Chapter 2112: Chapter 1620: Another Encounter with What Does Immortal

For the Hungry Immortal, the deterrent power of the term “Saint Lord” is far inferior to “Wu Wei.”

After all, she has never seen the Saint Lord with her own eyes. The Three Immortal Saints are nothing more than ambiguous legends to her.

But [Wu Wei]…

Is truly her master!

Even as she stands just a step away from the Nameless True Immortal Realm, from the depths of her heart, the Nameless Immortal remains her true master.

Thus, when the Measureless Barrier uttered the phrase “Immortal Servant,” not only wasn’t she annoyed; she became intrigued.

“You can actually discern my origins?” The Hungry Immortal’s fingers slightly loosened on the Measureless Barrier.

The Measureless Barrier took a brief breath and then reverted to its arrogant persona: “Ridiculous! The Dao Palace of the All Saints connects the Mountain Sea and reflects the Immortal World. All matters, large and small, within the Immortal World cannot escape the Saint Lord’s discerning eye. Since I stand at the entrance of the Saint Lord Sect, how would I not possess such knowledge?”

“Back when the sudden collapse of the South Immortal Sky Pillar occurred, it was thanks to the timely intervention of [Wu Wei] the True Immortal that a greater catastrophe was prevented. It can be said that he alone extended the lifespan of several epochs for the Immortal World. How could I not be aware of such a merit?”

“Due to the grand achievement of Wu Wei Immortal, he was granted dominion over the Nine Great Immortal Domains. The creations and living beings within were all transformed into his Immortal Servants. Though Wu Wei Immortal cherished tranquility and freedom, and didn’t constrain them, the restrictions remained! Until these Immortal Servants surpass their master’s cultivation base, they cannot shed their servant identity. You are no different now.”

…

The Measureless Barrier spoke at length to prove its words were not empty.

The Hungry Immortal did not refute.

Yet she didn’t release her grip on the Measureless Barrier.

“[Wu Wei]…”

“Even when he was here, he wouldn’t meddle much with the actions of us Immortal Servants.”

“And now, he has likely transcended and left, free and unrestrained.”

“The more you know, the more valuable you are. Why would I be frightened by your mere words?” A suction force emanated from the Hungry Immortal’s hand.

The Measureless Barrier felt as if a giant vortex had formed outside. Not only its fragile Jade Bi surface but also the multitude of treasures hidden within, including the Holy Palace Dao Plate, seemed about to be sucked away.

“This is truly a disaster now!” the Measureless Barrier lamented silently.

However, the strength of the Hungry Immortal, nearing the Nameless True Immortal Realm, was not something a mere Immortal Instrument could resist.

“Damn it, if only I had more time to fully digest everything inside, then perhaps I could shed the Immortal Instrument form and achieve the true Nameless. How would this Wu Wei Immortal Servant be my match then…”

In this critical moment, the Measureless Barrier’s thoughts spun, seeking a way to escape.

“Hold on! You just said your master had long transcended and left behind, free and unrestrained…”

“This is absolutely wrong!”

Suddenly, as if realizing something, the Measureless Barrier shouted loudly.

“Oh?” The Hungry Immortal was actually somewhat interested in news about her master. Although this Immortal Instrument had a loose tongue and often spoke falsehoods, the Hungry Immortal paused her devouring process.

“Speak!”

“You must promise to spare my life! Oh, and the mortal inside me!”

Without waiting for the Hungry Immortal to respond, the Measureless Barrier added: “Don’t think swallowing me will grant you all information. Let me tell you, inside of me, besides the Dao Palace Holy Tablet, there are many other treasures.”

“If you push me too far, I might just detonate them…”

To enhance the credibility of its words, the surface of the Measureless Jade Bi became clearer.

Beneath the Dao Palace Holy Tablet, which is densely packed, thousands of items gleaming with Spirit Light were stored. Piled high like a mountain, the Holy Tablet sat atop the small mountain.

The Hungry Immortal saw clearly that most of these items retained some supreme aura.

She couldn’t help but raise her eyebrows: “Did you… take advantage of the Immortal World’s demise to loot the Saint Lord Palace?”

The Measureless Barrier cursed vehemently: “You’re the one who looted! Mine is a rescue operation for preservation, understand? At the time the Dao Palace encountered bandits, almost all restrictions were destroyed, and the spirited items inside mostly fled to save themselves. Those left behind wouldn’t fare much better even if left there. I took them along, hoping that if one day the Saint Lord reappears, it would facilitate the Dao Palace’s reconstruction.”

The Measureless Barrier spoke with justification, while the Hungry Immortal merely smiled silently.

Inside the Measureless Barrier, Bai Shuyue, who had not dared to move due to fear since the Hungry Immortal’s appearance, heard the Measureless Barrier’s words and finally couldn’t help but roll her eyes silently.

Calling itself “grandfather” in front of her, yet when it comes to this True Immortal, it refers to itself as “young master.”

The reason the Measureless Barrier couldn’t exert its full strength was because it had “eaten too much,” to the point of overstuffing itself.

“Hardly any of what it says is true.”

If not for the life-saving gesture, Bai Shuyue had almost made up her mind to devise various methods to torment it in every reincarnation henceforth.

A mortal’s emotional fluctuations naturally were beneath the concern of the Hungry Immortal.

However, after careful consideration, she agreed to the Measureless Barrier’s requests.

For the Measureless Barrier and its internal set of treasures, to the Hungry Immortal, they were essentially optional existences.

She was just a step away from validating her Dao as Nameless, having carved out her own Dao Path, external objects no longer held that much significance.

In contrast, information about [Wu Wei] Immortal Lord intrigued her more.

Upon reaching this point in her thoughts, the Hungry Immortal said, “The treasures inside you, I shall choose three items. Then, tell me what you know about my master’s news, if it’s true…”
