Huangshan mountain is located in the Anhui province of China. Originally named Yishan, it was later renamed Huangshan following stories that the Yellow Emperor had once practiced alchemy there.
Huangshan has always been known as one of the most extraordinary mountains in the world. When Xu Xiake climbed Huangshan, he praised, "After climbing Huangshan, there is definitely no other mountain in the world with such a breathtaking view!" Later, people refurbished this phrase into, "After seeing the Five Sacred Mountains, don't bother looking at other mountains; after returning from Huangshan, don't bother looking at the Sacred Mountains!"
After accepting the mission, Gui Bin took a military plane directly from Shanghai to Anhui. Upon arrival in Huangshan City, he chose not to use any transportation for the sake of respect. Gui Bin ascended the main peak of Huangshan alone to meet the old immortal.
Since the old immortal summoned the shadow of the God Taiyi at Mt.Tai to shatter the extraterrestrial meteorite, he claimed to have exhausted too much energy. As a result, he secluded himself on the Tiandu Peak, one of the three main peaks of Huangshan.
After such a long time, it was likely that the old immortal had fully recovered. However, the Chinese government would not disturb the old immortal's seclusion unless absolutely necessary. Instead, the high-ranking officials admired him as a transcendent immortal, living a life of leisure, unconcerned about worldly affairs.
This time, Gui Bin was sent here because a Western angel had entered Chinese territory. The government was concerned about this and wanted Gui Bin to investigate, disturbing the old immortal's peaceful life.
"How can I not speak kindly to the old immortal? Since he doesn't compete for worldly power, it's the best outcome for our leaders."
Gui Bin thought deeply as he climbed the mountain. He knew that the higher-ups were afraid that the old immortal might seize power with his invincible strength. Seeing that the old immortal had no interest in worldly matters, they were delighted, eager to fulfill any request the old immortal might have.
After more than two years of supernatural developments, governments worldwide concluded that only beings like the old immortal and Shinto priest, as well as Western Valkyrie and angel, would likely reside on Earth for an extended period.
True gods, like Christ, who only descended for specific reasons, or indifferent beings like the great god Odin, who didn't care about Earth at all, were unlikely to appear frequently.
Many scholars speculated on this issue and concluded that perhaps the universe was too vast, and Earth was comparatively insignificant. Therefore, true gods wouldn't pay attention to it. At most, beings like China's old immortal might reside for a long time.
Regardless, beings like these semi-divine entities were not something ordinary humans could deal with. Just one of them could easily destroy any country on Earth.
"But I remember that this old immortal used to need the country to provide some resources. At that time, domestic experts even speculated that he had a group behind him. Why doesn't he need anything now?"
Ignoring Gui Bin, the old immortal turned around again, his tone calm yet carrying dignity. "The purpose of that angel coming here is not a secret. Mainly, in a country in the northeast direction, there is an aura of evil gods. This aura made the angel uneasy, so she came here to take a look. At the same time, she also wants to meet me."
"After all, she is just an angel bestowed with power by the gods, considered a junior to me. Since she came politely, as a country known for etiquette, we should wholeheartedly entertain her."
Upon hearing the words of the old immortal, Gui Bin's mind raced with thoughts.
For example, from the old immortal's words, he could sense the indifference of the old immortal towards the Christian nun. It was probably because the nun was directly bestowed with power by God, while he attained his strength through his own cultivation. Hence, there might be a significant gap between them.
Additionally, the old immortal mentioned a country in the northeast direction. Was it North Korea or South Korea? But regardless of which one, this information was already sufficient.
Moreover, at this point, Gui Bin had vaguely understood that the incident was happening in South Korea. As the director of the Special Operations Division, he had access to numerous classified intelligence, such as knowing that a forbidden book was currently in the hands of a cult leader in South Korea, and that book was precisely for summoning evil gods. This aligned perfectly with what the old immortal had mentioned.
For Gui Bin, who was well aware that the old immortal rarely left Huangshan, the fact that he could be aware of worldly events added to his awe.
"So, the nun came to China because of the situation in South Korea."
Thinking this, Gui Bin was unsure about what he should do next. The tasks assigned by the organization seemed to have already been completed by him.
"When that angel arrives, I will personally meet with her."
While Gui Bin was still pondering on how to initiate a conversation with the old man, he was stunned upon hearing this statement. Soon after, he was filled with joy and anticipation. With the old immortal personally involved, the government wouldn't have to worry about the Christian nun anymore!
