Chapter 34 Separate

  Looking at Zhao Chuntong and Xue's surname girl disappearing in the gate of Zhenwu Hall, Lin Feng said somewhat dejectedly: "Let's go back." After finishing speaking, he turned around and left, not even bothering to look at Deng Bin who was staring at him with angry eyes.

  Wang Lei and Zhou Lan didn't have the energy to bother with Deng Bin's nonsense, they were feeling down just like Lin Feng. Who had the time to care about these trivial matters? The five of them had been together for five years, not inseparable but their relationship was pretty good, at least better than those two senior brothers by their side. Five years of friendship, and now it was going to be split apart just like that, no one would be happy about it. Moreover, as cultivators, after this separation, who knew if they would ever meet again or what kind of situation they would find themselves in next time.

  Fortunately, after so many years of practice, their temperament is far superior to that of ordinary people. From another perspective, Zhao Chun and Wu Lin have also made great progress, they should be happy too. So when they returned to the Liang Peng, the three of them also walked out of their sadness.

  "Zhao Chun and Wu Lin Pu were both selected?" Yang Mu saw that only five people returned, guessing that the two had been selected, he was extremely happy in his heart, but still asked in an inquiring tone.

  "Hey, I heard that Zhao is still being targeted by a senior in the Golden Elixir stage!" Zhou Lan spoke quickly, pouring out the story of how the two were chosen, and Yang Mu and several other masters couldn't help but smile.

  After a while, Yang Mu waved his hand to stop everyone's excitement and said: "Alright, now our family has two disciples entering the Qingyang Gate, and Zhao Chun is even taken as a disciple by a Golden Dan period senior. This time's purpose can be considered extremely successful. However, we now have a difficult problem - the Deng family will definitely not let us leave easily. So we must take advantage of the fact that the selection show has not yet ended to quickly get rid of them. Everyone follow me." After finishing speaking, he led the way towards the Zhenwu Great Hall.

  Lin Feng and the others were all bewildered. Since they were supposed to leave Qingyang Gate as soon as possible, why did they have to go further inside? The few of them had doubts in their hearts, but seeing that several Shifu uncles didn't show any hesitation, they immediately followed suit.

  In the blink of an eye, they arrived at a small gate beside the Zhenwu Temple. A cultivator from the Qingyang Gate's foundation-building period was already waiting there. Yang Mu said a few words to him and handed over two bottles of Xiao Pei Yuan Dan from his sleeve. The cultivator took them in hand, glanced at them, smiled, and put them away, saying: "Please follow me this way." With that, he released his flying sword and flew up slowly into the distance.

  At this point, Lin Feng had already understood that Yang Mu was buying his way through. The Qingyang Gate was so vast and expansive, with multiple entrances and exits, not just the one they took earlier. As long as they could bribe someone from the Qingyang Gate to show them the way, it wouldn't be difficult at all. However, seeing the two bottles of Xiao Pei Yuan Dan that the master had handed over earlier, which were probably worth over a thousand spirit stones, Lin Feng knew that this toll was not cheap.

  With the guidance of the Qingyangmen cultivator, several of Yang's fellow disciples also released their flying swords and quickly followed Lin Feng and the others. Following behind the cultivator, after seven twists and eight turns, the group had already flown over several mountain peaks, and after turning around another mountain peak, a winding road appeared in front of them, leading downwards. Along this road, they flew for less than five breaths before arriving at a mountain gate.

  There were not many people entering and leaving the mountain gate, but they all wore the uniform Taoist robes of Qingyang Gate, so after simply checking their waist cards, they were allowed to pass. When a group of people from the Yang family flew in wearing different clothes, the cultivators guarding the mountain gate did not show much surprise, but only shouted loudly: "Dismount and walk when entering or leaving the mountain gate." Apparently, outsiders often enter and exit here too.

  "Master Zhang, you've worked hard. It's me, bringing a few friends to take a shortcut. I hope Master can make an exception." The leading Qingyangmen cultivator immediately stepped forward and said with a smile to the guardian of the mountain gate.

  "Oh, it's Liu Shidi, good, good. These people are here to participate in the Kaishanmen selection contest, right?" The leader of the mountain gate was also a foundation-building cultivator, who chuckled and said, but his words were pleasant, yet he stood in the middle without giving way.

  The leading monk had long been prepared, took a few steps forward, and pulled out a spiritual stone from his bosom, which he handed over. The leader of the monks guarding the mountain gate then stepped aside with a smile, saying: "Brother Liu is really polite, please hurry your friend to pass by, standing at the door blocking the way is not good."

  Lin Feng stood behind, not seeing whether the leading monk passed over was a spiritual stone or a spiritual elixir, but that action he saw clearly. The master of the house used spiritual elixirs to buy his way, and the leading monk used either spiritual elixirs or spiritual stones to pass through the customs. For Lin Feng, who was 15 years old and about to enter the cultivation world, it was a great eye-opener, and he was also shocked. It made him vaguely understand that whether in the cultivation world or the mortal world, money could always work wonders, the difference being that the two worlds used different currencies, one using gold and silver, the other using spiritual stones and elixirs.

  Out of the Qingyang Gate, the Daoist priest pointed out the route back to Feilu City and then turned around and left. Lin Feng had already expressed his desire to practice alone, so he also bid farewell to the Yang family here. The Daoist priest was accustomed to parting ways and had been practicing for many years, so his nature was very calm, making the farewell extremely simple, with just a brief explanation being enough.

  But Lin Feng was only fifteen years old, and it was his first time going out alone, so Yang Ze still had some concerns. He repeatedly reminded him of some things to pay attention to, which made Lin Feng feel warm inside. However, there is a limit to how much one can say, and Lin Feng didn't want to keep the other masters waiting, so he interrupted Yang Ze's lengthy speech, saying: "I understand what you're saying, Master. I'll be careful. There's also something else I'd like to ask for your help with."

  "What is it, just say it. As long as Master Ze can help, he will definitely not decline." Yang Ze still felt guilty for Lin Feng giving up the opportunity to enter Qingyang Gate for the sake of his family's interests. He thought that no matter how difficult Lin Feng's request was at this time, he would try his best to fulfill it.

  "For five years, I have been cultivating and haven't been able to return home to see my parents, which fills me with guilt. I had thought of returning home once, but since my cultivation has not borne fruit, I fear that I would be a disappointment to my family. Therefore, I want Master Yang to go in my place to pay them a visit. Also, here are 500 taels of silver, please pass it on to my father." As he spoke, Lin Feng took out the silver from his storage bag and handed it over to Yang Ze.

  All this silver was the monthly allowance given by the Yang family over the past few years. Lin Feng had food and drink in the Yang family, so he didn't use much of it, and after five years, a lot had accumulated. He had long planned that if he couldn't enter Qingyang Gate this time, he would return home for a visit, but seeing so many spiritual herbs and mines in the Xi Lian Mountains, he changed his mind and decided to practice here for two years, so he could only ask Yang Ze to help bring it to his parents.

  Yang Zeman thought Lin Feng had some great difficulty that needed his help, but after fussing about for half a day, it turned out to be just this small matter. He couldn't help but laugh and cry as he said: "I thought it was something big, but it's actually this. I think of your Master Uncle, a dignified Foundation Establishment cultivator, yet in the end, he became someone who runs errands for you."

  It's said that, but he still happily accepted the silver and considered the matter settled. Lin Feng always had his parents in mind, showing that he valued relationships and righteousness; such a disciple was worth cultivating with care. Thinking of the promise he made to Lin Feng, Yang Ze felt not the slightest regret, instead feeling some anticipation.

  Lin Feng finished explaining things and was afraid that Yang Ze would nag on endlessly, so he said: "I still want to say a few words to Wang Shixiong and Zhou Shijie, can I?"

  "Of course, I'll go call them over." After saying that, he patted Lin Feng's shoulder and turned to leave.

  Before long, Wang Lei and Zhou Lan walked over. "Lin Shidi, you have a big face, several shifus are standing by waiting for you for half a day, what's going on, is there something else?" Zhou Lan hadn't arrived yet, but her voice was already loud.

  Wang Lei's temperament was relatively gentle, and he understood the situation. Although several people were used to joking around casually, at this time he didn't want Lin Feng to feel embarrassed, so he helped to ease the tension by saying: "Lin Shidi is a man of great loyalty and righteousness, and our masters also value him for this trait, it's okay to wait a bit."

  "You're a good man! Speak up, Lin Shidi, if there's anything you need me to help with, just say it." Zhou Lan glared at Wang Lei and said to Lin Feng.

  "Hehe, Zhou Shijie is quick-witted and straightforward. In that case, I don't have much to say either. There's just one thing that's a bit of a bother, and I need both of your help with it. I hope you won't refuse."

  "What's going on? You and I have been fellow disciples for five years, is there anything that can't be helped? Speak up, as long as we can do it, we'll definitely help, right, Brother Wang?" Zhou Lan said straightforwardly.

  "That's for sure, what Master Zhou said is exactly what I mean. If there's anything you need to say, just go ahead and we won't decline." Wang Lei also readily agreed.

  "Alright, what I need your help with is... this. You two must take it." Lin Feng quickly pulled out twenty bottles of low-grade Qi Gathering Pills from his storage bag and handed ten to each of them.

  "Ah!" The two exclaimed in unison, almost dropping the jade bottle in their arms. It wasn't until after a long while that Wang Lei spoke up: "Lin... Lin Shidi, where did you get so many Qi-restoring pellets?"

  "Could it be that you stole... the Dan room of Master Yang Zhe?" Zhou Lan also stuttered, a jade bottle containing ten Qi-replenishing pills, twenty bottles would be two hundred pills, so many Qi-replenishing pills were suddenly taken out from Lin Feng's hands, they immediately thought crookedly.

  "Look, you can tell just by looking at you that you're all from the wilderness and haven't seen the world. If I had stolen Yang Ze's elixir, would I dare to take it out so openly? Let me tell you, this is something I refined myself. Without some ability, would I dare venture out into the world alone?" Lin Feng said lightly, but his heart was filled with many thoughts.

  All three were rejected by the Qingyang Gate due to their poor qualifications, and in the future, they will not receive much help from their families for their cultivation, and need to rely on their own efforts. Cultivation will be very difficult.

  But Lin Feng had superior alchemy skills and the treasure jade as a safeguard, so their journey would be much smoother from now on. Thinking back to his own aimless and helpless days when he first started, Lin Feng could empathize with the two's current state of mind, and thus had the idea to lend them a hand. Originally, he wanted to give them some mid-grade pellets, but it would be difficult to keep the secret of the mid-grade pellets if he did that, so he decided to give them more low-grade pellets instead.

  A mere 200 first-grade elixirs were nothing to him, but for Wang Lei and Zhou Lan, it was a huge fortune. Moreover, the most important thing was that they were now in the golden period of improving their cultivation, and with these elixirs, they might be able to advance to the seventh or eighth layer of the Qi Refining stage within a few years, laying a good foundation for building their foundation.

  Wang Lei and Zhou Lan also understood the benefits of these pills for them, with their qualifications. If it was uncertain whether they could enter the foundation period in their lifetime before, now with these pills, they had a great opportunity to enter the foundation period. For cultivators, this was undoubtedly a great blessing.
