach Blossom Manor. But when they tried to fly forward, they encountered a great resistance.

Lin Yuanwu was somewhat unable to move, while Lin Qing could barely fly, but not very far.

"Well, it seems we'll have to go on foot," Lin Qing said.

Feeling the restriction of not being able to fly, Lin Qing didn't force it and landed on the ground with Lin Yuanwu, and they began to walk.

Before reaching the entrance of the village, a female cultivator at the Foundation Building stage came to greet them and took the initiative to lead the way.

The scenery inside was even more unique, but Lin Qing's mind was not on that. He curiously asked, "How many people from the Purple Mansion have come in the past few days?"

Upon hearing Lin Qing's question, the female cultivator from the Endless Pleasure Sect smiled and said, "Two senior cultivators have arrived, and there are more than twenty senior cultivators in total. However, senior cultivators with such profound cultivation levels as yours are quite rare."

"Haha."

Lin Qing smiled indifferently, but in his heart, he thought that there were still seven days to go, and already more than twenty people from the Purple Mansion had arrived. It seemed that the final number of Purple Mansion cultivators attending the Five Nations Conference would exceed his imagination.

But Lin Qing had already anticipated this. His three months of experience in Yan, Wei, Chu, and Dali not only brought him many benefits but also allowed him to see the strength of the cultivation world in these countries. It could be said that each country was stronger than their own Zhao country in various aspects, including area, population, and cultivators. There was no place in Zhao country that could compare.

Currently, Zhao country only had six Purple Mansions, and they were the farthest from Dali. The fact that the two of them had come was already quite impressive, and it was unlikely that there would be many people from other countries.

After being asked by Lin Qing, the female cultivator took the initiative to ask, "I wonder where the two senior cultivators would like to stay? There are 318 accommodations in our Peach Blossom Manor, and any requirements from senior cultivators can be met."

"Oh?" Upon hearing this, Lin Qing thought for a moment and said, "Then find us a small courtyard, preferably quiet and secluded."

"Alright, senior cultivators. It's easy to find such a courtyard."

The female cultivator smiled and said, then stopped speaking.

Afterward, she led Lin Qing to a three-story building. Inside were the cultivators from Dali who were in charge of the Five Nations Conference. Lin Qing and Lin Yuanwu had to report here first.

"Two Fellow Daoists have arrived. Please come in quickly."

Before Lin Qing and Lin Yuanwu could enter, someone came out from inside. He had a round face and looked like a ball, but his strength should not be underestimated. He was at the later stage of the Purple Mansion and was extremely enthusiastic at the moment.

"This must be Fellow Daoist Li. The two of us have come from Zhao country to attend the Five Nations Conference together," Lin Qing said, already knowing this person's name from the female cultivator.

"Hahaha." Upon hearing Lin Qing's words, he laughed a few times and warmly welcomed Lin Qing and Lin Yuanwu inside, while the female cultivator waited outside.

"I wonder how the two Fellow Daoists from Zhao country would like to be addressed? Was the beast tide a hindrance in recent years?" After entering, sitting down, the round-faced Fellow Daoist Li asked again.

Lin Qing smiled and said, "We are both from the Lin family in Zhao country. As for the beast tide, it has already receded and is no longer a major problem."

"That's good, that's good." Fellow Daoist Li nodded, and then his gaze towards Lin Qing became somewhat fiery.

"I didn't expect Fellow Daoist to have reached the complete stage of the Purple Mansion. Among the Fellow Daoists I have received in recent days, only you and I have reached the complete stage. I am far behind."

Upon hearing this, Lin Qing smiled faintly, but he didn't dwell on this point and instead asked about the Five Nations Conference.
