Chapter 48: The Noble Sister

  Xuantu Star, the planet where the Holy Alliance's scattered immortals reside. Initially, Xuantu Star was just an ordinary planet, but by chance, the founder of the Holy Alliance, Qingmu Scattered Immortal, crossed the thousand-year Scattered Immortal Tribulation here and suddenly discovered that the heavenly tribulation's power was much smaller than in other places. Overjoyed, Qingmu Scattered Immortal gathered many scattered immortal friends to live here permanently, eventually forming today's Holy Alliance. With the help of his friends and his own efforts, Qingmu Scattered Immortal crossed the twelvefold Scattered Immortal Tribulation, becoming the first scattered immortal in the Cultivation Realm to do so. As a result, Xuantu Star gained more and more favor from scattered immortals.

  After so many years of hard work, Xuantu Star's environment has become better and better, with a scenery like a paradise on earth.

  A faint, elusive spiritual energy enveloped the entire atmosphere of Xuan Dou Star, a beauty that was both ethereal and mesmerizing. Each strand of spiritual energy had a different color, intertwining and swirling around each other in a dazzling display, leaving Sun Ming momentarily entranced.

  "Heh heh, Xuantu Star indeed lives up to its reputation as the Holy Alliance's stronghold. This Spirit Gathering Array surrounding the entire planet is so intricate that I couldn't even discern its layout." Sun Ming sighed.

  "Heh heh, I've heard the older generation of our sect's seniors say that the Spirit Gathering Array of Xuan Du Xing was set up by Qing Mu Xian Ren before his ascension to heaven after passing through twelve dispersals of the Immortal Tribulation. It seems to be using a technique from the heavenly realm, so it's normal if you can't understand it." Tian Yi Xiao said.

  "After passing through the twelve calamities of the scattered immortals, what kind of cultivation is that? Even ordinary immortals can't compare to it." Ling Xing sighed.

  "Hehe, the cultivation of a loose immortal is to go through nine deaths and one life every thousand years, and they have to cross the heavenly tribulation once. Each time it gets more and more perilous, by the twelfth time, even destroying heaven and earth might not be enough to describe the power of this heavenly tribulation. However, although the cultivation of a loose immortal is perilous, each time they cross the heavenly tribulation, they can gain a huge promotion. The cultivation of a loose immortal after twelve tribulations is not something that ordinary immortals can compare with, probably only those great Mahayana Golden Immortals can be mentioned in the same breath." Tian Huo explained.

  "Is it Dahluo Golden Immortal? Are there different titles for immortals with different cultivation levels? Master, can you explain to us?" asked Lingyu.

  "Haha, don't ask about these things, when you transcend and ascend, you will naturally know. Telling you now will only increase unnecessary wild thoughts." Tian Huo smiled and said.

  "Hmph, if you don't want to say it, then I won't listen either." Ling Xing pouted and stopped talking, her smiling face flushing red with anger, which made Tian Huo and Tian Yi burst out laughing.

  Sun Ming became depressed in his heart 'Daluo Jinxian? Master Yun Zhongzi didn't mention that there is a level of Daluo Jinxian among the immortals, I don't know how it compares to Taiyi Jinxian and Taiyi Xuanshen, it seems that this really isn't the Xiuzhen world of Master Yun Zhongzi after all, even the immortals are different. But why can so many cultivation methods from Master Yun Zhongzi's Xiuzhen world be cultivated here? I don't understand, maybe I'll only understand when I become a saint. Forget it, I won't think about it anymore, I'll ask Master Yun Zhongzi when he wakes up, I myself can't figure out the reason.'

  As the Stellaluna flew into the Xuan Dou Star, Sun Ming also stopped his idle thoughts. The Stellaluna finally came to a stop above a rather majestic city. However, it couldn't be considered a city because it didn't have any city walls. But saying it wasn't a city wouldn't be right either, as this group of buildings was quite large and seemed to be on the same level as those few cities in Ling Jian Star.

  As soon as Sun Ming and his group walked out of the Dingxing Disk, they were surrounded by a crowd of onlookers, apparently this Dingxing Disk was quite eye-catching. However, Tianyi Elder was very gracious, casually putting away the Dingxing Disk and leading Sun Ming and others towards the city in front of them under the gaze of the crowd.

  "Master, where is this place?" Ling Xing couldn't help but ask first. After all, in their eyes, cultivators should be opening up caves in some spiritual mountains, but the group of people in front of them seemed to have quite high cultivation levels, yet they were going in and out of this city, which was indeed a bit unusual.

  "Haha, you don't understand this place, do you? This is Xuan Du Fang City, the best free market in the Cultivation Realm. As long as you can afford it, almost anything can be bought here, even some precious refining materials." Tian Yi said with a smile.

  "Ah, Master, there's still over a month before the competition, can I go out and take a stroll, and also buy some materials?" Sun Mingdao said.

  "Heh heh, go ahead, go ahead. If it were anywhere else, I would never let you act alone, but in the market of Xuan Dou Star, everyone must respect the Holy Alliance's rules and not commit any violence here. Moreover, the Holy Alliance's patrol officers will be constantly patrolling this area, so you can rest assured." Tian Yi said.

  "Uh-huh, I see, elder."

  "When you're tired of strolling around, come find us at our sect's other courtyard in the northern part of the city." Tianyi said.

  Sun Ming responded and left alone afterwards.

  "Crossing the calamity, walking all over the ground, Mahayana is as common as dogs." Sun Ming walked and suddenly thought of this sentence in his heart. Looking at the cultivators coming and going, Sun Ming felt depressed. Suddenly, he found that there were so many high-level masters who were rarely seen on weekdays. Not only were the people walking on the road high-level masters, but even the shop owners were also high-level masters. Sun Ming casually walked into a Dan medicine shop and unexpectedly found an immortal. A sense of reverence arose spontaneously, which made the immortal look rather displeased. "Who is this young man from?" he said with a sneer. "A Golden Elixir cultivator coming to Xuan Du Star Market to buy things? How ridiculous." With that, he turned his sleeve and left, leaving Sun Ming's face red with shame...

  Under the shop owner's disdainful gaze, Sun Ming walked out of the store with a sullen expression, and couldn't help but scold himself: "You idiot, Sun Ming, you're an equipment refiner, what are you doing in a dan medicine store? Are you going to become a dan medicine refiner?"

  Sun Ming no longer wandered aimlessly, but instead began to look for stores that sold refining equipment materials. Finally, at the end of a street, Sun Ming saw a rather grand shop called Lingcai Pavilion.

  Sun Ming was very excited and just about to walk in when he was stopped by two gatekeepers at the entrance.

  "Scram, scram, scram! Are you here to waste our time? Even if you're in the Golden Elixir stage, you think you can come to our Spirit Treasure Pavilion to make a deal? We don't collect trash here. The things we sell are beyond your means." said Guardian A.

  "Let your senior come, unless you're an Alchemist, we won't let a Golden Dan period rookie like you in." The second gatekeeper didn't have the same arrogant attitude as the first one, but still looked down on Sun Ming, explaining briefly before ignoring him.

  "What are you still doing here? Want to go in and call your master's senior over." Seeing Sun Ming standing at the original place, guarding the door with a look of impatience.

  "Ah, giving you this, I believe with this maybe I can get in." Sun Ming took out the Lian Qi Shi Ling Pai from the Xumi Ring. Since he hadn't used it for a long time, Sun Ming had to search hard for it inside the ring and finally found it under the Jiao Long corpse, which was why he stood at the door for so long.

  "Five-star equipment master, please come in." The two gatekeepers immediately changed their expressions and bowed with a flattering attitude, making Sun Ming feel uncomfortable for a moment. It wasn't that these two were overly sycophantic, but rather that the cultivation world was short on equipment masters, and five-star or higher equipment masters had become important targets for various major powers to win over. That's why when Sun Ming took out the equipment master spirit card, they would be so flattering.

  Sun Ming also didn't hesitate and stepped into this spiritual material pavilion.

  It seems that there are no inferior materials here, and every shelf is neatly arranged, from ordinary Xuan Tie to Tai Yi Jin Jing, from green jade to warm jade. All the materials that Sun Ming can see in the sect's classics seem to be available here. However, the prices made Sun Ming jump, a fist-sized piece of Tai Yi Jin Jing actually costs over 100 top-grade crystal stones. Thinking about the Golden Dragon Sword and the Bundling Rope in his storage ring, Sun Ming felt another wave of heartache, thinking: "I'm really a spendthrift, these two treasures must have used up at least 10,000 top-grade crystal stones."

  As he wandered aimlessly, accompanied by the seemingly mocking gazes of the shop assistants, Sun Ming finally decided that there was nothing remarkable on the first floor and stepped up to the second floor. As soon as he reached the second floor, a stone on the shelf caught his attention, and even the Hongmeng Purple Fire within him stirred restlessly. Sun Ming ignored the precious materials on the second floor and walked directly to the stone, feeling an increasing sense of excitement from the Hongmeng Purple Fire within him as he drew closer. He knew that this stone must be a treasure. Looking down at the note on the shelf, he discovered that this stone was obtained by a wandering immortal during his interstellar travels. Initially, the immortal thought the stone had a strong spiritual energy and brought it back to the Zero Boundary Star, but all the alchemists believed it was just a hard stone with spiritual energy that couldn't be refined or even broken. Anything that loses its utility becomes worthless, but the wandering immortal was clever enough to put the stone in the Ling Material Pavilion for sale. However, whoever bought it would return it after some time, and the price had dropped from ten top-grade spirit stones to one. After all, the preciousness of top-grade spirit stones is well-known throughout the cultivation world, and this stone only had a slight connection with the immortal's scattered heart, making it harder than usual but not worth buying as a memento for such a high price. So, the stone remained on display here.

  Sun Ming struggled in his heart for a moment, and finally decided to buy it. After handing over the only top-grade spirit stone he had to the shop assistant, Sun Ming lost interest in lingering around here and walked out with his head down.

  "Where's that stone? It was just here a moment ago!" a female voice asked.

  "Sorry, it's just been bought by someone. That person just left a short while ago, you might still be able to catch up with him if you go out now. By the way, that guy is quite recognizable, a Golden Dan period rookie, haha, people from Xuan Dou Star in the Golden Dan period are rarely seen." The shop assistant had just finished speaking when the woman rushed out, and the shop assistant thought to himself: "What's going on? A stone with only some historical value that nobody usually pays attention to has become a treasure today?"

  Just as Sun Ming had walked out of the store, he heard a pleasant female voice behind him say, "Excuse me, sir, please wait a moment." Sun Ming turned around and was immediately stunned. The woman's beauty was like a startled swan, a swimming dragon, an autumn chrysanthemum, or a spring pine tree. She seemed to be surrounded by a halo of light, as if she were a cloud covering the moon or a gentle breeze blowing across the snow. From afar, she shone brightly like the morning sun rising over the horizon; up close, her beauty was dazzling, like a lotus flower emerging from the water. Her slender figure was perfectly proportioned, with shoulders that seemed to be carved and a waist as delicate as a willow branch. Her neck was long and elegant, her skin radiant and smooth, with a subtle fragrance that was beyond compare. Her hair was piled high on her head, her eyebrows were shaped like a crescent moon, her lips were red and inviting, and her teeth sparkled like jade. Her eyes shone brightly, her eyelashes curled upwards, and her whole demeanor was one of elegant refinement and quiet confidence. (The author didn't have a girlfriend and didn't know how to describe beautiful women, so he wrote it this way, haha!) It turned out that she was an extremely beautiful woman, a top-notch beauty.

  Hehe, who is this beauty? ?????

  What is that stone? ?????
