Eternal life begins with saving my clan

Chapter 123: Giving A Small Courtyard



There were special cultivators in charge of hosting the True Treasure Pavilion's auction. They were different from guest elders and deacons. They were sent from the higher-level True Treasure Pavilion of the Fire Toad Cave and the Northern Rock Marsh Region.

Be it the main station or the Wei Kingdom's branch station like the Cloud Mountain Parlour, they would not be recruited from the Wei Kingdom and the cultivation world of the twelve countries.

Shen Ping did not know this information in the past, but as his identity and authority increased, he could easily obtain it from the core jade token.

The advancement of the host was even stricter, but the treatment was much better.

For example, the Golden Core Perfected in front of him was the number one auctioneer at the headquarters. Although he was only at the initial stage of the Golden Core Realm, his treatment was comparable to Deacon Xia.

When Shen Ping walked over, his gaze subconsciously landed on the slightly solemn and elegant palace dress. Compared to the qualification test, this palace dress was even fuller. The majestic curves and outline vividly portrayed the word 'beautiful and enchanting'. She just stood there and her charming temperament had already made people forget that she was a Golden Core Daoist.

"Senior Qiu." Shen Ping cupped his hands and bowed.

Perfected Qiu stood with a smile. "I took the liberty to visit. I didn't disturb Guest Elder Shen's cultivation, did I?"

"Senior, you must be joking. It's really an honor to have you visit this small courtyard. Please, come in."

The two of them arrived at the hall. Shen Ping personally filled the cup with spirit tea and handed it over. Perfected Qiu took a sip and actually walked around. Her eyes sized up the simple hall. Her footsteps were light and rhythmic. With every step she took, the roundness behind her hair became more charming.

Shen Ping also stood up. He could not help but secretly glance at the roundness from the corner of his eye. He thought to himself that the quality of this material was probably extraordinary. He wondered about the scenery inside.

"Guest Elder Shen's courtyard is quite unique. But the spiritual energy is a little lacking." As she spoke, Perfected Qiu suddenly turned around and looked at Shen Ping, who was looking straight ahead. She smiled. "There's another courtyard in Tongquan Alley. It's filled with spiritual energy and is the core of a Level Three spiritual vein. If you live there, your cultivation speed will be faster.

"Furthermore, I heard that Guest Elder Shen has several Dao companions. It might be too crowded to live here. Why don't you move to Tongquan Alley some other day? It'll be more comfortable to live there."

Shen Ping shook his head and said, "The Tongquan Alley is where Golden Core seniors live. I don't have this fortune."

Perfected Qiu sat on the chair again and drank the spiritual tea. She said slowly, "In the Wei Kingdom, the Jin Kingdom, and the other 12 countries, countless Golden Core cultivators are born every hundred years. However, there are very few Golden Core cultivators who can finally condense their Nascent Soul.

Even most of the Golden Core cultivators at the main station of the True Treasure Pavilion will die in meditation.

"However, it's only a matter of time before a special-class guest elder like Guest Elder Shen condenses his Nascent Soul. It's just a courtyard in Tongquan Alley. How can we talk about fortune?"

Shen Ping remained silent. He knew that what Perfected Qiu said was the truth.

In a cultivation environment like the Wei Kingdom, one had to fight for opportunities with all their might to build a foundation. As for Golden Core cultivators, luck, opportunities, and strength were even more indispensable. As for Nascent Souls, the birth of every Nascent Soul consumed more than half of the accumulation of a sect.

However, in the treasure vault of the True Treasure Pavilion, rare treasures, medicinal pills, and other resources of the Foundation Establishment, Golden Core, and Nascent Soul were abundant. As long as one had enough contributions and firmly consolidated the foundation of every step of cultivation, it was indeed not difficult to break through to the Nascent Soul Realm with various rare items.

It was not even an extravagant hope for him to become an expert with a great divine power among the Nascent Souls.

Not to mention anything else, if a top-notch cultivation technique at the Foundation Establishment Realm was placed in the twelve countries, it would probably cause a bloodbath.

Perfected Qiu continued, "Guest Elder Shen, you don't have to worry about the rent of Tongquan Alley. Now, the entire Qingyang City is under the jurisdiction of the two sects, the Danxia Sect and the Acacia Faction. These two sects have a deep cooperation with my True Treasure Pavilion. You only need to invite two Golden Cores to your Foundation Establishment banquet.

In the future, you don't have to pay the rent of this small courtyard in Tongquan Alley.

"Moreover, it's more convenient for the senior beside Guest Elder Shen to cultivate in Tongquan Alley."

Shen Ping was indeed tempted.

Although Huiquan Alley was enough for him and his wife and concubines, the environment at the core of the Level Three spiritual vein would undoubtedly be better. His metal and wood spiritual roots would be able to break through in a few years. If he lived in Tongquan Alley, the cultivation speed of the Foundation Establishment Realm would be much faster.

Thinking of this, he cupped his hands and said, "I'll have to trouble Senior Qiu after the Foundation Establishment Banquet."

Perfected Qiu smiled and said, "This is also Elder Peng's wish. Moreover, it's our fortune to be able to provide convenience to Guest Elder Shen."

She finished the spirit tea and stood up to leave.

When Shen Ping sent her to the door, Perfected Qiu suddenly smiled charmingly and asked, "Guest Elder Shen, what spirit wine do you usually like to drink?"

Shen Ping thought for a moment and said, "I don't have any special hobbies. A few years ago, I was lucky enough to drink a glass of Ice Dew Jade Treasure Wine. I still remember it…"

Before he could finish speaking, a familiar yet unfamiliar smell of alcohol wafted into his nose. A wine jug was floating in Perfected Qiu's palm. "Ice Dew Jade Treasure Wine?!"

"Yes." Perfected Qiu waved her hand, and the wine pot landed in front of Shen Ping. "I'll give this pot of spirit wine to you. If you want to drink it next time, you can come to my residence and drink to your heart's content. There's an even more fragrant spirit wine there. I've already kept it for many years. Guest Elder Shen, there's no need to send me off."

She turned and left. The round and elegant curve of her back gradually disappeared. Shen Ping looked at the Ice Dew Jade Treasure Wine and took a long time to react. He could not help but sigh. "It's really a pot of old wine!"

After that, Foundation Establishment cultivators and even Golden Core cultivators came to visit almost every two to three days.

After the qualification assessment, many guest elders of the True Treasure Pavilion were still watching. Even if they wanted to get to know Shen Ping, they were not in a hurry to further contact him.

But things are different now.

The news from Elder Peng and Deacon Xia made the guest elders of the True Treasure Pavilion, the auction hosts, and the cultivators they were close to unable to hold back. After all, the Foundation Establishment banquet was the most suitable opportunity to get to know each other.

If he missed this opportunity, it would be very difficult for him to have other reasons to visit in the future.

They could not forget the scene that day when they welcomed him. Even the Nascent Soul envoy from the headquarters was by his side, and he did not dare to take more steps than Guest Elder Shen.

It was really terrifying to think about it.

In the Southern State of the Wei Kingdom, which was adjacent to the Ze Country.

There were many lakes, rivers, and swamps here, especially the swamp. It was deeper and wider than the Cloud Mountain Swamp. There were many powerful demons hidden inside. It was said that the Ancestor Blood Crocodile had fought his way out of here when he was weak.

Puff! Puff!

A few earth-colored conical dharma artifacts quickly pierced through the eyes of a demon beast from the left and right. Then, Di Shouye took advantage of the moment when the demon beast's vision was chaotic and flashed. He descended from above and stabbed with the broad-bladed sword in his hand.

In the next second, Chong Yi's voice sounded. "Compared to a few years ago, your combat ability has improved quite well. Your Foundation Establishment magic power has completely stabilized. After training for a few more years with the help of medicinal pills and resources, you should be able to break through to the second level of Foundation Establishment."

Di Shouye hurriedly cupped his hands and said, "Thank you for your praise, Master."

"Pack up and return to Qingyang City. Talisman Master Shen, who sat with your junior brothers and sisters at the Foundation Establishment Banquet, has already reached the Foundation Establishment realm."

Di Shouye was stunned for a moment. "So soon?" Then, he said happily, "Master, Talisman Master Shen is in the Foundation Establishment Realm. In the future, I can visit him to seek guidance in the Dao of Talismans, right? If I used a Level Two offensive talisman just now, I'm confident that I can kill this demon beast in dozens of breaths!"

Chong Ji thought of Shopkeeper Qu's instructions and couldn't help but say, "Now, even I don't have the qualifications to visit Talisman Master Shen. You should give up on cultivating and studying the Dao of Talismans as soon as possible."

"Ah!" Di Shouye said in shock, "Master, how is this possible? You're a second-grade guest elder of the True Treasure Pavilion. Although Talisman Master Shen is successful in Foundation Establishment, he's only a third-grade guest elder!"

Smack.

Chong Ji expertly slapped the back of his disciple's head.

"You idiot. A few years ago, Talisman Master Shen was only at the ninth level of Qi Refinement. He's now in the Foundation Establishment Realm, since his cultivation level has increased, how could his Talisman Daoism level not have increased?

"Just last month, Talisman Master Shen returned from the headquarters of the True Treasure Pavilion and successfully passed the special-class guest elder assessment. This time, if not for Old Qu, I'm afraid I wouldn't even have the right to participate in the Foundation Establishment banquet!"

Di Shouye was stunned. The face of Talisman Master Shen subconsciously appeared in his mind.

A special-class guest elder…

No matter what, he could not link this together.

"Don't just stand there. Hurry up and pack!" Just as Chong Ji brought his eldest disciple back from the South Continent, Qingyang City quietly became restless.
