"Can it work?" Pan Wang asked.
Becoming an emperor is the ultimate goal of every immortal king, but unfortunately, they have lived for countless years and still have not found that path.
"Only I can do this, so don't even think about it. Besides, collecting the materials isn't easy either. You should know that even I, a quasi-Immortal Emperor, almost got lost in the Boundary Sea."
Lin Qing still feels a little uneasy when she thinks about it now.
"Quasi-Immortal Emperor? Isn't the Immortal Emperor above the Immortal King? Why is there a Quasi-Immortal Emperor?" Pan Wang asked in confusion.
"If there are Quasi-Immortal Kings, why are there no Quasi-Immortal Emperors? Most importantly, Quasi-Immortal Emperors are already the pinnacle of this realm. If one wants to break through to the Emperor level, one must find another way."
"Enough with the nonsense. Will you give me your essence blood or not? I can trade something for it," Lin Qing said, looking at Pan Wang.
Pan Wang remained silent, deep in thought. Lin Qing did not disturb him, and simply waited.
After a long silence, Pan Wang spoke: "I'll give it to you, no need for an exchange. I only have one request."
Lin Qing: "What request do you have?"
"The greatest upheaval in history is about to begin."
"You say you have the cultivation of a quasi-Immortal Emperor, which must surpass any Immortal King. Can you then protect this realm?" Pan Wang asked.
"Oh? This is your request?" Lin Qing was surprised.
“Indeed, if turmoil comes, our Immortal Realm may not be able to hold out. At that time, the universe will collapse and all living beings will perish, which is something I do not want to see,” Pan Wang nodded and said.
Lin Qing pondered for a moment, then raised his head and said, "Okay, I agree."
"Good, Dragon King is indeed a man who cares about the world." Pan Wang laughed heartily, and then presented a drop of sealed essence blood to Lin Qing.
"It seems you know my background." Lin Qing chuckled as he accepted it.
"The founder of Dragon Court used a miraculous array to block dark matter for decades and saved countless lives. Your name has long been known throughout the Immortal Realm."
Pan Wang had a big smile on his face.
"Really? I'm already this famous?" Lin Qing seemed a little surprised.
"The Peach Banquet will be held in a few days. I wonder if the Dragon King would do me the honor of attending?" Pan Wang invited.
"It's my honor." Having obtained the essence blood, Lin Qing wouldn't refuse him.
After leaving Panwang Cave, Lin Qing headed towards the arena.
We have three more days. I'll take Xiaoxue and Shihao to explore the city, enjoy some delicious food, and stock up on some prepared dishes.
What he has stored up now is mostly food ingredients, both raw and cooked. There are not many left, only enough to last for a dozen years.
As soon as Lin Qing arrived at the Chaos Arena, he heard an unusually arrogant voice coming from inside.
"Alas, life is as lonely as snow. I never thought that in this vast Immortal Realm, I would not be able to find a single person who can fight me. How lonely it is to be invincible," Shi Hao said with a worried expression.
"You brat from the lower realm, you're really too arrogant."

"Yes, that's too arrogant. Where are they? Where are all the geniuses? Go up and teach this despicable guy a lesson."
"Why don't you two go up? I remember you two are probably the pride of the XX and XX families."
"Cough cough! We recently explored a dangerous place and were seriously injured. We are not fit to fight." As they spoke, they coughed up blood and their faces were extremely pale, as if they were indeed still recovering from serious injuries.
"Ha!" someone scoffed.
"Injured? It's alright, my sister Xiaoxue's medical skills are unparalleled, your little injury will heal in no time." Shi Hao pointed at the two people and said.
"Let me heal you." Xiaoxue, sitting below the stage, smiled and waved her hand, casting a healing spell on the two of them.
Instantly, their complexions returned to a rosy hue, and they showed no signs of injury.
“You have recovered. Come on, this time I can let both of you come up together, and I will let you use your feet.”
Shi Hao didn't give the two a chance to refute him. He jumped off the arena, grabbed the two, and flew up.
"No matter how much immortal essence you offer, I won't compete if it's less."
The two men exchanged a glance and were about to say, "Well, we'd also love to have a fight with you, but unfortunately, we're really not good enough to offer."
Their meaning was very clear: you said you wouldn't compete if you lacked resources, well then, we have no resources, let's see if you still compete.
Before Shi Hao could even speak, his subordinates began to offer their support:
"Well done, you two. It's just cultivation resources, I'll give you some."
"Yes, I'll bet some too."
"I bet everything."
“”
The subordinates said indignantly that in the end, the resources combined were not less than those of the previous person.
"Alright, I accept. You two go ahead. I'll tie my own hands." Shi Hao stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the two confidently.
"Brother X, things have come to this point, we have no choice but to go for it."
"Let's go."
One minute later.
"Ah, ah!" Two screams rang out.
The two then flew off the arena.
"How lonely it is to be invincible. I'll accept these cultivation resources," Shi Hao said with a smile.
"I'm not saying this to be mean, but everyone here is trash." Shi Hao activated the group sarcasm function.
Instantly, the crowd below erupted in commotion, and judging from their expressions, it seemed they were about to launch a coordinated attack.
Even Lin Qing wanted to punch Shi Hao after hearing those words.
The reason Shi Hao was so arrogant was simply because Lin Qing was there; otherwise, Shi Hao would never have started the group taunting.
Lin Qing came to Xiao Xue's side, looked at Shi Hao on the stage and said, "Kid, you're pretty arrogant, but I like it."
"Uncle Dragon King, you've arrived." Shi Hao flew down from the arena and came to Lin Qing's side.
"Uncle Dragon King, I've missed you so much! It's been decades since we last met," Shi Hao chuckled.
"Yes, it's been decades. Not bad, you're almost an immortal now," Lin Qing praised.
"No way, I'm still far from that level," Shi Hao said modestly.
"Young master, have you got it?" Xiaoxue asked.
Lin Qing laughed and said, "Got it. Come on, I'll take you to eat some delicious food in Panwang City."
"Sigh, I've won more than ten games in a row, but I haven't met a single opponent who can handle me," Shi Hao shook his head and sighed.
"Uncle Dragon King, let's go!" After a sigh, Shi Hao immediately smiled.
"Don't go." A group of people surrounded Shi Hao and his two companions.
"Insolence!" Lin Qing's face turned cold.
Suddenly, a trace of the aura of a quasi-Immortal Emperor overflowed, and with a whoosh, a group of people instantly fell to the ground, their faces filled with extreme fear.
"Let's go!" Lin Qing led the two away.
After a long while, these people finally stood up, and one of the prodigies asked tremblingly, "Was that...was that a Celestial King?"
The innkeeper of Chaos Inn wiped the cold sweat from his forehead: "My little ancestor, you say you have a Celestial King behind you, what kind of level am I supposed to draw?"
The innkeeper thought to himself that he should find an opportunity to apologize to Shi Hao, since their inn took a large cut of the resources Shi Hao had gambled on.
"Uncle Dragon King, have you been in the Immortal Realm for all these decades?" Shi Hao asked while eating the delicious food.
Lin Qing said, "That's right, the matter is over. Pan Wang invited me to the Peach Banquet, and afterwards, I will return to the mortal realm."
"Okay, okay. Everyone misses you." Shi Hao said with a grin.
"You must have heard about some of the major upheavals," Lin Qing said calmly.
Shi Hao said, "Yes, I know a little. The Lord of the Forbidden Zone and the two seniors told me some things."
This time, those who entered the Immortal Realm with Shi Hao were none other than the Lord of the Forbidden Zone and the hand bones and eyeballs from the Xiling Realm.
Lin Qing nodded: "You need to become an immortal as soon as possible. The Lord of the Forbidden Zone will help you."
The opportunity for Shi Hao was to become an immortal after nine lifetimes. He had lived for hundreds of thousands of years, but only ten years had passed in the present world.
"Understood, Uncle Dragon King."
"By the way, Xiao Hao, is Huang Die with you now?" Xiao Xue suddenly asked.
"No, the Imperial Butterfly is cultivating in the lower realm, at the Dragon Court headquarters. Sister Xiaoxue, why are you asking about the Imperial Butterfly?" Shi Hao asked, puzzled.
"To accomplish something significant, I need a drop of the Royal Butterfly's essence blood." Although he was anxious, Lin Qing could still hold back for the next few days.
"Oh." Although he was a little confused, Shi Hao didn't ask any further questions.
Over the next few days, Lin Qing took Shi Hao and Xiao Xue around, eating all kinds of delicious food, and showing off and getting slapped in the face quite often.
What delighted Lin Qing the most was that he actually managed to buy an Eight Treasures Tiger in Panwang City.
Most importantly, this Eight Treasures Tiger is female, while the one on Little White is male, so they can be paired up and reproduce.
Lin Qing was so happy that he directly promoted the patriarch of the small family that sold the Eight Treasures Tiger to a True Immortal, although his combat power was not as good as his own.
But he was, after all, a true immortal, and instantly, the small family became a large family.
"Congratulations, Uncle Dragon King, on completing the last of the Eight Ancient Treasures. Shall we have something nice to celebrate?"
Ever since Lin Qing treated him to the Eight Ancient Delicacies last time, Shi Hao has been thinking about Lin Qing's food. He's not afraid of finishing it all, because Uncle Dragon King's family will have a whole clan of them.
Lin Qing said generously, "No problem. We'll have plenty of Eight Treasure Chickens and Eight Treasure Carp. As for the rest, just a few will do, since we're still in the peak breeding season."
Immediately, the three of them began a feast of seven treasures, except for the absence of the Eight Treasures Tiger.
The peach orchard is large and beautiful, with glistening green leaves, pink peach blossoms, and fallen petals, while the bright red fruits exude a fragrant aroma.
The guests in each area are different; there are areas for True Immortals and areas for cultivators from the Human Realm, and the fruits offered are also different.
