"Brother, I have a Haoyuan Pill. Although it is only of middle grade, I think it should be enough with my junior sister's qualifications and foundation, right?" Zhao Shuangying said with a smile.
Haoyuan Dan is a spiritual elixir for monks in the Dan-formation stage to break through bottlenecks and improve their cultivation. It is most suitable to be used on the third level of Golden Elixir, in the middle stage of impact.
This elixir is not particularly difficult to refine. With the ability of Dai Chenghong of the elixir academy, I dare not say that it is a high-grade one, but it can definitely be refined into a middle-grade elixir. It's just that in today's Zhenyu world, some spiritual herbs and elixirs are hard to find. This Haoyuan Pill also contains the main medicine Haoyuan Grass, which the entire Yunxiao Sect does not have in stock.
Therefore, when Tan Mingzhen heard the news about this elixir, he could hardly believe his ears.
"Enough, enough," she said excitedly as if she was moaning, "I wonder, senior brother, if it's possible to sell this elixir to me? I will collect it as soon as I accept it, and let senior brother choose it, and I will never refuse!"
Zhao Shuangying smiled reservedly and shook his head.
"Junior sister Mingzhen," he said with a sincere face, "I am practicing a technique for my brother, and I need a woman with a particularly strong water aura as a cauldron. This..."
"Senior brother, I have been searching for ten years. Even those with water-type single spiritual roots and the aura of water spiritual energy on their bodies are not as good as your disciple. I wonder if..."
He glanced at Zixue, and there was no need to say more about what he meant.
Tan Mingzhen followed his gaze and suddenly understood.
But she had never seen this female disciple before. Judging from her attire and position, she should be a female cultivator from Wushan County Temple under Chongyun Palace.
If you are a disciple of the Demon Suppression Hall, even a confidant like Huang Chenyin is not untradeable for the sake of your own path.
But this one...
Let’s first take a look at what it comes from.
"What's your name?" She walked up to Zixue and asked.
"Mu Zixue." Zixue lowered her eyebrows, unable to see the expression on her face.
Tan Mingzhen looked at it carefully and was greatly surprised. She had always been proud of her beauty, but when faced with this female disciple, she actually felt ashamed of herself.
There are such gorgeous and exquisite people in the world!
Could it be that Zhao Shuangying fell in love with her beauty?
Maybe, it's just, what does this have to do with me?
"Take out your identity token and let me take a look."
Without saying a word, Zixue took off the token from her waist and handed it over.
"Fourth level of foundation building, one hundred and thirty years old, water and wood spiritual roots, from Jintian County, Qingzhou..." Tan Mingzhen looked at it carefully and secretly felt relieved.
At this age, this level of cultivation, and this qualification, I can only say that it is pretty good, but it cannot be said to be excellent.
The Yunxiao Sect has not only one thousand, but also eight hundred such female disciples.
Also, Qingzhou Jintian County, I haven’t heard of any powerful immortal cultivating families in that place.
This female disciple may have some connection with Dou Xichang, but it shouldn't be too deep. Otherwise, why would the good Wushan County Guanzhu be handed over to a little girl with a second-level foundation building instead of leaving it to her who is more qualified at her age?
At worst, say hello to Dou Xichang afterwards.
Thinking of this, she made up her mind.
"Very good," Tan Mingzhen said to Zixue with a spring breeze on his face: "You must have heard just now that Zhao Guo, the master, is interested in finding a water attribute Taoist companion to practice dual cultivation. I think this is also your destiny, otherwise I will At your age and level of cultivation, you may not have the chance to break through the Zi Mansion in this life."
"Zhao Zhenren has extraordinary standards and grace. He will never treat you badly. I will also give you a dowry. You should go with him now!"
"Is there anyone else in your hometown? I will ask someone to take care of them." She finally asked with a concerned look on her face.
The opportunity has arrived, and she can't wait to make a deal with Zhao Shuangying immediately, for fear that something will go wrong.
Zixue's face was expressionless, she raised her head and looked at Tan Mingzhen, and gradually, a hint of ridicule appeared in the corner of her mouth.
"Since you think he's good, go ahead yourself!" She grabbed the token, turned around and left.
Tan Mingzhen was shocked.
How many years has it been since no disciple dared to speak to her like this?
She was the one who said the same thing in the Demon Suppression Hall. How long had it been since she had seen such a rebellious subordinate?
She was stunned for a moment, thinking that she heard wrongly, so that Zixue took the token from her hand, but she didn't even react.
She finally woke up and immediately became furious!
A pretty face, twisted with anger, looking extremely ferocious!
"Stop!" she shouted angrily.
Zixue turned a deaf ear and continued to move forward.
"Presumptuous!" Tan Mingzhen opened his hand, turned into a giant palm, and grabbed the woman's back in the distance.
This is the transformation of spiritual energy. The monk uses the spiritual energy overflowing in his body to combine with his own flesh and blood, turning reality into emptiness. There is reality in the emptiness, so that he can attack as far forward as possible to restrain his opponent.
It is equivalent to Jindan Zhenren fighting you in close combat, making it impossible for you to avoid it.
In an instant, the giant palm reached Zixue's back.
Yang Zhen's eyes were filled with fire, and she didn't consider her low cultivation level. She clenched her fists tightly and stepped forward like a bow.
His body just leaned forward slightly, and it seemed as if he was already in the midst of a huge wave. The violent pressure prevented him from moving at all.
How can a small foundation building shake the power of a real person?
He is already like this on the edge, what about Zixue who is at the forefront of the waves?
Soon enough, when the giant palm was about to touch her body, a dazzling blue light suddenly lit up. Immediately, the air around him suddenly became colder, and a crystal clear ice wall suddenly appeared.
The giant palm hit the ice wall with a bang, causing the wall to shake slightly.
Then, Tan Mingzhen was shocked to find that his palm was frozen by the cold air and he couldn't take it back!
She was shocked in her heart, all her energy was concentrated on her right arm, and her palm suddenly shrank.
"Tsk-", it was like a salted fish that was burnt on the iron plate, with a piece of fish skin being torn off.
Looking up, the skin on the palm of his hand peeled off and dripped with blood, revealing the flesh and blood inside.
Tan Mingzhen was shocked and angry. He looked at the ice wall and murmured: "Frost ice wall, fourth-level talisman..."
Zhao Shuangying and Ji Qiankun on the side were both shocked, thinking in their hearts, if they were in their place, this ice wall would...
I'm afraid it can't be broken with one move. If it doesn't work well, it will end up like Tan Mingzhen.
This is at least a fourth-level high-grade talisman.
Who does this have to be to have such a treasure to protect him?
The two of them looked at the woman who was walking away without looking back, frowning and secretly guessing her identity.
Zhao Shuangying showed a hint of unwillingness in his eyes, staring closely at the woman's graceful figure, his eyes flashing...
…
Tan Mingzhen was stunned.
She couldn't even imagine how a fourth-level talisman could exist on a foundation-building disciple whose information was mediocre.
This identity is by no means simple!
Could it be that someone from the Supreme Ancestor?
Relatives? disciple? Hidden stakes? Friendship for the New Year?
For a time, she thought about countless possibilities in her mind, and finally they merged into one——
I hit the iron plate.
Thinking that she had unintentionally let a talisman that her ancestor had worked hard on go to waste, she felt regretful and afraid at the same time.
You won't send me to Hanzhou to replace Yinluxiang, right?
Her family knows her own affairs, and among the Golden Pills of the Yunxiao Sect, her strength is on the lower side, and she is far from the opponent of Yin Luxiang, Shuihong and others.
It took less than a hundred years to achieve the golden elixir, and the foundation is not as good as others.
Otherwise, why would she give Zhao Yue'er a gift for nothing? She just heard that this was an inner disciple whom Master Shuihong loved very much, so she wanted to show her goodwill.
If she went to Hanzhou, she might not be as comfortable as Yin Luxiang.
If one person is not good enough, he or she may die.
At this time, she had already forgotten about the Haoyuan Dan. Compared with her wealth and life, what does it mean to be temporarily blocked in her path?
Tan Mingzhen's face turned pale and he no longer had any interest in talking to the two real people. Seeing that he had reached the end of the line, he hurriedly said no and left in a hurry.
…
After the welcome ceremony ended, all the disciples dispersed, leaving only Huangfu Lansheng and others to stay where they were and continue to receive the guests.
Yang Zhen and Zhao Yue'er looked at each other and saw the worry in each other's eyes. They took a leave of absence from Palace Master Huangfu and headed towards Zixue's residence.
When he came to the door, he saw Huang Chenyin coming out. When he saw the two of them, he nodded and left.
"Sister Zixue——" Zhao Yue'er rushed into the house and saw Zixue sitting on an armchair, looking like she was lost in thought. She couldn't help but apologize:
"It's all Yue'er's fault. If Yue'er hadn't pulled you here, what happened today wouldn't have happened."
Zixue touched the girl's hair and forced a smile: "Everything has a cause and effect, and it has nothing to do with you."
Even so, there was still a gloomy look on his face.
"Sister, how about—" Zhao Yue'er's eyes rolled around, trying to find a way to make her happy: "How about I try the method you mentioned with Xiao Shitou tonight."
After saying that, she covered her face, feeling ashamed at first. She secretly saw a smile on the corner of the man's mouth and glared at him with a threatening expression.
"Puch!" Zixue was amused by her and couldn't help laughing. With this smile, all the worries on his face disappeared, like a rainbow after the rain, beautiful and indescribable.
"There are Jindan and Zifu everywhere here," she poked the little girl's forehead: "You two, don't run around. Put that set of skills away first. It's best not to be seen."
"Who, who ran away?" Zhao Yue'er's face turned red and she said, "I, we..."
After she hesitated for a long time, she found that the two people in the room were laughing even harder, so she couldn't help but kick Yang Zhen:
"It's all you, a bad guy, and you still dare to laugh at me!"
After a while of fussing, and seeing that Zixue's emotions had completely calmed down, the little girl asked: "Sister, Master Huang just came to you, wasn't it to help her master and continue to make shameless requests?"
"No," Zixue shook her head: "She came to apologize on behalf of her master, and also said she would compensate me for the loss of my talisman."
Speaking of Fu Bao, Yang Zhen sighed and felt a pity.
A talisman can only store up to three spells, including killing the tiger demon, capturing Qingzhuo, and this time today. He has witnessed with his own eyes that the protective talisman must no longer be able to function.
The first two times were okay, but today's incident could have been completely avoided if Master Tan hadn't made his own decision.
This is a treasure that can save lives at critical times!
It's no wonder that Zixue is in a bad mood. If it were him, he would be even more angry.
"How much was the compensation?" Zhao Yuer asked curiously.
"Forty Spirits, but," a strange smile appeared on Zixue's face: "Huang Chenyin wanted me to declare it to the outside world as forty-five, and she wanted the other five."
"This..." Zhao Yueer was stunned.
Yang Zhen smiled and shook her head, not surprised. In his previous life, he was in sales, and this kind of thing was not uncommon.
There was one thing that he had been holding back in his mind for a long time, and today was an opportunity to ask about it.
"Senior Sister Zixue, ten years ago, Yue'er and I traveled to Qingzhou..."
He recounted how he went to Qingzhou with Zhao Beiqing that year to manifest his spiritual roots, and later even bid for the Yuanling water fetus. On the way, he encountered a monk from Sangzhou who robbed him of his way, and was finally rescued by a mysterious female cultivator.
As he was narrating, Zhao Yue'er looked at him strangely with her beautiful eyes, her face gradually becoming thoughtful.
Finally, Yang Zhen asked the question that she had been thinking about for a long time:
"Sister Zixue, do you know that mysterious senior?"
"Why do you think I will know that expert?" Zixue looked at the young man with a smile on his face.
Yang Zhen pondered for a moment, then simply stated her doubts one by one:
"Senior sister's talisman is at least from the hands of the peak golden elixir, or even Nascent Soul, so junior brother guesses that there should be an expert behind senior sister..."
"Yue'er said that you once said that you could help her come to Wushan County in advance. Later, you did it, and you also gave her a position as a temple master that is almost unbelievable to ordinary people. Junior Brother believes that even Master Shuihong may not be able to do it. To be able to make Palace Master Dou make such an exception, unless there is another expert..."
"Two years ago in Panxi Mountain, after senior sister killed the demon tiger, just over two quarters of an hour later, the ancestor of Xiling appeared in time. Junior brother was very surprised. What kind of identity did senior sister have to enable our ancestor to transcend several decades? State, come to help..."
"besides……"
"That's enough!" Zixue suddenly stopped.
Yang Zhen was startled and did not dare to say anything. She looked up at Zixue, but saw that there was no anger on her face, she was just looking at him blankly.
Zhao Yue'er came over quietly, stretched out her catkins to hold the boy, looked at Zixue, and called softly: "Senior sister..."
After a long time, Zixue sighed: "Junior Brother Yang, everyone has their own secrets."
"Yes." Yang Zhen whispered: "Junior brother, it was a whim. If there is any offense, please forgive me, senior sister. I will never inquire again in the future."
"That's not necessary," Zixue waved her hand to stop her, as if she had made up her mind, and said word by word: "The female cultivator you are talking about is my sister."
"Sister?" Zhao Yueer opened her lips slightly, with a curious look on her face: "Are you my sister?"
"Um."
"Is she as old as you?"
"Bigger than me."
"What kind of cultivation level does she have?" The little girl's voice trembled.
Zixue didn't seem to care about her repeated questions and replied: "Nascent Soul... the early stage."
"Oh my God!" Zhao Yue'er covered her mouth and couldn't believe it: "The ancestor of Yuanying who is more than a hundred years old!"
Obviously, she knows the information about Zixue's identity token.
But Yang Zhen was full of doubts, and there was a big question mark in her mind:
The probability of a pair of parents giving birth to two children with the qualifications to cultivate immortality, well, I can’t say it’s impossible, but it’s certainly rare.
And of these two children, one is a Nascent Soul who is over a hundred years old. This qualification is absolutely unparalleled. The other one, Shuanglinggen, is over a hundred years old and has excellent qualifications.
What kind of family does this have to be to be so favored by God?
