Crossing into Immortal Cultivation

  Xu Ziqing finally decided not to ask after all.

  It's still unclear what the specific arrangements for the "Dragon Gate" conference are, but it's better to be prepared in advance. Even if it's a bit early, isn't he supposed to attend the Dragon Gate event next year?

  Everything will be said later when it's all over.

  With this thought in mind, Xu Ziqing was no longer entangled with worries.

  He is now just waiting for half a month later.

  The 15th day passed in an instant.

  At dawn, Su Xing stepped on the red flying sword, and in an instant, he arrived at the stone cliff outside Lingguan Mountain.

  The young man in red was exceptionally handsome, with a heroic and elegant demeanor, exuding an air of being a proud son of heaven: "Brother Qing, come out quickly! Are you ready?"

  Xu Ziqing walked out of the quiet room and saw Su Xun, then smiled slightly: "Younger brother Ah Xun has arrived early."

  These days, Xu Zi Qing did not waste his time either. Because he didn't know the specific situation of the Ascending Dragon 'Gate' conference, he took advantage of this half-month period to purchase many things in the Exchange Hall. He must be planning to stay on Teng Long Peak and then make a desperate bid to build his foundation and enter the great world. Afterwards, it's likely that he won't return to the Scattered Repair Alliance again. Therefore, he needs to carefully think through the necessary preparations.

  At this point, Xu Ziqing exchanged many beast Dans and various beast skins for talismans, elixirs, spirit pearls and other items outside of the Wind Attribute demonic dans in his storage ring. He also bought a considerable amount of spiritual herbs and seeds that he didn't have on hand but might be useful later, which made him feel slightly more at ease.

  Su Xian saw Xu Ziqing's refreshing appearance and knew he was very concerned about this time, so he smiled and said: "Brother Ziqing looks radiant, I suppose you have a plan in mind."

  Xu Ziqing's expression was calm and gentle: "It's always best to do one's best." He knew that Su Xun's temperament was impatient, so he said, "Wait a moment, Brother Xun. I'll have a word with Qingfeng Miaoyue first before coming back."

  He did this, and Xun was also thoughtful, humming a sound, saying: "Brother Zi Qing is still so kind." Then he walked to the side, sorted out his thoughts and waited.

  Qingfeng Miaoyue had been standing solemnly by the side, and upon hearing this, he followed respectfully and stood in front of Xu Ziqing, waiting for his orders.

  Xu Ziqing saw that the two were awkward, so he softened his tone and said: "I'm rushing to the Shenglong Gate meeting today, I may not be able to return. You two have served me for many days, it's been very hard work, so I'll give you each a gift, to fulfill this master-servant relationship."

  Qingfeng and Miaoyue exchanged a glance, both of them were overjoyed.

  They, as servants, naturally had their own channels of information and knew about this major event long ago. Originally thinking that the master was so talented, he must be going to a distant place in the great world, at which time they two would be arranged to serve other masters. They were lucky to have a gentle and kind master, but what kind of temperament another master had, they couldn't know, and with worries in their hearts, they were naturally reluctant to part with him.

  It never occurred to them that the benefits of serving these masters would go beyond this. In the past, they were lucky if they weren't beaten or scolded while serving the cultivators. Who would have thought that now they would be given gifts? For warriors, even the things that slipped through the fingers of the cultivators were probably extremely precious treasures.

  The two of them heard this and immediately bowed their heads: "Thank you, Immortal Xu, for your reward!" After speaking, they passed their hands over their heads and respectfully raised them.

  Xu Ziqing saw this and knew they were sincere in their fear, so he didn't make things difficult for them. With a flick of his sleeve, the objects had already been placed in the hands of the two men.

  Qingfeng and Miaoyue both felt a sudden weight in their hands, and then Xu Ziqing didn't say much to them either. He just smiled and walked towards Su Xun's side.

  Su Xuan had long been waiting impatiently, and when he saw Xu Ziqing coming over, he pulled his sleeve, took a leap, and the two of them stood on the flying sword. In an instant, the flying sword soared into the sky.

  At this time, Qingfeng Miao Yue finally dared to put down her hands and take a look at what was in her hands.

  Qingfeng held a rod as long as his index finger, with a glossy black body that shone brightly. Miaoyue, on the other hand, held a ceramic bottle that was heavy to the touch.

  Two people looked at each other, Qingfeng hesitated for a moment, bit his finger, and dripped it onto the stick. The fresh blood seeped in, and the stick immediately grew with the wind, and in the blink of an eye, it was as long as a person. On top of it were written the three characters "Tian Xin Gun", weighing over 2,000 catties!

  Qingfeng, who was trained by the Dispersed Cultivation Alliance and was a 9th-level warrior himself, naturally had a good eye for things. This staff looked ordinary at first glance, but on closer inspection, it emitted a faint, soft glow. Its rounded shape gleamed with a cold light, and it felt extremely heavy... The material used to cast it was clearly none other than Xuan Guang Tie, a metal that even low-level cultivators could use!

  Among warriors, a weapon forged by Xuan Guang's iron is priceless, yet it now lies in his hands, truly making him feel deeply moved.

  Miao Yue also had insight, seeing Qing Feng so joyful, she too had some expectations, gritted her teeth and pulled out the bottle stopper. Suddenly a refreshing fragrance filled her nostrils. She carefully looked at the bottle, carefully poured out a drop into her palm.

  That one came out, unexpectedly round and rolling in her hand, its color like mercury, with every drop being a fine, glittering light.

  Miao Yue's eyes widened, Qing Feng had already called out: "Silver Pearl 'Revealing' Water!"

  All martial artists who practice will inevitably suffer internal injuries, causing internal damage to accumulate. If they are lucky enough to enter the pre-heavenly stage or recover, but if not, it will harm their 'life' and make progress in martial arts difficult. The meridians of female practitioners are weaker than those of male practitioners, making them more prone to injury. Therefore, many female martial artists die young, and those who truly achieve success are extremely rare.

  However, there is a kind of divine medicine that can remove the hidden injuries of martial artists without any aftereffects. It's this Silver Pearl Dew. But it's extremely rare, even in families with innate martial artists, they almost never have this item, let alone ordinary people who serve as servants... Most cultivators are too proud to bother, even if getting this dew isn't difficult for them, who would be willing to go through the trouble for a servant?

  Miao Yue took a deep breath, and her eyes were already slightly red around the edges.

  Qingfeng also stood with her, the two of them didn't say much this time, both had already knelt down respectfully. They looked into the distance at Xu Ziqing and Su Xun flying away on their swords, then bowed their heads to pay respects.

  Everyone said: "I wish Xu Xian a smooth journey to immortality, and may he become an immortal and a saint soon!"

  If you want to go to Tenglong Mountain Range, the road is far away, and when you get closer, there are many difficulties and obstacles.

  So when attending the meeting, there are often teachers and elders accompanying them. Especially this time, with Siu Huen's cultivation being insufficient, it is also necessary for someone to accompany him in order to follow the rules of guarding the 'gate'.

  Su Xun came to invite Xu Ziqing, but it wasn't just the two of them traveling together. They still had to wait for the people from the Loose Cultivation Alliance who were responsible for escorting them, as well as a few other cultivators who had also obtained quotas.

  They went back down to the Longevity Temple in the Inner Alliance and waited for the other cultivators to arrive.

  Just then, several colored lights flashed across the sky, some with a stern air and others with a mysterious meaning, but soon they all fell to the ground.

  They were all five or six years old, under fifty, and their cultivation was above the ninth layer of refining Qi. Each of them had an extraordinary aura on their body, and the pressure they revealed was also remarkable.

  Xu Ziqing saw that these cultivators all had magical instruments in their hands, each of which was extremely fine and shining with precious light. They were either handsome men or beautiful women, with a strong aura emanating from them, very proud and arrogant. There was even one person whose cultivation he couldn't see clearly, it could be seen that this person's cultivation was at least above the tenth layer of Qi Refining.

  He looked at everyone like this, and everyone also looked at him in a flurry.

  These masters who got the quota, without exception, are all disciples of the various elders. Their spiritual roots and heavenly luck may be slightly inferior to Su Xuan's, but they are also among the best. Being able to participate in this Dragon Gate Conference is undoubtedly the most anticipated event.

  However, Xu Ziqing was different.

  Xu Ziqing was not a member of the Loose Cultivation Alliance from a young age, and he had only been an outer alliance member for two years. The crowd had never heard that he made any contributions to the Loose Cultivation Alliance, nor did they think he was trustworthy. Yet, it was precisely this kind of person who could obtain one of the limited spots.

  It's really astonishing.

  What's even more strange is that their masters and elder seniors, although displeased, did not stop this matter, or perhaps they were suppressed by the alliance leader... In short, Xu Ziqing had heard of these arrogant ones several times, but didn't know much about them. The alliance leader and elders all avoided talking about this person's affairs, which added to his mysterious aura, making people secretly speculate.

  But guessing is just guessing, and it's unwise to reveal one's thoughts.

  In the vast Loose Cultivation Alliance, there may be more cultivators who meet the conditions, but only these few were selected. It can be seen that they are shouldering great expectations and will truly interact with some talented and outstanding individuals, and it's not like they would be so foolish and rude.

  So they quickly sized up Xu Ziqing and then nodded their heads in greeting, which was equivalent to saying hello.

  To them, Xu Ziqing seemed like just an ordinary gentle youth, without anything special about him. It's really unknown why the alliance valued him so much.

  Su Xun was always by Xu Zi Qing's side, so he naturally saw the various opinions of his fellow disciples towards Xu Zi Qing. He raised an eyebrow and said to Xu Zi Qing: "Brother Zi Qing, these are Hu Chang Lao's disciple Rang Xing Jian Shixiong, Hua Chang Lao's disciple Hui Fei Zhang Shixiong, Chen Chang Lao's disciple Min Cai Zhe Shixiong, Qin Chang Lao's disciple Tong Yuan Si Shixiong, Zhao Chang Lao's disciple He Jing Hui Shixiong and Bai Chang Lao's disciple Zhuo Han Yan Shi Jie. Among them, Zhuo Han Yan Shi Jie is the most formidable, her cultivation has reached the 10th layer of Lian Qi, after which she only needs to take one more step to reach the 'door' and establish her foundation."

  Xu Ziqing knew that Su Xuan was introducing him to the others, and he felt grateful, so he smiled and said: "I am Xu Ziqing, nice to meet you all, fellow Taoists."

  He is actually not one of us, and cannot be called brother or sister.

  Su Xuan pulled Xu Ziqing's sleeve again and smiled at the six cultivators: "Everyone, I'm younger, and my master has also told you to take care of me. But this brother is only a few years older than me, so it's easy for all of you to take care of him too, right?"

  There was a Tong Yuansi who was rather straightforward: "We are all loose cultivators in the alliance, if you are indeed younger than me, then taking care of you is no big deal. However, I am only 12 years older than you, what about Xu Dao?"

  Su Xun couldn't help but smile: "My brother Zi Qing is only just twenty years old this year, how about it? Isn't he younger than all of you?"

  As soon as these words came out, all the monks were shocked and looked at each other in dismay.

  If he really reached the 9th layer of Lianqi at the age of 20, what kind of talent is that? Among the people present, except for Su Xuan who had just purified his spiritual root, the rest were all over 30 years old. It's not just Xu Ziqing who has been cultivating for ten more years!

  If it is because of this, Xu Ziqing being valued by the Alliance Master is also not a difficult thing to imagine...
