The approaching night had darkened the surrounding grassland, although the moon provided enough light for the boy to see the senior clearly.
Guo Jiang had imagined Immortality as the highest achievement available to a cultivator, making the Refiner's warning difficult to understand.

The Journey to Valley of the Fairies
Huang watched the city diminish beneath him while considering the responsibilities attached to his Pavilion Guard office.He thought, "My task is to find Su Yan and request an audience, so I must not allow impatience to become disrespect."The vessel continued southward, carrying him above changing terrain as the settlements of eastern Logun gradually gave way to broader countryside.Huang maintained the prescribed course, using the existing navigation arrangements rather than treating the journey as an opportunity for unnecessary experimentation.He had traveled through dangerous regions before, but the present mission required no battle or pursuit of suspicious cultivators.The absence of immediate danger allowed him to concentrate upon the practical details of approaching a secluded specialist.He considered how to introduce himself, deciding that openly c
From Memory to Mission
Years passed, and the young traveler gradually became the powerful cultivator who eventually reached eastern Logun and inherited the regional seat.His achievements brought him to Banxiang and later half-step Immortal, but the Grey-Robed Refiner's advice never entirely disappeared from memory.Back at Eastern Mansion, Guo Jiang considered that childhood conversation after instructing Hong, Huang, and Lan to search for an accomplished alchemist.His present advancement made the lesson increasingly relevant, because the threshold of true Immortality no longer seemed impossibly distant.He knew that martial power alone would not necessarily provide the knowledge required to live independently among experienced Immortals in Wonderland.During his youth on Bingdao, Guo Jiang had received elementary instruction in alchemy and learned some basic principles of medicinal refinement.<
Three Disciplines for Wonderland
Young Guo Jiang remained beside the rock, listening as the Grey-Robed Refiner explained why determination alone could not prepare him for Wonderland.The approaching night had darkened the surrounding grassland, although the moon provided enough light for the boy to see the senior clearly.Guo Jiang had imagined Immortality as the highest achievement available to a cultivator, making the Refiner's warning difficult to understand."Senior, if someone has already become an Immortal, why would he still need anything beyond cultivation and martial strength?"The Grey-Robed Refiner considered the question carefully, recognizing that the boy had not yet encountered a society filled with Immortal practitioners."Because reaching a higher world does not mean becoming superior to everyone living there, especially when its inhabitants possess their own extraordinary abilities."&nbs
The Grey-Robed Refiner's Lesson
Several decades before Guo Jiang became the Eastern Demigods, he traveled through the northwestern region of Yin Continent as a young boy.His understanding of cultivation was still developing, and the vast world beyond his homeland seemed filled with questions that experienced practitioners seldom explained.During that journey, he encountered the spirit of the Grey-Robed Refiner, an extraordinary senior whose knowledge extended far beyond ordinary martial cultivation.Their conversation took place upon an open grassland, where the evening wind moved gently through the vegetation beneath a gradually darkening sky.The sun had descended toward the distant horizon, leaving the surrounding plains illuminated by the last warmth of daylight.Young Guo Jiang listened attentively as the Grey-Robed Refiner discussed the path of cultivation and the extraordinary achievements awaiting det
Three Guards Beneath One Master
Hong, Huang, and Lan rested beneath an open pavilion inside Eastern Mansion, taking a brief interval between their assigned duties and martial training.The surrounding courtyard remained quiet, with the familiar arrangement of stone paving and practice space offering suitable conditions for sword cultivation.All three men held active Pavilion Guard offices under Guo Jiang, although their temperaments differed considerably despite sharing similar responsibilities.Hong was the first to disturb the silence, glancing toward the secluded chambers where their master spent much of his time."Have either of you noticed that His Excellency's spiritual presence has changed whenever he emerges from cultivation?"Lan looked toward him briefly before returning his attention to the sword resting across his knees."I have noticed that his movements remain controlled, but
The Five Rulers' Approaching Contest
Time passed after the confrontation above the eastern sea, and the disturbances that had troubled Logun gradually ceased demanding immediate attention.Across the continent, the approaching competition among the Five Rulers became an increasingly important concern for powerful cultivators and regional authorities.The gathering had long been anticipated, because the rulers' relative strength would affect both reputation and access to valuable resources.Those connected with the contest understood that preparation required more than public declarations of confidence or ceremonial acknowledgment of established rank.Cultivation remained the central foundation of their authority, and every ruler possessed reasons to refine his abilities before facing the others.Although different regions continued managing their ordinary affairs, no major crisis presently demanded direct interventi
