...
Tianlong Retreat, a place brimming with Zen tranquility.
It is an external retreat established by Tianlong Monastery in Dragon-Slaying Immortal City.
At the entrance of the retreat, two guards, both with Fifth-Layer Qi Refining Cultivation, stood, their eyes sharp, vigilantly guarding the entrance.
The two monks glanced at Chu Zheng briefly, a hint of disdain in their hearts.
One of the monks spoke coldly:
"Recently, the retreat has been tight on lodging capacity; ordinary Loose Cultivators are not accepted."
"If you do not have formal Sect recommendation, leave quickly and do not linger here."
Chu Zheng stepped forward slowly, cupped his hands in salute:
"I am Chu Zheng, guided by Master Black Ebony, and I hold a Token to seek lodging at the retreat, I humbly ask for you to relay this message."
Saying this, he handed over a Token adorned with ancient Buddhist patterns from his palm.
