Alchemy Dao Immortal

Chapter 485: The Cause and Effect of the Star Palace Chance Master
When Zhou Qing heard this, he couldn't help but sit up straight, a look of joy on his face. The mysterious light behind him moved with his mood, shining like a precious cloud, clear and translucent. He held his breath, looked up, and waited for the answer.

"this,"

The great monk Cai Jiuyuan rolled his eyes and had some vague guesses in his mind. If this was true, then Zhou Qing was really lucky.

Master Guande smiled gently, revealed the answer, and said, "Go to Yushu Star Palace."

"Yushu Star Palace."

A dazzling light burst out from Zhou Qing's eyes.

The Jade Pivot Star Palace holds a special status in the sect. It is the fundamental and important place of the Zhenyi Sect, the upper mysterious sect.

It is located at the center of the sect's formation, and is cleansed by the supreme mysterious opportunity day and night. This advantage is much greater than that of ordinary caves, and the benefits of practicing in it are too numerous to be described in a few words.

However, the Yushu Star Palace has its own rules. Only the sect's head master, hall masters and supreme elders can meditate there.

From what Master said, could it be that he had opened a way for me to have the opportunity to practice in Yushu Xing Palace? That would be a great opportunity.

Master Guande pointed with his hand, and a ray of bronze light emerged from his sleeve. It shot down like lightning and arrived in front of Zhou Qing. After making a circle, it turned into a bronze vessel.

It is shaped like a treasure pot, but has no lid. The wide opening is folded outward and cast with tiny stars. When people look at it, colorful starlight will be cast into the pot, forming indescribable horizontal lines.

Holding it in the hand, the bronze pot emits bursts of clear sounds, but it gives people a sense of unreality, as if it is not a real object.

"This is your certificate for entering the Jade Pivot Star Palace to practice."

Master Guande's eyes were filled with a layer of jade-like color, clear and untainted by dust. Seeing his disciples looking at it, he continued, "Put it away carefully. When you are ready, you can take it to Yushu Star Palace."

"Thank you, Master."

Zhou Qing put away the treasure pot, stood up again, and bowed solemnly.

There is only one way to go to Yushu Xing Palace for cultivation, and that is to get the permission of the headmaster. And it is extremely difficult for the Dongtian Master in the sect to get the headmaster of the sect to agree.

Although he didn't know the specific reasons, he was certain that his master, Guan De Zhenren, must have put in a lot of effort.

“It’s also your luck.”

Master Guande had a calm expression on his face and seemed to be in a good mood. He spoke to Zhou Qing for a few more words before sending him away.

"Real person."

Seeing Zhou Qing's back disappear at the entrance of the hall, Cai Jiuyuan looked towards Master Guande on the throne above, seeming to want to say something but stopping himself.

Master Guande's eyes moved, knowing that Cai Jiuyuan might be thinking of what he had done. He waved the jade ruyi in his hand, and smoke clouded his expression. He replied, "It's neither too big nor too small, just right for my last disciple."

The matter was done, and Cai Jiuyuan said no more, although he thought it would be better to leave this opportunity to the direct descendants of Master Guande.

After this matter came to an end, Master Guande raised his eyebrows, and the seven-colored lights on his forehead shone brightly, illuminating the surroundings. He said, "Jiuyuan, while my broken body can still hold on for a while, you should prepare to go out for a walk."

When he said this, the voice of this Dongtian Zhenren was full of solemnity, seriousness, and the heaviness of a mountain.

This time I go out not to travel, but to do things, difficult things.

"I see."

Cai Jiuyuan had anticipated this.

If Zhou Qing, who just left, had reached this level of cultivation, he would be perfect and flawless. He only needed to stay in the sect and continue to accumulate. Once the secrets of heaven were clear, he could impact the cave heaven realm. The other party had a top family like Luochuan Zhou behind him. The family was fully committed and had its own resources.

In comparison, although he had the support of Changling Miaozhen Yudao Dongtian and Yuanzhong Cai family, and even because of Zhenren Guande, he had won the support of some Luochuan Zhou family, but it was still not enough. If he wanted to be safe, he had to win the support of the sect.

Where does the support from within the sect come from? It's nothing more than doing something meritorious.

However, since it was related to the future of the cave, he had to make amazing achievements. To make such achievements, it would be very difficult and full of dangers. Even a person like him could fall if he was not careful.

"Look out for yourself."

Zhenren Guande held the jade ruyi in his hand, with a faint light in his eyes. Compared with others, if his clansman Cai Jiuyuan went out, he might face a worse situation.

He had suffered a calamity, his Dharma body was damaged, and his life span was almost over. As long as Cai Jiuyuan could not come to the rescue, the Cai family in Yuanzhong would be blown to the wind and rain.

Once the Yuanzhong Cai family is gone, the benefits left by such a noble family will be enough to feed many forces. Because of this, there will definitely be people who plot against Cai Jiuyuan openly or secretly.

At the same time, Zhou Qing, who had already left the hall, felt refreshed. He looked up at the sky, listened to the calls of birds flying across the sky, the spiritual energy in front of him rolled, and he rode his horse at a gallop.

When a cultivator reaches the third level of Hepo, he needs to absorb a large amount of essence from heaven and earth to nourish his golden elixir and accumulate the strength needed to reach the Nascent Soul stage. If he does not absorb enough essence from heaven and earth, he will not be able to break through his golden elixir and condense his Nascent Soul.

For a general soul-integration third level, it usually takes decades of hard work to accumulate enough power, and then the elixir breaks through and the Nascent Soul emerges. However, Zhou Qing not only practices the three methods at the same time, but also has a rare first-grade golden elixir. The power condensed from the essence of heaven and earth required is probably dozens of times that of an ordinary cultivator. How much!

Even if he obtained a spiritual treasure from his clan to assist in his cultivation, or even cultivated in the cave opened up by the real person of the cave, it would still be difficult to achieve perfect fusion of souls. But now that he had the opportunity to cultivate in the Jade Pivot Star Palace, the difficulty was easily solved.

Just then, a new leaf was blown down from the tree by the wind. It circled around Zhou Qing and slowly fell to the ground, exuding a touch of vitality. Zhou Qing was in a good mood. He laughed loudly again, rose from the ground, left the cave, and headed for the clan’s Danyang Continent to meet another cave immortal.

Inside the Zhen Gu Ming Xiu Guang Hua Cave Heaven, there were waves of colorful clouds, auspicious smoke, and moss on the mountain walls. The rain from last night was still going on. Outside the window, new bamboos were standing on poles, and clear smoke was swaying on the leaves. Fairy birds and spirit animals were mixed in, and the scene was full of vitality.

Being in it, Zhou Qing could clearly sense the lively power, thriving, this was not because of the atmosphere in the cave, but from the origin of the cave, which was not comparable to the Changling Miaozhen Yudao Cave. Realizing this, a trace of imperceptible haze flashed across Zhou Qing's face.

He was now in high spirits, making rapid progress and having no disadvantages. On the one hand, it was because he was indeed extremely talented and had surpassed all other competitors. On the other hand, it was also because he had the support of the two major forces, Luochuan Zhou family and Changling Miaozhen Yudao Dongtian.

However, his master, Master Guande, has not much time left. Once he reincarnates and passes away, the support from Changling Miaozhen Yudao Dongtian will definitely not be as strong as it is now.

Therefore, he must seize the time and strive to improve his realm and status while his master, Master Guan De, is still alive.

After walking for a while, Zhou Qing came to the main hall on the mountain deep in the cave, and saw a middle-aged man waiting. He was thin, with a pale golden face, and a cloud on his head. Above that, he held up an incense burner that was neither too big nor too small. Every time it turned, countless stars were reflected from it.

Seeing the Nascent Soul cultivator at the door, Zhou Qing greeted him and said, "Master Fan."

"Young Master Qing is here." The chief steward under Tianming Zhenren saw Zhou Qing and smiled, without any of his usual sternness. He said, "The master is waiting in the hall. Let's go in."

"Thank you, Master Fan."

Zhou Qing said politely. The butler in front of him was greeting him at the door because his status in the clan and the sect was becoming more and more prominent, and he was highly regarded by Taoist Tianming. The fancy sedan was carried by everyone, so if the other party was polite, he had to be polite as well.

Master Fan saw this and nodded secretly. It was no fluke that Zhou Qing could rise in the clan and the sect. The fact that he remained calm in the face of praise or criticism was something that not everyone could possess.

As they were talking, they went inside and saw Zhenren Tianming sitting upright on a glazed pagoda. There were tiny fragments of light all around him, flying back and forth like a fluttering little crane, perching on an old pine tree and jumping around. He saw Zhou Qing come in and nodded.

"Master." Zhou Qing stood still below and said directly, "I will go to Yushu Star Palace to practice for a while, extract the essence of heaven and earth, and accumulate strength to impact the Nascent Soul Realm. Is there any suitable spiritual treasure in the clan that I can use?"

"Yushu Xinggong?" When Tianming Zhenren heard these four words, he was shocked. He hesitated for a moment and said, "Is this the opportunity that Daoist Guande fought for you?"

This sounds like a question, but it is actually very affirmative.

"Yes."

Zhou Qing agreed and recounted what happened in the Miaozhen Yudao Cave in Changling.

"Daoist Guande." After listening to this, Tianming Zhenren's mood changed. The light around him was dyed with clusters of star colors, becoming brighter and purer. He said, "He really cares about you, his last disciple."

Others didn't know, but he knew that before the current headmaster had attained enlightenment, Zhou Qing's master, Guande Zhenren, had helped him. The help was not very big, but the headmaster of Zhenyi Sect was such a person that he must remember a favor from Guande Zhenren.

Master Guande had been holding on to this favor, which was neither big nor small. He never expected that it would be used on Zhou Qing in the end.

All the thoughts flashed through his mind, and Tianming Zhenren sat up straight, with a dense cloud on his head, and after a moment of thought, he said, "Daoyou Guande has fought for this rare opportunity for you, you must seize it well."

Being able to practice in the Yushu Star Palace for a period of time is not only a way to accumulate strength, but there are also mysteries in it, and there will definitely be other gains.

If it weren't for Master Guande's efforts, Zhou Qing would not have had such an opportunity even if he had taken another step forward.

Zhou Qing nodded vigorously and said loudly: "Disciple knows."

"As for the magic weapon you need." Zhenren Tianming was well prepared for this. He waved his hand and a ray of clear light flew in from outside. It arrived in the hall, shook left and right, and turned into a small three-legged tripod. On one side was auspicious stars and on the other side were flying patterns and horizontal scrolls. Circles of residual halo were surging on it, back and forth.

Seeing Zhou Qing looking him up and down, Tian Ming Zhenren said: "This treasure is the Lianzhen Jade Cauldron, which can extract the best essence of heaven and earth. Not to mention you now, even if you reach the Nascent Soul stage, the essence of heaven and earth extracted from the cauldron can also help you practice."

"But this magic weapon is of the real weapon level, and the magic weapon's true spirit has an erratic temperament. If you want her to help you wholeheartedly, you have to think of a way yourself."

"Real weapon."

Zhou Qing took a look and before he could say anything, he saw a circle of precious energy flying out from the edge of the small tripod floating in the air, and then a girl with green hair and red skirt appeared on it.

She was combing her long black hair that hung on one side of her head. In the sunlight, her skin looked white, as bright as snow and white as a flower. She was extremely beautiful.

When Tianming Zhenren saw him coming out, he sat upright on the pagoda, with a ray of light in his eyes, and said: "Yuan Qinghua, my junior needs to impact the Nascent Soul realm, so you should stay by his side during this time and lend him a helping hand."

The spirit girl swung back and forth on the small tripod, her eyes swept across Tianming Zhenren and Zhou Qing, and finally landed on Zhou Qing. She said in a pleasant but impolite tone: "He is a kid at the Hepo realm. The disciples of your Luochuan Zhou family are really getting worse with each generation."

In the past, whenever she showed up, the worst she could do was to help the Luochuan Zhou disciples at the Nascent Soul stage to cultivate and help them extract the best essence of heaven and earth. Even so, she sometimes felt impatient, not to mention that this was a Hepo cultivator in front of her?
If she had not been receiving offerings from the Luochuan Zhou family for all these years, and had not known that Tianming Zhenren, the Dongtian Zhenren in this temple, was not someone to be trifled with, she would have returned to the cauldron and continued to sleep long ago.

After hearing the words of the spirit of the real artifact, Tianming Zhenren did not say anything else. Instead, he transmitted the details of the Lianzhen Jade Cauldron to Zhou Qing and asked him to solve it himself. After all, this real artifact was what Zhou Qing wanted to use.

"Lianzhen Jade Cauldron."

Zhou Qing looked at the girl, his gaze fixed on her pair of green eyes. He was not angry at her tone.

When the spirit of a mysterious magical weapon grows to an astonishing degree, it will transform into a human being and be promoted to a true weapon. This process is just like a cultivator breaking through from the Nascent Soul Realm to the Cave Heaven Realm.

Although most of the real artifacts have the limitations of the magic weapon itself, and it is impossible for them to observe the sun and the moon, understand the laws of nature, and have great power in every move like the real person of Dongtian, their body is solid and their lifespan is incredibly longer.

Their personalities are also varied. Although there are some gentle ones, they are not many. The vast majority of weapon spirits, unless they are in the hands of their first master, generally fear power rather than virtue.

Although the spirit of the jade tripod in front of you looks slender and quiet, like a lady from a noble family, it is no easy task.

To use this jade tripod to help me practice, I must show my strength. Otherwise, even if the opponent is hindered by Tianming Zhenren's power, he will not work hard. Zhou Qing's thoughts turned quickly. He thought about the details of this tripod introduced by Tianming Zhenren, and had an idea, saying: "I heard from Zhenren that you are good at collecting the essence of heaven and earth, whether it is outside the nine heavens, deep underground, or in the spirit cave, you can collect it. The amount of essence of heaven and earth you have seen and the variety of essence of heaven and earth you have stored are so many that even Dongtian Zhenren can't compare to it?"

"Of course." The spirit girl swung her legs, her skirt swaying like a big butterfly, and raised her chin, saying, "I have seen more essences of heaven and earth than you have eaten salt."

"Really?" Zhou Qing didn't care about the other party's ridicule. His eyes flashed, and he pointed a finger. A beam of light shot out and shot towards the other party. He said, "This is a kind of essence of heaven and earth that I got by chance outside. Do you have any?"
