(Hammer has started a new book, Heavenly Master's Search for Dao, using another sock puppet account. Please support it, bookmark it, and vote for Heavenly Master's Search for Dao. Thank you. The reason why I'm using another account to start two books is because I want to get two full-time and diligent writing awards. The income from Unique Steps to Immortality isn't enough to support my family. The editor has already suggested finishing this book and starting a new one. However, I've already written a chapter in the Immortal World, and it's already so long. I don't want to finish it so casually.
Some readers might be worried that Unique Steps to Immortality will be hastily finished and the updates won't be stable. Hammer can only prioritize the stability of Unique Steps to Immortality's updates before starting a new book. Unique Steps to Immortality will update irregularly. I only hope that readers can support my new book, Heavenly Master's Search for Dao. Thank you. Please.)

Zhu Shilin was also surprised to see Lu Xiaotian. He couldn't hide the complicated look in his eyes. In order to get Lu Xiaotian to let him go, Zhu Shilin was forced to split a portion of his soul into Lu Xiaotian's hands. If he couldn't retrieve this part of his soul and the two immortal artifacts that he had pawned, he didn't know how long it would take for his strength to recover to its peak. It wasn't something that a mere 500,000 low-grade immortal crystals could make up for.
"Senior Zhu." Zhu Yan and Lü Yiming bowed to Zhu Shilin one after another.
"It's you!" The other group of people was even more familiar to Lu Xiaotian. They were from the Zhen Family. The leader looked a little like Zhen Shuo. It was Zhen Shuo's father, Zhen Jingting. The one who spoke was Zhen Shuo, who was behind Zhen Jingting.
Zhen Shuo wasn't a broad-minded person. When he saw Lu Xiaotian, anger surged in his eyes. He benefited a lot from the battle with Lu Xiaotian. However, he suffered a crushing defeat at the hands of Lu Xiaotian when he was about to break through to the Mystic Immortal Realm. It was more or less a blow to his confidence in winning.
Zhen Shuo didn't have a good impression of Lu Xiaotian.
"Zhen Shuo, long time no see." Lu Xiaotian smiled faintly.
"Who are these little friends?" Zhen Jingting's imposing gaze swept over Zhu Yan and the others. Zhu Yan and Lü Yiming's hearts skipped a beat. If Lu Xiaotian had passed the test and become a Tier Two Pill Saint in the Turtle Spirit Immortal Region, the Zhen Family would not dare to do anything to Lu Xiaotian, even though they were powerful. After all, the Turtle Spirit Immortal Region belonged to the Heaven, and was bound by the rules of the Heaven. No matter how strong the Zhen Clan was, it was only a Mysterious Immortal Clan, and it didn't have the courage to openly go against the Heavenly Dao.
Strictly speaking, Lu Xiaotian was still a nobody. Under such circumstances, encountering the Zhen Family was undoubtedly the most disadvantageous. If he had met Zhen Shuo, it would have been fine. Zhu Yan and Lü Yiming were also not afraid of Zhen Shuo. However, the presence of Zhen Jingting, a Mysterious Immortal expert, really caused Lu Xiaotian's situation to become extremely bad in an instant.
"I'm Dongfang, and I've come to take the Tier Two Pill Saint examination." Lu Xiaotian cupped his hands.
"That means you haven't passed the test yet. How dare you, a Loose Immortal, be so disrespectful to me." Zhen Jingting understood what was going on from Zhen Shuo's voice transmission. His originally imposing gaze instantly became as sharp as a blade, and his aura crushed down on Lu Xiaotian like a mountain.
Even though Zhen Jingting's aura was mainly aimed at Lu Xiaotian, Zhu Yan and Lü Yiming were too close, and under the enormous and heavy pressure, they immediately broke out in cold sweat. Their bodies went soft, and if they hadn't forcefully supported themselves, they would have already fallen from the sky. However, facing the pressure of a Mysterious Immortal expert at such a close distance, Zhu Yan and Lü Yiming still didn't dare move.
"During the battle with the wolf riders in the Illusory Mist Swamp, I can be considered to have killed many True Immortal level wolfmen. I can be considered to have made a certain amount of contributions to the Heavenly Court. This is something that Fellow Daoist Zhen can't erase. Even if we disregard my status as a Tier Two Pill Saint and purely as a True Immortal, based on battle achievements, I wonder if Fellow Daoist Zhen has killed a Mysterious Immortal level wolfman of the same level? "
Under such enormous pressure from Zhen Jingting, compared to Zhu Yan and Lü Yiming's embarrassed state, Lu Xiaotian didn't seem to be threatened at all. Instead, he asked Zhen Jingting a question in a carefree manner.
It was no wonder that Zhen Shuo didn't care about anything else. It turned out that a crooked stick would have a crooked shadow. His personality mostly came from Zhen Jingting.
"How dare you!" Hearing Lu Xiaotian's question, Zhen Jingting's expression suddenly changed, and he shouted loudly. Although he didn't directly attack Lu Xiaotian, his shout already contained a certain amount of Sound Assassination Technique. It directly shook Zhu Yan and Lü Yiming until their faces turned red, and they almost spat out a mouthful of blood. Even Zhen Shuo and the other True Immortals behind him didn't seem to be in a good state.
"Senior Zhen, Fellow Daoist Dongfang didn't mean to offend …" Zhu Yan forcefully suppressed the discomfort in her heart, cupped her hands, and was about to continue speaking.
"Who do you think you are? Get lost." The sound waves on Zhen Jingting's body surged, and Zhu Yan let out a muffled groan. She only felt a great pressure surging over, and her body unconsciously flew back. She knew that if it weren't for the fact that they were in the Turtle Spirit Immortal Region and Zhen Jingting couldn't do anything to her openly, it was really hard to say what he would do if they were in another place.
"Zhen Shuo was defeated by me, and he lost the Glazed Fire King Jade to me. He didn't want to go back and cultivate hard, and use his own ability to win back the jade. Instead, he beat the young, and the old came. Using the strength of a Profound Immortal to bully a True Immortal, the Zhen Family's prestige is really great. "Lu Xiaotian took a step forward, and blocked the remaining pressure that pressed down on Zhu Yan.
"Kid, you're courting death. As long as you don't join the ranks of True Immortals, so what if I kill you?" Zhen Jingting originally thought that after scaring the other party, the other party would definitely obediently give in, and the Zhen Family would gain both face and power. However, he didn't expect that this silver-haired kid in front of him would become even stronger. With just a few words, he actually couldn't back down.
At this moment, Zhen Shuo's face was filled with embarrassment. Zhen Jingting was an old ginger, and his killing intent was aroused by Lu Xiaotian's words.
"If I didn't have full confidence, I would've naturally gone to the Mukun Immortal Region. Why would I come to the Turtle Spirit Immortal Region and suffer like this? If you really want to fight, then go ahead. Although I'm not a match for you, I have my own methods to protect myself. " Lu Xiaotian said indifferently. Zhen Jingting was so strong, how could Lu Xiaotian let him have his way? Even if Zhen Jingting was so strong that Ying Qing Dao Xian might not be a match for him. Lu Xiaotian didn't believe that the other experts of the Turtle Spirit Immortal Region would really sit by and watch two Profound Immortals fight here. If it really didn't work, he could use the Three-headed White Python. It wasn't that there weren't any demon immortals in the Heavenly Court. It was just that a part of their strength would be exposed in advance.
"Fellow Zhen, why bother with these two juniors and Little Friend Dongfang?" Zhu Shilin cursed inwardly. At this moment, he had no choice but to step in. Otherwise, if something really happened to Lu Xiaotian, who would he ask for the immortal artifact and divine clone that were in Lu Xiaotian's hands? If he stood by and watched, Lu Xiaotian would be in a bad mood, and he would be in trouble.
"Fellow Zhu, what are you doing?" Zhen Jingting was shocked. Although Zhu Shilin was injured, he was also an immortal, and his status was not much lower than his. He didn't dare to do anything to Zhu Yan and Lü Yiming, so how could he do anything to Zhu Shilin?
"In the battle of the Illusory Fog Swamp, Little Friend Dongfang made great contributions to the Heavenly Court. You can't underestimate him. I've heard a little about the competition between him and Zhen Shuo. It was a fair competition, so it's normal for there to be winners and losers. This kind of dispute isn't worth Fellow Zhen making such a big fuss. "
Zhu Shilin said with a smile. "This time, Little Friend Dongfang is here to take the second-grade pill saint exam. It's a good thing for the Turtle Spirit Immortal Region to have another second-grade pill saint."
"Since Fellow Zhu is here to vouch for me, this is a different matter. I have to give you face." Zhen Jingting's face darkened. He couldn't fight anymore, so he withdrew his aura.
