80 Years Of Signing-In At The Cold Palace, I Am Unrivalled

Chapter 207: Becoming Mortal

The ancient city in the one and only oasis throughout the entire Northwest Territory had already become the retirement home of the powerhouses from the Mountain Sea Realm. Each and every cultivator inside was easily stronger than any top powerhouse in the outside world.

The strongest experts outside this oasis were only at the Boundless Realm.

Perhaps they were at the 29th or 30th step of the Boundless Realm.

But none of them were at the King Realm at the moment.

Two months simply just wasn’t enough time for the effects of the hastening recovery rate of the world’s spiritual energy to become evident in the outside world.

As for the people of Oasis Town, the weakest among them was at the King Realm.

Moreover, their rate of improvement was also very fast.

Thanks to the abundant spiritual energy from the Mountain Sea Realm and the complete Great Dao of this so-called main world, their rate of improvement was astounding, to say the least.

For example, the extremely confident Bai Tiandi.

In these two months, he reached the Spirit Platform Realm.

His extreme confidence was built on top of his diligence and peerless talent.

Not wanting to be surpassed too much by Lin Jiufeng, he worked hard at every moment.

Finally, he managed to make a breakthrough into the Spirit Platform Realm last night.

But even so, the next morning, he still obediently went to Old Man Luo’s breakfast shop for some quick breakfast.

After seeing how powerful Lin Jiufeng was these days, Old Man Luo had already given up any thoughts of resistance. In any case, apart from cultivating and trying to comprehend the Great Dao every day, he had nothing else to do.

Therefore, he picked up his old trade.

Breakfast shop!

After few days of preparation, Old Man Luo informed everyone that his breakfast shop was about to open.

He hoped that everyone would come and support him.

Of course, he also informed Lin Jiufeng.

In the morning, Lin Jiufeng woke up and walked into the oasis after two months of absence.

The ancient city in the oasis wasn’t small.

Less than a hundred people lived called it home, making it look empty.

Old Man Luo’s breakfast shop was located at the city gates.

As soon as Lin Jiufeng walked in, everyone’s eyes turned to him.

There was hatred, jealousy, and helplessness in their eyes…

A mixture of complicated emotions.

Lin Jiufeng ignored them.

He walked directly to Old Man Luo’s shop.

There was an empty table and he sat there quietly.

“Sir, what do you want to eat?” Old Man Luo walked over.

He was wearing the clothes of a chef, stained with flour.

He asked with a smile on his face.

“Just give me what you are good at,” Lin Jiufeng replied.

“Okay, please wait a moment.” Old Man Luo slipped away to prepare.

Not long after, a bowl of noodles, two buns, and fried dough sticks were served.

“Sir, please enjoy,” Old Man Luo said.

Lin Jiufeng calmly picked up his chopsticks and leisurely ate.

“It’s good. I didn’t expect you to have such good cooking skills…”

Lin Jiufeng was surprised as he ate the noodles.

“Yes, yes, yes… Before I started cultivating, my father made breakfast for decades and raised my siblings and me through this trade.”

“Naturally, my cooking skills were inherited from him. Unfortunately, after I stepped onto the path of cultivation, it has been more than a thousand years since I last prepared a meal.”

Old Man Luo was both proud and dejected.

The reason why he opened this breakfast shop was partly because he was bored and partly because he thought of his father.

Since he was currently Lin Jiufeng’s prisoner and had nothing much to do, he started his father’s old trade.

“It tastes good. I will be your regular customer in the future.” Lin Jiufeng gave a thumbs up.

“Sir, may I know your honorable name?” Old Man Luo asked.

At this moment, everyone stared at Lin Jiufeng.

Everyone in the ancient city had come to support Old Man Luo.

But right now, they were looking at Lin Jiufeng.

Lin Jiufeng thought for a while before replying, “You can call me Mr. Lin.”

“Mr. Lin, just why exactly are you imprisoning us here?” Fire Lord couldn’t help but ask.

Everyone looked at Lin Jiufeng, wanting to know the answer to this question.

Lin Jiufeng smiled and said, “I am the one who opened the Mountain Sea Realm and I am also the one who let you lot come out from the inside…”

“You lot are very powerful, so once you lot left this place, no matter where you lot went, you lot will be able to reign supreme and rule over a region…”

“As for the ambitious ones among you lot, they might attempt to unify the world.”

“This doesn’t really matter, however, many lives would be lost in the process.

“Those people that would die would’ve been able to live a very long life in this brand-new era under the rule of the Yuhua God Dynasty, they would’ve been able to live the rest of their lives in relative peace and health.”

“But this will only remain true in the condition that I didn’t let you lot emerge into this world. Once you lot are out there, you lot will surely overturn the entire world, along with the Yuhua God Dynasty.”

“In return, the common people will suffer a terrible fate.”

“So for the sake of the common people, don’t you think that I should imprison you lot here?”

Lin Jiufeng slowly explained.

Fire Lord fell silent.

He looked at Lin Jiufeng and asked, “What if we went out and found a place to cultivate quietly instead of trying to rule the world?”

Hearing this, everyone’s eyes lit up.

But Lin Jiufeng smiled and remarked, “Find a place to cultivate quietly? What’s the difference between that place and this oasis?”

Fire Lord was rendered speechless.

“Other than not being able to leave this oasis, I won’t restrict you lot from anything else. You lot are free to do whatever you want, and you can still quietly absorb the spiritual energy of the Mountain Sea Realm from here.”

“You can also try to deepen your comprehension of the Great Dao of this world…”

“Furthermore, you don’t have to worry about getting into conflict with others.”

“Is there a more ideal cultivation paradise than here?” Lin Jiufeng asked.

Everyone didn’t know what to say.

“Do you really think that you can keep resisting the powerhouses of the Mountain Sea Realm?”

Fire Lord was quite irritated.

“I’ll resist for as long as I can. I’m quite confident in myself. You lot should just stay here peacefully. As long as you lot won’t cause any trouble, I won’t bother with you all. Just pretend that I don’t exist.” Lin Jiufeng expressed his demands.

This time, everyone finally nodded.

To be honest, hearing Lin Jiufeng’s words, the oasis didn’t seem to be that bad anymore.

“Then, how long are you going to imprison us for?” Fire Lord asked.

“When it’s time for you lot to leave, I will naturally let you lot leave.”

Lin Jiufeng thought for a while but didn’t give them an exact timeline.

Fire Lord and the others wanted to ask more, but Lin Jiufeng shook his head and refused to answer.

“Have some noodles…”

“Have a taste of Old Man Luo’s cooking. He’s pretty good.”

“I also hope that you lot can develop the talents that you lot had suppressed for the sake of the cultivation path…”

“Treating yourselves as peerless experts all the time will ultimately make you lot too detached from the mortal world. I believe that occasionally becoming mortal through these activities is immensely helpful for anyone’s cultivation.”

Lin Jiufeng imparted a few important bits of the principles of the cultivation path to them.

Cultivation principles weren’t something that one would certainly understand just by cultivating for a long time.

After all, cultivation also needed talent and comprehension.

Although Lin Jiufeng had cultivated for a shorter time than them, his cultivation base was already the most powerful amongst them.

He was more than qualified to guide them.

Becoming mortal!

This was Lin Jiufeng’s recent realization.

He turned himself into an old farmer who quietly planted vegetables, and raised livestock in peace. Through this, he was able to experience the life of a mortal.

This was akin to a bird who spent most of his waking days soaring through the air.

After deciding to land on a branch and rest, the bird was then able to recover which then helped it maintain its momentum even further.

Many of the cultivators listened and learned from Lin Jiufeng’s words.

It wasn’t for any other reason. It was just that Lin Jiufeng was truly powerful.

When those who were truly powerful spoke, there would naturally be people listening to their words. The words of successful people were more reliable than the failures. After all, the former had already succeeded; making their advice much more reliable than the latter.

“I’ve been flying in the sky for so long that I’ve forgotten about how it feels like to be a mortal.”

Fire Lord murmured.

He seemed to have understood something as he looked at Old Man Luo.

He was thinking about what talent he had that he could use to “become mortal”.

“I’ve been flying in the sky since I was born, and I’ve never landed on the ground. I’m indeed a little out of touch with what’s on the ground.” Bai Tiandi also reflected on himself.

He decided to copy Old Man Luo.

Find something to do so that he could calm his heart down and become mortal.

Lin Jiufeng looked at the group of people pondering.

A slight smile appeared on his face as he took out a couple of silver coins, paid the bill, and turned around to leave the ancient city.
