"Alright, since you insist, so be it. After all, there is no banquet in the world that doesn't end." Wang Yu sighed and said.

Jin Tong bowed to Wang Yu and turned to leave.

"Wait a moment, take these with you." Wang Yu called out to Jin Tong, flipped his hand, and took out a jade green bracelet carved with phoenix patterns, throwing it over.

Jin Tong subconsciously reached out and caught it.

"Inside is a map of this desolate land, along with some spirit treasures and Immortal Essence Stones, which should be enough for you for a while. In addition, there are a few Faceless Alliance masks. If you need any help, feel free to send me a message." Wang Yu said calmly.

He didn't know how he felt about Jin Tong, like a close comrade-in-arms who fought together, or like a daughter he had watched grow up since childhood.

Jin Tong looked at the phoenix-patterned bracelet in her hand, a trace of complexity flashing in her eyes. She didn't refuse, and silently put it on her left wrist.

"Boss, I'm going with you." Pi Xiu suddenly called out, leaping to Jin Tong's side.

"Xiao Bai?" Jin Tong was taken aback.

"Boss, you said you'd take me as your little brother, you can't go back on your word." Pi Xiu rubbed its head against Jin Tong, saying so.

"It's good to have Xiao Bai follow you. If you encounter other powerful Gold Devouring Immortals again, you can enter their bodies to hide." Wang Yu's eyebrows twitched, and he said.

"Okay. I'll take you with me, but you better improve your strength quickly. If you dare to get in my way, I'll kick you away immediately." Jin Tong thought for a moment, stroked Xiao Bai's head, and said.

Pi Xiu immediately looked overjoyed, nodding repeatedly.

"By the way, regarding the Gold Devouring Immortal, I saw in a classic text that one once appeared in the Golden Origin Immortal Domain. Its strength is unknown. Although that should have been a long time ago, and that Gold Devouring Immortal may no longer be there, you can go there and try your luck if you can't find any other clues." Wang Yu pondered for a moment and then spoke again.

"Golden Origin Immortal Domain... I understand, thank you Uncle, take care too." Jin Tong nodded slightly upon hearing this.

She looked at Wang Yu deeply again, then with a shift of her body, transformed into a golden rainbow, wrapped Pi Xiu, and flew in a certain direction, instantly disappearing into the horizon.

Wang Yu watched Jin Tong's figure disappear, and after a moment, he withdrew his gaze.

"Let's go too." His expression quickly returned to calm, and he said calmly.

Not long after, a green rainbow rose from the ground and sped away into the distance.

A moment later, on the edge of the sky not far away, spatial fluctuations occurred, and two faint figures suddenly appeared there, one tall and one short.

It was Jin Tong and Pi Xiu, who had already left.

"Uncle, it's not that Jin Tong is unwilling to follow you, but what I'm about to face is something you can't imagine... It was really not easy to escape unscathed this time, Jin Tong doesn't want to burden you anymore..." Jin Tong murmured to herself, looking at the fading green shadow in the sky.

"Boss, why are you doing this? Although I haven't been with the master for long, my intuition as a Desolate True Spirit tells me that the master is blessed by the heavens and is definitely not afraid of being burdened by you..." Pi Xiu Xiao Bai said timidly.

"Are you saying that I am a burden?" Jin Tong suddenly turned her head, staring at Xiao Bai, and asked in an unkind tone.

"No...no...what I mean is...Boss, you are wise and martial, your cultivation is unparalleled, and you are not afraid of wandering alone at all..." Xiao Bai quickly changed his words.

"Although I have regained some of my memories, I am still not very clear about some things, but I vaguely know that I seem to be more than just a spirit worm. Xiao Bai, since you call me Boss, I will naturally not treat you badly. As long as you assist me in finding what originally belonged to me, you can eat whatever you want in the future." Jin Tong suddenly sighed softly and said solemnly.

"Boss, don't worry, from now on I will follow your lead, whatever you let me eat, I will eat!" Xiao Bai stood up straight with all four feet and said sternly.

"You've been around Mo Guang, that bootlicking worm, for too long. You haven't learned anything else, but your bootlicking skills are even better. Let's go, according to this map, the Golden Origin Immortal Domain is not close." Jin Tong curled her lips and turned to fly away.

"Hey, Boss, wait for me... By the way, speaking of that guy Mo Guang..." Pi Xiu Xiao Bai hurriedly chased after her on all fours.

……

Northern Black Mountain Immortal Domain.

A secluded mountain valley filled with lush green bamboo, through which a clear stream meanders, with smoke rising from the bamboo forests on both banks, and the sound of melodious and crisp bird calls from time to time.

In the depths of the forest, one can occasionally see white wild deer with plum blossom patterns on both sides of their backs wandering.

The middle section of the stream is located in the steepest area of the valley, with the riverbed winding and turning, and craggy rocks densely packed on both banks. At a large bend in the river, the water flow is slower, and the accumulated water forms an abyss, gathering into a deep emerald pool.

On the left side of the deep pool, there is a huge stone platform, on which sits a middle-aged man in a green gauze robe, stroking a dark purple zither.

His features are regular, his face is handsome, and his blue hair is draped behind him, making him seem particularly otherworldly. Ten slender white fingers pluck, pluck, hook, and smear on the strings, making beautiful sounds like flowing springs, tinkling.

Not far from him, an old man with black hair and an old man with white hair sat opposite each other, with a square chessboard between them, playing chess and commenting on the landscape.

The black-haired old man's clothes were very neat, without any wrinkles, and the black hair on his head was tied up high without a single stray strand, making the whole person look clean and sharp, like a unsheathed long sword, showing its edge.

The white-haired old man opposite him looked much more slovenly. He was wearing a moon-white robe with scattered flame patterns embroidered on it. His shoulders were drooping, his head was supported by one hand, and his hair was loose and messy, making him look particularly lazy.

The black-haired old man held white chess pieces, and his chess style was sharp and decisive. Every move was sonorous and forceful, knocking the chess pieces and making a "crackling" sound. The white-haired old man was thinking slowly, neither fast nor slow, and every move was soft and silent.

The black-haired old man seemed to be used to this, and never urged him. After each move, he would close his eyes and meditate on the root of the ninth and even the tenth step of the chess game.

"Old Ghost Hot Fire, your slow-moving nature is really unbearable. If I didn't know your background, I would suspect that you are an old turtle of ten thousand years in some river who has cultivated into a human form?" An old man in brown clothes watching the game couldn't stand it anymore, took a big gulp of wine, and cursed with a smile.

"Dog mouth can't spit out ivory. Fellow Daoist Duan hasn't spoken, why are you, an old drunkard, interrupting? Go, go, go, drink your horse piss!" The white-haired old man raised his head and glanced at him, but there was no anger on his face, and he scolded.

"Last time with Lu Guanzi from Xiangyang Valley, how long did you play that game of chess? Grinding and tossing for thirty years, right? In the end, a ninth-level master couldn't stand it and gave up..."

Before he could finish speaking, the white-haired old man raised his voice a few points, interrupting him:

"Lu Guanzi heard that a true immortal female cultivator with extremely beautiful appearance had come to Rainbow Phoenix Valley, so he couldn't sit still, otherwise that game of chess could have been played for another twenty years."

"Bullshit extremely beautiful! I went to see it myself, those breasts, those buttocks, that face... At most, it can be considered middle-to-upper, only someone like Lu Guanzi can appreciate it, I don't like it..." The brown-clothed old man raised his eyebrows and shook his head.

The white-haired old man rubbed his chin, his eyes fixed on the chessboard. It seemed that the chess situation was gradually falling into a disadvantage, and he began to seriously consider the chess moves, ignoring the brown-clothed old man.

"Hic... It's really boring to talk to you guys. I don't know what Fellow Daoist Li is busy with, and hasn't shown up yet." The brown-clothed old man hiccuped, turned his head and glanced in the direction of the valley entrance, and muttered to himself.

Hearing this, the green-clothed man who was playing the zither pressed the strings with both hands, and the sound of the zither stopped abruptly.

"I heard that Fellow Daoist Li is currently refining a furnace of 'Five Stone Pills'. I sent a message the other day, but he has not replied, so I think he is still in seclusion and hasn't come out yet." He turned his head to look at the brown-clothed old man and said.

As soon as he finished speaking, a young man in a green robe with a pale face was walking slowly along the riverbank from the depths of the bamboo forest, heading towards this side.

This person was tall and had ordinary features. He didn't seem to have any special temperament, and belonged to the kind that would be drowned in the crowd if thrown into the crowd.

It was none other than Wang Yu, who was wearing the Reincarnation Palace mask and had changed his appearance.

It had been more than four hundred years since he parted ways with Jin Tong and Xiao Bai in the Desolate Realm.

Wang Yu had been living in this Floating Cloud Mountain Range for nearly two hundred years.

"Yo, Fellow Daoist Li, you're here... Come, come, come, have a couple of drinks with me." The brown-clothed old man stood up from the ground immediately when he saw Wang Yu and shouted loudly.

The two old men playing chess also put the chess pieces in their chess jars and stood up one after another. Only the green-clothed man playing the zither was still sitting cross-legged, but he also smiled and looked over.

A smile appeared on Wang Yu's face, and his footsteps were illusory for a while. His whole body turned into a series of afterimages on the riverbank, but his figure had already landed on the flat boulder.

"Fellow Daoist Hot Fire, Fellow Daoist Jingyang, Fellow Daoist Duan, Fellow Daoist Ziqi... Recently, I have been busy with alchemy, and I have missed your invitations, please forgive me." Wang Yu stepped forward, greeted the four people on the stone one by one, and said with a smile.

"It's okay, it's okay, you are an alchemist after all, alchemy is the right thing to do, unlike us old guys, who are idle all day long, and only have the time to tinker with these worldly things to please ourselves." The white-haired old man with the title of Hot Fire Immortal Venerable waved his hand and said with a smile.

He was originally the Supreme Elder of a mid-level sect in the Black Mountain Immortal Domain. Because he was naturally lazy and really didn't want to manage sect affairs, he left all the burdens on a fellow apprentice of the same generation and hid in this Floating Cloud Mountain Range to enjoy leisure.

Don't look at his sloppy appearance, but he is actually the person with the highest cultivation level among the four on the boulder, having reached the late stage of the Golden Immortal Realm.
