Becoming an immortal and ancestor begins with the golden toad spitting out money.

Chapter 103 One or Two Secrets, Releasing the News
Before we knew it, it was already the evening of the fifth day of the third lunar month.

Under the escort of the spirit generals who were on a night tour of the City God Temple, Su Ji went to Qili Lake in the east of the city.

Upon closer reflection, Su Ji realized that he had already experienced a great deal in just a few days.

On the path of the Path of Profound Mystery, Su Ji cultivated Yang-type Profound Arts... and became a Path of Profound Mystery Master... Today, near the Seven Aperture Heart Stone, he used Yang-type Profound Arts to [resonate] with three rare and profound fragments.

Once Su Ji has thoroughly comprehended these three rare and profound fragments, his progress in cultivating a mid-grade Yang-type profound technique will reach 10 out of 18.

On the path of Dongzhen, after a series of efforts, Su Ji finally obtained the Five Aperture Heart Stone and the Earth Yang Spiritual Essence stored within it from Mo Linglong.

The purpose of heading to Qili Lake now is to ask Qian Feng to search for the veins of the Yin Earth Spiritual Vein in Mingyue Spiritual Realm.

Just then, with the Night Wandering Spirit General of the City God Temple nearby, Su Ji seized the opportunity to ask, "Night Wandering Spirit General, the Great Sun Spirit Realm gave birth to the Earth Yang Serpent Lord, but has the Earth Yin Spirit Vein of the Bright Moon Spirit Realm ever given birth to an Earth Yin Spirit?"

Su Ji only knew that the Yin Spirit Vein of the Bright Moon Spirit Realm had an entrance to the Yin Mansion Wusheng's hometown, and that there were also special deities stationed there.

"Earth Spirit..."

After a moment's thought, the Night Wanderer nodded and said, "Even spirits born from spiritual veins will gradually age."

“A spirit of the earth was injured before the first year of the Heavenly Emperor’s calendar in this dynasty. More than a hundred years ago, its soul became too old and weak, so it was reincarnated. Its remains became the gateway from the Bright Moon Spirit Realm to the homeland of No Life…”

"Decades ago, the Yin Spirit Vein of the Bright Moon Spirit Realm gave birth to another elf. Although it is only a Cave Profound Mage now, it can use the Yin Spirit Vein to unleash the power of a high-grade spell."

"Given the precedent of the Earthly Yang Serpent King, the City God Temple sent a teacher to personally instruct the Earthly Yin Spirit..."

"Every time the Bright Moon Spirit Realm opens, this Earth Yin Spirit will hide the Earth Yin Spirit Vein, then blend in with the cultivators and play the role of a treasure hunter, engaging in a learning practice with a game-like nature."

"Over the course of seven days, the Earth Spirit may impersonate many different types of cultivators and may make some friends... In the end, it will submit a report to its teacher, the Moon Gate Guardian."

"The Moon Gate Guardian will review the Earth Spirits' answers together with the City God, and use this information to assess their moral character. If any aspect is found to be outside the bounds, it will be corrected..."

If it weren't for the fact that the Golden Toad had performed a great service today because of the Earthly Yang Serpent Lord, thus gaining a certain right to know, the Night Wandering Spirit General really wouldn't have been able to reveal these secrets.

"An earth spirit skilled in illusions... Teacher Moon Gate Guardian..." Su Ji couldn't help but feel a surge of curiosity.

Unfortunately, Su Ji will be very busy for the next two days, and he will probably only have time to enter the Bright Moon Spirit Realm on the last day.

"Thank you for informing me, Night Wanderer!"

Night Wanderer General simply smiled and said, "Even if I didn't say it, with Fellow Daoist Jin's current level of understanding, he could get the answer after returning to the Earth God Temple. We're just talking about something to pass the time on the way!"

The Earth God was the previous Night Wanderer, so he naturally knew these inside stories, but he just didn't have the opportunity to tell them before.

"Fellow Daoist Jin!"

As a familiar shout rang out, a cultivator from the Ren family and an old man flew over from the shore of Qili Lake.

Before the two had even settled down, they bowed and said, "Greetings, Lord Night Wanderer!"

Even though the old man was a Ghost King, the Night Wanderer Spirit General simply nodded and looked at the Seven Mile Lake not far away.

Su Ji then smiled and asked, "Fellow Daoist Ren and this Ghost King Senior, what brings you here?"

The Ren family cultivator nodded and smiled, "My great-uncle is skilled in alchemy. Upon learning that Fellow Daoist Jin had obtained a top-grade spiritual herb, the Flesh Spirit Mushroom, he wished to request a few portions to refine pills..."

The fleshy Ganoderma is about the size of a palm, roughly two inches and six fen long. The "fen" mentioned by the Ren family cultivator refers to its diameter.

Su Ji shook his head and said, "That fleshy spirit mushroom is jointly owned by Fellow Daoist Mo Linglong and me. We haven't decided on the distribution ratio yet, and it's currently stored in the Mo family's villa in Jinfeng County. "However, since Senior Ghost King is interested in the medicine, let's wait a little longer. I will organize an auction on the evening of the eighth day of the third month, and perhaps the fleshy spirit mushroom will be among the auction items..."

The City God's Spirit Realm will be completely closed in the early morning of the ninth day of the third lunar month, while the Great Sun Spirit Realm will be closed at sunset on the eighth day of the third lunar month. Therefore, Su Ji plans to hold an auction in the Ghost Market on the evening of the eighth day of the third lunar month.

"On the evening of the eighth day of the third month..." The Ren family cultivators and the Ghost King of the clan were all moved.

They weren't afraid of spending precious items, but they were worried that the golden toad wouldn't sell the meat-shaped Ganoderma lucidum. Now, at least there was some hope.

So the two Ren family members took their leave, while Su Ji and the Night Wanderer flew towards Seven Mile Lake.

The area above Qili Lake is under the jurisdiction of the City God Temple, while the area in the water is under the jurisdiction of the Qili Lake Water Palace.

Before the two even arrived, they had already alerted the carp spirit, the Water Palace official.

The Night Wanderer Spirit had no intention of entering the Water Palace, so he entrusted Su Ji to the Water Palace Spirit Official and said with a smile, "Water Palace Spirit Official, Fellow Daoist Jin is quite a hot commodity these days, so you'd better take good care of him!"

Leaving aside the significance of being ranked first and second on the City God's Spirit Realm Treasure List, the mere news that Su Ji possesses a top-grade spiritual herb, the Flesh Spirit Mushroom, is enough to draw out a large number of cultivators with aging souls.

The carp spirit, a water deity, repeatedly assured him, "As long as Fellow Daoist Jin doesn't enter the third level or below the bottom of the abyss, there will be no safety issues throughout the entire Seven Mile Lake!"

The Night Wanderer nodded, then watched the group enter the water. He didn't leave, but simply let the night breeze blow across the lake.

This escort mission for the golden toad was not his own idea, but was ordered by the City God himself.

After all, the Golden Toad had just persuaded the Earth Yang Serpent Lord of the Great Sun Spirit Realm. If something were to happen to the Golden Toad before the Earth Yang Spirit Vein had even begun to recover, the Earth Yang Serpent Lord probably wouldn't know what to think.

After waiting for a quarter of an hour, Su Ji finally left the Water Mansion, accompanied by a strong ghost general wearing spirit armor.

A flash of lightning appeared in the eyes of the Night Wanderer, followed by a look of surprise.

The muscular ghost general before them appeared to have an incomplete soul and body, yet his aura was perfectly harmonious. He possessed two souls, one of heaven and earth, but no spiritual spirit or physical spirit was visible.

It should be understood that ordinary people can only retain their Heavenly Soul after death after cultivating their Heavenly Soul and Spirit; only after cultivating their Earthly Soul and Spirit can they retain their Earthly Soul...

After the Water Palace deity who had seen him off departed, the Night Wanderer Spirit General couldn't help but exclaim, "Fellow Daoist Jin has actually managed to find such a prodigy; he truly deserves to be called a seed of the Xuanmen Dao!"

As for the Pearl Maiden beside Qian Feng, Ye Youling had already seen her before and subconsciously ignored her.

Su Ji couldn't help but smile: "Night Wanderer is too kind."

In fact, Su Ji was quite pleased with himself. The more people who were optimistic about Qian Feng, the more correct his investment was.

Qian Feng and Zhu Nu had already received instructions, and they quickly bowed and said, "Greetings, Lord Night Wanderer!"

When their benefactor, the Golden Toad, arrived at Qili Lake, it not only attracted the attention of many demons and ghosts, but also some old monsters who had been around for many years. There were quite a few ghost kings, and even two high-level cultivators.

However, even the Ghost King and Gao Xiu were just ordinary cultivators from Qili Lake. When they saw the Water Palace Spirit Official, the Ghost King and Gao Xiu still had to pay their respects...

Having witnessed this scene, they understood the authority of the divine officials and generals, and dared not neglect the spirit generals who paraded through the City God Temple at night.

Immediately afterwards, Qian Feng and Zhu Nu took the mechanical spirit beast Yuan Yuan to the City God Temple, while the Night Wanderer Spirit continued to escort Su Ji to the Earth God Temple.

They hadn't gone far when the Night Wanderer suddenly stopped.

Suddenly, a flash of lightning appeared in the Night Wanderer's eyes, and he immediately looked in a certain direction in the darkness.
