Immortal of the Nine Realms-Chapter 820: Floating Pagoda Realm

"There's no need for such flattery. Are you from the Spiritual Attachment lineage? Your cultivation is quite impressive," said Du Yunxu.

In the mortal realm, many powerful cultivators seek out evil beings to refine through the Spiritual Attachment technique.

Then, these beings could accompany the cultivator through the soul-crossing ritual and arrive in the Underworld. They were considered a common method of self-preservation among Yin Walkers.

After all, no matter how powerful a cultivator was in the mortal world, if they didn't have enough Yin lifespan in the Underworld, they would be much weaker than they really were.

"My lord, you flatter me. My cultivation is nothing compared to yours. I see your extraordinary demeanor. I believe you must be the Day Walker God of the Nether Guards Division," said the blood paper figure.

Du Yunxu nodded lightly. "Indeed. This isn't your first time in the Underworld, is it? Why have I never seen you before?"

The blood-red paper figure showed a smile. "I have been to the Underworld with my previous master before, but rarely did we visit the imperial capital. That's why this is our first time meeting. I am here with my young master this time. It's his first time in the underworld and I'm here to assist him so he doesn't inadvertently stir up trouble due to his ignorance of the rules around here."

Ji Liang stepped forward and cupped his hands in respect. "Junior Ji Liang pays respects to Lord Day Walker God."

The several Nascent Soul cultivators around him from the Great Expansion Dao Sect, the Innate Dao Sect, and the Morning Star Dao Sect also stepped forward to pay their respects. Their gazes were filled with curiosity and awe.

This was their first time crossing through to the Underworld. Naturally, they were filled with both curiosity and reverence for the realm. Moreover, the man before them was the legendary Day Walker God, a top-ranking official in the Underworld!

Du Yunxu nodded lightly and said, "Your cultivation isn't high. While you’re in the imperial capital, try not to offend anyone easily. Since he has experience, it's best to listen to his advice."

Ji Liang and the others' eyes brightened slightly.

This Day Walker God seems very easygoing.

The blood paper figure also noticed this. Its expression eased up a little, and it politely requested, "Would it be possible for me to invite you to a drink? There are some matters I'd like to consult you about."

Du Yunxu furrowed his brows and glanced around, looking thoughtful. After a few moments, he nodded lightly. "Very well, I have nothing pressing today. I'll have a drink with you. It's also a chance to hear about the recent happenings in the mortal realm."

When Fang Chen saw Du Yunxu and the others enter a tavern, he followed them in and took a seat nearby.

The blood paper figure retrieved ten Yin Lifespan Coins and handed them to the waiter, instructing him to bring the best wine and food. Upon seeing the generous offer, the waiter's demeanor became more respectful.

"It's just a drink. Why make such a lavish gesture? Ten years' worth of Yin Lifespan Coins is a big amount," remarked Du Yunxu with a faint smile.

The blood paper figure smiled slightly. "Since I'm inviting you for a drink, Day Walker God, how could I be stingy? I have visited the Underworld many times and have saved up a few Yin Lifespan Coins. If you wish, I can gift you some, my lord."

Ji Liang and the others exchanged glances, their eyes flickering with intrigue.

Du Yunxu remained silent for several moments before chuckling. He openly asked, "What is it? Do you need me to handle something for you?"

The blood paper figure paused briefly, then candidly said, "My lord, to be honest, my young master's journey through the Underworld is a trial. He wishes to visit the Floating Pagoda Realm. However, only a powerful being like yourself could help us enter that realm."

Fang Chen's eyes showed a hint of contemplation. The Floating Pagoda Realm?

He had never heard of this place before. Now that the blood paper figure wanted to visit this realm, it was likely related to Monarch Yan's Dao lineage they had mentioned earlier.

Fang Chen thought, I was appointed as the Day Walker Monarch, which means that Monarch Yan in the Underworld is still in power. How could they allow their own Dao lineage to be scattered? The blood paper figure claimed to be a Yin soldier, yet he seems very different from Du Yunxu and the others....

He sipped on his tea and looked at the blood-red paper figure from the corner of his eyes.

Du Yunxu's expression darkened slightly. He questioned, "The Floating Pagoda Realm? The Floating Pagoda Realm is filled with Yin Demons, some of whom are extremely powerful. Even someone like me would have to be cautious in there or I could end up dead. Your young master is only at the Nascent Soul Realm stage, isn't he?

"You can find Yin Demons in many other places. There is no need to go to the Floating Pagoda Realm. Moreover, the entrance to that place requires the consumption of three hundred years of Yin Lifespan, which is no small cost."

The blood paper figure smiled lightly and responded, "My lord, you may not be aware but my former master had once traveled to that realm and gained some opportunities there that allowed him to break through in his cultivation. As they say, risk and reward go hand in hand. Without any risk, how could it be called a trial?"

It pulled out a bulging purse and slowly pushed it in front of Du Yunxu. Even without opening it, it was easy to tell the purse contained at least five hundred Yin Lifespan Coins.

Five hundred years of Yin Lifespan.

Fang Chen was certain that the blood paper figure was no simple character in the Underworld.

"Well... since it's a trial, choosing the most dangerous place would indeed yield greater rewards. It seems your master's experience in this matter is quite profound. Have I met him before?" responded Du Yunxu ambiguously.

The blood paper figure could sense that Du Yunxu was reconsidering and smiled slightly. It flashed out another purse and pushed it in front of Du Yunxu. Just like the previous one, the purse contained at least five hundred Yin Lifespan Coins.

At the same time, it answered, "My master has not travelled to the Underworld in many years. He is now preparing to transition to becoming a Loose Immortal. I see that you’re quite young. You two probably haven't met."

Du Yunxu as he instinctively sat up straighter. He apologized, "Ah, my apologies, I didn't realize your master was an Ascension Realm senior.”

A faint trace of mockery flashed in the blood paper figure's eyes.

To the people of the Underworld, an Ascension Realm expert was equivalent to a Yin Monarch. Day Walker Gods would naturally have to show respect to individuals of such status. Not to mention, an Ascension Realm expert preparing to transition to becoming a Loose Immortal would certainly command even more respect.

"My lord, this purse contains one thousand Yin Lifespan Coins. After the matter is settled, I am willing to give you another five hundred Yin Lifespan Coins. Would you be willing to do me this favor?" asked the blood paper figure softly.
