Nvlang Venerable still rembers that in the previous life, his master never accepted Immortal Birds or mythical beasts as disciples. Unexpectedly, in this lifeti’s rebirth, the convention was broken.
It seems that this Immortal Ape must have extraordinary qualities, otherwise, with master’s high vision, how could it have caught master’s eye.
"Disciple has advanced and co to find Upper Immortal, hoping Upper Immortal will take in!"
The Golden-Haired Immortal Ape flew close, and upon seeing Fang Bai, it displayed a look of joy, bowing in mid-air towards Fang Bai with a face of devout sincerity.
Flying Crane Venerable and Nvlang Venerable quickly stepped aside, watching this Golden-Haired Immortal Ape from afar, exchanging glances with surprise in their eyes.
They had already discerned that the pure Golden Immortal Essence surrounding the Immortal Ape must indicate an Innate Golden Spirit Root. Although it possesses a second-tier Immortal Venerable Realm cultivation level, the aura it emanates contains a wild power, sufficient to contend with a third-tier Immortal Venerable Realm expert in battle.
"This Immortal Ape has outstanding aptitude; if it receives master’s guidance, its future on the Immortal path will be boundless!"
Nvlang Venerable looked at the gigantic Immortal Ape three zhang tall, thinking to himself.
Fang Bai looked at the golden-haired Immortal Ape in front of him, with a slight smile on his face. Although he liked this ape very much, he did not rush to express his stance and asked, "Are you really certain you want to acknowledge as your master?"
"Yes! Disciple cos sincerely to beco your pupil! I plead for master to accept !"
The Golden-Haired Immortal Ape looked up at Fang Bai once, then prostrated again.
Fang Bai said, "To beco my disciple, you must obey my commands and not have the slightest defiance. Can you do that?"
The Golden-Haired Immortal Ape said without hesitation, "I can!"
Fang Bai continued, "Entering my sect, you must diligently cultivate, endure hardships without complaint. Can you manage that?"
The Golden-Haired Immortal Ape shouted loudly, "I can!"
Fang Bai withdrew his smile, his gaze intensely upon the Golden-Haired Immortal Ape, and coldly said, "Our sect is surrounded by strong enemies. Should we ever face a catastrophic disaster, what will you do then?"
The Golden-Haired Immortal Ape said, "As long as master is here, so is the disciple! If the master is gone, the disciple will live and die with the sect!"
"Good!"
Fang Bai nodded with satisfaction, raised his hands slightly, and said, "I believe in you!"
"Master agrees to take as a disciple?"
The Golden-Haired Immortal Ape suddenly raised its head, unable to hide its joy.
Fang Bai said, "Your aptitude is outstanding, and your Wuxing is quite high. The day I taught you the Immortal Technique Secrets, I had the intention of accepting you as a disciple! You ca to find . You didn’t let down; I’m very pleased! Get up and speak!"
The Golden-Haired Immortal Ape leaped up, joyfully scratching its ears.
Fang Bai asked, "Do you have a na?"
The Golden-Haired Immortal Ape thought for a mont and said, "In past years, the immortal who taught the Immortal Technique Secrets used to call Little Ape."
"Little Ape?"
Fang Bai looked at the three-zhang-tall figure of the Golden-Haired Immortal Ape, chuckled, and then shook his head saying, "That na doesn’t sound good nor befitting... What do you think if I give you a na?"
The Golden-Haired Immortal Ape joyfully said, "Please grant a na, Master!"
"From now on, your surna will be Sun, and you will be called Sun... Great Sage!"
After reincarnation, Fang Bai lived among mortals for so years. He thought of the legend of the righteous and loyal Monkey King in the mortal world and mischievously wanted to na the Golden-Haired Immortal Ape "Sun Wukong," but considering it, he felt "Sun Da Sheng" had more grandeur, so he decided on that.
"Sun Da Sheng... Da Sheng... Da Sheng..."
The Golden-Haired Immortal Ape muttered several tis, feeling the na was fitting. Then thanked, "Thank you, Master, for the na! From now on, I shall be called Sun Da Sheng!"
Fang Bai laughed heartily and pointed towards Nvlang Venerable, saying, "Get to know him; he’s your senior brother Nvlang!"
Seeing his master pointing at him, Nvlang Venerable hurriedly flew over.
The Golden-Haired Immortal Ape glanced at Nvlang Venerable, seeing that he was an Immortal King Realm expert, composed himself, and clasped his fists in salute, "Sun Da Sheng greets Senior Brother Nvlang!"
Although Sun Da Sheng, the Golden-Haired Immortal Ape, only had an Immortal Venerable Realm cultivation level, Nvlang Venerable knew its future on the Immortal Dao path might surpass his own, so he didn’t dare to underestimate it, quickly returning the gesture, "Greetings, Junior Brother Sun!"
Fang Bai further pointed to Flying Crane Venerable, "That is Flying Crane Venerable. In future, you may refer to him as Flying Crane Immortal Friend!"
The Golden-Haired Immortal Ape noted that Flying Crane Venerable was also an Immortal King Realm expert and was secretly astonished, thinking that although its master’s cultivation level wasn’t strong, those around him were powerful experts, and even Flying Crane Venerable maintained a respectful junior posture in front of the master.
"Haha, Immortal Friend Sun, no need for excessive formality. Let’s get close in the future and support each other!"
Seeing Sun Da Sheng salute him with clasped fists, Flying Crane Venerable dared not neglect it and returned the gesture.
With an outstanding disciple like this, Fang Bai was pleased. He imdiately brought Sun Da Sheng, Nvlang Venerable, and Flying Crane Venerable back to Bluewater Immortal Mansion together.
This ti, Sun Da Sheng ca to acknowledge his master with a large amount of Immortal Elixir from the original forest he was located in, as a "disciple’s gift" for Fang Bai.
Fang Bai did not reject its goodwill; after receiving those Immortal Elixirs, he had Sun Da Sheng communicate and exchange learning experiences with Nvlang Venerable and Flying Crane Venerable while he went into seclusion to refine those Immortal Elixirs into Immortal Pills, which he then distributed to the disciples of Bluewater Immortal Mansion.
In the previous period, under Fang Bai’s guidance, the disciples of Bluewater Immortal Mansion engaged in secluded cultivation, and many of them advanced. Fang Bai’s batch of Immortal Pills happened to be used to consolidate their realms.
Being concerned for the disciples of the Immortal Sect, Flying Crane Venerable did not stay long; eventually, at Fang Bai’s urging, he returned to the Flying Crane Sect to cultivate and urge the disciples to cultivate, looking forward to the day when the Emperor’s Palace would be rebuilt.
"I need to go to the Forest of Ten Thousand Trees to find the traces of an old acquaintance. Da Sheng, stay here at Bluewater Immortal Mansion and cultivate with your Senior Brother Nvlang!"
After Flying Crane Venerable left, Fang Bai thought that Fairy Linglong’s self-sealing place might be in the Forest of Ten Thousand Trees, so he had no desire to stay. After instructing Nvlang Venerable and Sun Da Sheng for a while, he flew away from Bluewater Immortal Mansion, heading towards the western sky.
The Forest of Ten Thousand Trees is at least a million li away from Bluewater Immortal Mansion, and flying there would require a considerable amount of ti. Fang Bai rembered there was a Teleportation Array built in a nearby Immortal City which could directly reach the edge of the Forest of Ten Thousand Trees, so he tad an Immortal Bird and flew towards that Immortal City.
That Immortal City is nad "Shattered Star City." It is said that soon after the opening of chaos, a fragnted star from beyond the domain fell here, causing the environnt to change drastically, with an extrely rich Spiritual Energy.
Especially the richness of the Earth Spirit Energy, which far surpasses other types of Spiritual Energy.
Therefore, immortals of later generations established this Immortal City on the fallen fragnted star.
Shattered Star City is adjacent to the "Soul Lost Gully" in the Central Heavenly Domain of the Immortal Realm, and opposite the Soul Lost Gully lies a vast domain inhabited by a mix of the Demon Clan and Demon Beasts.
So powerful Demon Clan and Demon Beasts often risk flying across the Soul Lost Gully, intending to attack the immortals in Shattered Star City, seize cultivation resources, and devour immortal bodies to strengthen themselves.
Unexpectedly, the dense earth elental Qi of Shattered Star City endowed this Immortal City with innate strong defensive capabilities, making it a fortress that has never been breached, despite frequent invasions by the Demon Clan and Demon Beasts.
