After chatting for a while, Xiao Fan could not take it anymore. He took his leave and quickly descended the mountain. However, on the way down, Xiao Fan contacted his master, Pill Elder, crazily in his mind, “Master, Master, quickly come out.”
“What is it?” Pill Elder’s Essence Soul sent a voice transmission.
“Master, you have to think of a way to help me. I boasted in front of Uncle-Master just now that I wanted to establish a ninth-grade Golden Core, but I don’t have any idea or preparation. What should I do?” Xiao Fan asked.
“Oh.” Pill Elder smiled and asked, “Don’t you want to think about the righteous path and the demonic path now?”
Xiao Fan was stunned.
“Although your Uncle-Master did not answer you directly, a few words were enough to make you wake up and escape from unnecessary emotions.”
Pill Elder continued, “I really admire him.”
“So, stupid disciple, do you understand now?” Pill Elder asked.
“I… understand.”
Xiao Fan pondered for a moment before nodding and saying, “I’m only an ordinary cultivator who has just reached the late-stage Foundation Establishment realm. I’m not even at the Core Formation realm, but I’m thinking about what the righteous path and the demonic path are. It’s really a waste of time. If I have the time, I might as well think about how to increase my strength as soon as possible.”
“I think that’s what Uncle-Master means.”
“You’re promising.”
Pill Elder nodded in satisfaction.
“Let’s go.” Pill Elder continued, “I’ll teach you the Core Formation method to establish a ninth-grade Golden Core. This method is called the Magnetic Extreme Mysterious Essence Scripture. You can establish a ninth-grade Magnetic Extreme Golden Core.”
“Yes.”
Xiao Fan was overjoyed.
He stopped in his tracks.
Xiao Fan stood at the foot of the mountain and bowed 90 degrees towards the top of the mountain.
“Disciple thanks Uncle-Master for your guidance.” Xiao Fan said solemnly.
“This kid.”
At the top of the mountain, Qi Ming naturally sensed it, “You’re quite sensible and smart. You didn’t let me waste my breath.”
Three days later, Lü Qingyan came out of seclusion.
It was a cultivation breakthrough.
Lü Qingyan’s seclusion this time was from the late-stage Nascent Soul realm to the early-stage Leaving Aperture realm. It was a major realm breakthrough and her cultivation level was even higher.
Therefore, during the breakthrough, an extremely grand phenomenon appeared, sweeping through the spiritual qi in the surroundings for dozens of kilometers, creating a spiritual qi vacuum. There were even nine-colored lights that were like a rainbow bridge that connected heaven and earth.
It was extremely magnificent.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!!!
Nine Dawn Peak.
There were inner sect elders of the Green Cloud Peak, legacy disciples, and several legacy elders who all came to congratulate Lü Qingyanon her cultivation breakthrough.
Qi Ming specially walked out of the Falling Cloud Peak.
At the Nine Clouds Cave Abode, there was a rainbow-like glow.
The door to the cave abode had already been opened.
Figures walked out of the cave abode. These people were Lü Qingyan’s subordinates and servants. There were men and women, and there were quite a number of them. There were also demons.
“Greetings, Master.”
The subordinates and servants bowed and shouted in unison.
Immediately after, Lü Qingyan walked out of the cave abode.
Qi Ming looked over.
What greeted his eyes was his senior sister, Lü Qingyan. She was dressed in palace robes and had an exquisite face. Her appearance was peerless, and her figure was alluring. Her skin was fair and she had a flourishing appearance.
Moreover, after breaking through, Lü Qingyan’s aura became even stronger, as if a fairy had descended from the sky.
“Congratulations, Elder Lü. Your power has increased greatly. You have broken through and reached the Leaving Aperture realm.”
“Congratulations, Elder Lü.”
“Congratulations, congratulations.”
“…”
The elders congratulated her.
Immediately after, they handed over gifts.
Lü Qingyan asked her maidservant to accept all the gifts from the elders and legacy disciples.
“Senior Sister.” Qi Ming smiled and handed over a gift that he had long prepared, “Congratulations on exiting seclusion.”
Lü Qingyan smiled gently at Qi Ming, “It’s good that you’re here. You don’t have to give me any gifts.”
“How can I do that?” Qi Ming shook his head and said, “It’s a good thing that Senior Sister came out of seclusion and her cultivation increased greatly. The other elders and legacy disciples who came to congratulate have all given gifts. How can I, as your junior brother, be an exception?”
“Senior Sister, please accept it.” Qi Ming said.
“Alright.” Lu Qingyan nodded and accepted Qi Ming’s gift. It was an exquisite green jade box. It was covered by a spirit design, and no one knew what was inside.
Lu Qingyan was a little curious what Qi Ming had given her, but she thought that Qi Ming had just become a legacy disciple and his cultivation level was only at the Core Formation realm. It should not be too expensive.
“Senior Sister, if you’re curious, you can open it now.” Qi Ming said.
“No need.”
Lü Qingyan smiled. She was a little worried. If she opened it here, there would be inner sect elders, legacy disciples, and a few legacy elders around to see it.
If the item was not good, it might make her junior brother feel embarrassed.
Lü Qingyan did not want to do this.
To Lü Qingyan, it was already enough that Qi Ming specially came to see her.
It did not matter if he gave her a gift or not.
Speaking of which…
Among the three legacy elders who came, Feng Zimu had not arrived yet. He should have been delayed by something. Otherwise, his disciple had broken through to the Leaving Aperture realm. He should have been present to oversee such a huge matter.
The three legacy elders who arrived were: Daoist Chi Xia, Daoist Yu Jin, and Elder Wang.
Chi Xia and Yu Jin both had a good relationship with Feng Zimu.
As for Elder Wang, their relationship was more ordinary.
“I’m also quite curious what gift Legacy Disciple Qi has given.”
At this moment, a legacy disciple walked over.
“You are?” Qi Ming took a glance.
“Green Cloud Peak’s legacy disciple, Zuo Weihai.”
The legacy disciple introduced himself, “I’m a disciple of Fairy Feng Xi.”
“Fairy Feng Xi.” Qi Ming pondered.
He swept his gaze.
Among the legacy disciples, Qi Ming saw Yu Xuelan’s figure. After Yu Xuelan noticed Qi Ming’s gaze, she bowed slightly to him.
“Zuo Weihai.”
Immediately after, another legacy disciple came.
This legacy disciple was burly and had a rough appearance. He walked like a dragon and tiger, and his aura was extremely extraordinary, “What does this have to do with you?”
“Fan Zhong.” Zuo Weihai frowned.
Everyone looked over.
No matter what, the appearance of a Leaving Aperture realm elder in the Green Cloud Peak was considered a huge matter. Naturally, many inner sect elders and three legacy elders came.
More than ten legacy disciples arrived.
“Junior Brother.”
Lu Qingyan introduced him to Qi Ming, “This is your senior brother, Fan Zhong. Junior Brother Fan entered Master’s tutelage 38 years earlier than you. He’s also a legacy disciple like you.”
“Junior Brother Qi Ming greets Senior Brother Fan.” Qi Ming bowed.
“You’re welcome.” Fan Zhong waved his hand.
This was actually a small matter.
“Senior Sister, don’t worry, you can open it.” Qi Ming said.
“Really?” Lü Qingyan asked.
Qi Ming nodded.
Lü Qingyan waved her hand and used her Dharmic powers to erase the array formation on the green box. Immediately, an extremely pure spiritual qi fluctuation appeared.
Lü Qingyan’s beautiful eyes were filled with splendor.
Immediately after, the box opened automatically.
Buzz!
A rainbow-like light surged out from inside. It was gorgeous, colorful, and extremely beautiful. Moreover, it contained extremely abundant pure spiritual qi.
When the light and the phenomenon dissipated, everyone looked over and saw the item in the jade box. It was a spirit spring. It was spinning like a vortex and had a seven-colored luster.
Heaven and Earth spiritual object: Seven-Colored Spirit Spring.
“This… this is a heaven and earth spiritual object!”
“It’s actually a heaven and earth spiritual object. Qi Ming actually gave such a precious treasure.”
“Heaven and earth spiritual objects are nurtured by the heavens and earth. No matter what it is, they are rare treasures. They are extremely valuable. Qi Ming gave it away just like that.”
“As expected of Legacy Disciple Qi.”
“…”
In the surroundings, the elders were shocked.
“Junior Brother, I can’t take this thing. It’s too precious.”
Lü Qingyan immediately closed it and returned it to Qi Ming.
“Senior Sister, don’t say that.”
Qi Ming shook his head and said, “Back at the Heaven Enlightenment Assembly, if not for Senior Sister risking your life to save me, I might have already died.”
“You have to accept this gift. Otherwise, you won’t acknowledge me as your junior brother.”
Lü Qingyan did not know what to say.
Lü Qingyan’s cultivation level had just broken through to the Leaving Aperture realm. The Seven-Colored Spirit Spring was also very suitable for her. It could completely repair her intrinsic Dharma treasure and bring it to a higher level.
“Alright.”
Lü Qingyan accepted it.
“This Qi Ming…” Zuo Weihai frowned and said in a low voice, “He actually took out such a treasure. I was almost slapped in the face by him.”
Yu Xuelan lowered her head and pondered. She felt more and more that this Qi Ming was extremely not simple. To be able to rise to this extent from a servant disciple, he definitely possessed a huge fortuitous encounter.
Perhaps they could make use of him.
Immediately after, Lü Qingyan held a banquet to entertain the elders and legacy disciples who came to congratulate her. The three legacy elders did not participate and only congratulated her for a while before leaving.
The next day, the banquet ended.
Qi Ming and Lü Qingyan chatted about many things. It was not until noon that Master Feng Zimu arrived late. However, he brought an extremely precious gift to Lü Qingyan.
It was called the demon core of a water demon beast.
This was a late-stage Leaving Aperture realm water demon beast.
The reason why Feng Zimu came late was to kill this late-stage Leaving Aperture realm water demon beast. He had taken its demon core to let Lü Qingyan refine her intrinsic treasure.
“Seven-Colored Spirit Spring.”
After hearing Lü Qingyan’s explanation, Feng Zimu’s face was filled with surprise. He looked at Qi Ming and said, “Kid, where did you get this Heaven and Earth spiritual object from?”
“I was lucky to obtain it.” Qi Ming replied.
This was the reward Qi Ming had obtained half a month ago when he was bored and cleared the Heavenly Constellation Thirty-six Caves. He originally thought that if his cultivation level increased, the reward for clearing the Heavenly Constellation Thirty-six Caves would decrease. He did not expect to accidentally obtain this Heaven and Earth spiritual object.
This Heaven and Earth spiritual object was not very useful to Qi Ming. After knowing that his senior sister had broken through and came out of seclusion, he remembered that she had the Dark Water Dao Body, so he gave it to her.
Qi Ming’s conversation with Lü Qingyan this time allowed him to know a lot of things.
After giving away the water demon beast core, Feng Zimu left.
At noon, Qi Ming also returned.
Qi Ming got to know the other senior brothers and senior sisters through Senior Sister Lü Qingyan.
First, they were Senior Brother Fan Zhong, who was also a legacy disciple, and Senior Sister Zheng Feijuan, who was also a legacy disciple, as well as eight other senior brothers and senior sisters who were also in-name disciples like Senior Sister Lü Qingyan.
Qi Ming was the youngest.
As for the other senior brothers and senior sisters, they did not come. Perhaps it was because they were busy, or perhaps they did not want to come at all.
Even if they were fellow disciples, they did not necessarily have a deep relationship. There were also some who were close and some who were distant.
For example, Fan Zhong, Zheng Feijuan, Lü Qingyan, and Qi Ming were closer. They were more distant from the other senior brothers and sisters.
This was very normal.
