Huangshan mountain is located in the Anhui province of China. Originally named Yishan, it was later renamed Huangshan following stories that the Yellow Emperor had once practiced alchemy there.

Huangshan has always been known as one of the most extraordinary mountains in the world. When Xu Xiake climbed Huangshan, he praised, "After climbing Huangshan, there is definitely no other mountain in the world with such a breathtaking view!" Later, people refurbished this phrase into, "After seeing the Five Sacred Mountains, don't bother looking at other mountains; after returning from Huangshan, don't bother looking at the Sacred Mountains!"

After accepting the mission, Gui Bin took a military plane directly from Shanghai to Anhui. Upon arrival in Huangshan City, he chose not to use any transportation for the sake of respect. Gui Bin ascended the main peak of Huangshan alone to meet the old immortal.

Since the old immortal summoned the shadow of the God Taiyi at Mt.Tai to shatter the extraterrestrial meteorite, he claimed to have exhausted too much energy. As a result, he secluded himself on the Tiandu Peak, one of the three main peaks of Huangshan.

After such a long time, it was likely that the old immortal had fully recovered. However, the Chinese government would not disturb the old immortal's seclusion unless absolutely necessary. Instead, the high-ranking officials admired him as a transcendent immortal, living a life of leisure, unconcerned about worldly affairs.

This time, Gui Bin was sent here because a Western angel had entered Chinese territory. The government was concerned about this and wanted Gui Bin to investigate, disturbing the old immortal's peaceful life.

"How can I not speak kindly to the old immortal? Since he doesn't compete for worldly power, it's the best outcome for our leaders."

Gui Bin thought deeply as he climbed the mountain. He knew that the higher-ups were afraid that the old immortal might seize power with his invincible strength. Seeing that the old immortal had no interest in worldly matters, they were delighted, eager to fulfill any request the old immortal might have.

After more than two years of supernatural developments, governments worldwide concluded that only beings like the old immortal and Shinto priest, as well as Western Valkyrie and angel, would likely reside on Earth for an extended period.

True gods, like Christ, who only descended for specific reasons, or indifferent beings like the great god Odin, who didn't care about Earth at all, were unlikely to appear frequently.

Many scholars speculated on this issue and concluded that perhaps the universe was too vast, and Earth was comparatively insignificant. Therefore, true gods wouldn't pay attention to it. At most, beings like China's old immortal might reside for a long time.

Regardless, beings like these semi-divine entities were not something ordinary humans could deal with. Just one of them could easily destroy any country on Earth.

"But I remember that this old immortal used to need the country to provide some resources. At that time, domestic experts even speculated that he had a group behind him. Why doesn't he need anything now?"

Gui Bin focused on the matter of the old immortal and didn't have time to appreciate the unique mountains and rocks. However, after thinking for a while, he couldn't figure it out and could only attribute it to these extraordinary beings being beyond the understanding of ordinary people.

Of course, Gui Bin didn't know that the reason the old immortal no longer needed resources was because Louie had achieved self-sufficiency in the parallel world. Initially, he plundered resources from Earth to expedite his development, but as his progress matured, he no longer required those things.

In ancient times, the Tiandu Peak was known as the "Gathering Place of Immortals," hence its name. As one of Huangshan's three main peaks, both its immortal wonders and its name perfectly suited the identity and status of the old immortal.

Although the old immortal concealed himself here, the government couldn't completely ignore him. Detailed records of the old immortal's residence were available, and Gui Bin, after a series of events, had trained his body exceptionally well. Climbing the mountain was not a challenge for him. When he reached the summit of the Tiandu Peak, he arrived at the ‘Immortal Realm in the Sky’. He then traversed several hundred meters along dangerous paths that ordinary tourists wouldn't take, finally reaching a wooden house nestled in the mountains and ridges.

Outside the wooden house, an old man in Ming Dynasty attire stood with his back facing Gui Bin. Mist swirled around the old man, and his back was straight, resembling a majestic mountain range. Although he didn't speak, his upright figure made Gui Bin feel uneasy. Subconsciously, he slowed his pace, lowered his head, experiencing an instinctive fear ingrained in his genes, as if facing a higher life form, causing his body to tremble involuntarily.

After lingering for a while, Gui Bin approached the old man, stopping a few meters behind him. He was about to greet him with clenched fists when he saw the old man turning around on his own.

The old man still had the same youthful appearance with white hair, graceful and gentle. However, Gui Bin dared not relax at all.freewe bnovel .com

Although he had met this elder before and had a private conversation with him, Gui Bin knew his own capabilities well and dared not be presumptuous in front of him.

"Little kid, you came this time to find out why the Western angel came to this country, right?"

The old man spoke slowly.

Gui Bin was startled and blurted out, "You knew?"

As soon as the words fell, he regretted them, feeling that they were too presumptuous. Wasn't this the same as questioning the old man?

However, the old immortal didn't get angry. With a gentle smile typical of an old man, he said, "Although I am skilled in martial arts, I have also mentioned that I am a Taoist. I have some knowledge of astronomy and numerology."

Gui Bin suddenly understood. In myths, it was said that immortals could predict the future, knowing what would happen in the next five hundred years. It seemed that this old immortal could figure out the purpose of Gui Bin's visit. It wasn't so surprising after all.

Ignoring Gui Bin, the old immortal turned around again, his tone calm yet carrying dignity. "The purpose of that angel coming here is not a secret. Mainly, in a country in the northeast direction, there is an aura of evil gods. This aura made the angel uneasy, so she came here to take a look. At the same time, she also wants to meet me."

"After all, she is just an angel bestowed with power by the gods, considered a junior to me. Since she came politely, as a country known for etiquette, we should wholeheartedly entertain her."

Upon hearing the words of the old immortal, Gui Bin's mind raced with thoughts.

For example, from the old immortal's words, he could sense the indifference of the old immortal towards the Christian nun. It was probably because the nun was directly bestowed with power by God, while he attained his strength through his own cultivation. Hence, there might be a significant gap between them.

Additionally, the old immortal mentioned a country in the northeast direction. Was it North Korea or South Korea? But regardless of which one, this information was already sufficient.

Moreover, at this point, Gui Bin had vaguely understood that the incident was happening in South Korea. As the director of the Special Operations Division, he had access to numerous classified intelligence, such as knowing that a forbidden book was currently in the hands of a cult leader in South Korea, and that book was precisely for summoning evil gods. This aligned perfectly with what the old immortal had mentioned.

For Gui Bin, who was well aware that the old immortal rarely left Huangshan, the fact that he could be aware of worldly events added to his awe.𝑓𝓇𝘦𝘦𝓌𝘦𝑏𝘯𝘰𝑣𝘦𝘭.𝑐𝘰𝑚

"So, the nun came to China because of the situation in South Korea."

Thinking this, Gui Bin was unsure about what he should do next. The tasks assigned by the organization seemed to have already been completed by him.

"When that angel arrives, I will personally meet with her."

While Gui Bin was still pondering on how to initiate a conversation with the old man, he was stunned upon hearing this statement. Soon after, he was filled with joy and anticipation. With the old immortal personally involved, the government wouldn't have to worry about the Christian nun anymore!

"Thank you so much, Mr. Zhang!"

Gui Bin quickly bowed in gratitude.
