Ch.2 Contacting Immortals(2)

On a hill near the village, a young man sat in a lotus position, he looked to be around sixteen or seventeen years old and was quite handsome.

Although not handsome enough to be world-shaking but handsome nonetheless. He had short black hair with lines of silver passing through it.

He opened his eyes as his blue eyes looked toward the sky as he gave a long sigh.

He stood up and he looked around the village in the distance, various emotions appeared on his face.

With another sigh, he turned around and walked toward the place he was sitting before.

This young man or boy was none other than Nexus, it has been two days since his father died.

He took two days to calm his heart and make it steady, as he got ready to call for the immortal and start his cultivation journey.

His father died with a smile on his face, plus he said goodbye to all the people in the village.

Taking out the jade medal from his pocket he looked at it, he had already learned how to use it thus taking a deep breath he thought of calling the immortal in his mind.

As he did so the jade medal glowed with great intensity as a blinding light appearing from it pierced through the clouds.

The clouds started to darken as thunder rumbled, and roars of dragons, and cries of phoenixes were heard from the clouds as strong winds hit Nexus.

The green glow of the jade medal started to dim as cracks started to appear in the space in front of Nexus.

As he looked in surprise a man walked, he had long black hair and a handsome face. The green Taoist robe he was wearing only enhanced his looks.

"So you must be the one that called me."

The man said as he looked over at Nexus, the green medal flew out of Nexus's hands and it floated in front of the man.

"A three-hundred-year-old promise huh..."

The man muttered as he stroked his chin, looking over at Nexus as he spoke.

"So what do you wish for."

As if his words were the command of the heavens themselves thunder rumbled as an oppressive pressure surrounded Nexus.

Kneeling on the ground Nexus spoke in a loud voice.

"I wish to walk on the path of cultivation, Oh, great Immortal."

"Immortal huh, I am too far away from that realm. My name is Su Yanlin, but you shall call me Master Su as I shall be your master from now on. Do you accept?"

"Disciple greets Master Su."

Nexus spoke loudly as he bowed his head again.

"Great, I shall take you to the sect now, After you enter the inner sect and become an inner sect disciple I shall take you to cultivate with me."

With that, he turned around as space started to crack around them, a green light surrounded Nexus as both of them disappeared from that place.

With a flash of green light, two figures appeared in front of a building, this surprised the nearby people but after seeing who it was all of them bowed their heads.

"Resister him as an outer disciple."

Su Yanlin spoke to the people in front of him, turning around he looked at Nexus as he threw a small bag at him.

"This is my gift for you."

After saying that he disappeared in a flash of green light. Nexus just stayed there shocked as things happened way too fast.

"Please come this way."

An old man walked out from the crowd as he said those words to Nexus with a kind smile on his face.

"Oh... Ok"

Nexus broke out of his stupor as he looked at the old man and followed him. The people nearby gave him a second glance before continuing to do their work.

"Um.. excuse me, sir, Can you tell me where are we now?"

Nexus asked in a polite tone to the old man in front of him, hearing his words the old man looked surprised but replied with a smile.

"It seems the Supreme Elder Su didn't tell you anything, well it must be a job he left for these old bones."

He spoke as he stroked his long beard.

"Well, you are currently on top of Mount Dai, the outer quarters of the Divine Virtue Sect."

"Divine Virtue Sect.."

"Yes, Little friend..."

"Nexus."

"Little friend Nexus, you are quite lucky to have caught the eyes of the Supreme Elder, a Sudo Deity Realm expert."

Nexus listened to the old man's words with great interest as this was the first time he was hearing the cultivation realms.

Plus he is quite sure that he has gotten himself quite a strong backer. After all in all the cultivation novels he has read in his past life, the Deity Realm has always been quite high-ranking.

"I am quite jealous of you myself, little friend."

As he said that they reached a building, it was two stories tall and had an ancient feel to it.

"Now let's get you registered. Although I would like to talk to you more, as one of the Outer Elders I have other things to do. I hope you don't take any offense to it."

"It's ok.. after all, I don't wish to waste your time."

Nexus replied with a humble tone as he gave a little bow.

"Hmm"

The old man just hummed with a smile on his face. He seems to be quite pleased with Nexus's humble tone.

After that the registration process started, it didn't even take a minute long as he was brought here by a Supreme Elder.

"Here take this Formation Slip, this will help you locate your residence and help you enter it by opening the formation guarding it."

"Understood."

Nexus nodded as he took the Formation Slip, giving a bow to the old man he left. The old man had told him that everything he needed he would find in his residence.

After walking out he took a deep breath as the fresh air entered his body, taking out the Formation slip he pointed forward as it started to glow and float in front of him.

After a while, it started to move as he followed along, as he walked he looked around.

He felt like he was transported to an ancient time as old-looking buildings surrounded both sides of the road he walked on.

Hundreds of orange Taoist robes wearing people were walking around as they bought and sold things in the nearby buildings.

It seemed like he was in a marketplace, the people around looked at him, some gave him a double glance, and some continued to stare at him but none of them came forward to speak to him.

His journey was quite peaceful as he continued to walk as he exited the market area, walking down a stone paved stairs he continued to follow the formation slip.

It entered the forest as he followed behind, a tranquil silence permeated the forest as a sense of peace was felt by Nexus.

After a while, the formation slip stopped in front of a cave. It gave a blinding blue glow as a white energy wall appeared in front of the cave's entrance before disappearing.

Looking at the magical show in front of him, Nexus caught the formation slip as he entered the cave.
