Han Yu and the others stood frozen beside the softly illuminated river as the reality of Lin Mu's words fully settled into their minds.
An Immortal.
Not a legend.
Not some ancient story passed down through jade slips and faded records.
A real living Immortal had just stood before them casually while holding a red cat named Shrubby on his shoulder.
The realization alone made their scalps turn numb.
For cultivators of the Violet Eve World, immortals were beings beyond imagination. Entire sects were built upon the dreams of reaching immortality. Countless geniuses had died pursuing ascension. The Blood Sect itself had ruled for hundreds of thousands of years largely because of the legacy left behind by those who had ascended.
And now…
One of those beings had appeared in front of them so casually that it almost felt unreal.
Han Yu's heart pounded heavily.
