Far away in the Star Immortal State.
Su Yanjin, as the forty-first disciple of Yi Feng, had been following his master's instructions to undergo a two-month period of spiritual training by experiencing the life of an ordinary person in the Star Immortal State.
Standing at the west city gate, Su Yanjin's expression was focused, and his deanor was as his na suggested—ticulous and serious.
For the past two months, he had been working from nine in the morning to five in the evening, fully imrsing himself in the role of a lowly soldier.
Through this process of self-cultivation, Su Yanjin felt that his ntal state had greatly improved, and he had gained insights that he had previously been unable to comprehend.
Indeed.
His master's advice to experience life at the level of a Earth Immortal to understand the heart of an ordinary person made perfect sense.
However.
The Star Immortal State was currently in a period of turmoil.
Frequent wars with the neighboring Great Sun Immortal Continent had resulted in heavy casualties on the front lines, and the unrest in the rear had caused widespread fear among the people.
"Did you hear? The guards at the southwest gate were killed yesterday. It seems like spies from the Nebula Celestial Continent have infiltrated us again."
"Alas, that's right. Who knows, maybe one day it'll be us who get killed."
"Let's not talk about it anymore. Just focus on our duty."
The city guards whispered to each other, their faces showing a serious expression.
Only Su Yanjin remained expressionless, continuing his duty.
Whether it was the large-scale battles on the front lines or the hidden currents in the rear, he seed completely indifferent.
He continued to work on ti, following his regular schedule.
After finishing his shift, he would wash his hands as usual, change into his own clothes, neatly arranged.
Finally, he would dine at a small restaurant within the city.
Because his master had once said, "Food is the first necessity of the people!"
When he arrived at the restaurant, the waiter was already prepared, as Su Yanjin always ca at the sa ti, neither early nor late.
His order was always the sa.
A plate of about a hundred peanuts, a dish of two ounces of dried beef, and a pot of three taels and eight qian of strong liquor.
Every day was the sa, and even the ti he spent eating was exactly the sa.
Once, the waiter asked him why he always ordered the sa amount. Su Yanjin's answer was, "That's all I can drink."
Life.
Passed by so peacefully.
anwhile, the conflict between the Star Immortal State and the Great Sun Immortal Continent grew more frequent, and the situation beca increasingly severe.
In the main hall of the Star Net Capital City.
A man dressed in a brown robe with a cold and stern face was pacing back and forth.
On the desk was a mountain of intelligence reports.
Xiang Tiannan, the ruler of the Star Immortal State, felt his head was about to explode. There wasn't a single piece of good news; all were bad.
How could he even begin to process this?
The more he read, the angrier he beca, to the point where he wanted to rush to the Great Sun Immortal Continent and destroy it.
But, he couldn't win!
The strength of the Star Immortal State was far inferior to that of the Great Sun Immortal Continent, especially in terms of middle-tier combatants; the gap was too large.
"Lord State Master! Sothing terrible has happened!"
At this mont, the deputy state master Jiang Cheng rushed in, his face filled with panic, holding a jade slip.
"Speak!"
Xiang Tiannan said in a deep voice.
"According to our intelligence, the Great Sun Immortal Continent has dispatched a group of Immortal Realm cultivators who are about to infiltrate our Star Net Capital City..."
Jiang Cheng said gravely.
Upon hearing this.
Xiang Tiannan's face turned furious.
"Hmph, do they think the Star Immortal State is defenseless?"
"We absolutely cannot let them enter the capital city."
"Pass down the order. Have all the garrison troops stay on high alert. For the next few days, no one is allowed to enter the city."
"Yes, I shall obey the order. But..."
Jiang Cheng accepted the command but still looked worried.
"But what?"
Xiang Tiannan asked in a deep voice.
"Lord State Master, most of our city gate guards are at the Earth Immortal level. With the capital city being so large, there are dozens of large and small gate passages. If those Immortal Realm cultivators want to sneak in, it won't be difficult for them."
The deputy state master expressed his concern, knowing that even with full alertness, the defensive effect would be minimal.
