Lingyuan Immortal

Chapter 168 Humanity and Sophistication
The bell rang, and as if affected by it, the falling snow slowly stopped, and the thick clouds quietly dissipated, revealing a warm and not dazzling light golden sunlight.

"Look."

When everyone saw this scene, they knew that it was the Foundation Establishment cultivator who intervened, and they all looked towards the direction of the hall.

At this time, the Qingmu spirit table in the main hall was already filled with envoys from various sects.

The head of Shuiyunjian sat at the top seat, smiling and nodding frequently towards the people below.

"Fellow Daoists, you are guests from afar. If our sect has been inadequate in our hospitality, please forgive us."

As soon as these words came out, most of the people in the audience waved their hands and laughed, "Master Qin, we are from the same sect as the Zhao State, so don't be so polite."

Only one person had a blank expression on his face. He just bowed slightly when he heard the words and said nothing.

Judging from the golden robe he was wearing, he was a monk from the Golden Light Valley, the enemy of Shuiyunjian.

It was so special that Sect Leader Qin naturally noticed something was wrong, but he did not get annoyed. Instead, he smiled and ignored it.

Xin Cang and the others exchanged glances upon seeing this. Bewilderment welled up in their hearts at the Foundation Establishment cultivator who had come from the Golden Light Valley. They wondered, "What was the Golden Light Valley thinking? Why did they send him here?"

Of the five sects’ envoys, four were Foundation Establishment cultivators during the time of the demonic plague, and only the one from the Golden Light Valley had a replacement.

He had thick eyebrows, broad eyes, a stern face, and an indifferent expression that was slightly yellowed by the golden robe he wore. Combined with his sharp aura, he looked extremely heroic.

Jin Ye Tian...

The Grand Elder of Jin Guang Valley was in the middle stage of foundation building, and his cultivation was second only to the Sect Leader of Jin Guang Valley. What puzzled everyone the most was that Jin Yetian was very hostile to Shui Yunjian, and often provoked trouble, causing fights between the two sects.

In such an occasion, why did Jin Guanggu still send him here...

Everyone frowned and thought secretly, but before long, their thoughts were interrupted by the changes in the scene.

As the bell sound faded away, a figure slowly walked over from a distance and crossed the square in front of the palace.

"This is the newly promoted Foundation Establishment Senior from Shuiyunjian, right?"

"The Foundation Establishment Realm is indeed powerful. Just some overflowing spiritual energy fluctuations have brought such great pressure to us..."

The disciples of various sects in the square had different expressions and were whispering to each other as they looked at Zhou Weiqian.

Zhou Weiqian ignored him and went straight into the hall.

"Shuiyunjian Zhou Weiqian, I pay my respects to the Sect Master.

"Yes." Sect Leader Qin nodded and smiled, then gestured for him to greet the envoys from various sects.

After he paid his respects, Sect Leader Qin stood up, moved his feet lightly, and walked in front of him in an instant.

"Follow me."

After uttering these words, Sect Leader Qin continued to walk towards the front of the hall.

Zhou Weiqian also knew that this was part of the ceremonial process, so he didn't say much and followed silently.

After arriving at the main hall, Sect Master Qin glanced around and said loudly, "In the 13,729th year of the Dao calendar, the Xiuxian Sect Shuiyunjian has gained another foundation-building disciple. I would like to express my consolation to our Master Shuiyun that the sect's inheritance has not been broken..."

The clear voice echoed in everyone's ears, narrating the glorious history of Shuiyunjian.

I don’t know what others thought after hearing this, but Chen Mu felt a sense of emotion in his heart.

"After thousands of years, even a Foundation Establishment cultivator can now comfort the ancestor. This is really a decline..."

After a while, Sect Leader Qin slowly stopped, looked at Zhou Weiqian and nodded.

Zhou Weiqian received the signal and immediately used his magic power to summon a ray of emerald green spiritual light, which flew away rapidly. Judging from its direction, it was heading towards the Zhao Wen Bell.

Along the way, the spiritual light became more and more astonishing, and in the end, it had already burst into a sky full of green. "Ding!"

A loud bang sounded, reaching the sky and lingering for a long time.

"Hahaha...Xiao Jingyuan of Wenjian Pavilion congratulates Shuiyunjian on the addition of another fellow cultivator!" Xiao Jingyuan laughed heartily, then stood up. Something suddenly appeared in his hand. "This is a gift specially sent by the Sect Leader. It's a Bisang fruit!"

Green mulberry fruit!
Those disciples who had heard of this fruit were all shocked, with envy showing on their faces.

Even the foundation-building cultivators like Xin Cang were startled and marveled at the generosity of the Sword-Asking Sect.

This is because the Bisang fruit is not only an extremely rare second-level spiritual material that bears fruit only once every nine hundred years, but it is also something that all cultivators who build the foundation of the Wood Road desire.

After taking this fruit, the constructed wooden foundation can be purified again, and the magic power that has reached its limit can be increased a little more.

This alone is extremely tempting.

Although the effect of this fruit is limited and can only be consumed once in a lifetime, it does have the potential to further enhance one's potential...

"Wenjian Pavilion is really thoughtful."

Sect Leader Qin smiled continuously, nodded repeatedly, and quickly signaled Zhou Weiqian to accept it.

It has to be said that Sect Leader Qin is truly devoted to his master and does not even harbor a trace of greed.

"With such generosity from the Sword-Asking Pavilion, I, Zifenglin, cannot be left behind... Liu Cheng from Zifenglin, brought a piece of green vine wood for Fellow Daoist Zhou!"

Liu Cheng raised the object in his hand, which was a green vine wrapped around a tree. The strange thing was that both the vine and the spiritual tree had been rooted out, but they were still full of vitality. If you looked closely, you could see that they were still growing in the smallest details.

The green vine spiritual wood is also a second-level spiritual material, but it is not used for eating. Instead, it is used as the main material to create a spiritual weapon.

Liu Cheng said with a proud smile, "Fellow Daoist Zhou has only recently advanced, so he certainly doesn't have a suitable spiritual weapon. I wonder if this piece of spiritual wood would suit your taste?"

Zhou Weiqian was of course satisfied, and now he couldn't wait to find a skilled weapon refiner so that his spiritual weapon could come into the world.

So he immediately thanked her and said, "Thank you so much for your kindness!"

Liu Cheng laughed and retreated, and another person came forward.

After a long time, the Beast Taming Sect and Yuehua Mountain also sent gifts one after another, all of which were specially selected for Zhou Weiqian.

This is the advantage of being a cultivator in a sect. After breaking through the realm, there is no need to seek opportunities everywhere like those independent cultivators, which greatly wastes time and energy.

Things like what Zhou Weiqian received today, those casual cultivators might not be able to collect them all even if they spent several years.

Of course, this is not something that can be obtained casually. When there is such a happy event in his sect, Shuiyunjian will also prepare gifts.

There is a give and take, it's just the way things are...

The disciples who saw the treasures being taken out one after another were already a little dazed.

Things that we couldn’t even think about in the past can now be sent out in just a few words.

It really makes everyone wish they could take his place!
After a while, they regained their composure and looked at the last person. He was the only one who had not yet taken out the gift.

Golden Light Valley, Golden Leaf Sky...

"Fellow Daoist Jin, what's wrong? Are you not prepared?"

Among the six sects, only Zifenglin and Jinguan Valley have a close relationship, so now Liu Cheng chuckled and reminded Jin Yetian not to be impolite in front of his fellow practitioners from the State of Zhao.

If it were the previous Mr. E, after hearing his joke, he would definitely laugh out loud, take over the words, and take out the gift.

But judging from Jin Yetian's reaction, he had obviously misjudged the person...
