Chapter 212 Talisman Master and Alchemist Reach the 9th Rank! Luo Hongxi Alarms the Ancient City of
"It's alright, senior. Miaoling is free." Tu Miaoling smiled sweetly, knowing that Shen Yun was worried that she was eager to return home, so she spoke in a consultative tone.
'How thoughtful of you, senior~…' she thought to herself, raising an eyebrow in delight.
"Senior, Miaoling doesn't know where the Listening Spirit Mountain Range is. I'll go to the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion to find out."
"It's alright, let me do a simulation." Shen Yun said calmly as he opened the game map.
After entering the search information, he told Tu Miaoling the location:
"There seems to be an opportunity bestowed by Heaven there, but if Heaven detects it, the opportunity may disappear, so don't have too high hopes."
He was, after all, an expert, so naturally he had to make up some nonsense to fill in the gaps; otherwise, wouldn't it be embarrassing for Tu Miaoling to have made a wasted trip?
"Mmm!" Tu Miaoling nodded repeatedly, her heart pounding with alarm.
'Senior is once again wrestling with the will of Heaven!'
Previously, it plundered the origin of the Heavenly Dao to repair itself, and now it's actually deducing the opportunities of the Heavenly Dao. It's ridiculously strong!
"By the way, senior, Miaoling drew two goodwill talismans for you to take a look at." She then took out two talisman papers from her spatial ring:
[Eighth-Tier Mid-Grade Vajra Talisman: Inscribed with the essence blood of an eighth-tier peak demonic beast, the Vajra Ape. When applied to the body, it can dramatically increase strength; the effect is astonishing!]
[Ninth-Rank Low-Grade Teleportation Talisman: Increases speed dramatically after use; at full speed, one can rival an early-stage Emperor Realm cultivator. (Effect disappears when the talisman burns out)]
"Not bad, thank you for your hard work, Miaoling." Shen Yun smiled and accepted the two talismans.
'Great! Ninth-tier talisman in hand!'
It has to be said that Tu Miaoling's progress in talisman drawing is now incredibly fast!
As a player who only plays online, he will receive top-tier items in the future, which is a wonderful thing to think about.
Tu Miaoling smiled and said, "It's no trouble at all. I'm just glad I could help you, senior."
As long as her seniors can use her, she feels sweet inside no matter how hard it is.
"Okay, you fly first, I'll come over when we get there." Shen Yun switched to Luo Hongxi's screen.
She and a group of Sword Sect disciples, along with the sect leader and elders, disembarked from the flying boat and entered a city built of yellow earth.
【The Ancient City of Evil】!
"You actually ended up here?" Shen Yun raised an eyebrow.
The Ancient City of Evil is a city located on the border of the five major domains, specifically designed to defend against invasions by evil races from outside the domains.
For example, the Samsara Sword Manual that Luo Hongxi obtained before, whose master, the Samsara Sword Emperor, had once built such a city, led the Xuan Tian cultivators to fight bravely against the enemy, and finally perished tragically.
Between the five major domains of Xuantian, besides the boundless sea, there is a gap on the border of each domain.
And this gap is the entry point for the invasion of the extraterrestrial evil race!
Legend has it that the outer realms are an endless, desolate land with scarce resources, and the creatures that grow in such an environment are collectively known as the extraterrestrial evil race.
They will plunder all available resources in the surrounding area.
The powerful will even plunder the fortune of an entire realm, using the opportunity to prove their Dao!
The Xuan Tian Continent has suffered attacks from this race several times, but fortunately, thanks to the bravery of our predecessors, we have achieved our current prosperity instead of being devastated.
The existence of the Ancient City of Evil is precisely to stop the vanguard of the evil race from beyond the realm!
'Now that the tide has turned, are the evil races from beyond the realm starting to stir...' Shen Yun pondered to himself as he looked at Luo Hongxi, who was looking around.
Luo Hongxi's importance to the Sword Sect is self-evident; the fact that she was sent here for training already speaks volumes.
Beneath the ancient city of Yuxie.
A cultivator who was dozing against the earthen wall saw that it was someone from the Sword Sect and quickly stepped forward to bow.
"It's actually Sect Leader Li in person! Junior Ji Xiu greets all seniors!"
"Haha, young friend Ji, there's no need for such formalities." Sword Sect Master Li Mingdao stroked his beard and smiled.
"We have come here to send a few disciples for training."
'Experience? For Sect Master Li to come in person, could it be...?' Ji Xiu subconsciously glanced at the Sword Sect disciples and immediately noticed the leading female disciple, Luo Hongxi!
'It really is her?!' Ji Xiu hesitated for a moment before cupping his hands in a respectful gesture.
"Sect Leader Li, isn't this inappropriate? I remember that the Sword Sect didn't draw any lots."
The Ancient City of Evil is in great danger in order to defend against the extraterrestrial evil race at the breach.
Nobody wants to come here to die, so the five domains have an unwritten rule: draw lots!
Whichever faction draws the lot, whether it's a holy land, an ancient family, or a first-rate power, must send someone to guard the Evil Ancient City.
As for smaller forces below the first tier, they are not qualified; their presence would be of little use to those with low cultivation levels.
Normally, if a powerful force like the Sword Sect sent its disciples even though it didn't draw a lot, they would welcome it.
But the problem is, Luo Hongxi is here!
A peerless master of both alchemy and swordsmanship in the Eastern Region!
Her alchemy skills, in particular, were truly extraordinary.
I had heard before that Luo Hongxi had reached the level of an eighth-grade alchemist!
With qualifications like that, who wouldn't be confused?!
Such a prodigy has come here for training; who will be responsible if something goes wrong?!
Li Mingdao naturally understood his concerns and explained:
"This is the decision of Senior Dan Sheng and our sect's ancestor. Let her come here to refine pills and broaden her horizons. You just need to follow the rules."
Everyone in the Sword Sect knows that Luo Hongxi's future enemy is Ling Qingxue!
That's a tough opponent; he's now capable of crossing borders to kill a Buddhist disciple. He's practically born for battle.
The Pill Saint did not want to see Luo Hongxi perish on the path to enlightenment, which is why he sent Luo Hongxi to the Domain Evil Ancient City ahead of time, so that she could accumulate connections and merits here with her alchemy skills.
Even if they are defeated in the future, they will not die.
There is no best option, but consider it as planning ahead.
Of course, Dan Sheng only discussed this matter in private with Zong Heng and Li Mingdao, and would not tell Luo Hongxi these things, so as not to affect her mood.
"In that case, alright then." Ji Xiu nodded and led everyone to the City Lord's Mansion.
Upon entering the city, Luo Hongxi, Lu Feifeng, Chen Haotian, and the others discovered that the cultivators here, like Ji Xiu, looked somewhat unkempt and far less glamorous than the cultivators outside.
At first glance, one could see monks sitting on the ground with their eyes closed, or people sleeping soundly on the ground, looking quite carefree.
There was no other way; the extraterrestrial demon army frequently invaded, and someone might be dead tomorrow. The cultivators who came here were all carefree, doing whatever made them comfortable; who cared about such trivial matters?
"Oh?!" Many cultivators who were sitting by the roadside chatting and joking immediately perked up when they saw a newcomer enter:
"Haven't seen a newbie in ages! Which faction is this...?"
"The Eastern Sword Sect?! This is..." A perceptive cultivator quickly stood up, interrupting his companion's unrestrained conversation:
"This junior greets Sect Leader Li!"
'The Sword Sect Master?!' Everyone's hearts skipped a beat, and they all stood up.
"We have met Sect Leader Li!!"
"There's no need for that, everyone." Li Mingdao waved his hand with a smile. He had been stationed here before and was used to it.
The Sword Sect group slowly departed, while the cultivators on both sides of the street and the people in the shops all stared at them with curiosity.
"What is the Sword Sect Master doing here...?"
"They might need to see the city lord... Holy crap?! It's Luo Hongxi!"
When they saw Luo Hongxi looking around curiously in the group, everyone's expression changed:
'Why is she here instead of focusing on alchemy?!'
Luo Hongxi's most outstanding quality is not her combat prowess, but her talent for alchemy!
'Could she be here to refine pills?!' At this thought, everyone's eyes lit up.
'This time, a real gem has arrived!!'
Someone who will achieve at least the rank of Pill Saint in the future, coming here to refine pills?
If they can establish a good relationship with the other party, they will have another Dan Sheng friend in the future. How could they not be excited!
At this moment, many cultivators on the street stopped laughing at the newbie and instead nodded and smiled kindly at the Sword Sect disciple.
They are all fellow disciples of the future Pill Saint, so friends of friends are naturally one of us!
The exclamations did not make Luo Hongxi complacent. Her calm and composed demeanor made everyone feel that this woman had the air of a great lady!
But she was actually quite pleased with herself:
"How about it, young master? Aren't I amazing? People recognize me wherever I go!"
"Impressive, impressive." Shen Yun couldn't help but chuckle, then frowned slightly as he looked at the notification above her head: [Excessive Consumption of Double Pupil Origin].
'Hongxi, how come you've used up so much of your essence again? Didn't I tell you not to rush things?'
These words startled Luo Hongxi, making her heart pound.
Because the young master said last time that if she dared to squander money again, he would stab her head!
Feeling her cheeks getting warmer, she quickly used her spiritual energy to cool them down.
"Young Master, please let me explain. My divine soul had previously reached the eleventh rank, which greatly improved my alchemy abilities. Plus, I had just become a ninth-rank alchemist, and I was so engrossed in alchemy that I didn't stop for a while... and that's how it happened..."
However, it's a fact that her double pupils are depleted, which also means that the young master will be coming to help her recover soon. Just thinking about it makes me a little shy.
